Growing Ethanol: An Analysis Of Policy Instrument Selection In The Fifty American States, Erin J. Holmes May 2009

Growing Ethanol: An Analysis Of Policy Instrument Selection In The Fifty American States, Erin J. Holmes

Theses and Dissertations

The need for a deeper understanding of public policy instruments is well established in public administration literature. Growth in ethanol and alternative fuel policy instruments across the country and the importance of these policies to national energy security only adds urgency to this need. Policy instruments are defined as tools governments use to address public policy problems. Public policy scholars traditionally focus on processes of policy making or the policies, with little attention paid to how governments accomplish policy goals. This dissertation shifts the focus to policy instruments to fill this void in public administration scholarship. It examines factors that …

Public Health Systems And Services Research: Dataset Development, Dissemination, And Use, F. Douglas Scutchfield, Nikki Lawhorn, Rick Ingram, Debra Joy Pérez, Rick Brewer, Michelyn Bhandari

Preventive Medicine and Environmental Health Faculty Publications

Public health systems and services research (PHSSR) is defined as "a field of study that examines the organization, financing, and delivery of public health services within communities and the impact of those services." PHSSR is a relatively young field and suffers from a paucity of research resources. In this article, we describe the development and utility of a data resource, housed on the Health Services and Sciences Research Resources website maintained by the National Library of Medicine, which provides easy access to instruments, indices, and datasets that are relevant to PHSSR researchers. We also investigate efforts to promote the use …


Support For Social Programs: Effects Of Class, Race, Political Ideology, And Poverty Beliefs, John Edwin Roller May 2009

Support For Social Programs: Effects Of Class, Race, Political Ideology, And Poverty Beliefs, John Edwin Roller

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations

This paper examines the main factors affecting support for social programs: class, race, political ideology, and beliefs about poverty. Using ordinary least squares regression (OLS) and bivariate correlation models, I examine how racial priming influences blacks' and whites' support for social programs such as welfare and unemployment. The premise of a racial primer is that people's racial attitudes or beliefs, overt or hidden, will be enhanced when reading information that confirms their attitudes or beliefs. While the racial primers did not directly influence support for social programs, they did moderate the independent variables' affect on the levels of support for …


Hand Hygiene Compliance Rates In The United States--A One-Year Multicenter Collaboration Using Product/Volume Usage Measurement And Feedback., Maryanne Mcguckin, Richard Waterman, John Govednik May 2009

Hand Hygiene Compliance Rates In The United States--A One-Year Multicenter Collaboration Using Product/Volume Usage Measurement And Feedback., Maryanne Mcguckin, Richard Waterman, John Govednik

College of Population Health Faculty Papers

Hand hygiene (HH) is the single most important factor in the prevention of health care-acquired infections. The 3 most frequently reported methods of measuring HH compliance are: (1) direct observation, (2) self-reporting by health care workers (HCWs), and (3) indirect calculation based on HH product usage. This article presents the results of a 12-month multicenter collaboration assessing HH compliance rates at US health care facilities by measuring product usage and providing feedback about HH compliance. Our results show that HH compliance at baseline was 26% for intensive care units (ICUs) and 36% for non-ICUs. After 12 months of measuring product …

Depression And Resilience During The First Six-Months Of Internship, Rachel Laff Apr 2009

Depression And Resilience During The First Six-Months Of Internship, Rachel Laff

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

Consistent with prior studies, the prevalence of depression in interns is significantly higher than the general population. There is a significant amount of suicidal ideation among interns during the first three-months of internship. It appears that international medical graduates are significantly less depressed than U.S. medical graduates during the first six-months of internship. A prior history of depression, longer work hours, female gender, and a lack of confidence in coping with challenges are associated with the development of depression during the first six-months of internship. Of greatest concern, very few interns with clinically significant levels of depression are seeking treatment. …

Actual Exploitation, Simulated Exploitation And A Tin Drum: A Comparative Analysis Of Child Pornography Law In The United States And Canada, Maurice "Mac" Verstandig Apr 2009

Actual Exploitation, Simulated Exploitation And A Tin Drum: A Comparative Analysis Of Child Pornography Law In The United States And Canada, Maurice "Mac" Verstandig

University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review

The United States and Canada two of the world's foremost modern, liberalized societies regularly combat an awkward and painful tension between free speech rights and the wellbeing of minors. Though there generally exists a consensus that child pornography represents a certain dark realm of material outside the oft-amorphous protections afforded speech, the establishment of an acceptable working definition of this criminal fodder has proven contentiously difficult. This paper explores each nation's struggles with this tension, through the lens of legislative efforts, judicial responses, and the productions that seem to perennially blur the line between art and crime. It is ultimately …
