Short-term Changes in Objectively Assessed Step-defined Physical Activity in The Wave~Ripples for Change: Obesity Prevention in Active Youth Study

Creator:: Le, Kevin and Schuna, John M., Jr.
Abstract:: The WAVE study is an on-going multicomponent comparative-effectiveness trial aimed at improving nutritional habits, increasing habitual physical activity, and preventing unhealthy changes in body composition among active 14-19 year-old adolescents. Participants were recruited through soccer teams from 13 schools and enrolled in one of two conditions: 1) a novel and...

Predicting Vulnerabilities in the Free Open Source Software Ecosystem

Creator:: Phillips, Elsie
Abstract:: Due to the interdependent nature of Free Open Source Software projects, a vulnerability in just one highly used project can have significant and sweeping consequences across many projects, and can inflict hundreds of millions of dollars in damage. This paper proposes a model for predicting software vulnerabilities in highly used...

Streambed scour and redeposition behavior in streambed simulated culverts over an annual period

Creator:: Stewart, Anna
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to provide first order observations of bed level changes occurring in streambed simulated culverts throughout an annual period. To accomplish this, 30 culvert sites were selected in Oregon and Washington, and monitored over, at least, a 2 year period. Streambed scour and redeposition data...

Nonmedical prescription stimulant use: exploring student perceptions and university response

Creator:: Foss, Austyn
Abstract:: This thesis explores trends and perceptions surrounding nonmedical use of prescription stimulants by university students throughout the United States. Furthermore, this study evaluated how universities in Oregon have responded to increased rates of nonmedical prescription stimulant use on campuses across the country. The following research questions are addressed: 1) What...

The Effects of Rapamycin on the Unfolded Protein Response in Relation to Healthy Aging

Creator:: Zhao, Stephanie Anne
Abstract:: The loss of proteostasis is the mechanism for maintaining properly folded proteins and degrading misfolded ones. One protective mechanism against loss of proteostasis is the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR), a chaperone mediated folding system in the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER). The UPR communicates with the Nrf2 pathway, a transcription factor, and...

A Novel Apparatus for Measuring the Interfacial Shear Rheology of Biofilms while Measuring the Concentration of Redox Species in the Growth Media

Creator:: Gahan, Curran G.
Abstract:: This project discuses the design of a novel apparatus for measuring the interfacial rheological properties of a complex interface while measuring the concentration of redox species within the sub-phase. Preliminary measurements made using the apparatus are also presented. The objective of the preliminary experimentation was to simultaneously measure the interfacial...

Numerical investigation of aggregate trench-reinforced clay ground improvement to increase bearing capacity of continuous strip foundations

Creator:: Walter, Jakob R.
Abstract:: Compacted aggregate trenches are a method of soil improvement that could be substituted for commonly used aggregate piers in certain geometrical arrangements of shallow foundations. However, this type of ground improvement has little research to support the understanding of their contribution to improved strength of an unimproved clay soil. This...

Substance Use and Imagery In Hip Hop, R&B, and Popular YouTube Music Videos

Creator:: Chac, Christina L., Stapleton, Angie, Seifert, Jessica, and Sakuma, Kari-Lyn K.
Abstract:: Background: There are over four billion YouTube views per day with “music” the most searched topic. Among US internet users, 8.3 million YouTube users are under 18 years old. Incorporation of substance use imagery in YouTube videos has a considerable potential influence on young viewing audience behavior. This study identifies...

Drifting Identity Formation : A Disaggregation of Indo-Fijian Ethnic Labels

Creator:: Coulson, Danika and Barnd, Natchee
Abstract:: Approximately 37.6% of Fiji’s population is comprised of individuals that have Indian descent (2007 census). This is primarily due to the recruitment of Indian indentured servants to work on the sugar plantations of Fiji during British colonial rule in the 1880s. Many descendants of these servants have since moved to...

Everything in Moderation : A Study of the Effects of Alcohol Consumption on Health from Local and International Perspectives

Creator:: Wardzala, Casia Lynn
Abstract:: The consumption of alcohol has been shown to have effects on health that are both harmful and therapeutic, depending on the amount that is consumed. Alcohol’s effects can be damaging to the body in excess but, in moderation, can act as a protectant against certain conditions. The two studies discussed...
