Narrative Dynamics in Cross-Cultural Poetry
Narratology, the study of narrative structures and techniques, is an effective tool for analyzing Kanhaiyalal Sethia and William Wordsworth’s poetry. Despite their origins in different cultural and historical contexts, both poets demonstrate mastery of narrative strategies that extend beyond their immediate surroundings. Sethia’s poetry, which is rooted in Rajasthani cultural and spiritual traditions, employs allegory, minimalism, and temporal fl…
It's not just a science thing
Informed scientific thinking is a vital component of engaging all socioscientific issues (SSI) such as climate change and the COVID‐19 pandemic. However, socioscientific engagement may be influenced by sociocultural factors and mis/disinformation efforts to the widespread detriment of human and environmental well‐being. The purpose of this mixed‐methods study was to determine how 506 post‐secondary life science majors' COVID‐19 related nature sci…

Hierarchical moderated multiple regression analyses demonstra…

We focus on one of the countries in the region, Barbados, and use an emic approach to analyze and understand the culture and its implications for the work…

Stereotypes of Asian students as being more prone to plagiarize are frequently found in the literature, though not concretely substantiated. This study used a behavioral criterion to examine the relationships among ethnicity, acculturation, and plagiari…
Upward Impression Management
Employees often seek to create favorable impressions with their managers. An empirical study of the antecedents, process, and consequences of influence strategies in upward impression management found that subordinates have both multiple goals and strategies. Subordinates' strategies varied with their goals in impression management. They also reported using a wider range of strategies than usually attributed to impression management. Managerial a…
