Further, I would like to thank my fellow lab members for their suggestions regarding the formulation of this project and for assistance with data collection. Finally, I would like to thank my family for their support. My husband, Darrell, has been encouraging throughout this process, as have my father, David Wilburn, and my grandparents, Jack and Doris Wilburn. Their faith in me has truly been invaluable, and I will always be thankful for their patience and love.
