"The American Blueprint: Tracing the Roots of Nazi Eugenics and Race Law"
Allison’s paper was written for Dr. Devlin Scofield’s Research Seminar class and examines how American eugenics pioneered and legitimized Nazi Germany’s racial policies. Findings reveal a transnational exchange where U.S. statutes and funding provided the ideological and financial blueprint for the Third Reich. The study concludes that Nazi racial hygiene and eugenical practices did not emerge in isolation, but were rather a product of U.S. transnational influence.
Congratulations, Allison!
“Criterion Shifts Aren't the Sole Explanation of False Memories in the DRM Paradigm”
Ashlee’s paper was written for Dr. Jason McCain’s Research Methods II class and was a replication of Gallo et al.’s (2001) study on associative false recognition. Participants for the study were students from Northwest MO State University who were randomly assigned to a condition: warning or no-warning about critical lures. False recognition was measured by frequency of “new” words identified as “old”. A one-way ANOVA was used to analyze the difference in false recognition between conditions.
Congratulations, Ashlee!
“Leigh Syndrome in the mitochondria and its impacts on cellular reparation”
Avery’s paper, originally written for Dr. Gretchen Thornsberry’s Cell Biology class describes the impacts of Leigh syndrome, a degenerative pediatric disease, on the mitochondria and cellular function. Leigh syndrome attacks the cell’s ability to generate energy eventually it leads to the loss of muscle control, speech, and respiratory function.
Congratulations, Avery!
