Multidisciplinary Considerations For Clinical Work With The Multiracial Identity : A Project Based Upon An Independent Investigation, Kate Lee De Soto
Multidisciplinary Considerations For Clinical Work With The Multiracial Identity : A Project Based Upon An Independent Investigation, Kate Lee De Soto
Theses, Dissertations, and Projects
This project was conducted with the intentions of broadening the discussion that is occurring in clinical fields regarding the multiracial identity. Much of the discussion that occurs is treated as though racial dynamics are fixed (Leary, 2000). This theoretical paper aims to exemplify the nuance of the multiracial identity by combining clinical theory with a more culturally grounded analysis of racial discourse. Intersubjectivity theory is used in this paper to exemplify the value of using a clinical theory when conceptualizing racial issues, while cultural studies provides a deeper understanding of the system of race in the United States. The use …

American Studies ETDs
This dissertation is the story of the destruction of Indian families as told to Congress in hearings held by the Sub-Committee on Indian Affairs in 1974 and the Select Committee on Indian Affairs in 1977 through the testimony of children, parents, Indian leadership, the Association on American Indian Affairs, psychological witnesses, and other advocates who opposed destructive child welfare practices. Their testimony described the illegal removal of Indian children, the exploitation of families through violation of their due process rights, the tragedy of children who were abused and neglected in placement, the psychological damage suffered by the children and their …

From The Pacific Northwest To The Global Information Society: The Changing Nature Of Archival Education, Randall C. Jimerson
Journal of Western Archives
This essay examines the development of archival education in the United States during the past forty years, in context of the increasingly globalized archival profession of the early twenty-first century. In doing so, it presents a case study of one of the first West Coast archival education programs and its development from a regional program to an international one.

Analysis Of Alternative Methods For Long-Term Wind Speed And Initial Site Assessment For Purposes Of Wind Energy Production Estimation, Ryan Mcdevitt
Analysis Of Alternative Methods For Long-Term Wind Speed And Initial Site Assessment For Purposes Of Wind Energy Production Estimation, Ryan Mcdevitt
Theses and Dissertations
A need exists for identification and evaluation of viable sites for wind energy. However, this is made difficult by the site-specific nature of the wind. A review of current industry practices shows that linear regression is the preferred method, although little work has been done to investigate alternative approaches. To address this, various methods were tested on 23 target sites with data measured over a long-term period. Each site was analyzed with the chosen best reference station, across 10 data periods for each method with results classified as mean absolute percentage error in energy density between the projected and measured …

Hydrophilanthropy, Wash, And Experiential Learning In Developing Countries, Michael E. Campana
Hydrophilanthropy, Wash, And Experiential Learning In Developing Countries, Michael E. Campana
Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education
Two different and unrelated programs are described, one undergraduate and one graduate, that: 1) introduced students to water research and WASH (water, sanitation, and hygiene) issues in developing countries; 2) injected developing countries' WASH issues into a university graduate water resources program; and 3) introduced hydrophilanthropy, defined as the altruistic concern for the water, sanitation, and related needs of humankind, as manifested by donations of labor, money, or resources. From 2002 through 2004, a National Science Foundation summer Research Experience for Undergraduates program hosted by University of Notre Dame with University of Nevada-Reno and University of New Mexico took undergraduates …

They'll Expect More Bad Things From Us.: Latino/A Youth Constructing Identities In A Racialized High School In New Mexico', Chalane E. Lechuga
Sociology ETDs
This research explores how Latino/a high school students in New Mexico constitute their racial identities in this particular historical moment, the post-Civil Rights colorblind era. I explore what their chosen nomenclatures and employed discourses suggest about the relationship between their racial identities and academic achievement. The research questions are: How do Latino/a youth articulate their expressions of racial identity in the post-Civil Rights colorblind era? What discourses or nomenclatures do they employ? How are these discourses distinguished from one another? What do their expressions of racial identity suggest about the relationship between racial identity and gender? What may their expressions …

The Black Barbershop : Intersections Of Sexuality, Masculinity And Gender Expressions : A Project Based Upon An Independent Investigation, Antwan Vernard Nedd
Theses, Dissertations, and Projects
This qualitative study examines to what extent African American gay males who frequent the black barbershop share in their expressions of sexuality and masculinity while in the barbershop. The study further investigates the influence of the black barbershop on African American gay males and their comfort with expressing their masculinity and sexuality in this setting and the notion that the black barbershop functions as a microcosm of the black community, by reinforcing heterosexist philosophies. The participants, eight self-identified African American gay men, were recruited by word-of-mouth and snowball sampling. The researcher administered a demographic survey and interviewed participants about their …
Job Instability And Family Planning: Insights From The Italian Puzzle, Fabio Sabatini
Job Instability And Family Planning: Insights From The Italian Puzzle, Fabio Sabatini
Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers
This paper carries out an investigation into the socio-economic determinants of couples’ childbearing decisions in Italy. Since having children is in most cases a “couple matter”, the analysis accounts for the characteristics of both the possible parents. Our results do not support established theoretical predictions according to which the increase in the opportunity cost of motherhood connected to higher female labour participation is responsible for the fall in fertility. On the contrary, the instability of the women’s work status (i.e. their being occasional, precarious, and low-paid workers) reveals to be a significant dissuasive deterrent discouraging the decision to have children. …

The Solaria Syndrome: Social Capital In A Growing Hyper-Technological Economy, Angelo Antoci, Fabio Sabatini, Mauro Sodini
The Solaria Syndrome: Social Capital In A Growing Hyper-Technological Economy, Angelo Antoci, Fabio Sabatini, Mauro Sodini
Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers
We develop a dynamic model to analyze the sources and the evolution of social participation and social capital in a growing economy characterized by exogenous technical progress. Starting from the assumption that the well-being of agents basically depends on material and relational goods, we show that the best-case scenarios hold when technology and social capital both support just one of the two productions at the expenses of the other. However, trajectories are possible where technology and social interaction balance one another in fostering the growth of both the social and the private sector of the economy. Along such tracks, technology …

Sanders-Brown Center on Aging Faculty Publications
Reduced brain levels of docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6n-3), a neurotrophic and neuroprotective fatty acid, may contribute to cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease. Here, we investigated whether the liver enzyme system that provides docosahexaenoic acid to the brain is dysfunctional in this disease. Docosahexaenoic acid levels were reduced in temporal cortex, mid-frontal cortex and cerebellum of subjects with Alzheimer's disease, compared to control subjects (P = 0.007). Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores positively correlated with docosahexaenoic/α-linolenic ratios in temporal cortex (P = 0.005) and mid-frontal cortex (P = 0.018), but not cerebellum. Similarly, liver docosahexaenoic acid content was lower in Alzheimer's …
