An investigation of the effects of feedback on variability and central tendency of group opinion while employing the Delphi technique

Creator:: Jones, Homer William
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of the Delphi Technique on two types of judgment; factual judgment and value judgment. Other considerations were the effect of the process on mean response and variability of response. In testing the Delphi Technique this study arrived at five definite...

The genetics of winterhardiness in barley : perspectives from genome-wide association mapping

Creator:: von Zitzewitz, Jarislav
Abstract:: Fall-planted barley makes the best use of available precipitation in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. This growth habit is also suitable to many other areas of the world. A prerequisite for production in most of these areas is tolerance of low temperature during the vegetative growth stages. Fall-planted...

Classifying seven dimensional manifolds of fixed cohomology type

Creator:: Montagantirud, Pongdate
Abstract:: Finding new examples of compact simply connected spaces admitting a Riemannian metric of positive sectional curvature is a fundamental problem in differential geometry. Likewise, studying topological properties of families of manifolds is very interesting to topologists. The Eschenburg spaces combine both of those interests: they are positively curved Riemannian manifolds...

Carnivore Competition: Spatial and Dietary Implications of Gray Wolf Recolonization for Cougars in Northeast Oregon

Creator:: Orning, Elizabeth Kari
Abstract:: After a 40-year absence from Oregon’s landscape, expanding gray wolf (Canis lupus) populations are reestablishing elements of interspecific competition with sympatric large carnivores, like cougars (Puma concolor). This presents new challenges for management of large carnivores and their ungulate prey populations (e.g., elk, Cervus canadensis nelsoni; mule deer, Odocoileus hemionus)...

Regulation of phospholipase C-beta isozymes by calmodulin

Creator:: McCullar, Jennifer Star
Abstract:: Phospholipase C-Jβ (PLCβ) is an important effector enzyme in G-protein-coupled signaling pathways. Activation of PLCβ by Gα and Gβy subunits has been fairly well characterized, but little is known about other protein interactions that may also regulate PLCβ function. A yeast two-hybrid screen of a mouse brain cDNA library with...

The effect of trials-to-criterion on the retention of a discrete motor skill by moderately retarded and severely mentally retarded individuals

Creator:: Morehouse, James Wesley
Abstract:: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of trials-to-criterion on the retention of a discrete motor skill (overhand beanbag throw) by moderately mentally retarded and severely mentally retarded individuals. Nonmentally retarded individuals were involved as a control group. The subjects were grouped by degree of retardation and...

Identification of reading and study skills related to academic success in each of ten schools at Oregon State University

Creator:: Haselton, Shirley Schantz
Abstract:: Purpose of the Study: The purpose of this study was to identify essential reading and study skills for academic success in each of the schools at Oregon State University. Further, this study related faculty perception of specific skills and scores of subjects who were tested in these skills. The study...

Environmental Variables and Gene Expression Profiles Associated with Cueing Reproductive Events in Cnidarians

Creator:: Crowder, Camerron M.
Abstract:: Coral reproduction is vital to the persistence of coral reefs. Decades of ecological studies have correlated environmental variables, such as temperature and light, to the timing of reproduction in anthozoan cnidarians, including corals and sea anemones. However, elevated temperatures associated with climate change impair reproductive success and threaten the resilience...

Transdermal Delivery of Atenolol to Cats

Creator:: Mohamed, Sumeia M.
Abstract:: This thesis describes in-vitro and in-vivo evaluation of a transdermal atenolol formulation developed at Oregon State University, College of Pharmacy. The formulation was prepared from carbomer as a gel base with propylene glycol, glycerol, ethanol, polysorbate 80 and dimethyl-isosorbide (DMI) as mixture of penetration enhancing agents. The effect of the...
