First-Year College Women's Motivations For Hooking Up: A Mixed-Methods Examination Of Normative Peer Perceptions And Personal Hookup Participation, Shannon R. Kenney, Vandana Thadani, Tehniat Ghaidarov, Joseph W. Labrie
Psychological Science Faculty Works
This study used content analysis techniques to explore 221 first-year college women's perceptions of female peers’ reasons (i.e., normative perceptions) for hooking up. Data on personal participation in hooking up were also collected. The well-established Drinking Motives Questionnaire (Cooper, 1994) was used as a framework for coding positive (enhancement or social) and negative (coping or conformity) normative hookup motivations. Participants most commonly indicated that enhancement reasons motivated peers’ hookup behaviors (69.7%). Coping (23.5%), external (21.7%), social (19.5%), and conformity (16.3%) motives were cited less frequently. Furthermore, women who had hooked up since matriculating into college (61.5%, n = 136) were …

The Parts Of Prudence And Scientific Solutions For Weakness Of Will, Christopher Kaczor
The Parts Of Prudence And Scientific Solutions For Weakness Of Will, Christopher Kaczor
Philosophy Faculty Works
This essay outlines a view of practical wisdom drawing on the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas. In it, I discuss the presuppositions of practical wisdom, namely the ordering to the end of true human happiness. Next, the focus shifts to the “parts” or elements of practical wisdom in order to highlight the intellectual aspects of practical wisdom as a cognitive perfection. Finally, the essay addresses prudence as practical, the actual carrying out of the right deed, at the right time and in the right way. Here, the conclusion of the essay considers the findings of contemporary science in the search …

Creative Soups For The Soul: Stories Of Community Recovery In Talca, Chile, After The 2010 Earthquake, Einat Metzl
Marital & Family Therapy/Art Therapy Faculty Work
This study, conducted in Talca, Chile, a year and a half after a massive natural disaster, focused on creative thinking and art production as manifestations of resilience. Purposive sampling was used to recruit participants through community leaders and programs. Ten survivors whose houses were damaged or destroyed during the 2010 earthquake were willing to participate in semi-structured interviews that included verbal narratives and an art response. Systematic analysis illuminated conscious and latent psychological content. Three overarching themes were identified as central to survivors' recovery process and were then contrasted with data from New Orleans after hurricane Katrina, exploring universality and …

Understanding Spawning Behavior And Habitat Use By Anadromous Rainbow Smelt (Osmerus Mordax) Using Passive Integrated Transponder Systems And Telemetry, Claire L. Enterline
Understanding Spawning Behavior And Habitat Use By Anadromous Rainbow Smelt (Osmerus Mordax) Using Passive Integrated Transponder Systems And Telemetry, Claire L. Enterline
Master's Theses and Capstones
Rainbow smelt (Osmerus mordax) are anadromous fish that spawn in coastal streams and rivers and provide an important prey base to many marine predators. Populations range-wide have experienced severe decline possibly due to habitat degradation and loss of spawning habitat. This study quantified within-season repeat spawning behavior by rainbow smelt at two spawning sites in the Gulf of Maine, and described movements and habitat use during and following the spawning season in the Great Bay and Piscataqua River estuary complex in New Hampshire. Repeat spawning behavior was found to be a predominantly male behavior, consistent with past studies. …
Conflicting Group Meanings Of Territorial Rights In Central Mindanao: Muslim–Christian Social Representations Of Land Entitlement, Cristina Jayme Montiel, Marshaley J. Baquiano, Charlie M. Inzon
Conflicting Group Meanings Of Territorial Rights In Central Mindanao: Muslim–Christian Social Representations Of Land Entitlement, Cristina Jayme Montiel, Marshaley J. Baquiano, Charlie M. Inzon
Psychology Department Faculty Publications
Using a social representations lens, we examined subjective meanings of land entitlements in Central Mindanao among Muslims and Christians. In Study 1, we collected survey data from 231 students from the University of Southern Mindanao in Central Mindanao, asking them: ‘If you were to tell the story of land ownership in Cotabato, what three topics would you want to include in your story?’ Results of our hierarchical evocation analysis show that Christians are concerned with direct conflicts or actual intergroup confrontations while Muslims emphasise land issues. Study 2 implemented Focauldian Discursive Analysis to evaluate two separate focused group discussions by …

This qualitative study investigated the impact of social influence on weight loss, more specifically, the internal and external elements that effect response and success of those who are trying to lose weight. The research focused on three questions: (1) How great of an influence does self-efficacy have in weight loss success? (2) How great of an influence does social comparison have in weight loss success? (3) Which factor has the largest impact on weight loss: self-efficacy, peer efficacy, or positive social support, or negative social support? Data was collected by the researcher conducting semi-structured interviews. These interview were conducted with …

Can We Say More Now? A Closer Look At Online Public Opinion Change In China, Ran Duan
Can We Say More Now? A Closer Look At Online Public Opinion Change In China, Ran Duan
Theses and Dissertations--Sociology
This study examined the pattern of online public opinion change in China by investigating the top one hit blog and its following commentaries of every day from July 2009 to March 2012 on a famous Chinese website, and then discussed potential factors that affected the formation of online public opinion. The extent of freedom of online public opinion during this period presented regular fluctuations. Whether criticisms were registered by commentators was influenced by four factors. First and most important, the negative tone of bloggers increased criticism and the positive tone decreased criticism, which shows that the news that flows from …
Examination Of The Use Of Online And Offline Networks By Housing Social Movement Organizations, Jessica N. Kropczynski
Examination Of The Use Of Online And Offline Networks By Housing Social Movement Organizations, Jessica N. Kropczynski
Theses and Dissertations--Sociology
Resource mobilization theory and political opportunity theory are often used to describe separate portions of social movements. This dissertation proposes a combined model of these two theoretical perspectives which describes how social movement organizations effectively engage in social marketing both online and offline. The field of social marketing highlights the utility of standard commercial marketing practices to achieve non-commercial goals. I argue that, while commercial marketing practices may benefit social movement organizations and are more cost effective given emerging technology, momentum for gathering resources, will be stifled unless a political opportunity presents itself. Guided by theory about the ways that …
