Development And Characterization Of A Model Latent Herpes Simplex Virus Infection In Cultured Cells, James Varani

Theses and Dissertations

Herpes simplex virus is the classic example of a virus which persists indefinitely in the host following the initial infection. Recurrent episodes of active virus growth characterize the infection in some individuals . In addition to the periodic flair-ups of active virus growth, the persistence of virus may be expressed in a more subtle way. It is possible that one or more types of human cancer result from the persistence of this virus in the host.

The exact mechanism by which the virus is maintained in the host between outbreaks of active growth is not known. It is usually not …

Personality Dimensions Of Drinking Patterns In Hospitalized Male Alcoholics, Donald J. Mccullagh

Theses and Dissertations

Research concerning alcoholism and personality has often been based upon the single syndrome concept of alcoholism. At the theoretical level it has been recognized that different personality patterns exist among alcoholics. However, few researchers have addressed themselves to this area. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a relationship existed between alcoholic drinking patterns and alcoholism severity based on the responses to the Alcohol Use Questionnaire and personality traits as measured by Cattell's Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire.

The sample consisted of 101 white males admitted to a midwestern alcoholism treatment center during a three month period in 1974. …

Behavioral Effects Of Postnatal Zinc Deficiency And Kryptopyrrole In The Rat, Peter C. Peterson

Theses and Dissertations

Zinc deficiency has been shown to have a wide range of behavioral effects in the rat. The experiments presented below were conducted to determine the effects of postnatal zinc deficiency (birth-21 days) on avoidance learning and on measures of emotionality. Kryptopyrrole, a substance which has been shown to produce "catatonic" freezing behavior and atypical electrical activity in rat brains, was administered to half of the Ss to study possible zinc deficiency-kryptopyrrole interactions.

Dams were made zinc deficient from the day of delivery until day 21 on a diet contaning less than 1 ppm zinc. Two dietary control groups were used: …

Early Postnatal Zinc Deficiency And Aggression In The Rat, Mark J. Hanlon

Theses and Dissertations

The effects of a transitory zinc deficiency on subsequent aggression were assessed. Eleven Sprague Dawley dams were assigned to three dietary conditions.on days 1—21 postpartum. They were fed either a low zinc diet (less than 1 ppm) or an equal amount of the same diet but with zinc supplementation via their water supply, or unrestricted amounts of the zinc supplemented regimen. Within the first two days postpartum, litter sizes were equalized. All dams were returned to zinc adequate diets on day 22, and the pups were weaned on day 24. Food intake data for pups and dams were recorded as …

Theses and Dissertations

Total histones were extracted from the cerebellum, cerebrum, liver, thymus and kidney of thirty 12 day old albino rats. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of twenty-five μg of histone from the various organs was carried out. The F₁, F₃, F_2a2 plus F_2b and F_2a1 components were separated into distinct bands and the relative percent of the various bands on the gels were determined by scanning the gels through a densitometer. The relative distribution of the histone components from the various organs was compared. It was found that there was no significant difference in the distribution …

A Study Of The Ontology Of Evil In The Educational Philosophy Of Martin Buber, Laud Oswald Vaught

Theses and Dissertations

Martin Buber preferred to be known as a philosophical anthropologist rather than a philosopher, theologian, or teacher. Any of these titles are properly used since the scope of his writings contribute significantly to each of these fields.

It is the purpose of this paper to show that what he had to say concerning the Ontology of Evil is significant in the study of educational theory and that his own educational philosophy was influenced by his presuppositions concerning the nature of evil.

Chapter II is devoted to the literature relating to the basic elements of this study: the problem of evil, …

The procedure involved the following steps: (1) A compilation of a Patchen bibliography. (2) A week in California with Mrs. Patchen during which time I surveyed the artist's entire output of picture-poems and, based upon my critical judgment of the …

An Experimental Examination Of Cautela's Covert Sensitization As A Smoking Reduction Technique, Jerome Irwin Weiss

Theses and Dissertations

Experimental studies investigating the aversive imagery technique of Covert Sensitization as a cigarette smoking deterrent have not clearly testified to its effectiveness. They have either deviated from Cautela’s technique and/or confounded their results by adding other components to it.

The present study tested the hypothesis that the successful results of Covert Sensitization requires both therapist-administered treatment and instructions that Subjects (Ss) also self-administer treatment. The self-administered treatment (homework) consisted of Ss imagining Covert Sensitization scenes twice a day between meetings with the Experimenter (E).

Thirty-six habitual smokers were randomly assigned to one of three training groups; one group of twelve …
