Some Effects of 6-Azauridine on Two Mutant Genes in the Mouse.
… stimuli has been investigated in Drosophila (Goldschmidt and Piternick, ’57), fowl (Landauer, ’48, ’60, ’65), and mammals (Dagg, ’66). Different strains of the same species often show varied developmental responses to the same stimulus, presumably due to polygenic differences between …

Shifts in livestock technology, programming, and composition: exploring the future of livestock agriculture
… MPP/DMC participation. The third essay tests the Goldschmidt hypothesis which states that increasing farm scale negatively impacts community well-being (Goldschmidt 1947). We estimated the relationship between livestock consolidation and county economic indicators (unemployment rate, GDP, ag GDP, …

The Interaction of a Mutant Gene, Paddlefoot (Pf), and a Teratogen, 6-Azauridine, on Limb Development in Two Inbred Strains of Mice.
… Drosophila and mammals (Landauer, '48, '60, '65; Goldschmidt and Piternick, '57; Barber, '59; Beck, '63, '64; Dagg, '66, '67, '72; Forsthoefel, '72, '75; Johnson, '70; Hamburgh et al., '70; Winfield and Bennett, '71; Musgrove, '73). Based on these investigations, several generalizations have been …

Wealth and deprivation in the Delta: a landscape of subsidization
… among these three variables. Drawing from the Goldschmidt Hypothesis, this research proposes that areas of large-scale agristructure will also be areas of high subsidy income and of poor community well-being as measured by social and economic indicators. Local Indicators of Spatial …

The Relationship Between Student Performance on a Paper and Pencil Test of Conservation Concepts and Performance on a Piagetian Interview Instrument
… Concept Assessment Kit - Conservation, CAC (Goldschmidt & Bentler, 1968). The two tests were administered to 59 second and third grade students at the Greenwood Laboratory School of Southwest Missouri State University. Test scores were compared by means of the Pearson r correlation with the …

What can School Administrators do to Improve the Math Performance of Black Males?
… in advanced mathematics courses (Wang and Goldschmidt, 2003). Failure to learn and understand the content in Algebra 1 results in limitations on further mathematical opportunities in the short-term, which, in turn, reduces prospects for continued education beyond secondary school. The …

The community loses when it loses farmers: impacts of a changing local farmland market
… Midwestern rural-community sustainability. The Goldschmidt Hypothesis, which argues that large-scale farms undermine a community’s social-economic well-being, and social capital theory, which holds that broad engagement builds a strong community social fabric, are employed in analyzing the …

Self-Assembled Barium Titanate Nanoscale Films by Molecular Beam Epitaxy
… has been the focus of the growth community. The Goldschmidt tolerance factor predicts an unstable perovskite when barium sits in the titanium lattice site. The BaO-TiO2 phase diagram predicts a low-solubility (<100 ppm) of excess barium oxide at molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth temperatures of …

A laboratory-based study of mood and eating behavior in overweight children
Loss of control over eating refers to the sense that one cannot control what or how much one is eating. Loss of control eating is prevalent among overweight children and is associated with psychosocial impairment. Self-report data suggest that pediatric loss of control eating may be related to the …

Aramaic Incantation Bowls and Contemporary Ceramic Art Practice
This research investigates connections between the Aramaic incantation bowls, contemporary ceramic art practice, and critical theory. Scholarly attention surrounding the Aramaic Bowls remains largely confined within the philological disciplines of translation, linguistics and grammar. In contrast, …

Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Provisional Fixed Partial Denture PMMA Material Containing Alumina Nanofibers
… A quaternary ammonium acetate dispersant (CC-59, Goldschmidt, Janesville, WI) was added to the acrylic monomer at 0.0 wt %, 1.0 wt %, 2.0 wt % and 5.0 wt % of the nanofiber weight (12 test groups, 1 control). Samples from each group were evaluated for flexural strength, flexural modulus, fracture …

Democracy, pornography, and state power: The case of legislating obscenity in post-communist Russia
This dissertation examines pornography's arrival in Russia (and the government's attempt to deal with it) as an issue of democratization. Russia, now faced with the challenge of becoming a democracy and shaking off an authoritarian past, must face questions of administrative response in many varied …
