Reflecting On Teaching Together And Alone: Preservice Teachers’ Processes Of Knowledge Construction In Writing And Discussion, Ulrike Hartmann, Marcus Kindlinger, Kati Trempler, Anna-Lena Molitor, Helenrose Fives
Department of Educational Foundations Scholarship and Creative Works
Understanding how preservice teachers (PSTs) engage with knowledge of educational sciences through reflective practice is critical to improving teacher education. This study investigates how PSTs construct knowledge when analyzing a complex classroom situation and explores how a reflective task format—individual essay writing or collaborative group discussion—shapes the types and quality of knowledge construction processes involved. Drawing on frameworks of reflective practice and epistemic cognition, we developed a coding scheme to identify five knowledge construction processes and three levels of implementation quality. Using data from a university-based teacher education course, we applied this scheme to PSTs’ written essays and transcribed group …

Adjudicating Atrocity: Reading Hitesh Verma V State Of Uttarakhand As A "Landmark" Case In The Judicial Discourse On Caste Violence, Tejaswi Chhatwal
Adjudicating Atrocity: Reading Hitesh Verma V State Of Uttarakhand As A "Landmark" Case In The Judicial Discourse On Caste Violence, Tejaswi Chhatwal
Socio-Legal Review
This article critically examines the Supreme Court’s judgment in Hitesh Verma v State of Uttarakhand (2020) and argues for reading it as a “landmark trial” in the judicial undoing of reform—namely, the statutory changes introduced by the 2016 Amendment to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act 1989. Existing socio-legal scholarship on atrocity jurisprudence has shown that the judicial understanding of caste violence and doctrinally instituted evidentiary standards have historically operated to invisibilise caste from crime’s framework. As a result, most instances of caste-based discrimination and violence have not been named as offences of “atrocity” under the …
Denial And Attribution Strategies In Saudi Judicial Rulings On Cybercrimes: A Forensic Linguistic Analysis, Bandar Subail Al-Shammari Dr.
Denial And Attribution Strategies In Saudi Judicial Rulings On Cybercrimes: A Forensic Linguistic Analysis, Bandar Subail Al-Shammari Dr.
Journal of Arabic Sciences and Humanities
This research examines the linguistic strategies employed by defendants in cybercrime cases within the Saudi judicial system to deny responsibility or shift it elsewhere, based on a sample of documented court rulings issued between 1433 and 1435 AH. The rulings reveal recurring patterns of denial, such as claims of shared use of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or devices, or reliance on moral, religious, and cultural justifications. The study employs a composite theoretical framework that integrates Speech Act Theory, evidentiality, epistemic modality, and critical discourse analysis. The findings indicate that judges give greater weight to direct technical evidence when it conflicts …
Rejecting The Unitary Executive, Christine Kexel Chabot
Rejecting The Unitary Executive, Christine Kexel Chabot
Utah Law Review
Critics have dismissed originalism as an empty methodology. They claim it is incapable of resolving our most important constitutional disputes, including the debate over the unitary executive. While unitary scholars assert that Article II grants the President an indefeasible power to remove all subordinates at will, their purportedly originalist interpretation conflicts with significant historical evidence. The Supreme Court’s apparent move toward an indefeasible removal power has proceeded as though this underlying historical indeterminacy is either irrelevant or does not exist. This Article offers a new way to bridge the disconnect between historical disputes over the unitary executive and public meaning …

Econometric Analyses Across The Continuum Of Care For Individuals With Hearing Loss, Teresa I. Anthony
Econometric Analyses Across The Continuum Of Care For Individuals With Hearing Loss, Teresa I. Anthony
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Hearing loss affects individuals across the age span and, if left untreated, can lead to developmental delays and health and well-being concerns. This dissertation applies econometric analyses to investigate factors influencing diagnostic outcomes in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), intervention enrollment rates among babies with permanent childhood hearing loss (PCHL), and utilization and hospitalization outcomes among adults with sensory impairment (SI). The first study evaluates the cost-effectiveness of automated auditory brainstem response (aABR) versus transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE) for newborn hearing screenings in a Thailand hospital NICU. Decision tree modeling and economic evaluation suggested that although aABR is …

The Rhetorical Manifestation Of Circumstantial Particles In The Quranic Context An Analytical Study In Selected Aspects Of The Science Of Rhetoric, Abdulrahman Bin Hilal Abdulrahman Al-Harbi
The Rhetorical Manifestation Of Circumstantial Particles In The Quranic Context An Analytical Study In Selected Aspects Of The Science Of Rhetoric, Abdulrahman Bin Hilal Abdulrahman Al-Harbi
UB Journal for Humanities
This study examines the rhetorical indications of the preposition (fī / “in”) in the Qur’anic discourse. Traditionally, scholars have limited its meanings to container circumstantiality, spatial circumstantiality, and temporal circumstantiality. However, evidence shows that the particle carries additional meanings, especially in the Qur’anic context—particularly when it governs an intransitive verb, or when it governs a verb that is usually connected with a different preposition. Such usages led to differences among scholars regarding its interpretation. Some linguists and jurists viewed these cases through the lens of implication (taḍmīn), where the verb assumes the meaning of another verb. Others considered them as …
Intercultural Communicative Competence In Saudi University Efl (2015-2025): A Scoping Review, Rehan Almegren
Intercultural Communicative Competence In Saudi University Efl (2015-2025): A Scoping Review, Rehan Almegren
UB Journal for Humanities
This review synthesizes findings of empirical research on Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) from 2015 to 2025 in Saudi university EFL contexts. It included research that covered mixed-method, quantitative, qualitative, and investigations that use ICC frameworks, such as Byram’s model and Bennett’s DMIS which are international, to apply to local educational contexts. Findings show a gap between teachers’ theoretical support for integrating culture and how it is implemented in classrooms, compelled by curriculum demands, sensitivities around cultural content, and limited teacher training. Learners often struggle with pragmatics in aspects like politeness strategies and appropriate speech acts which highlights the necessity for …
Pragmatic Competence Of Saudi Female Efl Learners: A Modality-Based Study Of Conversational Implicatures, Afnan Almegren
Pragmatic Competence Of Saudi Female Efl Learners: A Modality-Based Study Of Conversational Implicatures, Afnan Almegren
UB Journal for Humanities
The comprehension of conversational implicatures is a significant challenge for second language learners. Although some previous research has investigated this area, limited studies have compared how comprehension is influenced by the modality of input. This study seeks to determine the extent to which Saudi female BA-level EFL learners’ comprehension scores differ between reading and listening tests for each implicature subtype. It also examines how strongly individual learners’ subscale scores in the reading test predict their corresponding subscale scores in the listening test, and which implicature types display the greatest and least cross-modal consistency. A quantitative study was conducted with 60 …

The Relationship Between Income And Race With The Utilization Of Oral Health Services Among Older Adults, Mishael Smith
The Relationship Between Income And Race With The Utilization Of Oral Health Services Among Older Adults, Mishael Smith
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Oral health disparities continue to present a significant public health challenge for older adults in the United States, particularly among racial minority and low-income populations. Despite national discussions around healthcare equity, there remains limited empirical insight into how race and income influence dental service utilization among Medicare beneficiaries. In this quantitative, cross-sectional study, the extent to which these demographic factors predicted oral healthcare utilization, using nationally representative data from the 2021 Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey, was assessed. Guided by the social determinants of health framework, chi-square tests, binary logistic regression, and negative binomial regression were performed to analyze the data. …
Racial Noticing In Mathematics Teacher Education: Unpacking Southern White Christian Teacher Candidates' Reflections On Data Investigations Of Issues Of Systemic Racism, Liza Bondurant, Anthony Fernandes, Travis Weiland
Racial Noticing In Mathematics Teacher Education: Unpacking Southern White Christian Teacher Candidates' Reflections On Data Investigations Of Issues Of Systemic Racism, Liza Bondurant, Anthony Fernandes, Travis Weiland
Publications
In this article, we examine how southern white Christian secondary mathematics teacher candidates reflected on racial inequities in academic opportunities and school discipline after engaging with data sets highlighting such disparities. Using a lens of racial noticing, informed by Leonardo’s (2009) conceptualization of whiteness as a racial discourse that normalizes white dominance, we analyze candidates’ written reflections to identify how they interpreted and responded to issues of race in mathematics education. Two dominant themes emerged: the normalization of implicit biases and the tensions between aspiring to objectivity and acknowledging subjectivity in educational practices. Both patterns aligned with whiteness by obscuring …
Exploring The Black Woman Experience Related To Sexual Practice, Sexual Identity, And Sexual Expression: A Qualitative Study, Ashley V. Rodriguez
Exploring The Black Woman Experience Related To Sexual Practice, Sexual Identity, And Sexual Expression: A Qualitative Study, Ashley V. Rodriguez
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
This study revealed the complex interplay between personal identities and social constructs, focusing on Black-identifying women and their lived experiences with sex, sexuality, and sexual expression. Over centuries, societal influences depicted Black women as hypersexual, simultaneously exposing them to criticism, shame, and judgment for their sexual expression and meaning-making related to sex and sexuality. Consequently, Black women remain a high-risk demographic for unsafe sexual practices and sexually transmitted infections. Using intersectionality theory and Black feminist theory, this study explored how Black-identifying women give meaning to sex, sexuality, and sexual expression as they shape the Black feminine experience. I sought to …
Secondary World Language Teachers’ Perspectives On Gamification-Based Assessments, Taryn Thompson
Secondary World Language Teachers’ Perspectives On Gamification-Based Assessments, Taryn Thompson
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
The problem that was addressed through this study was that there was a gap in the literature about secondary world language teachers using gamification-based assessments and the influence on student learning. The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to explore teachers’ perspectives on the benefits and challenges of gamification-based assessments. The study was grounded in the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology, digital game-based language learning, and Krashen’s second language acquisition theory. To secure a sample of 12 participants for this study, purposeful and snowball sampling were employed, wherein potential secondary world language teachers were solicited through …

A Study Of The Engraving Time And Commentary Characteristics Of The Wujun Baohanlou Edition Of The Spectacles Of Ancient And Modern Times, Guofu Cheng
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
As the most influential selection of vernacular stories in late imperial China, The Spectacles of Ancient and Modern Times remains understudied compared to other venacular works. To date, no dedicated research article has examined its commentary. The commentary in the Wujun Baowenlou edition is highly innovative and distinctive, making it worthy of further study. This article examines the engraving time of this edition and proposes that it was published in the late Ming dynasty. Through literary statistics, this study analyzes its commentary forms, explores its commentary methods (including comparison, irony, and quotation), and examines its linguistic style (such as repetitive …
Atmosphere: The Charm Of Artistic Innovation In Lu Xun's Fiction―A Case Study Of Call To Arms And Wandering, Jinyan Li
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The concept of “great beauty without words” has been integral to Chinese literary theory since ancient times.

The Impact Of Big Five Personality Traits On Entrepreneurial Orientation, Moustafa Haj Youssef, Nagham Sayour, Naser Valaei, Hiba Hussein, Mostafa Harakeh
All Works
Our study explores the interplay between the Big Five Personality Traits (B5-PT) and Entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) among home and international entrepreneurs in the Middle East, focusing on Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates. Utilizing fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), we investigate how different combinations of personality traits influence EO in distinct entrepreneurial contexts. The findings reveal four universal configurations and four context-specific configurations that lead to high EO, highlighting the dynamic and configurational nature of entrepreneurial behaviour. For home entrepreneurs, high conscientiousness and agreeableness are key drivers of EO, reflecting a focus on collaboration and resource management within …
The Exploration Of The Housing Exclusion Impact Among Michigan Ex-Offenders, Jackie Adam Harris
The Exploration Of The Housing Exclusion Impact Among Michigan Ex-Offenders, Jackie Adam Harris
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Ex-offenders possibly felt excluded when private landlords or property managers conducted background checks and decided to immediately deny ex-offenders housing opportunities. The problem this study addressed was how landlords and property managers’ exclusion of ex-offenders impacted reentry post-incarceration. There was a gap regarding how Michigan private landlords impacted ex-offenders’ success factor in securing safe housing upon reentry back to society. The key findings related to the literature in ways that showed how landlords acknowledged outside biases, yet described ex-offender tenants as appreciative, positive, and respectful. The purpose of this general qualitative study was to explore how state and federal policies …
