Group 11 'Ate Bases: Towards an Understanding of Solid- and Solution-State Structures
Lithium bis(amido)cuprates are an important class of bimetallic base, which can chemo- and regioselectively metalate aromatic compounds, via directed ortho cupration (DoCu). This thesis begins with an introduction to aspects of the chemistry of organolithium compounds, group 11 organometallic …

The Dog Ate My Homework: A Qualitative Study of Students' Views of Their Homework Experiences
… be meaningful. The findings of this study indicate that, for different reasons and at different times, the students in this study view homework as: assignment that affect arbitrarily affects their class grades; a way to prepare for tests; assignments not worth doing; something they do not need …

The pedagogical characteristics of advanced technology education-funded professional development for community college faculty
… in preparation for high technology jobs. Unfortunately, community colleges are generally underfunded and poorly positioned to offer professional development for discipline-specific skills or pedagogy training. The National Science Foundation and Advanced Technological Education (ATE) have situated …

PHARMACOKINETICS AND ORAL DELIVERY OF POLYMETHOXYLATED FLAVONES
Polymethylated flavones are constituents of many herbs and edible plants in nature. Their broad spectrum of pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, blood thinning and neuro-protective effects have been reported extensively. To …

Limiting bias from test-control interference in online marketplace experiments
… is to measure the average treatment effect (ATE), i.e. the difference between the average outcome in the counterfactual situation where 100% of users are exposed to the treatment and the average outcome in the status quo situation (in which 100% of users are exposed to the control). However, …

Essays on average treatment effects
… essays on estimating average treatment effects (ATE) under counterfactual framework. In Chapter 1, I compare the performances of single-step and two-step estimators for estimating the ATE in a linear model when treatment assignment depends on unobservables. Recent advances in computing technology …

Nutrient intakes of primary school children
… all primary and special school pupils (approximately 20,500 children from 71 primary schools and 6 special schools) in an attempt to reduce health and education inequalities. The meals were prepared to meet the Caroline Walker Trust (CWT) nutritional guidelines for primary schools. This study …

Design and Analysis of a Transformer-Based Solid-State Relay
Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) systems require relays to perform complex high-speed tests on semiconductor devices. However, existing relays all come up short in some aspect. Electromechanical reed relays have a limited lifetime and slow switching speeds, while solid-state photoMOS relays have high …

Differences in daily dietary intake between students who eat at least one meal in restaurants and students who don't eat in restaurants
Studies indicate that eating away from home is associated with childhood obesity. This study examined the difference between away from home meals and home meals. Students aged 11-14 years old were recruited from four middle schools in the Houston area and completed four 24-hour recalls in 2008. …

Scalar implicatures in children: alternatives and relevance
Utterances like "Megan ate some of the cupcakes" are typically interpreted as "Megan ate some but not all of the cupcakes". Such an interpretation is thought to arise from a pragmatic inference called Scalar Implicature (SI). Preschoolers typically fail to spontaneously generate SIs without the …

An automated bench testing system for direct current parameters of instrumentation amplifiers
… stages in the production of analog integrated circuits (ICs). An efficient system for low-volume IC testing is one that automates bench tests and provides good measurement precision and accuracy, while costing far less than the standard automated test equipment (ATE) used for high-volume …

Effects of emotional state and food novelty on preschool children's acceptance of food
… suggesting that familiar foods are not categorically aversive. According to a biphasic model of emotion, negative affective behaviors (e.g., withdrawal) are enhanced during negative emotional states and inhibited during positive states. Positive affective behaviors (e.g., approach, …

Performance enhancement strategies for design and test Optimization of analog and mixed-signal circuits
… trends reflect the industry's drive to innovate and optimize, ensuring high performance in increasingly compact and integrated systems. Multi-site testing, which involves the parallel testing of multiple chips by multiple test sites on an Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), has emerged as a key …

"Y'all Done Up and Done It": The Semantics of a Perfect Construction in an Upstate South Carolina Dialect
… Carolina. I argue that utterances such as I done ate describe an eating event that is perceived by the speaker as being connected to the reference time. If the eventuality under the scope of done is a state, then done allows for a continuative reading, in which the eventuality is still on-going at …
