Training School Psychology Graduate Students To Address Regional Shortages: A Distance Learning Model, Susan C. Davies, Julie Q. Morrison, Sawyer Hunley
Counselor Education and Human Services Faculty Publications
Addressing the shortages of school psychologists in underserved regions of the country is critical to the profession and the communities served by its members. This article describes a school psychology satellite training program using a hybrid approach combining distance learning technologies and face-to-face classroom meetings. The purpose of this study was to describe the experiences of sixteen graduate students in a rural, Appalachian region of Ohio as members of the first two cohorts enrolled in the school psychology satellite program.
Can Deliberative Democracy Work In Hierarchical Organizations?, Jason Pierce, Grant W. Neeley, Jeffrey Budziak
Can Deliberative Democracy Work In Hierarchical Organizations?, Jason Pierce, Grant W. Neeley, Jeffrey Budziak
Political Science Faculty Publications
Some measure of equality is necessary for deliberative democracy to work well, yet empirical scholarship consistently points to the deleterious effect that hierarchy and inequalities of epistemological authority have on deliberation. This article tests whether real-world deliberative forums can overcome these challenges. Contrary to skeptics, it concludes that the act of deliberation itself and the presence of trained moderators ameliorate inequalities of epistemological authority, thus rendering deliberative democracy possible, even within hierarchical organizations.
When Rejection By One Fosters Aggression Against Many: Multiple-Victim Aggression As A Consequence Of Social Rejection And Perceived Groupness, Lowell Gaertner, Jonatham Iuzzini, Erin M. O'Mara
When Rejection By One Fosters Aggression Against Many: Multiple-Victim Aggression As A Consequence Of Social Rejection And Perceived Groupness, Lowell Gaertner, Jonatham Iuzzini, Erin M. O'Mara
Psychology Faculty Publications
Two experiments examined the hypothesis that social rejection and perceived groupness function together to produce multiple-victim incidents of aggression. When a rejecter’s group membership is salient during an act of rejection, the rejectee ostensibly associates the rejecter’s group with rejection and retaliates against the group. Both experiments manipulated whether an aggregate of three persons appeared as separate individuals or members of an entity-like group and whether one of those persons rejected the participant. Consistent with the hypothesis, participants who experienced both rejection and perceived groupness behaved more aggressively against the aggregate (Experiment 1) and evidenced less favorable affective associations toward …

Primary objective: To determine whether parents believe schools provided necessary support to their children who sustained traumatic brain injuries.
Research design: Interview, to determine parent perceptions
Methods and procedure: Sixty-six primary caregivers of school-age children who experienced a TBI within the previous 2 years were interviewed regarding what types of special support were needed by and provided for their children during the 3 months immediately following school reentry. They then rated how difficult it was to obtain support or services from the school and how satisfied they were with the support or services.

Measuring Library Space Use And Preferences: Charting A Path Toward Increased Engagement, Kathleen M. Webb, Molly Schaller, Sawyer Hunley
Roesch Library Faculty Publications
The article presents a study on measuring library space, use, and preferences at the University of Dayton. The study used a multi-method research approach to be able to analyze the current space use in the library. Data from the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), surveys on study spaces and online library, and a week-long video were investigated to comprehend the student choices in library usage. Results showed that the university students prefer to study at times alone and at times with others. Factors such us interpersonal communication, comfort, and promotion of basic human needs and desires are necessary for …

Music, Emily A. Hicks
Music, Emily A. Hicks
Roesch Library Faculty Publications
Music reference sources continue to evolve, in part because of technological developments and a broadening interest in nonclassical genres, including world music. A few classic works were removed from the list because they are no longer widely available. Others have been subsumed by new print or electronic works. General sources are listed first, followed by sources specific to one or two genres of music. Major categories include blues and jazz, classical, country and gospel, rock and popular, and world music. Works encompassing more than two genres of music are included in the "General Sources" section. Several select online databases are …
Geographic Patterns, Patrick G. Donnelly
Geographic Patterns, Patrick G. Donnelly
Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work Faculty Publications
Criminologists, law enforcement officials, and city planners have long been interested in the relationship between geography and crime. Some of the earliest empirical studies of crime were conducted in the 1830s and 1840s by Andre Michel Guerry and Adolphe Quetelet, who plotted recorded crimes on maps and showed considerable variation in the numbers of crimes across geographic areas. As part of the Chicago ecological school of the 1920s and 1930s, Clifford Shaw and Henry McKay examined rates of delinquency in reference to the concentric zones in urban areas. The development of social area analysis and factor analytic techniques in the …

Urban Decline, Patrick G. Donnelly
Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work Faculty Publications
Urban decline refers to a process that includes population loss and the concentration in cities of major social, economic, and environmental problems, such as high levels of unemployment and poverty and the deterioration of housing and public infrastructure. Sometimes used interchangeably with the terms urban decay and urban distress, urban decline is frequently measured by changes in population (particularly in relation to middle- and upper‐income residents), unemployment, and poverty rates; changes in median household income; and changes in property values, housing tenure, and vacancy rates.
Urban Sprawl, Patrick G. Donnelly
Urban Sprawl, Patrick G. Donnelly
Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work Faculty Publications
In the early 21st century, urban sprawl continues to be a source of considerable controversy and political debate, yet many Americans quietly accept sprawl. They express their acceptance by moving farther away from central cities into housing and business developments on land that was formerly rural and undeveloped. While a significant number of suburban communities have existed in the United States since the late 19th century, the greatest growth in suburbs occurred after World War II.
At the dawn of the 20th century, the suburban population represented less than 12 percent of the total U.S. population. By 1950, that figure …

Attitudes Of Ohiolink Librarians Toward Google Scholar™, Joan Giglierano
Roesch Library Faculty Publications
Almost three years after Google Scholar's inception, only a third of Ohio Library and Information Network (OhioLINK) member libraries link to it from their Web sites. This article reports the results of a July 2007 survey of OhioLINK academic librarians, conducted to find out about their attitudes and current practices regarding promotion of Google Scholar. It compares the findings about placement of Google Scholar on Web sites and inclusion in library instruction with previous research, and includes recommendations for libraries about Google Scholar.
