"The Effects of Police Killings on African American Adolescents' Internalized behaviors" by Ashley Cunningham
Abstract: News and social media tycoons including YouTube and Facebook give the world access to social injustices on a day to day basis. A particular injustice that riddles the African American community is the unjust killing of men and women at the hands of police. Often times, these men and women leave behind children that require assistance in which is not offered. There has been minimal research on the effects of how this experience affects youth in a school environment. This review explores the effects on African American adolescents’ ages 13 through 17 internalized behavior after a parent is shot and killed by police.
"The Socioeconomic Effects on the use of prepositions in titles" by Julian P. Quinn
Abstract: To delve into the linguistic appeal and popularity of certain titles of texts, specifically newspaper, journal/magazine, and fictional texts that either begin with these prepositions: on, after, concerning, towards, with, or contain one of them. My research will include data analyses of the most common of these five prepositions in titles during three distinct years, 1929, 1969, 2001 – the stock market crash, the landing on the moon, and the Al-Qaeda terrorist attacks. I will make analyses of the potential socioeconomic/linguistic reasons for the leading preposition’s popularity in these distinct cultural moments. I will use GlobalCat, the world's largest network of library content and services to conduct my research.
