Flores, Ashley | Survey of pediatric audiologist on their use of loudness perception measures | The goal of hearing aid fitting is to ensure that low-level sounds are audible, average-level sounds are comfortable, and more intense sounds are loud but not too loud. The uncomfortable loudness level (UCL) threshold helps define the patient's dynamic range, which is used during device fitting. A 2... | | 2021 |

Ho, Tyler | Anteroposterior gait adjustments are the primary recovery strategies to repeated underfoot perturbations during turning gait | Background: Despite ample research examining human gait, much is still unknown about how humans navigate unpredictable terrain. Most research has analyzed strictly linear gait, which does not comprise all of the gait tasks in everyday ambulation. Instead, humans routinely employ complex gait movemen... | | 2022 |

Montoya-Ortiz, Jaylie Denise | Changes to walking trajectories to avoid altitude-related threats | Walking in complex environments demands changes in locomotor behavior. Despite knowledge of how altitude threats, such as walking at high heights, affect spatiotemporal measures of gait, it is unclear how individuals select walking trajectories when there are altitude threats. The purpose of this st... | | 2022 |

Holden, Ella | The impacts of climate change induced droughts on smallholder farmers in Latin America and the caribbean: poverty, food insecurity and drought adaptation strategies | Extreme weather events caused by climate change have serious implications. Drought, a natural disaster, has been worsened by climate change, and has had major consequences on the agricultural industry. While many farmers can adapt to major droughts, small-scale farmers in developing countries strugg... | | 2023 |

Arreguin, Jamine | The effect of mild traumatic brain injury on turning stability | Background: There are minimal studies that focus on the margin of stability (MoS) as a whole when looking at dynamic stability in gait for individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Research on turning gait is important since it is common during daily life and has a high risk for falls and... | | 2023 |

Willis, Hannah | Advancing the right to health: lessons for improving the negotiation powers of Medicare | The United States (US) spends more per capita on prescription drugs than other high-income countries (Sarnak, Squires & Bishop, 2017). Yet, the high cost of drugs does not translate to better health outcomes. In fact, the US has a significantly lower life expectancy at birth and higher death rates f... | | 2023 |
