Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge (HMNAR) established in 1936, is 101,000 ha in area. The refuge was grazed by domestic livestock from the 1870s until their exclusion in 1990. Just prior to removal of livestock, photopoints were taken at various riparian and wetland locations throughout the refuge to document riparian...

Historically fire has been the primary disturbance factor in the sagebrush-steppe. The settlement of the West by Euro-Americans, grazing by domestic livestock, and the concomitant spread of invasive species have altered the historical fire regime. Understanding the long-term vegetation structure and fuel succession of the various sagebrush-dominated communities of this...

The purpose of this study was to examine the evidence of construct validity for self-report with assistance from a secondary source as a measure of physical activity (PA) in adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) in free-living environments. Thirty-seven participants (21 females, 16 males) with mild to moderate ID aged 19-74...
We assessed the effects of the elimination of livestock in riparian systems at Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge in southeastern Oregon, 23 years after the removal of cattle grazing, using 64 photos taken before grazing was removed compared with later retake photos. Two methods were used for this assessment: (1)...
Monitoring physical activity has been a dominant topic of research for many years. Being physically active has been shown to decrease health related issues, including obesity, cardiovascular disease, and even premature death. Multiple researchers have studied monitoring physical activity, but the actual method of measuring physical activity in a free-living...
Introduction: The health benefits of physical activity are well established in older adults with arthritis. Despite these benefits, many older adults with arthritis are not active enough to maintain health; therefore, increasing physical activity in adults with arthritis is a public health priority. The purpose of this study was to...
There is a knowledge gap concerning the outcomes of early adolescent sexual initiation (ASI). In particular, the influence of early ASI upon adult attachment is unknown. A multiple regression study was conducted to address this knowledge gap. Adult partner/spouse attachment was the criterion variable, and the predictor variables included both...
Our nation's schools are in a key position to promote regular physical activity
through participation in quality physical education programs (Sallis & McKenzie,
1991). The ultimate long-term demonstration of each program's impact is the
students' maintenance of an active lifestyle. Physical educators are consistently
attempting to find different ways to...
