Favourable Attitudes Towards School And Students' Perceptions Of Curriculum Choice, M Sheret, L Fink, John Ainley Dec 1989

Favourable Attitudes Towards School And Students' Perceptions Of Curriculum Choice, M Sheret, L Fink, John Ainley

Dr John Ainley

The paper examines Year 11 students' attitudes to their school experience, and how these attitudes are influenced by the background characteristics of the students and by the students' own perceptions of the degree of curriculum choice within the school. The paper then looks at some school and student characteristics to see if these can explain why some students are more satisfied than others with the subjects available for their curriculum choice.


Regional Differences In Connexin32 And Connexin43 Messenger Rnas In Rat Brain, C. Naus, Daniel Belliveau, J. Bechberger Dec 1989

Regional Differences In Connexin32 And Connexin43 Messenger Rnas In Rat Brain, C. Naus, Daniel Belliveau, J. Bechberger

Daniel J. Belliveau

The regional distribution of gap junction mRNAs was examined in the adult rat brain. The level of connexin43 mRNA is more abundant than connexin32, being homogeneously distributed throughout different regions of brain. In contrast, there is dramatic heterogeneity in the level of connexin32 mRNA, with the highest level in the hindbrain. These results suggest that the gap junction genes are differentially expressed in regions of the adult rat brain.
