A therapist survey of evidence-based practices in publicly funded youth mental health
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
sizes in controlled clinical trials for evidence-based treatments (EBTs) for youth MH problems (Weisz, Jensen-Doss & Hawley, 2006). One potential reason for this discrepancy may be that therapists within TAU contexts are not implementing EBTs. To date...
Longitudinal, naturalistic study of training and support for implementation of evidence-based youth mental health practices among community providers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
support in evidence-based practices (EBPs). To address this need, the current study describes the reach and impact of a county-wide youth MH initiative aimed at increasing youths' and families' access to effective youth MH services by providing free EBP...
Fluorescence spectroscopy and parallel factor analysis of waters from municipal waste sources
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy is becoming a valuable tool for studying the complex nature of dissolved organic matter. EEMs can identify fluorescence emitting organic substances (fluorophores) based on fluorescence peak...
Direct contact heat exchanger development
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
. Experimental data was gathered with a temperature and humidity controlled wind tunnel having a 15 cm square test section that utilized flat-fan water sprays as the working fluid/surface. The data was used to develop an overall sensible heat transfer correlation...
An examination of musical instrument practice among collegiate musicians
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
indicated that collegiate instrumentalists should (a) develop and strengthen self-regulation skills, (b) arrange practice time based on individual schedules, and (c) cope with challenges through discussing potential solutions with peers and instrumental...
Investigation of the accuracy of Grover's method when solving for the mutual inductance of two single-layer coaxial coils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
code software and the direct calculations of elliptical integrals. Also by fixing various dimensional parameters while varying others, practical interest geometries such as equal radii, equal lengths, different radii, different lengths, and different...
Teacher conceptions of authentic science : exploring teachers' practical and formal epistemologies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Reform documents such as A Framework for K-12 Science Education and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) have placed an emphasis on students' understanding and ability to engage in scientific practices. Even with an understanding...
Human resource management practices and organizational commitment and intention to leave: the mediating role of perceived organizational support and psychological contracts
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The purpose of this research was to examine the influence of HRM practices as a critical tool to make the employees more committed to their organization which in turn would affect employee intention to stay or leave the organization. The objective...
Influences of anxiety on golf performance: a field test of catastrophe theory
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
competitive rounds for each of the participants. Multiple regression procedures were utilized to analyze the data. In the linear analyses of all participants, it can be observed that Wor has a significant negative effect on golf performance. No evidence...
Field performance of instrumentation for monitoring effects of timber harvesting on water quality
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Water samples from ephemeral streams and associated hillsides are being collected to quantitatively determine the impact of Regenerative Oak Clear Cutting (ROCC) on water quality and sediment and nutrient transport in ...
The kinetics of non-catalyzed supercritical water reforming of ethanol
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
feed rate was varied between 6.4 g/min and 19.7 g/min, the ethanol feed rate was varied between 0.17 g/min and 2.2 g/min, and the pressure was fixed at 24.2 MPa. All ethanol fed was converted into gaseous products: hydrogen, carbon dioxide, methane...
Implementation of a low-cost, web-based, multi-component training for trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
knowledge, use, and fidelity in TF-CBT. A multiple regression showed that previous TF-BT training, clinician attitudes towards evidence-based practices, and clinician age predicted training completion. Implications for web-based trainings and implementation...
An evaluation of pre- and post-timber harvest water quality in low-order streams in the Missouri Ozarks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
into account. However, the probability of exceedance (PoE) were less than 15 percent. Total Suspended Solids (TSS) showed a 4% PoE which was deemed low in a natural system, whereas the maximum PoE, found for TVSS, was about 13%. Overall, the impact of timber...
The psychology of the Negro
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1916)
Text from introduction: Though the term "race psychology" has been in use, for some years, the amount of scientific evidence of the existence of racial differences in mentality is very small. In America, where so many races meet and contribute...
Quality of tier 1 instruction in an integrated multi-tiered system of support: a mixed methods study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
MTSS, should be evidence-based and differentiated to provide high quality educational opportunities to all students. One established approach to providing accessible and differentiated instruction is Universal Design for Learning (UDL), an instructional...
Sensory processing sensitivity among college adults : evidence of validity and ties to psychological functioning
