1. I plan to administer a survey to approximately 150 undergraduate and graduate students under the age of 25 attending the University of Northern Colorado. The survey will be comprised of selected subscales from four assessments. Additionally, a demographic questionnaire will be administered. I will administer the survey online during the 2017 spring semester, which will take place between January and May 2017. Selected items for each survey and the consent form are included in Appendices A-F.…
absorbance value of 0.3576 , the concentration of the Cu-cuprizone solution were obtained at 0.001389g/L with reference to the graph of the standard solution A to D. The graph of absorbance against concentration of the standard solution A to D shows a linear relationship hence absorbance is proportional to the concentration. This concentration obtained would be used for the calculation of the mass percentage of copper in purified CuI. The percentage mass of copper in purified CuI were then…
Introduction: Caffeine (1, 3, 7-trimethylxanthine) is the most widely consumed psychoactive drug in the world. It has antioxidant and insecticide properties that can affect metabolism and cognition. Men and women aged 35 to 64 years are among the highest consumers of caffeine. Major sources of caffeine were coffee (71%), soft drinks (16%), and tea (12%). Coffee was the major source of caffeine in the diets of adults, whereas soft drinks were the primary source for children and teens [2].…

rules and theorems that seemed only relevant for that section. We learned about sine, cosine, and tangent, which were chiseled in our brain. In high school we were introduced to things I didn’t know existed, such as derivatives, 4-step problems, linear regression lines. When I am asked the question what is math, I still seem to divert my attention to the elementary school response and explain that math is finite and always has an answer despite my knowledge that it doesn’t…
flights into the hub connecting to three flights out of the hub. Given the capacities, revenues, and deterministic demands on all possible itineraries in the network, the students formulate a linear programming model to determine how capacity should be partitioned among customers. This approach—using a deterministic linear program to…
Summarization: Terrestriality was suggested to have been more common in the past than it is today, according to primate fossil records obtained from many museums around the country. This terrestriality is more prominent amongst cercopithecoid primates. Preference of habitually terrestrial substrates was based on primate forelimb anatomy. Extant large-bodied terrestrial…

Depression is an important issue to study in adolescents because of its increasing prevalence. 12.5% of adolescents aged 12-17 have suffer from depression; 19.5% of women and 5.8% of men (National Institute of Mental Health). This is a significant percentage of the population and is especially important to study because depression is frequently linked to suicide in adolescents. Risk taking is also widely seen in the behavior of adolescents (Jessor, 1991). This risky behavior can be defined in a…
