The Effect of Pornography Consumption of Males' Propensity to Rape 

Stans, Megan (2007-08-15)
The legality of pornography and its effects on viewers has been a topic of debate for decades in the United States. The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship of pornography and its effects on sexual aggression ...

The Effect of Post-chill Antimicrobials on Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shelf-life and Quality Attributes of Ground Chicken 

Chen, Xi (2013-07-10)
Ground chicken is more likely to have higher microbiological loads than whole carcasses and parts. Therefore, it is necessary to identify antimicrobials that reduce pathogens and overall microbial loads without negatively ...

Effect of pre-pelleting whole corn inclusion on growth performance, processing yield, meat quality, gut microbiome, and digestive organ development at different grow-out phases of broilers. 

Ovi, Fozol (2020-11-16)
Corn is typically ground before its incorporation into broiler diets. However, grinding is the second most expensive cost center of feed manufacturing after pelleting. Therefore, feeding whole corn can be an alternative ...

The Effect of Price Risk on Mongolian Copper Exports 

Gao, Jiaxuan (2017-07-27)
Mongolia has copious mineral deposits. Copper ore is the major commodity of the mineral industry and is also Mongolia’s main export item. China is the largest destination for Mongolia’s copper exports. To analyze the price ...

Effect of Process Parameters on Methanol to Olefins Reactions over SAPO Catalysts 

Jean, Luckner (2005-08-15)
Acidic catalysts such as silicoaluminophosphate oxides (SAPO) have been known to play an essential role in olefins synthesis reactions. Because of their unique selectivity towards light olefins, these SAPO catalysts offer ...
