Genomic Resources for Phylogenetics, Species Delimitation, and Geographic Localization of Neotropical Tree Species Cedrela odorata L. (Meliaceae)

Creator:: Finch, Kristen N.
Abstract:: Biodiversity loss is of global concern, and is due in part to deforestation and high consumer demand for wood and wood products. The neotropical tree species Cedrela odorata (“Spanish cedar” or “cedro”) is economically valuable for its wood and faces threats of overexploitation. Due to strong similarities in wood features...

Variation of the Trowbridge's shrew (Sorex trowbridgii) diet across forest types in the Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Yates, Margaret E.
Abstract:: Investigating the insectivorous diet of the Trowbridge’s shrew (Sorex trowbridgii) across forest types can illustrate how forest management affects biotic communities. I used DNA metabarcoding methods with ANML primers to identify stomach and intestines contents from shrews caught in pitfall traps in the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest (HJA) and Willamette...

Winning through Compromise? An Examination of Bipartisanship and Electability

Creator:: Ellingson-Cosenza, Elena J.
Abstract:: In America’s polarized politics, the language that congresspeople use matters. This thesis examines the use of bipartisan communications—in tweets and press releases—of members of the US House of Representatives as an electoral strategy for representatives in districts of varying competitiveness. A linear regression was conducted to analyze the relationship between...

Perceptions of Sexual Health Websites by Low Income Urban African American Youth and Service Providers

Creator:: Williams, Dacia R.
Abstract:: Low-Income urban African American (LIU-AA) youth are at high risk for HIV/STIs and adolescent pregnancy. Sexual health websites (SHWs) offer an inexpensive, easy-to-disseminate, and potentially highly-accessible method of improving sexual health knowledge, awareness, and help-seeking. The present study examined engagement regarding sexual health websites for at-risk, LIU-AA youth. We conducted...

A Patient-Centered Approach: Applicability of Harm Reduction Principles in Various Healthcare Settings

Creator:: Bodner, Katherine R.
Abstract:: The public health framework of harm reduction was evaluated in one care setting to determine its potential for use in other fields of healthcare. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 11 clients of the HIV Alliance’s needle exchange program. Analysis of client responses revealed three themes: 1) harm reduction methods work...

Physiological characterization of the mixotrophic dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae

Creator:: Tornberg, Emma C.
Abstract:: Marine primary production can be modeled and estimated using remotely-observable physiological signatures such as chlorophyll and carbon. Current models are based on strict physiological relationships based on photoautotrophic phytoplankton, and discrepancies between modeled and in situ data may stem from unaccounted-for physiological deviations from photoautotrophy. Mixotrophic phytoplankton can obtain energy...

Subcultures of Significance: Urbanity-Rurality, Tightness-Looseness, and Risk Perception

Creator:: Frydenlund, Nicole T. L.
Abstract:: Tightness-looseness (TL) is a cultural construct that measures the level of social norms present in a community, and the level of scrutiny of deviance from these norms. This construct offers a unique foundation for investigating how norms influence behavioral processes. Research in TL is relatively young, creating a frontier of...

A perspective on Wikipedia : approaches to educational use

Creator:: Bridges, Laurie M. and Dowell, Meghan L.
Abstract:: In our previous column, we reviewed Wikipedia's role as a global encyclopedia and demonstrated how it can be paired with the ACRL Framework (Dowell & Bridges, 2019). This column will expand on its use, highlighting several approaches for employing Wikipedia as an educational tool through programs, assignments, and methods by...

The Effects of a Hybrid Orientation on the Perceived Wellness of Students in a Masters-Level Counseling Program: An Exploratory Study

Creator:: Muzacz, Arien K., LaGue, April, and Clark, Candice R.
Abstract:: Hybrid programs can often be a desirable option for students entering a graduate program in counseling. However, the rigor of such programs, including academic challenges and maintaining personal wellness, could be a barrier to students from marginalized social locations. Additional support through a hybrid orientation might help these students address...

Stochastic Collocation Error Analysis Within a Kinematic Magnetohydrodynamics Framework

Creator:: Rajbhandari, Evan, Gibson, Nathan L., and Woodside, C. Rigel
Abstract:: We explore one numerical method for dealing with uncertainty quantification, stochastic collocation. We adapt this method for the uncertain kinematic magnetohydrodynamic system. We then demonstrate well-posedness of the uncertain forward problem. We also describe the method in detail, and perform an error analysis of the method, describing the necessary assumptions...
