Neuropsychological Instruction: A Process Related Approach In Early Reading Skill Development, Karen Boyle Donahue Jan 2011

Neuropsychological Instruction: A Process Related Approach In Early Reading Skill Development, Karen Boyle Donahue

PCOM Psychology Dissertations

Proficient and fluent reading ability for all Americans continues to be a highly prioritized, yet under achieved aspiration in current educational institutions. The acquisition of proficient reading fluency and comprehension are, undoubtedly, the most essential priorities in the academic development of school aged children, yet a discouraging number of students continue to struggle with the reading process throughout school aged years. Research has targeted key instructional areas that must be implemented in successful reading curriculum in the early childhood years. Namely, phonological awareness, phonics instruction, reading fluency, vocabulary development, and reading comprehension are core components that must be incorporated into …

Training Parents Of An Adolescent With Autism Effective Behavior Management Strategies Across Multiple Settings, Kari Porter Jan 2011

Training Parents Of An Adolescent With Autism Effective Behavior Management Strategies Across Multiple Settings, Kari Porter

Research Papers

Research suggests that rearing a child with a developmental disability can be highly stressful and may lead to a heightened risk for child maltreatment. This study demonstrates the utility of a behavioral skills teaching model to train parents to engage their child with autism in adaptive behavior and to manage her disruptions at home, in the car, and in public settings. In some conditions, the experimenter trained the child directly in order to establish control in these settings before attempting to train the parents. Parents were trained through a combination of discussion, video presentation, and guided (shadowed) practice. The results …

Nested Identities: A Concept For Improving Banker Engagement, Glen Weaver Jan 2011

Nested Identities: A Concept For Improving Banker Engagement, Glen Weaver

Student Scholarship

The financial crisis served as an interesting backdrop for this study of the impact of identification upon banker engagement. Studies have shown that leadership style influences employee engagement, but little research reflects the impact of various levels of identity (nested identity) upon engagement. A survey of 511 mid-level bankers displayed the significance of career, organizational, and industry identity upon vigor, dedication, and absorption. Further, it was determined that organizational identity mediated the relationship between leadership and engagement. This research suggests that bank leadership would be wise to enact management tactics that elevate the level of career, organizational, and industry identity …

Thinking About Technology – Standard Bar Codes Beware- Smart Phone Users May Prefer Qr Codes, Darla Jackson

Other Faculty Publications

Quick Response (QR) codes are free to produce, allow access to data, and can be read with most smartphones. QR codes are already popular in some other countries and are gaining popularity in the United States. This article discusses this growing popularity and the reasons for it, how QR codes are being used in law libraries and the legal profession, and how they may be used by librarians in the future to add value through the marketing of professional and library services and by providing easy access to information from library resources.


"Causing The Blood To Flow Where I Touched Him" - Liberalism, Constitutionalism, Christianity, And The "War" At Covey Farm, Anthony V. Baker Jan 2011

"Causing The Blood To Flow Where I Touched Him" - Liberalism, Constitutionalism, Christianity, And The "War" At Covey Farm, Anthony V. Baker

Campbell Law Review

I will begin my critique by going directly to the source here, the famous Philadelphia Constitutional Convention of 1787, and ask us to look somewhat carefully at the work of the "founders" there, in considering the ultimate integrity of the product they fashioned and the world they "created." That they gave us a classical liberal wonder, with tenets of that philosophy writ large in government for the very first time, is undeniable, though it will be submitted that they gave us "something else" as well. It is right for us then to explore that "something else," not abstractly, through ideas, …


From Rosenberger To Martinez: Why The Rise Of Hyper-Modernism Is A Bad Thing For Religious Freedom, Timothy P. Lendino Jan 2011

From Rosenberger To Martinez: Why The Rise Of Hyper-Modernism Is A Bad Thing For Religious Freedom, Timothy P. Lendino

Campbell Law Review

This Comment will argue that what has been flying under the banner of "postmodernism" is actually an intensification of modem paradigms. Moreover, hyper-modernism is not a friend to religious freedom. Instead, the Court held in Martinez that the ideologies of "diversity," "non-discrimination," and "non-commitment" trump religious freedom.' Postmodernists and Christians alike should find this objectionable. Additionally, the Martinez decision raises serious questions about the socalled rise of postmodern thought and its impact, at least in the minds of all nine Supreme Court justices. This decision may only mark the beginning of a rise in hyper-modern Religion Clause jurisprudence. At the …


Initial Design, Manufacture, And Testing Of A Cubelab Module Frame For Biological Payloads Aboard The International Space Station, Twyman Samuel Clements Jan 2011

Initial Design, Manufacture, And Testing Of A Cubelab Module Frame For Biological Payloads Aboard The International Space Station, Twyman Samuel Clements

University of Kentucky Master's Theses

This thesis investigates the design of a CubeLab Module frame to facilitate biological research aboard the International Space Station (ISS). With the National Laboratory designation of the ISS by the United States Congress the barriers for use of the facility have been lowered for commercial and academic entities, allowing greater volume and diversity in the research that can be done. Researchers in biology and other areas could benefit from development and adoption of a plug-and-play payload containment system for use in the microgravity/space environment of the ISS. This research includes design and analysis of such a system. It also includes …
