Negotiating Fatherhood: Young Men’S Narratives Of Care, Responsibility, And Struggle In A Low-Income South African Setting, Urlridge A. Thompson Dr, Tshepang Headman Mr, Leballo Tjemolane Mr, Lukhanyo H. Nyati Dr

Journal of Social, Behavioral, and Health Sciences

Financial provision continues to factor significantly in how Black men perceive and enact fatherhood, influencing the extent and manner of their paternal engagement. The enduring representation of men primarily as financial providers constrains the generation and enactment of alternative modalities of fatherhood within families and society. This qualitative study explored how the everyday lived experiences of young Black men in Soweto, South Africa, influence their varied engagements with fatherhood as they navigate structural constraints to pursuing their ideal of fatherhood. An exploratory descriptive qualitative approach was employed. We conducted two sets of semi-structured interviews with 19 young Black men in …

Engaging Underrepresented 11- To 14-Year-Olds In Music: An Autoethnographic Case Study Of A New Inner-City Afterschool Group Piano Program, Eden A. Brown

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

Research in music education has documented the underrepresentation of Black students in formal music study in the United States, shaped by economic and cultural barriers (Elpus & Abril, 2024; Alegrado & Winsler, 2020). Access to piano instruction is often limited by the high cost of lessons and instruments, inequitable school funding, and the absence of culturally responsive curricula that reflect the experiences of minority students and families. Traditional piano pedagogy rarely addresses this absence, leaving the piano both symbolically and practically distant for many potential musicians in the United States. This autoethnographic case study chronicles the development, launch, and first …

Integrating Interferon Gamma Receptor Pathways, Antigenicity, And Immune Contexture As Predictors Of Immunotherapeutic Strategies For Mucosal Melanomas, Matilde Monti, Jinglun Li, Obi Griffith, Malachi Griffith, William Vermi, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

BACKGROUND: Mucosal melanomas (MM) arise from mucosal melanocytes at various anatomical sites. These tumors are rare, highly aggressive, and often associated with poor outcomes. Current treatments, including immune checkpoint inhibitors, show limited efficacy in advanced disease. Compared with cutaneous melanomas, there is a lack of data on the immunogenicity and interferon (IFN)-γ sensitivity of MM. In this study, we examined these features in sino-nasal melanomas (SN-MM) cell lines and clinical samples using microscopy and functional genomics.

METHODS: The immune contexture of SN-MM was analyzed by immunohistochemistry on 48 tumor biopsies. RNA sequencing and mass spectrometry-based proteomic approaches were used to …

Assessing The Presence Of Biasing And Non-Biasing Unblinding In A Randomized Controlled Trial Of A Home-Use Tdcs Device: An Exploratory Analysis, Fredrik Hieronymus, Nathan T M Huneke, Daniel Månsson, Erik M Rehn, Melker Hagsäter, Jair C Soares, Rodrigo M Vieira, Sudhakar Selvaraj, Cynthia Fu

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Background: Better-than-chance guessing of treatment assignment raises concerns about unblinding as this opens efficacy estimates up to being influenced by factors other than the true efficacy of the intervention. However, such accuracy does not necessarily indicate that efficacy estimates are biased.

Objective: To assess whether unblinding was biasing (impacting on efficacy estimates) or non-biasing (not impacting on efficacy estimates) in a sham-controlled trial of a home-use transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) device, in which treatment allocation guesses at endpoint were unbalanced.

Methods: Interrelations between i) treatment allocation, ii) treatment allocation guesses, iii) adverse event reports, and iv) depressive symptom severity, as …

Kennelly V. Mid Coast And The Maine Law Court's Erroneous Ruling On The Discoverability Of Redacted Patient Info, John Blegen

Student Journal of Information Privacy Law

This paper examines a recent Maine Law Court decision, Kennelly v. Mid Coast, in which the Law Court held that the medical records of individuals not involved in a lawsuit, even when redacted of identifying materials, are protected from discovery orders in a malpractice lawsuit, where the records would be used to demonstrate a standard of care to be expected of the administering doctor. It then examines the privacy interests individuals retain in their redacted healthcare records more broadly, in part to emphasize the large variety of contexts in which this issue can come up, and also to show how …

Bridging The Gap: Early Childhood Reading Instruction Grounded In The Science Of Reading, Delilah A. Davis Gonzales, Ingrid Haynes Ph.D.

Journal of Curriculum, Teaching, Learning and Leadership in Education

The Science of Reading (SoR) has become central to literacy research and practice, yet many early childhood classrooms struggle to integrate its principles in developmentally appropriate ways. Recent advances in cognitive science, culturally relevant pedagogy, and digital literacy highlight the need for instructional approaches that bridge research and practice. This manuscript examines how the five core components of reading—phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, comprehension, and fluency—can be meaningfully implemented in early childhood education through structured literacy practices that remain play-based and culturally sustaining. A qualitative, illustrative approach is used, drawing from classroom-based case examples, professional observations, and current research. These examples …

The Transformative Power Of Concepts Of Print: Connecting Theory, Practice, And Professional Development To Advance Early Literacy, Cheryl R. Couch

Journal of Curriculum, Teaching, Learning and Leadership in Education

Abstract Many kindergarten students continue to enter school below literacy readiness benchmarks, notably lacking Concepts of Print skills despite decades of research affirming their role as predictors of later reading achievement (Economic Policy Institute, 2015; Justice & Ezell, 2001; Justice & Sofka, 2010; National Survey of Children’s Health, 2022). Concepts of Print provide the foundation for children’s understanding of how print works, laying the groundwork for decoding, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension (Lentsch, 2018; Moats, 2023a; National Research Council, 2000). This mixed-methods historical reflective report examines explicit Concepts of Print instruction through two cases: archival records from a 2003–2004 kindergarten classroom …
