Effects of selected mathematical computer games on achievement and attitude toward mathematics in university entry-level algebra

Creator:: Moore, Margaret L.
Abstract:: Two mathematical computer games, POE and EQUATIONS, were used to test the effects of games as learning aids in a university entry-level intermediate algebra course. Specifically, this study investigated whether use of these games would significantly increase student achievement in the course and improve student attitude toward mathematics. EQUATIONS is...

Development of a typology of premarital relationship models

Creator:: Koval, James E.
Abstract:: It has been proposed that individuals develop models of premarital relationships based on their preferred ways of experiencing love with another person. This study attempted to operationalize the concept of relationship models to determine if individuals differ in how they expect their feelings of love to develop over the course...

Comparison of underemployed and not underemployed women in two-parent two-child families : an eleven-state rural-urban study

Creator:: Masuo, Diane M., 1947-
Abstract:: This study compared wives defined as underemployed by educational mismatch with not underemployed wives on four major predictor variables-- relative market work advantage; degree of competition in the female labor market; time demands from family members; and assistance with childcare and other housework. The data were from NE 113, An...

New product formulation and multiple dose pharmacokinetics of acetaminophen

Creator:: Sahajwalla, Chandrahas G.
Abstract:: Four different treatments of acetaminophen were administered to eight healthy volunteers in multiple doses (five doses). Saliva acetaminophen concentration-time profiles were determined. Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic parameters for the first and last dose were calculated and compared to determine whether acetaminophen exhibited linear or dose dependent pharmacokinetics. Dose corrected area under the...

Parental contributions to aspects of ethnic development among four- and seven-year-old Chinese-American children

Creator:: Lin, Kowhei Sophia
Abstract:: This study had two major purposes. The first focused upon understanding the development of aspects of ethnic development among 4- and 7-year-old Chinese-American boys and girls from immigrant and non-immigrant families. The second focused upon understanding the contribution of selected parental (fathers' and mothers') characteristics on aspects of children's ethnic...

Determination of structural layer properties of aggregate and asphalt surfaced roads

Creator:: Rwebangira, T.
Abstract:: This study involved the determination of the structural layer properties of aggregate and asphalt surfaced pavements for use in the evaluation of pavement load carrying capacity and the seasonal effects of moisture. This was achieved by the use of Nondestructive Testing Methods (NDT) and backcalculation techniques. Pavement surface deflection measurements...

Development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure for flexible pavements

Creator:: Zhou, Haiping
Abstract:: This dissertation describes the development of a mechanistic overlay design procedure. The mechanistic analysis represents a new trend in both new pavement and overlay design. The greatest advantage of the mechanistic pavement analysis is that it considers the fundamental characteristics of materials to be used, is capable of considering changes...
