ANALYSIS OF FAMILY-HEALTH-RELATED TOPICS ON WIKIPEDIA by Yanyan Wang A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Information Studies at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee August 2018 ABSTRACT ANALYSIS OF FAMILY-HEALTH-RELATED TOPICS ON WIKIPEDIA by Yanyan Wang The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2018 Under the Supervision of Professor Jin Zhang New concepts, terms, and topics always emerge; and meanings of existing terms and topics keep changing all the time. These phenomena occur more frequently on social media than on conventional media because social media allows a huge number of users to generate information online. Retrieving relevant results in different time periods of a fast-changing topic becomes one of the most difficult challenges in the information retrieval field. Among numerous topics discussed on social media, health-related topics are a major category which attracts increasing attention from the general public. This study investigated and explored the evolution patterns of family-health-related topics on Wikipedia. Three family-health-related topics (Child Maltreatment, Family Planning, and Women’s Health) were selected from the World Health Organization Website and their associated entries were retrieved on Wikipedia. Historical numeric and text data of the entries from 2010 to 2017 were collected from a Wikipedia data dump and the Wikipedia Web pages. Four periods were defined: 2010 to 2011, 2012 to 2013, 2014 to 2015, and 2016 to 2017. Coding, subject analysis, descriptive statistical analysis, inferential statistical analysis, SOM ii approach, and n-gram approach were employed to explore the internal characteristics and external popularity evolutions of the topics. The findings illustrate that the external popularities of the family-health-related topics declined from 2010 to 2017, although their content on Wikipedia kept increasing. The emerged entries had three features: specialization, summarization, and internationalization. The subjects derived from the entries became increasingly diverse during the investigated periods. Meanwhile, the developing trajectories of the subjects varied from one to another. According to the developing trajectories, the subjects were grouped into three categories: growing subject, diminishing subject, and fluctuating subject. The popularities of the topics among the Wikipedia viewers were consistent, while among the editors were not. For each topic, its popularity trend among the editors and the viewers was inconsistent. Child Maltreatment was the most popular among the three topics, Women’s Health was the second most popular, while Family Planning was the least popular among the three. The implications of this study include: (1) helping health professionals and general users get a more comprehensive understanding of the investigated topics; (2) contributing to the developments of health ontologies and consumer health vocabularies; (3) assisting Website designers in organizing online health information and helping them identify popular family- health-related topics; (4) providing a new approach for query recommendation in information retrieval systems; (5) supporting temporal information retrieval by presenting the temporal changes of family-health-related topics; and (6) providing a new combination of data collection and analysis methods for researchers. iii © Copyright by Yanyan Wang, 2018 All Rights Reserved iv TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES ..........................................................................................................................................viii LIST OF TABLES .............................................................................................................................................. x ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ................................................................................................................................xii 1.

Understanding gender stereotypes and their impact on clients Abstract Gender stereotyping has a complex and enduring history in our society, and it is an underlying factor in many issues – clients bring to counseling, including – among other things-women's and men's experience of depression (Nugent & Jones, 2005). A complicating aspect of gender stereotyping is that both males and females in our culture have been socially conditioned to fulfill many of the stereotypes imposed on them, and following stereotypical gender roles excessively can be harmful to their mental health, self- image, and interpersonal relationships (Nugent & Jones). Counselors can use gender-role analysis and other interventions to help clients gain insight into the gender role messages and stereotypes they have grown up with and challenge these messages (Corey, 2005).
  • Guideline for Determining Human Subject Research

    Guideline for Determining Human Subject Research

    General Pediatrics GUIDELINE FOR DETERMINING HUMAN SUBJECT RESEARCH According to OHSP Policy 301 Scope and Authority of the RSRB, the RSRB has the authority to determine whether a project meets the criteria for human subject research. When the RSRB office is consulted to discuss the proposed activity, or when a project is submitted for RSRB review, RSRB staff make the determination whether HHS or FDA criteria for review apply. Investigators, study teams and RSRB staff will consider the definitions provided and then follow the procedures below for confirming this determination. The Human Subjects Research Determination Form (Appendix 1) may be used as a tool, as well as the HHS Human Subject Regulations Decision Charts. Definitions Human subject: a living individual about whom an investigator (whether professional or student) conducting research (1) obtains information or biospecimens through intervention or interaction with the individual and uses, studies, or analyzes the information or biospecimens, OR (2) obtains, uses, studies, analyzes, or generates identifiable private information or identifiable biospecimens. a. Living Individual means specimens/data/information collected from living subjects. Cadavers, autopsy specimens or specimens/information from subjects now deceased does not meet the definition of human subject. b. Intervention includes both physical procedures by which data are gathered (e.g., venipuncture) and manipulations of the subject or the subject's environment that are performed for research purposes. c.

  • What Is Teen Dating Violence?

    What Is Teen Dating Violence?

    THE DYNAMICS AND CONSEQUENCES OF TEEN DATING VIOLENCE The Seriousness of Teen Dating Violence Violence in teen dating relationships is as prevalent, harmful, and dangerous as it is in adult domestic violence cases. 1 in 5 teenage girls in a relationship has reported being sexually or physically abused1 . TDV causes depression,2 eating disorders,3 and poor school performance4 in its victims 5 . TDV is the leading cause of death for African American girls ages 15-19 . Intimate partner femicide is the second leading cause of death for adolescent 6 girls of other races What is Teen Dating Violence? “Teen Dating Violence” (TDV) is the term used to describe the broad range of abusive behaviors perpetrated in relationships between teenagers aged 11-19. Like the perpetrators of adult Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), TDV perpetrators exert power and control over their victims. TDV is just as lethal as IPV, and TDV perpetrators use the same abusive behaviors to harm their victims. However, TDV differs from IPV or Domestic Violence in that adolescent perpetrators may also use different mechanisms than adults to control their victims, particularly social media. For example, technological communications and electronic evidence (such as digital photographs, emails, text messages, and communications on various social media websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Instagram) play a large role in many cases of TDV and abuse is often carried out via electronic methods. More than 1 in 3 teenagers has sent or posted sexually suggestive emails or text messages, often coerced by an intimate partner.7 For more information on the effects of technology on TDV, see the Use of Social Media in Teen Dating Violence Information Sheet.
  • Experiences of Attachment Therapy

    Experiences of Attachment Therapy

    EXPERIENCES OF ATTACHMENT THERAPY: A FOLLOW-UP STUDY OF ADOPTIVE MOTHERS by JANE SHOEMAKER WIMMER (Under the Direction of M. Elizabeth Vonk) ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to explore mothers’ experiences of attachment therapy as related to their current relationships with their adopted children. The therapy cited in this study was family-focused intervention which engaged the child and parents in resolving attachment difficulties. All of the children were adopted from the Georgia public child welfare system and had been diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder, a serious emotional disorder of childhood that is exhibited by lack of bonding of the child to parental figures. The 16 mothers interviewed in this study had participated in state-sponsored attachment therapy and were part of an evaluation of that therapy in 2003. This research study employed a descriptive qualitative design that used in-depth semi- structured interviews, artifacts, and a reflective research journal for data collection. The population was purposefully chosen, and all mothers who were part of the 2003 study participated. Three research questions guided this study: (1) What was the experience of attachment therapy for the participants? (2) How did the participants view their current relationship with their adopted child? (3) What were the participants’ perceptions of the role attachment therapy played in their current level of functioning? Data analysis guided by the constant comparative method revealed eight major findings. The experience of attachment therapy was (1) consistently supportive, (2) emotionally painful, and (3) physically safe. The mothers’ current relationships with their adopted children were (4) continuously stressful and (5) unquestionably permanent.

Andrea White The Benefits of Child-Centered Play Therapy and Filial Therapy for Preschool-Aged Children with Reactive Attachment Disorder and Their Families ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to investigate, from a theoretical perspective, the best treatment approach for preschool-aged children with Reactive Attachment Disorder. The challenges and needs of these children can be extensive, and the search for effective treatment is ongoing. Two specific questions of focus were: How are the theories behind Non-Directive Play Therapy/Child-Centered Play Therapy and Filial Therapy useful in conceptualizing the experience of therapy for a child with attachment disorder? And, how could these treatments be used to benefit children with attachment disorders and their families? The research for this paper involved a literature review of peer-reviewed articles on Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) and treatment, original sources describing Attachment Theory, Non-Directive Play Therapy and Filial Therapy, and the DSM-IV-TR and ICD-10.

Dr. Silvia Valisa Thesis Director Dr. Celia Caputi Outside Committee Member Dr. Elizabeth Coggeshall Committee Member Introduction Last year I was reading Una donna (1906) by Sibilla Aleramo, one of the most important ​ ​ works in Italian modern literature and among the very first explicitly feminist works in the Italian language. Wanting to know more about it, I looked it up on Wikipedia. Although there exists a full entry in the Italian Wikipedia (consisting of a plot summary, publishing information, and external links), the corresponding page in the English Wikipedia consisted only of a short quote derived from a book devoted to gender studies, but that did not address that specific work in great detail. As in-depth and ubiquitous as Wikipedia usually is, I had never thought a work as important as this wouldn’t have its own page. This discovery prompted the question: if this page hadn’t been translated, what else was missing? And was this true of every entry for books across languages, or more so for women writers? My work in expanding the entry for Una donna was the beginning of my exploration ​ ​ into the presence of Italian women writers in the Italian and English Wikipedias, and how it relates back to canon, Wikipedia, and gender studies.
