Evaluations of validity and reliability of a transtheoretical model for sedentary behavior among college students
(JCFCorp SG PTE LTD, 2015-09)Objective: To evaluate the measurement properties of the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) questionnaire for sedentary behaviors among college students and to examine the validity and reliability of the developed TTM questionnaire. ... -
Everyday evidence applied to assess academic library OER initiatives

Evidence for a particle produced in association with weak bosons and decaying to a bottom-antibottom quark pair in Higgs boson searches at the Tevatron
(2012-08-14)We combine searches by the CDF and D0 Collaborations for the associated production of a Higgs boson with a W or Z boson and subsequent decay of the Higgs boson to a bottom-antibottom quark pair. The data, originating from ... -
Evidence for alternative quaternary structure in a bacterial Type III secretion system chaperone
(BioMed Central, 2010-07-15)Background: Type III secretion systems are a common virulence mechanism in many Gram-negative bacterial pathogens. These systems use a nanomachine resembling a molecular needle and syringe to provide an energized conduit ... -
Evidence for phage-mediated gene transfer among Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains on the phylloplane
(American Society for Microbiology, 1994-02)As the use of genetically engineered microorganisms for agricultural tasks becomes more frequent, the ability of bacteria to exchange genetic material in the agricultural setting must be assessed. Transduction (bacterial ... -
Evidence for WZ and ZZ production in final states with b-tagged jets
(2011-11-15)We present evidence for the combined production of VZ (V = W or Z) events in final states containing charged leptons (electrons or muons) or neutrinos, and heavy flavor jets, using data collected by the D0 detector at the ... -
Evidence of the role of tick subolesin in gene expression
(BioMed Central, 2008-08-02)Background: Subolesin is an evolutionary conserved protein that was discovered recently in Ixodes scapularis as a tick protective antigen and has a role in tick blood digestion, reproduction and development. In other ... -
Evolutionary aspects of resurrection ecology: Progress, scope, and applications-an overview
(Wiley Open Access, 2017-11-22)This perspective provides an overview to the Special Issue on Resurrection Ecology (RE). It summarizes the contributions to this Special Issue, and provides background information and future prospects for the use of RE in ... -
Evolutionary relationships of the Critically Endangered frog Ericabatrachus baleensis Largen, 1991 with notes on incorporating previously unsampled taxa into large-scale phylogenetic analyses
(BioMed Central, 2014-03-10)Background: The phylogenetic relationships of many taxa remain poorly known because of a lack of appropriate data and/or analyses. Despite substantial recent advances, amphibian phylogeny remains poorly resolved in many ... -
Exceptional surgeries in 3-manifolds
(2021-01-28)Myers shows that every compact, connected, orientable 3--manifold with no 2--sphere boundary components contains a hyperbolic knot. We use work of Ikeda with an observation of Adams-Reid to show that every 3--manifold ... -
Excess foundry sand characterization and experimental investigation in controlled low-strength material and hot-mixing asphalt
(Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI), 2004-10)This report provides technical data regarding the reuse of excess foundry sand. The report addresses three topics: a statistically sound evaluation of the characterization of foundry sand, a laboratory investigation to ... -
Exflagellation responses of cultured Plasmodium falciparum (Haemosporida: Plasmodiidae) gametocytes to human sera and midguts of anopheline mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae)
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 1994)The process of exflagellation was quantified for cultured Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes exposed to human sera and midgut homogenates from six vector species of Anopheles mosquitoes. Neither serum factors related to ... -
Exogenously scavenged and endogenously synthesized heme are differentially utilized by Mycobacterium tuberculosis
(American Society for Microbiology, 2022-10-26)Heme is both an essential cofactor and an abundant source of nutritional iron for the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis. While heme is required for M. tuberculosis survival and virulence, it is also potentially ... -
Exotic superconductivity through bosons in a dynamical cluster approximation
(2015-08-07)We study the instabilities towards (exotic) superconductivity of mixtures of spin-1/2 fermions coupled to scalar bosons on a two-dimensional square lattice with the Dynamical-Cluster-Approximation (DCA) using a numerically ... -
Expanding access to tribal treaties in the United States from 1778-1886
(2023-03-09)The Oklahoma State University Libraries joined with federal partners to create the Tribal Treaties Database (TTD), based on the seven-volume Indian Affairs: Laws and Treaties, edited by Charles J. Kappler. In its second ... -
Expected number of real zeros for random orthogonal polynomials
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2015-07-05)We study the expected number of real zeros for random linear combinations of orthogonal polynomials. It is well known that Kac polynomials, spanned by monomials with i.i.d. Gaussian coefficients, have only (2/π + o(1))logn ... -
Experiencing the difference between a virtual and in-person fit session
(Iowa State University, 2020-12-28)This research explored the concept of using avatars as fit models. Participants who had 2D/3D computer-aided design skills developed two basic garments and virtually draped the garments on two avatars, one was the program’s ... -
Experimental analysis of reintroduction strategies to conserve the vulnerable plains topminnow Fundulus sciadicus in Nebraska
(Inter Research, 2017-11-23)Plains topminnow Fundulus sciadicus are endemic to the Great Plains (USA), and because of declines in their geographic range and local abundance, are granted protection throughout their native range. Experimental reintroductions ... -
Experimental time-domain study of THz signals from impulse excitation of a horizontal surface dipole
(AIP Publishing, 1999-03-22)Using optoelectronic techniques with sub-ps resolution, we have characterized the electric-field time-domain response from an impulsively excited, micron-sized dipole antenna on a dielectric surface. When detected by an ...
