The Effect Of Telepathic Assistance On Performance In A Visual Target-Search Task, James A. Wachtel Jan 2002

The Effect Of Telepathic Assistance On Performance In A Visual Target-Search Task, James A. Wachtel

Masters Theses

Given the significant controversy regarding parapsychology and the study of psi phenomena, there appear to be opportunities to improve design in parapsychological experimentation through the use of more sensitive and reliable means of measurement. The current study was an attempt to introduce a design that employs time as an outcome measurement, the use of groups and individuals as opposed to just individuals, and the use of more specific and focused content through the use of problem-solving tasks, in an attempt to create a sensitive and replicable experiment in telepathy. Twenty-three undergraduate participants completed 12 trials each by finding targets in …


Modulation Of Apolipoprotein E Expression And Glial Activation In Mouse Olfactory Bulb During Estrous Cycle: An Immunohistochemical Study, Matthew Kircher Jan 2002

Modulation Of Apolipoprotein E Expression And Glial Activation In Mouse Olfactory Bulb During Estrous Cycle: An Immunohistochemical Study, Matthew Kircher

Masters Theses

Estrogen (E2) plasma levels fluctuate as a function of estrous cycling in the mouse. Apolipoprotein E (apoE) mRNA has been shown to increase in both hippocampal astrocytes and microglia during proestrus when plasma estrogen levels are high. The current study was designed to evaluate apoE localization and glial activation in mouse olfactory bulb (OB) as a function of the estrous cycle. In the rat OB, estrogen receptor β (ERβ) is present in the glomerular and external plexiform layers, but not the internal plexiform and granule cell layers. Normal female mice 2-3 months old at the start of the study were …


Aging Coyotes Using Dental Characteristics, Michelle Maher Jan 2002

Aging Coyotes Using Dental Characteristics, Michelle Maher

Masters Theses

The accepted methods of age determination in the coyote (Canis latrans) are either highly subjective and unquantifiable or expensive and require the extraction of the canine tooth. Since neither of these methods are ideal, their limitations have impeded research on this species. Therefore, it was my objective to (1) develop and test the accuracy and precision of a descriptive key based on tooth wear patterns on the lower canine tooth, (2) develop and test the reliability of multiple regression models for aging coyotes using measurements from extracted teeth, and (3) suggest criteria for improving the consistency of results …


Reproductive Biology Of Stylisma Pickeringii (Convolvulaceae), An Endangered Plant Of Illinois Sand Prairies, Brent L. Todd Jan 2002

Reproductive Biology Of Stylisma Pickeringii (Convolvulaceae), An Endangered Plant Of Illinois Sand Prairies, Brent L. Todd

Masters Theses

The sand prairie is a unique ecosystem in the state of Illinois, being the habitat for many interesting plants and animals not found elsewhere in the state. One such plant is the state-endangered Stylisma pickeringii (Torr. ex M.A. Curtis) Gray var. pattersoni (Fern. & Schub.) Myint (Convolvulaceae), also known as Patterson's bindweed or Patterson's dawn flower. It currently is found in only three Illinois counties—Cass, Henderson, and Mason. Presently, two of the three populations of S. pickeringii are located on private lands. Very little information is known about the reproductive biology of S. pickeringii var. pattersoni. Thus, the purpose of …


Women's Heart Of Sorrow: Versions Of The Truyen Kieu In The Works Of Duong Thu Huong And Le Ly Hayslip, Vi Tran Jan 2002

Women's Heart Of Sorrow: Versions Of The Truyen Kieu In The Works Of Duong Thu Huong And Le Ly Hayslip, Vi Tran

Masters Theses

Nguyen Du's Truyen Kieu or Tale of Kieu has arguably provided a life model for Vietnamese females. The poem's influence extends in important ways to contemporary Vietnamese writers as well, including those as politically and artistically diverse as Duong Thu Huong and Le Ly Hayslip. In Novel Without a Name, Paradise of the Blind and Memories of a Pure Spring, Duong Thu Huong transforms the terms of Nguyen Du's poem to those of Vietnam during its revolutionary period and today. As an overseas Vietnamese who had earlier experienced prostitution and the moral chaos of war, Le Ly Hayslip's …
