Assessing The Uptake Of Biosimilar Insulin Glargine Among Physicians For The Treatment Of Diabetes In South Africa, Euganthri Pillay
Assessing The Uptake Of Biosimilar Insulin Glargine Among Physicians For The Treatment Of Diabetes In South Africa, Euganthri Pillay
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
In South Africa, diabetes is a serious problem where 1 in 9 adults has diabetes, making it the country with the highest diabetes prevalence on the African continent. Even though insulin is an absolute necessity for treating diabetes, it is unaffordable to millions. Biosimilar insulins, however, are innovative medicines that are similar but not exact copies of the originator insulin, making alternative treatment affordable to patients. The problem is that, in South Africa, it is still not known whether patients have access to biosimilar insulin in a country where diabetes is rampant. The diffusion of innovation theory was used to …

Formerly Incarcerated Women Describe Study Habit Challenges Within Adult Education Programs, Milan Kiana Williams
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Transitioning back into society successfully after incarceration comes with its downfalls, but educational support could potentially address transitional success, especially for formerly incarcerated women. Previous research mainly focused on exploring education options and recidivism outcomes for formerly incarcerated men. There is limited research regarding formerly incarcerated women and their educational needs within adult education programs. The purpose of this qualitative inquiry study was to describe study habit challenges for formerly incarcerated women within adult education programs. A further aim was to develop educational recommendations to promote successful study habits and potentially further educational attainment for formerly incarcerated women. Malcolm Knowles’ …

Exploring Associations Between Poverty, Race/Ethnicity, Gender, And Childhood Obesity In Cherokee County, South Carolina, Lillie Mae Hall
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Childhood obesity (CHO) rates have increased significantly worldwide over the last decade.

Splitting Attraction: A Phenomenological Study Of Coming Out With Discordant Sexual And Romantic Orientations Among Adults, Kayla Mangen
Splitting Attraction: A Phenomenological Study Of Coming Out With Discordant Sexual And Romantic Orientations Among Adults, Kayla Mangen
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
In discussions of attraction, most assume that one term applies to both sexual and romantic attraction and thus is all that one needs. However, for a group of individuals within the LGBTQ+ population, attraction varies between romantic and sexual, and therefore these individuals require multiple terms to accurately express their identities. Coming out is the process by which an individual expresses their identity both to themselves and to others. While much is known about this process, little is known about how identifying with different, or discordant, sexual and romantic orientations affects this process. The purpose of this phenomenological study was …

The Lived Experience Of Parents With Newborns In The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (Nicu): A Heuristic Inquiry, Abigail Bilyk
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Parents with newborns who require medical care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) immediately following birth are at an increased risk of experiencing psychological distress. While quantitative research studies have determined that a NICU admission can have detrimental effects on parents, a better understanding of the lived experience for both mothers and fathers is necessary to ensure adequacy in the standard of care given to parents while their newborn is admitted to the NICU. The phenomenon has not previously been explored using the phenomenological approach of heuristic inquiry. Constructivism, social constructivism, and the transactional model of stress and coping …
