In this thesis, we explore the relationship between graphical representations of the 1-dimensional N-extended supersymmetry algebra called Adinkras, compact Riemann surfaces, and quivers. An Adinkra is a graph which was originated in physics to study off-shell representations of the supersymmetry...

A great majority of children in Canada and the United States from Grades 2-6 fail to solve equivalence problems (e.g., 2 + 4 + 5 = 3 + __) despite having the requisite addition and subtraction skills. The goal of the present study was to determine the relative influence of two variables,...

NPAS3 encodes a transcription factor of the bHLH-PAS family, which has been robustly associated with neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders with intellectual disability as a common feature. NPAS3 was initially discovered as a schizophrenia-associated gene in a family with a translocation...

Integrating Characteristics of Executive Functions in Non-Demented Aging: Structure, Trajectories, Classification, and Biomarker Predictors
DownloadSpring 2019
In aging, executive function (EF) performance (level) and change (trajectory) are linked to multiple interacting risk factors. Structurally, EFs have previously been represented as either a unitary (e.g., unidimensional) or diverse (e.g., multidimensional) set of abilities that change across the...

Lesson Study: Mathematics teachers become the professionals in their professional development
DownloadFall 2009
This research begins with an argument for the implementation of a professional development model that would empower mathematics teachers to make changes to their mathematical teaching practices. As this argument evolves so does the need for further investigation into what key components are...

Mathematics Intervention for Children with Prenatal Alcohol Exposure and Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder
DownloadFall 2013
Individuals with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) experience deficits in behavior, cognition, and academic functioning resulting from prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE). Although receiving intervention for developmental disabilities is a strong protective factor against negative outcomes in...
