Neurobiological Foundations Of Radicalization And Countermeasures: A Biopsychosocial Perspective, Beshoy Benjamin Suleiman

Future Journal of Social Science

This study presents an interdisciplinary exploration of the radicalization process through the Biopsychosocial Model, integrating biological, psychological, and social determinants. Addressing the gap left by traditional approaches that focus on sociopolitical, psychological, and demographic factors, the research investigates the neural mechanisms underpinning social identity and group dynamics that intensify radical beliefs. Utilizing social neuroscience, the research identifies neural correlates of radicalization, contributing to a multi-level understanding that spans cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and political science. The findings indicate that specific brain functions related to social processing play a significant role in the adoption and reinforcement of extremist ideologies. This paper discusses …

On The Duty Of Uncivil Disobedience: Thoreau's Action From Principle, Alan F. Garcia

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis explores the uncivil disobedience evident in some of Henry D. Thoreau’s work, which is often regarded as the birth and foundation of what is today known as “civil disobedience.” Using the nature of Thoreau’s subtle language and his philosophy of action from principle in his writings, including “Resistance to Civil Government” (1849), Walden (1854), “Life Without Principle” (1863), “A Plea for Captain John Brown" (1859), and some of his real life actions, this thesis will examine the antagonistic and, perhaps, uncivil nature of Thoreau’s so-called “civil disobedience.” This thesis will also incorporate Sophocles’ play Antigone (441 BBC), Candice …

Utilizing Mock Code Simulation To Enhance Nurses’ Confidence A Benchmark Project, Denecia Mark

MSN Capstone Projects

Each year, about 292,000 adult patients in the United States have an in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA), with substantial variance in their rate of survival (Merchant et al., 2020). Graduate nurses must be knowledgeable and prepared to respond to codes. Mock Codes or simulation-based teaching will allow nurses to practice skills, expand their knowledge, and gain self-confidence in a secure and controlled setting with no risk to patients, reducing nurses' anxiety. CPR certification is currently updated every two years, and research has shown that learned skills begin to deteriorate after three months. As a result, if simulated codes are introduced skills …

Hypothesis And Theory: Do Trees "Release The Tension" In Rainwater? Surface Tension Reduction In Throughfall And Stemflow From Urban Trees, Benjamin J. Noren, Nicholas R. Lewis, Kelly Cristina Tonello, Anna Ilek, John T. Van Stan Ii

Biological, Geological, and Environmental Faculty Publications

Knowledge of the processes and impacts associated with the canopy's partitioning of rainfall into stemflow (water that drains to the base of tree stems) and throughfall (water that drips through gaps and from canopy surfaces) has expanded in recent years. However, the effect of canopy interactions on the fundamental physical properties of rainwater as it travels through the canopy to the soil, particularly surface tension, remains understudied. To discuss specific hypotheses within this context and their relevance to ecohydrological theory, the surface tension of rainwater samples was examined directly. Over a period of 9 months, open rainwater, throughfall and stemflow …

Prevention Of Medical Device-Related Pressure Injuries: A Quality Improvement Project, Monika Grzelczak

DNP Projects

Significance and Background: Hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPI) continued to rise, costing the healthcare system about $ 11 billion annually. Medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPI) account for about 10% of HAPI. They are also noted to be on the rise, especially in the Intensive Care Units (ICU), where multiple medical devices are placed on patients for monitoring and treatment. An intervention to reverse those unfavorable trends is needed. Evidence supports poster education to improve rates of MDRPI.

Purpose: This quality improvement project was conducted to eliminate incidents of MDRPI in the ICU and improve nurses’ perception of the importance of preventing …

At The Intersection Of Functionality And Beauty: A Study Of The Carrara Herbal, Anna Grace Robinson

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

The Carrara Herbal is a manuscript that sits at the cusp between medieval and early Renaissance work in Padua, Italy. With medical “simples,” or singular ingredients to be combined, as its primary focus, the Herbal is heavily illustrated and illuminated (the process of decorating a manuscript with color and even precious metals like gold), demonstrating the commissioner’s intentions and establishing him as a leader in the field of botanical medical knowledge. However, the intent and practical use seem to be at odds in the case of the Carrara Herbal. As six centuries passed, the manuscript was actively used and revised …

Informal Field-Based Learning In Librarianship: A Case Study Applying The Cam-Os Framework To Library Guide Construction, Nicole R. Webber

University Libraries Publications

Activities such as library guide creation and maintenance can take a large amount of our time without supplying evidence that the time spent is effective or worthwhile. Usage statistics and feedback are one avenue for gauging the impact of a guide, but we overlook another benefit if we focus solely on the user. By applying Tannenbaum and Wolfson’s (2022) CAM-OS framework, we can bring greater intention to tasks that foster informal learning opportunities and harness them to advance librarians’ competencies. A case study of overhauling a library guide on copyright is used to demonstrate and apply the framework.

Dobbs And The Future Of Liberty And Equality, Kim Forde-Mazrui

Cleveland State Law Review

This lecture critiques Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization and assesses its implications for liberty and equality. Dobbs’ immediate effect was major disruption to abortion rights. In the longer term, by discarding fifty years of precedent and by basing constitutional rights exclusively on long-standing history and tradition, Dobbs jeopardizes liberty and equality rights that the Court has recognized in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Such modern liberty rights include contraception, interracial marriage, adult sexual intimacy and same-sex marriage. Modern equality rights include strong bars on discrimination based on race and sex, and moderate protections for LGBTQ+ status. …
