The primary purpose of this study was to determine the effects
of early morning and evening bouts of aerobic exercise upon the diurnal
pattern of reaction time and body temperature. An effort was
made to classify subjects according to the rhythmic trends identified
with 'morning' and 'evening' type persons.

Traditional electronic systems are usually fabricated via printed circuit boards (PCBs). In a regular PCB, the electronic components are placed and mounted on a two-dimensional board. Such a component layout limits the freedom in the component placement process which results in larger electronic devices. With the use of Additive Manufacturing...

Adults with severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI) are overrepresented in the homeless population, and Oregon’s homeless population has expanded in recent years. In the 1950s, the mentally ill were moved out of the state hospitals and into the community. However, due to a lack of support services in the...
This thesis seeks to explore how an ecofeminist lens is currently the most useful approach for improving farmed animal welfare. Through examining Western conceptions of non-human animals, I seek to shed light upon the inconsistent treatment of domestic species. Species that are dependent upon us deserve, at a minimum, not...
In an attempt to better understand documentary theory and production, I
created Bowling Together; a documentary recounting the experiences of one bowling
team and looking at the relationship between participation in bowling leagues and civil
society. This thesis provided me a first-hand experience at producing a documentary,
allowing me to...
The undisputed cost-effectiveness of the anti-homelessness program “Housing First” is well established in the empirical literature, but fewer studies have considered the impact of the program on individual residents. This mixed-methods study examines the lives of a cohort of residents in a Portland-based Housing First project, seeking to determine whether...

Some forms of bacterial respiration do not involve molecular
oxygen but instead utilize other hydrogen acceptors for oxidation
of the substrate. Various organic and inorganic acceptors may be
used. In the present study, the inorganic radicals, nitrate and
nitrite, were investigated. Preliminary evidence indicated that
nitrate and oxygen are able...
