Application of the transtheoretical model to sedentary behaviors and its association with physical activity status
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2017-04-27)Background: The Transtheoretical Model (TTM) is a successful framework for guiding behavior change programs for several health behaviors, yet its application to reduce of sedentary behavior has been neglected. In addition, ... -
Applying design thinking to information literacy instruction
(Association of College and Research Libraries, 2015-01-27) -
Approximate g-functions for selection of borehole field configurations used with ground-source heat pump systems
(2022-10-17)The arrangement of boreholes in ground heat exchangers used with ground-source heat pump systems is commonly based on pre-computed libraries of g-functions with standard configurations, e.g. placing the boreholes on a ... -
Approximation of conformal mapping via the Szegő kernel method
(2013-07-20)We study the uniform approximation of the canonical conformal mapping, for a Jordan domain onto the unit disk, by polynomials generated from the partial sums of the Szegő kernel expansion. These polynomials converge to the ... -
ArchivesSpace and covid-19 – radically altering plans for a telecommute environment: how one large academic library is implementing ArchivesSpace
(ArchivesSpace, 2020-05-18)Covid-19 has radically changed most special collections work environments. The initial nine-month plan to begin implementing ArchivesSpace at the University of Oklahoma (OU) – completed just prior to receiving stay-at-home ... -
Are we there yet? How to keep organizational momentum going after the excitement of change is over
(Oklahoma State University, 2017-03) -
Arhodomonas sp. strain Seminole and its genetic potential to degrade aromatic compounds under high-salinity conditions
(American Society for Microbiology, 2014-11)Arhodomonas sp. strain Seminole was isolated from a crude oil-impacted brine soil and shown to degrade benzene, toluene, phenol, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HBA), protocatechuic acid (PCA), and phenylacetic acid (PAA) as the ... -
Arsenic-induced changes in the gene expression of lung epithelial L2 cells: Implications in carcinogenesis
(BioMed Central, 2008-03-03)Background: Arsenic is a carcinogen that is known to induce cell transformation and tumor formation. Although studies have been performed to examine the modulation of signaling molecules caused by arsenic exposure, the ... -
Assessing constancy of substitution rates in viruses over evolutionary time
(BioMed Central, 2010-10-07)Background: Phylogenetic analyses reveal probable patterns of divergence of present day organisms from common ancestors. The points of divergence of lineages can be dated if a corresponding historical or fossil record ... -
Assessing the effects of variables and background selection on the capture of the tick climate niche
(BioMed Central, 2013-09-26)Background: Modelling the environmental niche and spatial distribution of pathogen-transmitting arthropods involves various quality and methodological concerns related to using climate data to capture the environmental ... -
Assessment of codivergence of Mastreviruses with their plant hosts
(BioMed Central, 2008-12-18)Background: Viruses that have spent most of their evolutionary time associated with a single host lineage should have sequences that reflect codivergence of virus and host. Several examples for RNA viruses of host-virus ... -
Assessment of the diversity, abundance, and ecological distribution of members of candidate division SR1 reveals a high level of phylogenetic diversity but limited morphotypic diversity
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009-06)We used a combination of 16S rRNA gene clone library surveys, quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis, and fluorescent in situ hybridization to investigate the diversity, abundance, and distribution of members of candidate division ... -
Assimilation of cholesterol by Lactobacillus acidophilus
(American Society for Microbiology, 1985-02)Considerable variation was found among strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus isolated from the fecal flora of pigs with regard to the ability to grow well in the presence of bile and to assimilate cholesterol from a laboratory ... -
Asymmetric purine-pyrimidine distribution in cellular small RNA population of papaya
(BioMed Central, 2012-12-05)Background: The small RNAs (sRNA) are a regulatory class of RNA mainly represented by the 21 and 24-nucleotide size classes. The cellular sRNAs are processed by RNase III family enzyme dicer (Dicer like in plant) from a ... -
Attaching boundary planes to irreducible open 3-manifolds
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 1996) -
Automated laboratory method for measuring CO2 emissions from soils
(American Society of AgronomyCrop Science Society of AmericaSoil Science Society of America, 2018-04-12)A gas chromatography (GC) headspace method was developed for soil microbial respiration (CO2 emission) analysis after a 24-h incubation of a rewetted soil. The GC method was compared with the Solvita CO2 burst method by ... -
Automated scoring of writing
(Springer Nature, 2023-09-15)For decades, automated essay scoring (AES) has operated behind the scenes of major standardized writing assessments to provide summative scores of students’ writing proficiency (Dikli in J Technol Learn Assess 5(1), 2006). ... -
Autoxidation of tetralin in water catalysed by cobalt(ii)-pyridine complexes bound to polymer colloids
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 1988)Cobalt(ii)-pyridine complexes bound to 60 nm diameter latex copolymers of styrene, divinylbenzene, and either acrylic or methacrylic acid catalyse autoxidation of tetralin in water faster than cobalt(ii)-pyridine complexes ... -
Avian response to landscape change in fragmented southern Great Plains grasslands
(Ecological Society of America, 2001)We examined the dynamics of avian communities associated with fragmented grasslands in Oklahoma, USA, using long-term (1965-1995) raw (stop-level) data from the Breeding Bird Survey (BBS). Aerial photography was used to ...
