The Effect of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury on Reaction Time, Dual-tasking Reaction Time and Heart Rate Variability in Driving Simulation
(2015)The present study was performed to address some gaps in current literature related to dual tasking, reaction time, and heart rate variability (HRV) in concussed individuals during driving simulation, and to determine the ... -
The effect of mode of presentation, stimulus concreteness, and verbalization on a paired-associates learning task
(1972)A 2x2x3x8 experimental design was used to investigate the effects of two levels of the concreteness dimension (i.e. concrete and abstract) of nouns; two levels of verbalization (i.e. verbalization and nonverbalization) and ... -
The effect of motivational interviewing training on knowledge, attitude, self-efficacy, subjective norm, and intent to use by undergraduate nurses to support people with substance use: a comparison of two learning styles
(2022)Mental health and well-being are a worldwide concern, especially in the last couple of years. From late 2020 to early 2022, high self-rated mental health decreased in Canadians aged 12 or older from 64% to 58% (Statistics ... -
The effect of Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid supplementation on lipid composition, oxidative stress, and aldehyde concentrations in rat liver and brain
(2014-01-22)Oxidative stress is caused by an imbalance between the production and removal of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), due to their multiple carbon-carbon double bonds, react readily with ROS ... -
Effect of oral glutamine supplementation on resting blood and saliva immune parameters in endurance trained athletes
(2001)There is considerable evidence suggesting that frequent, intense, long duration exercise is associated with adverse effects on the immune system as shown by a decrease in immune cell numbers and function. This may ... -
Effect of organic carbon to nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) ratios on the performance of a novel microalgal-bacterial membrane photobioreactor
(2021)*Embargoed until October 2024 -
Effect of periphytic Escherichia coli and lake water bacterial population on the biofilm establishment of a Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 strain
(2015)Biofilm studies Escherichia coli (E. coli) have typically focused on 0157:H7 in defined, laboratory medium. While there is value in such studies, they offer little in the way of explaining the behaviour and interactions ... -
The Effect of Pesticides on the Degradation of Oxobiodegradable Agricultural Mulch Films
(2015)Oxobiodegradable agriculture mulch films made from polyethylene (PE) are known to have many benefits for agriculture practice, including increased yields and resource efficiency, without the drawback of removing the ... -
Effect of photoperiod on apical growth cessation in tamarack (Larix laricina) and balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera) provenances from northern Ontario
(1990)The effects of four photoperiods (i.e. 6, 10, 14, and 18 hours) on the rate of apical growth cessation and apical bud primordia production were studied in controlled environment experiments using tamarack {Larix laricina ... -
Effect of physical fitness exercise on the distribution of plasma high density lipoprotein cholesterol and other lipid fractions
(1982)The effect of participation in a physical fitness programme of moderate intensity on plasma lipoprotein cholesterols, total cholesterol, triglycerides and apolipoprotein-A levels was investigated. Forty-nine inactive ... -
The effect of polyphenols on the angiotensin II receptor type 1 activation
(2017)Hypertension, an increase in blood pressure, can lead to many serious complications, one of which is heart failure. Angiotensin (Ang) II is associated with hypertension; specifically, the Ang II receptor type 1 (AGTR1) is ... -
Effect of prenatal cadmium exposure on development and behavior of selectively bred genetic lines of rat
(1988)PELLETIER, M. R. (1988). Effect of prenatal cadmium exposure on development and behavior of selectively bred genetic lines of rat: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of cadmium exposure as related ... -
The effect of removing examinees with low motivation on item response data calibration
(2014-01-22)Many item-response models (IRM) used to estimate student abilities and test item parameters in large-scale assessments (LSA) do not account for the effect of student low motivation. This effect may pose a threat to the ... -
Effect of rpoS inactivation on biofilm formation of a p-nitrophenol degrading Pseudomonas putida strain
(2005)With the widespread existence of environmental pollutants in the modern world, effective, non-destructive means of remediation are becoming more and more desirable as an alternative to the traditional excavation and ... -
Effect of seasonal training on selected physical and physiological variables of junior male alpine ski racers
(1990)The purpose of this study was threefold: 1) to investigate the effect of seasonal training on anthropometry, muscular strength and power, motor ability, flexibility, aerobic power, and anaerobic power and capacity, 2) ... -
Effect of seasonal wrestling training and unavoidable interventions on selected physiological parameters
(1979)The purpose of this study was to investigate, 1) the effect of seasonal wrestling training on aerobic and anaerobic power, physical working capacity (170), resting, maximal and recovery heart rate, 2) to determine the ... -
The effect of secoisolariciresinol diglucoside on oxidative stress and inflammation in cardiac iron overload
(2013-02-01)Chronic cardiac iron overload directly correlates with cardiac dysfunction and may ultimately cause heart failure. Although recent studies have suggested that altered calcium homeostasis and increased reactive oxygen ... -
Effect of semantic representations on episodic memory for unrelated sensory information
(1995)The present research investigated the integration of meaning and sensory information within episodic memory. Early research (e.g. Morris, Bransford & Franks, 1977; Stein, 1978, as well as Tulving & Thomson, 1973; Fisher ...
