Giving up the keys: How driving cessation affects engagement in later life
Purpose of the study. Many older adults consider driving vital to maintaining their preferred lifestyle and engagement with society, yet it is normative for individuals to eventually stop driving. This study examined the ... -
The Graduate Student Advisor (GSA): An Expert System for SAN Graduate Student Advising
(1992-12-01)The Graduate Student Advisor (GSA) is an experimental expert system that advises graduate students in systems analysis. It simulates a faculty advisor in suggesting the schedule of courses a student should take based on ... -
Graphical Programming of Simulation Models in an Object-Oriented Environment
(1988-07-01)Graphical programming has been used in conjunction with conventional simulation languages via block diagrams or activity networks. Its beneficial effects on programming and modeling in simulation have been accepted by ... -
Graphical User Interface Environment for Developing Workcell Control Programs
(1995-07-01)A forms-based development environment for writing manufacturing workcell programs is described. The environment is a Microsoft Windows application that allows a programmer to describe a sequence of operations and associated ... -
Heteroglossia and Philosophers of Education
Essay commentary on Rene Arcilla's question regarding the predicament of the contemporary philosopher of education. I use the example of Cornel West to illustrate how his philosophical work exemplifies the concept of ... -
Heterothermy in Northern Cardinals

How educational intermediaries connect research and practice
Knowledge brokers seek to transform education practice by sharing research, but are they effective at achieving this goal? -
How far to the road not taken? The effect of psychological distance on counterfactual direction.
Upward and downward counterfactuals serve the distinct motivational functions of selfimprovement and self-enhancement, respectively. Drawing on construal level theory, which contends that increasing psychological distance ... -
How to Use PyMOL
Tutorial video for using PyMOL to accompany “Using PyMOL to Explore the Effects of pH on Non-Covalent Interactions between Immunoglobulin G and Protein A: A Guided-Inquiry Biochemistry Activity”. Authors: Zahilyn D. ... -
HPWS data
The research focus was to examine the relationship between high-performance work system (HPWS), firm financial performance (FFP), firm innovation and improvement (FII), and firm capacity for learning and transforming ... -

(1992-08-01)Information Retrieval (IR), which is also known as text or document retrieval, is the process of locating and retrieving docri)nents that are relevant to the user queries. In hypertext environments, docuinent databases are ... -
Ice nucleating active bacteria reduce the cold-hardiness of the freeze-intolerant Colorado potato beetle (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).
In laboratory experiments, a freeze-dried concentrated form of the icenucleating active bacteria, Pseudomonas syringae, was used to decrease the supercooling capacity of field-collected diapausing Colorado potato beetles, ... -
Ice nuclei in soil compromise cold hardiness of hatchling painted turtles, Chrysemys picta.
Hatchling painted turtles (Chrysemys picta) commonly overwinter within their natal nests and survive exposure to temperatures as low as -12 degrees C by supercooling. We report that the supercooling capacity of hatchling ... -
Ice-nucleating active bacteria decrease the cold-hardiness of stored grain insects.
This report provides further evidence that a freeze-dried, concentrated form of Pseudomonas syringae, an ice-nucleating active bacteria, reduces the cold tolerance of stored grain insect pests. Application of ice-nucleating ... -
Identification and expression of a putative facilitative urea transporter in three species of true frogs (Ranidae): implications for terrestrial adaptation.
Urea transporters (UTs) help mediate the transmembrane movement of urea and therefore are likely important in amphibian osmoregulation. Although UTs contribute to urea reabsorption in anuran excretory organs, little is ... -
Identification of ice nucleating active Pseudomonas fluorescens strains for biological control of overwintering Colorado potato beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).
Laboratory studies were conducted to identify ice-nucleating active bacterial strains able to elevate the supercooling point, the temperature at which freezing is initiated in body fluids, of Colorado potato beetles, ... -
Identifying subgroups of age and cohort effects in obesity prevalence
The obesity epidemic represents an important public health issue in the United States. Studying obesity trends across age groups over time helps to identify crucial relationships between the disease and medical treatment ... -
Imagining democratic futures for public universities: Educational leadership against fatalism’s temptations
At current rates, almost all U.S. public universities could reach a point of zero state subsidy within the next fifty years. What is a public university without public funding? In this essay, Kathleen Knight Abowitz ...
