Misinformation Susceptibility: Partisan & Novel Misinformation Is More Believable, Adan Reyes Salas, Ian Beatty, Taylor Simington, Monty Crain Ii

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

This preregistered study examines how susceptibility to misinformation is affected by its novelty and partisan appeal. Prior research done by Jost et al. (2003) and Zmigrod et al. (2019) have differed in whether an ideological asymmetry exists contributing to heightened susceptibility to misinformation. Our study explores this debate between the ‘rigidity of the right’ versus the ‘rigidity of the extremes.’

Additionally, the present study builds upon previous research assessing the impact of prior exposure to misinformation (what we loosely define as ‘organic’ and ‘novel’) and susceptibility (Pennycook et al., 2018). We also explored whether or not several individual difference variables …

We Would Be Friends: Fans, Musicians And Social Media, Cassidy Byrnes

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

With social media being one of the most prominent forms of communication today, it has become a pillar in the way our society functions. Social media has completely transformed the way we interact with people we know and with people we don’t. Celebrities have taken social media in stride and are using it as part of their brand to communicate with fans, which creates a very interesting dynamic. Musicians and their fans appear to communicate regularly through social media, so fans are doing more than consuming music, they are interacting with other fans and their favorite musicians. Fans, through social …

An Analysis Of The Relationship Between K-12 Public Education Spending And Student Academic Achievement In Iowa, Lydia Berns-Schweingruber

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

Student academic achievement in Iowa is on the decline (US Department of Education 2022). Some politicians propose increasing public education spending in order to address worrisome trends in academic achievement (Richardson 2022). Prior studies disagree about whether there is a relationship between school spending and student outcomes. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a relationship between K-12 public education spending and student academic achievement in Iowa. This project analyzes data from the past nineteen years to examine the relationship between Iowa’s per- pupil expenditure and student outcomes — specifically, graduation rate, average daily attendance, math …

Are Faculty Members Ready To Quit? Organizational Commitment Among Faculty Members, Mackenzie Grenko, Tenzin Kalsang, Tenzin Urgyen

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

Discussion of “The Great Resignation” suggests that burnout may influence faculty members’ decisions to withdraw from their field (Daumiller et al., 2021; Klotz, 2021; Sheather, 2021). Still, much of the evidence for faculty burnout and turnover is anecdotal, and further investigation is necessary to determine the impact of burnout and other job demands on turnover intentions.

● In this study, we predicted that participants with higher levels of burnout would report higher levels of turnover intentions (i.e., reported likelihood of leaving their current position for another or retiring early).

● We also examined which job demands and demographics most influenced …

Rural Identity, Self-Reliance, Stoicism, And Attitudes Toward Mental Health Help-Seeking Among Iowans, Taylor Brown

INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference

In the United States, 21% of adults have a mental illness. Prevalence of mental illness tends to be highest among young adults (18-25 years old) and lowest among older adults (50 years or older; National Institute of Mental Health, 2020).

Rural communities represent 19% of the United States population (Oser et al., 2022). Research has shown that rates of mental illness are the same in rural areas as in urban areas (Morales et al., 2020) and that suicide rates are significantly higher within rural communities (Brunk, 2010). Despite this, there is a significant lack of help-seeking among rural residents (Morales …

Institutional Choices Regarding Human Rights And Its Effect On Citizen Participation, Elle Jones

Research in the Capitol

Over centuries, one party has been unhappy, whereas the other has power. But what about the population as a whole? Government policy constantly changes, forcing citizens to change their relationship with it. An activist's involvement can include protests or changing voter turnout. Recent midterm elections are a perfect example. Voter turnout for Democrats led to underperformance in several red states. This is due to those who based their vote on the Dobbs decision when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade the summer before, despite Democratic approval ratings being 50% and Republican approval ratings leading by 3%. With many more …
