Accounting for the Influence of American Individualism on Public Health Practice: Lessons from COVID-19 in the United States

This study seeks to understand how public health leaders and more fully take into account the influence of American Individualism on public health practice. The values and ethics of public health as a discipline is at odds with the powerful and prominent cultural narrative of American Individualism. This misalignment is weakens the population level aim of public health and prioritizes individual freedom and ideas above the needs of the whole public. But American Individualism is normalized and permanent part of how Americans understand the world. Public health leaders must better engage, communicate, and act within the context of American Individualism, even though it does not align with there approach to health and health improvement.

Black Hole Concept Inventory for University level Introductory Astronomy Students

Students' preconceptions about Black Holes (BHs) have yet to be rigorously documented in an academic capacity, and as such there is currently no universal resource available to inform instructors as to how to best lead instruction on BH's and BH related topics. We hope to create a BH concept survey in order to collect data concerning student preconceptions about BHs and Relativity. This data will be analyzed to determine what topics are most important to address in University level Intro Astronomy courses. This will allow for construction of a BH/Relativity lesson plan that could then be applied at multiple Universities.

Entrepreneurship in Guatemala

Prior research emphasizes that opportunities are a "foundational element in entrepreneurship," including their "identification evaluation, and implementation." (Foo, et al. 2020; Shane & Venkataraman, 2000). Entrepreneurial opportunities are those "opportunities to bring into existence new goods, services, raw materials, and organizing methods that allow outputs to be sold at more than their cost of production." (Shane & Venkataraman, 2000). The opportunity recognition and exploitation process is critical for venture growth and success, as it is the means by which entrepreneurs differentiate themselves from competitors and earn a sustainable profit. Yet "[m]uch is left unanswered on the opportunity recognition process in emerging regions." (Foo, et al. 2020). While researchers have developed theoretical propositions as to how entrepreneurs in developing countries may identify and exploit opportunities, we have little empirical knowledge about this critical entrepreneurial process in the developing country context, leading to calls for further research. (Dencker, et al. 2021; Foo,
