The Effect of Parental Internalizing Symptoms and Overprotection on Child Sleep Problems
(2020-08-27)Parents’ internalizing symptoms and parental overprotection are well established predictors of anxiety and depression in children. Impaired sleep in youth also predicts the onset of anxiety and depression later in life. ... -
Effect of Pasture and Lipid Supplementation on Production Performance, Carcass Quality, Fatty Acid Composition and Lipid Metabolism of Lamb
(2013-08-09)The significance of diet during the growing and finishing of lambs on production and lipid metabolism was studied. Thirty-two intact 5-6 month old Suffolk cross ram lambs that had previously grazed either red clover (RC) ... -
Effect of PCM Selection on the Thermal Performance of a Coil-in-Shell Storage System
(2023-11-14)The lack of design rules for the design and selection of phase change material-based thermal energy storage (PCM-TES) systems using heat exchangers is a major impediment to the development and general acceptance of such ... -
THE EFFECT OF PERLITE AND MINERAL WOOL LEACHATE SOLUTIONS ON THE CORROSION BEHAVIOURS OF PIPELINE STEELS
(2023-09-01)This study provides an extensive in-depth analysis of the issue of corrosion under insulation (CUI), with an overview of the capabilities and limitations of the latest nondestructive evaluation techniques, commonly employed ... -
The effect of phosphorylation on oxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) sterol binding activity
(2012-09-11)Oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) binds 25-hydroxycholesterol (25OH) and cholesterol, which regulates PH and FFAT domain interaction with the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum, respectively. Adjacent to these ... -
EFFECT OF PHYSICAL, CHEMICAL, AND BIOLOGICAL TREATMENT PROCESSES ON BIOSOLID NITROGEN (N) FORMS AND THEIR INFLUENCE ON SOIL N MINERALIZATION DYNAMICS AND N-ACQUIRING ENZYME ACTIVITIES IN AN ACIDIC SOIL
(2023-04-28)Biosolids application to soils has been seen as a sustainable agricultural practice to recycle organic matter and nutrients and mitigate climate change. Four different types of biosolids were produced by treating an identical ... -
The effect of Pleistocene climatic changes on the sediments around the Grand Banks.
(Dalhousie University, 1979) -
The effect of predictable refixation on inhibition of return
(2015)Inhibition of Return (IOR) refers to slowed responding to stimuli appearing at recently attended locations, and it has been reported for simple detection responses but also saccadic eye movements and even reaching movements ... -
The Effect of Pseudomonas aeruginosa on the Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Response in Mammalian Cells
(2020-08-28)Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen imposing serious threat to cystic fibrosis patients. P. aeruginosa is equipped with many virulence factors that are controlled by the quorum sensing (QS) systems. These ... -
Effect of Pyroligneous Acid Application on Tomato Growth and Alleviation of Aluminum Stress
(2023-08-24)Aluminum (Al) toxicity is a major constraint to global crop production in acidic soils. Pyroligneous acid (PA), a reddish-brown smoky liquid produced during the pyrolysis of biomass, can enhance crop growth and tolerance ... -
Effect of Salinity, Photoperiod, Temperature, and Restricted Food Intake on Growth and Incidence of Sexual Maturation of Labrador Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus)
(2012-09-17)Economic viability of Fraser River, Labrador Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) aquaculture in Atlantic Canada may be greatly improved if grow-out could be completed in seawater (30 ppt), while having a low incidence of ... -
The Effect of Sex and Menstrual Cycle Phase on Neuromuscular Control of Trunk Musculature
(2012-09-11)Women have higher rates of noncontact musculoskeletal injuries compared to men, as well as at certain times in their menstrual cycles compared to others. The purpose of this study was two-fold: i) to examine the neuromuscular ... -
The Effect of Situational Speaking Anxiety on Stuttering Frequency in Adults Who Stutter
(2003-12)The purpose of this study was to examine whether there is a relationship between degree of speaking anxiety, pressure to not stutter, and stuttering in varying speaking situations using two different methodologies. In Study ... -
Effect of Soil Variability on Wild Blueberry Fruit Yield
(2010-12-22)Two wild blueberry fields were selected in central Nova Scotia, to characterize and quantify the spatial pattern of variability in soil properties, leaf nutrients and fruit yield, identification of yield influencing soil ... -
