    One answer to the problem of missing observations in two-way classification experiments is to insert estimates of missing observations into deficient cells. Once missing observations have been estimated, the experimenter may proceed with his analysis using the familiar normal equations which apply to complete data. This paper discusses generally the...

  • Toward a more ethical engineering : four habits of highly ethical engineering practice

    Creator:

    Abstract:
    In this thesis, I conduct an analysis of paradigmatic background assumptions deployed in engineering decision-making processes, in order to understand how these assumptions, operating tacitly and in tension with each other, contribute to decisions that are ethically less effective and less substantial than they would otherwise be. I do so...

  • Piers Plowman, Healthcare Praxis, and the Corporal Mercies

    Creator:
    MacDougall, Eric W.
    Abstract:
    I argue that Matthew’s seven acts of corporal mercies provide a means of reading Piers Plowman within a framework familiar to medieval audiences, but also exposes the different models of health that are at work within the poem and the soteriological significance of these healths. In chapter one, I focus...

  • A feminist love story : the cinematic possibilities of Shakespeare's Juliet

    Creator:
    Faherty, Dionna E.
    Abstract:
    Literary and feminist theory have recently begun to recognize William Shakespeare's character of Juliet as a possible feminist heroine, but communicating this interpretation on film will be complicated. Not only will the film need to deal with the issues of adaptation that come with moving any play onto film, but...
