A Process Evaluation of a Social Cognitive Theory–Based Childhood Obesity Prevention Intervention: The Comics for Health Program
(Health Promotion Practice, 2013-03-01)
Process evaluations are an often overlooked yet essential component of health promotion interventions. This study reports the results of a comprehensive process evaluation for the “Comics for Health” program, a childhood ...
Countering Groupthink: The Inner-Circle of Influence
(2013)
As noted by research journalists, Hart, Stern & Sundelius (1997), foreign policy decisions "...are shaped in relatively small groups and informal face-to-face interaction" (p 4). This study explores the influence of ...
An examination of agonist and antagonist motor unit firing properties
(2013)
The interactions between opposing muscle (i.e. agonist and antagonist) groups can be extremely complex, task-dependent, and are still poorly understood. To identify possible origins of the coordination between antagonistic ...
NORMAL TORI IN #_n(S2xS1) AND THE DEHN TWIST AUTOMORPHISMS OF THE FREE GROUP
(2013)
The 3-dimensional space which renders a Out(F_n) action is M = #_n(S2x S1). The relation between M and Out(F_n) is that the latter is isomorphic to the mapping class group of M up to rotations about 2-spheres in M.

The Medieval Latin Transmission of the Menelaus Theorem
(2013)
The Menelaus Theorem, which involves the ratios between the chords of arcs arranged in a certain manner on the surface of a sphere, was the fundamental proof for spherical astronomy in antiquity and the middle ages. In ...
Effects of Equivalence Ratio on Combustion Characteristics of Laminar Partially Premixed Flames of Petroleum-Biofuel Blends
(2013)
In order to provide energy independence and control pollutant emissions during combustion, alternative fuels are being developed. Biodiesel (fatty acid methyl esters) has received, and continues to receive, considerable ...
SEARCH FOR THE STANDARD MODEL HIGGS BOSON PRODUCTION AND DECAY TO W BOSON PAIRS USING THE LEPTON + MET + JETS CHANNEL USING 4.7 $fb^{-1}$ OF DATA RECORDED BY THE ATLAS DETECTOR AT $\sqrt{s} =$ 7 TEV PROTON-PROTON COLLISION
(2013)
A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying to two W bosons with the subsequent decay to a final state containing one lepton, one neutrino, and two (or three) jets ($H\rightarrow WW^{*}\rightarrow\ell\nu
The Relationship Between Self-Directed Learning Readiness and Learning Style Preferences on Employees in a Public Library System
(2013-12)
This quantitative correlational study investigated to what degree a relationship exists between self-directed learning readiness and learning style preferences on employee learning by sampling 169 employees employed in a ...
QUANTIFYING UNCERTAINTIES IN GLOBAL AND NORTH AMERICAN REGIONAL CLIMATE CHANGE PROJECTIONS USING A MULTI-THOUSAND MEMBER GLOBAL CLIMATE MODEL PERTURBED PHYSICS ENSEMBLE
(2013-11)
Information on the uncertainties in projections of future climate change from global climate models (GCMs) is vital for their effective use across a wide range of applications, including their increasing role in driving ...
