Attitudes Of Counselor Educators Toward Persons With Disabilities, Adrianne Johnson May 2007

Attitudes Of Counselor Educators Toward Persons With Disabilities, Adrianne Johnson

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of nine variables with attitudes of Counselor Educators toward persons with disabilities. The objective was to identify several potential variables that may influence attitudes. Nine variables were examined to test their relationship with attitude among the participants. An analysis was completed of the significance between each of the factors and attitude as measured by the SADP (Antonak, 1981). The independent variables were: a) age; b) gender; c) ethnicity; d) amount of contact with disabled persons; e) knowledge of disability legislation; f) comfort with type of disability; g) theoretical orientation; h) …


The Evolution Of Protein Components Of Insect Spermtail Axonemes, Lisa M. Griffith Jan 2007

The Evolution Of Protein Components Of Insect Spermtail Axonemes, Lisa M. Griffith

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Drosophilids spermtails are considered to be the peacock feathers of the world of sperm, by virtue of their incredible length. This extreme length may be supported by their use of a unique, specialized, testis-specific Beta2 tubulin. Beta2 has a highly stringent structure/function relationship to the Drosophilid spermtail axoneme, such that even small amino acid changes render it non-functional. How then, does this protein evolve, while maintaining is function? We hypothesize that it may need to co-evolve with other axonemal proteins. Here, one and two dimensional gel electrophoresis was used to compare the testes proteomes of several fly species in an …
