Resiliency’S Correlations To Autonomy, Competence, Relatedness, And Meaning In Life For The Trucking Industry During Covid-19, Rhonda Renee Wood
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
COVID-19 depleted multiple subsystems, took human lives, impaired mental health, and induced economic devastation. The trucking occupation was and continues to be impacted by adverse working conditions, and the pandemic’s limitations intensified the stress that truckers experience. COVID-19 resilience for trucking employees may stratify to other supply chains. Therefore, the quantitative cross-sectional study aimed to assess the research questions of how meaning in life, autonomy, competence, and relatedness correlated to each other and preceded resilience. The theoretical framework included Viktor Frankl’s meaning in life and Ryan and Deci’s self-determination theories. Connect Cloud Research was the platform for data retrieval from …

Socially Learned Eating Pathology In African American Women (50+): A Narrative Inquiry, Patricia Ann Parker
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
This qualitative narrative study explored the lived experiences of African American women aged 50 and older who self-reported eating pathology and body image dissatisfaction. Disordered eating behaviors, including starvation, binge eating, excessive dieting, and purging, often function as maladaptive coping mechanisms for managing stress, regulating emotions, or responding to traumatic events. The study contributed to the literature by capturing detailed narratives that traced the development of disordered eating behaviors and body image dissatisfaction from early life through adulthood and across the lifespan. Grounded in Albert Bandura’s social cognitive and social learning theories and intersectionality theories, the research employed a robust …

Obstacles For Women In Policing Seeking Leadership Positions, Catina Dukes
Obstacles For Women In Policing Seeking Leadership Positions, Catina Dukes
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Women’s representation in policing has grown throughout time, yet women continue to be underrepresented in policing as well as higher-ranking leadership positions. Despite efforts to increase their representation, many women in policing have yet to receive the proper promotion that they are due over their male counterparts. Further, when women are promoted, they are usually assigned to deal with crimes such as sexual assault, child abuse, human trafficking, and domestic violence against women. While prior research has addressed these gaps, there are a lack of data on the challenges women encounter while working toward leadership positions in the police workforce. …

Religious Identity, Sexual Identity, And Internalized Homophobia In Adults Who Have Deidentified From Christianity, Kevin Roum
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Over the past three decades, the percentage of the United States population that identifies as Christian has dropped significantly. At the same time, the level of acceptance of gay, lesbian, and bisexual identities has increased. However, this overall acceptance does not necessarily lead to an acceptance of these identities within specific Christian communities, leading to gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals having contradictory experiences between their Christian upbringing and secular society. Individuals who no longer identify as Christian after being so raised may experience additional dissonance as their sexuality identity conflicts with the teachings they were raised to believe yet no …
