Sociologist Kathy Charmaz describes how to perform grounded theory by, “You begin with an area to study. Then, you build your theoretical analysis on what you discover is relevant in the actual worlds that you study within this area.” .

Furthermore, this evaluation may inform limited research of RJP program evaluation with a small, rural school district in a region with a prevalent cannabis cultivation industry. Findings from this project may help to fill the gap in the literature on restorative program evaluation for drug-related incidents in school-based settings.

Fragments were visualized by silver staining with a commercial kit . Scoring for each marker was double checked, and any ambiguous accessions were rerun, or scored as missing data. In the later part of the study, fragments were separated and sized on an ABI 3130 Genetic Analyzer . Products from up to four primers were […]

The case management database was embedded in the same Sea Table cloud-based platform as the GAL. Core components of the case management database that informed both process and outcome evaluation measures included data from the Enrollment Form, Exit Form, and the Demographics Questionnaire.

To address these limitations, future studies should incorporate validated, evidence-based instruments to measure suicide risk, such as the Suicide Probability Scale or the Suicide Inventory Questionnaire , which have been cross-culturally validated for use in Native American contexts . Validated, evidence-based instruments to measure the selected predictors should also be incorporated. Another limitation of this study […]

Food use is the second highest use category cited by Hutsul community members, with the common phrase, “food is medicine.” Many highly ranked culturally important food species are also noted for their medicinal qualities.

Out of the 40 people interviewed, 18 mentioned the gathering of mushrooms and stated the importance of mushrooms in culture, economics, and diet. This dataset is small since it was incidental knowledge gathered through interviews and participant observation on plant knowledge; it does not fully capture the extensive deep and rich mycological knowledge rooted in […]
