  • Abstracts Listed by the Project Identification Number by the Title
    Abstracts Listed by the project identification number by the title 1 Domestic Violence Myths and Neutralizing Attitudes of Society Towards Victims Molly Hartsough This research project intends to investigate the relationship between societal beliefs in domestic violence myths and neutralizing attitudes that serve to minimize the experiences of domestic violence victims. Data will be collected from a mid-size urban university in northeastern Ohio. A purposive sample of 800-1,000 graduate and undergraduate students will be representative of gender, age, racial/ethnic backgrounds, and majors of the student population. The Domestic Violence myths utilized in this study are those previously defined by other researchers, notably Peters (2003), Westbrook (2009), and Policastro et. al. (2013). Neutralizing attitudes are to be defined as actions performed or refused to be performed by members of society towards domestic violence victims (Scott 2007). Examples may include actions such as refusing to call 911 for victims of repeated abuse episodes, not taking a victim’s admittance of being abused seriously, refusal to testify in court on behalf of a victim. The proposed research will test hypotheses of a positive relationship between beliefs in the domestic violence myths and neutralizing attitudes, and if gender, race/ethnicity and student major may influence their beliefs in the domestic violence myths and neutralizing attitudes. If supported, the research findings will have profound real world implications, especially for those students pursuing specific majors and careers related to victim services, such as criminal justice, social work, psychology, and pre-med majors. 2 Capital Punishment Monica Woolensack & Haley Lapcevich We are going to compare states with and without the death penalty.

Sharkey Advisor: Linsey Abrams May 1, 2012 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Fine Arts of the City College of the City University of New York. 2 Preface “Beyond the Balloon” and Other Stories is a collection of writing that explores family interaction around themes of disability and illness, race, and marital status. This body of work presents realistic characters who are navigating ordinary lives that present unexpected challenges. “Beyond the Balloon” is the first seven chapters of a novel that explores the family and community of a boy with autism. It highlights the communication deficits that exist within autism as well as the wider world around it. A couple, already existing within a troubled marriage, must confront their son’s atypical behavior. The remaining collection of stories include a coming-of-age story of two young adolescents who share most intimacies but cannot share a racist incident in the same way; a story of a father and son exploring what is left of their lives after a difficult divorce; an adolescent boy confronted with the death of his infant sister at the hands of his fanatically anti-medical establishment parents; a woman in her thirties who thinks she has decided she doesn’t want to have children but is now confronted with two close friends who are pregnant; and, a story of a family with two divergent sons, one who grows away to independence and another who continues to live as an adult child with his aging mother.
