Critical Theory, Fascism, And Antifascism: Reflections From A Damaged Polity, Bradley Macdonald, Katherine E. Young

Emancipations: A Journal of Critical Social Analysis

The presidency of Trump has produced an increasing sense that we are possibly moving into a period of fascism in the United States. In this essay, we wish to look closely at conditions which define this current political period by taking seriously Max Horkheimer’s plea to see the necessary relation of capitalism to protofascist potentials and fascist aspirations within our liberal democratic context. Drawing upon the work of Theodor Adorno, Herbert Marcuse, and others, we will look more closely at the particular political economic conditions that underlie the development of our one-dimensional society, in which “totalitarian” economic-technical control, rampant consumerism, …

Communicating Sustainability: Pollinators And North St. Louis Home Owners, Sarah Kelly, Tori Thoele

Undergraduate Research Symposium

When talking about sustainability, lawncare may not be the first thing that comes to mind. However, the way we take care of our lawns affects the pollinators in the area. If we want to get people to behave in environmentally friendly ways, we need to find a way to reach them with messages that resonate. That means meeting them where they are and understanding their thoughts and opinions on lawncare. We did this by conducting three focus groups via Zoom with 4-6 participants in each group. We asked them questions about how they take care of their lawns, the pressure …

The Value Of A Note: A Finding Aid Usability Study, Betts Coup

Journal of Contemporary Archival Studies

Finding aids have long been an essential part of archivists’ work. To create a finding aid is to create a surrogate of an archival collection. Multiple levels of description are used to distill information about the unique groupings and parts of a collection and to place its content into context. Archivists make decisions about what to include in a finding aid based on their own judgment as trained professionals, but also with the intent to create a finding aid that will be genuinely helpful to researchers. Indeed, as the revised principles of Describing Archives: A Content Standard (DACS) state: “Users …

How Does Internet Delivered Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills Training Reduce Suicide Risk? Examining The Granularity Of Suicidal Ideation, Joseph Rameer, Chelsey Wilks

Undergraduate Research Symposium

Background: The gap between treatment need and treatment availability is troubling, and for people who endorse suicidal ideation and present with other complex behavioral dysfunction have more treatment barriers.

While DBT has considerable evidence indicating that it is effective at ameliorating suicidal behavior, including thoughts, it is unclear how suicidality is reduced within this population. This study is a secondary data analysis of a pilot randomized control trial evaluating the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of …
