Offering Alternatives to Biblical Literalism May Be the Key to Increasing the Public's Acceptance of Evolution
Evolution acceptance is lower among religious than nonreligious individuals. One potential factor involves how Judeo-Christian individuals interpret the Bible. We administered a nationwide survey to investigate the relationship between religiosity, biblical interpretation, and evolution acceptance. We also surveyed undergraduate students in a biology course before and after they underwent a culturally competent module on evolution. We found that …
Changes in Attitudes and Barriers to Seasonal Influenza Vaccination from 2007 to 2023
A Randomized Study to Determine the Effect of a Culturally Focused Video Intervention on Improving HPV Vaccine Intentions in a Christian Population in the United States
Safe and effective vaccines have been developed that protect against high-risk strains of HPV, but uptake is relatively low. We previously identified factors such as sexual attitudes and HPV knowledge that impact the intent of Christian parents to vaccinate their children against HPV. We hypothesized that culturally specific interventions in the form of short videos would be effective at improving HPV vaccine intentions and attitudes. We made thr…
Effects of religious and cultural beliefs on vaccine attitudes in a Hispanic immigrant population in the United States
Hispanic Immigrants (HI) have lower vaccination rates than their non-Hispanic white counterparts. Culturally appropriate interventions are more influential in evoking change among viewers; therefore, it is important to understand the cultural factors of specific ethnic groups. In this study, we identify cultural barriers to vaccination of Hispanic Immigrants. An electronic survey was administered among HI parents living in the United States. Usin…

Preventing alcohol-exposed pregnancy among American-Indian youth
Research has determined that the prevention of alcohol-exposed pregnancies (AEP) must occur pre-conceptually with women, either by reducing alcohol intake in women planning pregnancy or at-risk for becoming pregnant, or by preventing pregnancy in women drinking at risky levels. One such AEP prevention programme with non-pregnant American Indian women is the Oglala Sioux Tribe (OST) CHOICES (Changing High-risk alcohOl use and Increasing Contracept…
Improvements from a Flipped Classroom May Simply Be the Fruits of Active Learning
The “flipped classroom” is a learning model in which content attainment is shifted forward to outside of class, then followed by instructor-facilitated concept application activities in class. Current studies on the flipped model are limited. Our goal was to provide quantitative and controlled data about the effectiveness of this model. Using a quasi-experimental design, we compared an active nonflipped classroom with an active flipped classroom,…
Establishing Survey Validity and Reliability for American Indians Through "Think Aloud" and Test-Retest Methods
The purpose of this study was to use a mixed-methods approach to determine the validity and reliability of measurements used within an alcohol-exposed pregnancy prevention program for American Indian women. To develop validity, content experts provided input into the survey measures, and a "think aloud" methodology was conducted with 23 American Indian women. After revising the measurements based on this input, a test-retest was conducted with 79…
Resuscitation and resurrection: The ethics of cloning cheetahs, mammoths, and Neanderthals
Recent events and advances address the possibility of cloning endangered and extinct species. The ethics of these types of cloning have special considerations, uniquely different from the types of cloning commonly practiced. Cloning of cheetahs (and other endangered or vulnerable species) may be ethically appropriate, given certain constraints. However, the ethics of cloning extinct species varies; for example, cloning mammoths and Neanderthals i…
