▼ Schizotypy refers to a cluster of personality traits including unusual perceptual experiences, ideas of reference, suspiciousness, magical thinking, constricted affect, no close friends, social anxiety, eccentric behavior, and odd/disorganized speech. One core deficit observed in individuals with schizotypy is social impairment; however, the underlying mechanisms of social impairment are not well understood. Neurocognitive performance may provide an avenue for understanding social impairment in schizotypy. Empirical evidence suggests a relationship between neurocognitive variables such as language and functional outcomes, including social impairment, across schizophrenia spectrum populations. Schizotypal personality characteristics are also related to performance on language tasks and to social functioning. Some literature suggests that in samples of individuals with schizophrenia, neurocognition is indirectly related to functional outcomes through clinical symptoms. Across the schizophrenia spectrum, cognitive deficits precede the development of clinical symptoms and social impairment. As such, there is reason to believe that in schizotypy samples, cognitive functioning may also be indirectly related to social functioning through schizotypal personality traits; however, to our knowledge, this relationship has not yet been explored. The present thesis utilized archival data to examine the relationships among language performance, schizotypal personality characteristics, and social function in an undergraduate sample. Results indicated the high schizotypy group performed poorer on some tasks of language, reported greater social impairment, and were objectively rated as exhibiting more socially aberrant behaviors than was the low schizotypy group. In the high group only, schizotypal personality traits were negatively related to performance on some language tasks, and to self-reported social functioning. In the high group only, support for an indirect relationship between language performance and social functioning through schizotypal personality characteristics was found. Our findings may help to provide insight as to the mechanisms of social dysfunction to better target treatment efforts in schizophrenia spectrum populations. Limitations and future research are discussed. Advisors/Committee Members: Suhr, Julie (Committee Chair).

▼ Coal mining activities can result in a variety of environmental issues and, worldwide, one of the greatest threats from coal mining is acid mine drainage (AMD). In the eastern U.S. coal bearing regions, AMD is a wide spread environmental impairment to waterways, especially from abandoned or closed underground coal mines. Pollutional discharge can result from flooding of underground mines, or mine pools, resulting in reactions that create AMD and discharge to surface water. Research has focused on improving reclamation and treatment methods for AMD to address ongoing pollution problems, but there is a need for more reliable prediction methods for use in continued permitting of lands for coal mining. Under the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act (SMCRA), coal companies are required to estimate the post-mining water levels to determine if a mine pool will form and if there may be a pollutional discharge, but there is a lack of a science-based method for determining the hydrologic response to mining. This thesis sought to address the gap in prediction by expanding previously explored parameters of mine pool formation in post-SMCRA mines through expanding previous multivariate statistical analyses. Analyses were done in both the Unscrambler X and Neuroshell. An algorithm produced in Neuroshell, an artificial neural network program, resulted in the least amount of error and was incorporated into a tool for modeling post-mining potentiometric head elevation through ArcGIS Pro model building function. The predictive tool developed in ArcGIS Pro was made to output points of predicted post-mining water levels. The tool only requires input of data that would be required for an underground mine permit application. This work has continued the work of an ongoing project to provide mine companies and regulators with a predictive ArcGIS tool that determines if a mine pool will form and discharge to the surface. This project’s final output is an empirically predictive ArcGIS tool that is publicly available for download to be used as a new approach to science-based estimation of underground mining effects on area hydrology. Methods used to develop both the algorithm and the tool in ArcGIS Pro can be used in other coal bearing regions around the world to develop a similarly useful tool for understanding connections between hydrology and underground mining.

▼ In this dissertation, I interrogated the claims to origin and cure of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and the economics of Antiretroviral Drugs (ARVs) in the rhetoric of the Gambian President, Yahya Jammeh. This study was motivated by two research questions: (1) How does Jammeh’s claims fit into or depart from the known HIV/AIDS and ARVs discourses; and (2) to what extent can Kenneth Burke’s terministic screens, in conjunction with the dramatistic pentad, be applied to Jammeh’s claims to distill the values embedded in them for Jammeh’s motives and their articulation? Regarding the origin of the HIV virus, I unearthed three competing theories—the natural transfer, the conspiratorial, and the Congo-jungle accident. Concerning the therapeutic landscape of HIV/AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa, I unraveled four predominant treatment models—the biomedical, Christian, Islamic, and traditional. For the economic views on ARVs, I synthesized four paradigms—the postcolonial, the avant-garde, the humanitarian, and the activist—for the explication of ARVs. I distilled five pentadic acts from Jammeh’s claims. The first pentadic act is dominated by agency with pragmatism as its philosophical mooring. This is followed by two pentadic acts dominated by purpose with mystical philosophical inclinations, while another two of the pentadic acts are dominated by agent with idealistic philosophical outlook. The pentadic mapping of Jammeh’s claims revealed that, with regard to the origin of the HIV virus, Jammeh—Allah’s agency—speaks from a conspiratorial terministic screen. For the therapeutic map, it revealed Jammeh speaks from the Islamic-prophetic terministic screen; while for the economic map, it points to Jammeh’s claims as postcolonial terministic constructions, whereby a purposeful neocolonial West employs ARVs to exploit and dominate Black African bodies. For the most part, Jammeh’s claims lack evidence in the known scientific ways. Jammeh employs fear appeals, equivocation, and identification and disassociation to attract PLWHAs to his treatment sessions. With health-dictatorship in the Gambia, there is the need to reset the pentad in ways that encourage civil participation in the HIV/AIDS and ARVs discourse in the Gambia. KEY WORDS: Rhetorical values; Yahya Jammeh; the Gambia; Conspiracy theory, Islamic-prophetic; Postcolonial. Advisors/Committee Members: Bates , Benjamin (Committee Chair).

▼ Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) has been a popular research topic in the corrosion field due to continuous failures caused by MIC. It has caused billions of dollars in financial losses in the United States alone every year. Biofilms areoften blamed for causing MIC. Sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) are the principalspecies in publications about MIC research and case studies of MIC failure. Other than SRB, some other species are capable ofinitiating MIC as well. More attention and resources have been focused on MIC research than ever before. Many mechanisms and models have been reported to explain how MIC occurs. The cathodic depolarization theory (CDT) was well-accepted and inspired most of the other theories, although with a few limitations. In 2009, the Biocatalytic Cathodic Sulfate Reduction (BCSR) theory was proposed to describe the process of MIC caused by SRB from an electrogenic perspective.In this research, the starvation test and the electron mediator testwere doneusing a field collected biofilm consortium to study the BCSR theory. Biofilms caused more severecorrosion in the modified ATCC 1249 medium, in which the carbon sources were reduced, than in the full strength ATCC 1249 medium. This supports the BCSR theory that when sessile cells lack a carbon source, they switch the electrondonorsfroma carbonsource to elementaliron. The electron mediator test was done in the modified ATCC 1249 medium, in which all carbon sources were completely removed. Riboflavin was chosen as the electron mediator. The maximum pit depth in the presence of riboflavin was less, however,more weight loss was obtained. It indicated that in the presence of the electron mediator the biofilm wasable to attack the coupon evenly. Therefore, more general corrosion instead of localized corrosion was observed on the coupon surface when riboflavin was added.After the mechanistic studies had beenaddressed, the mitigation of the field collectedbiofilm consortia was investigated. First of all, twoD-amino acids,D-serine and D-threonine, were individuallytested as biocide enhancers of tetrakis hydroxymethyl phosphonium sulfate (THPS)in the mitigation of Desulfovibrio vulgaris biofilms. The results show that they are effective biocide enhancers for THPS. The mechanism of D-amino acids triggering the biofilm dispersal was investigated.Secondly, a novel biocide cocktail of glyceryl trinitrate(GTN) and caprylic acid (CA) was tested. D-methionine enhanced the efficacy of GTN + CA.Finally, D-amino acid mixtures were tested as biocide enhancers of THPS, alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride (ADBAC), and tributyl tetradecyl phosphonium chloride(TTPC) in the mitigation of field collectedbiofilm consortia. Individual D-amino acids were not able to enhance the efficacy of biocides since the effect of D-amino acids triggering biofilm disassembly was specific to the types of D-amino acid and the species. Different species require different D-amino acids as signal molecules. Three different D-amino acid mixturesincluding 4, 8, and 12 different D-amino… Advisors/Committee Members: Gu, Tingyue (Advisor).

▼ It is believed that Golgi-localized, multi-protein complexes synthesize plant hemicellulosic polysaccharides. However, such complexes are not well characterized in plants, which is in sharp contrast with mammalian and yeast cells. This dissertation describes the characterization of the first hemicellulose synthase complex involved in xylan biosynthesis in wheat (named a Xylan Polymerase-1, TaXPol-1). Xylan is the most abundant plant hemicellulosic polysaccharide on Earth and plays an important role in the integrity of cell walls. It consists of a ß-(1,4)-linked xylose backbone that can be substituted with a-(1,2)-D-glucuronic acid residues and/or a-L-arabinofuranosyl residues at the C-2 and/or C-3 positions of xylose residues. A xylan synthase activity was immuno-purified from etiolated wheat seedlings and its protein composition determined by proteomics analysis. Four glycosyltransferases (GTs) were identified: CAZy GT43 family member (named TaGT43-4), GT47 family member (named TaGT47-13), and two GT75 family members (named TaGT75-3 and TaGT75-4). In addition, two new proteins were identified: a germin-like protein (TaGLP) belonging to the cupin family and a 26kDa protein annotated as vernalization-related 2 (TaVER2). Heterologous co-expression of TaGT43-4, TaGT47-13, TaGT75-3, TaGT75-4, and TaGLP in Pichia pastoris cells resulted in reconstitution of xylan synthase activity in micosomes from transgenic yeast lines. The results showed that (i) TaGT43-4 and TaGT47-13 form a central core that is necessary and sufficient for synergistic incorporation of xylose and glucuronic acid, but requires TaGT75-3 and/or TaGT75-4 (putative mutases) for synergistic incorporation of xylose and arabinose, and (ii) TaGLP was needed for optimal xylan synthase activity. Furthermore, radio labeled products generated by microsomes from transgenic yeast cells have xylan characteristics. Bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) and confocal microscopy were used to show that TaGT43-4 interacts with TaGT47-13, TaGT75-3, TaGT75-4, and TaGLP, and these proteins assemble into a complex in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) before export to the trans-Golgi. Importantly, ER export of TaXPol-1 requires that TaGT43-4 and TaGT47-13 interact. Advisors/Committee Members: Ahmed, Faik (Advisor).

▼ This dissertation research focuses on the monitoring of electrochemistry (EC) redox reactions and the elucidation of organic reaction mechanisms by mass spectrometry (MS). First, the online coupling of EC with MS using desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) was developed for elucidating the redox reaction mechanisms of several biologically relevant reduction and oxidation reactions and exploring their analytical applications. The complete electrochemical reduction of complicated disulfides in peptides greatly enhanced the sequence coverage from tandem MS analysis, which helps sequence the peptides. The stepwise nitro-reduction mechanism was also confirmed for several nitroaromatic drug compounds. The transient one-electron transfer product chlorpromazine radical cation was also captured successfully by MS for the first time. Electrochemical reactions taking place in water are rarely studied using online MS techniques. The second project presents EC/DESI-MS applications in some aqueous phase redox reactions with biological significance. The MS evidence that nitrosothiol reduction leads to free thiol species by loss of NO was obtained. The characteristic mass decrease of 29 Da and the reduced intensity of the precursor peptide ions provide a quick way to identify nitrosylated species. In addition, it was also found that saccharides undergo electrooxidation to produce the corresponding carboxylic acid in alkaline aqueous solution, but not at neutral and acidic pHs. Upon electrochemical oxidation, carbamazepine was found to undergo ring contraction and amide bond cleavage, which parallels the oxidative metabolism observed for this drug in leucocytes. MS is also of great importance for fundamental gas phase ion chemistry study. In the third project, the MS instrument was successfully modified to perform ion/molecule reactions. The reactivity and structure investigation of oxidized metal thiolate compounds by MS in conjunction with ion/molecule reactions was conducted. The addition reactions of isolated intermediate ions with alkenes and methyl ketones in the gas phase were confirmed. More importantly, the thiyl radical nature (i.e., the distonic ion nature) of the oxidized metal thiolate ions was verified by the gas-phase reaction with dimethyl disulfide (CH3SSCH3). Last, MS was also applied for silver- and gold-catalyzed organometallic reaction monitoring. A surprisingly ligand effect was uncovered in the silver-catalyzed alkyne activation: the proper ligand to silver ratio is crucial for maintaining the activity of the catalyst. MS also provided strong evidence for the reaction mechanism elucidation of the ligand-assisted gold-catalyzed cross-coupling of terminal alkynes with aryldiazonium salts.

▼ Tovomita Aubl. is a small genus of trees, shrubs, and hemi-epiphytes distributed in Central America, the West Indies, northern South America, and the Atlantic Coast of Brazil. Species in Tovomita are distinguished from other genera in Clusiaceae by exhibiting sepals that completely envelope the bud, sympodial branching, evident styles and stylodia, and a vascularized arilloid structure covering the seed. Little is known about the foliar micromorphology and anatomy of Tovomita. The genus was last revised in 1892 by Julian Vesque, who described and provided a key for 36 species. Several species have been recognized since that time. The primary aim of this research project was to conduct systematic studies resulting in a taxonomic revision of the genus Tovomita. The systematic studies encompassed a range of methods and diverse objectives. One objective was a phenetic investigation of the large Tovomita weddelliana species complex using traits from herbarium specimens, analyzed with univariate and multivariate approaches. Analyses resulted in the resurrection of several species names and description of five new species. Other objectives examined leaf anatomy and micromorphology. Foliar micromorphology and petiole vasculature of several Tovomita species was also examined. Comparative analysis of stomatal and epidermal cell characteristics, in addition to variations in petiole vasculature patterns, showed taxonomic value in distinguishing individual species and larger species groups. These foliar characteristics appear to reflect the evolutionary history of the genus and may provide insights into phylogenetic groups in Tovomita. Future studies in Tovomita should focus on defining other micromorphological and anatomical characters to use for species circumscriptionand phylogenetic inference. The cumulative results of systematic investigations of Tovomita were applied to a monographic revision of the genus in two parts, one on Central American taxa and the other on South American taxa. Hundreds of herbarium specimens were examined, and treatments were produced, complete with keys, typifications and synonymy, and descriptions. Advisors/Committee Members: Ballard, Harvey (Advisor).

▼ In this dissertation we study transport properties of graphene within the low energy Dirac approximation. We utilize partial wave scattering methods and relate the scattering matrix elements to physical observables such as the elastic time, transport time, and skewness of scattering. We suggest that experimentally measurable quantities, such as the transport to elastic time ratio, indicate the presence of perturbations that lead to the reduction of symmetries of graphene, as well as spin-orbit interactions. This result relies on the fact that perturbations that leave graphene symmetries untouched, such as potential scatterers, display a constant ratio of transport to elastic times at low energies, making this ratio robust to random scatterer size and strength disorder. We also show that this ratio is not robust to either symmetry breaking perturbations or spin-orbit interactions, as these interactions lead to the ratio deviating from its ideal value. Even though both kinds of perturbations, symmetry breaking and spin-orbit interactions, lead to changes in the ratio, we show that the qualitatively different dependence on energy for each of these perturbations allows the experimental identification and quantification of both effects simultaneously.We have also shown, in relation to the spin Hall effect detection in graphene, that even though the local enhancement of spin-orbit interactions leads to the appearance of a spin Hall effect signal robust to potential and size disorder, the breaking of effective time reversal symmetry through local perturbations leads to the appearance of a valley Hall effect through skew scattering. This valley skew processes contribute to the non-local resistance that helps quantify the Hall effect. Similarly, we show that multiple potential scatterers with space dependence that breaks parity in graphene, also lead to the appearance of a valley Hall effect due to the separation of electrons from different valleys in space through skew scattering. These results suggest that measured spin Hall effect in graphene is not robust to the latter perturbations, indicating that this effect may not be completely produced by local enhancement of spin orbit interactions alone, but as suggested before, may be accompanied by a competing valley Hall effect that overestimates the measured effect.Finally, in the high energy regime we show that long-lived quasi-bound states in graphene gated regions mimic the behavior of whispering gallery modes. In the limit of electron optics, we have also shown how gated regions in graphene are analogous to lenses with variable index of refraction, and that the presence of spin-orbit interactions makes these lenses birefringent, with a degree of birefringence that indicates the strength of the spin-orbit enhancement.

▼ This dissertation examines the ways Quechua women communicate embodied memories of political violence from their experience during the conflict between state forces and Shining Path in Peru (1980s-1992). To answer this question, I ask three subsidiary research questions: How does the film, The Milk of Sorrow, illustrate Quechua women's embodied memories of political violence in Peru (1980s-1992)? How do contemporary Quechua women discuss their embodied memories of political violence from the conflict? How do Quechua women draw upon these embodied memories as they negotiate their contemporary lives in the hills outside of Lima? By performing a thematic analysis of the film, conducting two focus groups and a photovoice project, I analyze how Quechua women communicate embodied memories of political violence (1980s-1992). After analyzing participants' responses, I argue that the film enables the exploration of memories of political violence in Peru within the Quechua female body. To develop this argument, I draw on Marks's (2000) use of a theory of embodied visuality to examine the film-viewing process as "an exchange of two bodies" (the viewer and the film) in which the body and culture meet.Chapter 1 offers a synopsis of the film, emphasizing how it reflects the stories of Quechua women who experienced political violence. Chapter 2 provides a feminist explanation for the ways women enact embodied memories in post-conflict societies. Chapter 3 discusses the methods that I followed to answer the research questions and presents the thematic analysis that examines how the film illustrates Quechua women's memories of the conflict. In other words, in chapter 3, I explain the ways I use the film as a starting point for the discussion to explore women's embodied memories of the conflict. Chapter 4 illustrates how Quechua women in focus groups discuss their embodied memories of terrorism. Chapter 5 discusses the results of the photovoice project, which describe how Quechua women draw upon these embodied memories in the hills outside of Lima. Finally, Chapter 6 offers a more detailed connection between Chapters 4 and 5, and, therefore, the film and participants’ embodied memories of the conflict in contemporary times. It also summarizes how this dissertation points to a methodological challenge about the ways researchers learn how others' memories are embodied in their encounters in everyday practices.

▼ Homologous recombination (HR) is critical for double strand break repair and maintenance of genome stability. The recombination mediator proteins in HR play key roles by recruiting RecA-family recombinases like Rad51 to single-stranded DNA. In vitro, mediator proteins bind to their cognate Rad51 recombinases and mediate their loading onto single-stranded DNA which catalyses homology search and DNA strand invasion, a unique and essential process in HR. In yeast, the mediator function is characteristic of the Rad52 (yRad52) protein which also promotes ssDNA annealing. In humans, the breast cancer susceptibility protein (BRCA2) possess the mediator function while the human Rad52 protein is thought to anneal complementary single stranded DNA. However, the role of human Rad52 (hRad52) in HR has remained elusive and no in vitro mediator activity of human Rad52 has been reported. In this study, the loss of mediator function in hRad52 was investigated by examining interspecies interactions between the yeast and human mediators with human Rad51 (hRad51) recombinase. Interestingly, yRad52 successfully mediated loading of hRad51 recombinase onto the single-stranded DNA complexed with yeast RPA in vitro. This recombinase-loading activity was abolished when yeast RPA (E.coli SSB homolog in yeast) was replaced with human RPA, suggesting that species-specific interaction between Rad52 and RPA is important for mediator activity. In this study, the hRad51 binding domain was identified in the yRad52 C-terminus; deletion of the C-terminus (yRad52NM) resulted in loss of mediator function. hRad52 was also tested for mediator activity but it failed to mediate loading of hRad51 in presence of either hRPA or yRPA. As yeast and human Rad52 share similarity between their N-terminal domains, the C-terminal Rad51-binding domain of human Rad52 was replaced with BRC repeats of BRCA2, which is known to interact with hRad51. In another experiment, the hRad52 C-terminal domain was replaced with the yRad52 C-terminal region. Unexpectedly, hRad52-BRC4 and hRad52NM-y52C fusions did not attain mediator activity for human Rad51. Mediator function was not present even when the yRad52 C-terminal domain was replaced with either multiple BRC4 repeats or the BRC3-BRC4 repeat of BRCA2. Taken together, these results indicate that BRC repeats cannot substitute the function of the C-terminal Rad51-binding domain of human or yeast Rad52 and furthermore, an intact yRad52 is required for hRad51 mediator function. In addition, the yRad52 C-terminal domain was determined to be required for efficient ssDNA annealing. Advisors/Committee Members: Sugiyama, Tomohiko (Advisor).

▼ The way in which category specific knowledge is acquired over time has been a longstanding central topic in the cognitive and perceptual sciences. Accordingly, the influence of training and experience on learning has been the focus of much empirical work. This research often involves accounting for the results of concept learning tasks that necessitate classifying category members and non-members. Studies in this area explore questions like the following. Can different concepts be ordered by their relative learning difficulty? Does repeated exposure to a concept result in perceptual expertise and/or expert classification? Is concept acquisition inherently easier for some individuals? The relative difficulty between categories tells us something fundamental about the conceptual system by revealing which relational structures humans are most sensitive. As such, concept learning difficulty orderings for categorical stimuli form an important part of the empirical foundation of concept learning research. However, it is rare that the stability of such orderings is tested over a period of extended learning. Further, this research rarely explores dependent variables beyond classification accuracy that may also indicate relative learning difficulty. Accordingly, this investigation explores the relationship between accuracy and response times (RTs) when practice is gained over multiple category learning sessions. Of particular interest is the extent to which the relative learning difficulty between categories remains stable over sessions of learning. Of additional interest are measures of perceptual fluency (classification RTs) that might reflect category difficulty. Learning difficulty orderings in terms of classification RTs provide an alternative to the conventional approach that construes difficulty solely in terms of mean proportion of correct/incorrect responses. In light of recent empirical support for an invariance–based structural account of conceptual representations (Vigo, 2011a; 2013; 2014), the acquired data is interpreted in the context of generalized invariance structure theory (GIST; Vigo, 2013, 2014) in order to reveal how task experience influences the way concepts are learned and represented over time.

▼ The potential for the desert succulent species Agave americana (L.) as an advanced biofuel crop in water limited regions has recently been recognized. However, the potential productivity of A. americana in the United States is not yet fully understood. This study developed an environmental productivity index (EPI) model that can be used to estimate the actual growth of A. americana based on the seasonal patterns of water, temperature, and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) on a monthly time scale for any given region. Previously published research was used to construct indices that predict growth responses of A. americana to water and temperature. Light responses, however, have not previously been determined for this species, and this study is the first to experimentally resolve the physiological response of A. americana to varying intensities of PAR. The photosynthetic response to light was determined by measuring gas exchange over 24 hours in plants that were acclimated to varied light levels over 10 days. Results were used to derive a predictive index of the growth response to light. Maximum CO₂ fixation rates were observed at a light intensity of 1250 µmol photons m^-2 s^-1. A monthly EPI was calculated as the product of the water, temperature, and light indices appropriate for the monthly environmental conditions in Maricopa, AZ, where the first trial of A. americana was recently completed. Growth predicted using the EPI was compared to actual production. The summed EPI values were highly correlated (R2 = 0.99) with the average total biomass of healthy 2 and 3 year old plants. Quantitative relationships derived here between environmental conditions and production of A. americana provide a simple tool to estimate and compare potential productivity across regions where this species has not yet been grown, and to determine potential geographic ranges in the future as climate changes.

▼ Previous research has indicated that psychological health, academic self-efficacy, and academic stress are significant factors in the personal and academic lives of many college students. Each of these issues has been found to influence academic performance, adjustment to college, and many other aspects of students' lives. The impact that academic self-efficacy and academic stress have on psychological health has not been examined in detail however. In this study, the researcher examined gender, academic self-efficacy, and academic stress as predictors of psychological health in college students. An online survey comprised of instruments assessing these variables was distributed to a sample of college students at one Midwestern university in the USA. The final sample size consisted of 146 participants. A hierarchical regression analysis was conducted to analyze the results, where gender was the first variable entered into the regression analysis, academic self-efficacy second, and academic stress was entered last as it was predicted to account for the most variation in psychological health scores. The results of the analysis indicated that gender was not a significant predictor of psychological health in this sample. Academic self-efficacy and academic stress were both significant predictors of psychological health. Academic self-efficacy accounted for 12.6% of the variation in psychological health scores and academic stress accounted for an additional 11.7% of the variation in psychological health scores. Academic stress did not account for more variation than academic self-efficacy as was hypothesized. Academic stress was found to have a negative correlation with psychological health as expected, but academic self-efficacy also had a negative correlation with psychological health unexpectedly. These results are discussed and possible implications for counselors and others who work with college students are outlined. The limitations of the study and possible directions for future research on these topics are also detailed. Advisors/Committee Members: Pillay, Yegan (Advisor).
