Behavioral confirmation of loneliness in dyadic conversations
(1995)This study was designed to examine the self-fulfilling nature of the social stigma of loneliness. It was hypothesized that individuals (perceivers) would be less warm and friendly in dyadic conversations with persons ... -
Behaviour and reproductive success of female-female pairs of Ring-billed gulls (Larus delawarenis), Granite Island
(1982)Female-female pairs of Ring-billed Gulls were studied on Granite Island, northern Lake Superior, during the breeding seasons of 1979 and 1980. In 1979 the colony consisted of approximately 2400 pairs with 99 nests (4.1%) ... -
Behavioural effects of benzodiazepines following metrazol-induced seizures
(1986)Previous research indicates that seizures cause transient and in some cases, long lasting increases in the density of benzodiazepine receptors in the brain. The present research sought to discover the behavioural effects ... -
Beliefs about the fetus as a moderator of postabortion adjustment
(1993)The purpose of this study was to determine whether women who have had abortions report different levels of well-being than women who have not had abortions, and to examine the possible moderating effect of perceived ... -

Best practices in HIV/AIDS programming for non-governmental organizations [research project]
(2009)HIV/AIDS is the most devastating illness of modem day. There were thirty-three million people living with HIV/AIDS in 2007, and there were two million AIDS deaths. In his hook. Race Against Time, Stephen Lewis explains ... -
Bidentate phosphine complexes of copper (I) : their syntheses and interactions with sodium tetrahydroborate and sodium cyanotrihydroborate
(1981)Copper(l) chloride and perchlorate complexes of the types (L~L)CuCl, (L-L)[subscript 3]Cu[subscript2]X[subscript2] (X=Cl-,C10-4), C(L-L)[subscript2]Cu]C10[subscript4] (L-L=DPPM, DPPE, trans VPP, cis VPP, DPPP, DPPB,DPPPe,DPPH) ... -
Biodegradation of fenitrothion and fenitrooxon by the soil fungus Trichoderma viride
(1987)The biodegradation of fenitrothion (0,0-dimethyl-0-(3-methyl-4-nitrophenyl)- phosphorothioate and fenitrooxon (0,0-dimethyl-0-(3-methyl-4-nitrophenyl)phosphate by the soil fungus Trichoderma viride Pers. has been ... -
Biodiversity and forest management : five forest management plans evaluated
(2000)The five forest management plans evaluated are: Trout Lake, Nipissing, French-Severn, Kapuskasing, and, Whiskey Jack. -
Biological aspects of the biopulping fungus Ceriporiopsis subvermispora
(2002)The specific activity of four isolates of C. subvermispora media was found to be quite variable. Growth on PDA was the fastest compared to other common nutrient media. Cardinal temperatures for growth were optimum at ... -
Biology and histopathology of Proteocephalus ambloplitis Liedy, 1887, infecting walleye (Stizostedion vitreum vitreum) and yellow perch (Perea flavescens) in Lake of the Woods, Ontario
(1985)Walleye (Stizostedion vitreum vitreum ) and yellow perch (Perea flavescens ) from Lake of the Woods were examined for parenteral Proteocephalus ambloplitis from May to November, 1982 and 1983. One hundred percent of ... -
Biology of "peak" and "late" nesting Ring-billed gulls, Granite Island, Lake Superior
(1982)Late-nesting Ring-billed Gulls in this study laid fewer and smaller eggs and hatched fewer young than earlier nesting pairs. Birds nesting late in the season appeared to lack sufficient stimuli for incubation, as indicated ... -
Biology of Cystidicola farionis Fischer, 1798 (Nematoda : Cystidicolidae) in salmonid fishes
(1987)Morphological studies, experimental cross-infections and host specificity data suggest that the species of swimbladder nematode which matures in Coregonus clupeaformis, from inland lakes is not distinct from Cystidicola ... -
Biology of rumen flukes (Trematoda: Paramphistomatidae) in moose, Alces alces L., in northwestern Ontario
(1985)Paramphistoines {Parampbistomum sp.) were found in 86% of 160 moose rumens collected from northwestern Ontario at all seasons of the year. All moose older than 2.4 years were infected. The number of flukes per moose ranged ... -
Biology of the gastro-intestinal helminths of woodland and barren-ground caribou (Rangifer tarandus)
(1987)Twenty-one species of helminths were recovered from wild and captive caribou (Rangifer tarandus). Woodland caribou of the Slate Islands, barren-ground caribou of the Beverly herd and captive woodland caribou were parasitized ... -
Biomechanical characteristics of development age hockey players : determining the confounding effects of body size on the assessment of skating technique
(2002)Skating ability, and more specifically the ability to accelerate from a stationary position or change direction rapidly, is recognized as one of the most important skills in ice hockey. While coaches may use drills to ... -
Black spruce (Picea mariana [Mill.] B.S.P.) boreal ecosystems : how tree-length and full-tree harvesting affects soil microbial populations
(2000)To evaluate the hypothesis that microbial populations are affected by organic biomass removals, a study was designed to complement ongoing work in a black spruce {Picea mariana [Mill.] B.S.P.) Boreal ecosystem. The ...
