Author Celebration 2015

FORWARD This year’s Author Celebration showcases the rich diversity of scholarship and creativity of our 2014 authors and includes a range of topics from the monitoring of the 2014 El Salvador Presidential election to Etruscan art, vision rehabilitation, and the controversial ruling on Tiger Wood’s boulder tee shot.

Today we recognize their dedication, discipline, and hard work; honor their achievements; and, celebrate their contributions to the Ferris community and their professional disciplines.

Paul Blake Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs

Today’s academic library provides vital access to scholarly and creative work, and helps users find the most appropriate work for their individual learning and research needs. These functions provide building blocks that help students, faculty and staff achieve success through creating new knowledge, art, and other works for themselves, and whole communities.

Another important role the library can play is to bring greater attention to and celebrate the excellent work students, faculty and staff disseminate and exhibit, built in part on the foundation the library and its services provide.

In many cases at Ferris, this work results from faculty-student and other collaboration. It documents the opportunity Ferris offers students to gain valuable experience before beginning their careers. It also documents our faculty’s commitment to advancing their fields, pursuing their passions, and teaching the next generation of practitioners, researchers, and artists who will contribute new knowledge and creativity to the world.

The Ferris Library for Information, Technology and Education congratulates the 2014 Ferris authors and creators, and looks forward to celebrating continued success in the years to come.

PRESENTATION Learning from a Younger Democracy:

International Election Monitoring in El Salvador’s 2014 Presidential Election This session focused on the experiences of US International Election observers who were invited to monitor the 2014 presidential election in El Salvador. Despite having only a small fraction of the resources devoted to US elections, the elections were conducted in a fair and transparent manner. This was especially striking considering that the main two parties were enemy combatants in the civil war a short 22 years ago. This session was of special interest to social workers and others working on social justice issues of coalition building through the solidarity model and use of a human rights unifying framework.

PRESENTATION Enhancing Child Welfare Through Intensively Integrated

Smartphone Mobile Technology (Co-Author: Vizina-Roubal, J.) Emerging mobile technologies provide many opportunities for child welfare workers to efficiently complete field tasks thereby providing better client outcomes. Presenters discussed how leveraging mobile technologies mitigates challenges in field work, such as Secondary Traumatic Stress, worker safety, and Compassion Fatigue, while enhancing quality, oversight, efficiency, and stakeholder relationships.

She has been a Ferris faculty member since 2011 and teaches a variety of undergraduate courses. Her research interests include evidence-based teaching and learning, student development of moral reasoning, and healthcare ethics.

POSTER SESSION An Innovative Approach to Exploring

End-of-Life Issues After identifying a curricular gap, a simulation was developed for senior nursing students to experience an end-of-life care situation. The poster presentation summarized the simulated complex needs of a Down syndrome pediatric patient who is on life support after suffering a traumatic brain injury.

The simulation brings together multiple disciplines in an effort to experience the interdisciplinary approach to decision-making and care delivery, and explore the ethical principles associated with the care of this pediatric patient and her parents.

Over the course of two hours, students experience the evolving simulation in three phases: bedside care, interdisciplinary family care conference, and a hospital ethics committee. Prior to the simulation, student participants are informed of the broad topic to encourage review of discipline specific principles of care. To complete the experience, all participants participate in debriefing to examine what happened and what was learned.

PAPER PRESENTATION French Modernism and Poster

Hoardings in Working-Class Paris: Maximilien Luce’s La Rue Mouffetard (1889–1890) Although art history has often characterized the relationship of commodity culture to modern visual art as a contentious one, more recently scholars have documented the assimilation of imagery from advertising posters, shop signs and window displays into Impressionist painting. Neo-Impressionist artists also addressed the subject of advertising as a central theme and concern. Maximilien Luce’s painting, La Rue Mouffetard (1889-1890, Indianapolis Museum of Art), for example, features a large advertising hoarding as dominating the working-class neighborhood. This paper

Author Celebration 2015

utilized historical photographs and critical writings from the 1880s and 1890s to explore the painting as providing a visual remnant of the integration of advertising into working-class quartiers. As the paper argued, La Rue Mouffetard should be analyzed within the specific reception of the advertising poster in avant-garde circles, which imbued the posters with a decidedly political reading.

PAPER PRESENTATION Thinking Globally, Designing Locally: Michigan

Modern within an International Context This one-hour presentation analyzed Michigan Modern design within the larger perspective of late nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century European artistic movements. Artists and designers associated with Art nouveau in France and Belgium, de Stijl in the Netherlands, Constructivism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, and the Bauhaus in Germany provided the theoretical foundation, utopian vision and aesthetic prototypes for reform in architecture, furniture, and industrial design that, as this paper indicated, carried over into mid-century American modern design.

PAPER PRESENTATION Poster DĂŠnicheurs and the Cultivation of Everyday

Aesthetics in Fin-de-siècle Paris From 1880 to 1900 the illustrated poster was regarded as one of the most ubiquitous visual images in the city of Paris. Displayed on kiosks and hoardings along boulevards of bourgeois districts and plastered over the decrepit architecture of working-class neighborhoods, illustrated posters were often praised for providing color imagery to the urban public. For critics living in Paris, the illustrated poster represented a subversive and anti-establishment emblem that challenged the naturalism of Academic art and destabilized artistic hierarchies. This text-image analysis charted the reception of French publicity posters by critics who were associated with Parisian artistic and literary circles, and who were central for establishing new standards for aesthetic experience as rooted in the everyday and the marginal.

PAPER PRESENTATION Fort Maurepas: Five

Manifestations of Power on the Mississippi Gulf Coast In 1699, men led by the French explorer Pierre LeMoyne, Sieur d’Iberville built a fort on the Gulf Coast in what is today Ocean Springs, MS. Seeking to secure the mouth of the Mississippi River for France but not able to find a suitable site in southern Louisiana, d’Iberville settled on a plot of relatively high land 67 miles to the east for a wooden stockade named Fort Maurepas—a physical manifestation of colonial power.

Garrisoned by 86 men, Fort Maurepas proved to be an inhospitable place, far from fresh water and infested by alligators, insects, and snakes. The fort was abandoned in 1702 when the French moved further east to what is now Mobile, Alabama. This paper examines the history of Fort Maurepas via five manifestations of power.

PAPER PRESENTATION Teaching Today’s Master Builder: A Collaborative

Studio in Architecture and Construction Management (Co-Authors: Gregory, A.D., McGlohn, E.M.) A growing consensus exists that the multiple professions that make up the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industries are too disparate to effectively solve the increasingly complex design and construction problems of the 21st century. In industry as well as the academy, many leaders believe that an integrated approach—whether it is called design-build, Integrated Project Delivery (IPD), a modern master builder (to use Dr. Barbara Jackson’s term), or some other designation—is the best way to deliver sustainable and safe high performance buildings on time and on schedule. This paper explores the Spring 2013 combined architecture-construction management studio at Mississippi State University (MSU).

Beverly J. DeMarr, Professor DeMarr holds a Ph.D. in OB/HRM from Michigan State University.

PAPER PRESENTATION Helping the Beethoven lover in Opryland: Learning

to hear different voices (Co-Authors: Fender, C.M., & Stickney, L.T.) Just as a classical music lover may feel totally lost in Nashville, America’s country music heart, so may students whose voices speak other than what their listeners expect to hear. At a minimum, this can cause misunderstandings; at worst, it can completely derail classroom discussions or even cause conflict. Attendees of this interactive session shared their experiences in dealing with students whose communication and even actions are different enough to create barriers to understanding, explored options for handling these situations, and participated in a paired activity that enabled students to listen, hear, and consider another’s ideas.

PAPER PRESENTATION Experiential HR: A potluck for reviving and

expanding your repertoire (Co-Authors: de Janasz, S.C., Goldberg, C., Behson, S.J., Berkley, R.A., Bowes-Sperry, L., Ensher, E., Forret, M.L., Kaplan, D.M., Lankau, M.J, Peiperl, M., Schneer, J.A., Valcour, M., & Van Emmerick, H.) This session provided those who teach Human Resources and Organizational Behavior an opportunity to expand their repertoire of exercises and pedagogies.

Using a roundtable or “potluck” format, attendees chose among a variety of HR topics and learned about successful experiential exercises aimed at helping students grasp fundamental concepts within that topic. A menu of short descriptions of each of the exercises were provided at the opening of the session. Participants then had the opportunity to sample up to three menu items, by attending table sessions led by some of the brightest faculty from around the world. During each of the table sessions, presenters provided a brief introduction to the exercise, ran participants through some or all of the exercise, and discussed implications and modifications that may be appropriate for different audiences and/or classroom settings.

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE An Important Link in the Chain

Connecting Ancient Chinese Philosophy to Present-day Thinking of Chinese Technical Communication Philosophy: Introducing Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine, China’s first comprehensive medical work, served as the key link between Yi Jing, which initiated China’s high-context culture, and the high-context style of modern Chinese technical communication.

In the form of dialogues between Yellow Emperor and his minister, its 24 fascicles cover four major topics of the organs, diagnosis, diseases, and treatments. The book expands on Yi Jing’s philosophy through integrating three interrelated concepts: Tao, Yin and Yang, and Five Elements (word, fire, soil, metal, and water). In this way, the book, for the first time in Chinese history, explicitly treated humans and their behaviors as individual events conditioned by the natural context, emphasizing context as the conditioning force. This emphasis on context is manifest in modern Chinese technical communication as two textual devices of establishing personal relationships and creating ideal physical environments.

Canada and faculty on one hundred and twenty different colleges and universities across the United States on ways to apply current brain research to improve teaching and students’ learning.

PAPER PRESENTATION “The New Science of Learning: How to Live in

Harmony with Your Brain” Almost daily neuroscience, biology, and cognitive science researchers reveal new insights about how the human brain works and learns. The value of this research is its potential to elevate the learning success of all students regardless of their learning situations. This research about human learning requires changes in the way teaching is approached and in what students are told about how to be successful learners. This presentation discussed many of these new research findings and suggested ways to apply them in a higher education setting. Topics included findings on movements role in learning, exercise, stress, sleep, memory, attention, pattern recognition and the role the human senses play in learning and memory.

PAPER PRESENTATION Who’s next? Succession planning

at Royal Beginnings Bridal Shop (Co-Author: Levenburg, N.) This case and instructor’s manual is about a 25-year-old bridal and formal wear business in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The 67-year-old owner is eyeing retirement and beginning to contemplate alternatives for the continuance of her business.

The case is designed to be used in a course in which students focus on succession planning in small and family-owned businesses. Students gain a general overview of retail operations within a small apparel (bridal wear) retail shop, as well as insights into its owners, market, customers’ behavior, and its performance over time. This enables students to assess the viability of the business over the longer term. Based on the information provided about succession alternatives, including the business owner’s family and her employees, students develop recommendations concerning continuance of the business, marketing to potential successors and succession planning, and the transfer of power.

Specifically, he focused on the Etruscan goddess Menerva and how images of the goddess constructed and reflected the values of the Etruscan culture. His presentation used an art historian’s lens to analyze Menerva’s appearance on bronze mirrors. She was strong and sensitive, protecting male heroes on the battlefield and assisting mothers and children during the dangerous act of childbirth.

A strong female figure, Menerva remains a role model in modern contexts.

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE The Association Between

Correctional Orientation and Organizational Citizenship Behaviors Among Correctional Staff (Co-Authors: Lambert, E.G., & BartonBellessa, S.M.) This study sought to examine the relationship between correctional orientation (support for rehabilitation or punishment) and organizational citizenship behaviors (going above and beyond what is expected at work). All available staff at a Midwestern, high-security prison that housed juvenile offenders sentenced as adults were surveyed. Regression results suggest that correctional orientation does have a direct impact on organizational citizenship. Those staff indicating greater support for rehabilitation were more like to report engagement in organizational citizenship behaviors whereas support for punishment had a non-significant association. In addition to the benefits of increased support for rehabilitation, such as better inmate relations, job satisfaction, and lower job stress, the current results suggest that increasing support for rehabilitation can result in greater engagement in citizenship behaviors.

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE Developing An Organization

By Predicting Employee Retention By Matching Corporate Culture With Employee’s Values: A Correlation Study (Co-Author: Ballaro, J.) This study gathered information using a correlational design and the findings determined that individuals’ values matched to an organization’s culture illustrated longer retention rates adding valuable information to current literature for small to mid-sized organizations. The study’s findings resulted in a slight correlation but not a significant one between employee tenure to the match variable for organizational culture. Organizational leaders in SMBs may benefit from the study by recognizing that even a slight correlation of matching organizational culture to individual values could have significant benefits for developing organizations with the goal to reduce costs by lowering employee turnover rates and increasing job satisfaction and employee productivity. Fifty-five percent of the participants in this study believe that matching one’s values to the organization’s culture was significant for job satisfaction and their decision to remain with the organization.

BOOK CHAPTER Global Leadership: Adapt, Meet

Challenges and Manage Change The dynamic nature of global health and the inability to control the natural environment necessitates global health leaders who can adapt, meet challenges, and manage change. Leadership studies have identified several attributes that are significant to the overall development of the leader. However, the ability to be flexible and adapt to the environment of the organization is most essential and is of highest

Author Celebration 2015

attainable value for an effective leader since leaders survive and excel because they participate in a lifelong learning process. This ability to adapt will drive the philosophy of change management and crisis management to effectively guide an organization. Keeping the themes of leadership constant and engaging in leadership roles as visionaries and agents of culture change along with managing interaction with followers and using leadership styles is essential for well-rounded leaders.

ARTIST’S PROOF Letters Lost Then Found Letters Lost Then Found, a limited edition artist’s proof, was designed to engage the reader in a number of different ways. The letters themselves can be read sequentially from cover to cover, but there are also brief excerpts next to each letter that form a sort of poetic series when read one after the other. Freddie had served in the China Burma India Theatre, often referred to as the War’s forgotten theatre, and the ‘Day in History’ section on each page gives you a glimpse of what was happening in World War II at the time each letter was written. Then a ticker tape, reminiscent of the Western Union Telegram, runs across the bottom of the pages, explaining why the China Burma India Theatre was such an important part of the larger conflict.

This artist’s proof has been recognized with multiple awards: 2014 National AAF Gold Student ADDY Award, Publication Design, 2014 District Six AAF Gold Student ADDY Award, Publication Design, 2014 West Michigan AAF Student Best of Show, Publication Design, and 2014 West Michigan AAF Gold Student ADDY Award, Publication Design.

PAPER PRESENTATION Diversifying Cybersecurity

Education: A Non-Technical Approach to Technical Studies (Co-Author: Katerattanakul, P.) Drawing on globalization shaped by the economic, legal, political, religion, and social dimensions, extant literature discloses that infusing social science, cultural and political studies into cybersecurity education could better prepare students for the job market by making students realize the complexity in the real world. This study presents the efforts of integrating cultural, social, and political dimensions into the cybersecurity curriculum in a public, regional university in the Midwest of the United States. In particular, this study presents the approaches of introducing intelligence analysis coursework that requires students to understand the analysis of competing hypotheses for drawing conclusions related to the possible cyberattack from a foreign nation, identify the cultural differences across nations for comprehending the hacking motivation of a different nation, and recognize an individual’s cognitive and cultural biases during the process of evaluating a cultural event.

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE Effective Post-Signing Market Check

or Window Dressing? The Role of Go-Shop Provisions in M&A Transactions (Co-Author: Jeon, J.Q.) This paper examines the use of go-shop provisions in M&A. The authors find that go-shop deals tend to have higher deal premiums and receive more competing bids while the length of the go-shop period does not affect deal premium and competition. Also, deals are less likely to be completed when a go-shop provision is included and when the go-shop length is longer. However, go-shops have no effect on the completion of high premium deals.

The authors also find that the presence of a go-shop provision leads to a positive market reaction to deal announcements. Overall, the findings support the proposition that go-shops reflect the efforts of target managers to fulfill the Revlon duties in the form of a post-signing market check, which is consistent with stewardship theory.

PAPER PRESENTATION Architectural Design for

Adaptability and Deconstruction The adaptive reuse of existing buildings for new purposes represents a highly sustainable approach to architectural design. By reusing existing building stock for new projects the amount of energy used over a building’s life is greatly reduced. But while the preservation of embodied energy through the adaptive reuse of existing structures is widely discussed within the sustainability discourse, and broadly supported by groups such as the USGBC/LEED, the purposeful design of new buildings in a manner that facilitates future adaptive reuse is lacking. This paper proposes that a purposeful Design for Adaptability and Deconstruction (DFAD) approach to the design of new buildings, which incorporates principles of Design for Future Adaptive Reuse (DFAR) and Design for Disassembly and Deconstruction (DfD), is equally important to the reuse of existing buildings in achieving built environment sustainability.

PAPER PRESENTATION Working Toward a New Studio Pedagogy – The

Ferris State University Small Town Studio Seeking to embody a multi-scaler and holistic approach to sustainability and architectural design education, the Small Town Studio in the Ferris State University Architecture and Sustainability Program has been established to educate architecture and design professionals with a broad understanding of sustainability. This paper introduces the Small Town Studio and its approach to an architectural studio pedagogy grounded in design research, problem-solving, and communication. It also proposes that if an urban future and the associated built environment is to be built sustainably, it will be necessary to educate a new class of architects well versed in the language of holistic sustainability.

PAPER PRESENTATION Social Identity, Empathy, Prejudice and Helping (Co-

Authors: Holmes, S.Y., Jones, D., & McGlynn, C.) Social identity theory suggests that out-group bias inhibits empathy and helping toward out-groups members. These tendencies may be moderated by the strength of in-group identification. A 2 (gender) x 2 (identity strength) x 2 (strong or weak allegation) mixed factorial experiment yielded 2 significant main effects for gender identity and strength of allegation. Strongly masculine men were less likely to help a woman student alleging biased grading and strongly feminine women were less likely to help a man student alleging biased grading than those with lower gender identity scores. However, all participants offered more help to students with strong evidence of grading bias than to students making a grade bias accusation without substantiating evidence.

POSTER SESSION Influence of Optometrist Attire on the

Doctor-Patient Relationship (Co-Authors: Hicks, C., & Hubbard, T.) The doctor - patient relationship can be influenced by a large number of factors, including doctor attire. A review of current literature revealed there is no research regarding the influence of attire on the optometrist - patient relationship. This study aims to evaluate the patient perception and influence of attire on the doctor - patient relationship. Respondents completed a survey following a review of four pictures of the same optometrist dressed in different attire. Data will be collected from 100 patients seen at the University Eye Center in Big Rapids, MI. Patient preferences for doctor attire will be examined using descriptive statistics and chi-square analysis to determine what apparel is most beneficial to the doctor - patient relationship. Data collected from this study will serve to strengthen the doctor - patient relationship as well as aid in patient adherence to treatment regiments, doctor trust, and increase patient confidence in the optometrist.

PAPER PRESENTATION Gaming Your Class: Flipping and Gamification in

the Classroom to Maximize Student Learning (Co-Authors: Frees, M., & Woodman, H.) Within this presentation, participants were given the opportunities to recognize the components of a flipped class approach in order to weigh its usefulness within their own classroom; to identify existing content that could be flipped in order to increase student learning and engagement; to discover the difference between gaming for concepts and gaming for answers by using student created games; and to engage in student gaming activities to explore practical application of educational gaming in their own discipline.

PAPER PRESENTATION Flip Your Class and Keep Flipping: Transforming

Library Instruction (Co-Author: Kermit-Canfield, M.) This presentation was for instructors who are tired of cramming fifty minutes of instruction into a one-shot visit. It was also for those who want to both engage their students and energize their library sessions. “Flip Your Class� showed professors how to transform their instructions by delivering library content outside of class and then emphasized key concepts with active learning classroom visits. The presentation also discussed how flipping, active learning, and assessment work together to improve student retention and success.

Tim Powers, Assistant Professor Powers was born in Detroit, in 1962. He studied graphic design at the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit, receiving his BFA in 1986. He has worked in the graphics arts industry for the past 30 years during which time he has received several awards from the AAF including a national gold Addy Award. Powers received his MFA from the Art Institute of Boston in 2011 with a focus in object making.

ART EXHIBITION Below the Surface, Grand Rapids

Art Museum Powers’ practice is rooted in material exploration and form. This involves retasking, reinterpreting, and transforming ubiquitous material and then redirecting the materials expected application into original forms. His dimensional design and artistic experience are accessed in producing objects that find their relevance in a mix of function, concept, aesthetics, and wonder. Process is an integral factor in the work as the objects become artifacts of the act. His work benefits from the struggle and harmony between the material’s will and his own. This fluid process continues perpetually by way of its unanticipated and unique interaction with each viewer.

Producing unanticipated results, a predominant value of the objects, the pieces strive to transcend the mere perceptual quality of material and composition.

Avesh Raghunandan, Professor Raghunandan is currently a Professor at the Michigan College of Optometry and provides patient care as a clinical instructor in the Pediatric and Binocular Vision Service, Primary Care Service and Electrodiagnostic Service at the University Eye Center. He lectures in area of Vision Science. His research interests include binocular vision, eye movements, motion processing, reading processing, and spatial vision in normal and abnormal visual systems.

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE Binocular Capture: Role of non-

linear position mechanisms (Co-Author: Andrus, J.) This study provides convincing evidence that the shift in the perceived location of monocular targets is mediated by a high-level feature extraction position mechanism.

The results of this study elucidates mechanisms that assign position information to targets visible in normal human visual systems. It also provides evidence that shifts in visual direction can occur in normal human visual systems. The latter observation raises the question whether a similar mechanism mediates shifts in visual direction reported in abnormal visual systems e.g. anomalous correspondence.

Vandana Rajaram, Associate Professor Rajaram is an Associate Professor at the Michigan College of Optometry and team teaches in the areas of Vision Science I & II, Biostatistics, Epidemiology, Research Design, Clinical Problem Solving, and Physical Optics (laboratory). Her research interests include binocular vision, visual psychophysics, and more recently, the visual performance of scleral contact lenses.

PAPER PRESENTATION Comparative Visual Performance

of Scleral Lens, Soft Contact Lenses and Spectacle Lenses in Young Adults (Co-Authors: Ramdass, S., LaBelle, L., Sparks, N., & Norman, C.) The authors evaluated the visual performance of scleral contact lenses in comparison to SCL and spectacle lens corrections in a group of young adults. Monocular (OD) visual performance was evaluated under photopic conditions by measuring contrast sensitivity, low and high contrast acuities, and aberrations with each modality of correction. A sample of subjects (N=42) between the age range 21-35 years were included in the study. Mean threshold contrast and LogMAR acuity were analyzed using a two way Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Paired T-test (two-tailed) was used to compare average aberrations. Under the conditions tested, a statistically significant reduction in aberrations with scleral lenses compared to SCL was found. The other visual performance measures were comparable between all groups. These results could be significant for patients that suffer from high aberrations.

Christopher Redker, Assistant Professor Redker’s current areas of interest include processes underlying attitude formation and change (e.g., evaluative conditioning), individual differences in affective orientation, various media effects on cognition and behavior, and various topics within the domain of consumer research (e.g., how various forms of product placement influence implicit and explicit consumer attitudes, self-brand connections, purchasing intentions and behavior).

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE Conscious and nonconscious effects

of product placement: Brand recall and active persuasion knowledge affect brand attitudes and brand self-identification differently (Co-Authors: Gibson, B., & Zimmerman, I.) This research evaluated how brand recall and persuasion knowledge combined to affect brand attitudes and brand self-identification following product placement.

In two experiments, implicit brand self-identification for a placed brand increased regardless of brand recall and persuasion knowledge activation. In contrast, brand

25

recall led to increased brand attitudes when persuasion knowledge was not primed, but decreased brand attitudes when it was primed. The results suggest that product placement can affect both implicit and explicit measures, and that one placement experience can have both positive and negative consequences depending on brand recall and whether viewers are primed to think about product placement.

Mellissa Jeanette Redman, Graduate Assistant, Student Redman, a native of Akron, Ohio, earned her BFA in Painting and Drawing from the University of Akron. She now resides in Grand Rapids, Michigan where she is pursuing an MFA in Painting at the Kendall College of Art and Design. Mellissa is also a freelance illustrator. Continuing a passion for working in her community, Redman has interned with the West Michigan Center for Arts and Technology. She is also currently a youth instructor in Kendall’s Continuing Studies program.

PAINTING Dreamlike State The concept of “masking” the true self is something that is well known by nearly every human being. In many ways, it can be described as an elaborate act, a play of sorts; in others, a survival tactic that maintains order and control. Redman believes both examples of these methods of coping can have positive outcomes. Her goal with this series of work is to make the hidden external, to depict what swallowed fears and anxieties would appear if made into tangible objects.

PAPER The Landscape of Internet Culture In this paper, Redman explores the complexities of virtual communication via the Internet, the conventions of communities of Internet users, and the real world implications of having an online persona. Ethical considerations must be made in regards to privacy, but most of all, of an individual’s own behavior online.

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE Effects of Solution-Focused Versus Problem-Focused

Intake Questions on Pre-treatment Change (Co-Authors: Smock, S. A., Bischof, G. H., & Sauer, E. M.) This research tested the hypothesis that changing the language of intake procedures could be beneficial. Two randomized studies compared solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) intake procedures with traditional intake procedures. In Study 1, clients completed either a standard written intake form with problem-focused questions or an SFBT Short Intake Form. Clients answering the solution-focused questions described significantly more solutions and significantly fewer problems than the comparison group. Study 2 compared an SFBT intake interview with a DSMbased diagnostic intake interview. Clients in the SFBT intake interview improved significantly on the Outcome Questionnaire (OQ) before their first therapy session, whereas those in the diagnostic intake did not. Using solution-focused language in intake procedures can change the information that clients provide and lead to pretreatment change.

ADVANCED ONLINE PUBLICATION Effects of Progressive Muscle

Relaxation Intervention in Extremity Fracture Surgery Patients (Co-Authors: Xie, L., Deng, Y., Zhang, J., Tang Y., & Zhou, J.) The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of Progressive Muscle Relaxation Training (PMRT) on state anxiety and perceived self-efficacy in hospitalized patients admitted for an extremity fracture receiving elective surgery.

Eighty-four patients met the inclusion criteria and all were randomly assigned to either the PMRT group or the control group. The control group received standard orthopedic nursing care, and the PMRT group received standard care along with daily PMRT throughout their hospitalization. The State Anxiety Inventory and General Self-Efficacy Scales were administered before and after the intervention.

Repeated measures ANOVA showed that PMRT is effective in reducing state anxiety and enhancing the general self-efficacy of Chinese patients with extremity fracture undergoing an elective surgery.

Academy Students: Comparison of Those Receiving Such Instruction with Those in Traditional Programs (Co-Author: Bierlein-Palmer, L.) Using a non-equivalent comparison group exploratory quasi-experimental design, this study explored the perceptions of police academy trainees toward their problembased learning instruction as compared to police academy trainees who received their training via a more traditional lecture-based method. Open-ended student responses and faculty input favored the problem-based approach. These mixed, primarily non-significant findings are similar to research conducted on problembased teaching methodologies in the medical field, and suggest the need for further research on this model of teaching and learning within police academies.

The mission of this chapter is to outline the collaborative efforts of a PDS partnership to evaluate an area of need within the pre-service teacher preparation practicum experience and develop a plan to most effectively meet that need. This collaborative effort utilized the knowledge and experiences of both university and school professionals to optimize the experience of pre-service teachers and students in a secondary Professional Development School. Further, we describe the process used in combining the resources available at the university and high school, to develop a educational DVD for use in pre-service teacher practicum experiences, and report the results of the pilot implementation.

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE The Development of A Discussion Rubric for Online

Courses: Standardizing Expectations of Graduate Students in Online Scholarly Discussions (Co-Authors: Siebert, C., & Freedman, D.) This paper reports on the design and evaluation of a rubric for assessing discussions in online graduate level education courses. The aims of the research were twofold.

The first goal was to develop a discussion rubric that provides guidance to graduate students participating in online courses that are heavily discussion based. The second goal was to evaluate the efficacy of the rubric in student comfort with the expectations for the course and the quality of the discussions. Qualitative and quantitative course evaluations from four sections of an online graduate course are utilized to report on the effectiveness of the rubric upon implementation. Student average grades also show a statistically significant increase with the implementation of the rubric.

SCHOLARLY ARTICLE A Relationship Between Harlem

Renaissance Painter Jacob Lawrence and Comic Book Structure and Theory When looking at the influence that comics have had on culture in America attention is drawn to popular film, TV and radio adaptations and pop-art movements. Comics may have had an influence on the early work of the fine artist Jacob Lawrence, who wove narrative together between sequential images and text. Lawrence was a pioneer of African-American art during the late Harlem Renaissance. Celebrated as one of the great American painters of the 20th century, little discussion is made about the relevance of his work in the field of sequential art studies. Lawrence may be an under-valued artist within the scholarship of sequential art. By reviewing Jacob Lawrence’s art through the lens of comic structure and theory, a stronger connection can be surmised between his art and that of the history of comics, expanding the relationship that popular culture and fine art share.
