Coastal Sharks and Interactions with Humans

This study relies on the knowledge of recreational shark fishers and SCUBA divers in North Carolina to further understand coastal shark ecology and to learn about fishing effort and diver observation effort. This research will help further our understanding on the abundance and distribution of data-limited coastal sharks. In addition, we believe this will help increase our understanding of the North Carolina recreational shark fishery.

Understanding the Potential of Youth Participatory Action Research to Improve African American Youth Mental Health Outcomes

This study is an in-depth, qualitative research study with a longitudinal design that will assess if and how post-traumatic growth and radical healing are experienced among Black/African American youth (ages 13-18) exposed to racial trauma who participate in a YPAR intervention. Our longitudinal qualitative design, with quantitative integrated only for qualitative comparison by group purposes, allows us to explore shared patterns and differences across youth-serving contexts without neglecting person-level factors (i.e., racial identity and racism-related stress) that may impact the experience of post-traumatic growth and radical healing among Black/African American youth exposed to racial trauma. Our approach is grounded in the involvement and perspectives of youth and adult supporters in our respective communities.
