Psychology Faculty Articles and Research

Given the ubiquitous nature of love, numerous theories have been proposed to explain its existence. One such theory refers to love as a commitment device, suggesting that romantic love evolved to foster commitment between partners and enhance their reproductive success. In the present study, we investigated this hypothesis using a large-scale sample of 86,310 individual responses collected across 90 countries. If romantic love is universally perceived as a force that fosters commitment between long-term partners, we expected that individuals likely to suffer greater losses from the termination of their relationships—including people of lower socioeconomic status, those with many children, and …

Escaping The Pedagogical Cabin In The Woods, Tony Kemerly, Davis Ritenour Dec 2024

Escaping The Pedagogical Cabin In The Woods, Tony Kemerly, Davis Ritenour

Dialogue: The Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy

The American educational system, because of its seemingly innocuous yet ubiquitous nature, has become, to borrow a term from Roland Barthes, naturalized. By being naturalized, it has become a system that has somehow slipped beneath the radar of the American populace and operates on an autopilot of sorts that allows it to employ practices that don’t necessarily have the best interests of its constituents at heart. Murray Rothbard (1979) argued that compulsory schooling is not guided by altruism, but rather a desire to coerce the population into a mold that is desired by those possessing power in society. This need …

Building Transferable Skills In An Interdisciplinary Science And Science Fiction Capstone Course, John D. Carrell, Robert G. Weiner, Alexandria Prather

Dialogue: The Interdisciplinary Journal of Popular Culture and Pedagogy

College graduates are entering an ever-competitive workforce. Interdisciplinary course experiences are critical for developing analytical abilities and learning and these courses can provide valuable skills that will aid students beyond the classroom. These transferable skills include communication, teamwork, analytical and critical thinking, and creativity. To provide a unique learning experience and, through it, the development of transferable skills, the Honors College at Texas Tech University created an upper-level Capstone course titled “Superheroes, Super Villains, AI, Time Travel, and Film in Science and Popular Culture.” The class is an interdisciplinary look at science and science fiction taught by an engineering faculty …

Department of Medicine Faculty Papers

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health challenge that affects patients, caregivers, healthcare systems, the environment and national economies. Despite its far-reaching impact, there is no framework to systematically evaluate national CKD prevention and management programmes or evaluate the societal burden of disease. This paper has two objectives: first, to introduce a comprehensive framework to assess national programmes, which recognises gaps and weaknesses and identifies feasible policy interventions to reduce overall CKD burden; second, to present some key challenges and success stories in delivering CKD services delivered in eight different country settings. A literature review informed an initial version …

Living With Quadriplegia: A Journey Of Personal And Professional Development, James Arkwright Dec 2024

Living With Quadriplegia: A Journey Of Personal And Professional Development, James Arkwright

Heroism Science

In this article, I provide an autoethnographic account of the discursive and narrative changes I have experienced and the agency I have found, following an accident thirty-seven years ago that resulted in permanent spinal cord injury. Initially losing my career and identity as a farmer, my hope and survival depended on adopting new frameworks of understanding – both in terms of the physical realities of living with incomplete quadriplegia and in becoming subjectively positioned quite differently than I was as an able-bodied male with farming knowledge and skills. In more recent years, as my spinal health and mobility have deteriorated, …

Can Animal Consciousness Be Resolved Scientifically?, Yoram Gutfreund Dec 2024

Can Animal Consciousness Be Resolved Scientifically?, Yoram Gutfreund

Animal Sentience

Carolyn Ristau's biography of Donald Griffin is a comprehensive work that sheds light on a seminal chapter in the history of ethology—the ambitious attempt to establish a research field dedicated to animal consciousness. Although Donald Griffin's endeavor ultimately fell short of its revolutionary goals, it catalyzed significant progress in understanding evolution and mechanisms of animal cognition.

Beyond Human Perception: The Remarkable Science Of Donald R. Griffin, Gareth Jones Dec 2024

Beyond Human Perception: The Remarkable Science Of Donald R. Griffin, Gareth Jones

Animal Sentience

Carolyn Ristau shows how Donald Griffin’s revolutionary science sometimes progressed from ridicule, to opposition, to being self-evident. Griffin’s work involved phenomena beyond human perception, making it sometimes difficult for others to fathom. His work on ultrasonic echolocation, navigation and animal cognition has shifted established paradigms. His ‘zoomorphic’ approach provides a realistic framework for understanding how other animals perceive the world.

The Nature Of Grace: An Introduction, Shann Ray Ferch, Jiying Song Dec 2024

The Nature Of Grace: An Introduction, Shann Ray Ferch, Jiying Song

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

The International Journal of Servant-Leadership, a humble refraction of the nations of the world, is a staging ground for the most ultimate notions of human love and loss. That a scholarly journal, touched by art, is a proving ground for the question of love in the context of the human and the divine is still a surprising and serendipitous gift to us personally. The binary between art and science has been brought to greater oneness and now social scientists and artists can ask together: Why does love exist? What is the nature of such love, and how might it help …

On Servant-Leadership And Quaker Influences, Paul W. Davis, Larry C. Spears Dec 2024

On Servant-Leadership And Quaker Influences, Paul W. Davis, Larry C. Spears

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

One important aspect of the Religious Society of Friends has to do with the nurturance of seekers. The very origins of the Religious Society of Friends had much to do with the fact that 17th-century English seekers were already present and listening when the prophetic visionary leadership of George Fox spoke to their hearts. Out of that union of seekers and prophet grew a powerful spiritual tradition that continues today

Preface To Song’S “Persuasion Vs. Coercion Or Persuasion And Coercion”, Shann Ray Ferch

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

Song has taken the original work of Greenleaf, specifically his work on seeking to understand the sacred scripture ‘Overcome evil with good,’ and rendered a stunning analysis of great force and vital interrogative essence. Worldwide, fascism is on the rise. Her article does much to ground the human community in the difference between persuasion and coercion, and helps lead us through her own voice that weaves a very fine tapestry with the voices of Greenleaf, Ghandi, Woolman, and Whittier, among others.

Devoted To Healing The Heart Of The World, Shann Ray Ferch Dec 2024

Devoted To Healing The Heart Of The World, Shann Ray Ferch

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

In receiving the following narratives of the work of Jesuit Worldwide Learning (JWL) from around the globe, I noticed a deep sense of hunger for the health and well-being of all humanity. This hunger, a seeking and restorative sense of hope and gladness at the heart of people, was pervasive, elegant, incisive, and beautiful in each interview. By setting out to listen to the lives of those working on the front lines of refugee, poverty-ridden, and displaced populations globally, the gift they gave to me personally, to the world of ideas, and the more important world of action is both …

Serendipity In Non-Profit Founding And The Healing Response Of Two Servant-Leaders To Crises Of Migration, Michael T. Von Behren Dec 2024

Serendipity In Non-Profit Founding And The Healing Response Of Two Servant-Leaders To Crises Of Migration, Michael T. Von Behren

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

This article explores the intersection of non-profit founding with elements of servant-leadership. Drawing upon current research in social entrepreneurship and non-profit founding, the article reflects on these in light of the stories of two selfless individuals, Varian Fry and Enrique Morones, whose lives of servanthood spawned the founding of two influential organizations: the Emergency Rescue Committee (ERC) and the Border Angels. While sharing the stories of these organizations, and of their founding, this article highlights issues of immigration offering a healing perspective through five themes of servant-leadership articulated by Robert K. Greenleaf revealed in the lives of these non-profit founders. …

Colloquium Servant-Leadership Interviews, Shann Ray Ferch

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

The Jesuit Worldwide Learning (JWL) Colloquium is a group of PhD candidates and others united in providing equitable high quality tertiary learning to people and communities at the margins of societies. These margins, indicated by poverty, location, lack of opportunity, conflict, or forced displacement, define the nature of our shared sense of sisterhood and brotherhood worldwide. The JWL mission and works of mission, enacted daily throughout the world, fulfill Greenleaf’s best test of servant-leadership, bringing greater wisdom, health, autonomy, freedom and service to others, and helps bring about Greenleaf’s notion that the least privileged of society are benefitted and not …

Liberal Studies And Servant Leadership: Inspiring Ignatian Values At The Margins, Isabella Rega, Mélodie Honen-Delmar

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

This paper aims to unpack how the concept of servant leadership is perceived from Liberal Studies graduates living at the margins of society. Anchoring this research in the work of Jesuit Worldwide Learning (JWL), a faith-based organization providing higher education to displaced and poor communities, this paper seeks to deconstruct the assumption present in the literature of an ‘already-in-power’ servant leader by focusing on servant leaders in vulnerable and marginalized places, where they would be most needed. This article synthesizes the voices of more than 100 graduates from the Diploma in Liberal Studies program and looks at how graduates define …

Servant-Leadership As A Pathway To Success For Foreign-Born Leaders, Ashley Davis Dec 2024

Servant-Leadership As A Pathway To Success For Foreign-Born Leaders, Ashley Davis

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

Immigrants have consistently been recognized as significant contributors to the United States economy, science, and innovation (Vandor & Franke, 2016). However, there remains a noticeable gap in the literature regarding the experiences and leadership development process of foreign-born leaders (FBLs). This article addresses this gap by highlighting the positive contributions of FBLs while noting the relatively small pool of effective FBLs in comparison to the large immigrant population in the United States, suggesting substantial untapped potential. The author explores common challenges faced by FBLs and emphasizes that overcoming these obstacles is integral to FBLs’ leadership development journey. The central argument …

Listening To The Soul’S Whisper: Embracing Silence In Coaching, Carolyn S. Roark, Chaya S. Abelsky Dec 2024

Listening To The Soul’S Whisper: Embracing Silence In Coaching, Carolyn S. Roark, Chaya S. Abelsky

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

While writings have centered on the role of silence in the coach–client relationship, the practice of listening to one’s soul is a topic that has been scantily covered in the literature. Building on a foundation of servant–leadership, emotional intelligence, and the Johari Window along with coaching techniques, this article focuses on the importance of listening to one’s soul to uncover one’s life blueprint. It is imperative for both professional coaches and clients to make a commitment to take the time to incorporate the daily practice of listening to one’s soul to unearth the wisdom and uncover the buried values found …

Servant-Leadership Practices Of Nelson Mandela, African Culture And A Thriving Future For Africa, Jeremiah Ole Koshal Dec 2024

Servant-Leadership Practices Of Nelson Mandela, African Culture And A Thriving Future For Africa, Jeremiah Ole Koshal

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

This paper examines the African cultural values and the virtues of servant-leadership as impetus of the successful leadership of Nelson Mandela, and how all these can be tapped by other African leaders in order to transition the continent into a more prosperous and promising future. Previously, authors have viewed Africa from the lenses of hopelessness due to its corrupt, self-centered and inept leadership that has led to sluggish economic growth and social disharmony. Yet since time immemorial, the African culture has had no dichotomy between service and leadership, as evidence in some of Africa’s cultural philosophies like ubuntu, which focuses …

Humility And Servant-Leadership: Toward A Solution Of Pastoral Narcissism, Luke W. R. Bryant Dec 2024

Humility And Servant-Leadership: Toward A Solution Of Pastoral Narcissism, Luke W. R. Bryant

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

The world contains healthy and toxic leaders, and these leaders make an impact—for better or worse—on their followers. While healthy Christian pastors may exude humility and positively affect congregants, the issue of narcissism among pastors is more prevalent than one may expect. This article explores the literature related to humility, servant-leadership, and narcissism—painting the ideal of humble pastors, linking the ideal with servant-leadership, presenting the problem of narcissistic pastors, and moving toward the beginning stages of proposed solutions. Depending on the severity level, churches may opt for a period of renewed growth from the pastor or outright replacement of the …

Servant-Leadership, Self-Reflection, And Self-Transcendence, Ryan Schmidt Dec 2024

Servant-Leadership, Self-Reflection, And Self-Transcendence, Ryan Schmidt

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

Whether it be income, gender, or race inequity, the gap between the haves and have-nots in the United States continues to increase, yet most people remain only concerned with themselves (Singh, 2012). Even without intention, injustice can fester. Following Robert Greenleaf’s (1977/2002) premise that caring for others is the foundation of a good society, servant-leadership provides a vision for doing the necessary inner work to achieve self-awareness before engaging with the outer work of the world. When individuals better understand the conditions governing their thoughts, feelings, and actions, the potential exists to achieve self-transcendence, re-orienting their lives outward in the …

The Church’S Failure To Embrace All Of God’S Beloved Creation, Kalif Crutcher Dec 2024

The Church’S Failure To Embrace All Of God’S Beloved Creation, Kalif Crutcher

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

The primary aim of this article was to describe how the policies regarding same-sex marriage and unions in the Christian Methodist Episcopal church are exclusionary and oppressive. There are studies that reference the psychological and spiritual harm that the church causes when queer individuals are not embraced. Nevertheless, a secondary goal of this article is share how the church, through servant-leadership principles can explore forgiveness seeking and an affirmative theological position of inclusion whereby queer congregants are cared for and supported.

Bridging The Tragic Gap With Servant-Leadership: An Exploration Of Stewardship And Healing, Jamie Noling-Auth Dec 2024

Bridging The Tragic Gap With Servant-Leadership: An Exploration Of Stewardship And Healing, Jamie Noling-Auth

International Journal of Servant-Leadership

This article utilizes servant-leadership theory to engage with the leadership predicament that theologian Parker Palmer calls “the tragic gap”—the disparity between a hopeful vision for good and the reality of humanity’s propensity for violence. Utilizing two of servant-leadership theory’s ten characteristics, this article explores how stewardship and healing might serve the servant-leader who wishes to bridge the tragic gap. Through a survey of interdisciplinary literature, this article concludes that essential actions of stewardship and healing include: honoring human dignity, care-giving, love, responsibility, and forgiveness.
