Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of Health Education for Persons with Multiple Sclerosis (HEMS) on increasing physical activity (PA) behavior and constructs of Social Cognitive Theory (SCT), such as outcome expectations, self-efficacy, social support, and goal achievement in individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Results have shown there is little translational...

Native to the Pacific Northwest, Ceratomyxashastais a myxosporeanparasite that infects wild and cultivated salmon and has a significance impact on its population in the Klamath River basin. The study suggests that the transmission of mixed genotypes of the parasite are common in Chinook salmon but the age of the fish...
During the spring of 2014, 176 members of the International Association of
Aquatic and Marine Science Libraries and Information Centers completed a survey
on their participation in and expectations of IAMSLIC. Their responses and
comments are presented to inform planning and communication.
The results were presented at the 40th annual...
This poster describes the development and implementation of a new course in data information literacy for graduate students. Curricular materials were drawn from the New England Collaborative Data Management Curriculum (NECDMC), the DataONE Education Modules, and the MANTRA online course materials. The pedagogical approach for the course combined outcomes-centered course...

With sequential computing technology reaching its speed limits, parallel processing is emerging as the key to very-high-speed computation. However, developing a parallel program is by no means a simple task; neither is analyzing the performance of parallel programs.
C* is a high-level data-parallel language that hides explicit message passing and...
The reaction of fluid or gas flowing around an obstacle is a common engineering problem. Computer simulations are often used to measure and visualize the physical processes involved. In this report, we will discuss a parallel implementation of a simulation using the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) approach to fluid flow....
This study investigates the microstructure and mechanical properties of an austenitic Oxide Dispersion Strengthened (ODS) steel produced by the Laser Directed Energy Deposition (LDED) process using powder feedstock atomized with elemental yttrium. The Microstructure of the samples was characterized by electron microscopy, and mechanical properties were measured using a tensile...
Alexithymia is a trait where individuals have difficulty identifying feeling and finding a word to express emotion. Some studies have suggested that this deficit is due to dissociation (repression), or an inability to perceive emotions, whereas others argued that the deficit is due to suppression of emotional information after it...

Some studies have found that responses are faster when the orientation of an object’s graspable part corresponds with the response location than when it does not (i.e., the object-based correspondence effect). We examined Goslin et al.’s (2012) claim that the effect is the result of object-based attention (visual-action binding). As...

As juvenile salmon migrate from freshwater into saltwater, physiological changes must occur to allow fish to osmoregulate in the marine environment. Juvenile spring Chinook salmon migrate to the ocean at different time periods, most notably in the fall (August – November; i.e. fall smolts) and spring (February – May; i.e....
