The Effects of Selected Color Phenomena in a Basic Presentation to College Students

Description: The problem of this study was to ascertain the effects of selected color phenomena upon the identification and comparison of color by college students. Instruments used for this study were the Snellen Visual Acuity Chart, which measures crudely the the binocular visual activity of an individual; Pseudo-Isochromatic Plates for Testing Color Perception, which roughly determine red-green color deficiency; and the "Isoline Color Phenomena Perception Presentation," which determines how an individual… more

Pathologies in Earthworms: Sublethal Biomarkers of Xenobiotic Toxicity

Description: This research is part of an overall program to develop and use a suite of acute and sublethal toxicity biomarkers, and testing protocols for use in assaying potential effects of complex mixtures of xenobiotics such as found in soils containing agricultural biocides and petrochemical wastes dredged sediments, and hazardous waste sites (HWS). The purpose of this study was to evaluate four biomarkers of sublethal pathology that could be used in an integrative model of multiple toxicity endpoints w… more

A Factor Analysis of Twelve Selected Isotonic Muscular Endurance Exercises on the Universal Gym

Description: This study investigated the assessment of muscular endurance using the Universal Gym. Subjects included 19 women and 151 men (18-30 years). Measures of muscular endurance were evaluated at various percentages of 1 RM on twelve exercise stations and it appears that a percentage of 1 RM ranging from .7 for the arms, .5 to .9 for the legs, and ,5 to .8 for the trunk is required to produce fatigue state in the necessary repetition range.
