    Gait analysis in normal and spinal contused mice using the TreadScan system

    No full text
    Advances in spinal cord injury (SCI) research are dependent on quality animal models, which in turn rely on sensitive outcome measures able to detect functional differences in animals following injury. To date, most measurements of dysfunction following SCI rely either on the subjective rating of observers or the slow throughput of manual gait assessment. The present study compares the gait of normal and contusion-injured mice using the TreadScan system. TreadScan utilizes a transparent treadmill belt and a high-speed camera to capture the footprints of animals and automatically analyze gait characteristics. Adult female C57Bl/6 mice were introduced to the treadmill prior to receiving either a standardized mild, moderate, or sham contusion spinal cord injury. TreadScan gait analyses were performed weekly for 10 weeks and compared with scores on the Basso Mouse Scale (BMS). Results indicate that this software successfully differentiates sham animals from injured animals on a number of gait characteristics, including hindlimb swing time, stride length, toe spread, and track width. Differences were found between mild and moderate contusion injuries, indicating a high degree of sensitivity within the system. Rear track width, a measure of the animal's hindlimb base of support, correlated strongly both with spared white matter percentage and with terminal BMS. TreadScan allows for an objective and rapid behavioral assessment of locomotor function following mild-moderate contusive SCI, where the majority of mice still exhibit hindlimb weight support and plantar paw placement during stepping

    How art integration increases core subject connections and retention

    No full text
    The research question addressed is, would integrated/thematic units increase retention in art? The motivating factor for this capstone was the struggle with students retaining information week to week. This capstone details the positives and negatives of integrated/thematic units and how effective they are in the classroom. Students at this middle school only have art once a week, causing retention problems. Key influence for this capstone was a teacher who inspired the writer to create a work of art researched in science class. Eric Jensen\u27s book Arts With the Brain in Mind (2001) voices that students can use visual arts in every class, every day. Arts integration brings art into the core of the school day and connects art across the curriculum. The author develops an integrated art lesson that will be taught to sixth grade middle school students. The students\u27 five core classes, science, social studies, language arts, math and reading, will incorporate the lesson in their classes

    Yes, But...Ruminations on Discounted Membership and Reference Group Rationalizations

    No full text
    Reference group theory posits that people attempt to identify themselves with groups that are esteemed in order to enhance their sense of self-worth. However, it is not uncommon that actors may find themselves being identified with, or identifying with, stigmatized groups or categories. In order to avoid the personally pejorative implications of these associations, these actors often engage in various strategies that take a form similar to accounts which attempt to neutralize possible stigma. Two fundamental normalizations, disidentification and deflected stigma are presented and compared to previous articulations in the literature of stigma management

    Chemical Quality of Irrigation Waters in West-central Kansas

    No full text
    The principal aquifer in southern Wallace, Greeley, Wichita, Scott, and Lane Counties is the Ogallala formation. Analysis of ground water samples collected from 154 irrigation wells in this 4 1/2 county area during summer of 1974 indicate waters of this region are basically calcium-magnesium bicarbonate in nature. Higher salinities and increased sulfate contents are observed for wells in parts of the Scott Basin area, which appear to be in association with saline soils. Compiled chemical quality data and chemical quality contour maps for the area of study are presented. This report represents the first phase of a program directed toward establishing base line chemical quality data for irrigation waters in western Kansas

    Silence and the crisis of self - legitimation in English romanticism

    No full text
    My thesis depicts the crisis of self-legitimation that has accompanied the onset of modern hermeneutics, with its historicised and organicised version of the Enlightenment's 'universal perspective.' In this it follows the lead of the contemporary hermeneuticist Hans- Georg Gadamer in resuscitating the notion of prejudice, but contrasts it with Hannah Arendt's discussion of the human condition. She implicitly locates the problem in modern hermeneutics, the aporia, in the very philosophy of life that Gadamer embraces as its solution. Gadamer confuses the task of the humanities as a search for truth with what it ought to be, a search for meaning. I begin with his depiction of Kant's attack on the sensus communis; I conclude with an examination of the consequences of this attack on the orientation and interpretative practices of current schools of literary criticism with specific reference to Keats's Ode on a Grecian Urn. In the central chapter, I focus upon Coleridge's attack on Wordsworth's Preface to Lyrical Ballads (1802) in the Bioeraphia Literaria, reading it as a fundamental defence of prejudice based on the very fact that man has been made in imago Dei. The consequent logocentricity of humanity that Coleridge insists upon opposes Wordsworth's emphasis upon a transcendental idea of 'feeling.' This fundamental notion forms the basis of Coleridge's definition of the primary imagination. I argue the distinctiveness of his definition from that of the other Romantics and maintain its necessity to escape the aporia. This point is proved negatively by Shelley's Mont Blanc, which seizes upon the radical consequences of Wordsworth's poetics, presenting both heresy and obscurity in the poem. The word 'crisis' thus reflects the urgency with which I advocate the need to re-adopt Coleridge's emphases in contemporary literary criticism
