A comparison of two diagnostic models using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders : toward the development of a teaching paradigm for counselor education

Creator:: Downs, Louis
Abstract:: The present study was conducted to examine the effects of early orientation of counseling related students to the two most prevalent paradigms of psychodiagnostic decision-making on first, the integration of the model, and second, on the ability to make proficient diagnostic decisions while in training. Using an experimental, pretest posttest...

Development of Microfluidic Assays and Flow Control Tools on Porous Materials: Towards a Wound-Health Monitoring Device

Creator:: Downs, Corey J.
Abstract:: Remote health monitoring tools have significant potential to revolutionize the current healthcare paradigm. Such tools could improve efficiencies in healthcare by alerting patients and doctors to abnormal health conditions in real time, shortening the time to diagnose and treat ailments. To meet these needs, we pursue the development of fabric-based...

The phytotoxic effects of herbicide and adjuvant application by physiological timing on the woody shrub salal (Gaultheria shallon)

Creator:: Downs, Theodore
Abstract:: Salal is plant species that is native to forestland throughout the PNW and northern California that has been identified as a competitor to early crop tree development. This study consisted of a field and a radioisotope laboratory study to test four commonly used herbicides on salal (imazapyr, triclopyr, glyphosate, and...

The accuracy of pedometers for adults with Down syndrome during controlled and free-walking conditions

Creator:: Pitchford, Edward Andrew
Abstract:: It has been demonstrated that walking is the most common form of physical activity for adults with intellectual disabilities, including Down syndrome (DS). The pedometer is common measurement tool to quantify steps walked, yet there is little evidence of the psychometric properties for individuals with intellectual disabilities, particularly DS. Thus,...

The role of costimulation and adjuvants in the development of T cell effector and memory responses

Creator:: Maxwell, Joseph R.
Abstract:: T cells are one of the key cells in the immune system. Although they are not the first line of defense against a pathogen, their functions can greatly enhance the phagocytosis and destruction of pathogens as well as the development of antibody responses. Furthermore, even when responding T cells have...

Three-dimensional motion of the center of mass and energetic cost across a variety of walking speeds : a comparison between adults with and without Down syndrome

Creator:: Agiovlasitis, Stamatis
Abstract:: It has been previously suggested that the walking pattern of individuals with Down syndrome is inefficient. This is thought to result from increased instability, particularly in the medio-lateral direction, due to the characteristic joint laxity and muscle hypotonia of individuals with DS. Therefore, this work was an attempt to gain...

Vertebrates, arthropods, and invasive plants : an investigation of the top-down and bottom-up interactions of multiple herbivore guilds in a grassland system

Creator:: Farrell, Kelly Anne
Abstract:: Humans are increasing the scale and frequency of many natural disturbances, as well as adding novel disturbances to ecosystems. This thesis uses the arthropod community as a metric to examine the multi-trophic responses to disturbances in California grasslands. Chapter 2 explores how the long-term exclusion of native vertebrate herbivores has...

Trickle-down ecohydrology : complexity of rainfall interception and net precipitation under forest canopies

Creator:: Allen, Scott T.
Abstract:: Rainfall interception is a primary control over the moisture input to a forested ecosystem through the partitioning of precipitation into throughfall, stemflow, and an evaporated component (i.e. the interception loss). Rainfall interception is a spatially and temporally varying process at multiple scales, but heterogeneity in interception processes are poorly understood...

The Effect of Exercise on the Biomechanical Determinants of Knee Energy Absorption during Single-leg Jump-cuts

Creator:: Pollard, Anne E.
Abstract:: Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are common in a wide variety of sports and most frequently occur during activities requiring rapid deceleration such as landing and cutting. Deceleration of the body's center of mass during movement results primarily from eccentric muscle contraction. This type of contraction serves to absorb energy from...

Spinal reflex control in healthy and ACL-injured women during a distracting task

Creator:: Perrier, Erica Taylor
Abstract:: Female athletes exhibit three- to six-fold greater incidence of noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury relative to their male counterparts. The increased risk appears to stem from interactions between several risk factors, that can roughly be categorized as anatomic, biomechanical, hormonal, and neuromuscular. Neuromuscular risk factors have recently gained a...
