Gauging The Outcomes of Organizational Diversity Implementations: The Intersection of Attitudes, Awareness and Behavior
(Drake University, 1998-05)This dissertation examines the attitudinal and behavioral outcomes from diversity education implementations in both a corporate and an academic institution. At each site, I explored whether attitudinal changes had occurred ... -
Gender Influences on Gait When Walking Normally Versus Carrying Weight
(2010-04-28)Anatomically, males and females have many differences. Females tend to have a wider pelvis than males. Traditionally, males have longer limbs as well as larger muscle mass. Based on these facts, we hypothesized that females ... -
Gender-Based Comparison of Walking Speed and Simultaneous Mental Math Performance
(2010-05-10)Walking is so automatic to us that we often multitask while walking (for instance, by talking to others, carrying things, or eating/drinking). However, it might be expected that multitasking would cause gait to change as ... -
Gene Therapy for Osteosarcoma : "In Vitro" Characterization of Five Tumor Cell Lines and Development of Treatment Models "In Vivo"
(Drake University, 1995-02)Four human osteosarcoma cell lines (MNNG, TE85, MG63, and G292) and a human-derived osteosarcoma metastatic to murine lung (MLM) were transduced "in vitro" using retroviral vectors containing the Herpes simplex thymidine ... -
The Generality of the Autoshaped Response
(Drake University, 1978-05)The problem. To determine if autoshaping is restricted to responses which are biologically preorganized, or if a response which is not overlearned or pre-organized, but is elicited by an appetitive stimulus (grain), can ... -
Generating Interest In Computer Science Through Middle-School Android Summer Camps
(CCSC, 2013-05)We conducted a week-long summer camp to promote interest in computer science among middle-school students. The camp primarily used self-paced video tutorials to teach programming concepts using the App Inventor for Android ... -

(2006-06-07)Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is a recessive human disorder characterized by hypersensitivity to radiation, elevated risk of cancer development, nervous degeneration, premature senescence, and immune deficiencies. A-T is ... -
Genotoxicity of Genistein : A Molecular Analysis
(2010-04-21)Genistein is a naturally occurring phytoestrogen found in soy products. High intakes of soy products are associated with lower incidences of cancer, especially breast cancer. Genistein may act as a chemopreventative agent ... -
Glucose to Fuel: Investigating Renewable Resources for Glucose Production
(2009-06-24)Cellulose is a key component in plant cell walls, and is the most abundant biopolymer in the world. Enzymes can be used to break cellulose down into glucose, which can then be fermented to ethanol fuel. Avicel (a purified ... -
