The topic of this study is the cultural impact of the computer in a school. "Impact" is 'defined as the cultural consequences of intended and unintended learning that occur when computers are used in the school. The major theoretical orientations of the work include the concepts of manifest and latent...
Although the biological occurrence of 5'-methylthioadenosine
(MTA) and 5-methylthioribose (MTR) were recognized more than a half
century ago, very little light has been cast on the physiologic significance
of either substance. My studies were designed to extend
our knowledge of the metabolism of MTA and to determine if this pathway...
A dynamic approach to the Bayesian theory of sampling inspection
by attributes for the single sampling case is presented. A model is
developed which assumes a sequence of lots of equal known size and
lots generated by a process operating in a random manner. The model
also assumes constant associated...
The Willamette River Greenway Program was created by an act of the Oregon Legislature in 1968 and modified by a second act in 1973.
The purpose of the program was to protect the natural environment of the river from approximately the foot of the Cascade Range near Eugene, north to...
The purpose of this study was to determine and explain
attitudes toward intercollegiate athletics of undergraduate
students in three academic majors attending Oregon State
University.
The attitudes of a proportionate random sample
consisting of 215 students were measured according to their
responses to thirty-two Likert scale items containing six
sub-scale...
Refractory inclusions from Kaba (CV3) chondrite were studied by
instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) and electron probe
microanalysis (EPMA). The inclusions observed cover a wide range of
chemical patterns, mineral assemblages and textures, indicating the
complexity of early solar nebular conditions. The elemental
abundances normalized by Cl chondritic abundances vary...
Instrumental and radiochemical neutron activation analyses supported by electron microprobe mineral analyses (Paul Warren, University of New Mexico) and petrographic observations are presented for approximately forty individual clasts separated from the Kapoeta howardite. These clasts are classified into eucritic, cumulate-like, mafic (plagioclase ± olivine-bearing pyroxenites), pyroxenite, polymict and/or metal-rich and...
The Purpose of the Study:
The primary purpose of this study was to compare the clerical
office occupations teachers' and business employers' perceptions of
the competencies important for a high school graduate to possess for
an entry-level clerical office job in Oregon. A secondary purpose
was to determine the best...
