Total ionizing dose radiation effects on germanium pMOS devices.
(2010-12-22)
Radiation effects on Ge pMOS devices have been presented in this thesis. The irradiation and annealing responses of Ge pMOSFETs are investigated as a function of device processing. Transmission gate bias is found to be the ...
Advertising, Women, and the Spaces of Change in Wilhelmine Germany
(2012-12-26)
This project examines representations of women in German advertising posters from the 1870s to 1914. I focus on the connection of these gendered images to two spaces at the forefront of social and cultural change in ...
Empirical Bayes Methods for Everyday Statistical Problems
(2017-01-27)
This work develops an empirical Bayes approach to statistical difficulties that arise in real-world applications. Empirical Bayes methods use Bayesian machinery to obtain statistical estimates, but rather than having a ...
Human DNA helicase B in replication fork surveillance and replication stress recovery
(2012-01-09)
Correct and faithful genome duplication is crucial for preserving genomic integrity. Genome duplication is, therefore, highly regulated through a complex network of proteins that accomplish DNA replication in addition to ...

Effectiveness of Peer-mediated Learning for English-language Learners: A Meta-analysis
(2012-12-26)
This dissertation presents the results of a meta-analysis of the effectiveness of peer-mediated learning for English Language Learners(ELLs). The sample included 44 independent studies reporting five distinct outcome types, ...
Large Radial Velocity Searches and Chemical Abundance Studies of Exoplanet-Hosting Stars
(2014-12-30)
In the era of large-scale surveys for exoplanets, it is important to be aware of the pernicious false positives that can contaminate survey samples. In this dissertation, it is shown that all radial velocity surveys for ...
A Public in Process: The Frankfurt School, The Allensbach Institute, and The Pursuit of "Public Opinion" in 1950s West Germany
(2012-12-26)
This project examines attempts to study and define public opinion in postwar Germany by two institutions: the Frankfurt School and the Allensbach Institute. I show how opinion researchers responded to theoretical frameworks ...
The Additive Effects of Augmentative and Alternative Communication Systems on Novel Word Learning
(2018-01-17)
The purpose of this study was to understand the potential benefit of auditory and pictorial components of alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) systems in facilitating novel word learning for typically developing ...
