The purpose of this study was to investigate the interrelationships
between loneliness, college academic achievement, and locus of
control. The sample consisted of 97 subjects who were randomly selected
from those students living in the residence hall system at Oregon
State University.
Five null hypotheses were tested:
1. There is...
Prothoracicotropic hormone has been partially purified
from whole heads of tobacco hornworm larvae, Manduca sexta.
Activity was followed with a larval bioassay. Activity was
purified 4400 fold from crude extracts. The hormone was
found to be a heat-stable polypeptide with an approximate
molecular weight of 25,000 Daltons. The hormone has...
Implementation of. the Fishery Conservation and Management Act of
1976 affords opportunities for fishery expansion and economic development
in the Oregon otter trawl fishery. The changes stimulated by the
Act should occur, according to social science theorists, by the
diffusion of innovations from innovative fishermen to less innovative
fishermen, with...
The major problem examined in this study was that of
determining whether or not there is any relationship between
student ratings of instruction in the community college
university transfer area and the professional teacher-training
backgrounds of instructors. In addition, several
other factors which may influence ratings and which might
interact...
Oregon's Special Farm Use Assessment program is investigated
in this paper for its effectiveness in preserving farmland from urban
sprawl. Basic research for this study was conducted in Jefferson
County, a rural central Oregon county. Data from a similar study conducted
in Washington County, an urbanizing northern Willamette Valley
county,...
Submarine hydrothermal systems provide all of the
conditions necessary for the abiotic synthesis of organic
compounds, polymers, and simple cell-like organisms. An
analysis of the Archaean rock and fossil record shows that
fossils of simple organisms are found in rocks deposited in hydrothermal environments. Biochemical experiments have
shown that thermal...
