The Underlying Mechanisms Linking Self-Objectification to Subjective Well-Being: Testing Two Moderated Mediation Models

Creator:: Tran, Sydney J.
Abstract:: The imposition of sexually objectifying experiences on women socializes women to engage in self-objectification, or the act of placing greater value in physical appearance than internal well-being. These two studies explored the underlying mechanisms linking self-objectification to negative subjective well-being among a group of young adult women (ages 18-26) and...

What Do Girls Learn from Dolls? Sexualized Stimuli and Girls’ Body Esteem and Academic Performance

Creator:: Lundeberg, Pamela J.
Abstract:: Although a significant amount of research has investigated the effect of sexualization on women's body esteem and cognitive performance, few researchers have examined the effect of sexualization on girls. Additionally, research that has been conducted regarding girls' experiences of sexualization has primarily focused on media influences. The effect of dolls...

Gender Stereotypes in Halloween Costumes

Creator:: Searles, Samantha A. P.
Abstract:: Previous research has shown that gender stereotypes are present in advertisements and in popular culture items. We conducted a content analysis of Halloween costumes to examine the presence of gender stereotypes in the poses of the models, weapons, and costume role (e.g. hero, counter authority, mythical creature, royalty). A sample...

Why women endorse ambivalent sexism : risks of young women's enjoyment of sexualization and the protective powers of feminism

Creator:: Allemand, Haley M.
Abstract:: Hostile sexism (HS) is an antagonistic attitude towards women; benevolent sexism (BS) is a positive attitude towards women that is sexist in terms of viewing women in restricted roles. HS and BS held simultaneously is defined as ambivalent sexism (AS). Despite negative outcomes associated with AS, BS, and HS, women...

Weather and large waves along the Oregon coast: atmospheric controls on a numerical wave model

Creator:: Ellenson, Ashley N.
Abstract:: In this study, the effects of implementing different wind input or physics packages in a numerical wave model to recreate large wave conditions are explored. Three large wave events are simulated with WaveWatch III. The wind inputs which are compared are NCEP's Global Forecasting System (GFS) with 0.5 degree resolution...

Making meaning of supporting student spiritual development : perceptions of graduate students in a student affairs program

Creator:: Thomson, Amy K.
Abstract:: This interpretive, descriptive qualitative study explores how graduate students in a student affairs preparation program make meaning of their role in supporting student spiritual development. Six one-on-one semi-structured interviews with six graduate students were conducted in this single-site study. Five prevalent themes emerged from the data, each playing a role...

Breaking Waves Offshore: Measurements and Modeling of Energy Dissipation

Creator:: Ticona Rollano, Fadia M.
Abstract:: In the presence of strong winds, ocean surface waves dissipate significant amounts of energy by breaking. Here, breaking rates and wave-following turbulent dissipation rate measurements are compared with numerical WAVEWATCH III estimates of bulk energy dissipation. At high winds, the measurements suggest that turbulent dissipation becomes saturated, however the modeled...

The Oregon Nearshore Research Inventory Project : the importance of science and the scientific research community in marine spatial planning

Creator:: Sherman, Kate
Abstract:: The purpose of Oregon's Nearshore Research Inventory (NRI) project was to inventory and map the current and future use of Oregon's nearshore environment by the scientific research community for use in Oregon's marine spatial planning process. Spatial and qualitative data on the use of Oregon's ocean and coast by the...

Spatial analysis of soil depth variability and pedogenesis along toposequences in the Troodos Mountains, Cyprus

Creator:: Robins, Colin R.
Abstract:: In unstable landscapes, modern pedological research explores the role of soils as products and indicators of geomorphologic change. Understanding the dynamics of hill slope pedogenesis is especially important in regions with limited, poor, or threatened soil resources. The island of Cyprus, situated in the eastern Mediterranean, is claimed by many...

Women's experiences of breastfeeding in an out-of-hospital birthing community

Creator:: Marshall, Lindsay J.
Abstract:: In this thesis, I examine the experiences of breastfeeding mothers who chose to give birth with Certified Professional Midwives at a free-standing birth center, and the factors that influence their known high rates of breastfeeding initiation and duration. Using grounded theory and data collected from participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and...
