An Analysis of Collegiate Riders' Attitudes Towards Expectations Of THE ROLE OF PHYSICAL APPEARANCE IN EQUESTRIAN SPORTS: An analysis of collegiate riders’ attitudes towards expectations of rider costume and physique THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Patricia M. Privette, M.B.A. Graduate Program in Education and Human Ecology The Ohio State University 2012 Master’s Examination Committee: Dr. Nancy A. Rudd, Advisor Dr. Patricia A. Cunningham Dr. Sharon L. Seiling Copyright by Patricia M. Privette 2012 Abstract Competitive equestrian sport consists of both objectively and subjectively judged events. In subjectively judged events, there exists the possibility that rider appearance may influence the judge’s evaluation and final placement or ranking of participants. This exploratory study examines the importance of rider appearance, which includes both rider costume and physique, in competitive equestrian sport as it is perceived by the riders. Nine female equestrians riding on their IHSA (Intercollegiate Horse Show Association) collegiate equestrian teams were interviewed for this study. The participants, a mix of both western and hunt seat riders, described aspects of their appearance for horse shows, which included show clothing, facial cosmetics and hairstyles. Elements of the social physique anxiety scale were incorporated into the interview instrument to identify whether the riders experienced social physique anxiety as a result of judges’ and coaches’ expectations of their appearance. Although social physique anxiety has been examined in athletes in a variety of sports, it has not to date been studied in the equestrian population. The riders uniformly identified their perceptions of the preferred body type for equitation classes (tall and thin), but not all of the riders experienced social ii physique anxiety as a result of comparing their bodies with this standard. The riders also discussed whether they perceived a double standard toward male and female riders with respect to their show ring appearance. The western riders did perceive a difference between male and female riders, but the hunt seat riders did not. Riders also identified other non-body image related aspects of collegiate riding that they liked and disliked. Positive aspects mentioned by the riders included the camaraderie and support system provided by teammates and the coaches, the challenge of riding unfamiliar horses in competition and how riding served as a break (i.e., stress reliever) from their daily academic life. Negative aspects mentioned by the riders included the challenge of riding unfamiliar horses in competition, the expense and the amount of time it required in their busy schedules. The results of this exploratory study indicate that additional research related to body image is needed for equestrians. Areas of additional focus may include more quantitative measures of body image in equestrians, and the expansion of the scope to include male and female equestrians in additional collegiate riding formats. iii Acknowledgments I want to thank everyone who assisted and guided me through this lengthy process, which included more than its share of stops, starts and detours. I can’t thank my advisor, Dr. Rudd, enough for her gentle guidance and persistence. I also thank Ashley and Meghan for their reviews of the preliminary interview questionnaire and their valuable input, Anne for her detailed reading and analysis of the rider transcripts, Drs. Cunningham and Seiling for their critical readings of this thesis and their comments, and most importantly, the nine riders who graciously found time in their busy schedules to share their collegiate riding experiences with me. I also owe a special thank you to my husband and daughter. Thank you all! iv Vita May 1981 ................................................

  • A Retrospective Case-Control Study to Investigate Horse and Jockey Level Risk Factors Associated with Horse Falls in Irish Point-To-Point Races L
    A retrospective case-control study to investigate horse and jockey level risk factors associated with horse falls in Irish Point-to-Point races L. J. Smith, G. Tabor and J. Williams Abstract Horse racing as a high-risk sport can pose a significant risk to equine welfare. To date there have been limited epidemiological reviews of fall risk specific to point-to-point racing. This study aimed to identify horse and jockey level risk factors associated with horse falls and to compare these to published findings for Hurdle and Steeplechase racing. The study used a retrospective matched case-control design. Relevant variables were identified and information was collated for all races in the 2013/14 and 2014/15 seasons. Cases and controls were matched with a 1:3 ratio. Controls (n=2,547) were selected at random from all horses that completed in the same race (n=849). Horse and jockey level variables were analysed through univariable analysis to inform multivariable model building. A final matched case- control multivariable logistic regression model was refined, using fall/no fall as the dependent variable, through a backward stepwise process. Horse age was associated with an increased risk of horse falls. For every 1 unit increase in age there was a 1.2 times increased risk of falling. The overall number of races ran within 12 months was associated with a decreased risk of falling. The jockeys previous seasons percentage wins was associated with the risk of horse falls with jockeys who had 0-4% wins and 5-9% wins having an increase in risk compared to those who had over 20% wins/runs.

    INVESTIGATING THE REASONS WOMEN WEAR CHOKER NECKLACES by HEATHER ANN WILLIQUETTE B.A., University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, 2015 A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Colorado Colorado Springs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Psychology 2019 ii This thesis for the Master of Arts degree by Heather Ann Williquette has been approved for the Department of Psychology by Laith Al-Shawaf, Chair Michael A. Kisley Michelle J. Escasa-Dorne Date 7-31-2019 iii Williquette, Heather Ann (M.A., Psychology) Investigating the Reasons Women Wear Choker Necklaces Thesis directed by Assistant Professor Laith Al-Shawaf ABSTRACT Choker necklaces have been around for centuries, carrying with them different cultural and societal connotations. However, little to no research investigates the reasons why women continue to wear choker necklaces today. Three studies were conducted in an attempt to explain why women may choose to wear choker necklaces. The first study (N = 204) examined women’s self-reports pertaining to her physical appearance and behaviors, and men’s perceptions of a woman in a photo on various measures. For the photo evaluations, we manipulated three different photos of three different women to create two conditions of a woman either wearing a choker or not wearing a choker. Men were randomly assigned to one of these conditions and were asked to evaluate the photograph. Findings reveal that women who self-reported wearing chokers more frequently had higher sociosexual orientations than women who self-reported wearing chokers less frequently, and men perceived the woman in the Choker condition to have a higher sociosexual orientation than the woman in the Nonchoker condition.

  • CHAINSAW SAFETY: Always Use Your Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
    CHAINSAW SAFETY: Always Use Your Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Ellen Bauske, Wade Hutcheson, and Rolando Orellana Operating a chainsaw is inherently dangerous. The chain moves at 55-60 miles per hour, or about 88 feet per second. The teeth on the chain are designed not to cut but to remove material. Accidental contact with chainsaws often results in serious injuries to operators. Cuts are not the only hazard a saw user must avoid. Saw operators are often struck by falling limbs and trunks as the tree moves and shifts while it’s cut. Operators fall off ladders and out of trees, or they trip as they move through brush over uneven ground. Even when the tree is on the ground, danger lurks in wood under tension. Spring poles snap and logs roll unexpectedly. A chainsaw operator has three lines of defense: education, good technique, and personal protective equipment (PPE). When the first two fail, PPE can save your life. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that saw operators wear head protection, eye protection, hearing protection, chainsaw chaps or pants, and suitable footwear. HEAD PROTECTION A protective hard hat should be worn whenever you are working in an area where it’s possible that falling objects could cause injury to the head. For tree fellers, that means a hard hat should be worn immediately upon exiting the truck. Branches fall, saws spit objects out of trees, and climbers drop things. Saw operators are often hit on the side and top of the head and would benefit from a helmet with side protection and a chin strap.
