Trust, Culture, And Conversation: How Athletic Training Leaders Navigate High-Stakes Interactions, Nicole A. Wilkins, Ashley B. Thrasher, Ericka P. Zimmerman

Clinical Practice in Athletic Training

Introduction: Engaging in difficult conversations is central to leadership growth and requires sustained effort to refine and strengthen these skills. Leaders not only need to navigate the complexities of their role within an organization, but also the intersectionality of interpersonal dynamics, emotional intelligence, structural hierarchies, and the nuanced environments that influence how communication occurs. Furthermore, leaders must adapt to role expectations that shift across clinical, academic, and administrative contexts, adjusting their approach to engaging in conversations based on these complexities. As part of a larger research project examining difficult conversations, this portion of the study explored how leaders in athletic …

High School Teachers’ Perspectives Of Middle School Biomedical Science Career Exploration Programs, Stephanie Gurule-Leyba

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

Biomedical sciences (BMS) are a common career pathway for U.S. Hispanic high school students interested in pursuing healthcare careers. Little was known about how middle school career exploration programs in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics motivate Hispanic students to continue pursuing BMS careers. The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to explore high school teachers’ perspectives of how middle school BMS career exploration programs can motivate Hispanic students’ interest in BMS careers. The study was grounded in Keller’s attention, relevance, confidence and satisfaction motivation model. Thirteen high school BMS teachers, who have taught or are currently teaching the PLTW …

Using Facial Landmarks For Lip Motion Interpretation Applications, Kimi S. Wright

Theses and Dissertations

Facial motion, particularly lip movement, carries rich information about human speech that can be leveraged for a variety of computer vision and speech-processing tasks. Unlike other pixel-based methods, this work investigates the use of facial landmarks as a compact, privacy- preserving, and computationally efficient representation for lip-motion analysis. We evaluate landmark-based models across multiple tasks, including visual voice activity detection (VVAD), lip–audio synchroniza- tion, and visual speech recognition (VSR) for liveness detection. Using LRS3-VVAD1 and LRS22 datasets, we demonstrate that landmark-only models can achieve performance comparable to pixel-based systems for VVAD and synchronization, while significantly reducing parameter counts and inference …

The Effectiveness Of Mode Deactivation Model Group Counseling In Improving The Emotional Wellness Of Junior High School Students, Ananda Dwi Rahmadanti, Muya Barida, Sri Hartini, Aprilia Setyowati

Buletin Konseling Inovatif

This study was motivated by the low level of emotional wellness among some junior high school students, characterized by difficulties in recognizing, understanding, and managing emotions adaptively, thereby impacting social behavior and learning processes at school. Previous studies have shown that emotion regulation-based interventions are effective in improving adolescents' emotional well-being. However, counseling interventions in schools that specifically target emotional regulation patterns to improve students' emotional wellness are still relatively limited in guidance and counseling services. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effectiveness of group counseling using the Mode Deactivation Counseling (MDC) model in improving the emotional wellness of …

Viabilitas Neutrofil Yangdiinkubasi Dalamekstrakrimpangtemulawak(Curcuma Xanthorrhiza ) Dan Dipapar Dengan Streptococcus Mutans (Viability Of Neutrophil Incubated In Temulawak Rhizome Extract (Curcuma Xanthorrhiza) And Exposed By Streptococcus Mutans), Ika Wahyu Purnamasari, Pudji Astuti, Tantin Ermawati

Dentofasial

Streptococcus mutans are bacteria that have important role in caries development. When caries lesion is developing, it
may invade to deeper tissues such as dental pulp and initiate cellular defenses such as neutrophil. Neutrophil is type of
leukocytes which are important in phagocytosis process. If neutrophil fails in phagocytosis, neutrophil will be lysis and
cause viability of neutrophil unprotected. Temulawak rhizome extract is predicted to increase viability of neutrophil
because it contains curcuminoids, volatile oil, saponin, flavonoid, and tannin. This research aimed of this research was
to determine the viability of neutrophil exposed by S.mutans and incubated in temulawak rhizomes …

Patients with visual impairment experienced debris, calculus and a high index of oral hygiene. Low salivary flow and
difficulty in cleaning the oral cavity in patients with visual impairment caused high accumulation of plaque that causes
a decrease in the pH of saliva. Low pH of saliva affects the balance of the composition of inorganic email. Calcium is
the largest inorganic content of the email, thus dissolving calcium email can be an indication of enamel
demineralization. This study aimed to determine the solubility of calcium in saliva of blind patients, and salivary pH
