The theoretical characteristics of space-charge-limited
currents in solids are reviewed, and a survey of
suitable dielectric materials and experimental space-charge-limited devices is presented.
The properties of the gold-silicon contact as used
in space-charge-limited devices were experimentally investigated.
It was found that the observed characteristics
could be explained on the basis...
In this study I discuss the state of Free-Choice Learning research, and an investigation into the use of personal ubiquitous technology on visitors' experiences at a science center. The three manuscripts included in this document:
1. Review published research on free-choice learning from 1997-2007 from selected journals
2. Examine visitors'...
The environmental movement needs people from communities of color and the differing perspectives they provide.

to the growing numbers of men, women, and children
who live with the consequences of economic decisions
made at dissolution. The purpose of this study
was to provide data on the economic aspects of divorce
in Oregon after ten or more...
Data visualizations designed for academic scientists are not immediately meaningful to everyday scientists. Communicating between a specialized, expert audience and a general, novice public is non-trivial; it requires careful translation. However, more widely available visualization technologies and platforms, including new three-dimensional spherical display systems in schools and informal science education...
Zoos, aquariums and other free-choice/informal education settings offer the public opportunities to interact with live animals in exhibits through animal encounters and/or touch experiences designed to carry a conservation mission. Many of these institutions are accredited by the American Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the World Association of...
The Pacific Northwest has become one of the nation’s premier sweet cherry,
Prunus avium, production areas. As production of sweet cherries has flourished in
Oregon and Washington, so has powdery mildew, caused by the fungus
Podosphaera clandestina, which infects both foliage and fruit causing severe
economic damage to growers. Sweet...
Samples of pre-rigor sternomandibularis muscle from ten
steers were pressurized at 15,000 psi for two min at 35°C to investigate
the effects of pressurization and incubation time on
the thermal stability of collagen. Immediately after pressurization,
pH of the treated samples (pH 5.71) was significantly lower
(P < 0.05) than...
The purpose of this investigation was to ascertain if there are
differences in attitudes among married males, married females,
single males, and single females toward 11 attitudinal variables.
More specifically the study focused on the impact of the college
environment on married students.
The students who participated in the study...
The purpose of this study was to compare the changes in the
perception of the university environment that occurred in four selected
.groups of freshmen residence hall students: females residents in
single-sex halls (N = 150), female residents in coeducational halls
(N = 89), male residents in single-sex halls (N...
