Student Research Symposium

Owning and/or utilizing a smartphone device, similar to buying and selling drug substance(s), can act as a doorway to behavioral addiction. Majority of respondents were from the Millenial period, of which over 50% indicated nomophobic behavior. Thus, with technology now being incorporated in the classrooms, it is important to control the device usage in children to monitor and prevent problematic cellphone dependency in the future.

I am looking at covering the handy van. The problem of the van is that you’ll have to pay $2.00 each way and that it has to be exact change, or have a coupon that you bought earlier for your ride. The trouble with paying cash is that you do not always have exact change, ATMs only handout twenties, and the drivers do not get change. The coupons you have to get at the main bus transit center in town, and this is a problem if you do not have the time to be able to go in and pick them up.

With the handy van ID, I do not see why those that ride the van cannot purchase a year pass at the transit center like you can for the bus. This would allow those that ride the van easier access for their ride because they have a hard enough time going from place to place without the hassle of buying coupons or have an exact change. From the way I see it, this is why many that could ride the handy van, ride the bus instead. The only problem with riding the bus is that for some areas the bus does not go near, it is too far for most to go from the bus stop to a where they need to go.

The handy van is convenient for dropping you off where you need to go; time is the only problem. For just two appointments you would need to leave the house at 930 AM to make it to your 12:00 appointment, then leave there at 1430 for your 1600 appointment, later finally be picked up at 1730 to make it home by 1830 or 1900. This is just for two appointments one at noon and one at four. Basically, you’re a whole day has been spent waiting on the van. For those that use the van to go to work every day, having enough coupons is a problem if you do not relies that your short.

Other problems with the Handie-van is that most people do not know what the Handie-van will do during an emergencies like hurricanes. People also do not know who will activate the Handie-van during emergencies or where they are supposed to take their passengers.

Introduction: Having a precise strength training plan can help prevent injuries (1). Football is one sport in which is very physically taxing and injuries often occur. With the NFL-225 training, we believe football players will add strength and have a better body composition.

Methods: Participants worked out four days a week for 5 week time period mainly focusing mainly on the bench press and back squat.

Results: Mean change in body mass, back squat, and bench press were all averaging in a positive weight increase.

Conclusion: After recording 5 weeks, we concluded that on average, most of the participants significantly increased in strength but it could not be determined if weight change was due to muscle gain or fat loss.

The purpose of this study is to describe the correlation between underage binge drinking and mental health-related consequences. I wondered how the age at which adolescents begin to drink, peer influences, and parental supervision affects their level of mental health issues.

I created a survey composed of quantitative and qualitative questions, and questions from three screening questionnaires for anxiety, depression, and suicide sensitivity. After conducting three in class data collections and several in person data collections, I found that adolescents that first binge drink when they are 12 to 17 years old, are not influenced by their peers, and are supervised by their parents have higher levels of anxiety, depression, and suicide sensitivity.
