Specifically, my research examines how risk and protective factors at multiple ecological levels, including family, peer, school, and community, interact to predict children’s developmental outcomes. This basic research forms the basis for the development of effective family and school-based prevention programs aimed at promoting healthy development. Once a prevention program has been proven effective, the ultimate goal is widespread dissemination and scale-up, and therefore my research also focuses on the identification and examination of the program, organizational, and community barriers which hinder the successful delivery of preventive interventions under natural conditions. The common thread that connects these areas of research is my aim to produce theory-driven research knowledge with clearly identified applications in the practice and policy of real-world prevention. 1 | Page Brittany Rhoades Cooper, Ph.D. HONORS & AWARDS 2014 Prevention Science Most Frequency Cited Article Since 2013 The article I co-authored, "Latent Class Analysis: An Alternative Perspective on Subgroup Analysis in Prevention and Treatment," was named by Thomson Reuters as the most frequently cited article in Prevention Science during 2013 and 2014. 2008-2009 Kligman Graduate Fellowship Competitive award providing support for tuition and a stipend for dissertation research. 2005-2007 National Institute of Drug Abuse Prevention & Methodology Pre-Doctoral Fellow External traineeship for research integrating prevention science and methodology. 1999-2000 University of Arizona Mentor Program in Research Education Award $1000 grant to conduct original research on risk behaviors of college students.

As television must always create its spaces and places on the screen, what, then, is the significance of the varying emphases as well as the commonalities constructed in televisual high school settings in UK, US, and Japanese television shows? This master’s thesis considers how fictional televisual high schools both contest and construct national identity. In order to do this, it posits the existence of the televisual school story, a descendant of the literary school story. It then compares the formal and narrative ways in which Glee (2009-2015), Hex (2004-2005), and Ouran koukou hosutobu (2006) deploy space and place to create identity on the screen. In particular, it examines how heteronormativity and gender roles affect the abilities of characters to move through spaces, across boundaries, and gain secure places of their own. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ii Table of Contents iii Acknowledgement v Introduction Orientation 1 Space and Place in Schools 5 Schools on TV 11 Schools on TV from Japan, 12 the U.S., and the U.K.

  • Easy Access Rules for Medical Requirements
    Easy Access Rules for Medical Requirements EASA eRules: aviation rules for the 21st century Rules and regulations are the core of the European Union civil aviation system. The aim of the EASA eRules project is to make them accessible in an efficient and reliable way to stakeholders. EASA eRules will be a comprehensive, single system for the drafting, sharing and storing of rules. It will be the single source for all aviation safety rules applicable to European airspace users. It will offer easy (online) access to all rules and regulations as well as new and innovative applications such as rulemaking process automation, stakeholder consultation, cross-referencing, and comparison with ICAO and third countries’ standards. To achieve these ambitious objectives, the EASA eRules project is structured in ten modules to cover all aviation rules and innovative functionalities. The EASA eRules system is developed and implemented in close cooperation with Member States and aviation industry to ensure that all its capabilities are relevant and effective.

  • Evaluation of Medicaid Medical Homes for Pregnant Women in Southeast Wisconsin
    Evaluation of Medicaid Medical Homes for Pregnant Women in Southeast Wisconsin Final Report Submitted to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services Revised March 2016 Donna Friedsam, MPH, Researcher and Project Manager Lindsey Leininger, PhD, Principal Investigator Kristen Voskuil, MA, Associate Researcher UW Population Health Institute DHS Medicaid OB Medical Home Evaluation Executive Summary This study evaluates a pilot program, launched by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) in January 2011, which enrolls high-risk pregnant women in Southeast Wisconsin into a medical home model. The intervention is characterized by more intensive service than standard prenatal care, including comprehensive assessments, care coordination, home visiting, and other non-clinical supports. Clinics agreeing to serve as medical homes and participate in the pilot initiative receive additional payments (above the Medicaid payments for prenatal care and delivery) as well as a bonus payment for positive birth outcomes as defined by DHS. Research Goal: To determine if the medical home model is effective in improving birth outcomes among BadgerCare Plus (Medicaid)-enrolled high-risk women in Southeast Wisconsin. Objectives/Specific Aims 1. Measure participating clinics against: a) their individual benchmark measures for the process of prenatal and postpartum care, b) fidelity of implementing the contractual parameters and other attributes of the medical home pilots, and c) how the clinic intervention differs from pre-program standard care. 2.

Kurt Hummel’s Language Features in Glee Television Series Season 1: A Sociolinguistic Analysis. Yogyakarta: English Language Education Study Program, Sanata Dharma University. The use of language by individuals is influenced by many factors. Gender is one factor that influences the use of language. In this research, gender is seen to be different from sex. It is seen as a social construction rather than as a fixed category. As a result, women and men do not stick to one language style but change it based on their social context. Therefore, the researcher was interested in analyzing the women’s language used by a feminine man named Kurt Hummel in Glee Television Series Season 1. In conducting the research, a research question was formulated: What women’s language features does Kurt Hummel use in his speech in Glee Television Series Season 1? The research was qualitative research in which discourse analysis was employed to analyze the data.

Glee and Flash Mobs 1 Glee, Flash Mobs, and the Creation of Heightened Realities In May of 2009 the television series Glee (Fox, 2009-2015) made its debut on the Fox network, in the coveted post-American Idol (2002-present) timeslot. Glee was already facing an uphill battle due to its musical theatre genre; the few attempts at a musical television series in the medium’s history, Cop Rock (ABC, 1990) and Viva Laughlin (CBS, 2007) among them, had been overall failures. Yet Glee managed to defeat the odds, earning high ratings in its first two seasons and lasting a total of six. Critics early on attributed Glee’s success to the popularity of the Disney Channel’s television movie High School Musical (2006) and its subsequent sequels, concerts and soundtracks. That alone cannot account for the long-term sensation that Glee became, when one acknowledges that High School Musical was a stand-alone movie (sequels notwithstanding).

The class consists of twenty-two students with each class period being fifty minutes long. This unit will revolve around their daily lives but specifically, how they see themselves and those around them. The theme of the unit is “Going Against the Grain” which pertains to not sticking to stereotypes and how others may view them. I would like to introduce this unit during the third nine weeks, after they come from the winter break. Students are about to go into this new place, high school. Students are probably nervous about going there and may go through some difficulties to try and keep their own identity. Students will be able to connect real life situations to these different literatures. The theme of identity and defining the norm is throughout their daily lives and in pop culture. How we define ourselves can also contribute to how others define us. The theme of self-definition is all over, especially in middle and high schools.
