  • Perceiving Big Five Traits Accurately at True Zero Acquaintance

    Creator:
    Brown, Jill A.
    Abstract:
    This research focused on the accuracy of trait judgments at zero acquaintance and after five minutes of interaction. Thirty-five undergraduates judged the neuroticism, extraversion, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness of four to six others whom they did not know. Participants then interacted in one-on-one conversations with each target for five minutes....

  • Numerical Effects on Timing System Pathways

    Creator:
    Steiner, Samantha K.
    Abstract:
    Studying human’s ability to estimate temporal durations could lead to a greater understanding of our cognitive abilities as well as the processes that underlie temporal estimation. It has been shown through previous research that time and number may be interconnected cognitively and that the magnitude of one may alter the...

  • Implementation Science in Teaching and Learning in Higher Education: A Mixed-Methods Study of the Utility Value Intervention in General Psychology Courses

    Creator:
    Soicher, Raechel N.
    Abstract:
    Despite the dissemination of comprehensive reviews and teacher-friendly resources describing evidence-based practices to improve student outcomes, the adoption of these practices is slow and inconsistent across instructors at colleges and universities. To help reduce this research-practice gap, I argue for the application of implementation science to teaching and learning research...

  • An Evaluation of the Search Advocate Program at Oregon State University: Identifying Strengths and Opportunities for Development

    Creator:
    DeFelice, Jessica
    Abstract:
    A commitment to diversity is now quite common in the missions of colleges and universities. One of the primary barriers to hiring a diverse faculty is the role that implicit bias, or the case of identifying flawed ideas as reliable choices systematically, plays in the search and selection process. At...

  • The Relationship between Self-Enhancing Humor, Self-Compassion, and Emotional Traits

    Creator:
    Brydone-Jack, Michael J.
    Abstract:
    This research focused on characterizing the relationship between self-enhancing humor, self-compassion, and long-term emotional traits.. It was hypothesized that self-enhancing humor would be related to self-compassion and the related subscales of mindfulness and self-kindness. In addition, it was predicted that self-enhancing humor would relate most strongly to positive emotional traits....

  • Economic evaluation of projects and policies affecting anadromous fish : a simulation approach

    Creator:
    Hastie, James D.
    Abstract:
    Anadromous fish populations in the Pacific Northwest have undergone substantial change throughout the past century. Historical periods of over-harvest and the construction of numerous dams throughout the region have contributed to declines in the runs of naturally spawning stocks. Management efforts to rebuild fish populations have focused on the restriction...

  • An inquiry into the import demand for fresh American fruit in Hong Kong

    Creator:
    Johnson, Martin A.
    Abstract:
    West Coast fruit cooperatives working together in joint-venture trading companies may well lower the prices of their fruit for export through economies of scale. However, present and future foreign demand for American fruit may constrain any economies of scale that are realized in joint-venture agreements. The major objective of this...

  • Understanding the Role of First-Level Supervisors in Shaping Implementation Climate: The Development and Examination of a Middle-Range Theoretical Model

    Creator:
    Singh, Ryan R.
    Abstract:
    Implementation climate is the most proximal organizational predictor of implementation success. First-level supervisors are in a pivotal position to influence implementation climate, as they directly oversee frontline staff who deliver evidence-based interventions (EBIs). First-level supervisors who exhibit strong leadership and utilize best practices in supervision may be able to establish...

  • Intercultural Competence and Cross-Cultural Co-Teaching: Exploring Native English-Speaker Experiences in Taiwan

    Creator:
    Pike, Jessie L.
    Abstract:
    The increasing focus on internationalization in Taiwan’s language-in-education policy has expanded the use of cross-cultural co-teaching pairs consisting of a native English-speaking teacher and a local non-native English-speaking teacher. While the model holds great potential for combining unique strengths, navigating cross-cultural communication in these co-teaching collaborations can be complex. This...

  • The Lateralization of Emotional Perception

    Creator:
    Robles, Rafael
    Abstract:
    There is consensus among researchers that some form of hemispheric lateralization exists when perceiving emotions. However, conclusions regarding the exact organization have been inconsistent with some studies supporting an overall right hemisphere lateralization and others suggesting differential lateralization for positively and negatively valenced emotions. The main objective of this study...
