Driving simulation is widely accepted as a safe, effective, and economical alternative for investigating driver behavior in a variety of contexts. However, in order to apply simulator-based research results to real-world settings, the performance measures acquired through simulated driving experiments must first be validated. This research was aimed at validating...
The purpose of this study was to examine the mid-life period of
women's lives. It attempted to determine if this time is generally one of crisis, or more commonly a period of smooth transition. Furthermore, it attempted to determine if there is a typical pattern of emotional concerns experienced by...
The incitant of Verticillium wilt of peppermint (Verticillium
dahliae Kleb.) causes disease symptoms only in the genera Mentha
(the mints) and Monarda. This fungus is unable to grow saprophytically
through natural soil. V. dahliae survives in soil by colonizing
and forming microsclerotia in susceptible plants, living root tissue
of many...
An Injury Prevention Program Designed to Reduce the Risk of Lower-Extremity Injuries within Women's NCAA Gymnastics Teams.
Grounded in a behavior change perspective using an integrated theory model that combines the Health Belief Model and the Theory of Planned Behavior, the culmination of this project is a lower-extremity injury prevention...
The “fat-hunger paradox” is a relatively recent phenomenon in the United States in which people of low socioeconomic status are disproportionately overweight or obese, and yet frequently lack access to adequate food and nutrition. Research indicates additional disparities in the prevalence of overweight and obesity amongst most racial and ethnic...

Current natural product (NP) research is limited by its reliance on bioassay-guided fractionation to identify bioactive compounds in mixtures. Computational approaches may improve NP research by correlating mass spectra (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (NMR) of bioactive mixtures to their bioactivity patterns. In this study, I use artificial neural...
