Factors affecting English as a second language learning for new and returning international college students enrolled at an English Language Institute in the United States
(1995)
The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) to conduct a qualitative case study of new and returning foreign students' and second language teachers' beliefs and attitudes toward English as a second language learning and ...
Use of palmitoleate and myristoleate to establish the effects of fatty acid chain length and saturation on plasma cholesterol
(1992)
Specific objectives of this study were to test the hypothesis that fatty acid chain length, rather than saturation, is primarily responsible for the effects on plasma lipoproteins. Weanling pigs were assigned to six groups ...
Adsorption and catalytic studies on model mono- and bimetallic catalysts
(1993)
The adsorption and oxidation of carbon monoxide were studied on model mono- and bimetallic catalysts of Pd(111), Pd(100), Cu(100), Rh(100) and Cu/Rh(100), using combined elevated pressure reactor/IR cell-UHV surface analysis ...
Boundary kernel estimation of the two sample comparison density function
(1989)
The focus of this work is to derive functional and graphical statistical techniques for the two sample problem suitable for implementation in modern computing environments. In the two sample problem, it is desired to test ...
Development and testing of a bovine model for sperm antigen immunocontraception
(1995)
The objectives of this research project were to utilize monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), which were generated against human fertilization-related sperm antigens, to test for their cross-reactivity with bovine spermatozoa. ...
Lepton pair production in the electromagnetic fields of relativistic collisions
(1991)
Electromagnetic lepton pair production is studied in an ab initio approach with no free parameters. A semi-classical approximation to the relative motion of the two incident particles is made and the resulting second-order ...
Positions of power : initiating the relationship between legislators and pacs
(1993)
The relationship between legislators and political action committees has been consistently characterized in political science as one in which PACs pursue candidates offering contributions. The literature in the business ...
The impacts of regional structural changes on the supply response of milk in the United States
(1992)
During the 1980s, there were major structural changes in the U.S. dairy industry. These structural shifts are exemplified by changes in regional location of production, as well as, disparate regional changes in the number ...
On the private provision of public goods
(1990)
The expanding interest in the private delivery of many public goods and services suggests public provision of public goods need not represent a dominant institution. Basic analysis of private market provision of excludable ...
Monte Carlo evidence on consumer surplus estimation using parametric and semiparametric models
(1994)
Monte Carlo experiments are conducted to investigate consumer surplus derived from parametric and semiparametric models. The experiments are designed to simulate censored and truncated recreation demand data under different ...
