Rapports de recherche scientifique

Les maux de dos sont coûteux pour les travailleurs et les employeurs. Il est reconnu que l’origine des maux de dos réside partiellement dans des perturbations du rôle mécanique normal des tissus et structures internes du tronc. Pour la plupart des activités de la vie courante, le tronc joue un rôle primordial dans la transmission des forces entre les membres inférieurs et supérieurs. Les muscles du tronc sont les principaux responsables de sa stabilité et de sa mobilité en fonction des besoins de l’activité effectuée.

Pour quantifier et étudier les phénomènes internes se produisant au niveau des structures anatomiques, une …

The Stigma Of Obesity : Beliefs About And Attitudes Toward Fat/Obese Persons, Sally Jean Clute Jan 1998

The Stigma Of Obesity : Beliefs About And Attitudes Toward Fat/Obese Persons, Sally Jean Clute

Dissertations and Theses

This research explores the relationship between beliefs about and attitudes toward fat/obese persons, specifically in regard to issues of attribution and perceived responsibility for the physical condition. The purpose of the research is to assess the extent to which fat/obese persons are derogated, given whether or not they are perceived to be held responsible for their fatness/obesity. It utilizes attribution theory (Heider, 1958; Jones & Davis, 1965; Kelley, 1967; Weiner, 1986), in particular, internal locus of control and issues of consensus and distinctiveness (Kelley, 1967) and controllability (Weiner, 1986). The main hypothesis is that fat/obese people will be viewed more …

Vegetable Ipm In Africa: Current Status And Future Prospects With Emphasis On Eastern And Southern Africa, B. Loehr, A. A. Seif, B. Nyambo Jan 1998

Vegetable Ipm In Africa: Current Status And Future Prospects With Emphasis On Eastern And Southern Africa, B. Loehr, A. A. Seif, B. Nyambo

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

The production of vegetables in many parts of Africa is basically a small-holder entreprise. However, knowledge on and the use of IPM is scanty. Inadequate IPM awareness among policy makers and donor agencies has resulted to the lack of national IPM policies. Historically, research and extension has concentrated on staples to the comparative neglect of vegetables despite being important component of daily dietary intake and source of income for small-holders. Current research and extension, which is primarily donor-driven, is focused on a few selected crops and problems, and is not necessarily addressing the real needs of the producers and local …


Suitability Of Busseola Fusca And Sesamia Calamistis (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) For The Development Of Two Populations Of Cotesia Sesamiae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) In Kenya, A. J. Ngi-Song, W. A. Overholt, R. Stouthamer Jan 1998

Suitability Of Busseola Fusca And Sesamia Calamistis (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) For The Development Of Two Populations Of Cotesia Sesamiae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) In Kenya, A. J. Ngi-Song, W. A. Overholt, R. Stouthamer

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

The suitability of Sesamia calamistis Hampson and Busseola fusca (Fuller) for the development of two geographical populations of Cotesia sesamiae (Cameron) was examined in the laboratory. One population of the parasitoid was collected from the coast of Kenya and the other from the inland. Both populations of the parasitoid could develop on S. calamistis. On B. fusca, the inland population of C. sesamiae was able to develop, while the population from the coastal area of Kenya was encapsulated. Mating studies revealed that the two parasitoid populations were partially reproductively isolated. Unidirectional incompatibility, possibly caused by the Wolbachia infection, was observed …


Fat Body Triacylglycerol Lipase In Solitary And Gregarious Phases Of Schistocerca Gregaria (Forskal) (Orthoptera: Acrididae), Dorington O. Ogoyi, Ellie O. Osir, Norah K. Olembo Jan 1998

Fat Body Triacylglycerol Lipase In Solitary And Gregarious Phases Of Schistocerca Gregaria (Forskal) (Orthoptera: Acrididae), Dorington O. Ogoyi, Ellie O. Osir, Norah K. Olembo

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

The activities of the fat body triacylglycerol lipase were determined using 14C-trioleoylglycerol. Resting activities were estimated at 1.98 ± 0.24 and 1.95 ± 0.53 nmol free fatty acid (FFA)/hr/mg protein for gregarious and solitary locusts, respectively. Administration of adipokinetic hormone (AKH) I led to the activation of lipase with peak activities occurring after 30 min. In the solitary locusts, activities of 2.28 ± 0.16 and 2.30 ± 0.43 nmol FFA/hr/mg were obtained following administration of 10 and 2 pmol AKH I, respectively. In the gregarious locusts, enzyme activities of 3.17 ± 0.66 and 2.47 ± 0.39 nmol FFA/hr/mg were obtained …


The Magnitude Of Site And Time Interaction Effect In Tsetse Fly (Diptera: Glossinidae) Trap Catches, A. Odulaja, S. Mihok, I. M. Abu-Zinid Jan 1998

The Magnitude Of Site And Time Interaction Effect In Tsetse Fly (Diptera: Glossinidae) Trap Catches, A. Odulaja, S. Mihok, I. M. Abu-Zinid

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

Site and time effects are important factors determining trap catches of tsetse flies. These factors may interact significantly and therefore confound interpretation of time series data used for population monitoring. We therefore investigated the magnitude and importance of site x time interactions in trap catches of Glossina pallidipes Austen and G. longipennis Corti using a 2200 trap-days (400 trap-months) data set. The interaction was found to be significant (P < 0.05) in 46-100% of the combinations of different numbers of months and sites between 2 and 12. The mean percent variance due to the interaction ranged between 4% and 28% for G. pallidipes and 12% and 36% for G. longipennis. The interaction was usually less important than the effect of site alone but more important than the effect of time alone. These results suggest that tsetse researchers should examine critically the adequacy of existing approaches to population monitoring with traps and to testing new traps and odour baits.


Judicial Review Of Discount Rates Used In Regulatory Cost-Benefit Analysis, Edward R. Morrison Jan 1998

Judicial Review Of Discount Rates Used In Regulatory Cost-Benefit Analysis, Edward R. Morrison

Faculty Scholarship

Executive orders, statutes, and precedent increasingly require cost-benefit analysis of regulations. Presidential executive orders have long required executive agencies to submit regulatory impact analyses to the Office of Management and Budget ("OMB") before issuing regulations, and recent federal legislation exhibits a trend toward mandatory cost-benefit analysis. For example, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, and the recent Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments require the Environmental Protection Agency to balance costs and benefits in regulating chemicals and pesticides. In 1995, Congress passed the Unfunded Mandates Act, requiring cost-benefit analysis of all significant federal regulations that …

A Case Study Of An Electively Mute Child, Robert Driscol Jan 1998

A Case Study Of An Electively Mute Child, Robert Driscol

Graduate Research Papers

Selective mutism is characterized by the appropriate use of language in certain settings, with a consistent lack of language use elsewhere. The child is often viewed as shy, and it is assumed that the shyness is temporary and will be outgrown. The purpose of this paper is to explore the problem of selective mutism in school aged children for whom silence may extend for many months or even years. Selective mutism will be further defined, and frequency, duration, and a summary of treatment methods will be discussed. A case study that illustrates positive outcomes of a behavioral approach will also …


Continuing The Strengthening Of Situation Analysis Methodology: An Africa-Focused Approach, Robert A. Miller Jan 1998

Continuing The Strengthening Of Situation Analysis Methodology: An Africa-Focused Approach, Robert A. Miller

Reproductive Health

In 1995, the Population Council’s Africa OR/TA Project II proposed a three-year subproject to organize and strengthen the Situation Analysis methodology that had been developed by the first Africa OR/TA Project in 1989. This subproject proposed to concentrate on three areas of continuing importance in the African context: wider use of the established database to explore program issues in reproductive health (RH); synthesis of the knowledge that has been collected about African family planning (FP) programs into a monograph analyzing program issues, patterns of services, and their implications; and continued assistance in training and data processing on field studies. These …
