Inclusive Education: Related Services Providers' Perceptions Of Their Roles And Responsibilities, Nina L. Jordan
Inclusive Education: Related Services Providers' Perceptions Of Their Roles And Responsibilities, Nina L. Jordan
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Studies that expressly define the roles of related service providers in inclusive schools are limited. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to examine the lived experiences of related service providers, specifically occupational therapists, physical therapists, and speech and language pathologists, who practice in an inclusive education setting. An objective was to examine their attitudes and beliefs toward inclusion. This study used role theory as the theoretical framework. Tenets of role theory were used to explain how related service providers have come to understand their roles and responsibilities in the inclusion setting. Purposeful and snowball sampling yielded 10 participants who …
Prayer As A Predictor For Burnout Among Psychiatric Nursing Assistants, James Michael Rose Ii
Prayer As A Predictor For Burnout Among Psychiatric Nursing Assistants, James Michael Rose Ii
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
The psychiatric nursing assistants who care for psychiatric patients in inpatient hospitals, like others who work in the human service field, experience some degree of burnout during their careers. This research used Pargament’s theory of religious coping to examine prayer as a predictor variable for a decrease in burnout experienced by psychiatric nursing assistants. The Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey and the Prayer Functions Scale were used to examine the predictor variables of prayer, gender, and years of service in correlation to the 3 dimensions of burnout. An N = 97 was obtained from the psychiatric nursing assistant population from …
Experiences Of Police Officers Who Have Received Crisis Intervention Team Training, Ashley D. Yinger
Experiences Of Police Officers Who Have Received Crisis Intervention Team Training, Ashley D. Yinger
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Police officers are often the frontline responders to calls involving people in mental distress. The lack of specialized mental health training can influence stigmatization and criminalization of people with a serious mental illness (SMI). Crisis intervention team (CIT) training is a tool to provide law enforcement with specialized mental health training to enhance their skills and comfort level when responding to crisis calls. There is a gap in the research examining officers' experiences with CIT training and how they apply that training when encountering people who have a SMI. The purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore a …
Conversation Goals, Communication Satisfaction, And Relational Dynamics While Navigating Alzheimer’S Disease: A Pre- And Post-Diagnosis Dyadic Examination Of Family Communication, Elizabeth A. Spencer
Conversation Goals, Communication Satisfaction, And Relational Dynamics While Navigating Alzheimer’S Disease: A Pre- And Post-Diagnosis Dyadic Examination Of Family Communication, Elizabeth A. Spencer
Theses and Dissertations--Communication
Currently there are more than 16 million unpaid Alzheimer’s disease and dementia caregivers in the United States. These caregivers are often family members of the person living with dementia, and as they navigate the process of giving care to the patient, they must also maintain relationships with each other. Families enter the dementia experience with a history of their relational experiences, and their relational experiences potentially change as they navigate family experiences after the dementia diagnosis. Much existing scholarship examining family communication in the context of progressive Alzheimer’s disease and other related dementias has focused on the perspectives of one …
Raising Intercultural Competence Of American Students: A Pilot Study, Sheyla Finkelshteyn
Raising Intercultural Competence Of American Students: A Pilot Study, Sheyla Finkelshteyn
Theses and Dissertations--Communication
International students and study abroad programs are major components of internationalization efforts for institutions (Beelen & Jones, 2015). Domestic students however do not have any established practice of intercultural training or orientation, even though most universities in America accept international students and promote internationalization which is the increase of intergroup contact as part of globalization (Sakurauchi, 2014). It is crucial to raise the intercultural communication competence (ICC) of American students so they can benefit from the internationalization efforts of universities (Sakurauchi, 2014). This study attempted see if the ICC can be raised by implementing an IPM training in a treatment …

Growing More Than Coffee: Global Narratives And National Reconciliation Within The Rwandan Coffee Industry, Katie Grandelli
Undergraduate Honors Theses
This thesis seeks to understand the Rwandan coffee industry following the genocide of 1994. The two major questions that are asked of the Rwandan coffee industry are the roles that it plays in reconciliation efforts and in global perception. The data examined in this thesis ranges from the marketing strategies of internationally popular coffee brands to an interview at a local coffee shop that specializes in Rwandan coffee products. This research engages in discussions of consumable goods as economic stimulants in post-conflict situations and indicators of neoliberal buying behavior on the part of consumers. Final analysis within this thesis suggests …

God And The Machine: A Correlational Study On Mobile Phone Dependence, Religious Coping, And Mental Health, Rachel Bolme
God And The Machine: A Correlational Study On Mobile Phone Dependence, Religious Coping, And Mental Health, Rachel Bolme
Senior Honors Theses
Research on the various effects of mobile phones did not begin to be published until after they had already been integrated into society. To date, the results of various studies looking into the relationship between mobile phone use and mental health demonstrate that phones, if used in problematic ways, have negative effects on mental health. Even so, there are no studies looking into problematic mobile phone use and how it correlates with spirituality and positive religious coping as well as mental health. Due to this gap in the research, this anonymous online study was designed to look into correlations between …

The Gulf of Mexico (GoM) region is prone to disasters, including recurrent oil spills, hurricanes, floods, industrial accidents, harmful algal blooms, and the current COVID-19 pandemic. The GoM and other regions of the U.S. lack sufficient baseline health information to identify, attribute, mitigate, and facilitate prevention of major health effects of disasters. Developing capacity to assess adverse human health consequences of future disasters requires establishment of a comprehensive, sustained community health observing system, similar to the extensive and well-established environmental observing systems. We propose a system that combines six levels of health data domains, beginning with three existing, national surveys …

The Relationship Between Developmental Opportunities, Burnout, And Turnover Intentions: An Exploration Of Potential Moderating Effects, Derek Gravholt
The Relationship Between Developmental Opportunities, Burnout, And Turnover Intentions: An Exploration Of Potential Moderating Effects, Derek Gravholt
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Through the lens of the Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) Model, potential moderating effects of Self-Determination Theory (SDT) needs were investigated for the relationships between developmental opportunities and both turnover intentions and burnout in a sample of healthcare employees. SDT needs include the need for competence, the need for relatedness, and the need for autonomy, which are all theorized to be important pieces of optimal psychological functioning. Results indicated that developmental opportunities were negatively related to both turnover intentions and burnout, and these effects were moderated by the employee’s sense of relatedness, such that those with low relatedness appreciated even more reduction …

Exploring Sleep Health Among Occupational Therapy Students, Kathy M. Yang, Stacy Smallfield
Exploring Sleep Health Among Occupational Therapy Students, Kathy M. Yang, Stacy Smallfield
Journal of Occupational Therapy Education
A substantial number of health-professional graduate students do not follow the national recommendation of obtaining at least seven hours of sleep per day. Decreased sleep duration and quality are strongly associated with daytime sleepiness and dysfunction, academic burnout, low academic performance, and mental health symptoms and disorders. However, limited research exists on sleep health among occupational therapy (OT) graduate students. Thus, the purpose of this study was to explore OT graduate student perspectives on sleep and to measure their sleep duration, quality, and practices to inform sleep promotion strategies for increased student well-being. A mixed-method study with a cross-sectional design …

The Critical Friend: Development Of A Peer Supervision Training For A Student-Run Occupational Therapy Clinic, Anne Murphy-Hagan, Lauren E. Milton
Journal of Occupational Therapy Education
An occupational therapy program at a research institution in the Midwest offers a student-run outpatient stroke clinic to prepare learners for the student-to-clinician transition. Notably, the students practice peer supervision in which participants with roughly the same level of training monitor, evaluate, and support one another. This project details the development of The Critical Friend, an evidence-based peer supervision training program implemented in a student-run occupational therapy clinic. The ADDIE Model of Instructional Design, which classifies five phases of instruction implementation (analyze, design, development, implementation, and evaluation) was utilized to translate research knowledge into a learning deliverable. This paper …
Calculating The Gender Gap In Legal Scholarship: An Empirical Study, Shontee M. Pant
Calculating The Gender Gap In Legal Scholarship: An Empirical Study, Shontee M. Pant
Saint Louis University Law Journal
Women have been attending law school at approximately equal rates as men for decades and began comprising a greater percentage of law school entrants than men in 2016. Yet, men continue to hold a solid majority of leadership positions across the legal field: from seats on judicial benches to podiums in front of law school classrooms. This paper examines one under-evaluated, yet critical gender gap within the legal profession: legal scholarship—specifically legal scholarship published by the flagship law reviews at the top twenty law schools. This article presents original research demonstrating that law reviews might be perpetuating the law professor …

Sexual Consent: Do You Get It? How College Students' Definitions Of Consent Differ From Their Region's Consent Policy, Alicia Clum, Hannah Bronson, Justin Chen, Phoebe Goldberg, Anastasia Guerra, Emily Mendelson
Sexual Consent: Do You Get It? How College Students' Definitions Of Consent Differ From Their Region's Consent Policy, Alicia Clum, Hannah Bronson, Justin Chen, Phoebe Goldberg, Anastasia Guerra, Emily Mendelson
Research Days Posters 2020
Although many colleges across the United States have incorporated some form of sexual consent policy into their code of conduct, these definitions vary by region and institution. Moreover, previous studies have found that although students may be aware of their university’s consent policy, it may not always be used in practice (Gronert & Raclaw, 2019; Ortiz, 2019). This study compares four samples of respondents by region (i.e. Northeast and South), assigning a regionally-typical consent policy to the sample and then analyzing the differences in sexual consent understanding and behaviors. We hypothesized that students’ internalized definitions of consent will differ both …

The More You Know: Relationship Comfortability And Applications Of Consent, Emily Mendelson, Emily Lancia
Research Days Posters 2020
When participants are asked about their consensual behaviors in sexual encounters, previous focus group research indicates that practices perceived to be appropriate to obtain and submit consent are circumstantial. In fact, data indicate that some people believe consent is not at all applicable in their personal encounters, such as long-term partnerships (Beres 2014). Thus, the level of comfort (or lack thereof) between sexual partners and the duration of sexual relationship has the potential to alter consensual practices. This poster analyzes trends in consensual behaviors as a result of comfort or discomfort with a partner and length of time sexually involved …

The limited early response to the AIDS epidemic deepened existing prejudices against marginalized groups. Healthcare, government assistance, and social services were denied, insufficient, or inaccessible. The Gay Men's Health Crisis (GMHC) formed in NYC in the 1980s as a volunteer-oriented community response to ameliorate social and medical conditions that clients with AIDS faced. Through Bronfenbrenner's Ecological model, GMHC's monthly archives made for the affected community from 1986 to 1988 were qualitatively analyzed to understand the factors that contributed to the client's experiences with GMHC and AIDS. These included client reports, minutes from team leader meetings, board meeting notes, and newsletters. …

Let's Talk About Sex...And Gender: The Varying Ways In Which Sex And Gender Are Operationally Defined In Current Medical Research, Marissa Cimmino, Jasper Otvertchenko
Research Days Posters 2020
Sex-based differences are a common area of study in health research, specifically in relation to disease manifestation and treatment. Hormonal makeup, genetic factors, and reproductive organs are a few factors lumped under the definition of sex while broad and varying social paradigms are examined as a framework for gender or excluded altogether. Operational definitions of sex and/or gender were compared within varying sectors of healthcare in western medicine, elucidating the differences in medical research practices overall. This content analysis shows limitations in how current studies define what sex characteristics are being examined, how sex/gender are defined, and if these distinctions …

It's Not A Phase Mom: How Parental Acceptance Influences Long Term Well Being For Sexual And Gender Minorities, Jonathan Gaughan
Research Days Posters 2020
Disclosure of sexual and/or gender minority status, or "coming out", is often an important step for sexual and gender minorities (SGM) that, along with components of familial acceptance such as support, discussion, and expression of affection, are critical in identity formation. While many studies have examined the harms of familial rejection on emerging SGM adults, few studies have examined the possible benefits of family acceptance. Our study examined the influence of SGM's reported levels of accepting parental behaviors in regards to self-image, sexual satisfaction, and outlook on relationships which may have far-reaching implications for long-term health and happiness of emerging …

Sharing Isn't Always Caring: Sti Concerns, Matt Heider
Research Days Posters 2020
This study examined the relationship between gender and concern about contracting a sexually transmitted diseases during oral sex. It was hypothesized that concern regarding contracting a sexually transmitted disease would be higher in females in general than in males in general. College students completed a survey with questions regarding their concern levels about contracting an STI while having oral sex. The implications are discussed regarding the variance in concern from “never concerned” to “always concerned” of contracting an STI.

This mixed-methods analysis explores the characteristics of the "talking phase", a preliminary stage of courtship which we hypothesize is prevalent in hookup culture on college campuses. We are investigating this stage of dating culture and intimacy accumulation as influenced by the nuances of communication in the age of social media, possibly emerging as a response to novel difficulties that are inadequately addressed by the traditional dating model. Our study seeks to assign an operational definition to the term "just talking" based on analysis of open-ended responses from students at a mid-sized eastern university describing their understanding of this stage. The …

Research Days Posters 2020
Acquiring clear consent during hookups can be challenging. Previous research suggested that humans engage in a "fight or flight" response under stress. More recently, a "tend and befriend" model was hypothesized by Taylor (2000, 2002) to explain how many people, especially women, respond with friendly or nurturant behavior in stressful situations. Young adults completed a survey assessing their various behaviors during stressful hookup encounters. Behaviors were categorized as either "tend and befriend" or "fight or flight" response. Tend and befriend behaviors included "smiling nervously" and more. This study looked at gender differences in regards to stressful hookup situations.

Can Practice Make Perfect: Sexual Experience And Consensual Behaviors In Hookups, Emily Lancia, Emily Mendelson
Research Days Posters 2020
College students have significantly varied levels of sexual experience due to differing numbers of previous partners, years sexually active, and frequency of sexual activity. As repeated practice often improves performance in both psychological and physical behaviors, this poster analyzes whether the extent of one’s sexual experience has an effect on the consensual behaviors they elect to utilize during hookup encounters, and how confident they are that these behaviors are effective in obtaining and submitting consent. Data is taken from a survey of undergraduate students from a mid-size northeastern university who were asked questions about their most recent hookup experiences, including …

Attitudes Towards Sexual Assault: The Influence Of Athletic Background And Media Portrayal On Perceptions Of Rape, Bridget Jules
Research Days Posters 2020
Societal attitudes towards athletes may influence media depictions of sexual assault perpetrators and individuals' responses to these portrayals, which can thereby shape reactions and outcomes affecting perpetrators and victims. This study presented participants (N=616) with actual news articles depicting sexual assaults committed by athlete and non-athlete perpetrators. Articles were reliably coded for various characteristics. Analyses indicated that athlete perpetrators were characterized more positively than non-athletes. Analyses indicated that characteristics of the participant were more relevant to shaping attitudes than article-level factors, with attributes including sports fanaticism and beliefs about rape predicted how blame was apportioned to victims versus perpetrators.

Legal Complexities Of The Sex Trafficking Of Minors, Christie Mccormick
Legal Complexities Of The Sex Trafficking Of Minors, Christie Mccormick
Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
Among human rights abuses in modern society, the trafficking of women and children for labor, prostitution, and other forms of sexual exploitation is one of the greatest. While a large amount of time and financial support has gone into efforts to suppress trafficking and shelter its victims, there has not been enough done to tackle this problem. Before reaching the age of 18, it is predicted that 80% of adolescents in the United States will have traded money for sex. Many adolescent girls who have been trafficked in the commercial sex industries are subject to serious criminal penalties for prostitution-related …
