Choosing Truth: The Influence Of Function, Institutions, And Global Culture On The Establishment Of Truth And Reconciliation Commissions, Claire B. Posner Apr 2008

Choosing Truth: The Influence Of Function, Institutions, And Global Culture On The Establishment Of Truth And Reconciliation Commissions, Claire B. Posner

Sociology Honors Projects

This study explores Truth and Reconciliation Commissions (TRCs) in post-conflict societies by testing three different theoretical explanations for their establishment. The first approach is grounded in functionalist theory in which the functional needs of the post-conflict society are seen as the most influential factor. The second approach emphasizes how institutional factors constrain the options available to post-conflict societies. The last approach argues that global culture determines whether or not a post-conflict society will establish a TRC. To determine which of these approaches is accurate I used qualitative comparative analysis to compare twenty different post-conflict societies on a number of variables. …


A Study Of Faculty Perceptions Of The Use Of Student Evaluations Of Teaching In Faculty Assessments, Promotion And Tenure Decisions, Judith Kanegita Cineas Apr 2008

A Study Of Faculty Perceptions Of The Use Of Student Evaluations Of Teaching In Faculty Assessments, Promotion And Tenure Decisions, Judith Kanegita Cineas

Graduate Student Dissertations, Theses, Capstones, and Portfolios

The relationship between student evaluations of teaching (SET), grade inflation, and faculty assessments, promotion and tenure (FAPT) decisions is an issue that has received much attention in the past 30-40 years. The literature speculates that the use of SET ratings in FAPT decisions has resulted in faculty giving students higher grades to secure higher SET. This trend, it is held, has contributed to grade inflation, which decreases the reliability of assessing teaching effectiveness using student grades since they are not reflective of actual learning. It also decreases the validity of SET as an evaluation method if inflated grades are yielding …

Theses and Dissertations

The purposes of this investigation were to (a) explore the relationship between jury verdicts when traumatic brain injury expert testimony is provided and (b) examine the relationship between the verdicts when battered women syndrome expert witness testimony is provided, in Rowan University undergraduate students (N = 100). Students were provided with experimental packets, read a mock legal case, answered four questionnaires, and conducted a mock jury deliberation. Students indicated their verdicts were of lesser severity when there was traumatic brain injury expert witness testimony when compared to battered women syndrome expert witness testimony. Analysis of variance statistics indicated that expert …
