Risk Factors Predictive Of The Problem Behavior Of Children At Risk For Emotional And Behavioral Disorders, J. Ron Nelson, Scott Stage, Kristin Duppong-Hurley, Lori Synhorst, Michael H. Epstein Jan 2007

Risk Factors Predictive Of The Problem Behavior Of Children At Risk For Emotional And Behavioral Disorders, J. Ron Nelson, Scott Stage, Kristin Duppong-Hurley, Lori Synhorst, Michael H. Epstein

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

Logistic regression analyses were used to establish the most robust set of risk factors that would best predict borderline/clinical levels of problem behavior (i.e., a t score at or above 60 on the Child Behavior Checklist Total Problem scale) of kindergarten and first-grade children at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders. Results showed that among the 11 risk factor domains considered, 5 were most predictive of borderline/clinical levels of problem behavior: externalizing behavior pattern, internalizing behavior pattern, early childhood child maladjustment, family functioning, and maternal depression. Within these 5 domains, the most robust set of individual risk factors were difficult …


Estimating Mandibular Motion Based On Chin Surface Targets During Speech, Jordan R. Green, Erin M. Wilson, Yu-Tsai Wang, Christopher A. Moore Jan 2007

Estimating Mandibular Motion Based On Chin Surface Targets During Speech, Jordan R. Green, Erin M. Wilson, Yu-Tsai Wang, Christopher A. Moore

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

Purpose: The movement of the jaw during speech and chewing has frequently been studied by tracking surface landmarks on the chin. However, the extent to which chin motions accurately represent those of the underlying mandible remains in question. In this investigation, the movements of a pellet attached to the incisor of the mandible were compared with those of pellets attached to different regions of the chin.
Method: Ten healthy talkers served as participants. Three speaking contexts were recorded from each participant: word, sentence, and paragraph. Chin position errors were estimated by computing the standard distance between the mandibular …


Fostering The Development Of Vocabulary Knowledge And Reading Comprehension Though Contextually-Based Multiple Meaning Vocabulary Instruction, J. Ron Nelson, Scott A. Stage Jan 2007

Fostering The Development Of Vocabulary Knowledge And Reading Comprehension Though Contextually-Based Multiple Meaning Vocabulary Instruction, J. Ron Nelson, Scott A. Stage

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

The primary purpose of this study was to assess the effects of contextually-based multiple meaning (i.e., words with multiple meanings) vocabulary instruction on the vocabulary knowledge and reading comprehension of students. Third and 5th grade students received either contextually-based multiple meaning vocabulary instruction embedded in the standard language arts instruction offered to all students over a three-month period or the standard language arts instruction alone (i.e., non-specific treatment). Students who received the contextually-based multiple meaning instruction generally showed statistically and educationally significant gains in their vocabulary knowledge and reading comprehension relative to students who did not. These gains were most …


Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potentials, Julie A. Honaker, Ravi N. Samy Jan 2007

Vestibular-Evoked Myogenic Potentials, Julie A. Honaker, Ravi N. Samy

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

Purpose of review: This article reviews the literature on vestibular-evoked myogenic potential testing, a short latency electromyogram evoked by high acoustic stimuli and recorded via surface electrodes over the sternocleidomastoid muscle. Applications and refinements of this technique are described for different pathologies and in adults and children.
Recent findings: Various techniques for electrode placement have been described to elicit a vestibular-evoked myogenic potential response, which has been clinically investigated in normal individuals, under pathological conditions, and in adult and pediatric patients. As vestibular-evoked myogenic potential amplitude is linearly related to the level of background activity of the sternocleidomastoid …


Factor Structure, Internal Consistency, And Interrater Reliability Of The Early Childhood Behavior Problem Screening Scale, J. Ron Nelson, Michael Epstein, Annette Griffith, John Hopper Jan 2007

Factor Structure, Internal Consistency, And Interrater Reliability Of The Early Childhood Behavior Problem Screening Scale, J. Ron Nelson, Michael Epstein, Annette Griffith, John Hopper

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

The current study examined the initial psychometrics of the Early Childhood Behavior Problem Screening Scale (ECBPSS; Epstein & Nelson, 2006), namely the factor structure and associated internal consistency of factor items of parent and teacher versions as well as interrater reliability. Data came from samples of preschool- and kindergarten- age children from 2 medium-size cities in the U.S. midwest. Separate analyses of the parent and teacher data revealed internalizing and externalizing factors, with Cronbach’s alphas ranging from .83 to .95. Parent and teacher interrater reliability coefficients ranged from .32 to .37. Overall, the results suggest that the 12-item ECBPSS Parent …


Functional Outcomes Of Cleft Lip Surgery. Part I: Study Design And Surgeon Ratings Of Lip Disability And Need For Lip Revision, Carroll-Ann Trotman, Ceib Phillips, Greg K. Essick, Julian J. Faraway, Steven M. Barlow, H. Wolfgang Losken, John Van Aalst, Lyna Rogers Jan 2007

Functional Outcomes Of Cleft Lip Surgery. Part I: Study Design And Surgeon Ratings Of Lip Disability And Need For Lip Revision, Carroll-Ann Trotman, Ceib Phillips, Greg K. Essick, Julian J. Faraway, Steven M. Barlow, H. Wolfgang Losken, John Van Aalst, Lyna Rogers

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

Objective—Children with a cleft of the upper lip exhibit obvious facial disfigurement. Many require multiple lip surgeries for an optimal esthetic result. However, because the decision for lip revision is based on subjective clinical criteria, clinicians may disagree on whether these surgeries should be performed. To establish more reliable, functionally relevant outcome criteria for evaluation and treatment planning, a clinical trial currently is in progress. In this article, the design of the clinical trial is described and results of a study on subjective evaluations of facial form by surgeons for or against the need for lip revision surgery are presented. …


Modulation Of The Trigeminofacial Pathway During Syllabic Speech, Meredith Estep, Steven M. Barlow Jan 2007

Modulation Of The Trigeminofacial Pathway During Syllabic Speech, Meredith Estep, Steven M. Barlow

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

The human orofacial system is richly endowed with low threshold, slowly adapting mechanoreceptors that respond to self-generated movements and external loads. The functional linkage between these afferents and the recruitment of motor units in the lower face during the dynamics of speech is unknown. Mechanically evoked activity in the orbicularis oris muscles was studied in young human female adults (N=10) during a lip force recruitment task associated with the repetition of the nonsense speech utterance “ah-wah.” This speech task involved the recruitment of perioral motor units against an elastic load. A skin contactor probe coupled to a servo-controlled linear motor …


Evaluation Of Pre-Service Teachers’ Images Of Science Teaching In Turkey, Hulya Yilmaz, Hakan Turkmen, Jon E. Pedersen, Pinar Huyuguzel Cavas Jan 2007

Evaluation Of Pre-Service Teachers’ Images Of Science Teaching In Turkey, Hulya Yilmaz, Hakan Turkmen, Jon E. Pedersen, Pinar Huyuguzel Cavas

Department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education: Faculty Publications

The purpose of this study is to investigate elementary pre-service teachers’ image of science teaching, analyze the gender differences in image of science teaching, and evaluate restructured 2004 education reform by using a Draw-A-Science-Teacher-Test Checklist (DASTT-C). Two hundred thirteen (213) pre-service elementary teachers from three different western universities participated in the data collection for this study. The results of study showed that Turkish elementary pre-service teachers’ perspective of science teaching style is 20% student-centered, 41% teacher-centered, and 39% between student-centered and teacher-centered. These results give some vital concerns regarding the preparation of future elementary teachers and the in-service development of …


Multifunctional Rural Landscapes: Economic, Environmental, Policy, And Social Impacts Of Land Use Changes In Nebraska, Twyla M. Hansen, Charles A. Francis, J. Dixon Esseks, J. Allen Williams Jr. Jan 2007

Multifunctional Rural Landscapes: Economic, Environmental, Policy, And Social Impacts Of Land Use Changes In Nebraska, Twyla M. Hansen, Charles A. Francis, J. Dixon Esseks, J. Allen Williams Jr.

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

The conversion of farmland near cities to other human uses is a global trend that challenges our long-term capacity to provide food, fiber, and ecosystem services to a growing world population. If current trends continue in the United States, the population will reach 450 million by the year 2050. At the same time, an accelerating change in land use will reduce today’s two acres per person of farmland to less than one acre per person. This is scarcely enough to produce food for our domestic population, without any food available for export – even assuming advances in technology. We need …
