What Is My Role In Changing The System? A New Model Of Responsibility For Structural Injustice, Robin Zheng Jan 2018

What Is My Role In Changing The System? A New Model Of Responsibility For Structural Injustice, Robin Zheng

Women's and Gender Studies Program: Faculty Publications

What responsibility do individuals bear for structural injustice? Iris Marion Young has offered the most fully developed account to date, the Social Connections Model.

Department of Communication Studies: Faculty Publications

We examined how these family systems are constructed via interactions in relational triads of “linchpin” persons between biolegal family and voluntary kin. From in-depth interviews with 36 supplemental voluntary kin, we examined themes in the linchpins’ discourse …

Executive Control In Hispanic Children: Considering Linguistic And Sociocultural Factors, Miriam M. Martinez

Department of Psychology: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Despite the burgeoning interest in examining the development of executive control, less is known about the development of these skills among ethnic minority children.

The purpose of the three complementary studies reported in this dissertation is to contribute …
