Tests using paired pens of barrows were conducted during a 13 month
period to determine the influence of protein level of the ration on
production traits of market barrows. One member of each pair of six to
ten full- and half-sib pairs was randomly allotted to each pen group;
thus,...
Daily and seasonal habitat use by Roosevelt elk was investigated
in the Oregon Coast Range on managed, public forestland. Over 3,700
locations of 6 radio-collared cow elk were recorded during 12 consecutive
months. Two elk formed part of a north band and 4 elk were
part of a south band....
This study provides an empirical test of the Bockstael-McConnell
(1980) household production function (HPF) framework for evaluating wildlife recreation. This is perhaps the first study in which
both taste and technology parameters have been estimated with a
theoretical model specification. The results suggest that for
steelhead sport fishing in Oregon,...
The central purpose of this study was to examine physicians' knowledge of and attitudes toward hearing aids. This study was conducted with 71 general practitioners affiliated with Scarborough General Hospital in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada.
Attitude was measured by a 5-point Likert-type scale developed for the study. Knowledge was measured through...
"The general objective of research . . . was to determine mechanisms that control the production dynamics of benthic plants and associated epiphytes in Netarts Bay relative to physical processes and changing patterns of nutrient distribution. . ."
The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the interactive effects of locus of control and instructional method on perceived self-efficacy with computers. The two instructional methods in this
experiment were intended to represent variations in the amount of control over the lesson that students
would have, the amount of...
During the W7711A cruise, from November 5 through November
13, 1977, a series of measurements were made on the hydrography, suspended particulate matter (spm), nutrients, first and second trophic level biomasses, primary productivity and zooplankton species for the purpose of gaining concurrent winter time information on these parameters. The cruise...
