Insular sensation or synthetic experience
Until the shaken snowglobe settles
Previous research establishing the connection between social media and well-being is particularly relevant in light of findings of increased social media use during the COVID-19 pandemic. While research has fairly consistently established a relationship between media use, anxiety, depression and other indices of well-being, it has been less consistent in tying these variations to technology and user related factors. Researchers advocating for the…
Experiencing oneself in the other’s eyes
See Me as I see Myself
At the end of every semester, some students will boldly email me asking for their grade to be bumped. These requests and their motives seem closely tied to academic entitlement, which has mostly been studied quantitatively. Creating a dialogue with this published literature, this research seeks to uncover the lived meanings of a grade perceived as unjust. Using a Heideggerian life-world approach, I analyzed an email archive to explore how student…
Why Teach? A Project-ive Life-world Approach to Understanding What Teaching Means for Teachers
Previous literature has examined teachers’ motivations to teach in terms of intrinsic and extrinsic motives, personality dimensions, and teacher burnout. These findings have been cast in the rubric of differences between teachers and non-teachers and the linear relations between these measures among teachers. Utilizing a phenomenological approach (Giorgi, 1970) to analyze data generated in structured interviews with four tenured professors from s…
What's in a Name? Exploring the Impact of Naming Assignments
Past research has examined how various elements and style of a syllabus influence students’ perceptions of the class. Furthermore, students’ learning and grade orientations have been shown to impact academic performance and effort. We sought to add to this literature by exploring how an assignment’s name might impact estimates of time to be spent on and the importance of the assignment. We also explored the separate interaction effect of the atti…

Mending fences
Meanings of Compulsive Hoarding
Existential phenomenological research in the Duquesne school has been rooted in experiential research but also includes what von Eckartsberg (1998b) and Garza (2007) have described, respectively, as hermeneutic or archival research (for more detailed accounts of this lineage, see Polkinghorne 1989; Smith 1983, 2002; and von Eckartsberg 1998b). In such research, human cultural objects such as films, novels, and, in this case, television shows are …
