This study examines the decision-making process of Black and White students regarding study abroad participation. The researcher administered online questionnaires to 506 students and conducted follow-up interviews with 35 students. Questionnaire responses were coded and organized into categories of participation and factors relevant at different decision points. Interview responses revealed differences in how Black and White students view the importance of finances. While both saw cost as an issue, their explanations of what is "too expensive" and how finances shaped their decisions varied along racial lines, with White students generally having greater access to financial resources. The researcher aims to understand similarities and differences in the decision-making pathways of participants, non-participants, and Black and White students regarding study abroad.

The document discusses research on gifted girls and boys from elementary school through career choices. It finds that in elementary school, equal numbers of girls and boys are identified as gifted but girls show declining self-confidence and interest in academics compared to boys as they reach adolescence. This is likely due to perceptions that gifted girls should not stand out and prioritize friendship over achievement. The document also examines differences in career paths chosen by gifted women and the underrepresentation of women in STEM fields.
This document provides information for a meeting between Russell Althouse, an Associate Director of College Counseling, and Andy Morris, an Associate Director from Binghamton University. They discuss common goals and expectations for high school counselors and college representatives in managing the college search and application process. They cover topics like how student visits to colleges have changed over time, with more emphasis on online research and parental involvement today. The document outlines ways counselors and reps can work together to serve students and how each can learn about the other through information sharing and campus visits.
This document outlines a proposed Cultural Transition Development Theory for international students studying in the United States. The theory consists of 4 stages: 1) Needs vs. Opportunity, where students identify opportunities in the US and intend to act; 2) Research, where students select a school and make plans; 3) Conflict, where language, cultural, and social barriers lead to shock as reality differs from expectations; and 4) Integration, where students begin to integrate new ideas and aspects of culture into their identity. The document provides examples from interviews of international students' experiences that illustrate stages of the theory. It identifies limitations and proposes future research such as a longitudinal study.
Marketing participation? Student ambassadors’ contribution to Widening Partic...johnroseadams1
This document outlines research on the role of student ambassadors in marketing and widening participation activities at two universities.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

1. Decisions, Decisions…
A New Model for Black and White Student Study Abroad Decision-making
Mya Fisher, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Department of Sociology
RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
This study aims to understand:
the similarities and differences in decision-making between study
abroad participants, non-participants and Black and White students.
the relative import of factors that impact study abroad participation
pathways
METHODS AND ANALYSIS
The data for this project comes from 506 originally designed, online
questionnaires completed by students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
from 2009 – 2011; in addition to 35, one-on-one, in-depth, follow-up interviews
with survey respondents.
The online questionnaires included three open-ended questions:
What comes to mind when you hear the term study abroad?
Do you think an international experience/study abroad is important for
UW- Madison students? Why or Why not?
Do you intend to study abroad during your time at UW-Madison? Why or
why not?
I open-coded the responses using grounded theory analytical techniques. The
resulting codes were organized into concept trees that produced four categories
of participation ( – ) and the broad categories of relevance at three junctures
(A – C) in the decision-making process. A unique feature of the interview tasked
respondents to rank the categories of relevant factors and explain how they were
personally meaningful as they contemplated study abroad participation. Analyses
of data from these interviews reveal differences in relative importance and
orientation toward the categories of relevant factors.

FINDINGS SUMMARY
Different categories of factors impact study abroad
participation at three distinct junctures in the
decision-making process.
These categories are shared by Black and White
students overall, yet their relative import and meaning
in decision-making varies.
For example: Both Black and White students
indicate money is an issue for their decision-
making and that study abroad is expensive.
However, their explanations as to what constitutes
‘too expensive’ and how finances shape their
pursuit of study abroad vary along racial lines.
DOES RACE STILL MATTER?
Yes, but so does class. Black and White students
experience and navigate the university context
differently and their social networks (shaped by
SES) both negatively and positively impact study
abroad decisions.
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS
If we can understand processes and factors
impacting how students make decisions to participate
or not participate in study abroad, we can more
effectively and efficiently recruit, advise and support
our students.
FUTURE RESEARCH PLAN
This project represents original findings from data
collected as part of my dissertation research (to be
completed Aug. 2012). I am currently completing two
articles using this data: (1) introducing the Fisher
(2012) model for study abroad decision-making and
(2) discussing the relationship between perceptions
and how students engage with the idea of money in
their study abroad deliberations.
My next project involves geographically
mapping study abroad destinations using individual
level student demographic information to better
understand destination choice and trends in why
students go where they go when studying abroad.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
This project would not have been possible with the support and assistance
of my writing group who provided constructive feedback during the data
collection, analysis, and writing stages of this long-term dissertation project. I’d
also like to thank the undergraduate UW-Madison students who gave their time to
complete the questionnaire and those who were willing to lend their voices to the
interview. I greatly appreciate my colleagues and the students at Beloit College for
inspiring critical questions during the analysis phase of this project.

The Import and Relevance of Money
WHITE BLACK
Study Abroad is
Too Expensive
“I've been interested in it but I never considered it an option, mainly 'cause I
just thought it was way too expensive. I always had this perception that this
is something that rich kids do. That was very much my perception of it for a
really long time that people from these rich families whose parents pay for
all their school.” – David, Male, interested, non-participant
“Just like how much it cost to study abroad, and I don’t know. Just kind of a little
worried about if it’s going to be too much. […] Yeah. I’m not too worried about it. It
wouldn’t prevent me from going, but I just want to keep that in mind and not totally
dismiss that, you know? ”– Frances, Female, Interested-intender
A Magic Number?
“It wasn’t a huge consideration […] my parents helped me with tuition so it
wasn’t a huge factor. I knew it was going to be either a little bit less or the
same and then I guess I knew it wasn’t going to be some extravagant cost,
like it wasn’t going to be thousands and thousands of dollars more. […] if it
was more expensive, I probably still would have gone. - Allison, Female,
interested-participant
“ I think anything that I have to spend over $10,000, that would be the breaking
point. I would try to stay away from loans as much as possible […] I took for applying
to college trying to get as many scholarships as possible stay away from loans. –
Dawn, Female, interested-intender
“Hey, a little $5000, if I have to go that far, for some study abroad, that’s ok.’ You
know what I’m saying? At the same time, I’d rather not have to pay, though, at the
same time.” – Elisha, Male, interested – intender
Access to financial
resources
“Yeah, I mean, I’m not going to lie, my parents pay for my tuition, so they
paid for it. [laughs] I paid for all the traveling and anything extra I did, not
like the academic portion [using] saved-up money, from working —since 11,
babysitting and real jobs and everything.” – Amanda, Female, interested,
participant
“[…] Well I'm white and middle-class so I consider myself fairly traditional.
The only difference is I don't get any help and never have from my parents
for school, so I've always had to do it myself. So in that way I don't, 'cause
I've always worked full-time.” – David, Male, interested- non-participant
“[Finances] didn’t really play a big role because my parents knew I always
wanted to go abroad and they were willing to pay for it. They’re paying for
me in college right now. So, had I even been getting financial aid, that would
have transferred there. So, pretty much, my parents were willing to pay for
it because they knew I wanted to go and they wanted me to travel and
they’re paying for college so they were paying for me abroad or at college.
Either way, they were paying.” – Bari, Female, interested-participant
“Well I guess since [during the] summer I don't usually have to pay for anything
[because] I’m home; so if it came more than like $10,000 it would be a no. I guess
more than $10,000 […] no. [Plus] my dad's really big on loans, no loans no loans.” –
Gleanza, Female, no interest - non-participant
“I mean, if I could find a loan for it—then I’d make it happen. […] loans wouldn’t
deter me from going.” – Elisha, Male, interested – intender
“Ultimately, I’ll tell someone you can take out the loan, somebody will pay them off
later, either you or a great job. But money is very important. Every time, I’ve gone
to China, I wondered will I have enough money?” – Alicia, Female, interested-
participant
