Teachers’ Years Of Experience, Race/Ethnicity, And Gender As Predictors Of Their Culturally Responsive Classroom Management Self-Efficacy Beliefs: A Correlational Study, Faye Marshall-Sterling
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
The purpose of this quantitative, predictive correlational study is to determine how accurately teachers' culturally responsive classroom management self-efficacy beliefs can be predicted from a linear combination of teachers’ years of experience, race/ethnicity, and gender. The problem related to the proposed quantitative study is that discipline disparities exist in the school milieu, whereby the root cause could be teacher-related variables such as years of experience, race/ethnicity, and gender. The current study used a convenience sample of 103 teachers from social media teacher groups. Critical race theory and Bandura’s (1977) self-efficacy theory provide a theoretical lens from which teachers’ efficacy in …

This study is a mixed-method research design. Participants included 44 undergraduate students recruited from a university in the Southern U.S. Phase 1 included paper-pencil surveys, and Phase 2 consisted of an open-ended questionnaire, which allowed for a deeper understanding of the lived experiences.

The Use Of Self-Efficacy Evaluations, Self-Care Evaluations, And Motivational Interviewing To Improve Glycated Hemoglobin Values In Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Meredith Ann Kelley
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
When improperly managed, type 2 diabetes mellitus is a serious and chronic health condition with far-reaching repercussions for individuals, families, and societies. In the United States, 34.2 million individuals live with diabetes, and 90%-95% have type 2 diabetes. While the United States healthcare system faces the monumental task of improving diabetic care outcomes and associated costs, publications have established that motivational interviewing (MI) can improve self-efficacy and associated self-care behaviors of type 2 diabetics, resulting in improved hemoglobin A1c values. Thus, this scholarly project’s intent was to track participant hemoglobin A1c values over three months, measure participant self-efficacy and self-care …
A Qualitative Phenomenological Study Of Educators' Experiences Of Well-Being At Independent Private Schools, Kristi Breault Combs
A Qualitative Phenomenological Study Of Educators' Experiences Of Well-Being At Independent Private Schools, Kristi Breault Combs
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
The purpose of this qualitative transcendental phenomenological study was to understand educators’ experiences of well-being at independent private schools. The theory guiding this study was Deci and Ryan’s theory on basic psychological needs. It identifies that the basic psychological needs of relatedness, competence, and autonomy are universal and underlay optimal well-being. I used a qualitative transcendental phenomenological approach to seek in-depth information from the participants about their lived experiences of well-being at independent private schools. The central research question was: How do independent private school educators describe their experiences concerning workplace well-being? Sub-questions addressed well-being related to basic psychological needs: …

Provider Knowledge And Confidence With Implementing Pediatric Adverse Childhood Experiences (Aces) Screening Tool In An Alaskan Family Practice Clinic, Lisa Marie Wangberg
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have been known to be associated with negative developmental and long-term health sequalae since Felitti and colleagues (1998) presented their groundbreaking research nearly a quarter of a century ago. Pediatric and primary care settings have been relatively slow to implement any type of ACEs screening at regular intervals such as at well-child exams (WCEs). A scholarly project implementation was used to present ACEs education and screening training to pediatric primary care providers in a small, private, rural family health care practice in Alaska. The goal of the project was to determine if providers felt more knowledgeable …

Evaluating The Impact Of Diversity Training In The Workplace., Vilmarie Lopez
Evaluating The Impact Of Diversity Training In The Workplace., Vilmarie Lopez
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Organizations worldwide have gone global and with that, the workforce demographics have shifted to a more diverse population. Scholars project that within 30 years there will not be a “majority” group in the workplace and these demographic dissimilarities will result in withdrawal behaviors such as tardiness, absenteeism, and employee turnover because employees will not feel identify with any group (David et al., 2015). Therefore, organizations are focusing their efforts on designing strategies and implementing training initiatives in order to train the workforce, not just on diversity awareness, but on how to cope with diversity in the workplace and reduce discrimination …

A veteran is anyone who has served on active duty in one of the five branches of the military, regardless of peacetime or combat exposure. Currently, veterans make up 2.2 million of our nation’s population and the rates of mental health concerns are continually on the rise due to the prolonged nature of Operations Enduring Freedom, Iraqi Freedom, and New Dawn. With the drawdown of forces, the military is smaller than usual and yet must maintain the safety and security of the world at the same standard. Therefore, these service members are recycled over and over to deployments abroad and …

An Investigation Into The Likelihood That A Centrally Planned Economy Can Provide Greater Economic Good Than Spontaneous Order Created By The Free Market, Douglas W. Cardell
An Investigation Into The Likelihood That A Centrally Planned Economy Can Provide Greater Economic Good Than Spontaneous Order Created By The Free Market, Douglas W. Cardell
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
This paper will address whether it is possible for an economy, planned by experts, to result in greater economic good than can be achieved by spontaneous order created by the combination of individual choices that make up the free market? This paper approaches the question by studying the viability of economic forecasting because planning an economy requires making economic forecasts. There are at least three domains that impact forecasting: the nature of forecasting and modeling in general in a chaotic environment, the effect of asset bubbles, and the impact of black swan events.

A Phenomenological Study And Investigation Of Moral Injury With Veterans, Corey V. Douglas
A Phenomenological Study And Investigation Of Moral Injury With Veterans, Corey V. Douglas
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
Moral injury is not a new concept but there are present concerns surrounding the shortage of noted experiences of Veterans having dealt with moral injury. In addition, challenges in agreeing to a general definition and diagnostic criteria for moral injury are acknowledged. The lack of consensus on what is moral injury, diagnosis requirements, and treatment options are likely to complicate matters further in the future. The inability of the mental health industry and providers to determine a concrete foundation encompassing moral injury led to challenges to the delivery of care to individuals dealing with a moral injury such as Veterans …
