Gun Control Laws And Policies Reported Influence On The Attitudes Of Faculty At Mississippi Universities, David Besancon

University campuses are generally considered a liberal environment. However, Mississippi has been one of the two most conservative states since the 1930s.

Rural pregnant women with substance use disorder (SUD) are an understudied vulnerable population that often experiences poor pregnancy outcomes (Higgins et al., 2019; Jumah, 2016; Kramlich et al., 2018; Shaw et al., 2015).

The research questions explored the life experiences and motivations for seeking treatment using a qualitative, descriptive research design with grounded theory …
