Sociocognition Issues Affecting The Working Relationship Between The Deaf Professional And The Interpreter, Poorna Kushalnagar

JADARA

The focus of this paper is to review the literature on socio-cognition issues for deaf graduate students and professionals working with interpreters in order to assess its usefulness in developing key conditions under which deaf graduate student/professional- interpreterworkingrelationshipsmightbeimplementedmoreeffectively. Theories on cognitive dissonance and stereotyping will be examined in relation to their possible implications in the working relationship, and included in this review if they related to the development and maintenance of an ongoing working relationship between the deaf professional and the interpreter. The concept, cognitive dissonance, will be introduced in this discussion and examined for its relevance to the inconsistency …

Language Disfluency And Diagnosis In The Deaf Inpatient Population, Neil S. Glickman

JADARA

This study was designed to investigate the relationship between language dysfluency in the deaf inpatient population and the following variables: psychiatric diagnosis, risk of harm to self and others and psycho-social functioning admission scores on the Clinical Evaluation of Risk and Functioning Scale - Revised(CERF-R), and cognitive ability as measured by the Allen Cognitive Level Scale(ACL).

The research found that 75% of deaf individuals fell into the non-fluent range of communication in ASL, their best language. Participants with severe language dysfluency received DSM-IV diagnoses concentrated in more severe forms of psychopathology, while individuals with fluent language skills received a broader …

Positive Aspects Of Parenting A Deaf Child: Categories Of Potential Positive Influences, Amy Szarkowski, Patrick Brice

JADARA

Hearing parents were interviewed regarding the positive aspects of parenting their deaf children. The parent/child dyads were also observed in interactions and parents were asked to record in a journal their reflections about parenting a deaf child. This information was organized into categories that influenced the degree to which parents reported having positive experiences. A total of 42 categories were derived from the data obtained in the interviews, which were further arranged by the researchers in to relevant clusters. The clusters allow readers to better conceptualize the influences on parents that impact their ability to have a positive parenting experience. …

Comparison Of Face-To-Face And Video-Mediated Communication With Deaf Individuals: Implications For Telepsychotherapy, Michael John Gournaris, Irene W. Leigh

JADARA

Telecommunications and videoconference systems are increasingly replacing face-to-face communication (F2F). Video-mediated communication (VMC) offers the benefit of virtual F2F communication over long distances. The purpose of this study was to compare communication performance and perceptions for deaf individuals in F2F and VMC situations using a Map Task. Deaf participants were instructed by a deaf instructor using American Sign Language to mark routes. There were no significant differences in the length of sessions, almost all communication breakdown events, map task deviations, and overall outcomes. The results suggest that effective communication can occur in VMC situations. Research is needed to gauge the …

Creating And Strengthening The Therapeutic System For Treatment Setting Serving Deaf Children, Asiah Mason, Matthew Mason, Earl T. Braxton

JADARA

Treating deaf children with severe emotional and behavior problems, especially in residential and alternative school treatment settings, is a demanding undertaking. Finding and retaining skilled mental health paraprofessionals are continual challenges faced by mental health service providers. These challenges are even greater when the children served are deaf, and when staff members are expected to be multilingual, be knowledgeable about deaf culture, and be able to treat children with a multitude of severe mental health disturbances. Staff members face the dilemma of both raising and treating children in the same setting with limited resources. Limited funding and limited service models …

Integrated Perspective Of Low Self-Control And Lifestyle-Exposure: Gender Differences In Victimization Risk Among South Korean Youth, Hyounggon Kwak

Theses and Dissertations

This dissertation examined the link between low self-control, risky lifestyles, and victimization, using data from 1,057 South Korean adolescents included in the Study on Childhood Delinquency. Specifically, this study explores a full mediation model to test whether risky lifestyles (unstructured activity, association with deviant peers, and delinquency) account for the effect of low self-control on victimization. The results indicated that low self-control only had an indirect effect on victimization primarily through unstructured time and one’s own delinquency. In addition, this study explored whether variations in the adolescent routine activities foster engagement in delinquency via association with deviant peers. Advancing prior …

A Longitudinal Approach To Examining The Socio-Economic Resilience Of The Alento District (Italy) To Land Degradation—1950 To Present, Rosanna Salvia, Claire L. Kelly, Geoff A. Wilson, Giovanni Quaranta

School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences

Land degradation is a multifaceted phenomenon. In many mountainous and hilly areas that are marginal in terms of their economic and social sustainability, degradation is closely linked to population decline through ageing and outmigration, and to the abandonment of land, leading to a loss of community resilience. These processes acting together can produce positive feedback loops, with the consequential loss of socio-economic resilience at larger spatial scales that can ultimately lead to the disintegration of entire territories. Drawing on recent advances in defining, integrating, and operationalizing the measurement of resilience, this paper took a new approach by exploring changing resilience …

Teacher Recruitment: Factors That Predict High School Students’ Willingness To Become Teachers, Steve Christensen, Randall Davies, Scott Harris, Joseph Hanks, Byran Bowles

Faculty Publications

This study examines factors that influence high school students’ willingness to consider teaching as a career. Using predictive modeling, we identified five factors that are highly predictive of a students’ willingness to consider teaching and their belief that teaching is their best career option. Results indicated that high school students were more likely to consider teaching when they had confidence in their ability to be good teachers, when family members and others encouraged them to become teachers, and when they felt their community supported teachers. Most of those who considered teaching thought of themselves as average students. Less impactful factors …

Analysis Of Children's Food Packaging Image And Color Preferences Based On Cognitive Psychology, Huang Lu

Food and Machinery

The rules of the development of modern children's cognitive psychology were expounded and the development characteristics of cognitive psychology and artistic performance of children aged 3~12 years were analyzed combined with the actual research results. After obtaining the children's preference for food packaging in terms of image and color, some suggestions on how packaging design could satisfy children's purchasing emotional and psychological needs were given, from both image and color according to children's physical and mental development characteristics.

John Dewey's Rival Versions Of Virtue, Jeff Mitchell

Education and Culture

In 1932 Dewey and Tufts issued an extensively revised edition of their famous Ethics of 1908. Both versions are now available as public domain resources on the Internet, and teachers are likely to assign the second edition, since it reflects the authors’ mature views. However, at least as regards Dewey’s treatment of virtue, I argue that the earlier version is pedagogically superior to the later one. I contend that the revised treatment of virtue is in fact less true to the book’s celebrated genetic approach, and that the first edition also makes better use of the cultural resources that Dewey …

Guiding Intuitions In Education: Lesson Planning As Consummatory Experience, Leonard J. Waks

Education and Culture

In this paper I account for the role of guiding intuitions in teaching, focusing on the intuitions formed in the process of lesson planning. I start (in section one) by reviewing some research on lesson planning to locate the role of intuition in the process. I then turn to Wertheimer’s and Kohler’s gestalt psychology (section two) and Dewey’s theory of consummatory experience (section three) further to clarify and explain the process of lesson planning as the formation of guiding intuitions. I conclude that gestalt psychology is a less promising framework for explaining guiding intuitions than Dewey’s theory of experience.

Food Insecurity: Deconstructing Its Predictors And Relationship To Hiv Medication Adherence, Lacey Critchley

Open Access Dissertations

In recent years, increasing attention and research has been placed on how to better engage people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV) in the HIV care continuum, as treatment for HIV/AIDS is now extremely effective. However, several marginalized populations continue to be disproportionately affected by the virus, hampering efforts to end the epidemic. Substance users remain one of the most difficult groups to engage and retain in HIV care and often have unsuppressed poorly controlled HIV infection as a result of inadequate antiretroviral (ART) adherence. Research shows substance users are also more likely to have multiple co-occurring social syndemics and engage in …
