Tooth length measurement accuracy and reliability with cone-beam CT and panoramic radiography
DownloadSpring 2010
This study assessed the accuracy and reliability of tooth length measurements through axial, coronal and sagittal serial slices of CBCT volumes; conventional panoramic radiographs; and CBCT panoramic reconstructions to that of a digital caliper gold standard. Samples consisted of maxillary...

The centrifugal particle mass analyzer (CPMA)-electrometer system has been proposed as an alternative method of calibration for devices that measure black carbon. This system is proposed to replace the current calibration standard of NIOSH 5040. The repeatability and intermediate precision of the...

Improving Measurements of the Mixing State and Mass Concentration of Particulate Emissions from Aircraft Engines
DownloadSpring 2016
This research is focused towards improving techniques used to measure particulate emissions from aircraft engines, on two fronts: first, to characterize and quantify the mixing state of particulate emissions; and second, to calibrate black carbon mass instruments with a traceable mass...

Adolescent Emotion Regulation Questionnaire: Development and Validation of a Measure of Emotion Regulation for Adolescents
DownloadFall 2011
The development of the Adolescent Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (AERQ) involved the creation of instrument items that were designed to measure emotion regulation strategies in cognitive, behavioral, physiological, and social response domains; intensity or duration emotional features; and...

Characteristics Associated with Increased Pain and Low Functional Recovery Three- Five Years Following Total Knee Arthroplasty
DownloadFall 2012
The incidence of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in Canada is steadily escalating; however, some recipients do not experience optimal outcomes. The objective of this study was to identify patient demographics associated with inferior pain and functional outcomes at 3-5years post-TKA. A secondary...
