Punishment Versus Hope: Perceptions Of Social Media Portrayals Of Restorative Justice, Emily E. Leonard
Butler Journal of Undergraduate Research
Research focused on the intersection of social media messages and perceptions of restorative justice has the potential to provide insight on criminal justice reform. In light of national conversations about mass incarceration, restorative justice has become a topic of conversation on social media, particularly among activists. This research utilized qualitative interviews (n = 20) to ascertain Gen Z college students’ familiarity with, understanding of, and interpretation of messages about restorative justice as portrayed in social media posts that they have been exposed to during the course of their everyday lives. The study found that most participants learned about restorative justice …
Infiltrating The Boys’ Club: The Portrayal Of Women In Popular Crime Dramas, Emma D. Bergquist
Infiltrating The Boys’ Club: The Portrayal Of Women In Popular Crime Dramas, Emma D. Bergquist
Butler Journal of Undergraduate Research
The present study examines whether there has been a change in the portrayal of female criminal investigators over the past two decades. Cultivation theory suggests that media profoundly influences the views of the larger society, thus indicating significant implications of this portrayal. Five popular shows (Chicago P.D., Criminal Minds, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Hawaii Five-0, and Law & Order: SVU) were explored, with 200 episodes examined between the series using a mixed-methods approach. The main characters in each show’s first season and most recent season were coded and analyzed. Characters were coded for depth, authority, helplessness, and sexualization, among other …
Psychosocial Student Adaptations To Covid-19 In Higher Education: A Mixed-Methods Approach To Covid-19 Through The Theoretical Framework Of Anomie, Grace Johnson

Can Time Really Heal: The Long-Term Impacts Of Joint Custody Arrangements, Savannah Mccullough
Can Time Really Heal: The Long-Term Impacts Of Joint Custody Arrangements, Savannah Mccullough
Liberty University Research Week
Due to a growing diversity of family structures, children grow up in a variety of living arrangements, especially if their parents are separated or divorced. The most common solution for these divorced families is joint custody or dual-residence arrangements, where children spend up to 50% of their time in each parent's household. The current literature on the effects of joint custody arrangements shows mixed results, for children's overall adjustment and well-being seem to depend more on moderating factors like the child's age, exposure to interparental conflict, and parent-child relationship quality. This thesis reviews the existing literature on the advantages and …
Worker Engagement In Faith-Based Nonprofit Organizations: The Roles Of Spirituality, Resilience, And Perceived Organizational Support For Engaging The Workforce, Beverly Webb
Liberty University Research Week
Nonprofit organizations rely heavily upon volunteerism and skilled employees willing to accept lower salaries to accomplish an organization's mission. Limited funding and surging needs in the nonprofit sector require a greater understanding of engaged workers to fully engage the workforce, where losses for nonengaged workers were estimated in the trillions globally. Research has supported the influence of spirituality, resilience, or perceived organizational support on worker engagement in for-profit and nonprofit organizations in varied settings. This study examined the relationships between spirituality, resilience, perceived organizational support, and worker engagement in Christian faith-based nonprofit organizations. Data was collected from two Christian faith-based …

A Qualitative Study Of College Students With Autism: Resilience And Spirituality, Benjamin Ellis
Liberty University Research Week
While research as been conducted on resilience and spirituality among parents of individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, there is a distinct lack of research examining these variables within the context of the direct experiences of individuals diagnosed with autism. The present study seeks to examine whether individual resiliency and spirituality play a role in the lives of college students with autism, as well as whether these factors contribute to the development of spiritual coping mechanisms. College students with autism may demonstrate how to strengthen their resilience and spirituality, as well as whether spiritual coping mechanisms are common among college …
The Relationship Between Social Media Usage, Loneliness, And Mindfulness In College Students, Edward Cook
The Relationship Between Social Media Usage, Loneliness, And Mindfulness In College Students, Edward Cook
Liberty University Research Week
In recent years, both social media usage and loneliness have been increasing for young adults. While previous work has revealed a relationship between social media usage and loneliness among young adults, the purpose of the current study is to examine if mindfulness mediates this relationship and if different types of social media engagement moderate this relationship. We hypothesize that higher social media usage will be related to higher loneliness, which will be mediated by lower mindfulness, and that specific types of social media engagement will moderate the relationship between higher social media usage and higher loneliness. Participants will complete a …

This case study fills a chasm by examining how the JROTC program measures up to the Congressionally mandated central mission statement of instilling in high school-aged youth, citizenship, personal responsibility, and a sense of accomplishment. The two theories guiding this study are Abraham Maslow’s motivational theory and Albert Bandura’s self-efficacy theory. …
Reinventing Holistic Healthcare: Pastoral Perspectives Of Biblical Insights For The American Healthcare System, Leanne Bergey
Reinventing Holistic Healthcare: Pastoral Perspectives Of Biblical Insights For The American Healthcare System, Leanne Bergey
Liberty University Research Week
The purpose of this case study is to examine pastoral perspectives of Biblical healthcare. These perspectives are essential to consider due to the long history of the connection between spirituality and healthcare and the church’s successful intervention worldwide for increasing healthcare outcomes. Although past research has acknowledged the American Christian Church maintains some involvement in healthcare within certain communities and cultures, there is little research understanding the pastoral views of reasoning for the involvement, especially across churches of many denominations. This study uses semi-structured interviews to examine the research questions of 1) What is the Biblical responsibility of healthcare? 2) …

Untangling The Knots: The Impact Of Counseling For Immigrant Minors, Belen Peredo Bruno
Untangling The Knots: The Impact Of Counseling For Immigrant Minors, Belen Peredo Bruno
Liberty University Research Week
This study aims to answer the question: What impact can psychological counseling have on immigrant minors? Previous research done on this topic has shown that many immigrant youths are encouraged by their family members not to talk and to forget about traumatic experiences that might have happened prior to their migration or during their journey to the United States. This encouragement of trauma repression can lead to the development of anxiety, depression, and even post-traumatic stress disorder, which negatively impacts any person’s well-being; even more so a child who is in a new country, learning a new language, and adapting …
Feelings Of Loneliness And Their Associations With The Type Of Social Media Use In College Students: Mixed Methods Study, Andrei Sigunov
Feelings Of Loneliness And Their Associations With The Type Of Social Media Use In College Students: Mixed Methods Study, Andrei Sigunov
Liberty University Research Week
The issue of loneliness remains a big concern for a number of people nowadays. Loneliness appears as a predictor and an outcome of many mental impairments. Response to loneliness may be observed from behavioral and physiological sides by exploring subjective feelings and autonomic nervous response. There is an increasing number of social media users which results in increased screen time. The evidence of these relationships is mixed. Whereas some articles suggest that time spent on social media has a negative impact on people and increases feelings of loneliness, other studies give evidence that it may help people maintain or even …
Generational Experiences Of Career Progression Barriers And Self-Efficacy In Black Professionals: Goals, Expectations, And Failures, Daphney Revolus
Generational Experiences Of Career Progression Barriers And Self-Efficacy In Black Professionals: Goals, Expectations, And Failures, Daphney Revolus
Liberty University Research Week
Career progression is a challenging process that requires time and effort. Today, the so-called corporate ladder has become much harder to climb. Professionals are now looking for opportunities for fast career growth; the desire for a ‘job for life’ no longer exists. Black professionals remain significantly underrepresented in mid- to senior-level management positions, despite the ever-increasing diversity rate in the United States over recent years. Generation X (born 1965-1980) and Millennials (born 1981-1996) are more motivated by progression in one’s career, while Baby Boomers (born 1946-1964) are more motivated by power in the workplace, and Gen Z (born 1997-2012) are …

Forgiveness And Religiosity Among Registered Nurses: A Correlational Study, Lora Mullen
Forgiveness And Religiosity Among Registered Nurses: A Correlational Study, Lora Mullen
Liberty University Research Week
Believed to be triggered by a stress response, the burden of unforgiveness can cause both physiological and psychological harm to the victim. This harm manifests itself in the form of depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, unresolved anger, sleep disturbances, immune suppression leading to increased risk of infection, increased cortisol levels, and cardiovascular changes leading to increased risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. As holistic care givers, nurses support and encourage patient health and wellness through personal participation of self-care initiatives, including forgiveness of self and others. In this correlational study, ninety-seven licensed, practicing registered nurses completed an online survey investigating …

Hpv Vaccine Hesitancy In The United States Among Black Americans And Christian Nationalists, Bridget Moyer
Hpv Vaccine Hesitancy In The United States Among Black Americans And Christian Nationalists, Bridget Moyer
Proceedings of GREAT Day
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection among sexually active individuals. Those infected are at risk for developing cancer of the genitals, cervix, anus, or throat. While the vaccine is safe and effective, as of 2020 only 58.6% of adolescents in the United States were up to date on HPV vaccinations. Endorsing Christian nationalist values is one of the top predictors of vaccine hesitancy in the U.S. The HPV vaccine is especially contentious among Christian nationalists due to its relation to sexual health. The influence of purity culture has created a culture of fear regarding sex and …
Laborers And Laundrymen: Sinophobia And The Formation Of American Masculinities, Adam Comstock
Laborers And Laundrymen: Sinophobia And The Formation Of American Masculinities, Adam Comstock
Proceedings of GREAT Day
This paper analyzes pre-existing scholarship and primary sources to connect 19th–20th century anti-Chinese sentiment to the notions of masculinity in the Americas. It takes a trans-national approach, examining Chinese labor migrations to both Anglo- and Latin-America and the effect they had on notions of gender. The paper argues that frontiersmen in the Americas, many of whom engaged in non-normative gender and sexuality practices, used anti-Chinese xenophobia to reinforce traditional masculinity. Connecting phenomena of race, gender, and sexuality, it takes an intersectional approach to history.

The Silent, Spoken Stress: How A Lack Of Dialogue Perpetuates Vocal Issues And Lowered Quality Of Life In Educators, Peighton Cervoni
The Silent, Spoken Stress: How A Lack Of Dialogue Perpetuates Vocal Issues And Lowered Quality Of Life In Educators, Peighton Cervoni
Proceedings of GREAT Day
This presentation examines the heavy burden of vocal issues and stress amongst educators in the Southern Tier of New York. Teachers are deemed one of the most at-risk groups of people for contracting vocal disorders according to the International Labor Organization (Araújo et al. 2008). Female teachers are disproportionately affected by vocal issues as caused by both biological and sociocultural factors. This disproportion then translates into their teaching, which then in turn affects their students’ learning and their job satisfaction. By incorporating evidence from articles, personal correspondence, and formal interviews with educators of various concentrations, this study demonstrates that teachers …
