The purpose of this study was to examine the relativeeffectiveness of functional isometric squats on thedevelopment of dynamic strength, static strength and powerof college males. Ten college males volunteered for thestudy. The subjects trained two days per week for a totalof eight weeks which consisted of a two week preconditioningperiod...
I examined, in three separate studies, the active chromatin
structure of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Yeast contains four proteins having amino acid compositions
typical of the high mobility group (HMG) proteins. Three of these
are eluted from chromatin by 0.35 M NaCl; one is not, but is eluted
by 0.25...
I have investigated nucleoprotein organization in
chromatin of the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. My
approach has been to prepare insoluble, minimally per
turbed chromatin from a mitochondrial DNA-free strain of
yeast, using a number of new techniques, and then digest
this substrate with micrococcal nuclease. The soluble
products are electrophoresed on...
Biorhythm theory proponents believe that humans have
a 23-day physical cycle, a 28-day emotional cycle, and a
33-day intellectual cycle. According to biorhythm theories
a person in the positive portion of any single cycle, the performance potential is enhanced for those tasks related to
that particular rhythm. When each cycle...
Purpose: The general problem was to determine the relationship between biorhythms and injuries to college football participants representing Oregon State University. Procedures: The population consisted of one hundred and ninty two football players representing Oregon State University who participated in the intercollegiate football seasons of 1981 and 1982. Injury data...
Composition and structure of Oregon ash
(Fraxinus latifolia) woodlands in the William L. Finley
National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon are described. Twenty
stands dominated by Fraxinus latifolia were sampled with
500 m2 circular macroplots in which floristic microplot
data were collected for plant community synthesis. Plant
communities were identified by computer-assisted...
Ninety-two physicians from six different medical specialty
areas were participants in an opinion survey concerning corporate
executive fitness. The survey was comprised of 21 statements
related to such areas as fitness, nutrition, implementation
of specific programs and cost effectiveness. Descriptive
research methods were utilized to analyze results.
Physicians surveyed were...
Level of aspiration plays a part in achievement motivation which
supports teaching/learning in motor performances. In the past,
females reported poorer ability in performances, set lower levels of
aspiration, and had lesser achievement motives than males (Crandall,
1969; Stein & Bailey, 1973; Sumner & Johnson, 1949). Some researchers
found there...
The purpose of this study was to examine how accurate classroom
teachers' observations are for identifying high and low motor
performances.
In order to assess teacher accuracy in rating motor performance,
an analysis was conducted on students' scores on the Short Form of
the Bruininks - Oseretsky Test of Motor...
The purpose of the study was to analyze the effect
of experimenter delivered and microcomputer delivered
knowledge of results on the response speed of nonretarded
and mentally retarded public school students. Response
speed was measured for 63 nonretarded students and 63
mentally retarded students. Subjects were randomly
assigned to conditions...
