I am analyzing what motivates people to protest against abortion. I am pitting three common explanations of pro-choice protest participation against each other in a survey experiment: (1) those focused on religiosity; (2) those focused on the role of hierarchical pressures; and, (3) those focused on norms developed within groups.

Purpose: to establish a Registry of pediatric patients treated with proton radiation therapy. Participants: Patients who are less than or equal to 21 years old at time of treatment start and treated with radiation therapy at one of the participating centers. Procedures (methods): This Proton and Photon Consortium Registry (PPCR) enrolls children treated with radiation therapy to form an expansive description of the pediatric population that receives protons and to better catalogue the benefits of protons, in this cohort. The data will also be used to evaluate practice differences and help facilitate collaborative research across the various radiation centers. The PPCR collects an expanded set of demographic and clinical data that will enhance the practice data that many participating radiation centers already collect in their routine operations. The PPCR has been expanded to include a photon-treated control group, helping to facilitate comparative effectiveness analysis.

This study will evaluate the impact of standing orders support for the whole primary care team on HPV vaccine communication and uptake.

The purposes of the study are to determine the number of types of challenges reported to an online referral system for issues pharmacy preceptors/teacher encounter with pharmacy students during their training in practice environments and to determine the outcomes of interventions and resources needed. Another purpose is to determine which types of these issues pharmacy preceptors feel comfortable managing with or without additional support from the school or with additional training. This will help streamline resources and provide training needed.

The expected outcome of this proposal is a novel care pathway delivered by pharmacists to improve side effects during oral chemotherapy for patients, a known barrier to adherence, and ultimately to prevent progression and early mortality. Our long-term goal for P3OC is to develop and test new dashboard features to optimize pharmacy care and meet future needs for value-based payment models

The purpose of this research project is to better understand the experiences of those who have participated in Project PROMISE and the Rural Health Initiative, and how these experiences have impacted the career and education trajectory of these students.

Studies have highlighted that Black youth report greater discrimination experiences and that these experiences adversely impact their psychological well-being. With that said, Black parents may utilize a range of parenting practices to foster positive identity development and well-being as well as provide strategies for negotiating racialized contexts. Though studies are often focused on mothers, few studies have captured fathers' accounts of their parenting practices. This investigation examines socialization practices and strategies among Black fathers and mothers.

This study is to see if a special type of ultrasound can detect fluid in lungs, with the ultimate goal that maybe this ultrasound technique can be used in the future to help patients with heart failure.

The purpose of this project is to understand the experiences and perspectives of African American/Black women, including bi- and multi-racial Black women, working in state and local governments in North Carolina. As more state and local government organizations strive to increase diversity and become more equitable, it is important to understand the particular experiences of Black women public administrators.

To develop a long-term longitudinal surgical cohort to define the natural history of inflammatory bowel disease in the 21st century
