Rats given morphine-codeine combinations exhibited significantly
increased hotplate reaction times compared with rats given
an analgesic dose of one agent alone. Genera, species, sex, protein
binding and metabolism were studied as possible implicating factors
for the increased reaction times. Both male and female rats exhibited
increased reaction time, and showed...
Female Sprague-Dawley rats (220-240 g) were ovariectomized
and seven days later were either treated as controls or received a
single injection of either 0.1 μg, 100 μg, or 2 mg of estradiol-17β dissolved in 0.1 cc propylene glycol. These rats were autopsied
either 1, 3, 6, 24, 48, or 72...
The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effects of
a six week residential summer program of differential education for
gifted high school students. It was designed to determine the extent
to which participants in the program were proficient in aspects of
critical and creative thinking, and in the...
This study was designed to evaluate the relative effectiveness
of a new college general biology course which utilized an audio -
tutorial laboratory as contrasted with a traditional lecture course.
Five biology classes with 720 students at the Kansas State
Teachers College in Emporia, Kansas, participated in the study.
The...
The development of a least squares model for the
determination of compliance constants from various combinations
of vibration frequency, mean square amplitudes
of vibration and centrifugal distortion data is discussed.
The resultant model is applied to frequency and mean square
amplitude data for NO₂ and N₂O₄ and to frequency and...
A method to measure consumers' housing consumption and
investment attitudes according to various dimensions was initiated.
In addition, construct validity of the measurement instrument was
initiated through use of personal variables.
Two scales were developed to measure homeownership consumption
and investment attitudes. The dimensions of homeownership consumption
and investment found...
An extensive literature survey investigated methods and approaches
for evaluating intangible economic factors at the strategic
and tactical levels of managerial decision making. These sources
provided: 1) the background for a theoretical decision making
algorithm developed for comparing alternative economic proposals
for effectiveness at the strategy levels, and 2) a...
