Zen Via Zoom: Virtual Wellness Communities For Nurses During Times Of Social Isolation, Brittany P. Stoeckel

Creating Healthy Work Environments (CHWE)

Recent social distancing measures have changed how nurses are caring for their own mental wellbeing. With many gyms and yoga studios closed, virtual social networks paired with yoga and mindfulness education have helped nurses normalize their experiences, learn healthy coping skills and find social connection during the COVID pandemic. In recent months nurses have endured not just social isolation due to quarantine measures but also increased work-related stress. Technology has proven to be a powerful tool in creating a virtual community centered on yoga and mindfulness to help support the mental health of nurses during a global pandemic.

Emotional Response Of Students To Social Isolation, Teresa Teasley, Michelle E. Dykes

Creating Healthy Work Environments (CHWE)

Classes are now virtual. Students have returned home, missing friends and finding studying difficult. Whether a graduate student or an undergrad, they are probably feeling anxious, sad and uncertain. This poster will identify student stresses related to social isolation and ways educators can be proactive in helping students cope. Due to Covid-19 rates, educators are acknowledging that a permanent return to campus is unlikely. Some campuses have chosen to return to on-campus courses, others have not. Campuses are going back online due to increasing Covid-19 numbers. Educators need to be aware of student stresses and be equipped to help.

"Leadership On Steroids" Inpatient Nurse Managers' Experiences And Roles During Covid-19, Sue Bookey-Bassett, Nancy Purdy

Creating Healthy Work Environments (CHWE)

This paper describes leadership at one Canadian academic health sciences centre where we sought to understand how the pandemic impacted nurse managers' roles, strategies that were used to navigate organizational and patient care challenges, supports that were available and overall key learnings about these leadership roles during a pandemic. This paper presents novel findings regarding the leadership experiences and roles of inpatient nurse managers during the COVID-19 pandemic. To date most studies report how COVID-19 has impacted front-line staff. This work highlights the key roles that managers play in leading "behind the scenes" to support their staff and patients.

Leadership Crisis Communication During The Pandemic Of 2020, Daryl Watkins, Steven Walker

Publications

COVID-19 provided a unique opportunity to examine leadership communication strategies during an extended crisis. The authors used political discourse analysis to review the crisis communication of President Donald Trump and seven U.S. governors using the U.S. Center for Disease Control crisis communication framework. The findings demonstrated that U.S. governors typically used effective communication strategies during their press briefings. President Trump often did not use effective crisis communication. The governors’ crisis communication styles were consistent with the CDC’s guidelines. The governors’ communication styles demonstrate that they are “in the arena,” while President Trump has attempted to remove himself from the arena.

Excelsior: Leadership in Teaching and Learning

COVID-19 continues to impose dire consequences on all sectors of our public education system. Many students, particularly those from vulnerable populations, are receiving reduced amounts of direct instruction and are experiencing significant losses in learning. At the same time, educator preparation programs (EPPs) are struggling to ensure that teacher candidates have ample opportunities to apply their newly acquired pedagogical skills in high quality clinical placements. In this article we describe and provide exemplars as to how teacher candidates can serve as assets to school districts as they complete their field placements. We also offer specific strategies and practices for EPPs …

Deliberation On The Public Good During Covid-19: A Case Study Examining Elementary Students’ Use Of Civic Perspective-Taking, William Toledo, Esther Enright

The Councilor: A National Journal of the Social Studies

Abstract

Building on prior research on place-based social studies instruction (Toledo, 2017; 2020), this study specifically looks at data from six third-grade teachers who designed and implemented a civics curriculum focused on engaging students with a unit on locally-relevant public issues. The ten-lesson unit that the teachers and research team collaboratively developed was taught in six classrooms across a large school district. A central public issue in the unit was travel across borders during COVID-19, or simply the coronavirus as it was commonly referred to at the time. Students also considered tensions between immigration and containment of contagious illnesses through …

Biostatistics, Epidemiology & Environmental Health Sciences: Faculty Publications

The influences of environmental factors on COVID-19 may not be immediate and could be lagged for days to weeks. This study investigated the choice of lag days for calculating cumulative lag effects of ozone, PM2.5, and five meteorological factors (wind speed, temperature, relative humidity, absolute humidity, and cloud percentages) on COVID-19 new cases at the epicenter of Queens County, New York, before the governor’s executive order on wearing of masks in public places (1 March to 11 April 2020). Daily data for selected air pollutants and meteorological factors were collected from the US EPA Air Quality System, weather observation station …

Psychology Faculty Publications

he coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has brought about unprecedented uncertainty and challenges to the worldwide economy and people’s everyday life. Anecdotal and scientific evidence has documented the existence of a positive relationship between the experience of crisis and creativity. Though this appears to be ubiquitous, the crisis-creativity-well-being relationship has not been sufficiently examined across countries and using a working adult sample. The current study drew on a sample consisting of 1,420 employees from China (n = 489, 40% females), Germany (n = 599, 47% females), and the United States (n = 332, 43% females) to examine whether creativity can …

The Family-Directed Structural Assessment Tool: An Approach To Assisting Families Impacted By Covid-19, Tara Mclendon

Journal of Family Strengths

The COVID-19 pandemic jeopardizes many levels of society. The family unit, a foundation of societal structure and function, is particularly vulnerable to the unpredictability of this current crisis. The Family-Directed Structural Assessment Tool (FDSAT) offers a means by which service providers and families can reinforce structure within and around the family unit. This potentially offers a level of predictability and sense of safety during an extraordinarily challenging time. A brief history of the FDSAT is addressed, followed by an overview of tenets specific to the assessment tool. An in-depth case study is provided. This example demonstrates the use of FDSAT …

Infidelity In A Fast Paced Society, Gabriel Kua, Ralphael Joseph, Shaun Ng, Jozia Seet

Introduction to Research Methods RSCH 202

Abstract

There are many possible factors that cause individuals to commit infidelity in modern society. Since the studies that have measured the significance of the factors causing the act of infidelity are scarce, our study aims to investigate the potential causes of infidelity and measure the significance of the causes. Through our research, we have identified that COVID-19, social networking platforms, social status and income level, access to pornography, ethnicity, marital status, and sexual orientation are possible factors of infidelity acts. We have created an anonymous survey to investigate the causes, which will be measured by regression analysis. We plan …

Communicating Covid-19 Vaccines: Lessons From The Dengue Vaccine Controversy In The Philippines, Gideon Lasco, Vincen Gregory Yu

Development Studies Faculty Publications

As countries around the world begin to roll out COVID-19 vaccines; vaccine safety communication is more relevant than ever. The dengue vaccine controversy in the Philippines offers lessons that can be applied to immunisation programmes being organised today to address the COVID-19 pandemic. Effective vaccine safety communication entails (re)building relationships of trust between government and the public; upholding the credibility of scientific institutions and maintaining transparency. It also involves viewing health against the broader framework of equity; using an interdisciplinary approach to health communication and putting a premium on public feedback.
