Balanced codes, in which each codeword contains equally many 1's and 0's, are useful in such applications as in optical transmission and optical recording. When balanced codes are used, the same number of 1's and 0's pass through the channel after the transmission of every word, so the channel is...
This study's purpose was to provide data on major
inhibitory factors experienced by a third of Oregon high
school English teachers in areas of: attitudes, behaviors,
and physical and emotional effects of theme assessment.
Methods employed two analyses: (1) statistical testing
of the independent variable of teaching experience (1 to...
The objective of this study is to assess the quantitative
genetic structure of fitness characters in Tribolium confusum
flour beetles. Estimates of genetic variation and covariation for a
series of fitness components (two measurements of survival,
larval weight, development time, fecundity, and female
productivity) were obtained from two populations of...
Martin Buber was an internationally known scholar,
teacher, and author whose works covered education, communication,
politics, theology, philosophy, counseling,
and related fields. The purpose of this study was to
discover the implications of Buber's philosophy of education
for the student services profession. Previous
attempts to relate Martin Buber's philosophy to...
Control charts are designed to monitor population parameters. Selection of a
control chart sampling plan involves determination of the frequency of samples, size
of each sample, and critical values to determine when the system is sending an out-of-control signal. Since the main use of control charts is in industry, a...
The adenovirus replication origins reside in the inverted terminal
repetition (ITR) sequences. Replication proceeds unidirectionally by a
strand-displacement mechanism from either or both origins to produce
duplex daughter DNA plus a displaced parental strand. The displaced
strand can be duplicated by two different routes. The cis pathway involves
intramolecular hybridization...
The peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (PTBR) of trout brain was
pharmacologically characterized and pyrethroid interaction with this site
investigated. High-affinity binding sites for [³H]PK 11195 were detected in brain
membranes of rainbow trout; these shared some of the characteristics of the
PTBR of rodent brain (i.e., high affinity for PK 11195...
The CARS apparatus at OSU was modified to permit studies in the 0-500 cm⁻¹ spectral region. The new low frequency capabilities were then used to study molecular clusters formed in free expansion jets of carbon dioxide. A strong cluster band was observed at 73 cm⁻¹, with a weaker shoulder at...
