The Effect of Home-School Communication on Treatment Integrity
(East Carolina University, 2014)Federal policy and school psychology practice have recently increased advocacy for the use of evidence-based interventions. Treatment integrity is an important component of evidenced-based interventions and individuals ... -
Effect of in vitro transcription on cruciform stability.
(East Carolina University, 1990-05-11)We have investigated the effect of in vitro transcription on cruciform stability. Replicative form DNA of 4X174 strain ins6240, containing a 48 bp synthetic palindrome in the J-F intercistronic region, was supercoiled in ... -
Effect of Increased Damping in Subordinate Oscillator Arrays
(2018)Previous literature has shown that large structures with a significant number of smaller attached structures exhibit much higher apparent damping than was predicted by models. Further research into this effect led to the ... -
The Effect of Injury Prevention Training Programs on Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries in Team Sport Athletes
(East Carolina University, 2013)Objective: We sought to conduct a meta-analysis to determine whether neuromuscular training programs are effective at reducing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. A secondary purpose was to identify and describe ... -

Effect of MicroRNA-34c on Regenerative Axon Growth in Dorsal Root Ganglion Neurons of the Peripheral Nervous System
(East Carolina University, 2011)The peripheral nervous system is unique in its ability to regenerate axons after injury. Our lab previously assessed the miRNA expression levels of the regenerating sciatic nerve which indicated miR-34c up-regulation. ... -
Effect of Normal and Fast Articulatory Rates on Stuttering Frequency
(East Carolina University, 1995)The effect of speech rate on stuttering frequency was investigated with 20 stutterers. Subjects read two different 300 syllable passages at a normal and fast speech rate. Stuttering counts and articulatory rate was determined ... -
