Kinda Just Like Google: Presence And Variety Of Search Options On Library Homepages, Jimmy Ghaphery, Susan Teague Rector, Sam Byrd Jan 2008

Kinda Just Like Google: Presence And Variety Of Search Options On Library Homepages, Jimmy Ghaphery, Susan Teague Rector, Sam Byrd

VCU Libraries Faculty and Staff Publications

In order to take the temperature of the academic library community with regard to external search boxes, the authors visited 111 academic ARL Library web sites on October 9th, 2007. In visiting each homepage, a record was kept detailing the presence and type of search boxes appearing at the top level. The resulting data paints an interesting portrait of diverse approaches, congruencies, and innovation. Globally this measure strikes to the core of current technological challenges with library search and web site design.

Renaissance Web Tv: New Media Promoting Sphere Participation & Information Society Increasing Innovative Business Practices, Joanna James Jan 2008

Renaissance Web Tv: New Media Promoting Sphere Participation & Information Society Increasing Innovative Business Practices, Joanna James

Graduate Student Dissertations, Theses, Capstones, and Portfolios

New media have emerged over the last decade and are increasingly changing business practices within the media industry. Specifically this creative project addresses some of the challenges the television market is encountering, and how it is currently in the process of migrating to the World Wide Web. During this transitional moment in technology, this creative project introduces the proposal for Renaissance Web TV, an interactive Web platform that creates and produces its own original broadcast quality programming for the Web. This is an opportune moment to enter into the television market through Web video. This creative project explores how a …

Evaluating The Effects Of Sensory Focus And Distraction On Ethnic Differences In Reports Of Laboratory Induced Pain, Regina Lynette Mcconley Jan 2008

Evaluating The Effects Of Sensory Focus And Distraction On Ethnic Differences In Reports Of Laboratory Induced Pain, Regina Lynette Mcconley

All ETDs from UAB

There is consistent evidence of ethnic group differences in pain response in clinical and laboratory settings. However, few studies have examined potential contributors to the group differences, or assessed the efficacy of interventions to reduce pain across ethnic groups. The aims of the study were to: 1. Compare African Americans and non-Hispanic Whites’ (NH Whites) scores on the Pain Catastrophizing Scale, 2. Compare the pain responses (e.g., pain threshold, tolerance, intensity and unpleasantness) of African Americans and NH Whites in response to the Cold Pressor Procedure (CPT), and 3. Evaluate the effects of sensory focus and distraction interventions on pain …


Free -Knot Splines And Bootstrapping For Nonlinear Modeling In Complex Samples, Scott W. Keith Jan 2008

Free -Knot Splines And Bootstrapping For Nonlinear Modeling In Complex Samples, Scott W. Keith

All ETDs from UAB

Studies on body mass index (BMI) as it relates to headache or mortality have noted considerable nonlinearity. Approaches to rigorously analyzing these relationships have been limited to generalized linear models and survival models using either categorizations or polynomials of BMI. I have designed, evaluated, and implemented a piecewise linear logistic regression framework for modeling nonlinearity between a binary outcome and a continuous predictor, such as BMI, adjusted for covariates in complex samples. Least squares and maximum likelihood estimation methods were used to numerically optimize free-knot splines. Inference methods utilized both parametric and nonparametric bootstrapping. Parameter estimates were structured for interpretability …


Hospice Use In Alabama: A Cross-Sectional Assessment, Todd M. Jenkins Jan 2008

Hospice Use In Alabama: A Cross-Sectional Assessment, Todd M. Jenkins

All ETDs from UAB

The purpose of this investigation was to describe and compare patterns of hospice use in Alabama and to assess barriers to receiving such care as perceived by hospice providers across the state. We used death certificate and other administrative records from the Alabama Center for Health Statistics to ascertain hospice use during the years 2002 to 2005. Crude rates of hospice use were calculated across individual and area-level characteristics. Prevalence ratios were calculated using modified Poisson regression to evaluate the impact of these factors on hospice use. To assess barriers to hospice care, all hospices in Alabama (N = 193) …
