Examining Mentors’ In-the-Moment Observations of Youth-Related Concerns Within an After School Mentoring Program
Mentors serve as critical sources of support for young people and have a unique vantage point for observing the child’s life. Their perspective is also crucial for identifying the challenges mentors may encounter, which helps guide training and supervision. Using archival data, the current study sought to index real-time concerns that mentors were noticing with their youth mentees (ages 11–18) during a site-based mentoring program. This program d…
Simulated IV Pumps in Pathopharmacology
BACKGROUND: Medication safety is a core nursing competency, yet up to half of new graduate nurses are involved in errors. Traditional dosage calculation instruction often lacks clinical context, leaving students unprepared to translate dosage calculation into practice. This project explored the integration of tablet-based simulated IV pumps into a prelicensure nursing pathopharmacology course to strengthen experiential learning and confidence. ME…
Perioperative Management of Pediatric Epilepsy Neuromodulation Devices
Drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) has a significant burden on children and their families that extends beyond seizure management. Surgery can be a curative treatment but is sometimes not an option for certain generalized epilepsies or epilepsy in an eloquent region. Neuromodulation therapies (vagus nerve stimulation–VNS, deep brain stimulation–DBS, and responsive neurostimulation–RNS) have emerged as effective palliative treatments to mitigate seizur…
AI Séance
As AI becomes a prism through which we reflect, see, and make sense of the world, the way we create creative, transcendent experiences around AI can shape our relationship to it. Drawing inspiration from the ritual structures of Spiritualist séances and creative art-making séances of Hilma af Klint, we present reflections from a series of participatory experiments we called AI Séances. These gatherings brought together artists, technologists, and…
Does workplace inclusion mitigate emotional exhaustion? Evidence from local government organizations
Over the past few years, many local government organizations have become more concerned with employee burnout and identifying strategies to support employees. In this paper we examine inclusion as a resource that can shape emotional exhaustion and buffer against two demands, workplace incivility and COVID-19 job-related changes. With survey data collected from three local governments, we find that inclusion is associated with reduced feelings of …

How Counselors Can Help Faith Communities Lower Suicide Risk
The proportion of U.S. lives lost to suicide is increasing. It is imperative to study factors that decrease suicide rates, including religion. To collaborate with and train faith communities ( fc ), counselors need to understand the protective factors in fc . A purposive sample of 26 faith leaders and congregants completed interviews. The analysis yielded five protective factors (a safe, connected community, a skilled, equipped community, a well-…
Memes and Social Messages
This article documents the design and implementation of a culturally responsive critical media literacies curriculum centered around media representations of the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL). Students (grades 6-8) were invited to discuss media imagery relating to DAPL and to create memes reflecting their understandings. To situate this work, we articulate a framework that blends critical media literacies and culturally responsive and sustaining …
Challenging mass incarceration in the City of Care
Challenges to mass incarceration often come from places seeking to bolster “community” sanctions and community-based alternatives to punishment. In the City of Care, local community activists challenged growing rates of juvenile incarceration and the overrepresentation of youth of color in juvenile detention by advocating for a community-based “circle of care”. These efforts resulted in the local juvenile court embracing the “least restrictive in…
The contribution of qualitative research to the Healthy Foundations life-stage segmentation
This paper presents the results of the qualitative phase of Healthy Foundations, a study that groups people according to their motivations to live healthily or otherwise, their lifestyles, and the circumstances that affect this. These segments are ‘Health Conscious Realists’, ‘Balanced Compensators’, ‘Live for Todays’, ‘Unconfident Fatalists’ and ‘Hedonistic Immortals’. The aim was to explore people’s attitudes and motivations to live healthily o…
Role Ambiguity as a Moderator of Occupational Self-Efficacy and Job Satisfaction
Role ambiguity was examined as a moderator of occupational self-efficacy and job satisfaction on the basis of the data obtained from 280 employees of U.S. housing finance agencies in four states. The interaction effect was found to be small but significant. The practical implications of role ambiguity at different levels of occupational self-efficacy were discussed. The value of reducing role ambiguity is higher for those who have low self-effica…

Perceived Gender of a Pastor's Name and Ratings of Vocational Success
Undergraduate students (16 men and 16 women) from a Christian university read a 1-page description of a pastor named either "Carl Anderson" or "Carol Anderson." Students rated each named pastor on four items summed for a measure of vocational success. We predicted, based on role congruity, that students would rate a female-named pastor lower than a male-named pastor on the measure, but women's ratings of pastoral vocational success were significa…

A Model of Customer Satisfaction with Service Encounters Involving Failure and Recovery
Customers often react strongly to service failures, so it is critical that an organization's recovery efforts be equally strong and effective. In this article, the authors develop a model of customer satisfaction with service failure/recovery encounters based on an exchange framework that integrates concepts from both the consumer satisfaction and social justice literature, using principles of resource exchange, mental accounting, and prospect th…
