The Differential Framing Measure for Procrastination : An Implicit Measure of Procrastination Cognitions
(East Carolina University, 2013)The present study attempted to create a scale for measuring the implicit cognitions related to procrastination. Items for the measure were created from a set of cognitive rationalizations derived from existing procrastination ... -
Differential gene expression and alternative splicing in insect immune specificity
(2014-11)Background Ecological studies routinely show genotype-genotype interactions between insects and their parasites. The mechanisms behind these interactions are not clearly understood. Using the bumblebee Bombus terrestris ... -
DIFFERENTIATION OF J-SERIES PROSTAGLANDINS AS PRO-APOPTOTIC PRODUCTS OF CANCER CELL METABOLISM
(East Carolina University, 2016-12-16)Cyclopentenone J-series prostaglandins and prostaglandin-ethanolamide conjugates have been shown to selectively induce endoplasmic reticulum stress-apoptosis in different cancer cell types. These lipids have been identified ... -
Digits Lost or Gained? Evidence for Pedal Evolution in the Dwarf Salamander Complex ( Plethodontidae)
(2012)Change in digit number, particularly digit loss, has occurred repeatedly over the evolutionary history of tetrapods. Although digit loss has been documented among distantly related species of salamanders, it is relatively ... -
Diophantine Generation, Galois Theory, and Hilbert's Tenth Problem
(East Carolina University, 2012)Hilbert's Tenth Problem was a question concerning existence of an algorithm to determine if there were integer solutions to arbitrary polynomial equations over the integers. Building on the work by Martin Davis, Hilary ... -
Direct Behavior Ratings (DBR) : A possible tool for monitoring the behavior and interventions of students with symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
(East Carolina University, 2011)Considering the time constrains of school teachers it is imperative to identify more time efficient procedures to monitor behavior and interventions for students exhibiting symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity ... -
DIRECT ELECTROCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF THE REDOX ACTIVITY OF TRYPTOPHAN AND TYROSINE IN MODIFIED AZURINS: THE IMPACT OF THE PROTEIN ENVIRONMENT
(East Carolina University, 2021-05-03)Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) is a biological process essential to life. It is imperative for respiration in animals as well as photosynthesis in plants. Long-range PCET is often facilitated by redox-active amino ... -
Discovered Repeatedly: Archaeological Documentation and Site Restoration of Pacific Reef Wreck (BISC-29, 8Da11953)
(East Carolina University, 2018-11-30)Sitting at the northern end of the Florida Reef, Biscayne National Park is home to over 100 submerged archaeological sites. Part of the park's ongoing efforts to study, interpret, and stabilize submerged resources threatened ... -
DISCREPANCIES AMONG PARENT AND TEACHER BEHAVIORAL RATINGS: A CLOSER LOOK AT RACE
(East Carolina University, 2022-02-10)There is no definitive test for Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD); thus, clinicians rely heavily on behavior rating scales from individuals across settings. Discrepancies between parent and teacher ratings ... -
DISINTEGRIN-LIKE DOMAIN IN KSHV ENCODED gB IS A NECESSITY TO PROMOTE VIRUS LATENCY
(East Carolina University, 2011)KSHV glycoprotein B (gB) is a lytic structural protein expressed on the envelope of mature virions and on the membrane of cells supporting lytic infection. Previous studies have identified that in addition to the role of ... -
Dismantling the Center from the Margins : Patriarchy and Transnational Literature by Women
(East Carolina University, 2011)This thesis explores the idea that transnational women writers are liminal figures: marginal as women, marginal as writers, and marginal as transnational personae "betwixt and between" nations. Authorial liminality provides ... -
