Perspectives Of Mentors And Mentees Involved In A Special Education Resident Teacher Program, Michelle Landsem Griffin

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to describe the perceptions of three resident teacher/resident mentor pairs in a special education resident teacher program located in a rural Midwest state. The intent of this study was to gain insight into the phenomenon of mentoring as perceived by the resident teachers and resident mentors. Qualitative research methods were used in this phenomenological study, including a brief period of observation, analysis of meeting notes and resident mentor/resident teacher evaluations, and interviews with the three resident mentors and three resident teachers involved in a special education resident teacher program. Data obtained from each participant's …

Bacterial Persistence In Escherichia Coli: Examination Of The Role Of Hipba, Shaleen B. Korch

Theses and Dissertations

Persistence is the ability of a small fraction of bacteria (one-in-a-million) to survive antibiotic exposure, yet the survivors are as susceptible to antibiotic as the parental cells. "High persistence" in Escherichia coli is linked to mutations in hipA, the toxin entity of the toxin-antitoxin module hipBA. The wild type hipA gene encodes a "toxin" while hipB encodes a DNA-binding protein that autoregulates hip operon expression and binds to HipA to nullify its effects. The hipA7 allele confers persistence to 1:100 cells and serves as a model system to study persistence. Wild-type HipA, when in excess of HipB, causes culture growth …

Social Anxiety And The Recognition Of Auditory And Visual Emotional Cues, Ryan D. Hartmann

Theses and Dissertations

Cognitive theory attributes social anxiety to a host of perceptual biases that transform harmless interpersonal stimuli into threats. Socially anxious college students were expected to misinterpret visual and auditory cues of emotion in others more readily than their more confident counterparts. This group of socially anxious men and women were also expected to perceive negative emotion from visual and auditory cues that were determined to be neutral or positive through an external validation process. A total of 16 participants were assigned into each of the four cells of this 2 (gender) by 2 (Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale-Self Report median split) …

Expanding Roles: Paraeducators Providing Health Care To Students In Elementary Schools, Sharon Nelson

Theses and Dissertations

Approximately ten to thirty percent of school aged children have a chronic physical, developmental, behavioral or emotional condition that requires specialized health care and related services. Providing the needed health care is critical in maintaining students' participation and success in school. The enactment of PL 94-142, in 1975, mandated that public schools give children with disabilities the right to a "free and appropriate public education" in the least restrictive environment possible. School nurses are the logical choice to provide the necessary health care in schools. They have the knowledge, expertise, judgement and critical thinking skills inherent in nursing education and …

The Role Of Boron In The Regulation Of Inflammation: Studies In Vivo And In Vitro, Kelly Ann Durick

Theses and Dissertations

I demonstrated here that the presence of physiological amounts of boron was able to prevent the onset of and ameliorate ongoing collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). I also show a mechanism for boron's anti-inflammatory properties, in that boron was able to down regulate a number of pro-inflammatory mediators, all of which are under transcriptional control of NF-κB. Boron-supplemented diets, 2.0 mg B/kg and 12 mg B/kg, rendered CIA susceptible mice significantly more resistant to the onset of clinical arthritis, compared to mice fed boron-deficient chow, or commercial rodent chow. Dietary boron supplementation was also shown to prevent the onset of experimental autoimmune …

Static From Under The Snow, John Early

Theses and Dissertations

Static From Under the Snow, a creative dissertation, is a collection of poems that discusses perceptions of culture and identity. The manuscript employs a framing poem to open this inquiry into how culture produces an identity that isn't always what it appears to be. The narrator invites an unnamed Asian woman (who, as an immigrant, has expressed a desire to be a part of the dominant white, patriarchal culture) to accompany him as he shows her how he became the man he is, and the resultant disappointment and anger. He invites her to listen to the many voices (poems) that …

Laboratory -Induced Aggression Among Participants With And Without A History Of Alcohol -Related Aggression, Matthew D. Bailly

Theses and Dissertations

The effects of alcohol-related and mixed alcohol and non-alcohol-related histories of aggression on aggressive responding in the laboratory were investigated using the Point Subtraction Aggression Paradigm (PSAP). Forty-five male college students were selected for participation in the present study using a questionnaire consisting of modified items from the Buss-Durkee Hostility Inventory (BDHI; Buss & Durkee, 1957) and Overt Aggression Scale (OAS; Yudofsky et al., 1986) that allowed for assignment to an alcohol-related, mixed, or no history of aggression control condition. Participants performed four 25-minute PSAP sessions in sequence during one laboratory visit. The short version of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality …

Beliefs And Values Of K–12 Teachers Underlying The Grading Process In North Dakota Small Rural Schools, Keith H. Gustafson

Theses and Dissertations

Research has shown that the grades teachers assign to students have been increasing in value, whereas the achievement measured by the grades has remained the same. There is great variability reported in the current literature concerning the grading practices of teachers. There is no consensus about what grades should mean, what reference base should be used for comparability, or the extent to which the grades assigned should correlate with the students' performances on national achievement tests. The purpose of the study was to gather information about general education teachers' beliefs and values regarding the criteria that should be used in …

Validation Of A Quantitative Measure To Assess Schema Content Associated With Social Anxiety, Jennifer R. Brendle

Theses and Dissertations

Many cognitive theories of anxiety suggest that anxious individuals are characterized by maladaptive schemata, such that they focus their attention on and make biased interpretations of perceived threat material (e.g., Beck & Emery, 1985, Bower, 1981). In addition, cognitive theories of social phobia, in particular, posit that socially anxious individuals demonstrate attentional and interpretation biases when confronted with signals of social danger or threat as a result of maladaptive schemata (e.g., Beck & Emery, 1985; Clark & Wells, 1995; Rapee & Heimberg, 1997). Although these models all propose that maladaptive schemata result in faulty information processing which leads to the …

Many Are The Deceivers, Cassie Worley

Theses

This thesis examines the adaptations and disseminations of ancient and modern dominant Western Parables. It investigates both Biblical myths and fairy tales, as they are used as socializing tools, which set standards in Western culture, and prescribe conventions to our children. Within the thesis, themes from Little Red Riding Hood will be extrapolated, and compared to those found in Old Testament tales such as, The Expulsion from Eden, the Deluge, The Ten Plagues, and Exodus. Throughout the thesis, the history and function of the myth and fairy tale will be defined, and questions will be raised regarding the role of …
