Generativity During Preretirement : Motivation and Actions of Pre-Retirees

Creator:: Hatlen, Andrew James
Abstract:: This thesis examines the role of Erikson’s (1950) theory of generativity in facilitating knowledge transfer during the preretirement transition. McAdams and de St. Aubin’s (1992) updated framework for generativity is used as a theoretical foundation to explain motivation and actions during this period. Through the use of multiple-case studies, twenty-one...

Glutenin macropolymer in salted and alkaline noodles and its relation with dough properties and cooked noodle texture

Creator:: Ong, Yee-Ling
Abstract:: Glutenin protein molecules can form a large "macropolymer" which forms the elastic component of the gluten complex in wheat flour doughs. Little work has been done to investigate relationships between glutenin macropolymer (GMP) and noodle processing. GMP was isolated from flour of 4 wheat varieties; 3 hard- and 1 soft-grained...

Oxidation of Zircaloy-4 in pressurized water reactor conditions

Creator:: VanWinkle, James A.
Abstract:: A study of the oxidation of zircaloy in reactor environments has been undertaken with the goal of characterizing of the Thermal Gradient Test Facility (TGTF) at Teledyne Wah Chang, Albany. A set of oxidation models is presented from the literature, as well as an extensive database of published oxidation test...

Managing the spatial configuration of land : the economics of land use and habitat fragmentation

Creator:: Lewis, David James
Abstract:: Habitat fragmentation has been widely studied in the biological literature and is considered a primary threat to biodiversity. However, there has been little research on land-use policies to reduce fragmentation. This dissertation focuses on two major research issues related to fragmentation policies. First, I develop an analytical model to analyze...

Social calling behavior of Southeast Alaskan humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) : classification and context

Creator:: Fournet, Michelle Elizabeth Hardy
Abstract:: Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are vocal baleen whales that exhibit complex social interactions that vary spatially and seasonally. Across their range, humpback whales produce a wide array of vocalizations including ‘song’, foraging vocalizations, and a range of vocalizations known as social calls -- unclassified non-song vocalizations. This study investigates the...

On his own terms : William James, identity, and the development of American Psychology

Creator:: Stoller, Kevin R.
Abstract:: William James came of age at a time of great social and intellectual change in the United States. During this period, new professional identities proliferated, and a new culture of professionalization developed with important ramifications for conceptions of individual and social identity. Professionalization was also closely related to key intellectual...

Wildfire Severity Has a Minimal Influence on Pollen Diversity Used by Developing Mason Bees (Osmia lignaria) in Mixed Conifer Forest

Creator:: Bell, Nicole C. S.
Abstract:: Native bees are critically important organisms that support biodiversity and crop production via their pollination services. Wildfires in temperate conifer forests can increase bee abundance and flowering plant density due to increased light exposure, but little information is available regarding how wildfire severity influences provisioning to bee offspring, which is...

Satellite infrared measurement of sea surface temperature : empirically evaluating the thin approximation

Creator:: Kowalski, Andrew S.
Abstract:: Satellite technology represents the only technique for measuring sea surface temperatures (SSTs) on a global scale. SSTs are important as boundary conditions for climate and atmospheric boundary layer models which attempt to describe phenomena of all scales, ranging from local forecasts to predictions of global warming. Historical use of infrared...

Petroleum refinery residuals : a recycling feasibility study

Creator:: Hoffman, Andrew J.
Abstract:: Large quantities of unused heavy oil and residual waste products from the petroleum refining industry were deposited in on-site landfills, pits, and lagoons, prior to the promulgation of regulations governing their disposal and technology development that would further utilize and/or recycle these materials. Contacting petroleum products with sulfuric acid for...

Pyramiding quantitative trait loci conditioning partial resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in bush blue lake green beans (Phaseolus vulgaris)

Creator:: Barrett, Miles Andrew
Abstract:: Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary is a necrotrophic pathogen capable of causing white mold, a severe disease in common bean. White mold is of particular concern to the Oregon snap bean processing industry, where processors allow less than 3% incidence in harvested shipments. Breeding for white mold resistance in beans...
