▼ The relationship between risk and return is a central theme of finance. The classic theoretical model which addresses this relationship is the Capital Asset Pricing Model, ?CAPM?. The CAPM of Sharpe (1964), Lintner (1965), and Black (1972) posits that a security?s return is directly and positively related to its exposure to systematic risk as measured by beta. Tests of the CAPM theorized relationship between risk and return predominantly support a direct, linear relationship. A minority of the research on the CAPM purports to show that the relationship between a security?s beta and its return is either too flat, or even inverse (Blitz, Falkenstein, & Vliet, 2014). This inverse relationship is known as the ?low-beta anomaly?. Such tests of the CAPM largely focus on a single beta estimation interval; five years of monthly returns. The purpose of this study was to assess the nature of the relationship between equity beta, and post-estimation return. Specifically, this study sought to address the validity and persistence of the low-beta anomaly across multiple beta estimation intervals. Within the twenty year sample period from January of 1994 to December of 2013 this research covered ten different beta estimation intervals in order to determine whether a statistically significant and theoretically consistent relationship existed between equity beta and post-estimation realized return. This was done utilizing a double-pass, or ?Fama-MacBeth? regression (Fama & MacBeth, 1973), whereby historical beta is first estimated by regressing a security?s return against the return of the market. The second pass of the regression, which provides the empirical test, is then conducted on the historical beta against post-estimation return. Further, this research appropriately accounted for the conditional nature of the beta-return relationship. This research provided two basic conclusions: First, the low-beta anomaly is not robust across multiple beta estimation intervals. Second, with any test of the relationship between beta and return the choice of beta estimation interval matters. Different estimation intervals sometimes provide contradictory empirical results for the same period.

▼ The Federal Patient Self-Determination Act Final Regulations (1995) passed by Congress mandating that healthcare facilities receiving Medicaid and Medicare must present to patients information necessary for medical decision making. As a part of this act, Advance Directives (ADs) give patients autonomy in making decisions regarding end-of-life preferences prior to becoming incapacitated or otherwise unable to communicate. Documented and publicized legal cases of incapacitated young adult patients ages 21-40 without expressed medical treatment choices and end-of-life preferences have brought the concern to the forefront for young adult African American families. The primary aim of this study was to explore the perceptions, knowledge, and attitudes towards and the utilization of ADs in members of young adult African American families. A secondary aim of the study was to explore the relationship between the demographic variables of gender, educational level, marital status, and occupation of young adult African American family members and their knowledge, attitudes, and utilization of ADs. This mixed method, descriptive design study was guided by Imogene King’s general systems framework using the concepts of self, perceptions, transactions, and attitudes. The researcher recruited young adult African American family members for the convenience sample from which data was collected using the Advance Directives: Knowledge, Attitudes, Utilization Questionnaire (Waters, 2000), a demographic data sheet, and a focus group session. The data revealed perceptions, knowledge, and attitudes of ADs which the researcher categorized into seven themes: (a) lack of knowledge, (b) fear of death, (c) trust in God, (d) family as decision maker, (e) decrease in family stress, (f) family as decision-maker, and (g) respecting choices. The data did not support evidence of significant relationships between the variables gender, marital status, education, and occupation and the knowledge, attitudes, and utilization of ADs with the exception of the relationship between gender and the feeling of being treated differently for having a living will in place. Results suggest a need for members of young adult African American families to obtain knowledge of ADs prior to suffering any unforeseen illness or incapacitation resulting in their inability to make potentially life-altering medical decisions for themselves.

▼ This qualitative study explored the experiences of African American collegiate women during a service learning program to the non-traditional study abroad location of Indonesia. The Integrated Model of College Choice, Human Capital Theory, and Experiential Learning Theory formulated the conceptual model and theoretical framework undergirding this research endeavor. The literature review comprised a discussion of non-traditional study abroad locations, study abroad trends of underrepresented groups, navigation of the study abroad decision process, and service learning as a study abroad option. Four research questions explored participants’ descriptions of the experience, social and cultural challenges encountered, changes and learning outcomes achieved, and recommendations for improvement. The findings from individual interviews, a focus group, and a document review yielded four emergent themes, including the development of transnational competence, personal growth and transformation, service learning programmatic considerations, and diversity perspectives. Conclusions of this study indicated that transnational competence was developed by interacting and communicating through a language barrier and gaining exposure to different social and cultural norms, living conditions, religious beliefs, and educational system. Adaptability, flexibility, empathy, respect, and appreciation were achieved learning outcomes and contributed to the development of a global skill set helping students navigate cross-cultural dynamics. Students’ articulation of preparedness, a broadened worldview, and the desire for future international endeavors demonstrated that a short-term service learning study abroad opportunity yielded transnational competence. Students’ experiences of diversity abroad highlighted the relative absence of African American collegiate women from the study abroad landscape in a non-traditional location. The higher education apparatus has a role in reversing the trend of low African American college student participation in study abroad by addressing programmatic considerations, including the provision of more information, improved program planning, and the availability of financing. Creating an institutional culture in which international education is a strategic priority, expectation, and norm can develop students’ transnational competence and positions African American students more competitively for academic and professional success in a globalized world.
