¿QUÉ ES GAY?: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC ACCOUNT OF SEXUALITY AND GENDER EXPRESSION IN SOUTHERN MANABÍ PROVINCE, ECUADOR.

Abstract/Description
This thesis explores how gender and sexuality are expressed in southern Manabí Province, Ecuador. The study employs ethnographic methods to recruit local people who identify as LGBTQ (called LGBTI regionally) to participate in interviews on sexuality and gender identity/expression. Based on this research, I explore the construction of “gay” in this part of Ecuador as identity and performance; additionally, reflective viewpoints of those who self-identify as “gay” are thematically incorporated...
Show moreThis thesis explores how gender and sexuality are expressed in southern Manabí Province, Ecuador. The study employs ethnographic methods to recruit local people who identify as LGBTQ (called LGBTI regionally) to participate in interviews on sexuality and gender identity/expression. Based on this research, I explore the construction of “gay” in this part of Ecuador as identity and performance; additionally, reflective viewpoints of those who self-identify as “gay” are thematically incorporated. The term “gay” is used to describe a spectrum of identities that include: homosexual, transformista, travestí, transexual, and transgénero. These identities are not necessarily static, as many individuals traverse categories in a culturally specific progression that I describe. I propose that coastal Ecuadorians utilize a structuring of sexualities and genders within the region that challenges Western LGBTQ+ labels. This research suggests a new regional depiction of non-conforming identities and their manifestations through language, shared strife, communal beliefs, and individual experience.

ZODIACAL CONSTRUCTION OF "TAMBURLAINE I AND II."
Title
THE ZODIACAL CONSTRUCTION OF "TAMBURLAINE I AND II.".
Creator
JEFFERSON, ESTELLE FUGATE., Florida Atlantic University, Collins, Robert A.
Abstract/Description
While the text of Tamburlaine I and II contains the classic pattern of act and scene divisions, the organic structure of the play is governed by the twelve signs and houses of the zodiac. The play's metaphorical patterns are consciously formulated to correspond to the zodiacal year, and consequently represent a circular pattern. The play's well-known rising and falling movement (Parts I and II) is analogous to both solar day and solar year. As hero, Tamburlaine's role is that of Sol, the...
Show moreWhile the text of Tamburlaine I and II contains the classic pattern of act and scene divisions, the organic structure of the play is governed by the twelve signs and houses of the zodiac. The play's metaphorical patterns are consciously formulated to correspond to the zodiacal year, and consequently represent a circular pattern. The play's well-known rising and falling movement (Parts I and II) is analogous to both solar day and solar year. As hero, Tamburlaine's role is that of Sol, the central planet in the Ptolemaic system, ascending with the vernal equinox in Part I and descending with the autumnal equinox in Part II. The imagery traverses, in sequential fashion, the signs and houses, with one radical adjustment: Pisces is removed from the end of the cycle and placed at the beginning of Act I, an alteration which probably has concealed the metaphorical pattern heretofore.

Abstract/Description
The Zealots were an alliance of five United States Senators and Representatives who led the radical wing of the Republican Party from the years 1860 to 1868. They clashed with President Lincoln over emancipation and how the Civil War was conducted, overcame the hostility of President Johnson and finally imposed on the South, a reconstruction plan of their own.

Show moreThe purpose of this study was to investigate the process used by Haitians and Haitian Americans who must make healthcare decisions for a terminally ill family member. There is a large population of Haitians and Haitian Americans in South Florida and there has been no research regarding their decision-making process about end-of-life healthcare. The study design was descriptive, applying constructivist grounded theory methodology. Data were collected using semi-structured, face-to-face qualitative interviews. Data analysis and collection occurred simultaneously. Participants (n=12) were purposefully recruited, with 11 from a single, faith-based community. The findings resulted in six concepts: (1) imminent or actual death, (2) disrupted unity, (3) managing disrupted unity, (4) consequences, (5) restoring unity, and (6) creating memories you can live with. These six concepts, elaborated by an additional 17 dimensions, were incorporated into a process model relating to the cultural value of communal unity to the end-of-life decision-making process. The implications of this study include a need to improve the congruence between the nursing care provided at this vulnerable time and the cultural values of this population. Successful access to this population through the structure of the faith-based community points the way to increasing access to appropriate end-of-life healthcare. Practice implications informed by caring science include the importance of nurses’ coming to know the family and listening to the unique care needs.

YOUNG CHILDREN'S RECALL OF SELF-GENERATED SCENES.
Creator
SAARNIO, DAVID ARI., Florida Atlantic University
Abstract/Description
Kindergarten, second, and fifth graders were given 15 self-adhesive line drawings to affix on either (1) a simple scene, (2) a scrambled scene, (3) a blank sheet of paper, or (4) a sheet of paper divided into 15 squares. Recall of the objects was tested immediately and again after one week. In general, immediate recall was greater in the simple-scene condition than in all others for all grades tested.

Show moreKindergarten, second, and fifth graders were given 15 self-adhesive line drawings to affix on either (1) a simple scene, (2) a scrambled scene, (3) a blank sheet of paper, or (4) a sheet of paper divided into 15 squares. Recall of the objects was tested immediately and again after one week. In general, immediate recall was greater in the simple-scene condition than in all others for all grades tested. Recall in the scrambled condition was also greater than in the other two conditions for second and fifth graders, but not for the kindergarten children. The sheet divided into squares and the blank sheet conditions did not differ from each other at any time. The results for delayed recall were similar in that the condition with the simple scene yielded performance superior to all others. However, the scrambled condition no longer differed from the other two conditions. The results suggest the importance of assessing children's memory for information in conditions or backgrounds which approximate those found in the real world, and of the use of schematic or episodic organization by young children.
