Fumiko Hosokawa

“Aging as a Developmental Perspective,” an article published by Fumiko Hosokawa, professor emeritus of sociology, was published in the Journal of Sociology and Social Work. The qualitative research study compares a small sample of university students 50 and older with seniors at a community center, whose perspectives of aging were shown to be affected by societal views on aging and cultural values.


College of Business Administration and Public Policy

“Feeling sleepy? You might be at risk of falsely confessing to a crime you did not commit,” was an article co-authored last year by Shari , assistant professor of criminal justice, for The Conversation. It was recently published in several large media outlets, including Time, Business Insider, and Yahoo News.

 

 

 

Fynnwin Prager, assistant professor of public administration, co-authored the book Economic Consequence Analysis of Disasters: The E-CAT Software Tool (Springer, April 2017), which develops a methodology for rapidly obtaining approximate estimates of the economic consequences from numerous natural, man-made and technological threats. He also co-authored the article “Economic consequences of aviation system disruptions: A reduced-form computable general equilibrium analysis,” which appeared in the Journal Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice in January 2017.


Recent quotes and/or interviews in the media from faculty

“Children crave a connection to their parents and learn from their parents’ behaviors. Constantly checking your phone is going to have a negative impact on this connection.” – Larry Rosen, professor emeritus of psychology, was interviewed for the KFGO-790 article “Why parents’ tech obsession may mean kids misbehave.”
