(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)A variety of risk factors for bulimia nervosa have been proposed including both environmental factors (e.g., family environment) and personal characteristics (e.g., body dissatisfaction, self-esteem, and perfectionism). ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This research expands on previous work and provides further validation of the Multidimensional Work Ethic Profile (MWEP) by exploring the relationships among the MWEP dimensions and other common work-related attitude ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The focus of this research is characterizing a new material system composed of carbon and graphite foams, which has potential in a wide variety of applications encompassing aerospace, military, offshore, power production ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Continuous Phase Modulation is a popular digital modulation scheme for systems which have tight spectral efficiency and Peak-to-Average ratio (PAR) constraints. In this thesis we propose a method of estimating the capacity ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The growing demand of portable electronic equipment and system-on-a-chip has been pushing the industry to design circuits with very low power supply voltage and low power consumption. The Hard Disk drive industry is looking ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)IDDQ testing has been a very useful test screen for CMOS circuits. However, with each technology node the background leakage of chips is rapidly increasing. As a result it is becoming more difficult to distinguish between ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)In this thesis we study Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) and LDPC like codes over non-binary fields. We extend the concepts used for non-binary LDPC codes to generalize Product Accumulate (PA) codes to non-binary fields. ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)One of the most important issues in the study of Urban-Service Distribution is the choice of the unit of analysis. Because of the ready availability of various data at the level of residence units, census tracts have been ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Myokinins are invertebrate neuropeptides with myotropic and diuretic activity. The lymnokinin receptor from the snail Lymnaea stagnalis was the only previously identified myokinin receptor. A cDNA encoding a neuropeptide ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The internet revolution has led to the demand for high speed, low cost solutions for providing high bandwidth to the consumers. Cable and DSL systems address these requirements through sophisticated analog and digital ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)We study the ∂-Neumann operator and the Kobayashi metric. We observe that under certain conditions, a higher-dimensional domain fibered over Ω can inherit noncompactness of the d-bar-Neumann operator from the base ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This thesis describes the development of a new type of sensor for nitric oxide (NO) that can be used in a variety of combustion diagnostics and control applications. The sensor utilizes the absorption of ultraviolet (UV) ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The present study examined the expectations and preferences about counseling for 211 undergraduate students representing four racial or ethnic categories as well as socioeconomic and gender categories. Participants were ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The Sea Peoples are generally assumed to be a loose confederation of clans that first appeared in the historical record in the 14th century B.C.E. Over a century of scholarship has puzzled over whether they were responsible ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Due to a variety of reasons, one of the most common types of training found at companies is safety and health training. As part of a comprehensive health and safety training program there is usually an ergonomics training ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Five breeding populations were created by crossing elite U.S. sorghum parental lines (RTx430, RTx436, BTx631, BTx635, and Tx2903) with 'Sureño', a dual purpose grain mold resistant sorghum cultivar. Molecular markers ...
-
HRD and its critical factors according to practitioners in the training division of Telkom Indonesia (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This study of an Indonesian company, Telkom Indonesia, identifies how human resource development (HRD) practitioners view or define HRD, what factors they consider critical for HRD practice, and specific issues related to ...
-
