Perceived Employer Authenticity Effects On Employee Engagement Demonstrated Through Csr/Esg Communications, Nichole P. Klaaren
Perceived Employer Authenticity Effects On Employee Engagement Demonstrated Through Csr/Esg Communications, Nichole P. Klaaren
Doctor of Business Administration Dissertations
Having an engaged workforce is a key competitive advantage in the market today due to the unique benefits that employees create through organizational culture and their relationships with stakeholders. With the increase in organizations participating in and reporting their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) activities to their stakeholders, communicating these types of activities becomes another tool for improving employee engagement. This research uses Social Identity Theory (SIT) to explain the important connections that can be built with employees when a corporation acts authentically. The key objective of this study was to explore how corporate authenticity …
Remote Work, Social Exchange Theory, And Firm Performance, Christopher Mise
Remote Work, Social Exchange Theory, And Firm Performance, Christopher Mise
Doctor of Business Administration Dissertations
Since Covid-19 pushed workers out of traditional offices and into a remote setting, many have encouraged continuation of its practice post-pandemic. Academic literature reports that employees are happier working remotely and that organizations can benefit from their outcomes. This potential mutual benefit has led some researchers to posit that social exchange theory (SET) may be explain the relationship. To determine if SET is situationally descriptive, this research includes two studies. The first study investigates whether remote workers report higher SET traits than their counterparts in traditional offices. The study used a survey from a representative sample and found that remote …
Challenging The Criminalization Of Undocumented Drivers Through A Health-Justice Framework, Jason A. Cade
Challenging The Criminalization Of Undocumented Drivers Through A Health-Justice Framework, Jason A. Cade
Scholarly Works
States increasingly use driver’s license laws to further policy objectives unrelated to road safety. This symposium contribution employs a health justice lens to focus on one manifestation of this trend—state schemes that prohibit noncitizen residents from accessing driver’s licenses and then impose criminal sanctions for driving without authorization. Status-based no-license laws not only facilitate legally questionable enforcement of local immigration priorities but also impose structural inequities with long-term health consequences for immigrants and their family members, including US citizen children. Safe, reliable transportation is a significant social determinant of health for individuals, families, and communities. Applying a health justice lens …

Inequity In Equities: Spacs And The Expansion Of The Retail Market, Usha R. Rodrigues, Michael Stegemoller
Scholarly Works
Federal securities law creates a divide between the haves and the have-nots: On one side are the wealthy, who can invest in private companies; on the other side stand the rest of us, noses pressed up against the glass. Ordinary (or retail) investors are on the outside looking in because generally they can only invest in companies after they have gone public. Even the traditional process of going public typically keeps coveted initial public offering (IPO) shares in the hands of the rich. Put differently, even as a private firm debuts on the public markets, the wealthy take their cut …
Crawford And Criminal Justice, William Ortman
Crawford And Criminal Justice, William Ortman
Scholarly Works
This essay reflects on whether Crawford v. Washington, now in its third decade of life, matters to criminal justice. For all the talk of Crawford as “revolutionary,” that is, has it made any real difference to the world of crime and punishment? I’ve confronted the question before. In a 2021 essay, I argued that Crawford probably has modest real-world effects. Crawford articulated a right that criminal defendants can exercise only at trial. In an adjudicatory system bereft of trials, trial rights don’t count for much. They impact plea outcomes only when they confer bargaining power sufficient to offset prosecutors’ …
Brokered Abuse, Thomas E. Kadri
Brokered Abuse, Thomas E. Kadri
Scholarly Works
This chapter examines how data brokers, companies that collect, sell, and trade personal information, enable and intensify interpersonal abuse. The article analyzes the data brokerage industry’s role in undermining personal obscurity, the relative safety that comes from being difficult to find or understand, and explores how current laws not only fail to address these harms but can make them worse. The chapter argues that existing privacy regimes, particularly those requiring victims to request data removal from individual brokers, impose psychological burdens and can retraumatize victims.
The Periphery Of Bankruptcy Law: The Importance Of Non-Bankruptcy Issues In Consumer Bankruptcy, Pamela Foohey
The Periphery Of Bankruptcy Law: The Importance Of Non-Bankruptcy Issues In Consumer Bankruptcy, Pamela Foohey
Scholarly Works
One in eleven Americans have filed bankruptcy at some point during their lives. Based on the number of consumer bankruptcy cases initiated during the past several decades, about one million individuals will file every year. This makes bankruptcy courts the leading federal courts with which people have contact. Embedded in people’s cases are a host of legal issues that do not directly implicate bankruptcy law, such as the interpretation of states’ exemptions laws and Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the avoidance of liens, and defenses to contract claims. Consumer bankruptcy law, via its process, is intertwined with the …
Distinguishing Privacy Law: A Critique Of Privacy As Social Taxonomy, Maria P. Angel, Ryan Calo
Distinguishing Privacy Law: A Critique Of Privacy As Social Taxonomy, Maria P. Angel, Ryan Calo
Scholarly Works
What distinguishes violations of privacy from other harms? This has proven a surprisingly difficult question to answer. For over a century, privacy law scholars labored to define the illusive concept of privacy. Then they gave up. Efforts at distinguishing privacy came to be superseded at the turn of the millennium by a new approach: a taxonomy of privacy problems grounded in social recognition. Privacy law became the field that simply studies whatever courts or scholars talk about as related to privacy.
And it worked. Decades into privacy as social taxonomy, the field has expanded to encompass a broad range of …
Section 230 Reform, Liberalism, And Their Discontents, Mateusz Blaszczyk
Section 230 Reform, Liberalism, And Their Discontents, Mateusz Blaszczyk
Scholarly Works
The Section 230 debate is a proxy for reevaluating constitutional fundamentals. The modern right and the modern left, both attacking Section 230, have abandoned liberalism, together with free speech, public private divide, and the politics of neutrality. Instead of believing in First Amendment value pluralism, each side of the spectrum wishes to realize their own positive normative vision for the political community which, today, is largely defined in the realm of digital culture. Each side recognizes the political other as an enemy to their own utopia, wishing to control, censor, or simply become sovereign thereover. These existential politics of the …
Trustless Trust And Antitrust: A Synthesis, Mateusz Blaszczyk
Trustless Trust And Antitrust: A Synthesis, Mateusz Blaszczyk
Scholarly Works
Authors have written of antitrust law’s demise in the face of blockchain, which, seemingly, achieves the pro-competitive ends of the law through technology and private ordering. Permissionless blockchains in particular are said to offer a vision of radical disintermediation and a break with the platform economy troubling the regulators today. At the same time, blockchain supposedly presents challenges to antitrust doctrine, from the most basic of concepts to the viability of enforcement and remedies. Finally, blockchain community governance is said to allow for private ordering of antitrust, i.e., enforcement of rules attempting to protect competition, which are at the same …
Taxing Dirty Luxuries, Victoria J. Haneman
Taxing Dirty Luxuries, Victoria J. Haneman
Scholarly Works
Dirty luxuries are items that are pleasant or nice to have, not necessities, that absolutely bludgeon the environment. From the merely affluent to the ultra-rich, consumers enjoying dirty luxuries, such as luxury clothing, private jets, superyachts, SUVs, and vacation cruises, drive one of the most polluting types of consumption on the planet. This Article explores the climate costs of dirty luxuries, considers the current and proposed international efforts to address the climate impact of these luxuries, and proposes structures by which these luxuries may be taxed to either reduce consumption or compensate for negative externalities.

Panik V. Tmm, Inc., 139 Nev. Adv. Op. 53 (Nov. 30, 2023), Evan Callahan
Nevada Supreme Court Summaries
Anti-SLAPP statutes in Nevada follow a two-pronged analysis. The first prong asks whether the moving party has established, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the claims are based upon a good faith communication in furtherance of the right to free speech in direct connection with an issue of public concern. Similarly, the defendant must establish that the communication is truthful or was made without knowledge of its falsehood. The second prong asks whether the plaintiff has demonstrated with prima facie evidence a probability of prevailing on its claims. Anti-SLAPP statutes are not limited to specific kinds of claims for …

Mccord V. State, 139 Nev. Adv. Op. (Dec. 28, 2023), Evan Sommer
Nevada Supreme Court Summaries
In the case of McCord vs. State, the Nevada Supreme Court clarified the interpretation of NRS 482.275(4) regarding license plates.2 The court ruled that a license plate frame partially covering the plate does not constitute “foreign material” making the plate illegible. Furthermore, it established that such a circumstance does not provide probable cause for a traffic stop. This decision addressed the issue of what constitutes a violation of the license plate visibility law, directly impacting the legitimacy of the traffic stop done by the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office on Mr. McCord and the subsequent evidence obtained, leading to the reversal …

On the subject of abortion, the so-called “United” States of America are becoming more disunited than ever. The U.S. Supreme Court’s precipitous decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization overturned the nationwide framework for abortion rights that had uneasily governed the country for fifty years. In the immediate aftermath of that decision, it is becoming increasingly clear that states governed by Republicans and those governed by Democrats are moving quickly and decisively in opposite directions. Since the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear the Dobbs case, at least twenty-four states have enacted statutes or state constitutional provisions restricting abortion …

This research proposes a permissioned blockchain framework to enhance ERP auditability by creating immutable, transparent, and traceable records of all system transactions and modifications. The study addresses critical gaps in current ERP systems where transaction histories can be altered, audit trails prove insufficient, and compliance verification remains cumbersome. Through examination of existing ERP limitations and blockchain capabilities, we develop an integrated architecture that maintains operational efficiency while providing cryptographic assurance of data integrity. Our framework employs …

There is a growing need for school districts to identify additional strategies to support the work-related stress and emotional labor ingrained in an early educator’s career. By orienting early childhood education (ECE) staff to mindfulness practices, education leaders may identify new approaches to assist early childhood educators’ well-being, building healthy work atmospheres, and activities to shift the culture in early childhood settings. This study employs a qualitative exploratory research design, specifically video documentary methodology to better understand how early childhood educators experience a mindfulness-based professional development (MBPD) program designed for ECE staff, explore what they say education leaders should know …
Effect Of A Brief Coping Intervention On Activity Of Target Organs Of The Sympathetic And Parasympathetic Nervous Systems During Stress, Kyle P. Rawn
Theses and Dissertations--Psychology
Stress is a critical aspect of the human experience and how an individual responds to stress can shape future outcomes, such as physical and mental health, as well as shape the patterns of stress responding that persist throughout one’s lifespan. Coping is a central element of stress responding and can strongly influence the outcome of the stress process. Successful coping can alleviate stress, but ineffective coping may lead to less-than-optimal responding. For example, aspects of the biological stress response, such as activity of target organs for the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, have important implications for future susceptibility to health …
Hormonal Effects On Adhd Symptoms In Adolescents Across The Menstrual Cycle, Ashley G. Eng
Hormonal Effects On Adhd Symptoms In Adolescents Across The Menstrual Cycle, Ashley G. Eng
Theses and Dissertations--Psychology
Background: Females with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) become particularly impaired during adolescence, experiencing increased rates of depression and anxiety, as well as important public and personal health outcomes like increased suicide attempts, risky sexual behavior, and substance use. However, female-specific risk factors for ADHD have been vastly understudied despite this increased impairment and comorbidity. One particularly understudied risk factor is the dramatically rising and fluctuating levels of ovarian hormones during late puberty that begin cycling monthly. In adult women, rapid decreases in estrogen levels increase risk for ADHD symptoms across the menstrual cycle, particularly for those with high trait impulsivity. Preliminary …

A Mixed-Methods Study Exploring Free Nicotine Replacement Therapy As A Strategy To Promote Tobacco Treatment Equity At Cancer Center Cessation Initiative Sites, Marguerite A. Webster
Theses and Dissertations--Psychology
Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) is a safe, efficacious smoking cessation treatment for cancer patients; however, equitable access is limited due to insurance gaps. Offering free NRT to patients with cancer has potential to increase tobacco treatment engagement and promote equity. This mixed-methods study aims to describe how some Cancer Center Cessation Initiative (C3I) sites implemented free NRT within their tobacco treatment programs (TTPs) to inform future development of equitable TTPs. Participating sites’ (N=9) TTP and patient population characteristics were assessed via survey and analyzed with descriptive statistics. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 individuals and analyzed using directed …

Intimate Partner Violence And Parent Perceptions Of Their Emotional Bond To Their Children, Lia T. Mclanahan
Intimate Partner Violence And Parent Perceptions Of Their Emotional Bond To Their Children, Lia T. Mclanahan
Doctor of Psychology (PsyD)
As research on intimate partner violence (IPV) continues to grow and there are more ways of defining IPV and identifying its differing forms, a related topic of interest has become the impact IPV has on families (Fong et al., 2019). Similarly, research on IPV as a form of trauma and its implications is well-researched for both children and adults, as is the research on trauma and attachment (Cook et al., 2017). However, there seems to be a lack of research on how parent–child attachment is predicted by IPV. The present study aimed to assess how parent perceptions of their level …
