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...

Old McDonald had a Microscope: The Impact of Research Spending on U.S. Agricultural Productivity

Creator:: Rietmann, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: The United States is a global leader in agricultural productivity. Much of its productivity growth can be attributed to public investments in agricultural research and development, starting in the 19th century and continuing until today. Past studies have shown high returns to agricultural research investments, but publicly funded agricultural research...

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...

Ghost factors of laboratory carbonate chemistry are haunting our experiments

Creator:: Galloway, A. W. E., von Dassow, G., Schram, J. B., Klinger, T., Hill, T. M., Lowe, A. T., Chan, F., Yoshioka, R. M., and Kroeker, K. J.
Abstract:: For many historical and contemporary experimental studies in marine biology, seawater carbonate chemistry remains a ghost factor, an uncontrolled, unmeasured, and often dynamic variable affecting experimental organisms or the treatments to which investigators subject them. We highlight how environmental variability, such as seasonal upwelling and biological respiration, drive variation in...

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...

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...

Learning to Teach Science from a Contextualized Stance

Creator:: L’Heureux, K., Giamellaro, M., Beaudry, M-C., Buxton, C., Ayotte-Beaudet, J-P., and Alajmi, T.
Abstract:: Contextualization is a curricular approach and a learning process in which science content knowledge is intentionally situated within a context where that knowledge can be authentically applied or observed. Many recent science education reforms include contextualization as a central tenet. Our goal in this review was to examine commonalities across...

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...

Prospective Associations Between Boys' Substance Use and Problem Behavior Histories and Their Facial Trustworthiness in Adulthood

Creator:: Alley, Zoe M., Kerr, David C. R., Wilson, John Paul, and Rule, Nicholas O.
Abstract:: Introduction: People whose faces look untrustworthy tend to receive harsher social evaluations, including more severe criminal sentences. Yet little is known about how much facial trustworthiness reflects individuals’ behavioral histories. We examined whether adolescent histories of delinquency and substance use predict strangers’ perceptions of young men’s facial trustworthiness. Methods: Boys...
