Newton, Maria | Predicting the use of sexual initiation tactics in a sample of college women | Significant attention has been focused on women's initiation of sexual contact with men and the point at which this initiation becomes sexual aggression. The purpose of this study was to examine possible predictors of the use of three conceptually distinct sets of sexual initiation tactics: seductio... | Sexual initiation tactics; Coercion; Force; Social learning theory | 2004 |

Hargroder, Jessica Lynn; Pham, Ann Xuan | Preventing falls in the elderly | Exercise programs have been found to reduce falls in the elderly. In a study published in 2009, only 8 weeks of exercise training 3 times/week (including calistinics, muscle power, body balance, and walking training ) decreased the incidence of falls in the elderly population by 12% (Iwamoto, et al... | Trapeze Interactive Poster | 2010-05-18 |

Martin, Jim | Time course of learning to produce maximum cycling power | The purpose of this investigation was to determine the time course and magnitude of learning effects associated with repeated maximum cycling power tests and to determine if cycle-trained men exhibit different learning effects than active men who are not cycle-trained. Cycle-trained (N = 13) and act... | Training; Pedaling; Cycle-trained | 2000 |

Martin, Jim | Torso stabilization reduces the metabolic cost of producing cycling power | Many researchers have used cycling exercise to evaluate muscle metabolism. Inherent in such studies is an assumption that changes in whole-body respiration are due solely to respiration at the working muscle. Some researchers, however, have speculated that the metabolic cost of torso stabilization... | Torso stabilization; Efficiency; Economy; Static contraction; Work | 2005 |

Martin, Jim; Pardyjak, Eric R. | Training with power measurement: a new era in cycling training | PROVIDING CYCLISTS WITH A reliable measure of exercise intensity presents unique challenges. Environmental factors such as wind speed, road grade and surface texture, and air density interactively influence the resistance encountered during cycling and thus alter the speed a cyclist can maintain wh... | Exercise; Intensity; Heart rate | 2003 |

Martin, Jim | Validation of a mathematical model for road cycling power | This investigation sought to determine if cycling power could be accurately modeled. A mathematical model of cycling power was derived, and values for each model parameter were determined. A bicycle-mounted power measurement system was validated by comparison with a laboratory ergometer. | Aerodynamic drag; Rolling resistance; Air velocity; Gradient; Cycling power; Potential energy; Kinetic energy | 1998 |
