This study provides an empirical test of the Bockstael-McConnell
(1980) household production function (HPF) framework for evaluating wildlife recreation. This is perhaps the first study in which
both taste and technology parameters have been estimated with a
theoretical model specification. The results suggest that for
steelhead sport fishing in Oregon,...
Sixteenth century Elizabeth I of England has long been a figure of interest to Renaissance scholars, and their work largely focuses on how her gender impacted the power, politics, and culture of her day. Many have perceived her to be a heroine whose ingenuity and determination circumvented the limitations imposed...
Little research has investigated girls’ and college women’s reactions to non-objectified media images of women, including those that depict women in instrumental activities like playing a sport. This study examined open-ended responses to images of performance athletes, sexualized athletes, and sexualized models. Participants were 258 adolescent girls (ages 13-18) and...
In the United States, the utilization of digital media has assumed an omnipresent status and has altered the manner in which we communicate, conduct business, and create art and music. However, it has been demonstrated that art therapy lags behind the current culture of prolific use of digital media. To...

During 1961, a program of shore station sampling of ocean temperatures
and salinities was carried out by the. Oceanography Department of Oregon
State University. This is a continuation of the work reported by
Kujala and Wyatt (1961). Sampling was conducted at 11 locations along
the Oregon coast and at one...
This is the third data report of a study designed to determine the
current patterns and water mass characteristics along the Oregon coast.
The first report covered the period July 1958 to July 1959 (Wyatt and
Callaway, 1961). During that year observations were taken to a maximum
depth of 30...

First recorded as a problem in 2003, wildfire smoke has been found to affect wine grapes and lead to alterations to a wine’s flavor profile. Smoke can carry organic volatile compounds over vast distances, which can then be deposited on grapes and are absorbed into the grape’s cells. These compounds...
The Expedition of Whispers is a one-act play about five adventurers who enter an ancient temple in search of a lost historical artifact. Each member of the expedition has a closely guarded secret, and must confront one another as those secrets are revealed.
The Expedition of Whispers was performed by...
The purpose of this research was to investigate the
effectiveness of using an early childhood language intervention
program with children who had been determined to be
language delayed at the ages of 3, 4 and 5 and to determine
how the early childhood langauge intervention program was
associated with changes...
When a person is tasting wine, they first evaluate the appearance and then the aroma. The smell of wine is a crucial part of tasting and the aromas emanating from the wine should be pleasant. Aroma quality perceived in wine is determined by multiple interactions of the components found in...
This thesis examines alternative modes and forms of production in texts by Willa Cather and Virginia Woolf. Applying queer methodologies drawn from the work of Michel Foucault, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, Lee Edelman, and Elizabeth Freeman, I show how Cather’s The Professor’s House and Woolf’s To the Lighthouse demonstrate and interrogate...
Quantum mechanics is increasingly being taught with a spins-first approach where instructors use simple spin systems to introduce the principles of quantum mechanics rather than systems with wavefunctions. One of the defining characteristics of a spins-first approach is that systems studied have discrete bases, whereas systems with wavefunctions have continuous...
Physicists seek to understand the world and often use mathematics to aid in attaining that goal. Thus when doing mathematics they often interrogate their results in order to ensure that they align with their expectations and to gain new insight into how the world works. This seeking of coherence between...
