  • The exercise motivation scale : its multifaceted structure and construct validity

    Creator:
    Li, Fuzhong
    Abstract:
    Building upon Deci and Ryan's (1985, 1991) self-determination theory as well as previous empirical work on motivation, the present study was designed to develop a multifaceted 31-item Exercise Motivation Scale (EMS). A series of pilot studies were first conducted in order to generate the 31 scale items. The EMS was...

    Populin, Luis
    Abstract:
    The present study investigated the contribution of attention to one-handed catching success. A group of skilled (N = 8) and non-skilled (N = 10) subjects were compared in their ability to process secondary task information while executing a primary one-handed catching task. On 40% of the trials, a secondary visual...

  • The role of musculoskeletal forces in the human walk-run transition

    Creator:
    Fewster, Jonathan B.
    Abstract:
    This investigation examined the possible role of musculoskeletal forces in the human walk-run transition. In order to measure these forces a treadmill was constructed which allowed the measurement of vertical ground reaction forces while subjects walked and ran at prescribed speeds. Validation proved the device to be accurate and reliable...

  • Transformation of tobacco with the yeast FRE1 and FRE2 genes : characterization of transformants and discovery of a temperature-dependent morphological mutant

    Creator:
    Samuelsen, Andrew Ira
    Abstract:
    A key mechanism utilized by plants to make iron (Fe) available for uptake is the reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) via an inducible, plasma membrane-bound Fe(III) reductase. Genes encoding such enzymes have not yet been isolated from plants; however, two Fe(III) reductases have been cloned from yeast. FRE1 and FRE2...
