Majority of the CA young adults have perceived racial/ethnic discrimination in the community. Furthermore, perceived discrimination has been positively associated with their depressive and somatic symptoms, suggesting a need to address racial/ethnic discrimination issues to promote positive mental health in this population. It is important for school/work personnel and healthcare providers to assess CA young adults’ discrimination experiences, and have the sufficient resources (e.g., education, support groups) to prevent negative consequences associated with discrimination.
This thesis explores how a completely online treatment service can help lower the treatment gap through a financial lens. The thesis then analyzes how an online only model differs from traditional treatment programs with an emphasis on financial data. It includes market models and financial forecasts. The thesis also outlines a business model for an online only treatment center and addresses the financial and operational difficulties in starting such a venture.
This study examined the differences in mental and behavioral treatment outcomes between use of Telehealth and in-person appointments in effort to mitigate discrepancies that may lessen treatment efficacy.
Interstellar travel has been one of planet Earth’s grandest achievements in modern history. To send people and entire laboratories beyond Earth’s atmosphere is an unfathomably complex and challenging accomplishment; the logistics and engineering alone took decades to execute, and even now, it remains problematic. The risks involved with space travel are immense: rocket failures such as that in Columbia, hull breaches, or simple miscalculations that may result in numerous deaths and severe casualties. For much of its history, space travel has emphasized practicality, economics, and engineering, leaving little room to design an environment supporting those in orbit. While engineering, finances, and feasibility reign as the highest priorities in space habitation, there is an often overlooked necessity to design environments that better address station inhabitants' mental and behavioral needs.
