A Quantitative Study Of The Relationship Between The Decision-Making Style Of School Principals And Their Faculty And Staffs’ Perception Of Their Leadership Effectiveness, Joshua D. Viola Phd
A Quantitative Study Of The Relationship Between The Decision-Making Style Of School Principals And Their Faculty And Staffs’ Perception Of Their Leadership Effectiveness, Joshua D. Viola Phd
Leadership Studies
Decision-making has been studied and researched for centuries, as have the leadership qualities associated with it. In today’s complicated world, decision-making of organizational leaders is more scrutinized than ever, and this investigation will examine what the decision-making process looks like for principals in public schools (Evans & Semrau, 2015). Organizational leadership and organizational demographics are also compared to decision-making style. This study collected decision-making data from public school principals in Maine who work at schools with 50% or less free and reduced lunch as well as leadership effectiveness data from faculty and staff in those schools. An ANOVA was run …

Reliance On Local Contractors And Messy Withdrawals: Lessons From Afghanistan, Guido Rossi
Reliance On Local Contractors And Messy Withdrawals: Lessons From Afghanistan, Guido Rossi
Journal of Strategic Security
The U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021 highlighted both American unpreparedness for evacuating large numbers of foreign civilians as well over-reliance on local contractors that made the evacuation a task of much greater proportions. As a result, the United States were forced to renege on its promises of protection to many Afghan collaborators who were left behind exposed to Taliban retribution. However, the U.S. could not only have handled the evacuation and resettlement operation of Afghan civilians much more effectively through better contingency planning, interagency communication, and coordination, but it could also have prevented massive reliance on local contractors through …
In Situ Thrust Measurement Of Fish During Locomotion; Test Case: Sharks, Braedon Payne, Bryan A. Keller, Daniel Weihs, Roi Gurka
In Situ Thrust Measurement Of Fish During Locomotion; Test Case: Sharks, Braedon Payne, Bryan A. Keller, Daniel Weihs, Roi Gurka
Physics and Engineering Science
We present a novel method of measuring thrust of aquatic animals using in situ video data of swimming motions. To demonstrate its utility, the method was applied to several large elasmobranch species, which are typically highly challenging to measure. Using motion tracking software, we analyzed video footage of wild and captive sharks to track their instantaneous position and speed. In order to estimate the force output, we used the tail/body motion based on the swimming modes of the fish to calculate the water displaced by this motion during locomotion. Using Newton 3rd law, we have calculated the instantaneous force exerted …

Combating Burnout: Science Curriculum That Decreases Teacher Workload, Christopher Yauch
Combating Burnout: Science Curriculum That Decreases Teacher Workload, Christopher Yauch
School of Education and Leadership Student Capstone Projects
This project produced five days of lesson plans, a document to help assess lessons, and a reminder list which all promote the successful adoption of inquiry-based learning (IBL) into a classroom. The adoption of IBL ideally functions to allow teachers to decrease the overall “workload” or amount of prep time needed to teach traditionally content-heavy courses by way of empowering students to become the center of the learning process. Current research indicates there are noted barriers to widespread IBL adoption, such as lack of administrative support, lack of appropriate teacher training, and commonplace reliance on traditional learning styles. When implemented …

Exploring And Characterizing Organic Chemistry Students’ Meaningful Engagement In Science Practices, John Zhou
Exploring And Characterizing Organic Chemistry Students’ Meaningful Engagement In Science Practices, John Zhou
Dissertations and Doctoral Documents, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, 2023–
Undergraduate organic chemistry frequently engages students in key science practices such as analyzing and interpreting spectroscopic data and constructing explanations through reaction mechanisms. However, these activities are often framed as procedural tasks rather than as tools for constructing knowledge. As a result, students may develop incomplete understanding of these practices, making it harder for them to see how scientific knowledge is generated and to use them meaningfully as tools for sensemaking. To better understand how students take up these practices as epistemic tools, three qualitative studies were conducted in this dissertation to investigate how undergraduate organic chemistry students reason with …

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications
With limited land and water resources available it has become critical to maximize output for agricultural products while maintaining sustainable farming practices. Ricefish co-culture can be used to maximize limited land and water resources for production of rice and fish concurrently and reduce the need of chemical inputs. While rice-fish co-culture has been practiced in Asia for centuries, very few studies have examined the feasibility and economic impact of rice fish co-culture in the U.S.A. Two studies were conducted in Stuttgart, Arkansas, U.S.A. from 2023-2024 to investigate the suitability of raising Koi carp in flooded rice paddies with a sushi …

Measures Of Muscle Strength, Rate Of Force Development, And Fatiguability Across The Menstrual Cycle, Cassidy Wisler
All NMU Master's Theses
BACKGROUND: Hormone fluctuations and inconsistencies across the menstrual cycle paired with a shortage of literature on female physiology in exercise have made understanding on female exercise performance troublesome. Performance-based research has fallen behind and the increase in women participation and current evidence does not warrant general guidance on modulating specific exercise across the menstrual cycle. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of estrogen and progesterone on muscle strength, rate of force development, and fatiguability. METHODS: Nineteen recreationally active and eumenorrheic females (25.3 ± 5.8 yrs, 73.4 ± 12.2 kgs) volunteered to participate in the study. …
Investigating The Role Of Msbdnf – Trkb Signaling In The Maintenance Of Mitochondrial Populations Through The Bnip3 Mitophagy Pathway, Jack A. Horton
Investigating The Role Of Msbdnf – Trkb Signaling In The Maintenance Of Mitochondrial Populations Through The Bnip3 Mitophagy Pathway, Jack A. Horton
All NMU Master's Theses
Maintenance of mitochondrial transport and clearance at the pre- and post-synaptic terminal is an essential function of neuromuscular junctions to meet their high energy demands. Damaged or dysfunctional mitochondria can put stress on these synaptic junctions, ultimately leading to the degradation of the synapse and subsequent cell death. Dysfunctional mitochondria are also often present in neuromuscular diseases such as ALS. One possible mechanism by which neurons may eliminate dysfunctional mitochondria is through the muscle-synthesized BDNF (msBDNF) /TrkB-mediated Bcl-2 nineteen-kD interacting protein (BNIP3) mitophagy pathway, although the relationship is not well-defined. BNIP3 localizes to the mitochondria and triggers a loss of …
The Effect Of Skeletal Muscle-Synthesized Bdnf On Motor Neuron Soma Size And Bdnf Protein Abundance, Sydney Benson
The Effect Of Skeletal Muscle-Synthesized Bdnf On Motor Neuron Soma Size And Bdnf Protein Abundance, Sydney Benson
All NMU Master's Theses
Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a neurotrophin essential to neuron health and maintenance in both the central nervous system and periphery. It acts as a positive feedback system for the body’s motor neurons and the muscles they innervate, strengthening the synapse between them. Skeletal muscle-synthesized BDNF transmission occurs across the neuromuscular junction, the site where motor neuron axons synapse with muscle fibers. BDNF transmission to tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) at the motor neuron axon terminal causes clathrin mediated endocytosis of the complex and an intracellular signaling cascade that recruits dynein motor proteins for retrograde transport of the BDNF/TrkB …

Elucidating The Role Of Mir-10a/B In The Wound Healing Process In Larval Zebrafish, Jacquelyn E. Jacobs
All NMU Master's Theses
This study explores the regulatory role of microRNA-10 (miR-10) in larval zebrafish caudal fin regeneration, a model with broad implications for the future of regenerative medicine. Building on prior research from the lab, which indicated that miR-10 knockdown impairs regeneration, we verified this finding through rescue experiments, assessed its influence on healing projections, and examined its role in the innate immune response during the wound healing process. To address these questions, we employed a multi-faceted approach, including timed matings, microinjections, immunohistochemistry, fixed sample microscopy, and live imaging. Our results show that the experimental introduction of exogenous miR-10 can rescue the …
