Nash Michael J. Ash (Chair of Committee) (Member) Joyce E. Juntune G. Patrick Slattery, Jr. (Member) (Member) Michael R. Benz (Head of Department) May 2005 Major Subject: Educational Psychology iii ABSTRACT “I Used To Be Gifted:” Case Studies of Lost Potential Among Adolescent Females. (May 2005) Virginia Maurer McDonnell B.S., Iowa State University; M.S., Iowa State University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. William Nash This case study focuses on the influence of certain sociocultural factors on the ability of adolescent girls to fulfill their potentials. Specifically, the purpose of this research is to advance an alternative perspective on the relationship between the sociocultural influences of friendship, mother/daughter relationship, school experience, and body image and a loss of potential among adolescent girls from a historical, poststructural, postmodern-feminist perspective. The dissertation is presented in the form of narrative from both the author’s and girls’ and women’s perspectives in order to seek a rich and thick description. Throughout the study, the author integrates moments from her own journey during adolescence with the young girls and their mothers or grandmothers encountering the oftentimes overwhelming negative sociocultural challenges existing today.

  • Reflecting on Gender As a Social Construct: a Qualitative Case Study of a Girls' Critical Gender Group
    Running head: REFLECTING ON GENDER AS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT REFLECTING ON GENDER AS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT: A QUALITATIVE CASE STUDY OF A GIRLS’ CRITICAL GENDER GROUP By JESSICA LYN GALIPEAU A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education Graduate Program in Education, Culture and Society Approved by ___________________________________ Dr. Sharon Ryan _____________________ ______________ Dr. Thea Abu El-Haj ____________ _______________________ Dr. Carol Fishbone New Brunswick, New Jersey May, 2014 REFLECTING ON GENDER AS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT © 2014 Jessica Lyn Galipeau ALL RIGHTS RESERVED REFLECTING ON GENDER AS A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT Abstract Adolescence is a particularly vulnerable period for girls because they are more likely than boys to lose confidence in math and science, report higher rates of body dissatisfaction, and experience an overall loss of voice. As a middle school teacher I watch too many of my female students become riddled with doubt and insecurity. The purpose of this qualitative case study was to use an after school girls’ group as a venue to study what happens when girls examine and talk about gender messages. Three research questions guided this study: What is the Girls’ Group curriculum? How do girls talk about gender in the critical gender group? What do girls say they learned from participating in the group? Thirteen adolescent girls from my school were purposefully sampled to participate in this study. In keeping with a case study design, I collected multiple sources of data including observations, students’ reflective journals and focus groups to build a descriptive portrait of what took place in Girls’ Group.

  • Youth Activity Guide 2016.Pdf
    INTRODUCTION The purpose of this Activity Guide is to increase comfort and flexibility for advocates working with child survivors of sexual assault and for prevention programs for young children. This guide is not intended to be an exhaustive list of activities or curricula, but rather a starting point to increase capacity to best work with children. The target age group of this Guide is 5- 12 years old. For support with other age groups please contact us. Every agency needs to be able to provide adequate direct services to all survivors, including minors. This guide will provide different ways an advocate can work with a child client directly in a developmentally appropriate and beneficial way. Some of the included activities are designed to be flexible and may be used directly with child clients or incorporated in a comprehensive prevention strategy with children. Other activities may be only suited for advocacy or prevention purposes. You will find information about the appropriate setting, needed materials, audience considerations, and instructions for each of the activities in this guide. Activities in this guide are organized by key learning objectives. These were informed by best practice research in child development, and sexual assault advocacy and prevention. Before utilizing the activities in the guide with child clients or children in your prevention program, we suggest reviewing the next section of this guide that presents an overview of the philosophies and best practices of both child advocacy and primary prevention. Additionally, at the end of this guide there are several related national resources on child development, childhood sexual development, risk and protective factors of sexual violence, and core concepts of prevention.

  • Pleasant Company's American Girls Collection
    PLEASANT COMPANY’S AMERICAN GIRLS COLLECTION: THE CORPORATE CONSTRUCTION OF GIRLHOOD by NANCY DUFFEY STORY (Under the direction of JOEL TAXEL) ABSTRACT This study examines the modes of femininity constructed by the texts of Pleasant Company’s The American Girls Collection in an effort to disclose their discursive power to perpetuate ideological messages about what it means to be a girl in America. A feminist, post structual approach, informed by neo-Marxist insights, is employed to analyze the interplay of gender, class, and race, as well as the complex dynamics of the creation, marketing, publication and distribution of the multiple texts of Pleasant Company, with particular emphasis given to the historical fiction books that accompany the doll-characters. The study finds that the selected texts of the The American Girls Collection position subjects in ways that may serve to reinforce rather than challenge traditional gender behaviors and privilege certain social values and social groups. The complex network of texts positions girls as consumers whose consumption practices may shape identity. The dangerous implications of educational books, written, at least in part, as advertisements for products, is noted along with recommendations that parents and teachers assist girl-readers in engaging in critical inquiry with regard to popular culture texts.
