Educating The Whole Child: The Essential Role Of School-Based Mental Health Partnerships In Student Success, Kellye Palmer
Educating The Whole Child: The Essential Role Of School-Based Mental Health Partnerships In Student Success, Kellye Palmer
The Journal of Advancing Education Practice
Schools are uniquely positioned to serve as gateways for mental health access, yet many educational systems continue to treat mental wellness as secondary to academic instruction. This paper argues that school-based mental health partnerships are as essential to student success as physical education or standardized assessment. Drawing from the author’s experience coordinating behavioral health services within Baltimore County Public Schools, the discussion highlights how integrated partnerships between schools and clinicians reduce barriers to care, improve collaboration among educators and families, and foster early intervention. The paper also addresses the risks of unrecognized mental health needs being misidentified as behavioral or …

Medicaid Funding And Health-Related Social Needs: A Policy Analysis, Passion Ilea
Medicaid Funding And Health-Related Social Needs: A Policy Analysis, Passion Ilea
Dissertations and Theses
The U.S. has disproportionately high health care spending compared to other high-income nations and comparatively poor health outcomes. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) have recently increased emphasis on addressing Medicaid member social needs. CMS believes addressing health-related social needs (HRSN) may reduce costs and improve health outcomes for Medicaid members. CMS has begun to test theories regarding the impact of member HRSN on health care by designing federal mechanisms to address HRSN, such as in lieu of services and settings-funded services, and by encouraging state Medicaid programs to develop their own approaches, such as Flexible Services. Information …

Foregrounding Subplots And Shifting Practices In Co-Design: An Ethnographic Journey In A Chinese Village, Jingyuan Tan
Foregrounding Subplots And Shifting Practices In Co-Design: An Ethnographic Journey In A Chinese Village, Jingyuan Tan
IASDR Conference Series
Co-design is increasingly recognized as a means of public participation with the potential to bridge top-down policies and locally grounded change. Yet, when professional co-design practices remain aligned with dominant narratives of progress, they risk becoming instruments of govern mentality, reinforcing existing hierarchies and marginalizing local communities. This raises a critical question: how can co-design praxis disentangle itself from these narratives and attune to local competencies and imaginaries, particularly in rural contexts shaped by centralized governance? This research is embedded in a two-year co-design initiative focused on age-friendliness improvements in a village in Southern China. It employs design ethnographic approaches …

Toward Robot-Driven Elderly Care Home Services And Systems In Hong Kong: An Ecosystem Perspective, Sanqi Yang, Jaehyun Park, Ting Han
IASDR Conference Series
In previous studies, researchers have highlighted the potential of robots and gerontechnologies to address the current caregiver shortage and enhance elderly care home services and systems. Yet most established robot-driven elderly care services and systems often fail to deliver value in actual service environments. Therefore, our study explores design features of robot-driven elderly care home services and systems from a service ecosystem perspective. To address this, we adopted an ecosystem theory incorporating economic, environmental, cultural, and social systems, and conducted multiple field observations in four care homes in Hong Kong. Surprisingly, we found most robot services and systems were overlooked …

Beyond Prefixes And Suffixes: A Systematic Literature Review Of Doctoral Education In Art And Design, Luke Feast
Beyond Prefixes And Suffixes: A Systematic Literature Review Of Doctoral Education In Art And Design, Luke Feast
IASDR Conference Series
This systematic review examines the literature on doctoral education in art and design. We analysed 1,086 publications to categorise different approaches to art and design doctorates. Our analysis reveals three distinct doctoral types aligned with different educational aims: knowledge development doctorates emphasising systematic research and theoretical contribution; social utility doctorates focusing on professional practice and practical application; and individual development doctorates prior it ising artistic self-discovery and creative expression. The apparent confusion in the field, reflected in debates about terminology such as "research through practice" versus "practice-based research," stems from fundamental disagreements about educational purposes rather than mere semantic differences. …

Artifacts As Mediators: Translating Co-Creation Into Organizational Well-Being In Chinese Soes, Ziwei Lin, Bicheng Wang, Jie Meng
IASDR Conference Series
In hierarchical organizations like Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs), top-down structures exacerbate employee burnout and challenge the democratic ethos of co-creation. This paper reports on a two-year Research through Design (RtD) project that navigated this tension by co-designing the Happy Doodle Toolkit (HDT), a low-tech wellness intervention. This study first surveyed burnout with 222 questionnaires and 40 interviews, then used an Analytic-Hierarchy co-creation workshop (3 psychologists, 2 executives, 2 employees) to develop the Toolkit. In a four-week pilot, 38 participants produced 152 doodle diaries and paired MBI-GS surveys; t-tests showed significant drops in emotional exhaustion and cynicism and a rise in …

The Good Move-In: Enhancing Voice And Participation In Transitions To Supported Housing, Line Gad Christiansen, Joan Pedersen
IASDR Conference Series
This project explores the complexities surrounding the transition of young adults with special needs into municipally operated supported housing in Denmark. This life-changing move is managed by local municipalities and ideally involves collaboration between the resident, their relatives, and a caseworker. Despite the intention of ensuring participation and involvement, practical and emotional challenges often limit meaningful inclusion. The project ’The Good Move-in’ enabled the researchers to examine how such transitions are currently handled and developed methods to strengthen the voice and self-determination of residents—particularly those with limited verbal communication. Through interviews, visual tools, and co-creative tasks—including a construction task—the project …
Designing Ai Based Service For Dementia Care Through Innovation Management Lens: A Model Of Trust Through Imperfect Technology, Chu-Yun Lin, Mimi Nguyen
Designing Ai Based Service For Dementia Care Through Innovation Management Lens: A Model Of Trust Through Imperfect Technology, Chu-Yun Lin, Mimi Nguyen
IASDR Conference Series
As AI technologies increasingly enter ethically sensitive domains like healthcare, questions emerge about how to design for trust, transparency, and appropriate human-AI interaction. This paper examines how imperfection in AI systems - when made interpret able and ethically governed - can become a design feature rather than a flaw, especially in the context of dementia care. Situated in Taiwan’s rapidly ageing demographic, the study engages with the dual tensions between technological efficiency and relational care. Through a quantitative survey (n=70) and statistical analysis, it interrogates how design strategies such as 'controllable imperfection' and 'exiting mechanisms' influence user trust, emotional attachment, …

Encountering Automation Surprise In Everyday Automated Driving: An Exploratory Phenomenological Inspired Study Using A Wizard‐Of‐Oz Vehicle On Real Motorways, Haoyu Dong, Yuanzi Wang, Pavlo Bazilinskyy, Miguel Bruns, Marieke Martens
IASDR Conference Series
Automation Surprise (AS) has traditionally been studied as a system‐ or user‐induced failure in high‐risk or safety‐critical domains. However, as automated vehicles (AVs) enter everyday mobility, wearguefora shift in perspective: from As as failure, to ASasalivedexperience. This study explores how ASunfolds during non‐critical automated driving, using a phenomenologically informed, design research approach. We conducted a Wizard‐of‐Ozstudy in which participants experienced automated driving on realroads. By mainly interpreting interview data, we show how subtle mismatches between AVbehaviouranduser expectations can trigger surprise, even when the system performs technically correctly. These moments involved embodied sensations, attentionalshifts, and sensemaking of the environment. We propose …

With children’s increasingly entangled relationships with technology, it is imperative for them to critically explore, reflect on, and envision how technology impacts them and society at large, now and in the future. We conducted a speculative filmmaking workshop with 9-10-year-old school children where participants worked in groups to envision the future of human-machine relationships, creating stop-motion animations showcasing their imagined futures. Analysis of the films highlights unexpected explorations of conflicts involving nature, alongside anticipated human-machine dynamics. These reveal children’s expectations for humans and machines and their roles and responsibilities. Our work showcases how speculative filmmaking with children scaffolds critical explorations …
Early Life And Post-Traumatic Growth Among Urban African Americans, J. Howard Streeter Iii
Early Life And Post-Traumatic Growth Among Urban African Americans, J. Howard Streeter Iii
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Post-traumatic growth (PTG) has received increasing attention in psychological research, yet the PTG experiences of African Americans remain underexplored. Trauma researchers have established the common prevalence of trauma within this population, but there have been very few studies on how African Americans traverse trauma according to PTG. Understanding PTG in this population is essential for clergy, coaches, parents, counselors, and others who work in these communities. The purpose of this quantitative survey study was to determine whether there was a statistically significant relationship between rumination, religious orientation, religious commitment, and stressful life events (SLEs) and PTG among urban African American …
Policy Design For Multiple Funding Flows Into Trump Accounts, Jin Huang, Michael Sherraden, Lissa Johnson
Policy Design For Multiple Funding Flows Into Trump Accounts, Jin Huang, Michael Sherraden, Lissa Johnson
Center for Social Development Research
The law creating the new Trump Accounts explicitly authorizes employers to provide deposits matching contributions that their employees make to the accounts and also authorizes contributions by philanthropic organizations. Both features are essential for building substantial lifetime assets for America’s children. Implementing them successfully – and ensuring that the funds reach every eligible child efficiently – will require an effective policy platform for routing, verifying, and reporting on third-party contributions. This brief discusses why traditional retail IRAs cannot support matching contributions and how to build a policy platform capable of accommodating multiple contribution streams.
Human Trafficking Simulation: Educational Tool For Developing Interprofessional Competencies, Kerri Anne Irwin, Kelly D. Caskey
Human Trafficking Simulation: Educational Tool For Developing Interprofessional Competencies, Kerri Anne Irwin, Kelly D. Caskey
Biennial Convention (CONV)
Introduction: This research is in response to the human trafficking (HT) crisis. HT affects an estimated 30 million people worldwide. Nurses are one of the few constant contacts within the hospital for these isolated victims. HT patients may feel protected under the trusted care of nurses (Morris, 2023). Raker (2023) found that “academic nursing programs represent an ideal environment to deliver human trafficking training to future graduate nurses.” The limited instruction for students led us to create an HT simulation that is being taught in a senior level nursing course.
The purpose of this research is to address the growing …
