Exploring the participation pathways among high-performance varsity soccer players: is it as simple as specializing or sampling?
(2022-06-01)
Research on the sport participation patterns of youth athletes often contrasts two types of participation: early sport specialization (Ford & Williams, 2017) and sampling/ diversification (Coté et al., 2009). However, the ...
The effects of rapport building on information disclosure in virtual interviews
(University of Ontario Institute of Technology, 2022-06-01)
Rapport-building has been identified as an effective tool when interviewing victims and witnesses of events that may be sensitive in nature. The objective of this study was to examine the rapport-building process within a ...
Proportional-integral control in the evaluation of glucose homeostasis and Type 2 Diabetes
(University of Ontario Institute of Technology, 2022-06-01)
Mathematical modelling of blood sugar dynamics has been explored since the early 1960s. For most of these models, measurements of hormones such as insulin and glucagon are required to find parameter values that yield ...
Study of LaBr3 (Ce) detector response to high energy helium ions
(University of Ontario Institute of Technology, 2022-04-01)
The space radiation environment is a complex mixed field composed of neutral and charged particles such as photons, protons, alpha, and other particles. The mixture of these different particles creates a challenge in any ...
