My first study will examine whether corporate tokenistic solidarity would yield a more significant change in work outcomes for Black employees versus White employees. Participants will participate in an experiment to respond to two hypothetical situations about an organization's response to a mega-threat, specifically a police killing of a Black American. I chose to use vignette experiments because they are especially suitable for collecting data on behavior that is hard to observe firsthand. The participants will be hypothetical employees at the described organizations in the vignette experiments. The first vignette experiment will be an organization responding with authentic brand activism, and the second will be about an organization responding with inauthentic brand activism. If participants negatively respond to inauthentic activism, we should observe decreased organizational identity, citizenship behavior, and social behavior. Additionally, if my first set of hypotheses is correct, then the changes in work behavior should be more considerable in
We want to learn about how teachers perceive preschool children and how these perceptions are linked to the preschool environment. Our overall goal is to learn about how to best support children in their classrooms.
The purpose of this study is to: 1) Examine the benefit of provider directed active rehabilitation therapies ("Active Rehab") to supplement the progressive return to activity therapies in accelerating return to duty and improving cognitive and functional limitations following mTBI, and 2) operationalize and disseminate a clinical active rehabilitation algorithm for use in military settings
The purpose of the study is to assess the extent to which rural populations and rural stakeholders are involved in cancer control plans across the country. Comprehensive Cancer Control (CCC) plans identify how an organization or coalition addresses the burden of cancer in its geographic area. Plans are specific to each state and based on data collected from residents. Plans are created with federal guidance and generally take the form of a blueprint for action.
The purpose of this research study is to examine whether our test for leaky gut can be used in a larger study. Leaky gut is a condition where the lining of the intestines may weaken. This may contribute to some health problems. We also want to see if we should make changes to the test to make it more useful for a larger study. This information will then be used in a larger study to learn if there is a relationship between osteoarthritis and leaky gut.
Long-term complications that may be related to chemotherapy in preparation for transplantation, bone marrow transplant, or autologous gene therapy in sickle cell patients are unknown. The purpose of this study is to answer questions about the long-term impact of having a bone marrow transplant or autologous gene therapy to treat sickle cell disease and to compare the health outcomes to individuals who have sickle cell disease but have never had a bone marrow transplant or autologous gene therapy. The study also want to compare health outcomes of those who have received a bone marrow transplant or autologous gene therapy to a healthy sibling if they had a non-related donor or autologous gene therapy. The study will also compare health to that of donor siblings.
This project brings together labor organizers across sectors to discuss practices, strategies, challenges, and concerns in using digital technologies for base-building, political education, and organizational infrastructure.
To evaluate surgeon's use and comfort with video visits for surgical clinics.
The purpose of this study is to show that the Modified Percent Depth (MPD) (a way to calculate the severity of a pectus deformity) can be used in many different clinical settings and can reliably determine the severity of pectus excavatum.
The purpose of this research study is to collect and store blood samples from patients with heart disease at UNC-Chapel Hill for use in future research. Investigators will use these blood samples to identify new ways to measure substances made by our bodies that may help predict risk for developing heart disease or response to certain medications.
