Trauma Treatment: The Influence Of Social Workers' Knowledge, Perceived Self-efficacy, And Use Of Evidence-based Interventions
(Social Work, 2014-07-14)
This research report asserts that trauma is pervasive and of those traumatized, 10 to 20 percent develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD symptoms do not automatically dissolve, thereby making treatment necessary. ...
Simulation Feasibility Studies Of A High Density fNIRS Imaging System
(Biomedical Engineering, 2014-09-17)
Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a technique that enables monitoring brain function, by detecting changes in near-infrared light absorbance resulting from changes in brain hemodynamics during periods of ...
The Emergence Of Women City Managers In Texas In The Late 20th Century And The Early 21st Century
(Urban & Public Affairs, 2014-03-10)
The first generation of women city managers in the late 20th Century and early 21st Century have one thing in common: all were initially mentored and promoted by men. Like survivors of a Texas tornado that huddle in the ...
Investigation Of Degradation In Advanced Analog MOS Technologies
(Electrical Engineering, 2014-03-12)
The focus of this work is to study the noise and degradation in advanced high and low voltage analog Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFET). Medium and high voltage transistors, especially lateral ...
Miniature Wireless Gastrostimulator
(Electrical Engineering, 2014-03-10)
Gastroparesis is a common disorder caused to patients suffering from diabetes, cancer and Parkinson's disease. Gastric electrical stimulation (GES) has attracted significant attention in the treatment for Gastroparesis. ...
A pH Sensor Based On A Flexible Substrate
(Electrical Engineering, 2014-03-10)
pH sensor is an essential component used in many chemical, food, and bio-material industries. Conventional glass electrodes have been used to construct pH sensors, however, have some disadvantages. Glass electrodes are ...
Computational Modeling Of Drug Release From Nerve Guide Conduit Of Different Designs
(Biomedical Engineering, 2014-07-14)
Currently there are limited effective strategies and surgical methods for repairing gap peripheral nerve injuries. Autografts are commonly used but with major limitation in the availability of donor graft material and the ...
Graphical Event-Directed Scenario Behavioral Specifications for the Scenario-Based Engineering Process (SEP) Using A Domain Specific Software Architecture (ASSA) Philosophy
(Computer Science, 2014-06-17)
This thesis extends scenarios of a system into real-time event digraphs. A scenario is an event trace resulting from a particular thread of system execution. An event digraph is an event network. Multiple external stimuli ...
Development Of SERS Nanoprobes For Multiplexed And Multi-modality Molecular Diagnosis Of Cancer
(Biomedical Engineering, 2014-03-10)
Importance of cancer diagnosis and staging through molecular biomarker detection is evident in the increasing number of molecular biomarkers being discovered that are associated with specific cancers types with their role ...
Evaluating Heat Sink Performance In An Immersion-cooled Server System
(Mechanical Engineering, 2014-09-17)
As operating power within server systems continues to increase in support of increased data usage across networks worldwide, it is necessary to explore options outside of traditional air-cooled systems. In this study, a ...
