The outcomes and effectiveness of two self-disclosure techniques
(1974)It has been shown that there is a dyadic effect in regard to self-disclosure. This dyadic effect refers to the fact that the more one says about one's self the more another person is likely to say about their self. Two ... -
Outdoor play-based number sense and numeration experiences for primary levelled students
(2019)Classroom educators have a great deal of responsibility beyond the generally understood career description of delivering lessons. As educators are creating well thought out lessons that are differentiated to meet the ... -
Outplanting performance of Pinus strobus, Pinus resinosa, Pinus banksiana, and Picea glauca from different nurseries, and with different container types within Algonquin Park
(2020)Understanding planting performance of seedlings is integral to the forest industry of Canada. Many factors are involved in the performance of the seedlings once planted in the field. Factors include site conditions, planter ... -
Outward bound Giwaykiwin: wilderness-based Indigenous education
(2008)This study takes a critical approach to Outward Bound Canada's Giwaykiwin program through a lens of decolonizing Indigenous education. The worldwide organization of Outward Bound, and assumptions about the universal ... -
An overview and update of low-impact developments (LIDS) in Thunder Bay
(2023)Climate change is accelerating at a rapid pace across the globe and with this, flooding in urban environments is also increasing. This means that there is and will be an increasing need for alternative methods of stormwater ... -
Overweight women who join weight reducing clubs and the internal-external personality trait
(1975)The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between attempts made by overweight women to lose weight and the internal-external (I-E) personality dimension. It was hypothesized that: 1) Overweight ... -
The ovulatory shift: proceptive and receptive mating behaviours across the menstrual cycle
(2015-08-05)Research has suggested an ovulatory shift whereby women become more oriented towards short-term mating around the time of ovulation. Other research suggests that women’s cyclical shifts depend on their sociosexuality and ... -
Ovulatory shifts among pair-bonded women regarding their extra-pair attraction and self-perceived mate value
(2017)The objective of the current research was to examine the potential influence of fertility status across the phases of the menstrual cycle (MC) on women’s romantic relationship dynamics. Specifically, women’s feelings and ... -
P-type gallium nitride semiconductor development and characterization for LEDs and other devices
(2013)Migration Enhanced Afterglow (AIEAglow) is proposed as a fabrication technology to produce high indium content indium gallium nitride (IriGaN) LEDs operating in the green wavelengths. This research presents results for ... -
Packet scheduling for AMC-based OFDMA wireless communication systems
(2008)In this thesis, we propose a basic priority and fairness (BPF) and a modified priority and fairness (MPF) based packet scheduling algorithms for adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) scheme based orthogonal frequency division ... -
Painting like a housewife : an inquiry into gender bias in professional art education
(2005)Primary research method consisted of in-depth interviews with 10 female artists from Thunder Bay, Northwestern Ontario, Canada. -
Paleoecology of a wild rice (Zizania spp.) lake in Northwestern Ontario
(2018)The high density of archaeological sites around Whitefish Lake, coupled with abundant wild rice currently growing there circumstantially indicates that this resource was economically important to precontact people. This ... -
Paleomagnetic secular field variation and rock magnetism of some early holocene (<9900BP) postglacial lacustrine sediments near Thunder Bay, Northwestern Ontario, Canada
(2006)Paleosecular magnetic changes through a 1.5m section of post-glacial lacustrine deposits are strongly influenced by mineralogy and differential compaction. The sediments chiefly comprise clay and, in the lower one third ... -
Paleomagnetism, structure and magnetic fabrics in a traverse of the Quetico subprovince between Atikokan and Kashabowie, NW Ontario
(1993)The metasedimentary rocks along the traverse reveal low to high grade metamorphism from chlorite schist near Atikokan, through biotite schist to migmatites in the west within the centre of the Quetico Belt. Continuing ... -
Paleoproterozoic snowball earth? Sedimentology and geochemistry of a Huronian glacial cycle
(2019)The study discusses new sedimentological and geochemical results for the Paleoproterozoic Bruce glacial cycle, which represents the second of three glacial cycles within the Huronian Supergroup. This Bruce glacial event ... -
Panic attacks, hypochondriacal concerns, and selective processing of threat cues
(1997)Cognitive theories of panic disorder and hypochondriasis were investigated using a modification of the Stroop Colour-naming Task. Sixty-two participants were divided into four groups (hypochondriacal panickers, ... -
Parallel algorithms for the iterative solution of large sparse linear systems
(1982)In this thesis we are concerned with iterative parallel algorithms for solving finite difference equations arising from boundary value problems. We propose various new methods based on approximate inverses. The Jacobi ... -
The parasite communities of two populations of walleye (Sander vitreus) from Black Bay and Circle Lake, Ontario, Canada
(2017)The parasite communities of fishes can provide important information on certain aspects of host biology such as where they have been, what they are eating, and what’s eating them. Unfortunately, fish parasite studies in ... -
Parent and child attitudes towards educational and occupational achievement as a function of acculturation
(2001)As individuals and families move from India to Canada, they bring with them the values, attitudes, and beliefs they held in their native country. During the process of building new lives in a new country the immigrants ...
