Item Antecedents and outcomes of work-linked couple incivility(2014) Jones, Morgan Dakota; Sliter, Michael; Devine, Denis John; Williams, Jane R.Workplace incivility has been shown to have negative organizational and individual effects on people who experience this low-intensity deviant behavior. Research has recently begun to look at incivility as a form of modern discrimination that may be used to target out-groups within organizations, where out-groups are broadly defined. The first goal of the current study was to examine the impact of incivility on work-linked couples. Second, the present study sought to determine the effect that experiences of WLC incivility had on individual and organizational outcomes: burnout, job satisfaction, and turnover intentions. Finally, although the outcomes of incivility have been well-established, the antecedents of this phenomenon have been examined considerably less. Therefore, the present study sought to examine and explain the relationship between a climate for formality, gender, and WLC incivility. To accomplish these goals a snowball sampling method was used to recruit a total of 86 participants for an online survey. Hierarchal regression and bootstrapping mediation were used to analyze the data. Results showed that WLC incivility was predictive of burnout, job dissatisfaction, and turnover intentions. Furthermore, both burnout and job satisfaction were shown to mediate the relationship between WLC incivility and turnover intentions. The theoretical and practical implications of these results are discussed as well as potential areas for future research.Item As professional sports come back, members of the US women’s soccer team are still paid less than the men’s(The Conversation US, Inc., 2020-06-29) Magid, Julie Manning; Kelley School of BusinessItem COVID-19 and the Conundrum of Mask Requirements(Washington and Lee University School of Law, 2020-05-28) Gatter, Robert; Mohapatra, Seema; Robert H. McKinney School of LawAs states begin to loosen their COVID-19 restrictions, public debate is underway about what public health measures are appropriate. Many states have some form of mask-wearing orders to prevent the spread of COVID-19 infection. Public health guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization has conflicted. From a public health point of view, it is not clear what the right answer is. In the absence of directives, individuals are also making their own choices about mask use. At a time when public health measures, like shelter-in-place orders and social distancing, are being used to stop the spread of coronavirus, wearing masks can be seen as a form of solidarity and desire to not infect others. Similarly, not wearing a mask can also be a political statement of sorts. Additionally, black men wearing masks have reported being asked to leave stores and fearing for their own safety. This essay provides an overview of the legal and policy landscape and focuses on the potential for policing against African Americans when mask mandates are in place. Despite the public health benefits of mask usage, due to mask mandates likely being enforced discriminatorily, we advise caution against mask mandates.Item Development and examination of the attribution questionnaire-substance use disorder (AQ-SUD) to measure public stigma towards adolescents experiencing substance use disorders(Elsevier, 2021-04) Johnson-Kwochka, Annalee; Aalsma, Matthew C.; Monahan, Patrick O.; Salyers, Michelle P.; Psychiatry, School of MedicineBACKGROUND: Public stigma may significantly impact adolescents with substance use disorders (SUDs), leading to limited treatment accessibility and utilization. However, few measures have been validated to assess public SUD stigma towards adolescents. In this study we developed the Attribution Questionnaire-Substance Use Disorder (AQ-SUD) by modifying the Attribution Questionnaire, a commonly used measure of public mental illness stigma. We examined 1) the psychometric properties of the AQ-SUD with supporting data from other stigma scales and 2) preliminary data on adults' perceptions of public stigma toward adolescents with SUDs. METHODS: Adult participants (n = 304) were randomly assigned to one of four vignettes about an adolescent with a specific SUD diagnosis (opioid, marijuana, alcohol, and stimulant use disorders). Participants completed the AQ-SUD and three other measures of public stigma designed to assess convergent and divergent validity. RESULTS: Analyses indicated that the modified AQ-SUD has good psychometric properties, and revealed a four-factor structure: negative emotions, assessment of responsibility, social disengagement, and lack of empathy. Additional public stigma scales demonstrated good psychometrics and provided evidence of both convergent and divergent validity for the AQ-SUD. Preliminary analysis of public stigma towards adolescents with a SUD suggests that attitudes about marijuana use disorder differ significantly from attitudes about other SUDs. CONCLUSIONS: This study is the first to modify and validate a measure designed to assess perceptions of public SUD stigma towards adolescents, the AQ-SUD. Preliminary analyses suggest that adults view adolescent marijuana use disorders as less severe compared to other SUDs, which may have implications for adults' motivation to support youth in seeking treatment.Item Discrimination in Employment under Title VII(Education Law Association, 2015) Nguyễn, David Hòa Khoa; Mooney Kahn, KristaThis chapter addresses the burden of proof applicable to cases of employment discrimination, as developed in litigation involving Title VII and applicable to other federal laws prohibiting discrimination in employment.Item Does your AI discriminate?(2020-05-15) Magid Manning, Julie; Kelley School of Business - IndianapolisMy research indicates that relying on data analytics to eliminate human bias in choosing leaders won’t help.Item How bigotry crushed the dreams of an all-black Little League team(The Conversation US, Inc., 2016-08-19) Lamb, Chris; Journalism and Public Relations, School of Liberal ArtsItem “I Didn't Know What to Say”: Responding to Racism, Discrimination, and Microaggressions With the OWTFD Approach(Association of American Medical Colleges, 2020-07-31) Sotto-Santiago, Sylk; Mac, Jacqueline; Duncan, Francesca; Smith, Joseph; Medicine, School of MedicineIntroduction Academic medicine has long faced the challenge of addressing health inequities, reflecting on how these contribute to structural racism, and perpetuating negative social determinants of health. Most recently, we have constructed opportunities for dialogues about racism, discrimination, and microaggressions (RDM). As such, we created a professional development program that encouraged participants to (1) openly discuss RDM and the impact they have in academia, (2) learn about tools to address and respond to RDM, and (3) move towards the creation of inclusive environments. The target audience included institutional leaders, faculty, trainees, professional staff, and health care teams. Methods We sought to meet workshop goals by integrating anti-racist dramaturgical teaching, introducing concepts knowledge, and practicing communication tools. To assess learning and evaluate our workshops, participants completed a pre- and postsurvey. Results Results showed that 30 participants were more comfortable with discussing issues related to race/ethnicity, gender identity/expression, sexual orientation, and spirituality after participating in the workshops. Prior to the two workshops, the percentage of learners who felt confident initiating conversations ranged from 29% to 54%. After the workshops, the percentage of learners who felt confident ranged from 58% to 92%. The greatest increase, 100%, was observed in the levels of confidence in initiating conversations related to race/ethnicity. Discussion Despite medical education's commitment to cultural competence and institutional mission statements that value diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice, professional development opportunities are limited. Participants strongly agreed their participation in such a workshop was relevant and important to their professional work.Item Innocent Until Proven Guilty: A Critical Interrogation of the Legal Aspects of Job Fit in Higher Education(Stylus Publishing, LLC, 2019) Nguyễn, David Hòa Khoa; Ward, LaWanda W.M.This chapter provides a foundation of employment discrimination law so that individuals who experience discrimination can determine and address the burden of proof applicable to cases of employment discrimination.Item New teachers face complex cultural challenges – the stories of 3 Latina teachers in their toughest moments(The Conversation US, Inc., 2021-05-14) Sosa, Teresa; School of Education
