Barriers Preventing Youth from Using Transportation in Peterborough
-
By Jacob Slater, Completed for: Peterborough Youth Commission; Supervising Professor: Cheryl McKenna-Newman & Roger Picton; Trent Community Research Centre, Barriers Preventing Youth From Using Transportation in Peterborough was a community based research project that was completed in the 2017-2018 academic year at Trent University,Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. The purpose of the project was to expand on information previously obtained by the Peterborough Youth Council (the host organization of the project), being that the youth demographic of Peterborough experience issues when accessing the local pubic transit system. Specifically, this project illustrated the expansion of this information and through research it was identified that the perception of transit accessibility vary significantly across socioeconomic cohorts. Through performing a literature reviews and conducting interviews, several attributes were identified as having influence over transit accessibility including: frequency, overall route and network coverage, as well as user’s proximity to transit stops. However it was noted that through research that different perspectives exists in regards to which attribute is considered the most important or most significant. Ultimately, these different perspectives present the suggestion that citizens from different life-stages and social statuses hold distinctive attitudes regarding transit accessibility. As result, several research tools were created with the intention of being used in further studies conducted by the Peterborough Youth Council that would be used to investigate the specific factors that lead to youth in Peterborough having issues and feelings of anxiety when accessing public transit. Furthermore, several strategies that could improve transit accessibility, by targeting specific attributes that were deemed as having significant influence over transit accessibility were suggested.

Seniors and trail use in Peterborough, Ontario
-
The primary reason for the research is to determine whether seniors are currently using the trails in Peterborough and to also identify what barriers are preventing seniors from using the trails. Once the barriers are identified the creation of possible business ventures and/or programs to aid in overcoming such barriers is the aim of this endeavor., Abstract -- Literature review and midterm report (revised) -- Examination of selected literature of interest -- Project information. Topic. Client -- Purpose of the project -- Key research questions -- Study area -- Information needs -- Methods of information collection -- Methods of analysis -- Summary of methods and findings -- Seniors residences -- Interview process -- Interpretation of results -- Conclusions and recommendations -- Acknowledgements -- Sources., By Lyndsey Simpson. --, Date of project submission: April 2002, Includes bibliographic references (p. 25)., GEOG 470: Research in Human Geography.

Admission Records Analysis For Size and Prior Injury, and Development of Streamlined Admissions Tool
-
By Nicole Simon, Date of Project Submission: April 2015., Completed for: Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre ; Supervising Professor: Sharon Beaucage-Johnson; Trent Community Research Centre, FRSC4890 - Community Based Research, The research conducted for the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre was completed with the
purpose of understanding the dangers that the turtle population of Ontario faces. Spatial analysis
was conducted on the 2016 intake records for the OTCC. This analysis was completed using
ArcGIS 10.1 which allowed the construction of a number of maps to be completed. A literature
review was conducted outlining the different methodologies used to assign turtles to age
categories. Within the literature review other wildlife Centres were contacted to obtain
information on how they perform age categorization. These methods were compared to the
OTCC and it was discovered that the best method would be to track turtles from hatchling, but
this is not always possible. Analysis of the intake records were then completed with the goal of
determining size by species and prior injury data. The size by species analysis yielded numerous
graphs depicting the average size by species as well as age, and sex. Unfortunately, there was not
enough data available to make usable inferences on prior injury data. This information would be
crucial for maintaining mitigation or even implementing it. A task of the project included
developing a digital intake tool to allow for more consistent record keeping. The completion of
the digital intake tool now includes a separate section for prior injury to allow for prior injury
analysis to be conducted.
