Locus of control and sex-role beliefs in the prediction of assertiveness
(1992)Locus of control has been identified as a strong predictor of assertiveness for men, but not for women. It was hypothesized that sex-role beliefs might moderate the locus of control-assertiveness link among women. In ... -
Logging residue from the tropical high forests in the western region of Ghana
(2000)In the face of increasing demand for industrial wood and the serious reduction of the forest resource base in Ghana, logging is reported to be wasteful. However, the level of wastage or residue generation has not been ... -
Logging residue sampling methodology for Northeastern Ontario
(1993)The objective of this study was to develop and test statistically justifiable methods of estimating logging residue in cutover areas of northeastern Ontario. Two sampling designs and ten sample units were chosen and ... -
Loneliness : an examination of the nonverbal behaviors that accompany self-disclosures in unstructured conversations
(1993)Loneliness is an interpersonal problem that involves a lack of intimacy and inappropriate self-disclosure patterns. Double bind theory predicts that high selfdisclosures should normally be accompanied by highintimate nonverbal ... -
Loneliness and disclosure processes in early adolescence
(1988)Research has shown that, in comparison to nonlonely adults, lonely adults show problems in self-^^disclosure intimacy with peers and the current study was designed to assess whether lonely adolescents exhibit these ... -
Loneliness and disclosure to peers by early adolescents
(1992)The present research was designed to investigate the differences between lonely and non-lonely early adolescents in: (a) their disclosures to familiar peers and, (b) their perceptions of their relations with familiar ... -
Long-term effects of timber management on marten (Martes americana) habitat potential in an Ontario boreal forest
(1993)To evaluate the hypothesis that current forest management practices in the boreal forest are decreasing the quantity and quality of long-term marten habitat, and alternative, more suitable strategies exist, a ... -
Long-term follow-up of a community-based treatment program for adolescent sex offenders
(2000)The effectiveness of adolescent sex offender treatment has received relatively little study when compared to the treatment outcome literature with adult sex offenders. Examined even less are the factors associated with ... -
Low temperature pyrolysis of wood waste materials
(1976)The pyrolysis of jack pine bark, jack pine sawdust, and cellulose powder has been studied by thermogravimetric (TG), and isothermal weight-loss methods in both inert and oxidizing atmospheres. The effects of particle ... -
Lumber recovery, a leaf area model, and water use in response to commercial thinning, for plantation grown black spruce (Picea mariana [Mills] B.S.P.) / by Steven M. Young.
(2008)Three black spruce (Picea mariana [Mills] B.S.P.) plantations (Airstrip, Boom Lake and Tyrol Lake), in northwestern Ontario, with varied stand densities (2806 stems ha[superscript -1], 2285 stems ha[superscript -1], and ... -
Luminescent response of phosphors and scintillators to ions with energies in the 0-100 KeV range
(1973)A survey of the ionoluminescence of a large number of ion-phosphor combinations under uniform conditions has been made. Powdered phosphors and scintillation crystals with different activators, different methods of surface ... -
Magnetic fabrics and boundary structure at the Quetico - Shebandowan subprovince boundary, near Kashabowie, NW Ontario
(1990)The Quetico metasedimentary subprovince and the volcanic-plutonic Shebandowan belt to the south meet along an east-west steeply dipping boundary that is believed to have been affected by dextral transpressional deformation. ... -
The magnetic fabrics and strain history of the Achean Seine Group metasedimentary rocks near Mine Centre, Northwestern Ontario
(1992)The Seine Group metasedimentary rocks are situated between two converging major dextral transcurrent faults, the Quetico Fault to the north and the Seine River Fault to the south. To the west lies the Bad Vermillion ... -
Magnetic fabrics from sheeted dikes reveal regional magma flow patterns, and the spacing and dimensions of ophiolite magma-chambers, Troodos ophiolite, Cyprus
(2002)Orientation-distributions of crystals were determined for 1289 specimens of the Sheeted Dike Complex of the Troodos ophiolite, located on the island of Cyprus. These were inferred from anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility ... -
