The Impacts Of Coach-Athlete Relationships On Men’S Basketball Student-Athlete Mental Health Outcomes, Luke D. Martens

Leadership Education Capstones

The relationship between student-athletes and their coaches is dynamic and extends beyond sports performance. This connection holds significant implications for the mental health and overall well-being of student-athletes, shaping their experiences both on and off the court (Short, 2005). Coaches often serve as mentors, role models, and sources of support, influencing various aspects of athletes’ lives beyond their athletic endeavors (Burns, 2019). Understanding the intricacies of this relationship is crucial in addressing the mental health challenges that student-athletes may encounter throughout their academic and athletic journey.

2025 April - Tennessee Monthly Climate Report, Tennessee Climate Office, East Tennessee State University

Tennessee Climate Office Monthly Reports

Hi All,

April was a very active weather month across Tennessee! Consequently, this is one of our longer monthly reports. The main weather and climate stories for April 2025 were the deadly severe weather, extreme rainfall and associated flooding, and record-setting heat that all occurred in the first week of the month. A series of weather systems set up across the central U.S. in the first week of April, with warm, moist air funneled into Tennessee from the Gulf. This pattern produced severe thunderstorms, heavy rainfall, and high temperatures from April 2nd to 6th. The series of storms began on …

Together We Can! High School Algebra Plc Members’ Experiences On Implementing New Curriculum And Its Impact On Their Self-Efficacy, Chasity L. Hughes

Dissertations

When state or federal legislation adopts new standards, the workload falls on the teachers. Unfortunately, research has shown a decline in teachers’ preparedness due to the many changes in the standards for mathematics in Georgia in the last twenty years. Studies show that teachers have felt overwhelmed and stressed when implementing previous curriculum changes which have decreased the teachers’ self-efficacy levels. This calls for professional learning communities (PLCs) to provide improvement and sustainment in teachers’ self-efficacy in implementing the new curriculum. Little research has been done to describe the teachers’ experience with the recent change in Georgia's mathematics curriculum. There …

Pedagogical Virtues From The Situationist Insight: Virtuous Scaffolding And Sensitivity To Non-Epistemic Situational Factors To Learning, Noel L. Clemente

Philosophy Department Faculty Publications

This article explores two pedagogical virtues (intellectual virtues of a teacher) that arise from the insight that non-epistemic situational factors can affect students' epistemic judgements and behaviour. First, a virtuous teacher must be sensitive enough to these factors in order to take advantage of how they boost student learning. However, while cultivating a situationally and epistemically favourable environment for learning sounds sensible, teachers should not spoil their students by making them too dependent on these beneficial external factors. The virtuous teacher must also realize that these are only scaffolds; they do help students initially, but must eventually be removed to …

Mapping Organizational Theory With Scripts, Jose Eos R. Trinidad

Interdisciplinary Studies Faculty Publications

Organizational theory has developed in numerous directions that have been difficult to integrate. This review synthesizes them into seven perspectives, with theories focused within and beyond the organization (i.e., intra- and extra-organizational dynamics). It proposes the acronym SCRIPTS: structure, culture, relations, institutions, professions, transformation, and social conflict. Within organizations, structure focuses on theories of bureaucracy, management, routines, and decision-making while culture focuses on shared values, identity, climate, and sensemaking. Relations involve studies of interpersonal and interorganizational networks. Institutions focus on the macro-dynamics of fields and isomorphism, and micro-dynamics of entrepreneurship and inhabited institutions. Professions refer to psychological factors shaping individual …

Strategies such as cross-disciplinary collaborations, service-learning projects, partnerships with ethnic communities, and strategic use of social media amplify the impact of language education, demonstrating its value through tangible outcomes. This paper offers practical examples to showcase how Teaching as Advocacy revitalizes World …

Malware Classification Using Weighted Control Flow Graphs, Tjada Nelson

Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations

Malware remains a primary cybersecurity threat because traditional signature-based detection methods have difficulty matching the pace of evolving malicious code implementing complex obfuscation methods to evade detection. The current detection methods fail to identify new malware variations, which expose systems to damaging cyber attacks that result in major security breaches and delayed incident response capabilities. This research investigates the speed-performance gap between signature-based detection and control flow graph behavioral understanding through developing Weighted Control Flow Graph (WCFG), which merges structural program analysis with signature-based detection capabilities. The design science research method enabled this study to create two main research outcomes: …

Analyzing The Effectiveness Of Information Security Compliance On Cloud Based Small And Medium Enterprises (Smes), Kasie Kelvin Awagu

Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations

As cloud computing becomes integral to business operations, security compliance is crucial for the success and sustainability of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs). While cloud adoption offers cost efficiency, scalability, and operational flexibility, it also introduces regulatory and security challenges. Unlike large enterprises with dedicated compliance teams and substantial budgets, SMEs often lack the financial resources and expertise to implement security frameworks effectively. Compliance with industry standards such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIST 800-171, and PCI DSS is particularly difficult, yet non-compliance can result in severe financial penalties, reputational damage, operational disruptions, and heightened cyber risks. Despite growing regulatory …

Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations

Recent innovations in the field of deep learning and computational power, both in terms of hardware and software technology gave much-needed attention. Implementation of models by using the techniques has attracted a lot of researchers and is still one of the most widely used choices of cross-sectional researchers from medical as well as information system and science. The inherent characteristics of the data make contribution in determining the effectiveness of multi-stage learning in brain tumor classification by MRI medical images. Transfer learning models’ direct application is limited by variations in brain tumor MRI dataset’s image quality, resolution, contrast, noise, and …

Differential Privacy For Microdata Streams: Adversarial Approaches, Sean Mcelroy

Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations

Many attacks on personal privacy exist that create a variety of harm. As the world has become more interconnected, always-on, and real-time, many entities collect, aggregate, process, use, and disseminate the whereabouts, preferences, actions, and associations of humans everywhere that can subject them to surveillance, mistreatment, identity theft, and other invasions of our private lives. Laws, rules, and regulations have not protected fundamental rights of privacy, but where policymakers have failed, technological solutions have emerged. A significant development is e-differential privacy, a technique that can inject noise into data about individuals and their actions to strike a balance between the …

A Mixed Methods Comparative Analysis Of Organizational Incident Response To Solarwinds And Log4shell, Matthew Ryan

Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations

This mixed-methods sequential explanatory study investigated how cybersecurity professionals construct meaning during and after major cyber incidents, using the SolarWinds supply-chain attack and Log4Shell vulnerability crisis as paired case studies. Through quantitative surveys (N=31) followed by in-depth qualitative interviews (N=10) with incident responders and leaders, the research revealed systematic perception gaps that fracture along various demographics and roles. Technical staff anchored SolarWinds to its six-month dwell time while executives emphasized procurement timelines; practitioners quantified Log4Shell’s impact through unacknowledged labor hours while those uninvolved in that effort dismissed it as a non-incident. These divergences were not random recall errors but predictable …

How Technology Can Be Used To Reduce The Equity Gap In Healthcare For Underserved Communities, Richard Manprisio

Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations

There is an ever-increasing gap in the equality in healthcare received by people. Specifically, those that fall into what is considered the underserved population. Historically, underserved communities have not received the same level of healthcare as those in more affluent areas. While the geographic location is one factor that contributes to this inequity, it is by no means the only one. These multifactorial disparities extend beyond location to encompass systemic issues such as attitudes, knowledge, and possible lack of trust.

Technological advancements have been used to great success in the healthcare field. Devices such as the Internet of Medical Things …

Performance Measurement Of Bgp Extended With De-Facto Network Identification, Shawn Zwach

Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations

The Internet relies on the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) to share reachability information across the globe. This protocol has previously, intentionally or unintentionally, been misconfigured by its users. Although there are solutions proposed to improve the security of BGP, the adoption of those solutions is not universal. This study measured the performance impact of implementing a network identification mechanism in BGP messages by appending signature information within IPv6 extension headers. There was a statistically significant impact on the performance of the BGP speakers under test and further research is needed to determine if such an impact is worth it for …

The Impact Of Proptech And The Datafication Of Real Estate On The Human Right To Housing, Michele E. Gilman

All Faculty Scholarship

Proptech is undermining the human right to housing. Proptech is a term of art for the digital transformation of the real estate industry. It includes a range of real estate businesses engaged in development, financing, construction, management, and more. Proptech’s boosters promise frictionless and efficient housing markets. However, Proptech appears to be reinforcing existing power imbalances in real estate markets that are masked by the supposed objectivity and opacity of computer-generated processes. Meanwhile, countries across the globe face a profound housing crisis, with a lack of affordable and safe housing, high rates of homelessness, and rampant housing discrimination and segregation. …

A Peculiar Hobby: A Brief History Of Civil War Reenacting, Donald C. Matthews

Tenor of Our Times

This article explores the rise, development, and decline of Civil War reenacting as a uniquely American subculture. Originating in postwar commemorations and evolving into a widespread hobby during the Civil War Centennial, reenacting has served as a lens through which Americans engage with history, heritage, and identity. Drawing on historiography, cultural memory studies, and contemporary critiques, the paper examines how shifting demographics, changing cultural attitudes, and public controversies particularly around Confederate symbolism have shaped the trajectory of the hobby. While participation is declining, reenacting continues to reflect broader societal dynamics regarding how the past is remembered, performed, and contested.
