The Authenticity Of The Judicial Control Records In Evidence In The Palestinian Law: A Comparative Study, Qais Qatanani Sep 2023

The Authenticity Of The Judicial Control Records In Evidence In The Palestinian Law: A Comparative Study, Qais Qatanani

An-Najah University Journal for Research - B (Humanities)

There is no doubt that the criminal judge enjoys a wide discretion when weighing the evidence and determining the extent of its strength when forming his certain conviction, whether it is related to the evidence concluded by the accusing authority or what was raised before the court in the case. However, the reader of the legal texts cited by the Palestinian legislator in procedural law that talk about the freedom of the criminal judge to be convinced; notes the extent of its generality and its lack of a general framework that shows how limited that freedom enjoyed by the judge …

Facilitating A Faculty Learning Community: Determining Consensus Using Q Methodology, Susan Ramlo Sep 2023

Facilitating A Faculty Learning Community: Determining Consensus Using Q Methodology, Susan Ramlo

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

With plans to improve a Technical Report Writing course, writing faculty and engineering-technology faculty formed a faculty learning community (FLC). Although discussions were often productive, it was often difficult to gauge consensus and differing views among the group members. In a previous study, Q methodology, a measure of subjectivity, was used to facilitate discussions among a diverse set of faculty (Ramlo, 2005). Similar to that study, the researcher found here that determination of consensus and differing opinions in the FLC improved dialogue, built an improved sense of community, and led to improvement of the course.

Domestic Violence As A Wicked Social Problem: Policy Cascades And Misdirected Solutions, Ericka Kimball, Passion Ilea, Steph Ng Ping Cheung Sep 2023

Domestic Violence As A Wicked Social Problem: Policy Cascades And Misdirected Solutions, Ericka Kimball, Passion Ilea, Steph Ng Ping Cheung

School of Social Work Faculty Publications and Presentations

In this article, we introduce the concept of a policy cascade, which describes the process of creating policies to address the consequences of other policies. Using the concept of wicked problems introduced by Rittel and Webber in 1973, we trace state and federal policies to address domestic violence to show how they form a policy cascade and decenter survivors. By treating social issues as wicked problems, upstream approaches that bypass compounding effects of policy may help recenter survivor needs.

Forensic Evidence And Rule 3.8: What Does The Use Of Bite Mark Evidence Tell Us About Prosecutorial Ethics?, Brendan Clemente Sep 2023

Forensic Evidence And Rule 3.8: What Does The Use Of Bite Mark Evidence Tell Us About Prosecutorial Ethics?, Brendan Clemente

Duke Law & Technology Review

Rule 3.8 of the ABA’s Model Rules of Professional Conduct should include rules that specifically address unethical uses of forensic evidence in criminal prosecutions. Forensic evidence is common in criminal trials. But the traditional rules of ethics do not effectively address the use of forensic evidence. Rule 3.8 should include a rule requiring prompt and full disclosure of information about expert witnesses whom the prosecutor plans to call and all relevant information that the prosecutor knows about a forensic method’s application in the case. Rule 3.8 should also include a requirement that the prosecutor use reasonable diligence to learn about …

Pain Transformed: The Salutary Effects Of Suffering In Eighteenth-Century France, Anne Seul Sep 2023

Pain Transformed: The Salutary Effects Of Suffering In Eighteenth-Century France, Anne Seul

Arts & Sciences Graduate Student Theses and Dissertations

At the center of Pain Transformed lies the human body and the experience of suffering, particularly in regard to the unexpectedly beneficial side-effects of pain. I examine depictions of suffering in the literature of eighteenth-century France, a period best understood as one of spirited debate and marked innovation: by way of personal letters, literary and philosophical works, coffee shops, and salons, intellectuals interacted with one another’s ideas in an attempt to redefine society. My focus is on a series of works that merge preoccupations with the body—the physiological processes of how and why people feel, both physically and emotionally—with the …

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

Purpose Coercive control is a power dynamic central to intimate partner violence (IPV) and consists of tactics to limit one’s partner’s autonomy through constraint, regulation of everyday life, isolation, pursuit, and intimidation and physical force. Such tactics may potentially signal a risk for future lethal or near lethal violence; hence, proper evaluation may enhance the utility of clinical femicide risk assessments. The goal of this study is to explore coercive control behaviors preceding partner femicides in Spain with the intention to provide guidance for its assessment by first responders and law enforcement.

Contextual Determinants Of Re-Reporting For Families Receiving Alternative Response: A Survival Analysis In A Midwestern State, Jianchao Lai, Michelle Graef, Todd Franke, Toby Burnham

Center on Children, Families, and the Law: Faculty Publications

Differential response (DR) has been widely adopted in over 30 states to address shortcomings of the traditional approach to child maltreatment reports in complex family and case circumstances. However, despite continued evaluation efforts, evidence of the effectiveness of DR remains inconclusive. The current study aims to assess the impact of a DR program and potential predictors, including service match and number of family case workers, on maltreatment re-reports in a Midwestern state. The study utilized a randomized control trial and assigned eligible families to either the Alternative Response (AR) track or Traditional Response (TR) track. The enrollment was implemented in …
