Disclosing Sexual Assault Victimization To Others, Nicole S. Shea
Disclosing Sexual Assault Victimization To Others, Nicole S. Shea
Honors Theses
Previous research has demonstrated that victims of sexual assault disclose their assaults most frequently to members of their intimate social circle. Unfortunately, some friends and family members give support in ways that are perceived as unhelpful by victims. The present study found that victims' reports and non-victims' expectations of positive support after disclosure differed significantly. These results indicate that significant efforts are needed to change the campus culture by increasing support for sexual assault victims.
Youth Violence In Harrison County, Mississippi, Ashley Rushing
Youth Violence In Harrison County, Mississippi, Ashley Rushing
Honors Theses
Youth violence plagues school communities and has traumatic effects on students, families, and communities (Affonso, Mayberry, Shibuya, Archambeau, Correa, Deliramich, & Frueh, 2010). Even though the rate of crime has declined, children have continued to increase the rates of violent acts (Funk, Elliot, Bechtoldt, Pasold, & Tsavoussis, 2003). Today, violent behaviors are being exhibited at an earlier age than ever before. Tragedies stemmed from youth violence occur almost daily in the United States. Between 1986 and 1991, slayings committed by teenagers, who had shown bullying tendencies as children, rose 124 percent. In 1992, 3,400 people were killed nationwide by teen …
Libertarian Acceptance Among The Students Of The University Of Southern Mississippi, Joseph Lebeau
Libertarian Acceptance Among The Students Of The University Of Southern Mississippi, Joseph Lebeau
Honors Theses
How can a potential libertarian portion of USM students be differentiated from the conservative and liberal segments? The most obvious method is to classify students by their respective demographic factors. Demographic categories such as gender, race, age, religion, field of study, etc. could prove to be extremely useful when attempting to identify patterns in populations. The connections between these variables and political ideology are further examined in the literature review. The demographics of a potential libertarian faction have yet to be defined, specifically at the University of Southern Mississippi. Therefore, the goal of my research will be to first locate …

Life Without Parole: The Influence Of Age And Race On The Sentencing Of Juvenile Offenders, Maria Annabel Mireles
Life Without Parole: The Influence Of Age And Race On The Sentencing Of Juvenile Offenders, Maria Annabel Mireles
Psychology Theses
In 2010, the Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional to sentence adolescents charged with non-homicide crimes to life without parole (Graham v. Florida, 2012). Currently, research regarding life without parole is assessed in conjunction with the death penalty, in which life without parole is proposed as a lesser alternative to the death penalty. The current study investigated whether age and race are predictive factors in sentencing juvenile offenders. A sample consisting of 225 undergraduate students were presented with one of six case scenarios adapted from Wilkins v. Missouri (1985) in which the defendant’s age (13, 15, 17) and race …
Financing Higher Education: Privatization, Resistance And Renewal, Gerald Turkel
Financing Higher Education: Privatization, Resistance And Renewal, Gerald Turkel
Journal of Collective Bargaining in the Academy
The fiscal crisis of higher education currently is being resolved largely through a financing policy of privatization, a pattern that increasingly shifts responsibility to individual students and their families. The politics of privatization makes it ever more difficult for lower-income students to attend college and has become a major financial burden for middle-income people. Beyond the direct financial consequences, privatization has increasingly subordinated the research and educational missions of higher education to the countervailing imperatives of economic growth and competitiveness. Privatization has enhanced the entrepreneurial and corporate features of universities and colleges, increasingly shifting the values of higher education away …

The social science department at Gardner-Webb recently planted a white ash tree to honor Dr. Tony Eastman, retired professor of American history, behind Frank Nanney Hall. In a special presentation, the tree, like Eastman’s character and his lasting impact on Gardner-Webb students, was said to be “deeply rooted and ever growing.” Eastman taught for 45 years at Gardner-Webb, and retired as the University’s longest-tenured professor.

Parallel Session: Effects Of Bollywood Blockbusters On Crime Scene In Pakistani Society, Erum Hafeez Aslam
Parallel Session: Effects Of Bollywood Blockbusters On Crime Scene In Pakistani Society, Erum Hafeez Aslam
International Conference on Marketing
This study aims at examining the increasing popularity of Bollywood films in Pakistani market and its dynamic effects on various segments of Pakistani society such as criminals and victims. It primarily analyzes the contribution of Bollywood blockbusters to the demography of violent criminals and silent victims in real crime scene of the country across the four decades (i.e. 1970s, 80s, 90s & 2000s). It is arbitrarily assumed that violence is often projected on silver screen as a quick and easy remedy to social injustice and class discrimination in the blockbusters of Bollywood and Lollywood.

Young Black Children's Representations Of The Father Figure In Low-Income Households, Shawnae Shalae Thompson
Young Black Children's Representations Of The Father Figure In Low-Income Households, Shawnae Shalae Thompson
Honors Scholar Theses
This study investigated the cognitive-emotional schemas surrounding the father role in 50 young, low-income, Black children in relation to the amount of father involvement in the first 5 years of their lives. These representations were framed within four parenting categories: Nice, Mean, Authoritative, and Authoritarian. Diana Baumrind’s parenting style framework was utilized to create the Authoritative and Authoritarian parenting categories. This question was investigated in low-income families; the impact of gender of the child was also considered. Information on fathers’ involvements in the children’s lives were gathered through interviews and self-reports from the children’s fathers and mothers. Story Stem Narrative …
Environmental Justice & Sociology, Brenna E. Regan
Environmental Justice & Sociology, Brenna E. Regan
Honors Scholar Theses
This thesis compared the patterns influencing the creation of Native American reservations and the prison industrial complex in the United States. I argue that the country is controlled by people who create a physical and socio-political environment that caters to their certain positionality, adversely effecting and pushing marginalized groups into confined, controlled spaces in their own home. Ultimately, environmental justice, or equal control of people over their environment, is a vital factor in ending structural and physical violence against marginalized groups in the United States.
