Adolescent Mothers: Youth In Need Of Developmentally Appropriate Services, Patricia Arlyne Zimmerman Nov 2006

Adolescent Mothers: Youth In Need Of Developmentally Appropriate Services, Patricia Arlyne Zimmerman

Dissertations and Theses

This research examines the childhood abuse and maltreatment experiences of adolescent mothers (age 14 to 17) to investigate if these experiences have hindered their socioemotional development and consequently, their parenting behaviors and attitudes. Data were gathered using four standardized self-report instruments: the Child Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), the Trauma Symptom Checklist for Children (TSCC), the BarOn Emotional Quotient Inventory-Youth Version (EQi-YV), and the Adult Adolescent Parenting Inventory (AAPI-2). Two additional questionnaires were developed to gather demographic and social service information to add to the knowledge base of the field, and to examine what (if any) developmentally focused services young mothers may …

Intellectual Property And Competition – Human Economic Universals, Wolfgang Fikentscher Nov 2006

Intellectual Property And Competition – Human Economic Universals, Wolfgang Fikentscher

The Gruter Institute Working Papers on Law, Economics, and Evolutionary Biology

My contribution to this workshop is an approach to answering the question whether property, in particular intellectual property, and competition for the acquisition of such property, are innate building blocks of human behavior “deep in our brain” and inherited characteristics of our human nature, or whether they are cultural attitudes and abilities which we have to learn because we are not born with it. In the first case we would call them human universals, in the second cultural specificities. Also, a way has to be shown how we can know the one or the other.


Trust, Paul Joseph Zak Nov 2006

Trust, Paul Joseph Zak

The Gruter Institute Working Papers on Law, Economics, and Evolutionary Biology

Trust pervades every aspect of our daily lives, from business transactions to dealings with loved-ones, yet why we trust others in some instances but not others is little understood. At an aggregate level, surveys of trustworthiness show enormous differences across countries, from 3% in Brazil to 65% in Norway. This article reports on new research that has characterized the legal, social, economic, and environmental factors that cause trust to be high or low. It also reports on laboratory experiments that demonstrate that trust has a neurophysiological basis. This research shows that low trust is a fundamental cause of poverty, but …

Defining The Components Of Academic Self-Efficacy In Navajo American Indian High School Students, Thomas R. Golightly Nov 2006

Defining The Components Of Academic Self-Efficacy In Navajo American Indian High School Students, Thomas R. Golightly

Theses and Dissertations

The academic difficulties experienced by a majority of Navajo American Indian students are well documented. Past research has focused on a variety of internal and external factors which possibly explain some of these difficulties. Low levels of academic self-efficacy (ASE) has been identified as one of the factors possibly contributing to lower than expected rates of academic achievement and low post-secondary education retention rates in this population. This investigation sought to further define the component structures of ASE using theoretical structures postulated by Bandura (1977a, 1997), namely: past success, modeling, verbal persuasion, and emotional arousal. Information about grade point averages …

Social Learning Theory As A Model For Illegitimate Peer-To-Peer Use And The Effects Of Implementing A Legal Music Downloading Service On Peer-To-Peer Music Piracy, Nathan Fisk Nov 2006

Social Learning Theory As A Model For Illegitimate Peer-To-Peer Use And The Effects Of Implementing A Legal Music Downloading Service On Peer-To-Peer Music Piracy, Nathan Fisk

Theses

In an attempt to both provide added services to students and help curb the growing problem of music piracy on college campuses, many universities have implemented legal digital music services. The Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) was one of these universities, where the Cdigix Ctrax service is provided to students. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of such a strategy, Information Technology Services (ITS) at RIT requested the services of Dr. Samuel McQuade, who administered a Webbased survey to all Ctrax users and an equal number of randomly selected non-Ctrax using students at RIT. In total, 447 students responded to …


Dignity And Degradation: Transnational Lessons From The Constitutional Protection Of Sex, Libby Adler Nov 2006

Dignity And Degradation: Transnational Lessons From The Constitutional Protection Of Sex, Libby Adler

ExpressO

This paper begins by tracing the history of the concept of human dignity from the time of Cicero through the Enlightenment, to the aftermath of WW II. It then examines the contemporary constitutional concept across multiple national jurisdictions, focusing on cases related to sex. Ultimately, the paper urges that while dignity has been regarded as an overarching value that promises to protect all human beings against threats to the most fundamental of human rights, it instead produces undesirable hierarchies and demeans a range of sexual practices that pro-sex feminists and queers want to see constitutionally protected.
