ACC Student-Athlete Transition

There exists limited empirical evidence to inform the structure and content of the current NCAA exit interviews which restricts their impact on post-career health and well-being. This study hopes to bridge that gap and to understand the student-athlete transition experience including outcomes of mental, physical, social, and occupational functioning. In this aim, we are inviting you to participate in an evidence-based, survey addendum to the standard of care exit interview. A total of 120 individuals will be invited to participate in this portion of the study. A subgroup of 30 participants will be invited to participate in a follow-up interview. If you are selected for follow-up, we will reach out to you in no more than 60 days after the completion of this survey.

Artificial Intelligence and Mental Health

This study explores how college students feel and think about using artificial intelligence (AI) to help with mental health. We want to see if students studying science and technology (STEM) feel differently about AI than students in other areas. We're studying this because AI is being used more and more to solve both work and personal problems. However, using AI in mental health is still new and has not been talked about much.

Understanding Parents' Motivations for Enrolling Children in African-Centered Education Early Learning Programs

The significance of this project is to go beyond the discourse of culturally responsive practices in early childhood education and attend to the cultural and holistic needs of children and families by providing in-depth knowledge about what it means to be in ACE schools for Black families and their children. Coupled with the fact that much of the extant research on ACE has been on students in the upper grades and there has been little attention to parents' motivation for choosing ACE preschool programs, this proposed project has implications both for addressing inequities in early care and education access and experiences for Black children but also identifying a culturally-rooted approach to meeting the racial, cultural, and developmental needs of Black diasporic children in the U.S. during a critical time of development. This insight from Black families can create, cultivate, and expand such programs and practices across the country.

Using gamification for simulators

The aim of this study is to increase awareness and use of the haptics simulation lab at a research medical university using gamification. When the University of North Carolina Adams School of Dentistry first purchased dental case simulators (Simodont), they purchased two and put them in a room disassociated with the preclinical lab resulting in very little use of the simulators. In August of 2024, eight more simulators were purchase and all ten were moved to the preclinical lab. Orientations to the simulators were in the form of eModules on Canvas and face-to-face hands-on training. Faculty members desiring to use them in their courses met with the Simodont administrator to edit cases that came with the simulators. Currently first and second year dental students are using the simulated cases in their preclinical courses with the third and fourth year students already in the clinic attending to
