A Multi-Level Study Investigating The Impact Of Workplace Civility Climate On Incivility And Employee Well-Being, Raymond Charles Ottinot
A Multi-Level Study Investigating The Impact Of Workplace Civility Climate On Incivility And Employee Well-Being, Raymond Charles Ottinot
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
This study used Zohar‟s (2000) multi-level model of climate to examine the extent to which shared perceptions of workplace civility climate relate to teacher job satisfaction, affective commitment, and counterproductive work behaviors (CWB-abuse) towards other teachers. Workplace civility climate is defined as employee perceptions of how management uses policies, procedures, and practices to maintain a civil workplace. An online-survey was used to assess a cross-sectional sample of K-12 teachers (N = 2222) nested in 207 schools in a large US school district. There was adequate agreement among teacher perceptions of school civility climate for aggregation and between-group variance of civility …

The Israeli Armored Paradigm In The Yom Kippur War: An Evaluation, Joseph C. Leonhardt
The Israeli Armored Paradigm In The Yom Kippur War: An Evaluation, Joseph C. Leonhardt
Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects
The Yom Kippur War of 1973 saw Israel suffer nearly twice the casualties and triple the duration of the previous war. This is in contradiction to the fact that Israel, following its spectacular success in the Six-Day War of 1967, was in a far better position than it had been in 1967. This work will analyze the problem of Armor preeminence in the Israeli Defense Force first to prove the existence of preeminence, then to qualify its effect in the war and then to qualify its importance in the differing factors between the 1967 and 1973 Wars. This will be …

Principals' Opinions On The Impact Of High-Stakes Testing On Teaching And Learning In The Public Elementary Schools In The State Of Utah, Raylene Jo Hadley
Principals' Opinions On The Impact Of High-Stakes Testing On Teaching And Learning In The Public Elementary Schools In The State Of Utah, Raylene Jo Hadley
Theses and Dissertations
The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) brought high-stakes testing to the forefront of American public education. With its call for teachers and schools to be accountable for academic performance, NCLB has focused the spotlight on yearly progress, as measured by students' test scores. Issues associated with this charge include the questionable reliability of tests, the variation evident in state standards, and the consequences an emphasis on high-stakes testing may have on teaching and learning in the classroom. The purpose of this study was to investigate the consequences of high-stakes testing on teaching and learning in public elementary …

And Justice For All: Developing Rule Of Law In The Balkans, Ryan M. Lowry
And Justice For All: Developing Rule Of Law In The Balkans, Ryan M. Lowry
Department of Political Science: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
The United Nations created the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia to bring to justice those who had committed the worst crimes during the conflicts in the Balkans during the 1990s. From the outset, this institution was envisioned to temporarily process indicted war criminals. The domestic courts in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, and Serbia were seen as being corrupt and ill equipped to handle such cases; rule of law was absent or severely lacking in these countries. As the Tribunal winds down, however, both international and domestic actors have emphasized the need to strengthen their judicial systems that will create a …
Examining Early And Recent Criticism Of The Waste Land: A Reassessment, Tyler E. Anderson
Examining Early And Recent Criticism Of The Waste Land: A Reassessment, Tyler E. Anderson
Department of English: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
My thesis will closely examine recent trends in criticism of "The Waste Land," namely the ideological rebuttal against the New Critics proposed by recent historicists such as Lawrence Rainey. I will show that Rainey has unfairly characterized the so-called New Critics as supporting a reading of the poem that only sees it for a work of order and unity while in fact they acknowledged many organizational inconsistencies within the text. A central tenet of my thesis will be that ideological characterizations of earlier critics should never substitute actual close readings of the texts themselves. My findings will lead to broader …

“Did You Call Me?” 5-Month-Old Infants Own Name Guides Their Attention, Eugenio Parise, Angela D. Friederici, Tricia Striano
Publications and Research
An infant's own name is a unique social cue. Infants are sensitive to their own name by 4 months of age, but whether they use their names as a social cue is unknown. Electroencephalogram (EEG) was measured as infants heard their own name or stranger's names and while looking at novel objects. Event related brain potentials (ERPs) in response to names revealed that infants differentiate their own name from stranger names from the first phoneme. The amplitude of the ERPs to objects indicated that infants attended more to objects after hearing their own names compared to another name. Thus, by …

Facial Expression Discriminates Between Pain And Absence Of Pain In The Non-Communicative, Critically Ill Adult Patient, Mamoona Arif-Rahu
Facial Expression Discriminates Between Pain And Absence Of Pain In The Non-Communicative, Critically Ill Adult Patient, Mamoona Arif-Rahu
Theses and Dissertations
BACKGROUND: Pain assessment is a significant challenge in critically ill adults, especially those unable to communicate their pain level. At present there is no universally accepted pain scale for use in the non-communicative (cognitively impaired, sedated, paralyzed or mechanically ventilated) patient. Facial expressions are considered among the most reflexive and automatic nonverbal indices of pain. The facial expression component of pain assessment tools include a variety of facial descriptors (wincing, frowning, grimacing, smile/relaxed) with inconsistent pain intensity ratings or checklists of behaviors. The lack of consistent facial expression description and quantification of pain intensity makes standardization of pain evaluation difficult. …

Examining The Complex Nature Of Emotion, Metacognition, And Study-Time In Multimedia Learning, Amber Dawn Chauncey
Electronic Theses and Dissertations Archive
Learning with multimedia is challenging and often requires learners to regulate cognitive, metacognitive, and affective processes in order achieve optimal learning. The purpose of the current study was to examine the effect of induced emotional states on learners’ metacognitive monitoring and control, and learning performance in a self-paced multimedia learning environment. A within-subjects design and a false-biofeedback paradigm were used to induce various emotional states in 50 undergraduate participants while they answered both text-based and inference questions about the human circulatory system. Across 24 trials, participants were presented with accelerated, baseline, and no heart rates (control) and were asked to …

A Cognitive Model Of College Choice And The Influence Of Visual-Verbal Redundancy In Student Recruitment Messages, Tracy Rutledge
A Cognitive Model Of College Choice And The Influence Of Visual-Verbal Redundancy In Student Recruitment Messages, Tracy Rutledge
Electronic Theses and Dissertations Archive
Two studies investigated a cognitive model of college choice and the effect of visual-verbal redundancy in student recruitment messages on the decision factors. The proposed model integrated the college choice model (Hossler & Gallagher, 1987) with the effortful decision-making and enactment model (Bagozzi, Dholakia, & Basuroy, 2003) and contained 14 latent variables: goal feasibility, positive anticipated emotions, negative anticipated emotions, decision process importance, decision process effort investment, decision process confidence, subjective norm, attitude, perceived behavioral control, goal desire, goal intention, behavioral desire, behavioral intention, and plan enactment. The model was tested on self-report data from students in three high schools …

An Exploratory Study Into The Impact Of Work Design On The Self-Efficacy Of Workers With Low Literacy Skills, Michael Kenneth Holt
Electronic Theses and Dissertations Archive
As trends in the labor market indicate growing worker shortages, the problem of incorporating workers with low literacy skills into the workplace becomes more important. There are significant numbers of low literate workers in the labor market who pose hard dollar costs on business and society due to literacy related mistakes.Organizations have been moving toward more participative work designs in efforts to attract and maintain satisfied and motivated workforces. There are significant skill sets required to become successful team members. Many of these skills are outlined in management literature, but one glaring oversight is dealing with the issue of low …
As An Educator And Educational Researcher, How Do I Improve What I Am Doing And Contribute To Educational Theories That Carry Hope For The Future Of Humanity?, Jack Whitehead
i.e.: inquiry in education
What I want to share in this contribution to education inquiry are some insights from my educational research programme between 1973-2010 about the kind of educational theories that can explain the educational influence of an individual in their own learning, in the learning of others and in the learning of the social formations in which we live and work. These insights are focused on: i) The desire of educators to account to themselves and others for living as fully as possible the ontological values they use to give meaning and purpose to their lives in their vocation of education. ii) …
