  • The Auteur Perspective of David Fincher

    Creator:
    Kitamura, Garrett
    Abstract:
    Director David Fincher’s films contain many distinct elements that set his work apart, but one of the most instantly recognizable elements is his visual style – specifically, his camerawork. The level of control and purposefulness that Fincher exhibits in his films qualify Fincher as the auteur, or “author,” of his...

  • Wavelength Dependence of the Scattering of Small Particles by Sunlight

    Creator:
    Bain, Scott A.
    Abstract:
    This project calculates the value of β for ice particles based on wavelength dependent values of their refractive and absorptive indices. β is the ratio of the force due to radiation to the force due to gravity acting on a particle in the solar system. This parameter can later be...

  • Optimizing Monte Carlo simulation of the square-well fluid

    Creator:
    Perlin, Michael A.
    Abstract:
    We identify and develop efficient Monte Carlo methods for determining thermodynamic properties of the square-well fluid in order to test square-well density functional theories near the critical point. Previous works have developed generic so-called histogram methods for collecting statistics on low energy system states, but little or no literature exists...

  • Personality and Binge Drinking: How Personality Risk Factors Affect the Prevalence and Timing of College Binge Drinking

    Creator:
    Lewis, Katherine A. G.
    Abstract:
    Through the use of daily online surveys, this study investigated the weekly trends associated with college binge drinking. It also investigated the relationship between personality risk factors and binge drinking. Personality risk factors were assessed using the TCI measures of novelty seeking and harm avoidance, and the ATQ measure of...

  • Consistent Histories Formulation of the Double-Slit Experiment

    Creator:
    Bauml, Benjamin N.
    Abstract:
    The standard interpretation of quantum mechanics (known as the Copenhagen interpretation) divides the world into quantum phenomena and classical observers that perform measurements upon the phenomena. This provides a quite functional framework for calculating probabilities of measurement outcomes, but it lacks the generality necessary for such things as retrodiction, and...

  • Hispanic and farmworker health : a community health survey of Hood River County, Oregon.

    Creator:
    Carne, David Michael
    Abstract:
    Hispanics in Hood River County, Oregon account for roughly 25% of the population, with many employed in agriculture. A community health survey was carried out in Hood River County during the winter months of 2001 with the purpose of evaluating the health conditions, needs, and barriers to access of needed...

  • Sulforaphane Regulation of LncRNA in a Transplacental Nrf2 Knockout Mouse Model Exposed to Dibenzo[def,p]chrysene

    Creator:
    Patel, Karan A.
    Abstract:
    Dibenzo[def,p]chrysene (DBC) is a highly potent, but less prevalent, environmental carcinogen belonging to a class of compounds known as Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs). They are highly ubiquitous and arise as a byproduct of natural and anthropogenic combustion processes. Previous studies have documented carcinogenic effects upon in utero exposure of PAHs....

  • Implications of Red Signal Countdown Timers on Visual Attention of Oregon Drivers

    Creator:
    Wyman, Amy A.
    Abstract:
    Red Signal Countdown Timers (RSCTs) are devices placed at intersections to inform drivers of the time remaining on a red indication before it turns green, typically to improve intersection efficiency. This study examines the visual attention of Oregon drivers to circular red (CR) indications with RSCTs as compared to standard...

  • Influence of Texting on Driver Glance Patterns and Vehicular Lane Position on Horizontal Curves

    Creator:
    Ellett, Makenzie A.
    Abstract:
    The use of in-vehicle technologies, such as mobile phones, while driving has proliferated in recent years. Most notably, drivers are using mobile phones to send and receive text messages while operating a vehicle with increasing frequency. The act of texting while driving poses a significant threat not only to the...

  • The Social Safety Net and Child Poverty in Oregon

    Creator:
    Koch, Dillon A.
    Abstract:
    The Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) is the newest method to paint a more accurate picture of the scope of poverty in the United States than the Official Poverty Measure (OPM). In doing so, the SPM includes many sources of income, including income from work and in-kind government supplemental policies. The...
