Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide on nanostructured catalysts
(2018)There is great interest in the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) to useful chemicals and fuels toward addressing the increasingly serious impacts of global climate change. The electrochemical reduction of CO2 has garnered ... -
Electroconvulsive shock-induced amnesia: an investigation of the reinstatement effect
(1973)Three experiments were conducted to investigate the reinstatement effect, in which amnesia has been reported following the pairing of a noncontingent footshock and ECS. In experiment I the possibility that a FS-ECS combination ... -
Electroencephalographic response to a body image exposure
(2013-02-01)Body and appearance dissatisfaction have been common topics of study in psychological research. Another area of research that may have implications for these topics is that of frontal asymmetry; the greater relative activity ... -
Electrokinetic barrier and remediation with solar energy
(2012-11-10)Electrokinetics is a promising technique to prevent / minimize the migration of pollutants to the soil and/or groundwater and to remediate contaminated slurries. Electrokinetics requires a low-level direct current (dc) ... -
Electrokinetic-assisted membrane photobioreactor (EK-MPBR) for municipal wastewater treatment
(2023)Membrane technology and phycoremediation, which utilizes algae for nutrient removal, are two major emerging technologies for wastewater treatment. Membrane photobioreactors (MPBRs) integrate these technologies and provide ... -
Electron-photon interactions in quantum dots : coupled oscillators
(1995)A coupled oscillator model is developed for the far infra-red response of a quantum dot, and this model is used to predict the vacuum-held Rabi splittings of a dot-cavity system. -
Embodied energy assessment of building structural systems using building information modeling
(2017)As the population of the world increases, the need to develop sustainable housing has gained worldwide attention. Although buildings contribute to socio-economic development, they are also among the biggest consumers of ... -
Embodied Transformation: Tapping into the Nature of Emergent Learning
(2016)This dissertation describes a basic qualitative inquiry research study, regarding participant experiences of an emergent approach to teaching in higher education. Patterns in transformative meaning-making were a particular ... -
Emerging adults’ perceptions of their family systems: resilience and connections after the COVID-19 pandemic
(2023)Family systems can be conceptualized as complex adaptive systems consisting of intricate interconnections among family members that adapt dynamically to the environment. The COVID-19 pandemic was a chronic and persistent ... -
EMG biofeedback application with behaviourally disturbed mentally retarded individuals
(1986)Biofeedback is the use of instrumentation to provide feedback to a client about his/her psychophysiological processes. One type of biofeedback is Electromyographic (EMG) which measures muscular contraction and relaxation. ... -
Emotion recognition and empathy after brain injury
(2001)Study participants: 20 brain-injured individuals from Brain Injury Services of Northern Ontario (Control group: Lakehead University psychology undergrads.) Tests administered: Victoria Emotion Recognition Test (VERT), ... -
Emotion regulation mediates the association between HRV reactivity and relationship success
(2017)Two hundred single post-secondary students participated in a longitudinal study including online, laboratory, and speed dating components. This methodology was used to examine the link between romantic relationship ... -
Emotion regulation strategies, cognitive personality styles, and context as predictors of psychological outcomes
(2014-01-22)Emotion regulation (ER) plays a central role in the development and maintenance of a number of clinical disorders including depression. Research shows maladaptive ER strategies to be more strongly associated with symptoms ... -
Emotional intelligence : an investigation of discriminant and concurrent validity / Andrea Kohan.
(2002)Emotional intelligence (El) is a popularized concept, but one also being empirically examined for its validity as a construct of intelligence. Research has focused on determining its status as a unique ability that is ... -
Emotional memory in oral contraceptive users : Negative stimuli are more forgettable
(Sage, 2019)Recent research suggests oral contraceptive use is associated with altered memory for emotional story information, blunted stress hormone responses to emotional stimuli, and altered structure or function of the amygdala ... -
