Pharmacological therapy versus cognitive processing therapy in treating veterans with PTSD
Veterans often suffer from PTSD which can be treated both with pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment. Exploration has shown that CPT is preferred over pharmacological therapy, however it is suggested that combined therapy can be beneficial due to the complexity of PTSD.

Gilliam, Frank
Professor
PhD Forest Ecology, Duke University, 1983
MF Forest Ecology, Duke University, 1978
BS General Biology, Vanderbilt University, 1976
Most of what Dr. Gilliam does lies at the boundary between the levels of terrestrial plant communities and ecosystems. Gilliam particularly is interested in the movement and cycling of plant nutrients within terrestrial ecosystems. Directly related to this are interests in fire ecology and the effects of fire on nutrient cycling and on plants and soils in fire-prone ecosystems.

Completing partial transversals of Cayley tables of Abelian groups
In 2003 Grüttmüller proved that if n ⩾ 3 is odd, then a partial transversal of the Cayley table of ℤₙ with length 2 is completable to a transversal. Additionally, he conjectured that a partial transversal of the Cayley table of ℤₙ with length k is completable to a transversal if and only if n is odd and either n ∈ {k, k + 1} or n ⩾ 3k - 1. Cavenagh, Hämäläinen, and Nelson (in 2009) showed the conjecture is true when k = 3 and n is prime. In this paper, we prove Grüttmüller's conjecture for k = 2 and k = 3 by establishing a more general result for Cayley tables of Abelian groups of odd order.Journal ArticleFinal article publishe
Large data query for the exploration of employee wellbeing in a call center
The need for instant customer service has increased as the reliance on technology has become our main source of assistance. Call centers provide customers with 24 hour access to customer service, but at what cost? In this exploration, the need to assess what employee wellbeing is, and how it is being affected in the Navy Federal call Center has been brought to the forefront
Solvatochromism Of NNDAP-O-CH3
The solvatochromic properties of a novel fluorophore, 4-[2-[2-(dimethylamino)-3-pyridyl]ethynyl]anisole (NNDAP-O-CH3), developed by Dr. Tanay Kesharwani of The University of West Florida was studied. The absorption and emission spectra of the fluorophore in various solvents were measured. The ground state and singlet excited state dipole moments were determined using the Bilot-Kawski, Lippert-Mataga, Bakhshiev, and Reichardt correlation methods. The magnitude to which a certain solvent property contributes to the observed solvatochromic shifts was investigated using both Kamlet-Taft and Catalan models. The experimental system and environment are being computationally modeled in Gaussian16. Predictions of the software will be compared to experimental evidence to propose structural and dynamic factors contributing to the phenomenon as well as to predict other properties of the molecule
