Context matters : assembly and disorder in the regulation of multivalent complexes

Creator:: Jara, Kayla A.
Abstract:: Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs), protein regions (IDRs), and protein complexes continue to emerge at the forefront of protein science. Proteins and protein regions lacking specific structure are found in all organisms, and often have vital roles in numerous biological processes. Breaking the well-known structure-function paradigm, the understanding of disorder-based functionality...

Developing self-efficacy and self-regulated learning in academic planning : applying social cognitive theory in academic advising to assess student learning outcomes

Creator:: Erlich, Richard J.
Abstract:: This dissertation demonstrates how Social Cognitive Theory (Bandura, 1986, 1997) can be successfully applied to Counselor academic advising interventions, in order to increase students' self-efficacy and self-regulated learning (Zimmerman, 2000) in academic planning as learned outcomes. This was accomplished by (a) reviewing the academic advising literature and showing the current...

Profiles of Children’s Cognitive Self-Regulation Around the Transition to School

Creator:: Miao, Alicia J.
Abstract:: Cognitive self-regulation and the behavioral manifestations of cognitive self-regulation are important aspects of school readiness, yet less is known about the variation in measurement modalities within children. In this dissertation, two studies examined the makeup, antecedents, and consequents of constellations of cognitive self-regulation (CSR) measures around the transition to formal...

An analysis of the population dynamics of selected avian species

Creator:: Henny, Charles J.
Abstract:: The impact that pesticides may have had on the mortality rates and productivity rates of non-game birds during the last 25 years was evaluated by studying the population dynamics of 16 species. A mathematical model showing the relationships between population parameters that yielded stable populations was developed. The information needed...

What's romance got to do with it? Sexual health outcomes of relationship dynamics among urban African American adolescents

Creator:: Towner, Senna Lee
Abstract:: Urban African American adolescents exhibit high levels of risk behavior, disproportionately high rates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and are at risk for acquiring Human Immunodefiency Virus (HIV). To date, interventions that address the high rates of STIs in this population demonstrate only moderate efficacy. As researchers strive to develop...

Examining the Contribution of Self-Regulation and Executive Function Skills to School Readiness and Longer-Term Achievement Gaps: A Replication and Extension in Statewide and National Datasets

Creator:: Finders, Jennifer K.
Abstract:: Self-regulation in early childhood encompasses higher-order executive function processes and lower-order emotional responses that enable children to navigate the classroom environment. Although self-regulation and executive functions are overlapping constructs, self-regulation represents a broad assessment of children’s ability to call upon executive function processes in order to meet contextual demands. Prior...

Development of Micellar and Nanoparticle Structures based on Polyester Diblock Copolymer Platform for the Treatment of Metastatic Tumors

Creator:: Doddapaneni, Bhuvana S.
Abstract:: Poor aqueous solubility of a large number of newly discovered chemical entities is posing a significant challenge for the formulation industry and is delaying their drug development. The number of formulation techniques available to solubilize these poorly soluble molecules is very limited. In addition to that, traditional formulation methods involve...

White principals examine power, privilege, and identity : the challenge of leading for equity

Creator:: McCann, Julie McLaughlin
Abstract:: The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine the experience of white principals in understanding their white identity, privilege, and power as they worked to implement socially-just and culturally proficient schools. The findings offer insights into the following questions: 1) How do white school leaders view white identity and...

Displacement-based fluorescent microRNA biosensors : design principles and analytical metrics

Creator:: Larkey, Nicholas E.
Abstract:: One post-transcriptional mechanism that regulates the progression of cancer and other diseases involves small 22-23 nucleotide sequences called microRNA (miR). Early detection of small changes in concentration of these biomarkers holds potential to diagnose diseases at their earliest stages. Use of current nucleic-acid based biosensors, like molecular beacons, for in...

Harnessing Heterogeneity in Human Gut Microbiome Data

Creator:: Tataru, Christine
Abstract:: The focus of this thesis is to design, characterize, and apply novel computational methods and molecular systems to interrogate heterogeneous human gut microbiome-related phenomena. In Chapter 2, I design, implement, and characterize a method for embedding co-occurrence patterns derived from massive 16s amplicon datasets. I use this method to 1....
