A method for isolating the salt gland (SG) from the larval brine
shrimp has been developed. This extra-renal organ is removed from 5-10%
of Stage Inauplii by vortexing after incubating the animals at 37°C for
8 hours in a saline solution buffered with 100 mM sodium phosphate at pH
7.6....
Cambial activity in white spruce stems in Alaska was observed
from April, 1964 to September, 1965 in over 300 samples taken from
50- to 60-year-old natural stands. Mitotic index was used as a measure
of the rate of periclinal division of fusiform cells in the cambial
zone. Anticlinal divisions are...
A study was made to determine biological relationships between the garden symphylan, Scutigerella immaculata (Newport), and an entomogenous fungus, Entomophthora coronata (Costantin), which attacks it under certain conditions. Until this fungus was found to infect this pest, no organism which seemed to offer promise of control had been discovered. Symphylan...
Organization theory had seldom been applied to higher education
organizations but recent developments in organization theory appeared
to have potential for such application. No coherent theory of
educational change had been developed. However, one multidisciplinary
synthesis of literature on organizational change was congruent with
modern organization theory and contained both...

The Purpose of the Study
This study was undertaken to design, implement, and assess
the effectiveness of a memory retraining program. The design
was a true experimental design with pretest/posttest control
group and randomized selection of experimental group. The

between...
A new organization was created when Oregon State University (OSU) School of Education and Western Oregon State College (WOSC) Division of Education merged into the OSU-WOSC School of Education in the fall of 1982. Two education faculties from two different kinds of institutions (i.e., a large university and a small...
The purpose of the study was to develop a schematic model
that would make motivation and learning theories more comprehensible
to beginning theory students by providing a common method of displaying
and integrating theories in such a way that they could claim
a mutual language and could be examined and...
