(We give some further discussion of such items in an appendix to this article).
Like Musher-Eizenman & Holub [ 10], we also asked the parents to respond to items on three related attitude scales adapted from the CFQ [ 8]: The concern about child overweight scale (3 items), the concern about child underweight scale (3 items) and the responsibility for child eating scale (3 items) (see Appendix 1).
Appendix I, Item 2 tabulates genotypic data available at FHS.
Appendix II, Item 2, also tabulates genotyping and sequence data available at JHS.
Further details on the phenotypic data available are provided in the Appendix II, Item 1 and are summarized in Figure 3.
We abandoned the use of 18S Ribosomal RNA as housekeeper (see also Appendix A, item 6), since the primers and probe provided as part of an ABI RNA control reagents kit were of a faulty design (22).
Further details on the traits available are detailed in Appendix I, Item 1 and summarized in Figure 2. In the 1990s and early 2000s, DNA samples were collected in the Original, Offspring, Third Generation, and Offspring Spouse cohorts of the FHS to establish an invaluable resource for genetic research.
For the 4 vowel contrasts differing in one or two features (difference in 1 feature: between/u:/and/o:/as well as between/e/and/ø:/; in 2 features: between/ø:/and/u:/as well as between/e:/and/o:/, for an overview see Appendix) 12 item pairs as well as 12 control pairs (with identical vowels) were created.
We would like to acknowledge the FHS investigators and personnel who contributed to the data displayed in Appendix I, Items 1 and 2, and the JHS investigators and personnel who contributed to data displayed in Appendix II, Items 1 and 2. None.
We used McCroskey and McCroskey's (1988) self-perceived communication competence instrument (12-item questionnaire; Appendix 1D) to develop baseline efficacies of students communication, and report whether there were changes to their competence after participating in the simulation.
