Toward A Useful Synthesis Of Deweyan Pragmatism And Music Education, Illkay Ebru Tuncer Boon
Toward A Useful Synthesis Of Deweyan Pragmatism And Music Education, Illkay Ebru Tuncer Boon
Visions of Research in Music Education
The purpose of this work is to explore the possibility of incorporating pragmatism into music education. The paper discusses John Dewey’s pragmatism and analyzes the interpretations and influences of Deweyan pragmatism in music education with the help of interview responses of scholars worldwide. Finally, it seeks specific answers as to how Deweyan pragmatism can help the transformation of music education, particularly of music teacher education. The historical information was obtained through a close analysis and reviewing of Dewey’s writings, as well as other educational scholars’ writings on Dewey’s pragmatism. After gaining a personal insight and understanding how much Dewey’s pragmatism …

Gender And Emotions At Work: Organizational Rank Has Greater Emotional Benefits For Men Than Women, Christa L. Taylor, Zorana Ivcevic, Julia Moeller, Jochen I. Menges, Roni Reiter-Palmon, Marc A. Brackett
Psychology Faculty Publications
The way people feel is important for how they behave and perform in the workplace. Experiencing more positive−and less negative−emotions at work is often associated with greater status and power. But there may be differences in how men and women feel at work, particularly at different levels in their organizations. Using data from a nation-wide sample of working adults, we examine differences in the emotions that men and women experience at work, how gender interacts with rank to predict emotions, if the association between gender and emotions is accounted for by emotional labor demands, and if this relationship differs according …

Professors’ Perceptions Of Academic Entitlement And Student Consumerism, Charles Kelley
Professors’ Perceptions Of Academic Entitlement And Student Consumerism, Charles Kelley
Dissertations
This study was designed to solicit data from higher education professors concerning academic entitlement and student consumerism to contribute to existing research. Previous research concerning these two topics focused on students and the students’ responses. A mixed-methods strategy was utilized to discover professors’ experiences and perceptions with the topics of academic entitlement and or student consumerism. Charmaz’s (2014) constructivist interpretation of Glaser and Strauss’ grounded theory (2017) served as the theoretical framework for this research study. An exploratory sequential design was utilized, beginning with open-ended qualitative interviews. The data mined from the qualitative interviews in conjunction with the three research …

The Real Me: Shared Technology’S Impact On Status From The Lens Of Positioning Theory, Christina Nishiyama, Michael E. Nussbaum, Michael S. Van Winkle
College of Education Faculty Research
Participation in collaborative learning environments has demonstrated significant learning advantages due to opportunities for group members to contribute to shared problem-solving processes, shared goals, and co-elaboration of knowledge. Furthermore, research has shown that higher levels of social perceptiveness are positively correlated with higher levels of group performance. However, collaboration is not always successful, sometimes exhibiting imbalances of power and status. In this study, positioning theory and interaction analysis were used to investigate (a) interactions in four racially and gender-mixed groups (of three university students each) working with technology and (b) their negotiated positions of power and status. Results showed that …
Rural Counties Lost More Years Of Life Than Urban Counties In 2020, Yue Sun
Rural Counties Lost More Years Of Life Than Urban Counties In 2020, Yue Sun
Population Health Research Brief Series
Rural mortality rates have been higher than urban mortality rates for decades in the United States. Now, higher COVID-19 mortality rates in rural areas threaten to exacerbate the existing rural mortality penalty. This brief shows that rural counties had higher average years of potential life lost than urban counties in both 2019 and 2020. However, the increase in YPLL between 2019 and 2020 was largest in small rural counties and large rural counties adjacent to metro areas. Federal, state, and local governments must target social, structural, and policy determinants of health and premature mortality that disproportionately affect rural residents.

Religion In The News On An Ordinary Day: Methodology, Choices, And Bias, David H. Michels, Christopher Helland
Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press
In this article we explore the Religion on an Ordinary Day (RoD) methodology in detail. The RoD project collected news stories published on September 17 over the period of three years (2013, 2014, 2015) in Australia, Canada, Finland, and the United Kingdom. We consider our decisions regarding the variability of language, researcher bias, and intercoder reliability in data collection and coding and the implications of those decisions. We offer a case study that analyzes references to New Religious Movements in the news. We considered the intentional choices, unintentional choices in the forms of accidents and misunderstandings, as well as unconsidered …

Canada has a deeply rooted connection with Christianity in its Protestant and Catholic forms. However, over the latter half of the 20th century there has been a strong shift toward secularization and the promotion of religious diversity. Through our study, we identified 186 news articles that made one or more references to conventional religion, common religion, or secular sacred themes. We then considered news stories with references to religion where religion was the main issue of the story and found 56 articles with majority of their focus on Islam. In the analysis it became clear there was a conflict in …

Racism, Posttraumatic Stress Symptoms, And Racial Disparity In The U.S. Covid-19 Syndemic, Xiang Zhou, Viann N. Nguyen-Feng, Rachel Wamser-Nanney, Annett Lotzin
Department of Educational Studies Faculty Publications
The COVID-19 syndemic, with a disproportionately higher adverse impact on communities of color (i.e., COVID-19 infection and death), will likely exacerbate the existing health disparities in trauma-related symptoms between people of color (POC) and White Americans. However, no studies have examined the racial disparity in posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) during COVID-19. Grounded in ecological theory and racial trauma framework, we investigated racial disparity in PTSS and three possible mechanisms, 1) COVID stress, 2) direct racism, and 3) indirect racism, for these discrepancies using a large U.S. national sample. Results indicated that POC reported higher levels of PTSS than White Americans. …
Social Experiences Of Muslim Americans Regarding The Intolerance Displayed By Non-Muslims, Munder Abderrazzaq
Social Experiences Of Muslim Americans Regarding The Intolerance Displayed By Non-Muslims, Munder Abderrazzaq
Journal of Social, Behavioral, and Health Sciences
Non-Muslims in the United States have openly expressed their opposition regarding Muslim Americans, which has led to the racial profiling and unequal treatment of Muslim Americans. Literature regarding the intolerance displayed by majority members indicates a need for further research that explores the point of view of minorities in the United States. Intolerance is defined as the refusal and unwillingness to respect or tolerate persons of a different social group or members of minority groups who hold beliefs contrary to one’s own. The intolerance displayed among members of different religious and cultural backgrounds can limit the ability to discover new …
Mapping The Publics: The Production Of Spatial Knowledge And Public Interest, Paul Thomas Manson
Mapping The Publics: The Production Of Spatial Knowledge And Public Interest, Paul Thomas Manson
Dissertations and Theses
Over the past decades, calls for comprehensively managing and planning ocean resources have emerged internationally and within the United States. Central to these calls is a drive to expand coastal and marine spatial planning with a particular focus on technologically mediated public involvement. These new public involvement technologies aim, more quickly and thoroughly, to solicit and analyze public values and existing uses of the coastal and marine environments. One particular technological innovation is the use of participatory geographic information systems (PGIS). These new tools allow for stakeholders, members of the public, and planning entities to collect, visualize, and interact with …

Anticipatory Socialization And Forms Of Capital In Pre-Law Students’ Intent To Pursue A Juris Doctorate, Zarrina Talan Azizova, Jeongeun Kim, Jesse Perez Mendez
Journal of Access, Retention, and Inclusion in Higher Education
This study employs student survey data and statistical analysis to reveal whether demographics, forms of capital, and anticipatory socialization factors determine pre-law students' intent to pursue a law degree and their perceptions of LSAT scores as an indicator of admissibility. Descriptive statistics show that 72 percent of the respondents were concerned about financial debt and 68 percent of respondents were concerned about their chances of being admitted. Female and racial/ethnic students held negative perceptions about their LSAT scores. Regression analysis shows that six factors held associations with the respondents’ intent to pursue a law degree and perceptions of LSAT scores. …

This qualitative study explored the participants' perception of how a program that provided college access and support to low-income students shaped their college experience and their belief in their ability to persist until graduation. The support provided by the Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF) Program at Montclair State University, begins with mandatory participation in a Summer Bridge Program called the EOF Summer Academy. Analysis of 5 semi-structured focus group interviews with Black, male First-Generation college students highlighted three themes: 1) the importance of the Summer Academy in ensuring academic preparedness and formation of peer support networks, 2) the establishment of fictive …
The Predictive Influence Of Challenging Behavior On Parent Stress In Young Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder, Paige Weir
LSU Master's Theses
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by deficits in social communication, restricted interest, and repetitive patterns of behavior. Individuals with ASD also exhibit challenging behaviors that affect parent and caregiver stress directly. However, researchers have not yet examined the predictive influence of specific challenging behaviors on parent stress, particularly in young children (i.e., infants and toddlers) with ASD. Therefore, the current study expands existing literature by a) investigating the influence that challenging behaviors of young children with ASD have on parent stress and b) examining the unique contribution that each behavior (i.e., aggressive/disruptive behavior, stereotypy, and self-injurious …

Using Dyadic Observation To Explore Equitable Learning Opportunities In Classroom Instruction, Alyson L. Lavigne, Thomas L. Good
Using Dyadic Observation To Explore Equitable Learning Opportunities In Classroom Instruction, Alyson L. Lavigne, Thomas L. Good
Teacher Education and Leadership Faculty Publications
Because of poverty, many children do not receive adequate prenatal care, nutrition, or early childhood education. These inequities combine to ensure that many students enter school with considerably less academic content knowledge and skills for learning than their peers. Teachers and schools did not create these gaps, but they must address them. The impact of schools in reducing gaps has been explored for decades only to yield inconsistent findings. One possible reason for these contradictory results is because these studies ignore classroom process. We argue for the inclusion of process in research on opportunity and achievement gaps to better articulate …
Keep Your Friends Close: Ostracism Via Social Media As A Function Of Relational Closeness, Ryan Barta
Keep Your Friends Close: Ostracism Via Social Media As A Function Of Relational Closeness, Ryan Barta
Theses and Dissertations
Ostracism can occur on social media sites just as easily as in face-to-face interactions, but the outcomes of such events may depend on the closeness of the preexisting relationship. A needs-threat model was employed alongside measures of relational devaluation to collect data from 343 participants. The participants were assigned to one of three groups: close tie, loose tie, or control. Participants in the loose ties condition reported less basic needs fulfilment than those in the close ties condition. Additionally, participants in both experimental conditions reported similar feelings of relational devaluation compared to control participants. A post-hoc exploratory analysis of attributions …
