Through A Glass Darkly: How Securities Disclosures Give A Distorted View Of The Economy, Gerald F. Davis

Seattle University Law Review

Our understanding of the American economy often relies on stylized facts derived from mandatory disclosures by listed corporations. Data vendors like Standard & Poor’s vacuum up 10Ks and proxy statements into databases, and scholars distill these into tentative maps. This may have been adequate for a postwar economy centered on asset-heavy manufacturers, but it is increasingly out of step with an information-based economy. Companies listed on the stock market are fewer in number and less representative than they were, light in tangible assets and people, and heavy on IP. Basic facts such as what industry they are in are increasingly …

Organic Social Media Strategy For The University Of Akron, Alexander Busch

Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects

This project develops a research-based organic social media strategy for the University of Akron, addressing the growing importance of digital communication in higher education and the need for authentic, student-centered engagement. Although the university maintains an active presence on platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and X, its current content often reflects a corporate tone that limits relatability and audience connection. This project proposes an alternative content strategy instead: organic advertisements. These are unpaid, and rely on the algorithm to be promoted. The project proposes a five-week content calendar featuring mascot-driven campaigns and event-based initiatives to strengthen brand identity and …

Ensuring The Health And Well-Being Of Children After Adoption, The Rees-Jones Center For Foster Care Excellence

White Papers and Policy Briefs

Children in foster care have higher rates of health concerns and healthcare utilization than their peers who have not experienced foster care. For example, one study found that children in foster care had 2.5- and 2.3-times higher odds of having a mental health diagnosis and developmental disability diagnosis, respectively. Data on our patient population supports these findings, revealing that 70.4% of our patients had chronic or complex chronic health conditions.

Of Race And Romance: A Qualitative Investigation Of Queer Asian American Men’S Romantic Relationships With Queer Asian American Men, Thomas P. Le, Xiaoyin Liu, Maya L. Chao, Sankeerthna Vedamtam, Sara N. Mayungo, Sasha M. Mikita

Psychology Faculty Research and Scholarship

Past research has identified that internalized racism affects Asian Americans’ dating preferences; however, fewer studies have sought to examine Asian Americans who choose to date one another. For queer Asian American men, dating fellow Asian American men may represent a rejection of idealizing White men in romantic relational contexts. The present study thus utilized a grounded theory qualitative methodology with a strengths-based approach to understand the lived experiences of queer Asian American men who are currently in romantic relationships with fellow queer Asian American men. Queer Asian American men who are in romantic relationships with other queer Asian American men …

From ‘Me’ To ‘We’: How Perspective Shifts In Language Can Shape Children’S Judgments About Kindness, Caring, And Inclusivity, Ariana Orvell, Ella Simmons, Valerie Umscheid, Giulia Elli, Susan A. Gelman

Psychology Faculty Research and Scholarship

Core to kindness, compassion, or consideration of others is the ability to move beyond one's own perspective to imagine how someone else would think or feel. We reasoned that subtle shifts in language may facilitate this process, hypothesizing that speakers who adopted a generalized perspective (generic you, we) versus an individual (me) or specific (another's name) perspective would be viewed by children as more kind, compassionate, and generous. We conducted three experiments with children 6-9 years of age (N = 376) as well as adults (reported in the Supplemental Materials; N = 781) to test this hypothesis. In Experiment 1, …

Can We Leave Ideology Behind? Diagnostic, Prognostic, And Motivational Action Frames In Tracking Radicalization And Deradicalization, Clark Mccauley

Psychology Faculty Research and Scholarship

Two recent publications attempt to support the usefulness of ideology in conceptualizing trajectories of radicalisation and deradicalisation in terrorism research. Both papers translate ideology as the three dimensions of social action framing: diagnostic, prognostic, and motivational framing. This Research Note reviews the two papers to show that the measurement potential of the three frames is being lost in efforts to preserve the value of the concept of ideology. The question is raised: can we give up talk about ideology in terrorism research?

Development Of Some Neural Network Models For Non-Negative Matrix Factorization: Dimensionality Reduction, Prasun Dutta

Doctoral Theses

Recent research has been driven by the abundance of data, leading to the develop- ment of systems that enhance understanding across various fields. Effective machine learning algorithms are crucial for managing high-dimensional data, with dimension reduction being a key strategy to improve algorithm efficiency and decision-making. Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) stands out as a method that transforms large datasets into interpretable, lower-dimensional forms by decomposing a matrix with non-negative elements into a pair of non-negative factors. This approach addresses the curse of dimensionality by dimensionally reducing data while preserving meaningful information. Dimension reduction techniques rely on extracting high-quality features from …

Anatomical Depiction: How Showing A Product's Inner Structure Shapes Product Valuations, Seo Yoon Kang, Junghan Kim, Arun Lakshmanan

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

Anatomical depiction is a technique where the product is decomposed into components that are spatially arranged in a layer-by-layer manner to visually explicate its inner structure. The authors demonstrate that anatomical depiction, compared to non-anatomical depiction, enhances product valuation. This effect occurs because anatomical depiction elicits a ‘coming together’ of the inner components in consumers’ minds thereby evoking a gestalt image of the product – a process labeled simulated assemblage. The elicitation of simulated assemblage in turn boosts their confidence in the product’s performance. Two field experiments first demonstrate that anatomical depiction leads to greater engagement in online settings such …

Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) are non-medical factors that influence a patient's health outcomes. The WHO Commission on Social Determinants of Health has stated that improving SDOH is one of the most effective means of enhancing the well-being of all individuals and reducing disparities (Chelak et al., 2023). Implementing increased screening measures to identify deficits can positively impact patient outcomes by providing crucial resources that address patients' needs. This approach can significantly enhance the quality of healthcare services (Wark et al., 2021). The purpose of this Doctor of Nursing Practice quality improvement project was to evaluate self-reported screening rates for …

Structured mentoring initiatives offer significant benefits for both mentors and mentees. They enable nurses to build professional connections while enhancing their skills. It is essential for nurses to receive thorough mentorship that not only hones their professional abilities but also considers their emotional well-being. An increasing amount of research highlights the beneficial effects of mentorship on various outcomes, such as role confidence, job retention, and overall career satisfaction. Most health care systems lack a mentoring program specifically tailored …

Base Building Evaluation: Three Opportunities To Improve Its Use And Relevance, Katie Fox, Margaret Post

Sustainability and Social Justice

Philanthropic support for grassroots organizing, power building, and community-led social change strategies has increased over the last 15 years. The election of Barack Obama in 2008 sparked greater interest in community organizing, and, with it, increased philanthropic investment in organizing as a strategy for social change (Rebanal, 2022; Suárez, 2012). With that has come a growing interest in evaluating and learning about practices of “base building,” a cornerstone of organizing efforts (Pastor et al., 2020). However, not all base building is the same, and there is a lack of understanding and clarity about base building definitions and practices within the …
