A study of judicious discipline : a constitutional perspective for school rules and decisions and its effect on the school-related attitudes of students

Creator:: Bolden, Robert A.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine if students' school-related attitudes are significantly affected by teacher classroom discipline management based upon concepts contained in Judicious Discipline: A Constitutional Perspective for School Rules (Gathercoal, 1986). The data relative to student school-related attitudes of elementary, middle, and high school students toward...

Robert Hooke and the foundation of geology : a comparison of Steno and Hooke and the Hooke imprint on the Huttonian theory ; and, The tectonic evolution of the Oregon continental margin : rotation of segment boundaries and possible spacetime relationships in the Central High Cascades

Creator:: Drake, Ellen T.
Abstract:: Based on the principle that the history of a discipline is important to the discipline itself, this thesis devotes two chapters to ROBERT HOOKE AND THE FOUNDATION OF GEOLOGY and two chapters to modern geology, viz. THE TECTONIC EVOLUTION OF THE OREGON CONTINENTAL MARGIN. The first part of this abstract...

Biomass and community structure of sporocarps formed by hypogeous ectomycorrhizal fungi within selected forest habitats of the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon

Creator:: Luoma, Daniel L.
Abstract:: This study characterizes the production of hypogeous sporocarps (broadly referred to as truffles) by ectomycorrhizal fungi within Douglas-fir dominated forests that are considered typical of those found on the west slopes of the central Cascade mountains in Oregon. Three aspects of sporocarp production are addressed: 1) the distribution of total...

Energetics and mechanics of swing phase during terrestrial locomotion

Creator:: Nelson, Frank E.
Abstract:: Previous attempts to understand the factors affecting the energetic cost of locomotion have found a direct link between the energetic cost and the mechanical work done during periods when the limb is in contact with the ground. However, when the limb is not in contact with the ground during the...

The development of the chlorinity-salinity concept in oceanography

Creator:: Wallace, William J.
Abstract:: This study traces the historical foundations of the concept of constant ionic proportionality and the equation (Salinity [S%₀] = 1.805 Chlorinity [Cl%₀] + 0.030) which has been in general use in oceanography since 1902 until 1969 and which is based upon this constancy, The notion that the constituents present in...

Inheritance of resistance in some wheat introductions to selected races of bunt, Tilletia caries (DC) Tul and Tilletia foetida (Wallr) Liro

Creator:: Abdalla, Osman S.
Abstract:: Bunt or stinking smut is a major disease of wheat. In the U.S. common bunt, Tilletia caries (DC) Tul. and T. foetida (Wallr) Liro, is a threat to wheat production in the Pacific Northwest. Screening trials conducted by USDA Cereal Investigations Project in Oregon, from 1955-1980, revealed that a number...
