Beyond Survival: Embodied Rhetoric And Resistance To Campus Sexual Violence, Logan Rae Gomez Jan 2017

Beyond Survival: Embodied Rhetoric And Resistance To Campus Sexual Violence, Logan Rae Gomez

Theses - ALL

Seeking to understand the culture of rape in the U.S., this project centers the stories of women of color on college campuses. In particular, I analyze Emma Sulkowicz’s Mattress Performance and the past, present, and future activist projects of Wagatwe Wanjuki. Positioning Sulkowicz and Wanjuki in the center of the conversation on sexual violence reminds us of the historical reality of rape for women of color. Collectively, Emma Sulkowicz and Wagatwe Wanjuki create discursive spaces for what Lisa Flores calls a “rhetoric of difference” and via Cherríe Moraga’s “theory in the flesh.” Throughout, I argue that we must analyze the …


Exploring Scale And Boundaries In Food System Assessments, Jane Christine Mulcahy Jan 2017

Exploring Scale And Boundaries In Food System Assessments, Jane Christine Mulcahy

Theses - ALL

The local food movement in the U.S. has permeated popular culture and academia; it has even infiltrated non-profit work, urban and regional planning, and government entities. By its very name, the local food movement binds food activity to a scale – the local – that is nebulous and context dependent. Scale is a crucial part of the discourse and implementation of both local food movement efforts and food studies research – scale is used to conceptualize local food system (LFS) efforts as well as implement them. This thesis explores how scale is operationalized in LFS activities through food system assessments …


The Effect Of Acute Negative Affect On Approach Biases To Alcohol Cues In Coping-Motivated Drinkers, Katherine Anne Buckheit Jan 2017

The Effect Of Acute Negative Affect On Approach Biases To Alcohol Cues In Coping-Motivated Drinkers, Katherine Anne Buckheit

Theses - ALL

Drinking to cope with negative affect has been linked to greater alcohol consumption and consequences of use. The combination of negative affect and implicit cognition, or unconscious processing has been theorized as a potential mechanism by which individuals become dependent on alcohol or other drugs. Literature has demonstrated stronger implicit cognitive biases toward alcohol cues in those who drink to cope but has not examined if this effect extends to approach biases to alcohol cues. 63 drinkers classified as high or low in coping motivation were randomized to either a negative affect induction group or a neutral affect control group. …


Effects Of Experimental Pain Induction On Proxies Of Alcohol Use, Dezarie Moskal Jan 2017

Effects Of Experimental Pain Induction On Proxies Of Alcohol Use, Dezarie Moskal

Theses - ALL

Identifying determinants of alcohol consumption remains an important approach to prevent or reduce harmful use. Recent work suggests one such determinant may be physical pain; however, current research is unable to discern causality. Therefore, the goal of this study was to test experimental pain as a determinant of self-reported urge to drink, intention to use alcohol, and alcohol demand (as proxies for ad-lib alcohol consumption). Secondarily, this study aimed to investigate negative affect as a mediator of this relation. We hypothesized that participants randomized to undergo experimental pain induction (vs. no pain) would report increases in proxies of alcohol use …


The Romantic Baby Boomer: A Successful Aging Analysis Of Romantic Comedy Film Trailers, Annette Marie Schelling Masterson Jan 2017

The Romantic Baby Boomer: A Successful Aging Analysis Of Romantic Comedy Film Trailers, Annette Marie Schelling Masterson

Theses - ALL

On any given Friday night, theaters across the United States are filled with teenagers and young adults, often to see the new Blockbuster that has just been released. The film industry has responded by producing content specifically targeted to this demographic. Unfortunately, this has left a major portion of the population waiting for material that is relatable. Even when there is a character over the age of 50, they are regularly for comic relief or portrayed as weak and incapable. The recent trend of romantic comedies incorporating storylines for older adults is still underrepresented in academic research. This thesis set …

Are Introverts Invisible? A Textual Analysis Of How The Disney And Nickelodeon Teen Sitcoms Reflect The Extrovert Ideal, Yuxi Zhou Jan 2017

Are Introverts Invisible? A Textual Analysis Of How The Disney And Nickelodeon Teen Sitcoms Reflect The Extrovert Ideal, Yuxi Zhou

Theses - ALL

In 2012, Susan Cain published a nonfiction book: Quiet, The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking, in which she claimed that the modern western society was dominated by the Extrovert Ideal and it led to “a colossal waste of talent, energy, and happiness” (Cain, 2012, p.12). The concept of Extrovert Idea, according to her, is the “omnipresent belief that the ideal self is gregarious, alpha and comfortable in the spotlight” (Cain, 2012, p.4). Other psychologists and cultural historians also mentioned this cultural ideal, stating that it changed how people teach, how people work, how people interact …


Quinua Or Quinoa? Transformation, Certification, And The Contestation Of The Commodity Chain On The Bolivian Altiplano, Andria Maria Aguilar Jan 2017

Quinua Or Quinoa? Transformation, Certification, And The Contestation Of The Commodity Chain On The Bolivian Altiplano, Andria Maria Aguilar

Theses - ALL

The rise in popularity for quinua in the Global North, known as the quinua boom, has created an incredible transformation on Bolivia’s altiplano. Over a short period of time, quinua has transitioned from a subsistence crop to an international luxury commodity. By placing the boom in a wider historical context, and detailing two distinct commodity chains through which quinua might flow, I show that the “ecological harmony” championed by the organic commodity chain has not delivered all that it has promised. Despite the long list of standards designed to ensure that quinua is grown organically, the quinua boom has changed …
