The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences
between middle- and lower-class adolescents and the extent of their
self-disclosure to their mothers and their fathers; and their feelings
both positive and negative toward their parents and themselves.
The subjects consisted of 50 middle-class and 50 lower-class
adolescents who...
A Willamette Valley farm cooperative was interested
in evaluating locations for their canning facilities based on
the criterion of minimizing aggregate distance to their contract
farms. This location problem presented an excellent opportunity
for a geographic application project as it was characterized by
one, a spatial distribution of farms and...
The purpose of this study was to seek information regarding
issues around which dating decisions were made and some of the steps
college freshmen women considered in deciding for or against certain
courses of action while random and steady dating. A second more
general purpose was to determine if the...
The purpose of this study was to assess changes in attitudes
toward behavioral understanding, marital role expectations, and self
concept in a selected group of high school girls. These subjects
were enrolled in a one semester child development course which
included observation and participation experiences with young children.
The subjects...
The major purpose of this study was to assess changes
in behavioral understanding and attitudes students may have
experienced in association with their participation in a
high school child development course. In addition, assessments
were made of changes in subject's perceptions cf:
1) marriage role expectation, 2) self-concept, and 3)...
The purpose of this study was to assess change in self concept,
marital role expectation, and behavioral understanding in high
school students enrolled in a family life course.
The subjects were two groups of high school students from an
only senior high school in a school district. The experimental group...
The isoprenoid pathway is one of the major biosynthetic pathways of secondary metabolites. Isoprenoids with a C₂₀ skeleton are known as diterpenoids and are derived from the common precursor, geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP). This dissertation describes approaches to discover the diterpene synthase enzymes which provide the backbone structures for pleuromutilin and...
As a result of its atomic structure, carbon fiber produced from mesophase pitch
has a high electrical conductivity and high tensile strength. Others have used carbon fiber
as a resistive heating unit to accelerate matrix solidification in carbon fiber-polymer
matrix composites.
In this study, a unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced polymer...
We used recent phenomenological form factors to calculate the effect of on-shell
two-pion exchange in nucleon-nucleon scattering below the two-pion production
threshold. As expected, the contributions of partial wave amplitudes are all negligible.
We also noticed that the relativistic spin-operator decomposition of the
scattering amplitude is not unique at certain...
