This investigation was designed to investigate the use of an answer-until-correct procedure on multiple-choice quizzes in an independent study mathematics course. This procedure was compared to the standard multiple-choice procedure with respect to student achievement, student anxiety, and test reliability. Using the answer-until-correct procedure students were made immediately aware of...
The purpose of this investigation was to obtain a broad view of the development
and structure of the program of college education conducted at the Oregon
State Penitentiary (OSP) in Salem, Oregon to arrive at a means to explicate program
effectiveness. This research problem encompassed the compilation and interpretation

This monograph gives a brief biography of Grace McCormac French (1881- 1957), who was the "Bird Woman" of the Carlton and Dayton area in Yamhill County from about 1925 to her death. She wrote articles for newspapers, gave talks on radio stations, and spoke at many clubs about birds and...
Throughout this chapter I argue that universities in the U.S are not doing their part in creating programs that include people with intellectual disabilities. This chapter aims to uncover why there is such low representation of people with intellectual disabilities attending. higher education in the U.S through exploration of the...
Rapid change-of-direction tasks have been associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and females are more likely to suffer this injury compared to males. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of running and three rapid change-of-direction tasks and determine whether sex differences exist across...
We assimilate localized mass anomalies inferred from
GRACE ranging measurements into a hydrodynamic model
to improve tidal solutions around Antarctica for the M2, S2,
and O1 constituents. The variational approach used accounts
for the spatial averaging of tidal elevations implicit in the
mass anomaly parametrization used for the GRACE tidal...
This thesis provides the first general description of the natural variation in age
structure, growth rates, and survival in headwater populations of coastal cutthroat
trout Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii from western Oregon, and a subsequent
synthesis of these life-history characteristics across the range of the subspecies.
Age, growth, and survival were...
