The Triptych Tetrad: Marshall McLuhan's Neo-Medieval Communication Theory
… the classical and medieval trivium and McLuhan's tetrad, which was the heuristic tool that advanced as New Science for the twentieth and twenty first centuries. By detailing this connection, the tetrad is a tool that advances a neo-Medieval theory of communication. In its essence, the neo-Medieval …

Metagenomic characterization of Candidatatus Defluviicoccus tetraformis TFO71, a tetrad-forming organism, predominant in an anaerobic-aerobic membrane bioreactor with deteriorated biological phosphorus removal
… removal (EBPR), Defluviicoccus-related tetrad-forming organisms (DTFO) were observed to predominate in the microbial community. Using metagenomics, a partial genome of the predominant DTFO, “Candidatus Defluviicoccus tetraformis TFO71,” was successfully constructed and characterized. …

Cyberbullying Among Icelandic University Students: Prevalence, Manifestations, and Perpetrators' Personality Traits
Dökka fjórmenningarlíkanið (e. Dark Tetrad) á persónuleikaeinkennum (þ.e. Machiavellianismi, sjálfsdýrkun (e. narcissism), siðblinda og sadismi) hefur ítrekað verið tengt við andfélagslega hegðun í stafrænu umhverfi, m.a. neteinelti. Tilgangur þessarar rannsóknar var að kanna algengi og …

Discriminative stimulus properties of 3-substituent rimonabant analogs
… and catalepsy. Drugs that produce this tetrad of effects within a limited dose range are likely to function as CB1 receptor agonists. A structure activity relationship study from our laboratory investigating analogs of the CB1 antagonist rimonabant revealed that certain alterations in …

Spherically-symmetric inhomogeneities in general relativity and their effects in cosmology
… we first focus on a comparison between the tetrad-based method and the widely used Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) model for spherically-symmetric systems. We demonstrate that the tetrad-based method does not suffer from the gauge freedoms inherent to the LTB model, naturally accommodates …

The Legendre Transform of the Holst Action
… a short introduction on 3+1 ADM form and the tetrad form of General Relativity, then I review the Legendre transform of the Einstein-Hilbert action and the Palatini action. The Holst action is a generalization of the Palatini action by including a topological term. I derive Ashtekar's …

The Effects of Early-Life Lead Exposure on Adult Delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol Sensitivity, Self-administration, and Tolerance
… (as measured by the cannabinoid-induced tetrad). The second aim seeks to answer whether Pb exposure affects edible THC self-administration and the development of THC tolerance (also measured by the tetrad). It was hypothesized that Pb exposure would decrease THC sensitivity (Aim 1), would …

The genetics of glucosamine in yeast : cytoplasmic determinants conferring resistance
… influencing mitochondrial marker output. 2. upon tetrad analysis a variety of tetrad ratios was observed for glucosamine resistance whereas mitochondrial markers segregated 4:0 or 0:4 (resistant:sensitive). 3. glucosamine resistance and mitochondrial markers segregated differentially with time. 4. …

Digitalisierung der Unternehmensberatung – Analyse von Beratungsschulen und Digitalisierungspotenzialen
… on the empirical and practical results, the “tetrad model of management consultancy” was developed. Consequently, an interdependency model for the interacting consultancy constellations with mutual influencing factors was developed. This dissertation examines the four areas of the tetrad - …

Dynamical studies in relativistic cosmology
… preferred fluid four-velocity. We show using a tetrad analysis of the evolution equations for the dynamical variables and all the constraints these satisfy in classical General Relativity, that there are no new consistent perfect fluid cosmologies with the kinematic variables and the electric …

Microspore Wall Morphogenesis and Orbicule Ultrastructure of <i>Isoetes</i>
… Paraexospore formation began during the tetrad stage. The exospore was then formed between the paraexospore and the plasma membrane. During the free spore stage, two walls were formed, the perispore and the endospore. The perispore develops on the surface of the paraexospore while the …

Fostering personal resilience in the Royal Air Force: a study of Force Development and Adventurous Personal Development Training
… resilient. In addressing this force resilience tetrad, contextualised Force Development and Adventurous Personal Development Training (FD/APDT) interventions contribute towards RAF participant’s resilience development. This thesis provides participant responses of RAF FD/APDT participant’s …

G-wires: The growth and characterization of a G4-DNA nanostructure
… is a cyclic Hoogsteen hydrogen bonded guanine tetrad known as the G-quartet. Sequences capable of forming G-quartets are classified as G-DNA. The family of G-DNA structures includes anti-parallel hairpin dimer conformations (G'2-DNA) and parallel tetramer conformations (G4-DNA). In this work we …

The investigation of regional ecology using 2km x 2km scale botanical distribution data
Tetrad vascular plant data from Staffordshire (VC 39), accumulated 1995 - 2009, were analysed using Two Way Indicator Species Analysis and Principal Components Analysis, explored using GIS, to examine major floristic distribution patterns. Environmental data were also examined using Redundancy …

Examining the Influence of Seductive Details in Case-Based Instruction on Pre-Service Teachers' Learning and Learning Perceptions
… by learning measure interaction was found, with tetrad comparisons indicating that the NSD group differentially performed on the learning tests compared to the other two groups. Additional follow-up analyses indicated that the NSD group outperformed the SD group on learning transfer, suggesting …

Analyses of a genic male-sterile mutant in soybean
… by callase ([beta]-1,3-glucanase) at the late tetrad stage. Molecular markers linked with the male-sterile gene were identified by using an F2 population of 111 individuals. Analysis revealed that the male-sterile locus, designated 'ms' was located on linkage group D1b of the USDA/ARS/ISU …

Genetic Variation and Sex Mediate Differential Responses to ∆-9-tetrahydrocannabinol among Inbred Mice
… in THC response we use the cannabinoid-induced tetrad test which quantifies the strength of agonist mediated cannabinoid receptor signaling by measuring the level of motor activity, nociception, and hypothermia elicited by receptor activation. We then extend our study of THC response variation …

Molecular marker analysis of a segregating monoploid potato family
… genes with respect to the centromeres by half tetrad analysis. SSR-containing sequences from the public databases, as well as sequences obtained from a genomic library enriched for SSRs, were used to generate 48 primer pairs. Only 12 of them were found to be polymorphic in the monoploid family. …

A general state-based temporal pattern recognition
… time-series. A time-series is formalized as a tetrad (T, R, Tdur, Tgap), which denotes: the temporal order of time- elements; the temporal relationship between time-elements; the temporal duration of each time-element and the temporal gap between each adjacent pair of time-elements …
