The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationships
among satisfaction with clothing, satisfaction with physical appearance,
concern over weight, self-esteem, and participation in leisure-time
activities among a sample of full-time homemakers.
To test these relationships, five measures were used. Satisfaction
with clothing was measured by comparing the actual...
Site formation processes at Ayia Varvara Asprokremnos, a potentially early Neolithic archaeological site on Cyprus, are examined in order to build a larger predictive model. The study area immediate to the site encompasses 6.33 hectares and includes the site and alluvial terraces on both sides of the Gialias River. Fourteen...
Ragay Gulf and Burias Pass are among the traditional fishing grounds of the
country being considered by the government for an integrated approach to fishery
management (Smith, et al., 1980; Samson, et al., 1977, World Bank, 1976). The
Department of Marine Fisheries, College of Fisheries, University of the Philippines in...
The gamma contribution to reactor afterheat
depends on gamma energy since high-energy commas are
more likely to escape from tilt. fuel. The objective of
this work is to investigate the gamma-energy spectrum
of a pure U-235 fission reactor.
Fission-product nuclides are first listed in order'
of importance as contributors to...
There is a fundamental distortion in our understanding of Native people, especially Native women. This distortion is rooted in imperialism and the colonization of Native lands and has created a dominant/subordinate relationship between Non-Native/Native people. Anthropological life history research has traditionally reflected this relationship. As a Native woman, the author...
This thesis is a collection of three short stories and the
beginnings of a novel. A similar thread is woven through all the
stories: in the attempt to know spiritual truth, what it is to be a
woman, and to know themselves, the various protagonists precariously
oscillate between the seemingly...
Dashiell Hammett's fiction and detective pulps generally, offered the reader a chance to participate in vicarious power, by giving them a sense of the profession of detection, both in and out of the stories. It was the realism of the detective figure that allowed the audience to relate to him....
In June 1999, I was a volunteer for a United States non-governmental organization, Crossroads Africa. I joined six other American women traveling to Ghana, West Africa to participate in a collaborative program designed by the Ghana Red Cross Society and Crossroads Africa. Specifically our group was assigned to work on...
The study of water movement in unsaturated soils by using appropriate
diffusion equations has attracted considerable attention in
recent years.
In this study, a numerical technique is developed for solving
a generalized, dimensionless diffusion equation by the use of a digital.
computer. Diffusivity and capillary conductivity equations derived
by Brooks...
Electrical resistivity and thermoelectric power measurements
have been made over the temperature range of 450° to 600°C on
n-type liquid thalliurn-tellurium solutions. Liquids with compositions
from 61.5 to 72.0 atomic percent thallium were studied. In addition,
alloys of some of the three component thallium-teIlurium solutions
containing small amounts of silver,...
This archaeological based research uses ceramics in the study of acculturation from a site excavated by an urban archaeology contract firm, and utilizes the theories of consumer choice, ethnicity and acculturation. Artifact analysis took place in the form of minimum vessel counts, artifact relative frequencies, and Chinese artifact values, as...
