"I'm a Mom too!" - Stigma, Support & Contested Identities among Adolescent Mothers in the United States

Creator:: Everson, Courtney L.
Abstract:: This dissertation aims to provide a comprehensive portrayal of doula care in the lives of pregnant and parenting adolescent mothers. The purpose of this research was to examine the relationships between psychosocial stress, social support, institutionalized constraints, and their impacts on health and well-being among adolescent mothers in the Northwestern...

Science inquiry as knowledge transformation : investigating metacognitive and self-regulation strategies to assist students in writing about scientific inquiry tasks

Creator:: Collins, Timothy A.
Abstract:: Science inquiry is central to the science education reform efforts that began in the early 1990's. It is both a topic of instruction and a process to be experienced. Student engagement in the process of scientific inquiry was the focus of this study. The process of scientific inquiry can be...

A relationship between wave dispersion and fracture strength for a composite material

Creator:: Ilcewicz, Larry Bert
Abstract:: Wave dispersion and fracture are phenomena that involve. mechanisms triggered at the scale of a material's internal structure. Experiments were performed with a candidate material to judge the hypothesis that wave dispersion measurements can be used to nondestructively predict fracture strength. Wood-based particleboard was chosen as the candidate material because...

Dynamic mathematical model of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange between soil and atmosphere

Creator:: Ou-yang, Ying
Abstract:: Gaseous transport through soil in the presence of soil microorganisms has been investigated. More recently, modeling of gaseous transport in the unsaturated zone has been investigated. However, the problem of mathematical model of oxygen and carbon dioxide transport through soil, as affected by the climatic conditions, the transport of soil...

The judgment policy used by community college administrators in judging the success potential of male and female administrative applicants

Creator:: Pilato, Angelica Rita
Abstract:: The main focus of this study was to determine how community college administrators used certain personality traits (cues) in judging the success potential of female and male administrative applicants. The following hypotheses were tested: 1. There will be no significant difference in the weights attached to the following cues when...

Qualitative Perspective of Student Success by First Generation Students Participating in Developmental Education Programs

Creator:: Esparza, Edward
Abstract:: This literature seeks to broadly examine historical literature and information pertaining to developmental education in the community colleges and its relationship with the college success. Contextually, the review will examine factors that affect student perception to academic success while being required to participate in remedial course work. Although issues surrounding...

Simulation and field validation of heat and water flow during soil freezing and thawing

Creator:: Pikul, Joseph Lawrence
Abstract:: Freeze/thaw cycles are numerous in agricultural soils of the Pacific Northwest. Potential loss of soil by erosion is high whenever a soil thaws from the surface creating a saturated soil overlying an impermeable frozen layer. Field studies were conducted to investigate the effect of surface residue on soil freezing. Residue...

Diffusion and surface reaction processes of absorption on surfaces of soil particles in unsaturated soils

Creator:: Yingjajaval, Suntaree
Abstract:: At present the adsorption kinetic of ions by soil particles is considered to be a surface reaction. When the transport of solutes in soils is described using the one-dimensional flow equation, it becomes a serious problem that lateral diffusion of ions from the bulk solution towards the soil surfaces is...

Motivation and engagement in school among immigrant Latino middle school students

Creator:: Knudson-Martin, John
Abstract:: This study investigated how a minority population of Latino/a immigrant children attending a middle school in the Pacific Northwest made sense of engaging with school and school mathematics. A cross disciplinary theoretical framework was used to examine how individual student motivation is impacted by the social context in which the...
