Stress Begins In Kindergarten: A Look At Behavior During Standardized Testing, Pamela O. Fleege, Rosalind Charlesworth, Diane C. Burts, Craig H. Hart Jan 1992

Stress Begins In Kindergarten: A Look At Behavior During Standardized Testing, Pamela O. Fleege, Rosalind Charlesworth, Diane C. Burts, Craig H. Hart

Faculty Publications

Kindergarten children’s behavior before, during, and after standardized achievement testing was explored through a qualitative study in two classrooms (n = 36). Simultaneously quantitative data were collected in one of the classrooms (n = 21) before and during the testing. Data were collected through observations in the classrooms, interviews with children and teachers, and audio and video taping of the children. For the quantitative component of the study, frequencies of stress behaviors were observed using a scan sampling method. Qualitative findings indicated an increase in behaviors reported to be stress related during the testing and a decrease in those behaviors …

Phase Equilibria Of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide And Hydrocarbon Mixtures., Hyo-Guk Lee Jan 1992

Phase Equilibria Of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide And Hydrocarbon Mixtures., Hyo-Guk Lee

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The phase equilibria of supercritical carbon dioxide and hydrocarbon mixtures were studied. Correlation techniques for vapor-liquid and solid-fluid equilibria were studied for binary CO$\sb2$ and hydrocarbon mixtures using existing experimental data. Experimental investigation and correlation of the experimental data were carried out for solid-liquid equilibria of light and heavy hydrocarbon mixtures, and CO$\sb2,$ light and heavy hydrocarbon mixtures. A new technique of vapor-liquid equilibrium calculation by the activity coefficient method was developed and applied to binary CO$\sb2$ and hydrocarbon mixtures. The extrapolated vapor pressure of CO$\sb2$ was used for calculation of the fugacity of pure hypothetical liquid CO$\sb2$ and for …

Quality Enhancement Through Goal-Setting: Examining The Effects Of Goal Attributes And Feedback On Performance., Paula Lynne Phillips Jan 1992

Quality Enhancement Through Goal-Setting: Examining The Effects Of Goal Attributes And Feedback On Performance., Paula Lynne Phillips

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

A laboratory experiment, using 165 students, was conducted to assess the effects of goal type (quantity vs quality), goal difficulty (difficult vs easy), goal specificity (specific vs nonspecific), and feedback type (goal-discrepant vs strategic) on performance. Subjects were asked to perform a heuristic task, appropriate for the assessment of both quantity and quality performance. Results indicated: (a) the provision of quality feedback will increase effort and will improve quality performance; (b) individuals value quality feedback more than they value quantity feedback; (c) individuals are more accurate in their prediction of quantity performance than they are in their prediction of quality …

Continuity Of Affine Transformations Of White Noise Test Functionals And Applications, H. H. Kuo, J. Potthoff, J. A. Yan Jan 1992

Continuity Of Affine Transformations Of White Noise Test Functionals And Applications, H. H. Kuo, J. Potthoff, J. A. Yan

Faculty Publications

Translations and scalings defined on the Schwartz space of tempered distributions induce continuous transformations on the space of white noise test functionals [25]. Continuity of the induced transformations with respect to their parameters is proved. As a consequence one obtains a direct simple proof of the fact that the space of white noise test functionals is infinitely differentiable in Fréchet sense. Moreover, it is shown that the Wiener semigroup acts as a mollifier on the space of test functionals. © 1992.

One-Dimensional Nash Groups, James J. Madden, Charles M. Stanton Jan 1992

One-Dimensional Nash Groups, James J. Madden, Charles M. Stanton

Faculty Publications

A Lie group equipped with a compatible real algebraic structure is called a locally Nash group. We prove some general facts about locally Nash groups, then we classify the one-dimensional locally Nash groups, using a theorem of Weierstrass that characterizes the analytic functions satisfying an algebraic addition theorem. Besides the standard Nash structure on the additive group of real numbers, there are locally Nash structures on the additive reals induced by the exponential function, the sine function, and by any elliptic function that is real on ℝ. There are no other simply connected one-dimensional locally Nash groups. Any two quotients …

Correlation Between Diverse Seismic And Physical Properties Data Sets: Site 763, Southern Exmouth Plateau, J. M. Lorenzo, E. E. Vera Jan 1992

Correlation Between Diverse Seismic And Physical Properties Data Sets: Site 763, Southern Exmouth Plateau, J. M. Lorenzo, E. E. Vera

Faculty Publications

Five major reflectors in multichannel seismic common-depth-point line 667 (acquired with an airgun source), single-channel seismic ODP line 5 (acquired with a high-resolution watergun), and expanded spread profile C2 can be dated and tied to lithologic units. Through an initial τ-sum construction, followed by traveltime and full waveform forward modeling, ESP-derived compressional wave velocities can more accurately match traveltimes of these reflectors than full-reflectivity synthetic seismograms produced from shipboard-derived properties. Instrument calibration, drilling disturbance, and rebound effects suffered by the laboratory samples are sources of error. The authors speculate, based on the physical properties of the units that reflector "b' …

Extensions Of Tutte's Wheels-And-Whirls Theorem, Collette R. Coullard, James G. Oxley Jan 1992

Extensions Of Tutte's Wheels-And-Whirls Theorem, Collette R. Coullard, James G. Oxley

Faculty Publications

Tutte's wheels-and-whirls theorem states that if M is a 3-connected matroid and, for every element e, both the deletion and the contraction of e destroy 3-connectivity, then M is a wheel or a whirl. We prove some extensions of this theorem, one of which states that if M is 3-connected and has both a wheel and a whirl minor, then either M has only seven elements or there is some element the deletion or contraction of which maintains 3-connectivity and leaves a matroid with both a wheel and a whirl minor. © 1992.

The Asymptotic Expansion Of Certain Multi-Dimensional Generalized Functions, R. Estrada, R. P. Kanwal Jan 1992

The Asymptotic Expansion Of Certain Multi-Dimensional Generalized Functions, R. Estrada, R. P. Kanwal

Faculty Publications

We apply regularization of divergent integrals in the derivation of the asymptotic expansion of certain multi-dimensional generalized functions. We further present several illustrations to demonstrate that the asymptotic development of generalized functions provides a lucid formulation of many concepts in asymptotic analysis such as the expansion of oscillatory integrals and the expansion of certain series. © 1992.

Emergence Of Radiation From Gravitational Potential Wells: The Absence Of Ωm Effects, Richard H. Price, Jorge Pullin Jan 1992

Emergence Of Radiation From Gravitational Potential Wells: The Absence Of Ωm Effects, Richard H. Price, Jorge Pullin

Faculty Publications

We consider a source of gravitational waves of frequency ω, located near the center of a massive galaxy of mass M and radius R with ωR-1. The case of odd-parity gravitational waves propagating through a perfect-fluid galaxy is particularly simple; for this case we find that, in addition to the expected redshift of the radiation emerging from the galaxy, there is a small amount of backscatter, of order Mω2R3. We show that there is no suppression of radiative power by the factor 1+ω2M24 as has been recently predicted by Kundu. The origin of Kundu's suppression lies in the interpretation of …

Electron-Pair Analysis For Doubly Excited Ridge States, Lijun Zhang, A. R.P. Rau Jan 1992

Electron-Pair Analysis For Doubly Excited Ridge States, Lijun Zhang, A. R.P. Rau

Faculty Publications

The two-electron Schrödinger equation is analyzed in hyperspherical coordinates, with the electrons described throughout as a pair. In contrast to the current adiabatic hyperspherical method, which reverts at large distances to a description in terms of individual electrons, the pair aspect is preserved also asymptotically. Whereas the adiabatic potential wells converge to single-ionization limits, we develop potential wells converging to the double-ionization limit of the system, and doubly excited states are then viewed as eigenstates of the pair in these wells. At the simplest level, we get series converging to the double-ionization limit which are described analytically by the pair-Rydberg …

Seasonal Response Of Slash Pine (Pinus Elliottii Var. Elliottii Engelm.) Photosynthesis To Long‐Term Exposure To Ozone And Acidic Precipitation, David P. Byres, Jon D. Johnson, Thomas J. Dean Jan 1992

Seasonal Response Of Slash Pine (Pinus Elliottii Var. Elliottii Engelm.) Photosynthesis To Long‐Term Exposure To Ozone And Acidic Precipitation, David P. Byres, Jon D. Johnson, Thomas J. Dean

Faculty Publications

Four half‐sib families of slash pine (Pinus elliottii var. elliottii) were planted in open‐top chambers and exposed to ozone and simulated acidic precipitation (3: 7 molar ratio of nitric and sulphuric acids). The 4 ozone treatments were (1) charcoal‐filtered air, (2) unfiltered ambient air, (3) twice ambient and (4) three times ambient ozone, with treatments applied 12 h per day, 11 months per year for 28 months. Seedlings were irrigated weekly with one of three rain acidities: pH 33, 4.3 or 5.3 at a total rainfall equivalent of 133 cm per year. Photosynthetic rates were measured approximately every 10 weeks, …

Long‐Term Effects Of Ozone And Simulated Acid Rain On The Foliage Dynamics Of Slash Pine (Pinus Elliottii Var. Elliottii Engelm.), David P. Byres, Thomas J. Dean, Jon D. Johnson

Faculty Publications

Seedlings from four half‐sib families of Pinus elliottii var. elliottii Engelm. were planted in open‐top chambers, and exposed to ozone and simulated acidic precipitation. Treatments were applied for 11 months per year for 28 months. The ozone concentrations were: charcoal filtered air (CF), nonfiltered ambient air (1×), twice the nonfiltered level (2 ×) and three times the nonfiltered level (3 ×). Ozone exposures were computer controlled to follow natural diurnal fluctuations in ambient ozone concentrations. Simulated acid rain at pH 3.3, 4.3 or 5.3 was delivered weekly at the same volume as average weekly rainfall to all chambers. Leaf area, …
