How Patients Think: Assessing Clinician Competence in University Settings
The past academic year of 2014–2015 I completed an independent research study to observe how patients assess clinician competence within a university setting. The goal of the research was twofold: first, to look at patient-clinician interactions from the patient’s perspective, and second to see if a patient’s past experiences with clinicians have any effect on their current assessment of clinician competence. The study focused on college students at the University of New Hampshire (UNH), Durham campus. In the following paragraphs, I provide a summary of the research project, methodology, and outcomes

Marine Metallic Mineral Resources of the Pacific Basin
In the 1970s and 1980s, the ocean became a focus of attention for mineral producers and consumers. This paper surveys that trend with particular emphasis on several specific metals and types of resource deposit. In particular, the known and speculative details of manganese nodules, cobalt-rich manganese crusts, and polymetallie massive sulfides are discussed and analyzed in an economic context.Environmental Economics and Policy, International Development, International Relations/Trade, Resource /Energy Economics and Policy,
The effect of metacognitive strategy instruction on L2 learner beliefs and listening skills
This pilot study investigated the effect of semester-long strategy-based instruction on
learner beliefs and skills in the processing of aural input by adult learners of English as a
second language at metacognitive and procedural levels. The study addressed two
frequently encountered learner beliefs thought to impede L2 processing of aural input:
The little words aren’t important; intonation is merely decorative. Working on the
premise that learner beliefs underpin learner strategies for processing aural input and are
reflected in learner productive and receptive skills, pre- and post-instruction instruments
measured both learners’ awareness of connected speech processes and the functions of
intonation, and their ability to segment a continuous speech stream, and to process
utterances for speaker intent. Findings using repeated measures analysis of variance
support strategy-based metacognitive training in connected speech and stress and
intonation to promote listening skills awareness, aid word segmentation, and facilitate
understanding utterance content and intended meaning.Published versio
How Should Congress Respond to McDonnell?
Discussion of question of whether McDonnell was essentially right or wrong. Should Congress act to change the McDonnell rule? Should the Supreme Court reconsider it? What would be an alternative or a better way, if there is one, to approach the question of public corruption prosecution
