The upper Eocene to lower Oligocene Oswald West mudstone is
the oldest formation (informal) in the Green Mountain-Young's
River area. This 1,663 meter thick hemipelagic sequence was deposited
in a low-energy lower to upper slope environment in the Coast
Range forearc basin. The formation ranges from the late Narizian

The present status of plastics is one of constant change, but
this thesis attempts to focus attention on the state of the industry as of
1967. Beginning with a brief title definition and history of plastics,
the writer proceeds to a discussion on the structural characteristics
of plastics. Under this...
While there is growing public concern over the safety
of the food supply, few studies have contrasted varying
perceptions of pesticide risk. This study assessed and
contrasted perceptions of three groups of Oregon State
University Extension Service clientele (home food
preservers, Master Gardener volunteers, commercial growers)
and factors influencing these...
A nutrition education program for employed women on maintaining a
healthy weight was developed and evaluated. Delivery of eight messages (two
per week for four weeks) by electronic mail was tested for effectiveness.
The subjects were 243 members of the Oregon State University Office
and Personnel Association who were randomly...
Few remote health monitoring (RHM) studies have included Mexican-origin Latinos, and even fewer have explored RHM acceptance and utility, reasons for RHM uptake success or failure, or how cultural values influence RHM use among this population. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the remote health monitoring (RHM)...
Studies on the positive effects of stress, called stress-related growth (SRG), are increasing, and there are a variety of contradictory theoretical models and findings in the literature. This dissertation compared several of these models in two studies, using two waves of data from the Davis Longitudinal Study, a study of...
The anthropogenic introduction of nutrients to water bodies has been shown to alter the structure and function of natural aquatic ecosystems, yet national EPA lake and reservoir nutrient criteria remain too broad for effective regional water quality management. This study uses a reference site approach to propose numeric nutrient criteria...

A fundamental problem that emerges during the planning of a city or neighborhood is how to prioritize sustainable development criteria and where to focus efforts. Solving this problem is a complex task requiring an integrated approach, which considers environmental, economic, and social criteria, as well as stakeholder preferences. Given the...
Purpose of the Study The purpose of the study was to determine if differences existed in commitment to teacher collective bargaining associations among vocational teachers. The objectives were: (1) to determine the degree of commitment among secondary vocational teachers to the teachers' collective bargaining association; and (2) to determine the...
Silicone wristbands are passive sampling devices (PSD) that sequester bioavailable organic chemicals in the environment. In environmental health studies, silicone wristbands are easy to wear and can provide personal exposure data about complex chemical mixtures. This dissertation includes an overview of PSD technology, a literature review of current wristband research...
This thesis examines archaeological material in order to explore gender and ethnicity issues concerning fur trade era families from a settlement in the Willamette Valley, Oregon. Ethnohistorical information consisting of traders journals and travelers observations, as well as documentation from the Hudson's Bay Company, Catholic church records, and genealogical information...
Many mycorrhizosphere microorganisms can produce
plant growth regulating compounds in vitro. Plant growth
regulating compounds are known to mediate root growth and
development. In reforestation practices, conifer tree
seedling growth and survival are linked to rapid root
growth and development after outplanting. Multifactorial
experiments were conducted to document variations in...
This thesis investigates lithogenic sediments on the Siberian Arctic shelf, their sources, modes of dispersal, transport pathways and post-depositional diagenetic alteration. Working with cores collected from the Chukchi, East Siberian and Laptev Seas, we characterize surface-sediment elemental chemistry and clay mineralogy. We identify five regions with endmember sedimentary compositions. Comparing...
Controversy regarding moral development research has given rise to a proliferation of theories competing for acceptance. For all these researchers, the work of Lawrence Kohlberg is the pivot point for comparisons, contrasts, and discussions. Still, no theories to date adequately describe and document a theoretically complete conception of moral judgment...
