20 and 40 c/sec power functions in the visual, motor, and auditory cortices of the cat during three levels of performance in a successive visual discrimination task
(1969)The electrical activity in 5 frequency bands in the arousal spectrum was studied in the primary visual cortex, motor cortex, and primary auditory cortex of one cat during prestimulus (PS) and stimulus periods at 3 levels ... -
3-amino-1-phenoxybutan-2-ols and 1-amino-3-phenoxybutan-2-ols as potentially active beta-adrenergic antagonists
(1974)To study the relationship between side-chain methylation and selective beta-receptor antagonism, eight aminophenoxybutanols were prepared, comprised of two series containing four compounds each: (A) 3-amino-1-phenoxybuta ... -
40 HZ EEG and focused arousal behavior in the cat
(1985)The relationship between 40 HZ EEG and focused arousal behavior has been investigated in 6 cats. Indwelling chronic electrodes were implanted in the nucleus parabrachialis (PB) of the rostral pons, lateral geniculate nucleus ... -
40 HZ. power functions in MBI and normal children during performance of behavioral tasks
(1971)The electrical activity in 3 frequency bands in the 'arousal spectrum' was studied in the right parietal-occipital area of 10 male learning disordered (MBI) children (age, M=10.26, SD=1.31; IQ, M=98.00, SD=7.51) and 10 ... -
40Hz activity in MBI, LLD and normal children: a comparative EEG study
(1976)EEGs were recorded on three groups of children classified as Normals (N=22, mean age=10.08, mean IQ=102.32), Language-Learning Disability (LLD, N=29, mean age=9.91, mean IQ=99.36) and Minimal Brain Injured (MBI, N=25, mean ... -
A and B therapists in a therapeutic interview: A study of behavioral and attitudinal distinctions
(1968)The experiment investigated the relationship between psychotherapist's personal characteristics and the psychotherapeutic relationship. More specifically, the relationship between the AB dimension and some of the presumed ... -
A baccalaureate degree program in nursing at San Francisco State College
(1955)This report is a presentation and interpretation of a baccalaureate degree program in nursing designed specifically for San Francisco State College, It was developed on the basis of regulations of the California Administrative ... -
A basic driven microprocessor based experimentation system
(1978)This thesis describes a set of programs designed to extend the capability of the BASIC language to allow periodic acquisition of signals and control of devices. These programs allow a system user to define sets of inputs ... -
A basic operating system for TI-960A minicomputer
(1977)Presented in this thesis is an operating system that is designed for teaching minicouputer operating system fundamentals. With a minimum investment in a miniconputer, software support is needed to provide aids for student ... -
A batch operating system for a Microdata 1600/30 : intercommunication between processes
(1975)Part of the implementation of a general purpose batch Operating System for a MICRODATA 1600/30 is presented in this thesis. This Operating System, with a resident of 4K bytes only, works in a minimum configuration of 16K ... -
A Bayesian analysis of employment interviewers' errors in processing positive and negative information
(1977)It is a pervasive finding in the interviewing literature that unfavorable information has more influence upon interviewer's judgements than favorable information. Hollmann (1971) has proposed that interviewers process ... -
A behavioral description of family interactions in the home and the clinic : Inter and intra setting analysis
(1973)Thirty average families were observed for three evenings as they ate dinner in their own homes. They were also observed eating dinner for an additional session in a structured setting in the clinic. The family behaviors ... -
A blood pump for closed-chest left ventricular bypass
(1969)In the quest for more effective and less traumatic methods of treating heart failure the Baylor University College of Medicine, Department of Physiology, has developed a new method of left ventricular assistance. The method ... -
A boundary method for calculating the growth of an instability in a system of two fluids
(1967)A boundary method is presented to solve numerically the problem of gravitational instability for large perturbations in a system of two visco-elastic materials. It is assumed that the inertial terms in the Navier-Stokes[raised ... -
A brief history of the saxophone and a guide to study materials
(1968)Although the saxophone has been in existence for one hundredtwenty-six years, the instrument's history is brief in comparison to that of other wind instruments. In chapter one, the history of the instrument is traced from ... -
A cardiovascular control system simulation for exericse
(1972)A mathematical model and digital computer simulation of the human cardiovascular system and its controls are developed to simulate transient responses to bicycle ergometer exercise. The purpose of the model is to provide ... -
A case study to develop accounting procedures for financial reporting of investments in fixed assets and for centralized budgetary control of capital expenditures
(1953)It is the purpose of this study to provide operating management, namely the division superintendent, with comparisons of capital expenditures and budget estimates for each operating division. In order to provide such ... -
A categorization of the theory of generalized-inverses of matrices
(1970)This study is a survey of the theory of the generalized-inverses of matrices as defined by Penrose. The material has been categorized under the following major areas: the Generalized-Inverse, the Reflexive Generalized-Inverse, ... -
