A Contextual Approach To Investigating Verbal And Nonverbal Behaviors, Douglas M. Brooks, Barry Wilson

Faculty Publications

This investigation utilized a recent concept developed by researchers and theoreticians studying nonverbal behavior--the contextual framework. Instruments of demonstrated reliability were employed to record simultaneous verbal and nonverbal data within the selected contextual framework of student-initiated questions. Data was collected at the University of Northern Iowa; Malcolm Price Laboratory School. The study sample included 15 teachers from grades one through twelve and 60 pupils. Pupils were placed in categories by their teachers: (1) accepting; (2) concerned; (3) indifferent; and (4) rejecting. Objectives of the investigation included: (1) to investigate physical proximity as a quantifiable dimension of nonverbal behavior; (2) to …

The Role Of A Dolichol-Oligosaccharide As An Intermediate In Glycoprotein Biosynthesis, An-Fei Hsu, John W. Baynes, Edward C. Heath

Faculty Publications

Incubation of mouse myeloma microsomes with GDP-[(14)C]mannose results in the biosynthesis of [(14)C]mannose phosphoryl dolichol [Baynes, J. W., Hsu, A.-F. & Heath, E. C. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 5693-5704] and a [(14)C]mannose- and N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc)-containing oligosaccharide derivative of dolichol. Thus, [(14)C]mannose phosphoryl dolichol and [(14)C]mannose-labeled oligosaccharide pyrophosphoryl dolichol were isolated from incubation mixtures by solubilization in 2% (w/v) Triton X-100 and the lipids were separated from small molecules by gel filtration fractionation. After removal of radioactive protein from the preparation, the two lipid derivatives were separated quantitatively by fractionation on a concanavalin A-Sepharose column; [(14)C]mannose phosphoryl dolichol was not …

Spectral Distributions And The Breaking Of Isospin And Supermultiplet Symmetries In Nuclei, K. T. Hecht, J. P. Draayer

Faculty Publications

Knowledge of the Racah algebra for the higher unitary groups is exploited to give a general formula for the partial widths for the direct product subgroup U( N k)× U(k) of the full unitary group U(N) of a given shell model vector space. This formula makes it possible to separate the second moments of dynamical operators into the internal and external parts which are needed for detailed applications of the spectral distribution technique. Specific applications are made for k = 2 (isospin) and k = 4 (Wigner supermultiplet symmetry). Explicit expressions are given for the isospin breaking contributions to the …

Products Liability--The Meaning Of Defect, David A. Fischer

Faculty Publications

In the products liability area the pendulum has now swung back to the imposition of strict liability. This transition, beginning with the elimination of the privity requirement in negligence actions, continuing with the imposition of strict liability under a warranty theory, and culminating in the development of a tort theory of recovery in strict liability, has been well-documented.

The Planner’S Image: The Impact Of Expertise On Development Planning And Policymaking (Phd Dissertation), Melvin J. Dubnick

Faculty Publications

The purpose of this work is to develop a concept useful for analyzing the impact of a planner’s perception on Third World development planning successes. Borrowing extensively from Kenneth Boulding’s work, the Image concept is developed and used as a basis for the analysis.

In Chapter I, the failure of Third World development planning is discussed, along with some of the causes attributed to it. One such cause is found in the perceptions and orientations of the planning expert. That this causal factor has not been frequently and systematically investigated probably results from the lack of a sufficient framework for …

Structure Calculations For 25Mg-25Al, J. P. Draayer

Faculty Publications

The results of a shell model calculation for 25Mg-25Al are presented in which the Hamiltonian for the system was taken to be that of an inert 16O core plus nine s-d shell particles interacting through the usual one-body l2 and l · s terms plus general two-body residual interactions of the Kuo-Brown type. The basis was truncated to include nine favored representations of SU(3) in each of the two leading spatial symmetries ([441]: (66), (93), (74), (82)2, (55)2, (28), (90); [432]: (10,1), (74), (82)2, (55)2, (28), (47), (90)). It is found that a (λμ)-dependent renormalization of the type proposed by …

Proposal: Pioneer Venus Orbiter Mission Magnetic Field Investigation, Edward J. Smith, Leverett Davis Jr., Douglas E. Jones, Bruce T. Tsurutani

Faculty Publications

The magnetic field investigation on the Venus Orbiter Mission must provide sensitive, accurate measurements of the magnetic field at all locations along the spacecraft orbit. In addition to being able to search for and measure any weak global magnetic field that may exist, the magnetometer must have the capability of measuring fields at frequencies high enough to permit a comprehensive study of the bow shock, the region between the shock and the ionopause, the expansion fan and the wake. Accurate measurements outside the interaction region must be made in order to provide necessary information concerning the configuration of the perturbing …

Rotationally Inelastic Molecular Scattering. Computational Tests Of Some Simple Solutions Of The Strong Coupling Problem, Thomas P. Tsien, Gregory A. Parker, Russell T. Pack

Faculty Publications

Partial cross sections (opacity functions) for rotational transitions in atom-diatom collisions are computed in the infinite-order sudden (IOS) approximation and compared with accurate close-coupling (CC) calculations. Agreement is good in the dominant coupling (small total angular momentum J) region. Simple methods for calculating integral inelastic cross sections are discussed, and it is found that accurate cross sections can often be computed very simply, even when large numbers of channels are coupled together, by using IOS or first-order sudden (FOS) approximations for small J and CC or exponential Born (EBDW) methods for large J.

A Model Of Criminal Dispositions: An Alternative To Official Discretion In Sentencing, Larry I. Palmer

Faculty Publications

Professor Palmer proposes a new model of criminal dispositions which would replace official discretion at sentencing with judicially created standards for sentencing officials. In Part I he outlines the role of the appellate judiciary in developing an interest analysis to enunciate standards to guide criminal dispositions. In Parts Il and III he examines the roles of administrative agencies and legislatures in perfecting the dispositional process under standards initially ariculated by the judiciary. Professor Palmer emphasizes the concept of individual liberty as a central value of society and shows how a new system of criminal dispositions can enhance that value as …

The Role Of Mannosyl-Phosphoryl-Dihydropolyisoprenol In The Synthesis Of Mammalian Glycoproteins, John W. Baynes, An-Fei Hsu, Edward C. Heath

Faculty Publications

A mouse myeloma tumor was used as a model system to study the biochemical steps involved in the incorporation of mannose into glycoproteins. This tumor, MOPC-46B, synthesizes a K-type immunoglobulin light chain (K-46) which is a glycoprotein with a single oligosaccharide side chain containing mannose as one of its constituent sugars. MOPC-46B microsomal preparations contain enzymes which transfer mannose from the sugar nucleotide, GDPmannose, to endogenous lipid and protein acceptors. Formation of the mannolipid proceeds by the reversible transfer of mannose from GDP-mannose to an endogenous phospholipid. The mannolipid was purified and characterized by chemical methods and mass spectrometry as …
