To Bolivia And Back: Migration And Its Impact On La Crete, Alberta, Dawn S. Bowen

Geography Articles

The article focuses on the migration of Mennonites from Bolivia to La Crete, Alberta. It examines the social and economic impact of migration and outlines the measures taken by La Crete citizens as demands for housing, employment, and the provision of education and health services increased. It believes that the migration of the Mennonites, which started in the 1930s, affected the social and economic evolution of the said region and brought new economic opportunities including logging and sawmill work, trucking, and construction.

Dysfunctional Cognitions: Associations With Perfectionistic Thinking Utilizing The Positive And Negative Perfectionism Construct, Jennifer E. Nyland

McNair Scholars Journal

Historically, perfectionism has been associated with symptomatologies such as depression, anxiety, and procrastination (Hewitt & Flett, 1991). However, a newer construct expands and includes both positive and negative aspects to perfectionism (Flett, Russo, & Hewitt, 1994; Frost, Marten, Lahart, & Rosenblatt, 1990; Hamachek, 1978; Norman, Davies, Nicholson, Cortese, & Malla, 1998; Terry-Short, Owens, Slade, & Dewey, 1995). Maximization has been defined by tendencies similar to negative perfectionism. Cognitive distortion has been associated with depression and anxiety; however, little research has evaluated cognitive distortions in relation to perfectionism. This study examines associations of positive and negative perfectionism, cognitive distortion, and maximization. …

Cultural Influences On The Formation Of Interpersonal Intentions, Susan Polanco

McNair Scholars Journal

The formation of interpersonal intentions has been a central theme in socialpsychological research for over twenty years. Existing psychological models propose that attitudes, social norms, and moral obligations often combine to form intentions. These models will be utilized to develop individual indexes of the relative influence of attitudes, norms, and moral obligations in forming intentions. These indexes will then be correlated with measures of locus of control, selfmonitoring, and individualism-collectivism in order to explore the extent to which personal and cultural factors influence the intention-formation process.

Explanations For The Decline In Child Sexual Abuse Cases., David Finkelhor, Lisa M. Jones

Crimes Against Children Research Center

Discusses the decline in the number of sexual abuse cases substantiated by child protective service agencies between 1992 and 2000. This OJJDP Crimes Against Children Bulletin explores the strengths and weaknesses of six possible explanations for the decline by using data from a number of different sources: aggregate data from the National Child Abuse and Neglect Data System; detailed child protective service data from Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, and Pennsylvania; and self-report data from the National Crime Victimization Survey and from schoolchildren in Minnesota.

Qsar Study Of Skin Sensitization Using Local Lymph Node Assay Data, Adam Fedorowicz, Lingyi Zheng, Harshinder Singh, Eugene Demchuk

Faculty & Staff Scholarship

Allergic Contact Dermatitis (ACD) is a common work-related skin disease that often develops as a result of repetitive skin exposures to a sensitizing chemical agent. A variety of experimental tests have been suggested to assess the skin sensitization potential. We applied a method of Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) to relate measured and calculated physical-chemical properties of chemical compounds to their sensitization potential. Using statistical methods, each of these properties, called molecular descriptors, was tested for its propensity to predict the sensitization potential. A few of the most informative descriptors were subsequently selected to build a model of skin sensitization. In …

Electrostatic Potential On Human Leukocyte Antigen: Implications For Putative Mechanism Of Chronic Beryllium Disease., James A. Snyder, Ainsley Weston, Sally S. Tinkle, Eugene Demchuk

Faculty & Staff Scholarship

The pathobiology of chronic beryllium disease (CBD) involves the major histocompatibility complex class II human leukocyte antigen (HLA). Although occupational exposure to beryllium is the cause of CBD, molecular epidemiologic studies suggest that specific (Italic)HLA-DPB1(/Italic) alleles may be genetic susceptibility factors. We have studied three-dimensional structural models of HLA-DP proteins encoded by these genes. The extracellular domains of HLA-DPA1*0103/B1*1701, *1901, *0201, and *0401, and HLA-DPA1*0201/B1*1701, *1901, *0201, and *0401 were modeled from the X-ray coordinates of an HLA-DR template. Using these models, the electrostatic potential at the molecular surface of each HLA-DP was calculated and compared. These comparisons identify specific …
