Education For The Changing Public Sector: An Impact Study Of The Suny Buffalo State's Mpa In The Erie County Department Of Social Services' Employee Education Program, Caroline M. Alagna
Public Administration Master’s Projects
In 1982, the Erie County Department of Social Services (ECDSS) developed the Employee Education Program (EEP). The EEP is an educational sponsorship program that provides eligible employees with a tuition-free education at area higher education institutions for a number of various degrees. One such degree is the Public Administration in Public and Nonprofit Management, or MPA at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Buffalo State College. This 2017 evaluation concentrates on identifying the skills and knowledge that employees of ECDSS gained from their participation in the MPA component of the EEP and the impact that these new or …

The NY SAFE Act is a controversial gun control law in New York State. Since its passage on January 15, 2013, it has been the source of a continuing controversy. The primary purpose of this study is to explore the reactions of New York State (elected) county clerks tasked with the law’s implementation. In this phenomenological study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 11 county clerks across New York State. The researcher asked various questions about how the SAFE Act has affected their offices. The researcher used thematic analysis to organize themes, which reveal that a lack of or inadequate intergovernmental …
Preschoolers And Pandas Making Friends: A Journey About Healing From Brain Injury, Barbara Anne Doucette
Preschoolers And Pandas Making Friends: A Journey About Healing From Brain Injury, Barbara Anne Doucette
Museum Studies Projects
Preschoolers that have obtained Non-Accidental Injury (NAI) from familial child abuse are in need of having a unique place for neurorehabilitation in correlation with traditional therapies. My thesis project suggests adding an exhibit annex to an existing giant panda exhibit that will give preschoolers an opportunity to help develop new neuropathways when exposed to mediation and creative activities. Meditation and creative activities are being examined by neuroscientists as an aid in neuroplasticity after brain injury. This thesis reviews the neurotypical preschooler’s milestones and the playful means by which they are achieved. Conjoining the contemporary museums’ and zoological gardens’ outreach to …

E Vërteta Dhe Vërtetësia Në Portalet “On-Line” (Gazeta Express), Ajda Shukriu
Theses and Dissertations
Mediat on-line po luajnë një rol shumë të madhë në jetën tonë dhe janë bërë pjesë e përditshmërisë tonë. Këto media e plotësojnë nevojën e qytetarëve për tu informuar shpejt në çdo kohë e vend. Ky punim analizon cilësinë e portaleve “on-line”, nga të cilat informohet audienca në Kosovë. Duke u bazuar në disa analiza studimore, është kuptuar se portalet “on-line” për momentin janë mediumi më me ndikim në Kosovë. Kohëve të fundit numri i portaleve sa po shkon e po shtohet, dhe ngutshmëria për të qenë të parët shpesh po i qon që të kenë vetëm shpejtësi e jo …

Veçantitë Dhe Rëndësia E Të Folurit Për Radio, Gentiana Hoxhaj
Theses and Dissertations
Të folurit në radio është njëri ndër elementet më të rëndësishme për gazetarët dhe moderatorët, pavarësisht nga programet në të cilat janë të angazhuar. Studiuesit e ndryshëm e cilësojnë mënyrën se si flitet në radio si shenjë identifikuese të radios dhe në raste të veçanta e barazvlerësojnë përmbajtjen me mënyrën se si përcillet ajo te dëgjuesit. Mënyra se si flasin gazetarët dhe moderatorët në programet e radios, ndikon në krijimin e lidhjes së radios me audiencën/dëgjuesit e saj. Për të krijuar afërsi dhe komunikim me dëgjuesit, nevojitet të respektohen parimet kryesore, që përvetësohen nga gazetarët përmes ushtrimit të teknikave të …

Theses and Dissertations
Ky studim synon të hedhë dritë mbi aftësinë që ka mesazhi i Bashkimit Europian në ndryshimin e qëndrimit të njerëzve ndaj të drejtave të grave. Literatura mbizotëruese në këtë temë tregon se qytetarët në vendet e Bashkimit Europian njerëzit i kushtojnë pak vëmendje mesazhit të BE-së dhe se ata i krijojnë qëndrimet e tyre për çështjet politike që shqetësojnë vendet e tyre bazuar mbi qëndrimet e partive të tyre dhe qasjeve ideologjike përkatëse. Megjithatë ka fare pak kërkim në këtë fushë kur vjen fjala tek vendet që ende nuk janë antarësuar në BE por që e aspirojnë këtë antarësim. Ne …

Roli I Financave Publike Në Zgjedhjet Elektorale Në Periudhën E Pas Luftës Në Kosovë, Gresa Konjufca
Theses and Dissertations
Ky punim do të tentojë të identifikojë zgjedhjet të cilat janë mekanizëm i zakonshëm me të cilën demokracia moderne përfaqësuese vepron por e cila ka një kosto, kosto kjo që duhet të mbulohet nga financat shtetërore-publike. Këto janë mekanizmi me anë të cilit matet demokracia në një vend.
Për të parë se sa është një vend demokratik atëherë duhet të pare se sa është respektuar sistemi zgjedhor në atë shtet, sa kanë qenë demokratike zgjedhjet.
Ne në pika të shkurta do të mundohemi të flasim për gjeopolitikën elektorale të pasluftës në Kosovë. Ato janë mjet për mbushjen e një zyre …

Inside The Black Box: Investigating Philanthropic Foundation Strategies In A Dynamic Environment, Amanda Stewart
Inside The Black Box: Investigating Philanthropic Foundation Strategies In A Dynamic Environment, Amanda Stewart
The Foundation Review
Foundations have been described as black boxes — implying that we know very little about what happens between inputs and outputs. We do know that they operate in dynamic environments and must adopt strategies to be effective in the face of change. This article, which examines the strategies of 29 foundations operating in one southeastern state, provides fresh insights into how foundations fulfill their missions.
The article is based on a research study that used semistructured interviews to explore how foundations approached grantmaking. Interviewees discussed the multiple and simultaneous roles played by grantmakers in addition to their traditional check-writing function. …
Philanthropy: Evidence In Favor Of A Profession, Heather L. Carpenter
Philanthropy: Evidence In Favor Of A Profession, Heather L. Carpenter
The Foundation Review
Philanthropic employees have been cautious in implying that they are pursuing a career in philanthropy. Karl Stauber (2010) presented an argument in support of such caution: that philanthropy failed to meet all seven standards posited by Burton J. Bledstein, that when met, define a profession.
This article presents a literature review and findings from a survey of 500 members of the Council on Foundations that offer evidence for the counterargument that philanthropic work requires specialized education and training to master a set of core competencies.
While this article does not argue for or against the question, determining whether philanthropy as …

Creating Accountability With Interstate Cooperation: Unauthorized Water Use Enforcement On The Klamath River, Luke Fowler, Isaac Castellano
Creating Accountability With Interstate Cooperation: Unauthorized Water Use Enforcement On The Klamath River, Luke Fowler, Isaac Castellano
Public Policy and Administration Faculty Publications and Presentations
While lacking coercive power to compel enforcement, interstate compacts create accountability through multiple sources and layers connecting enforcement behavior to oversight. Using logistic regression, we test a model of accountability and enforcement of unauthorized water usage on the Klamath River. Findings indicate unauthorized water usage is far more likely to be reported and enforced on the Klamath River than on neighboring rivers in the same counties. Conclusions indicate the increased institutional layers of interstate compacts lead to more accountability and stringent enforcement and reporting of unauthorized water use.

Multinationals In Emerging Markets: A Test Case Of The Banking Industry In India, Havovi Joshi
Dissertations and Theses Collection
Multinational firms play a significant role in the world economy, accounting for over 30% of the world stock market value. In the past decade or two, these firms have demonstrated a renewed wave of interest in the Emerging Asian markets. This is not surprising, given the attractive demographics, growing middle class and leapfrogging technology of these markets. But the optimism of these western firms heading eastward often gets quickly subdued by the realisation that these emerging Asian markets are far more complex—or at the very least, different—than western ones. They are more volatile, there is frequently a lack of institutional …
The Relationship Between Nonverbal Communication And Patient Willingness To Comply In Framed, Low-Risk Medical Settings, Rachael A. Katz
The Relationship Between Nonverbal Communication And Patient Willingness To Comply In Framed, Low-Risk Medical Settings, Rachael A. Katz
Communication Studies
This study discusses framing and communication tactics in the medical field. It specifically aims to understand whether expertise and empathetic nonverbal communication impacts patient willingness to comply with physician directives in gain- and loss-framed medical settings. Framing has been studied in many settings, including medical situations, and has been found to impact decision-making. This experiment utilizes college-aged individuals to examine Meningitis, a disease where the most at-risk group is college aged young adults. Participants were exposed to one of six conditions to examine whether perceived expertise/empathy in their scenario impacted willingness to comply with the doctor directives. Although no mediation …

Addressing Social Issues Affecting Vulnerable Populations In San Benito County Through Community Events, Lucila Alvarez
Addressing Social Issues Affecting Vulnerable Populations In San Benito County Through Community Events, Lucila Alvarez
Capstone Projects and Master's Theses
In San Benito County there is a high concentration of Triqui community members. They originate from the state of Oaxaca in Mexico and flee their homeland due to political prosecution and violence. Many times, Triqui community members arrive in the United States speaking and understanding only their native Triqui language. Their customs and traditions clash with those of the United States and due to fear they isolate themselves and do not seek any community services. Community Solutions addressed these issues by organizing the first ever Indigenous Cultures Day in Hollister, CA on May 21, 2017. The event consisted of a …
The Smuggler Journals: Transgressing And Policing The Border In The Rio Grande Valley, Lupe Alberto Flores
The Smuggler Journals: Transgressing And Policing The Border In The Rio Grande Valley, Lupe Alberto Flores
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis summarizes recent human smuggling scholarship and provides ethnographic insights into migrant smuggling in a border zone that is my home. Through exploring my own experiences and observations of smuggling and militarized border policing, and those of other interlocutors in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas, I advance nuanced understandings of the symbiotic processes of irregular migration and of the people who brokerage a great deal of these journeys across militarized borders. I analyze fieldnotes that highlight the quotidian realms in which gender and power play out when irregular migration takes place and argue that acts of border …

Testing The Effectiveness Of Two Natural Selection Simulations In The Context Of A Large‑Enrollment Undergraduate Laboratory Class, Denise S. Pope, Caleb M. Rounds, Jody Clarke-Midura
Instructional Technology and Learning Sciences Faculty Publications
Background: Simulations can be an active and engaging way for students to learn about natural selection, and many have been developed, including both physical and virtual simulations. In this study we assessed the student experience of, and learning from, two natural selection simulations, one physical and one virtual, in a large enrollment introductory biology lab course. We assigned students to treatments (the physical or virtual simulation activity) by section and assessed their understanding of natural selection using a multiple-choice pre-/post-test and short-answer responses on a post-lab assignment. We assessed student experience of the activities through structured observations and an affective …
A Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis To Synthesize The Influence Of Contexts Of Scaffolding Use On Cognitive Outcomes In Stem Education, Brian Robert Belland, Andrew Walker, Nam Ju Kim
A Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis To Synthesize The Influence Of Contexts Of Scaffolding Use On Cognitive Outcomes In Stem Education, Brian Robert Belland, Andrew Walker, Nam Ju Kim
Instructional Technology and Learning Sciences Faculty Publications
Computer-based scaffolding provides temporary support that enables students to participate in and become more proficient at complex skills like problem solving, argumentation, and evaluation. While meta-analyses have addressed between-subject differences on cognitive outcomes resulting from scaffolding, none has addressed within-subject gains. This leaves much quantitative scaffolding literature not covered by existing meta-analyses. To address this gap, this study used Bayesian network meta-analysis to synthesize within-subjects (pre–post) differences resulting from scaffolding in 56 studies. We generated the posterior distribution using 20,000 Markov Chain Monte Carlo samples. Scaffolding has a consistently strong effect across student populations, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) …

Ecologists who specialize in translational ecology (TE) seek to link ecological knowledge to decision making by integrating ecological science with the full complement of social dimensions that underlie today's complex environmental issues. TE is motivated by a search for outcomes that directly serve the needs of natural resource managers and decision makers. This objective distinguishes it from both basic and applied ecological research and, as a practice, it deliberately extends research beyond theory or opportunistic applications. TE is uniquely positioned to address complex issues through interdisciplinary team approaches and integrated scientist–practitioner partnerships. The creativity and context-specific knowledge of resource managers, …

Small Open Economy Dsge Model With Natural Disaster And Foreign Aid, Dickson A. Lim
Angelo King Institute for Economic and Business Studies (AKI)
The Philippines is one of the countries in the ASEAN region to be regularly hit by natural disasters. In an analysis of natural disaster hotspots, the Philippines is one among several countries where large percentages of the population reside in disaster-prone areas (Hazard Management Unit of the World Bank, 2005). Consequently, these catastrophic events also entail adverse macroeconomic impacts to the economy (Bergeijk & Lazzaroni, 2015). Raddatz (2007) estimated that climate-related disasters reduce real GDP per capita by 0.6%. In the Philippines, Benson (1997) reported a reduction in GDP growth rate forecast by 3.3% following the Luzon earthquake in July …

Print Exposure Modulates The Effects Of Repetition Priming During Sentence Reading, Matthew W. Lowder, Peter C. Gordon
Print Exposure Modulates The Effects Of Repetition Priming During Sentence Reading, Matthew W. Lowder, Peter C. Gordon
Psychology Faculty Publications
Individual readers vary greatly in the quality of their lexical representations and consequently in how quickly and efficiently they can access orthographic and lexical knowledge. This variability may be explained, at least in part, by individual differences in exposure to printed language, as practice at reading promotes the development of stronger reading skills. The current eye-tracking experiment tests the hypothesis that the efficiency of word recognition during reading improves with increases in print exposure by determining whether the magnitude of the repetition priming effect is modulated by individual differences in scores on the Author Recognition Test (ART). Lexical repetition of …
