Fall 2022
The reason and functional relevance of why we sleep continues to perplex researchers. One fundamental reason behind why sleep remains a mystery is because it is challenging to study given how easily it is disrupted. Anesthesia has been suggested to be a model for studying sleep given the...

ABSTRACT Sleep-wake disturbances are a common problem for people with cancer. Prior research of sleep-wake disturbances in cancer patients has focused predominantly on patients with early-stage disease. Consequently, little is known about sleep-wake disturbances in patients with advanced cancer....

Spring 2018
Objective: The Post-Concussion Symptom Scale (PCSS) has been used to evaluate impaired sleep, despite not being validated for this purpose. The objective of this study was to examine the concurrent validity of the Post-Concussion Symptom Scale-Child (PCSS-C) sleep items/cluster with a validated...

Hippocampal activity is characterized by two state-dependent, mutually exclusive large-amplitude oscillations: theta (3-12 Hz) and the hippocampal slow oscillation (SO; ~1 Hz). These two rhythms have been implicated in different stages of memory processing. Theta occurs during awake exploratory...

Descriptions of sleep quality by current and bereaved caregivers of individuals with advanced cancer
DownloadFall 2017
End of life care for individuals with advanced cancer has moved from the clinical setting to the home setting. Family members thus have taken on the role of caregivers and must cope with the responsibilities and challenges of providing care. In order to support caregivers in this role, healthcare...

Development of Conversation Cards for Adolescents©: A patient-centered communication and behavior change tool for adolescents with obesity and health care providers
DownloadFall 2019
Background. Given adolescents’ increasing desire for independence and autonomy, there is a need for research to examine their lived experiences, including concerns, preferences, and priorities. In the context of lifestyle modification for weight management, most adolescents with obesity exhibit...

Spring 2019
The major question addressed by neuroscience is how behavior can be explained through knowledge of the brain. Given the unobservable nature of mind, cognitive neuroscientists depend on observations of the electrical activity of the brain gleaned through electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings to...

Effectiveness of Hand Self-Shiatsu for Post Sport-related Concussion Sleep Disturbance in Young Athletes
DownloadFall 2017
Background: Sport-related concussion (SRC) is a prevalent injury with significant health consequences. One important, but under-addressed area of health affected by SRC, is sleep. Not only can SRC cause sleep disturbance but, in turn, sleep disturbance affects recovery from SRC and increases the...

Oscillations are a fundamental principle of neural operation, organized into a hierarchy of frequency bands with the dominant rhythm alternating within and across behavioral states. During states of sleep and anesthesia, brain activity in forebrain regions displays two major distinct activity...

Examining Movement Behaviours in Preschool-Aged Children: Novel Measurement and Data Analysis Techniques
DownloadFall 2020
Movement behaviour patterns (e.g., more sleep, less sedentary behaviour, and more physical activity) in isolation have demonstrated benefits to preschool-aged children’s development. However, the integrated nature of movement behaviours is a relatively unexplored area. This scarcity of evidence...
