Effect of Focus of Attention on Rate of Torque Development in the Knee Extensors

Creator:: Kiff, Adam B.
Abstract:: Background: The ability to produce rapid muscle force and joint torque is important for performance in sports, injury prevention and rehabilitation, and balance recovery. One way to measure rapid torque production is rate of torque development (RTD), which is the slope of the torque-time curve. Interventions aimed at increasing RTD...

The Effects of Exhaustive Exercise on ACL Injury Risk

Creator:: Asplund, Christopher
Abstract:: Background: Certain knee movements place the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) at risk of injury. These injuries commonly affect athletes especially at the end of events. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of exhaustive exercise on frontal plane hip and knee mechanics during two tasks in order...

The lag–luminosity correlation in time-resolved episodes of long gamma-ray bursts

Creator:: Kowash, Samuel J.
Abstract:: We present an analysis of the relationship between spectral lag and luminosity in time-resolved segments of long gamma-ray bursts detected by BATSE, an experiment aboard the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory satellite. For full bursts, there is a well-established correlation between the lag, which is easily computed, and the total burst...

Chemistry and Grit: The Impact of Prerequisites vs Perseverance on Academic Success in Biology

Creator:: Sparks, Kiersten E.
Abstract:: Previous research on academic success in biology has focused on the influence of prerequisite knowledge and cognitive ability as measured by course grades or GPA. More recently, the field has considered the influence of non-cognitive factors such as grit, defined as passion and perseverance for long term goals. Both grit...

The Influence of Player Age on Club Soccer Coaches’ Perceptions of Injury Risk and Lower Extremity Injury Prevention Program Use

Creator:: Morgan, Elle Alexa
Abstract:: Background: The use of a lower extremity injury prevention program (IPP) by female athletes before the completion of puberty may mitigate movement changes that develop during puberty and contribute to greater injury risk. It is unknown whether player age influences coaches’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors surrounding IPPs. Methods: Fifty-four female...

Pediatric Physical Therapists’ Perceptions of Caregivers’ Attitudes Toward Powered Mobility for Children with Disabilities

Creator:: Cafferata, Christina A.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to understand current caregiver attitudes towards powered mobility devices for young children with disabilities. This data was obtained by collecting surveys from pediatric physical therapists who interact with many caregivers on a daily basis and often act as the bridge between families and access...

Controlled Orientation of Engineered Carbonic Anhydrase on a Surface : A Model for Protein Immobilization for Biosensors and Biomaterials

Creator:: Brown, Wesley
Abstract:: Current protein immobilization techniques lack defined control over protein orientation. Protein orientation is important for making biosensors and biomaterials that are sensitive and efficient and can be crucial for designing some devices such as immunosensors or direct electron transferring biocells. A new method of protein immobilization is proposed that takes...

Organic Semiconductors : Incorporating Xylindein into (Opto)Electronic Devices

Creator:: Rath, Jeremy J.
Abstract:: This research investigates the electronic properties of a fungi-derived pigment, xylindein as a novel sustainable material for organic electronics. Xylindein molecules were characterized in solution and in film. Absorption spectra and (photo)luminescence spectra were taken at various excitation wavelengths. Xylindein’s molecular properties were computed with the Gaussian 09 software suite....

Effects of Long-term Use of Ankle Taping on Balance

Creator:: McGregor, Stephanie
Abstract:: Regular ankle taping is commonly used to prevent ankle sprains, but the effects of its long-term use are not fully understood. This study examined the effects of ankle taping on balance in athletes who regularly tape their ankles versus those who do not. Fourteen collegiate gymnasts’ ability to balance on...
