The Impact of Interest Rate Changes on the Flow of Funds for Federal Land Banks and Production Credit Associations
(1983)
This study involves a threefold approach to the real demand for loan funds at Federal Land Banks and Production Credit Associations: (1) determination of a conceptual model, (2) estimation of the corresponding statistical ...
Kα X-ray Spectra of Sodium Compounds Excited by High Energy, Heavy Charged Particles
(1983)
The Kα x-ray spectra of sodium compounds produced by bombardment with 5.2 MeV He⁺ and 20 MeV C³⁺ were measured using a curved crystal spectrometer. The average probability of electron transfer to the L shell of sodium was ...
Gene Flow in Cucurbita
(1983)
Cucurbita pepo and Cucurbita texana when artificially crossed produce fully fertile hybrids. Thus interspecific genetic exchange is possible. An attempt was made to monitor actual gene flow between these two taxa under ...
The Mean Density of the Oceanic Crust
(1983)
There now exist sufficient numbers of recovered marine and ophiolitic samples to correlate their measured velocities and densities with marine seismic survey data in order to determine the mean density of the oceanic crust. ...
The Psychological Effects of Chronic Illness as Determined by the Junior-Senior High School Personality Questionnaire

The Development and Preliminary Use of an In Vitro Test for Susceptibility to Induced Chromosomal Damage
(1983)
A new in vitro test for susceptibility to induced chromosomal damage is described. It involves treating primary fibroblast cultures with a known clastogen, bleomycin. The test differs from those previously published in ...
Perspectives on Collective Action Organizations
(1983)
In this study four theoretical perspectives are used to develop seven sets of testable hypotheses about the behavior of collective action organizations. These four perspectives are: (1) Coalition theory, (2) Alliance theory, ...
Touch Systems for Object Identification and Manipulator Protection
(1983)
Various types of touch sensors which are currently being developed for use in Robotics are discussed. Three touch systems of varying degrees of complexity are then proposed. A simple, or basic, system is composed of force ...
A Comparison of the Nutritional Qualities of Corn, Whole Sorghum, and Pearled Sorghum Tortillas
(1983)
Sorghum has been shown to produce tortillas comparable to the traditional corn tortilla. Sorghum has been found to have a lower feed efficiency than corn. This study examined, for the first time, the nutritional quality ...
