The Altruism-Empathy-Perspective Connection: A Case Study of Human-Wildlife Interactions at Chintimini Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:: Freed, Kirsten S.
Abstract:: In the realms of psychology and sociology two new theoretical models have arisen to describe the forces influencing altruistic human behavior. The first is the Empathy-Altruism Hypothesis (EAH), by C.D. Batson. The second is the Conceptual Continuum of Altruism (CCA), by K.R. Monroe. Both models have proven to be highly...

Evaluating the Toxicity of Organophosphate Flame Retardants in Zebrafish

Creator:: Britsch, Kimberly A.
Abstract:: Flame retardants are in many home products including couches, chairs, and electronics. The most commonly used flame retardants contained polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) until 2004, when the majority of these chemicals were phased out. PBDEs were found to be persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic to both humans and the environment. Organophosphate...

Introduction of a Mathematical Model to Characterize Relative Risk of Snakebite Envenoming, a Neglected Tropical Disease

Creator:: Kim, Soyeon
Abstract:: Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease that has received increased research attention in the past few years. However, snakebite prevalence and impact in India has been a neglected area of study, despite the high disease burden in this region. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches to studying snakebite processes are...

Analysis, design, and implementation of a Formula SAE cooling system

Creator:: Theroff, Zachary
Abstract:: This project consists of the analysis, design, and manufacturing of the 2016 cooling system for Global Formula Racing’s combustion vehicle. Several water configurations were examined, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to estimate airflow and heat transfer calculations in MATLAB to estimate heat rejection through each concept. Data used to perform...

Adaptation of a Self-Implemented HIV Test Among Adolescent Youth in Tanzania

Creator:: Huun, Cassidy
Abstract:: HIV testing among high risk adolescents in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania is challenging due to poor access to test sites and AIDS-related social stigma. We adapted the OraQuick HIV Test, a self-implemented test (SIT), for low literacy youth with no internet access. To compensate for poor literacy, a picture instruction...

Analyzing the use of the acellular DCFH assay as a means of determining oxidative stress induced in zebrafish embryos exposed to lanthanide oxide nanoparticles

Creator:: Engstrom, Arek
Abstract:: The ability of nanoparticles (NPs) to induce oxidative stress on organisms has been linked to NP cytotoxicity and genotoxicity for a variety of organisms. One proposed mechanism of this increased oxidative stress is the ability of NPs to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). Due to the dynamic nature and small...

Innovating Feature Selection in Data Science

Creator:: Rubocki, Nikita
Abstract:: Data science is a rapidly growing industry permeating throughout every aspect of society. Everything collects data these days, and people use this data to find meaningful patterns leading to benefits ranging from more intuitive marketing to better cancer detection. However, increased data collection also leads to increased complexity, and data...

Modifications of Homes for the Comfort of Arthritis Sufferers

Creator:: Wenning, Stephanie E.
Abstract:: This study explores the awareness of features in homes that could potentially improve the quality of life for those with arthritis. Little research has been published on the subject of home modifications for arthritis sufferers. For this study, several features for the home were identified as potentially helpful in the...

Effects of Marine Reserves on Populations of Herbivorous and Piscivorous Fisheson the Great Barrier Reef

Creator:: Polis, Hilary J.
Abstract:: he Great Barrier Reef Marine Park is widely known as one of the best-managed marine protected areas in the world. The park is divided into different management zones, the most prevalent of which are marine national park zones, which are designated as no-take, and conservation zones in which some regulated...
