The Relation Between Elementary Teachers’ Awareness of Schoolwide Response to Intervention Components for Reading and Self-Efficacy with Data-Based Decision Making
Response to Intervention (RTI) implementation can provide teachers with collective opportunities to learn about data-based decision making (DBDM) and increase their self-efficacy around this process. This study explores teacher awareness of RTI for reading implementation and its relation to self-efficacy for DBDM. Survey data comprised 1,000 teachers in 63 elementary schools across 12 states. Administrators of these 63 schools were interviewed us…
Measuring Elementary Student Reading Gain in the Context of School-Implemented Multitiered Systems of Support
There is limited research with mixed results about student reading gains in Grades 1 to 5 within typical school-implemented Response to Intervention (RTI). As part of a larger study, we used school-administered screening data on a widely used computer-adaptive test (Measures of Academic Progress) to describe reading gains across one academic year. We observed relatively faster growth in the first grade than in the later grades. We found stronger …
Deconstructing the English Major in Senior Capstone Courses
This article offers a rationale and model for a reflective capstone course for English majors. Rooted in the SoTL concepts of active transfer and project-based experiential learning, this course asks students to reflect on and analyze their undergraduate work while developing a toolkit to articulate the value of their humanities degrees. Toward that end, students create scaffolded professional projects in multiple genres that help them highlight …
Gendered livelihoods in the artisanal mining sector in the Great Lakes Region
Using data collected from a survey administered at seven mine sites in Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Rwanda, this paper examines differences in the livelihoods and economic well-being of women and men involved in artisanal and small-scale mining. To provide a deeper context, the results from the survey are combined with findings from other methodological approaches. The results provide evidence that men have more experience in the…
You Know What You Gotta Do
Context: Although parents can be influential toward the sexual attitudes and behaviors of adolescents, fathers are significantly underrepresented in studies of parental influences on adolescent sexual practices and behaviors. Method: This mixed method study assessed the feasibility of implementing a HIV/STI (human immunodeficiency virus/sexually transmitted infection) risk reduction program for African American fathers and sons. Focus groups were…
Associations of HIV testing with anxiety and stress within the African American church
The promotion of HIV testing among Black Americans is critical to reducing disproportionately high rates of HIV and AIDS. Anxiety and stress are often found to be associated with resistance to HIV testing. The Black Church, may have an important role in reducing stress and anxiety associated with HIV testing. In this cross-sectional survey-based study, we compared the responses of the congregants from two churches which offered testing and two wh…
The Role of Partner Support Among Women with Depressive Symptoms
The Black Man's Country Club”
Despite increasing HIV/AIDS morbidity and mortality, focus on young heterosexual African American men is limited. Nontraditional community-based prevention programs may be most effective for this demographic. Barbershops are one potential venue; however, barbers' and barbershop owners' views on the concept are less known. This paper describes attitudes and beliefs among barbers and barbershop owners regarding delivering a barber-facilitated, skil…
Bullying Behavior, Parents' Work Hours and Early Adolescents' Perceptions of Time Spent With Parents
This research investigates the relationships among bullying behavior, mother's and father's work hours, and early adolescents' perceptions of whether they spend sufficient time with their parents. In cross-sectional models, we find maternal work hours are modestly associated with increases in bullying behavior. However, in more rigorous change models, our findings indicate that over time maternal work hours bear no direct relationship to bullying…

Planning older people's discharge from acute hospital care
This paper reports findings from a pilot qualitative study which aimed to develop a methodology to explore older patients' participation in discharge decision-making. The study involved 5 months' ward-based observation and formal interviews with older patients and ward staff in a care of the elderly department of a district general hospital in Scotland. A purposive sample of 22 older patients was recruited, selected to give adequate representatio…
The Mommy Track
While there is extensive and compelling evidence that growing up in an impoverished background leads to early fertility, few studies explain why early socioeconomic disadvantage leads to early childbearing. Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, I test whether gender ideology, as well as educational and occupational aspirations, mediates the connection between poverty and teen fertility patterns. Traditional gender ideology de…

The Duration of Spells on Welfare and off Welfare among Lone Mothers in Ontario

Contracting for Program Evaluation Resources
A number of problems with balancing in-house and contract resources, and with the contracting process itself, prompted DSS to try to establish some “rules of thumb” for program evaluation, based on the experience of other government departments. Questions were asked of eleven departments and agencies on three main topics: the balance of in-house and contract resources, the process of selecting contractors, and the issue of costs and budgets. The …
