FROM WORKAHOLISM TO BURNOUT: AN INCLUSION OF PSYCHOLOGICAL CAPITAL
(East Carolina University, 2016-04-25)In the current study we sought to examine the relationships among workaholism, psychological capital (PsyCap), and burnout. According to previous research, the incidence of workaholism is increasing in the United States. ... -
Functional analysis and treatment of problem behavior exhibited by elementary school children.
(East Carolina University, 1999)A functional analysis involving antecedent events was conducted with 4 students who had been identified as having behavior problems. Off-task behavior was measured while task difficulty and level of adult attention were ... -
A Functional Analysis of microRNAs in Nicotiana tabacum
(East Carolina University, 2012)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a newly discovered class of endogenous post-transcriptional gene regulators that are typically 20-22 nucleotides in length that do not code for proteins. MiRNAs regulate gene expression by either ... -
Functional and Structural Sediment Connectivity within a Recently Burned Basin
(East Carolina University, 2011)Human populations have continued their unrelenting expansion into the wildland-urban interface and in locales which are prone to wildfire, the risk of secondary hazards associated with wildfires such as debris flows and ... -
