The effects of apologies and causal attribution on public responses
(2019-05-10)Apologies have been used in crisis communications to address organizational transgressions. Yet, there is no consensus about the components of an apology (e.g., Hearit, 2006; Smith, 2008). Also, the causes of an organization’s ... -
Electromyographic Measurement of the Chinchilla Middle Ear Muscle Reflex Elicited by Acoustic or Blast Stimuli
(2019-05-10)Hearing damage is a widespread problem that can cause social isolation and reductions in quality of life. A wide range of conditions including extended exposure to noise or near-instantaneous exposure to blast overpressure ... -
Character and Moral Judgment: Designing Right and Wrong
(2019-05-10)I argue that an adequate theory of rightness should meet (at least) two distinct conditions: a “Consequences Condition” according to which the rightness or wrongness of some, but not all acts should be determined conclusively ... -
A PERFORMER’S GUIDE TO ADAM CUTHBÉRT’S WORKS FOR SOLO TRUMPET AND ABLETON SOFTWARE
(2019-05-10)Adam Cuthbért has established himself as a composer worthy of study through his prolific interactions with a wide range of performers and organizations of national and international renown. High profile groups such as the ... -
Methods for block functionalization of carbon nanotubes and applications
(2019-05-10)This work has shown a method to produce block functionalized carbon nanotubes, BF-CNTs, with polymer covalently grafted to the sidewall with a selectivity along the length of the nanotube. This selectivity is reversible ... -
Improving Data Management for Cow and Calf Researchers
(2019-05-10)The aim of this thesis titled Improving Data Management for Cow and Calf Researchers is to develop an online database for the researchers in order to store detailed information on cattle under their supervision. Live Barn ... -
The Influence of Countermovement Jump Protocol on Reactive Strength Index Modified and Flight Time: Contraction Time in Collegiate Basketball Players
(2019-02-12)The purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate differences in Reactive Strength Index Modified (RSIMod) and Flight Time to Contraction Time Ratio (FT:CT) during the countermovement jump (CMJ) performed without ... -

Lab Manual for Nonmajors Biology
(2019-02)Lab manual for use in college-level nonmajors biology courses. Lab manual includes lab safety guidelines and labs for process and tools of science; using the microscope; digestion; food microbiology; bacteria and disease; ... -
HIGH RESOLUTION MICROSCOPY OF ANTIMONIDE HETEROSTRUCTURES AND STREPSIPTERA EYES
(2019-01-25)We study different Antimonide heterostructure resulting from a calibration step for infrared photodetector and infrared laser. Using SEM and AFM, we found a trend in the density of surface features on Antimonide heterostructures ... -
Association of Vitamin D Status with Chronic Disease Risk Factors and Cognitive Dysfunction in 50–70 Year Old Adults
(2019-01-11)Vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency has been primarily associated with skeletal disorders, however, since vitamin D receptors are found on multiple types of cells, there is also a link to increased chronic disease risk and ... -
A New Paradigm for Proactive Self-Healing in Future Self-Organizing Mobile Cellular Networks
(2019)Mobile cellular network operators spend nearly a quarter of their revenue on network management and maintenance. Remarkably, a significant proportion of that budget is spent on resolving outages that degrade or disrupt ... -
Characterization of Rutting in Asphalt Pavements using Laboratory Testing
(2019)In asphalt pavements, rutting is one of the main concerns at high in-service temperature, which can occur either through plastic flow or shear in structural layers. Rutting depends on several factors, such as asphalt binder ... -
Thermal disruption of soil bacterial assemblages decreases diversity and assemblage similarity
(2019)The metabolic theory of ecology assumes that rates of selection and adaptation for organisms are functions of temperature. Niche theory predicts that strong selection pressure should simplify assemblages as species are ... -
On the geography of activity: productivity but not temperature constrains discovery rates by ectotherm consumers
(2019)Consumer activity—the rate that individuals move through and discover items in their environment—can constrain population interactions and ecosystem services. We introduce a model that assumes consumer activity is co‐limited ... -
Small mammal herbivores mediate the effects of soil nitrogen and invertebrate herbivores on grassland diversity
(2019)Simultaneous reductions in herbivore abundance and increases in nitrogen deposition have led to radical shifts in plant communities worldwide. While the individual impacts of these human‐caused disturbances are apparent, ... -
Examining Vulnerability to Tornadoes Using Census Tract-Level Demographic Data and Tornado Damage Survey Paths
(2019-01)Tornadoes pose a substantial risk to life and property and while advancements in understanding of hazard evolution and forecast communication increases community resiliency, better understanding and quantification of social ... -
Acute and Chronic Effects of Whole-Body Vibration on Balance, Postural Stability, and Mobility in Women With Multiple Sclerosis
(2018-12-27)The acute and chronic effects of whole-body vibration (WBV) on balance, postural stability, and mobility were evaluated in 21 women with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) randomly assigned to control (n = 9) or ... -
Electromechanical Systems
(2018-12-19)This eBook was written as the third installment in the series that coincide with three engineering courses taught at the University of Oklahoma (ENGR 2431, ENGR 2531, and ENGR 3431). These courses were designed to provide ... -
A Pub-lication of Beer
(2018-12-17)Nearly every societal demographic consumes beer and has done so for more than 9,000 years, yet little regard has been given to its environmental impacts. We explore the ethics of this delicious dilemma to determine how ...
