Victim Advocacy for Latina Women: Addressing Barriers Situated in the Scholarly and Public Spheres
This research will explore how machismo, marianismo, and mental health stigma impact victim advocacy for Latina women. By analyzing existing literature and systemic challenges, this study will advocate for culturally informed solutions that address the legal, social, and psychological barriers Latina survivors face. Through a critical lens, this paper will examine the ways in which existing victim services can be improved and expanded to better serve this underrepresented population
Noether symmetries of the minimal surface Lagrangian for Gödel-type spacetimes
We investigate the Noether symmetries of the minimal surface Lagrangian for four classes of metrics in Gödel-type spacetimes. Then, calculating the Noether symmetries for all classes, namely, classes I, II, III and IV, we determine the conserved fields corresponding to each class, allowing us to derive a comprehensive characterization of the minimal surface equations for Gödel-type spacetimes
Safer Futures: Strategies for Enhancing Collaboration Between Law Enforcement and Child Welfare Agencies in Preventing Fatal Child Abuse
losing is finding is losing
I am a Turkish-American sophomore studying psychology and criminal justice with a minor in math, a trio that, at first glance, may not lend itself to poetry, yet here we are. I like to dabble in a bit of everything, triangulate my knowledge, and am especially interested in yoga, graphic design, and reading! I don\u27t write often, but when I do, it is with utmost intention. I plan to continue my studies at the graduate level, following my curiosity wherever it leads me

Correcting Climate Change Misinformation to Encourage Sustainable Consumption Behaviors: The Mediating Role of Perceived Scientific Consensus
In recent years, the resilience and sustainability of communities amid accel-erating climate change have gained significant attention. While much research examines individual motivations to adopt climate-friendly lifestyles, misin-formation about climate change poses a substantial challenge to scientific consensus. The extent to which perceived scientific consensus influences green consumerism remains underexplored. To address this gap, we conducted a between-subjects experiment exposing participants to climate misinformation, followed by either fact-checking or no fact-checking. Results showed that fact-checking messages emphasizing scientific consensus increased perceived consensus, which heightened environmental concern and, subsequently, green consumption behaviors. These findings contribute to research on resilience, sustainability, and climate change by examining not only the motivations behind sustainable lifestyle choices but also the influence of external message factors. Our study highlights the critical role of scientific consensus in combating misinformation and fostering behaviors that mitigate climate change
