Abstract:

Kinesiology<br>M.S.<br>The purpose of this study was to uncover the unique and devastating consequences of untreated head injuries in a population that self-monitors their return to play after an injury. The secondary purpose was to identify the general perceptions of head injuries in the action sports culture and the themes that are common challenges for action sport athletes during their TBI rehabilitation in order to examine the coping skills that were used during their attempt to return to their sport. Seven athletes were interviewed. The sports represented were snowboarding, BMX racing, B

Doctor of Philosophy<br>Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work<br>Robert K. Schaeffer<br>The United States has resettled unaccompanied minors before. In the 1960s and 1970s, minors from Indochina were resettled in the United States. In the 1970s, the U.S accepted 14,000 unaccompanied minors from Cuba through Operation Peter Pan. Many of these Cuban minors, aged five to eighteen, were sent to the United States by parents fearing their children would be indoctrinated in communist schools. In the case of these minors, they arrived in the United States with the consent of their sti

Abstract:

This essay discusses how female and male characters are represented in the novel Peter & Wendy by J.M Barrie from 1911 and the Disney version Peter Pan from 1953. Jane Sunderland’s models on social gender are used as a substructure to help clarify how the characters are portrayed as individuals, in relation to other characters and through their own actions and speech acts. The essay shows that there is a major difference in how male characters are portrayed compared to the female characters and that every character of the story lives up to what seems to be socially constructed gender roles

Abstract:

This thesis investigates why the Lost Boys, a group of young South Sudanese refugees who have long expressed a desire to return home, are not returning in numbers. It finds that variables generally cited in the existing literature (family ties, securing, occupational opportunities and patriotism) have similar values for those who have resettled permanently in the US, those who have returned to South Sudan, and those who have expressed interest in returning but not done so. Personal factors such as age, marital status, income and education levels are found to contribute to overall risk ave

Abstract:

Reading plays an important role in establishing lifelong learning and providing the reader with an avenue to new experiences and a language with which to express their ideas and feelings (Owen 2003; Hamston & Love 2005). In particular adolescents need a language that allows them to 'play with their identities in a safe and controlled manner to explore who they want to be in this ever changing world' (Koss & Teale 2009, 569). Block (1995) advances that there is a distinct correlation between what we read and how we live in the world, and argues 'if what we read influences our identity in the wo

Abstract:

From the release of their first single “Surfin’” in 1961 to the release of the album Pet Sounds in 1966, rock history traces the arc of the American rock group the Beach Boys in broad terms of the early-sixties Southern California surf music trend and the revolutionary effects of the Beatles’ stateside arrival in 1964. Typical claims for progress, autonomy, the significance of the album, and myths of authenticity in the study of the emergence of the rock concept, however, tend to promote an essentialist understanding of what rock music is about and what it is for. This study proposes an altern

El presente trabajo se propone discutir acerca de los límites entre el Análisis del Dasein de Medard Boss y la Analítica del Dasein de Martin Heidegger. Tomando como punto de partida la aparición de la dimensión orgánica en las consideraciones de Boss, se discutirá cómo es que se devela una oposición en los énfasis temáticos correspondientes a una consideración filosófica y a una psicológica del ser humano. Dicha oposición será aclarada indagando en las respectivas motivaciones de ambos programas, para destacarlas como sus eminentes límites. Finalmente, comprendiendo dichas motivaciones como l

Le traitement thermique est une méthode appropriée pour la valorisation d'essences européennes peu durables.

Le verrou actuel de ce procédé reste la grande difficulté à produire à l'échelle industrielle un produit de qualité constante (durabilité, stabilité dimensionnelle, couleur).

Abstract:

Siguiendo a Anthony Giddens (1995), el carácter dinámico de la modernidad tardía tiene una de sus raíces en la reflexividad generalizada, la cual, juntamente con la profundización de la crisis de instituciones tradicionales, ha traído la necesidad de una construcción continua y activa de nuestras identidades. A partir de esto, las representaciones de feminidad y masculinidad tradicional se han visto socavadas, por lo que, frente a la búsqueda de nuevos referentes con miras a continuar con dicha construcción, espacios distintos al hogar o escuela han empezado a tomar relevancia.

Scientists and technology associated with nuclear, computer, and space science are examined, focusing on their respective treatments by the following writers: John Barth, Kurt Vonnegut, Thomas Pynchon, Isaac Asimov, and Arthur C.

abstract: In 2001, a refugee group of unaccompanied minors known as the Lost Boys of Sudan began arriving in the United States. Their early years were met with extensive media coverage and scores of well-meaning volunteers in scattered resettlement locations across the country. Their story was told in television news reports, documentary films, and published memoirs. Updates regularly appeared in newsprint media. Scholars have criticized public depictions of refugees as frequently de-politicized, devoid of historical context, and often depicting voiceless masses of humanity rather than individ

Abstract:

A child who has experienced the death of a parent may be traumatized by the loss. The nature of the child's reaction depends on a combination of several factors, including the circumstances surrounding the death, the nature of the child's relationship to the deceased parent and the existence of remaining, supportive, family members. The creative arts therapies have been successfully employed as a means of therapeutic intervention with bereaved children. One medium in the field of the creative arts therapies is the use of photography, or phototherapy. This research paper explores the use of pho
