An Examination of the Caught being Good Game in a High School Special Education SettingMorton, Reeva Christine 10 August 2018 (has links)
The purpose of the current study is to examine the effects of the Caught Being Good Game (CBGG) on students’ classroom behaviors. The CBGG is a positive variation of the Good Behavior Game, which has been identified as an evidenced-based intervention designed for managing classroom behavior across students, behaviors, and settings. In the current study, the effectiveness of the CBGG intervention was examined within 2 high school special education classrooms located at two school districts in rural southeastern United States. Using a multiple baseline design, the data were analyzed using visual inspection and calculation of non-overlapping data. Results revealed that the percentage of intervals in which on-task behavior occurred increased during the implementation of the CBGG game, while the students’ level of off-task behavior decreased. Acceptability of the intervention of both teachers was favorable. Given the results, the implications of this classroom management tool are positive. Future directions are discussed and the literature base regarding the CBGG was expanded.

Attachment Style, Self-Esteem, and Perceived Peer Norms as Predictors of Sexually Risky Behavior among 17-24 Year Old College StudentsEaves, Susan Harris 05 May 2007 (has links)
Unhealthy sexual behavior continues to increase among the college student population despite education regarding its risks and consequences. Counselors are continually being faced with consumers reeling from such consequences. Because prior research has indicated statistically significant relationships between attachment style and sexual behavior, self-worth and sexual behavior, and peer norms and sexual behavior, this study examined the explanatory and predictive value of each of these variables when analyzed simultaneously. Specifically, the age at first intercourse, number of sexual intercourse partners, number of oral sex partners, frequency of cheating behaviors, and number of one-night stands were assessed across 855 students attending a medium sized university located in the southeastern part of the United States Packets were administered to each participating student containing an informed consent letter, a questionnaire regarding peer group (Ratliff-Crain, Donald, & Dalton, 1999), a demographics questionnaire, a questionnaire regarding sexual behavior, drawn from the National Health and Social Life Survey (NHSLS) (Laumann, Gagnon, Michael, & Michaels, 2000), The Relationship Questionnaire (Bartholomew & Horowitz, 1991), and The Contingencies of Self-Worth Scale (Crocker, Luhtanen, Cooper, & Bouvrette, 2003). Resulting data were analyzed using Multiple Regression and Logistic Regression analyses. Findings show that while self-worth domains of academics and approval are not significantly related to sexual behavior, it would appear that the sexually risky individual is likely to perceive his/her peers as sexually risky, to lack self-worth based on virtue, to instead have self-worth based on competition, and to endorse a dismissing attachment style. Further, demographic factors were also included in the analyses including participant age, race, gender, church attendance, religious affiliation, relationship status, and parents? marital status. Of these variables used as controls, race seemed to have the strongest influence on sexual behavior, with participants who were black showing the riskiest sexual behaviors.

Full scale instrumented testing and analysis of matting systems for airfield parking ramps and taxiwaysGartrell, Chad A 15 December 2007 (has links)
The U.S. military requires the ability to rapidly deploy troops, equipment, and materials anywhere in the world. Recent operations have brought attention to the need to utilize austere, unsurfaced, and sometimes sub-standard airfields within a theater of interest. These airfields may require additional taxiways and aprons. One option for the rapid construction of such is airfield matting systems. The focus of the work for this thesis was commercially available airfield matting systems to support large military transport aircraft, such as the C 17. Several test sections with differing strength soils were built with chosen mats tested in an elimination method, using a load cart that simulates contingency loading of one main gear of the C 17. Matting systems were evaluated based on logistical and assembly requirements, and deformation and damage sustained during traffic. A modeling effort was performed to investigate the potential of a simple model to predict the response of these matting systems under full-scale testing.
