Exploring Consumer’s Reaction in the Bad Gift Situation Across Cultures
(2017-02-15)This study investigated the impacts of bad gift giving across cultures, especially how individualistic (Western, American) vs Collectivistic (Eastern, Asian) consumers react when they receive bad gifts and how it would ... -
Exploring Cooperative Domain Dynamics in Thermus thermophilus Leucyl-tRNA Synthetase Using Low-Frequency Normal Mode Calculations and Statistical Coupling Analysis.
(2009-02-11)Leucyl-tRNA synthetases are class I synthetases that catalyze the covalent attachment of leucine to the tRNAL. The three-dimensional crystal structure of Thermus thermophilus leucyl-tRNA synthetase (TtLeuRS) demonstrates ... -
Exploring Electron Transfer-Induced Conformational Changes in NRH:quinone Oxidoreductase.
(2009-04)NRH:quinone oxidoreductase is a flavoenzyme that catalyzes the one-step reduction of quinones to hydroquinones using its cofactor, FAD. The enzyme kinetics goes through a "ping-pong" mechanism, in which changes in the ... -
Exploring Epidemiology on Campus.
(2009-04)Epidemiology is "the study of the distribution and determinants of disease in human populations." The study of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and their modes of transmission is an important segment of epidemiology. ... -
Exploring Familial Resemblance in Romantic Attachment : Shared Genes and Shared Rearing Environment Do Not Equal Shared Attachment
(2018-04)We conducted a series of studies to explore the possibility that romantic attachment style is transmitted via the family, either through shared genes or shared rearing environment. Family members should be similar ... -
Exploring Honors Students' Levels of Academic Motivation, Perfectionism, and Test Anxiety
(2014-04)The purpose of this study was to examine relationships among achievement goal orientations, perfectionism, and test anxiety, as well as group differences in honors versus non-honors students among these constructs. -
Exploring Human Services Resources for the Hmong Community in Eau Claire County
(2014-04)The purpose of this study was to investigate the services and involvement of the Eau Claire Area Hmong Mutual Assistance Association in Eau Claire. -
Exploring Indigenous and Western Medicines from an Integrative Medical Perspective
(2012-04)Indigenous medicines and healing practices have existed for countless generations of known history, yet only in the past few decades has mainstream medicine's philosophy and practice begun to even consider their validity. ... -
Exploring Motivational Interviewing : As a Resource in Parent-Clinician Collaboration on a Conversation Intervention
(2022-04)The aim of this study is to explore the potential of motivational interviewing (MI) techniques as a way of fostering collaboration between parents and clinicians of diverse backgrounds. MI is a counseling style that ... -
Exploring Nurse Educator Attitudes Regarding Integrative Therapies
(2015-04)The purpose of this study is to identify common thematic perspectives of Nurse Educators on their knowledge, barriers and intent to use Integrative Therapies in hospital settings. -
Exploring Online Course Evaluation Response Rates
(2010-04)Student evaluation is an important tool in higher level learning environments. A shift in higher education from physical classrooms and course evaluations towards more web-based learning environments and evaluation methods ... -
Exploring Policies to Promote High-Performance Computing in Post-Pandemic Undergraduate Education in Wisconsin
(2022-04)The COVID-19 pandemic has challenged higher education institutions across the world to maintain the quality of education and fulfill their mission. Notably, classes and research projects that involved high-performance ... -
Exploring Temporal and Regulatory Behaviors of Foraging Groups of Juvenile Coho Salmon.
(2009-07-27)Juvenile coho salmon choose to enter foraging groups because of the benefits of group membership, which should vary as peaked function of group size. Individual benefits are highest at the optimal group size, and decrease ... -
Exploring the Chromacity Diagram : Recreation Using Blackbodies and Atomic Spectral Lines
(2018-04)The purpose of this study was to explore light sources, the chromacity diagram, and blackbody radiation. -
Exploring the Dynamics of Hmong Parental Involvment in Education
(2010-04)Empirical evidence suggests that early parental involvement in a child's education results in greater academic success. Many studies have been done on White, African American, and Hispanic families; however, few have ... -
Exploring the Interactions Between Nitrogen Donors and MX3R Lewis Acids
(2021-04)This work is focused on designing medium-sensitive structures, of the form R-MX3-N, with the potential for the M-N bond to contract when in different solvents, as in previous studies of nitrile-BF3 complexes. If R-MX3-N ... -
