Measurement of Oxygen Concentrations in the Intact Beating Heart Using Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy: A Technique for Measuring Oxygen Concentrations in Situ
(Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 1991-12)Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy can be applied to measure oxygen concentrations in cells and tissues. Oxygen is paramagnetic, and thus it interacts with a free radical label resulting in a broadening of ... -
Determination of the Mechanism of Free Radical in Human Aortic Endothelial Cells Exposed to Anoxia and Reoxygenation
(The Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1994-09-30)Endothelial cell-derived oxygen free radicals are important mediators of postischemic injury; however, the mechanisms that trigger this radical generation are not known, and it is not known if this process can occur in ... -
Distinguishing Lies from Jokes: Theory of Mind Deficits and Discourse Interpretation in Right Hemisphere Brain-Damaged Patients
(Brain and Language,, 1998-03)Right-hemisphere brain damaged (RHD) patients and a normal control group were tested for their ability to infer first- and second-order mental states and to understand the communicative intentions underlying ironic jokes ... -
The FixK2 protein is involved in regulation of symbiotic hydrogenase expression in Bradyrhizobium japonicum
(Journal Of Bacteriology, 1998-06)The roles of the nitrogen fixation regulatory proteins NifA, FixK1, and FixK2 in the symbiotic regulation of hydrogenase structural gene expression in Bradyrhizobium japonicum have been investigated. Bacteroids from FixJ ... -
Religious Beliefs and Therapeutic Orientations of Clinical and Counseling Psychologists
(Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion, 1998-06-01)A 65-item questionnaire was used to examine the relations among religious beliefs and psychotherapeutic orientations in a national sample of 237 clinical and counseling psychologists. Sixty-six percent of these psychologists ... -
Religious Beliefs and Political Ideologies as Predictors of Psychotherapeutic Orientations of Clinical and Counseling Psychologists

Effects of Behavioral Interventions on Disruptive Behavior and Affect in Demented Nursing Home Residents
(Nursing Research, 2002-07)BACKGROUND: Disruptive behaviors are prevalent in nursing home residents with dementia and often have negative consequences for the resident, caregiver, and others in the environment. Behavioral interventions might ameliorate ... -
Stanislavski’s Acting Method and Control Theory: Commonalities across Time, Place, and Field
(Social Behavior & Personality: An International Journal, 2004-01-06)Constantin Stanislavski revolutionized 20th century theater by developing a highly articulated and practical system of acting, now referred to simply as 'the method.' Stanislavski's method presents a model of human behavior ... -
Instructors' Self-Perceived Pedagogical Principle Implementation in the Online Environment.
(Quarterly Review of Distance Education., 2006)This study explored online instructors' perceptions of their implementation of Chickering and Gamson's Seven Principles and the factors that influenced instructors' implementations. Results reveal that endorsement of the ... -
Toward Building a Database of Bifunctional Probes for the MS3D Investigation of Nucleic Acids Structures
(Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2006-11)This report illustrates the approaches employed to investigate critical aspects of the activity of crosslinking reagents toward nucleic acid substrates, which should be evaluated to identify candidate probes for mass ... -
