Thumbnail for 'The Correlation Between Physical Training for Adventure Experiences and Self-Efficacy'
Format:
Pdf
"Previous research has suggested that physical training or exercise improves the development of self-efficacy. Additionally, separate research has suggested that engaging in adventure experiences such as a whitewater rafting, rock-climbing, and mountaineering may also improve the development of self-efficacy. However, there is no existing research that measured the effectiveness of both physical training in conjunction with an adventure experience...
Thumbnail for 'American Realpolitik and the Evolution of the Russo-Finnish Winter War, 1939-1940.'
Format:
Pdf
My work centers on the Russo-Finnish Winter War that started on November 30, 1939 and ended with the Moscow Peace Treaty on March 13, 1940. Contextually this conflict fits into the early part of World War II. After the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union in September 1939, the Soviets turned their territorial interests to the Baltic States and Finland. The popular narrative asserts that the United States, under legal restrictions...
Thumbnail for 'Transgender Young Adult Experiences: Shifting Normative Expectations and Experiences'
Format:
Pdf
Previous research regarding the transgender experience has indicated there are normative sets of gendered behavior and presentation expectations experienced by transgender individuals in America. While these expectations have been studied in the context of older transgender individuals, little research has been done in reference to the current generation of transgender young adults. Eighty-six transgender young adults participated in an online survey...
Thumbnail for 'Exploring the Effect of Domestic Violence on Children Growing Up in the Home'
Format:
Pdf
Domestic violence has been a cultural taboo. My research began with exploring the historic reality of domestic violence. I looked at the social context of domestic violence and how social movements led to legislation of domestic violence laws. While domestic violence is defined in the state of Colorado as being between two intimate partners, there are often children living in the home where the violence occurs. Recognizing this, I explored the effect...
Thumbnail for 'Proteomic Characterization and Cloning of Glucokinase and Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) Carboxykinase in Acidobacterium Capsulatum.'
Format:
Pdf
Acidobacterium capsulatum is an environmental bacterium that is relatively abundant in soil and aquatic environments, prefers pH 3 for optimal growth, and encapsulates itself in a polysaccharide. Little is known about the biochemistry and physiology of this organism, but its genome has been completed and growth conditions have been found that support growth on glucose as a single carbon source. We are focusing on the metabolism of glucose and the...
Thumbnail for 'The Effect of Skin Tone on Level of Attractiveness'
Format:
Pdf
The majority of the studies conducted on skin tone involve the two dominate racial groups, white and black, rather than other racial minorities. The objective of this study was to investigate how skin tone affects perceptions of attractiveness. Participants (N = 90) rated the attractiveness of computer generated "ethnic" looking females with light skin, medium skin, or dark skin. Based on previous research, we hypothesized that the light skin...
Thumbnail for 'Digraphs of Rings'
Format:
Pdf
The digraph of a finite field, Zp, denoted ψ(Zp), has p2 vertices. Of these, ((p^2−2)/2) are sources and ((p^2+2)/2) are non-sources, where p is the order of the finite field Zp. If we expand each vertex in ψ(Zp) to a set of q^2 vertices in ψ(Zpq) we can generate all of the vertices in ψ(Zpq). We show that we can count the number of source vertices in any directed graph of Zpq through the expansion of source and non-source vertices in Zp.

Format:
Pdf
The La Plata Mountains are one of several laccolithic complexes in northwestern New Mexico and southwestern Colorado that formed ~70 Ma during the Laramide orogeny. Base metal and tellurium-rich Au-Ag-Hg-PGE deposits formed in hydrothermal systems during or after the emplacement and crystallization of potassic intrusive rocks. The La Plata mining district contains a complex history of mineralization defined by late-stage precious metal deposits. The...
Thumbnail for 'The Case for Parental Rights as Property Rights'
Format:
Pdf
In this presentation I will argue that parental rights are property rights by applying John Locke's theory of property ownership. I will then explore what this theory implies about parental rights when children are abused by their parents, when children are born as a result of rape, and when children are the unintentional result of consensual sex between two persons who did not previously intend to have children together.
