Timing Of Metamorphosis In A Freshwater Crustacean: Comparison With Anuran Models, Saran Twombly Jan 1996

Timing Of Metamorphosis In A Freshwater Crustacean: Comparison With Anuran Models, Saran Twombly

Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

Many crustaceans have complex life cycles characterized by a metamorphosis, yet variation in metamorphic traits, and the causes and consequences of this variation, have rarely been examined. Food concentrations were changed during specific larval stages of the freshwater copepod Mesocyclops edax Forbes (Copepoda: Cyclopoida) to examine whether age and size at metamorphosis remain flexible or become fixed during the larval period. Results were compared to predictions of both flexible (the Wilbur—Collins model) and fixed (Leips—Travis model) rate models for the timing of amphibian metamorphosis. Age and size at metamorphosis were variable in all treatments, and age was always more variable …

Perceived Adequacy Of Retirement Income, Y. Lakshmi Malroutu, Jing Jian Xiao Jan 1995

Perceived Adequacy Of Retirement Income, Y. Lakshmi Malroutu, Jing Jian Xiao

Human Development and Family Science Faculty Publications

Data from the 1989 Survey of Consumer Finance were used to examine the effect of socio- demographic, human capital, work related, and objective variables on perceived adequacy of retirement income of preretirees. A multivariate probit analysis showed that younger respondents, whites, those with incomes between $10,000 and $19,999, females, and self-employed were less likely to perceive their future retirement income to be adequate than otherwise similar households. When subjective variables were added to the analysis, planning to save within 5 years was positively related to preretirees' perception of having adequate retirement income

Housing Needs Assessment Of Persons With Disabilities In Rhode Island, Sudhakar Hedge Jan 1990

Housing Needs Assessment Of Persons With Disabilities In Rhode Island, Sudhakar Hedge

Open Access Master's Theses

It is estimated that there are thirty six million Americans who have limited mobility due to a temporary or permanent physical disability. Yet a disabled person need not be handicapped. "Handicappism" is a concept generated and perpetuated by the nondisabled community and its institutions. The word "handicap" implies irreparable damage. However, people with disabilities often view their physical limitations more in terms of the inconveniences imposed upon them by an environment designed for the able bodied.

Institutionalization once hid the needs of the disabled from our view, but changing attitudes, improved medical care, and technical advancements have made it possible …
