The Relationship between Teachers’ Measures of Resilience and Self-efficacy with their Intent to Remain in the Teaching Profession.
The Relationship between Teachers’ Measures of Resilience and Self-efficacy with their Intent to Remain in the Teaching Profession.

The study examined MDCPS teachers’ measure of resiliency and self-efficacy and their intention to remain in the teaching profession. A survey was sent to 2,000 MDCPS teachers who work within schools located in the Central Region. The survey consisted of the Teachers’ Sense of Self-Efficacy Scale, the Teacher Resiliency Survey, and the Intent to Stay Scale. Demographics information, teaching assignment, preservice preparation program, and Title I school status questions were part of the survey to account for them as control variables. The survey concluded with questions regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. An ordinary least-squares regression analysis was used to predict the… ... [Learn More]

Community-Engaged Development of a Parent-Child Book Reading Wise Intervention
Community-Engaged Development of a Parent-Child Book Reading Wise Intervention

Children living in communities with high rates of poverty experience significant detriment to their academic skills and social, emotional, and behavioral health. Though a range of evidence-based interventions exist that aim to reduce these disparities, they face substantial barriers (e.g., related to financial and human resources, opportunity cost to target families, variable fit across the diverse populations in low-income households). In contrast, wise interventions use psychologically precise pathways to produce small, recursive changes that result in significant benefits. As such, they represent a resource efficient strategy with the potential for considerable impact with contextual adaptation. The current study utilized social… ... [Learn More]

Analyzing and Improving Investigative Interviewers’ Memory for Content, Source, and Questions
Analyzing and Improving Investigative Interviewers’ Memory for Content, Source, and Questions

As witness interviews are rarely recorded in the U.S., interviewers’ memory for these conversations is critical. In the present study, three types of memory were analyzed: what was said during the interview (content), who said it (source), and what questions were used to elicit information (question). Although content is the driving force in investigations, and research reveals that interviewers primarily recall the gist of the interview, source and question information are diagnostic of content accuracy. Individuals can misattribute interviewer information to the witness, making information seem more reliable than it was, and although yes/no questions are the least likely to… ... [Learn More]

Gender Differences, Vitamin B6, Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids, and Inflammation-related Diseases
Gender Differences, Vitamin B6, Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids, and Inflammation-related Diseases

Vitamin B6-restricted diets and low plasma pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) status altered plasma polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) compositions. The relationship of aging with vitamin B6 status and PUFA metabolism is poorly understood. This dissertation explored the association between vitamin B6 intake and status and plasma PUFA in US young/middle-aged adults and in older adults from NHANES 2003-2004. Future research plans will examine the relationships among vitamin B6, PUFA, inflammatory diseases, including chronic liver diseases; however, there is a gap in plasma PLP data in the Miami Adult Studies in HIV (MASH) cohort data on these relationships. Thus, the relationship between substance… ... [Learn More]

Essays on Macroeconomics and Financial Economics
Essays on Macroeconomics and Financial Economics

This dissertation comprises of three Essays. The first essay classifies households as savers and borrowers based on their wealth during the credit cycle. It examines the wealth effects of the saving and housing decisions of heterogeneous households over a credit cycle. To do so, we employ the Difference-in-Difference estimator and find evidence of a significant difference between the wealth effect for savers and borrowers. In the second essay, we examine the extent to which credit-constrained households are able to accumulate wealth when the macro environment is characterized by the presence of a liquidity trap and borrowing constraints. Our evidence highlights… ... [Learn More]
