Human Services: A Discussion Paper, David Wiles

Research outputs pre 2011

Human services is an emergent field of study and work in Australia. Its definition is complex, needing continuing theoretical and empirical clarification. Despite the contemporary decline of the Australian welfare state, human services has emerged in cultural congruence with historic Australian notions of a 'fair go', of social equity, and of social egalitarianism. Human services constitutes a nascent profession, which - in the main - helps people with problems, particularly including members of the social 'underclass'. With much of its origins in volunteerism and the voluntary sector, human service organisational theory is now developing, and is helping workers and students …

The Effects Of Counterexplanation And Audit Groups On Fraud Detection, Janne Chung, Gary S. Monroe

Research outputs pre 2011

Prior studies have found that auditors' fraud detection rates are relatively low (Bernardi 1994; Pincus 1991 ). The present study examines whether counterexplaining inaccurate judgments will increase fraud detection rates and whether audit groups can counterexplain more effectively compared to individual auditors. The possible negative effect of counterexplanation is examined by requiring audit groups and individual auditors to counterexplain accurate judgments. The purpose of this 'inanipulatiori is to determine whether counterexplaining accurate judgments will lead to negative belief revision, and whether this negative belief revision will be mitigated by the use of audit groups. A 2 x 2 x 2 …

Expedient Method To Determine Active Zone Depth For Expansive Soils In The St. Louis, Missouri Area, Robert Allen Abbott

Masters Theses

"A laboratory testing program was developed to formulate a relationship which could be used to estimate the active zone depth at a given site with the index properties of the potentially expansive soils at the site. The testing program utilized standard consolidometers to incrementally add moisture to soil specimens to determine a swell versus soil suction index. Tests were performed on laboratory manufactured soil specimens of commercial clay to validate the testing methodology.

A QUATTRO PRO computer spreadsheet was developed to perform the calculations to determine the potential field surface heave for the soils tested provided they were at a …

Republican Legal Systems, Mortimer N.S. Sellers

Book Chapters

This paper discusses the basic attributes of republican legal systems. I will suggest that republican principles provide the only sound basis for a just legal order, and conclude that all laws in all jurisdictions deserve public deference only to the extent that they reflect republican structures of government and legislation.

The Expression And Maturation Of The Ornithine Decarboxylase Antizyme Peptide In Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells, Lisa Kozinski

Honors Capstones

The polyamines, spermidine and spermine, and their precursor, putrescine are cations that are absolutely necessary for cell growth and viability. A protein called ornithine decarboxylase antizyme was previously found to be a regulator of both polyamine biosynthesis and transport in mammalian cells. Although there is only one gene for antizyme, two forms of the protein (29.5 kDa and 24 kDa) are known to coexist. Some researchers speculate that expression of the shorter peptide (24 kDa) results from initiation of translation at a second start downstream from the primary AUG. An alternative hypothesis is that a post-translational modification of the 29.5 …
