Abstract/Description
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the radicalization of leftist youth in Iran. The study took place from September 1979 and continued through January 20, 1980. A survey of 400 Iranian youth was conducted in the Iranian province of Khuzastan. The sample was stratified to include an equal proportion of rural and urban youth, as well as equal proportions of males, students and non-students.

Show moreThe purpose of the present study was to investigate the radicalization of leftist youth in Iran. The study took place from September 1979 and continued through January 20, 1980. A survey of 400 Iranian youth was conducted in the Iranian province of Khuzastan. The sample was stratified to include an equal proportion of rural and urban youth, as well as equal proportions of males, students and non-students. The urban sample was drawn from Abadan, the major city of the Khuzastan region. The rural sample was drawn from Eizeh., Students used in the study were in the twelfth grade in high school. Their ages were 17 and over. Data collection was accomplished using face to face interviews which contained information on 170 variables. The data collected suggested that, based upon one operationalization of leftist tendencies, approximately 21 percent of the sample could be classified as hard core leftists. Among the respondents manifesting leftist tendencies, 85.7 percent were from the Abadan area. This indicated that the base of Iranian leftism continues to be in the urban areas., The hypothesis that leftism would be stronger among students than among non-students was overwhelmingly sustained with 82 percent of the leftists surveyed being students. The picture was even more stark in the rural areas, with all but a few of the rural leftists being drawn from the ranks of the students., The hypothesis that leftists would be more prominent among males than females was confirmed only among the rural portion of the sample. Among the total sample of leftists youth, 52.4 percent were males and 47.6 percent were females, indicating a relative balance between the two groups., The study found that 60 percent of the leftist respondents were drawn from middle class backgrounds. The trend was particularly prominent in the urban areas with a full 70 percent of the leftist students being drawn from the middle income groups., This study rejected the hypothesis that leftist youth would be drawn more heavily from minority backgrounds than from Farsi backgrounds., Three agents of political socialization--family, mass media, and peer pressure--were examined in this study. We found that peer pressure was the most important agent in transferring leftist values to youth. Two additional hypotheses were formulated: (1) there is a link between political position of leftist organizations and groups and the attitudes of leftist students, and (2) leftist students are more inclined to become politically involved than other students. These hypotheses were accepted by this study.

Show moreThe present study was designed to achieve three goals: (1) to investigate some physical properties of the crude antimicrobial substance (lactobulgarican) produced by Lactobacillus bulgaricus, (2) to test the effect of several types of sugar present in the growth medium of L. bulgaricus on production of lactobulgarican, and (3) to purify and characterize the pure lactobulgarican., Lactobulgarican was located extracellularly and was more active toward gram-negative than -positive organisms. It had an optimum pH of 4.0. It was reversibly inactivated at pH range of 5.0-12.0 but irreversibly inactivated at pH 1.0. At the optimum pH, lactobulgarican was highly thermostable. It was also stable to refrigerated storage up to 18 days., Carbohydrate-free formula, with a given type of sugar added, was used to test the effect of sugar on lactobulgarican production. Among the sugars tested, glucose produced the lowest pH value and the largest inhibition zone under a short incubation period, i.e., 48-hours. Under a long incubation period, i.e., 96-hours, both glucose and lactose, at the same concentration, produced comparable results. A ninety-six hour incubation period was the best one among those tested. Fructose and sucrose were not fermented by L. bulgaricus, and did not produce any inhibition zones., Reversed phase HPLC column was used to purify lactobulgarican. Lactobulgarican did not contain lactic acid or hydrogen peroxide. The UV spectrum of lactobulgarican produced two broad peaks at 198 and 274 nm. Negative and positive chemical ionization mass spectra produced peaks at m/e 181, 180, 163 and 179, 91, 88, 57, respectively. The biuret test for lactobulgarican was negative. Results from the UV and mass spectra indicated the possible presence of a hexose and a phenol-containing compound, possibly phenylalanine. The molecular weight of lactobulgarican was (LESSTHEQ) 507.

Show moreConsider a Markov chain x(t), t = 0, 1, 2, ..., with a finite state space, N = {1, 2, ..., n}, transition probability matrix P = (p(,ij)) i, j (epsilon) N, and an initial probability vector V = (v(,i)) i (epsilon) N. For m (LESSTHEQ) n let A = {A(,1), A(,2), ..., A(,m)} be a partition on the set N. Define the process, (DIAGRAM, TABLE OR GRAPHIC OMITTED...PLEASE SEE DAI), The new process y(t), called a function of Markov chain, need not be Markov. If y(t) is again Markov, whatever the initial probability vector of x(t), x(t) is said to be lumped to y(t) with respect to the partition A. If y(t) is again Markov for only certain initial probability vectors of x(t), x(t) is said to be weakly lumped to y(t) with respect to the partition A., Conditions under which x(t) can be lumped or weakly lumped to y(t) with respect to A, are introduced. Relationships between the two processes x(t) and y(t) and the properties of the new process y(t) are discussed., Criteria are developed to determine whether a given Markov chain can be weakly lumped with respect to a given partition in terms of an analysis of systems of linear equations. Necessary and sufficient conditions on the transition probability matrix of a Markov chain, a partition, A, on N and a subset S of probability vectors for weak lumpability to occur are given in terms of the solution classes to these systems of linear equations. Finally, given that weak lumping occurs, the class S of all initial probability vectors which allow weak lumping is determined as is the transition probability matrix of the lumped process, y(t)., Lumpability and weak lumpability are also studied for Markov chains which are not irreducible. This involves a study of the interplay between two partitions of the state space N, the partition C, induced by the closed sets of states of the Markov chain and the partition A, with respect to which lumpability is to be considered. Under the assumptions that lumpability occurs the relationships which must exist between sets of the two partitions A and C are obtained in detail. It is found, for example that if neither partition is a refinement of the other and (A,C) form an irreducible pair of partitions over N then for each A (epsilon) A and C (epsilon) C, A (INTERSECT) C (NOT=) (phi). Further conditions which the transition probability matrix P must satisfy if lumpability is to hold are obtained as are relationships which must exist between P and P*., Suppose a process y(t) is known to arise as a result of a weak lumping or lumping from some unknown Markov chain x(t). Let (chi)(t) be the class of all Markov chains x(t) with n states which yield this weak lumping or lumping. The problem of characterizing this class and a class S of initial probability vectors which allow this lumping is considered. A complete solution is given when n = 3 and m = 2., The importance of lumpability in application is discussed.

Show moreThis study examined the attitudes of senior civil service administrators in the Sudan toward change. From a sample of 400, 205 administrators responded to the questionnaire constructed to collect data for the study., Respondents' attitudes were tested toward change, friction, communications, responsibility and emigration. The data were analyzed to determine the association between the administrators' attitudes toward the dependent variables (above) and the independent variables of social status, education, work organization and family influence., The analysis revealed that there is friction between the general public and the civil servants. The public's high expectations put pressure on the civil service. Communications within and among government organizations are difficult due to organizational problems and employee attitudes. Subordinates are reluctant to take responsibility, are afraid to make mistakes, and want to be left alone. The senior administrators themselves are insecure and prefer to work by themselves. Many government employees emigrate to oil producing countries, mainly for economic reasons. The senior administrators themselves are willing to emigrate for a good opportunity, and encourage their children to emigrate in the future., Analysis showed that senior administrators are conservative toward change irrespective of social status, education, family influence and work organization. There is no significant association between attitudes toward friction, communications, responsibility and emigration when treated with social status, education and work organization. Family influence is the most important independent variable. Sudan is a tribal society and family influence has a major effect on the attitudes of the individual in the society. The association between family influence and attitudes toward friction, communications and responsibility is significant. Attitudes toward emigration have a relatively significant association with family influence; but there is no significant association between attitudes toward change and family influence., The study results show that the senior administrators are conservative in their attitudes toward change. They are also dissatisfied and lack commitment to their work. In order to pursue social and economic development Sudan must develop its administrative system, its only tool of development administration and management.

Twenty-six female and 26 male adolescents, aged 180-204 months, used a pursuit rotor to practice fine motor skills and a stabilometer for gross motor skills. Each subject, whether on a massed or distributed practice schedule, had 15 trials on the first day and 5 trials on the following day. Subjects who followed a distributed practice schedule had 30 second trials with 30 seconds rest between each; subjects who followed the massed practice schedule had 30 second trials with 5 seconds rest between each. The mean of the 20 trails was computed., Six hypotheses were tested by ANOVA at the .05 level of significance. The results showed that males using distributed practice on a fine motor task performed better than females; and males using massed practice performed better on a fine motor task than females. Also, it was found that: (a) there were no significant differences between massed and distributed practice when learning gross and fine motor tasks; (b) there was no significant difference between the mean scores of the males and females using massed and distributed practice working on gross motor and there was no significant difference between the mean scores of males and females when learning gross motor tasks under massed conditions.

Show moreMany authorities have recommended that estimation be a regular part of the elementary and secondary curriculum. Prior research has indicated that elementary school students can learn to estimate sums, differences, and products of whole numbers, but no research has been carried out for estimation of quotients., This study investigated whether seventh graders can learn to estimate decimal quotients mentally, which of two quotient-estimation techniques might be more suitable, and what effect having learned to estimate might have upon calculation errors., This research used two seventh-grade classes in one school as the population sample. Through computer selection, this school randomly selected its students so that they represented the entire Tallahassee, Florida community in race, sex, and ability. Each class was randomly divided into three equal groups: the first was randomly assigned to a quotient-estimation technique based directly upon a previously learned place-value long division strategy; the second to a more universally applicable technique; the third to a control (no-estimation) group., Following instruction in the long-division strategy, a decimal-division achievement pretest (O(,1)) was administered to all students a week before the estimation instruction. While both experimental groups were taught the estimation instruction within 3 days, the control group was given a fraction review not related to decimal division. An estimation achievement test (O(,2)) was administered to all groups on the day following the instruction, with each question shown with overhead projection for fifteen seconds. A decimal-division achievement posttest (O(,3)) took place the day following the estimation test., Analysis of covariance was used to test whether there were any differences among the three groups on the estimation test. Scores on test O(,1) served as the covariate. A null hypothesis of no difference was rejected at the 0.05 level. Using the Newman-Keuls range test it was found that the first quotient-estimation technique was more effective than either the second quotient-estimation technique or the control. Gain scores from O(,1) to O(,3) were used to determine whether being a successful decimal-quotient estimator could have any effect upon student ability to compute; no significant effect was found.

Current theory on the stress associated with family life events suggests that such events are intrinsically stressful, and that their impact on levels of psychosocial functioning can best be determined through use of a self-report scale, the Family Inventory of Life Events (FILE), reflecting (a) the raw total of events occurring, or (b) the sum of standardized weights obtained from a representative group sample.

Show moreCurrent theory on the stress associated with family life events suggests that such events are intrinsically stressful, and that their impact on levels of psychosocial functioning can best be determined through use of a self-report scale, the Family Inventory of Life Events (FILE), reflecting (a) the raw total of events occurring, or (b) the sum of standardized weights obtained from a representative group sample. Using FILE as a model, a survey was conducted to determine whether capturing individual perceptions of the stressfulness of family life events through idiographic assessment would increase the proportion of the variance explained in psychosocial outcomes. Psychosocial functioning was assessed with the current health subscale of the Health Perceptions Questionnaire, the Generalized Contentment Scale (measuring non-psychotic depression), and the Index of Family Relations. The Index of Clinical Stress was introduced as an alternative self-report measure of stress not directly associated with family life events. A convenience sample of 265 subjects, including patients and family members of patients at a family practice residency clinic, completed the survey instrument. Findings demonstrated that idiographic scoring of FILE significantly improved the prediction of depression and family relations scores. Assessing subjects' perceived adequacy of available resources further increased the explanation of these dependent measures. Implications include a reassessment of the stress concept and its measurement, and an operationalization of the social work person-in-environment model.

Show moreThis study investigated the effectiveness of using minicalculators to teach the basic concepts of average at the fourth grade level. The two purposes of this study were: to investigate the possibility that using minicalculators in connection with a unit on averages (arithmetic mean) will facilitate students' acquisition of an understanding of the average of a set of numbers and their abilities to use this knowledge in new situations., To conduct the study, the researcher used two intact fourth grade classes in one elementary school as the population sample. These classes were assigned randomly to either a calculator group or non-calculator group. A computational pretest (covering the four basic arithmetic operations) was administered to both groups a week before the instruction began. Data from this pretest were used to determine if there was any bias with regards to the mathematical abilities of the two groups. Each group received seven days of instruction by a graduate student in mathematics education. Students in the calculator group solved the problems using a minicalculator. Students in the non-calculator group solved the problems using written computational procedures (paper and pencil). A posttest and a transfer test on averages were administered to each group on the two days following the instructional period. These tests were also given as retention tests after a period of one month., Mann-Whitney U Test analysis showed significant differences (at .05 level of significance) favoring the calculator group over the non-calculator group on a test of the basic concepts in average (posttest). No significant differences between both groups were observed on the retention posttest, the transfer test and the retention transfer test. As a further investigation of the results of this study, the researcher analyzed the errors made by the students in both groups on the posttest, transfer test and the retention tests., The conclusions of this study were: (1) The minicalculator was an advantage in avoiding computational errors on all the tests administered to students in the calculator group. (2) The use of minicalculators does not help students in retaining the process required to solve two-step average problems and in applying this knowledge in new situations. (3) The written computational procedures (paper and pencil) seemed to be an advantage in retaining the process required to solve the average problems and in retaining how to apply this knowledge in new situations.

Show moreThis study was designed to investigate the growth of Streptomyces griseus and Streptomyces odorifer, their production of and the distribution of musty odor compounds in white potato and cornmeal bread. Total plate count and actinomycetes /cm('2) where determined before and after storage for 3 or 5 days at 30 (+OR-) 3(DEGREES)C. A sensory panel was trained to identify musty odor. Musty odor compounds were extracted with organic solvents prior to analysis by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry., There was a significant difference (p < 0.01) in total plate count before and after storage of both the treated and untreated potato and bread samples. However, there was no significant difference in total plate count of the samples treated with S. griseus compared with those treated with S. odorifer. Inner layers exhibited significantly lower growth when examined for total plate count and actinomycetes in all samples. Actinomycetes represented only 11-14% of the total plate count after storage., Retention times for geosmin and 2-methyl-isoborneol were determined by analyzing the gas chromatography and mass spectrometry data. No increase in peak height of geosmin or 2-methyl-isoborneol resulted when the food sample was added to standards. Further analysis of the mass spectra showed geosmin and 2-methyl-isoborneol peaks to be absent from the food sample. These results were the same for both strains in potatoes and bread. It was concluded that the actinomycetes in this study did not produce geosmin or 2-methyl-isoborneol in detectable quantities., Foods treated with S. griseus or S. odorifer received significantly higher scores (p < 0.05) for musty odor than control samples; however, there was no significant difference in scores between S. griseus and S. odorifer. There was no significant difference in odor between inner layers of treated and control samples of bread or potatoes. The offensive odor that developed on outer layers was believed to be a mixture of musty and other offensive compounds produced by spoilage aerobes.

Show moreThe study reviewed the importance of English language in Nigeria. As the country's official language, the language of formal education, of politics, of commerce, and of inter-ethnic and international communication, English has become a language required for full participation in Nigerian affairs. This is the reason for the investigator's concern about students' poor performance in English every year on the West African School Certificate Examination (WASCE)., Several possible causes were examined, but the paucity of qualified teachers of English and absence of good English language textbooks were considered to be the most threatening. Since teacher training normally requires a long time to accomplish, it was resolved that textbooks should provide the immediate remedy by presenting instructional materials in such quantity and of such quality as will ensure students' general competence in English language and success in the WASCE., Consequently, there were two parts to the study. The first part examined the types and amount of composition tasks set in each of the three coursebooks which subdivide into fifteen textbooks. The composition tasks in the fifteen textbooks and WASCE English composition papers from 1969-1979 were compiled by the investigator and handed out to a panel of three independent raters. The raters categorized each composition task according to the working definitions provided by the investigator. Frequency counts were later computed and expressed as percentages for the purpose of comparison., It was found that students were more frequently expected to write in the transactional-report category than in any of the six other categories used in the study. The textbooks' failure to include a fair proportion of composition tasks for each category was regarded as a fault since composition tasks were set in all the categories in the WASCE at one time or another., The second part of the study assessed the quality of instruction in each coursebook and the accompanying Teachers' Notes. Two of the three coursebooks were found to be average while the third was rated inferior. It was concluded that a coursebook would be satisfactory in the Nigerian situation examined in the study only if it provided superior quality instruction.

Show moreStructural studies on the serologically-defined rabbit VHa('+) (a1, a2, and a3) and VHa('-) (y33,30 and y33,-) immunoglobulins have been performed in order to establish that these genetic markers reflect the presence of different primary gene products. In addition, biochemical studies were carried out on induced non-a2 anti-a1-reactive molecule in order to determine whether these molecules represent latent allotypes or are an internal image idiotype., Initially, allotype-defined heavy chains were prepared from the affinity-purified IgG molecules. These were then subjected to tryptic digestion and were analyzed by HPLC. Approximately 38-40 distinct peptides were resolved from each heavy chain, of which about 30 peptides were derived from Fc fragment (CH2 and CH3) and 8-10 peptides were derived from Fd region (VH1 and CH1). Seven Fd peptides were shared by all VHa('+) and VHa('-) heavy chains. Each of the a1 and the a2 digests had one allotype-specific peptide (in addition to the common peptides), whereas no allotype-specific peptides were observed for a3 heavy chain. No differences were detected between y33,30 and y33,- peptides, however, both expressed a common y-specific peptide., Comparison of the nominal a1 digest with non-a2 anti-al-reactive heavy chain digest revealed that non-a2 anti-a1-reactive molecule expressed an a1-specific peptide. This observation, together with previous immunoelectron microscopic data, suggests that non-a2 anti-a1-reactive molecule are possibly latent a1 allotype., Amino acid analyses of the isolated a1 and y-specific peptides indicate that the y-specific peptide is very similar to the first 19 N-terminal amino acid residues of the previously reported pooled VHa('-) molecule (e.g., the two peptides matched at 16 residues out of 19 residues). The a1-specific peptide was very similar (except one extra amino acid) to the N-terminal 10 amino acid residues of the VHa1 molecule. These data indicate that both a1 and y-specific peptides are located in the first VH framework region.

Show moreThis study challenges the perception of community colleges as the "workingman's college". Through the process Zwerling describes as diversion it is assumed that upper class students will either elect or be forced to enter the higher educational system at the two-year college level. As a result, two-year colleges will become more heterogeneous in character., This study hypothesizes that two-year colleges, are stratified by race, gender, and socio-economic status; that within two-year college types there is student diversity; and that using a modified status attainment model, expectation model, differences in educational and occupational expectations vary by race, gender, region, and socio-economic status., Utilizing an American Council of Education national sample of 22,510 first-time full-time two-year college students analyses are accomplished employing a combination of nonparametric chi-square test of significance and multiple regression techniques., The findings of this study reveals that through the process of "diversion" institutional stratification as well as diversity exist within two-year college types. This study also finds that the diversion process when applied to a modified status attainment model (educational and occupational exception models) results in educational expectation models that are more applicable to more student subpopulations than occupational expectation models; that socio-economic status in the expectation models does not take on the importance it does in the status models; and that in the expectation models students are seeking to actualize certain educational expectations independent of occupational expectations or social class., The results of this study raise many questions concerning the popular perceptions of two-year college students. Specifically the question is raised whether class based models of educational and occupational attainment are viable in a pluralistic society.

Show moreA multi-level, quasi-geostrophic model was designed to study the tropics and middle latitude general circulation for the northern hemisphere winter. A coarse mesh (5(DEGREES) x 5(DEGREES)) domain covering global belt from 30(DEGREES)S to 70(DEGREES)N with three beta-planes was used. A time-independent heating, used in this study, is composed of latent heating in low latitudes and a heating derived from the mean winter motion field for middle and high latitudes. The effect of planetary scale smoothed topography was included as a lower boundary., The initial field was derived from the mean January, 1978 data obtained from the National Meteorological Center (NMC). Simulation with real data initial state showed reasonable agreement with mean January flow field in terms of planetary scale features. Several other sensitivity experiments were carried out with zonal flow for the initial state. The main objective of designing these experiments was to assess the separate effects of topography and differential heating on global and regional scales., Results of these experiments were evaluated within the framework of quasi-geostrophic energetics. The importance of terrain and differential heating in defining and maintaining the subtropical jet stream is demonstrated.

Show moreThe purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two 10-week training programs on self-concept and student attitude toward physical activity of Jordanian college physical education majors. Subjects were 72 male and female physical education majors, aged 18 to 21 years old, who participated in a course entitled "Physical Fitness" offered during the spring semester (1986)., The subjects were randomly assigned to either a weight training program group or an aerobic training group. The total number in both groups was equal (n = 36) and contained an equal number of male and female subjects. Each group participated twice a week for 50 minutes in either a weight training group or an aerobic training group for a period of 10 weeks., The two groups were pre- and post-tested on the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS), the AAHPERD Youth Fitness Test, and the Kenyon Attitude Toward Physical Activity Inventory., For the purpose of this study, the following hypotheses were tested with alpha set at .05 level for hypotheses 1 and 2 and .003 for hypotheses 3 and 4. (1) There will be no difference in total positive self-concept scores from pre-test to post-test within either group. (2) There will be no difference in the total attitude toward physical activity scores from pre-test to post-test within either group of subjects. (3) There will be no correlation between the physical fitness gain scores and the total positive self-concept gain score within either group. (4) There will be no correlation between the physical fitness gain scores and the total attitude toward physical activity gain score within either group of subjects., The student t test for two related samples was used to test hypotheses 1 and 2. The Spearman Correlation Coefficients were used to test hypotheses 3 and 4. The results for hypotheses 1 and 2 showed that scores for the subjects within both groups were significantly increased from pre- to post-test in their total self-concept and total attitude toward physical activity. The results for hypotheses 3 and 4 showed that there were no correlations between physical fitness gain scores and total positive self-concept gain score, and total attitude toward physical activity gain score within either group.

Show moreThe purpose of this study was to investigate high school chemistry student attitudes toward science and their perceptions of and preferences for learning chemistry in three different science learning environments., The subjects of this study were 48 students enrolled in two sections of general chemistry at the Developmental Research School of Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida., Data were collected from January through April, 1985. A modified version of the Science Curriculum System (SCAS) was used to code classroom behavior. After experiencing each environment, interview protocols derived from SCAS were used to obtain student perceptions of chemistry, learning chemistry, classroom behavior, and student preferences for these environments. Finally, the Scientific Attitude Inventory was used to obtain student attitudes toward science after experiencing the three different science learning environments., Repeated measures design analyses were used to investigate student perceptions of and preferences for learning chemistry and their attitudes toward science. The chi-square analyses were used to investigate the accuracy of student perceptions of classroom behavior and observed behavior. Finally, correlation analyses were used to investigate the relationship between student attitudes toward science and their grade point average in science courses., The results indicated the following: (1) Student perceptions of chemistry and learning chemistry showed significant difference among the three different science learning environments. (2) A significant difference existed between student perceptions of classroom behavior and observed classroom behavior. (3) No significant difference existed between student attitudes toward science and their grade point average in science courses. (4) No significant difference existed in student preferences for three different science learning environments. (5) No significant difference existed in student attitudes toward science as a result of experiencing the three different science learning environments., Perhaps more research studies in science learning environments yield valuable results from examining effects of these environments on student perceptions, attitudes, preferences, and achievement.

A secondary purpose was to explore the potential moderating effects of Type A personality on job characteristics/job tension relationships., Method. The subjects were 161 female state workers, aged 35 to 55, employed by a large state agency in Florida. A Women's Work Questionnaire (WWQ), consisting of (a) Sales Type A Personality Index (STAPI short form) to determine Type A behavior; (b) Job Characteristics Inventory (JCI) to determine perceived job characteristics of: variety, autonomy, feedback, significance, identity, challenge, dealing with others, and friendship opportunities; (c) Job-Related Tension Index (JRTI) to determine perceived job tension; and (d) several items to describe demographic and other work-related factors, was used to collect the data., Results. Findings of multiple and hierarchical regression analyses, discussed in relation to previous research and theory were: (1) A significant linear relationship existed between job tension, and a linear combination of Type A personality and all eight job characteristics measured by the JCI. (2) A significant linear relationship existed between job tension and the following variables, singularly: Type A personality, job characteristics of autonomy, feedback, significance, and friendship opportunities. (3) No significant linear relationships were found between job tension and the following variables, singularly: perceived job characteristics of variety, challenge, identity, dealing with others. (4) No significant moderating effects of Type A personality on job characteristic/job tension relationships were found. (5) Descriptive data from subgroup analyses performed by trichotomizing the total sample of women according to the distribution of their Type A raw scores, suggested that negative relationships existed between job tension and the job characteristics of autonomy, feedback, significance, and friendship opportunities for Type B subgroups only. Based upon the findings of this study, suggestions for future research and implications for prevention of job stress were explicated.

Show moreThe purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the role of female education in changing fertility behavior by studying some of the demographic and socioeconomic factors through which these changes are likely to take place in the context of Indonesian society. The Indonesian Fertility Survey of 1976 is analyzed to achieve this purpose. The method of analysis utilizes path analytic techniques and includes cohort comparisons. The results show that the total effect of post-primary education on fertility is negative, although not always substantively significant. The complex of indirect and direct effects of postprimary education of fertility change over time and space is in a direction consistent with the effects that modernizations brings. Age at first marriage is shown to be the most important intermediate variable through which education and occupation before marriage exert their influences on fertility, in this study defined as cumulative fertility or number of children ever born. Occupation before marriage which is accomplished with or without the effect of postprimary education. The total effect of education on cumulative fertility is negative in the three youngest urban cohorts and the oldest rural cohort, but substantively negligible in the three youngest rural cohorts and the oldest urban cohort. This total effect partialed out in the direct and indirect effects shows that, education affects cumulative fertility only indirectly in the three youngest urban cohorts, not at all in the 45 and over urban cohort and the three youngest rural cohorts, and directly in the 45 and over rural cohort., Because the three youngest cohorts, i.e., the most modernized of the eight cohorts, are more indicative of future, it can thus be expected in the years ahead, that marriage patterns will importantly influence cumulative fertility. Education's effect on cumulative fertility also will be significant, although of secondary importance., It would be interesting to see whether the same mode of analysis applied to other countries produces similar results.

Show moreThe orchid-male euglossine bee interaction is mutualistic. The bees pollinate the orchids which provide floral fragrance rewards. I sought evidence for an unambiguous, obligatory, coevolved interaction on the basis of their seasonal and geographic relationships., Male euglossine bee activity and orchid flowering phenology were monitored for over a year on Barro Colorado Island (BCI) and two other lowland sites in central Panama. Weekly censuses at chemical fragrance baits revealed seasonal changes in bee species richness and abundance; however, other community attributes were relatively constant. Peak activity was from February through June. Variation between the lowland sites was minor. The seasonal patterns were probably the result of local eclosion events., The flowering phenologies of orchid fragrance hosts were season-dependent. The overall blooming patterns were similar to changes in bee abundance and species richness., Orchids tapped the majority of euglossine species and individuals for pollinator services each season. Most of those bee species that temporarily lacked orchid fragrance hosts in bloom persisted in the area, continually eclosed from nests, and sought floral fragrance compounds. General geographic distributions of all orchid-pollinator pairs were not mutually inclusive. Nearly a third of the bee species were not pollinators of any local orchid fragrance host. Alternative fragrance sources existed. Thus, bee activity could be independent of orchid fragrance supplies., There was no evidence for an obligatory, coevolved mutualism. The orchids probably exploited a preexisting behavioral phenomenon of their euglossine pollinators, and have had no obvious effect on their evolution.

Tambien se incluyen algunos topicos paganos y cristianos que comprenden las supersticiones y la religion catolica practicada por el Consejero y los campesinos que lo siguen por los sertones, asi como las descripciones de algunos ritos y ceremonias que recuerdan las practicas antiguas del cristianismo y de la Edad Media., Para apoyar el tono epicista existente en La guerra del fin del mundo, se comparan, a lo largo de este estudio, con La Iliada y La Odisea de Homero, y La Eneida de Virgilio presentando diversos ejemplos de estas obras., Finalmente se delinea un tema resaltante en esta novela de Vargas Llosa: el fanatismo en las figuras de tres de los personajes, quienes representan la religiosidad, el jacobismo, y el anarquismo. Estos tres aspectos del fanatismo estan simbolizados en algunas corrientes historicas, filosoficas, y politicas europeas, del cual se hacen algunos paralelos al respecto.

Show moreThe purpose of this study was to determine the effects of three types of review procedures: re-reading, recall exercise, and recall exercise plus re-reading, on the delayed retention of a meaningful prose text that had been read once., A sample of 909 fourth and fifth grade students from the Fairfax County Public School System, in the state of Virginia, participated in the study., A 1 x 4 posttest-only control group design was used. The prose text used in the study was a revised version of a section from a children's text entitled: Paws, Hoofs and Flippers, by Olive Earle (1954). The measurement instrument used was a short-answer essay test. The test was judged to have content validity, and the reliability was .70 according to the Spearman-Brown formula., The study was conducted in three sessions. In the first session of the study, all of the students read the same text. During the second session, students worked with individual booklets that contained different review procedures: (1) a re-reading of the text, or (2) a recall exercise based on the text, or (3) a combination of the recall exercise plus a re-reading, or (4) a placebo activity., During the third session, one week after the initial session, all of the students answered an identical cued-recall test., An analysis of covariance was used to test the null hypothesis of no difference among the treatment groups at an alpha of .05. The students' reading levels were used as a covariate. The results showed a significant difference among the treatment groups (p .05).

Show moreThe purpose of this study was to investigate the degree to which custodial and noncustodial stepmothers felt satisfied in their parental role as determined by examining two indicators of role satisfaction: confidence and contentment in parental role. The objectives were: to compare confidence and degree of contentment of custodial and noncustodial stepmothers and to explore the moderating or predictor variables that may have an effect on confidence and contentment of parental role of stepmothers as a group., A sample of 269 stepmothers was located and useable data were collected in September of 1981 from 146 stepmothers through a mailed-out and self-administered questionnaire. The data were analyzed using general linear models, correlations, and multiple regression analyses., No significant differences between custodial and noncustodial stepmothers on the dependent variables, confidence and contentment, were found. But it was interesting, albeit not significant, that one-third of custodial stepmothers reported a greater severity of parent-child relationship problems (or dissatisfaction in role) while only one-fourth of noncustodial stepmothers reported same., Secondly, sixteen predictor variables were examined: combined income, stepmother education, husband education, stepmother age, whether the stepmother had had a stepmother herself, length of time as a stepmother, whether the stepmother had a child of her own, whether the stepmother had a child in common with the husband, number of stepchildren, sex of stepchildren, marital happiness, custodial arrangement, stepmother's and husband's relationship with the ex-wife, and whether the ex-wife (biological mother) was still alive or not. A stepwise regression technique was employed to ascertain which grouping of the independent variables would best account for variance in the dependent variables: confidence and contentment. Neither of the seven-variable models developed accounted for more than 19% of the variance in the dependent variables., Additionally, one of the variables--having all female stepchildren--had a significant relationship with contentment. This indicates that having all female stepchildren was the best variable found to predict whether stepmothers would be content and satisfied in their stepmother role.

Show moreThe purpose of this study is to examine Samuel S. Hill, Jr.'s analysis of southern culture-religion as primarily presented in his 1966 book Southern Churches in Crisis to see if his assessment of southern religion is still applicable in the 1970's, or whether the religion of the South has undergone change as southern culture has changed. Hill espouses that "popular southern religion," meaning the evangelical, revivalistic, informal, testimonial, conservative religion found in the dominant denominations of the South (Presbyterian, Methodist, and Baptist), is a culture-religion of the historic South. Thus, southern religion has not changed significantly and in many ways has preserved the old southern culture. However, in recent years the South has undergone numerous changes in mass communication, industrialization, transportation, urbanization, and education. Thus, the question posed is this: as southern culture has experienced change, has the southern religion changed alongside the culture, or has the religion remained attached to the culture of the past?, The method selected of testing Hill's position concerning southern culture-religion was by examining and analyzing the ministries and beliefs of a major influential southern church representing one of the three dominant southern denominations. The church selected was the First Baptist Church, Dallas, Texas, which is a very large, influential church in the Southern Baptist Convention., In Hill's analysis he presented numerous elements evident in southern culture-religion; however, only four: evangelism, education, ethics, and race, were selected for this study since these four are more evident, thus providing more accessible data and information for study and comparison., In one chapter of this paper Hill's positions concerning evangelism, education, ethics, and race are presented. Hill basically states that evangelism is the major emphasis in southern religion, the educational level of southern churches is relatively low, the teaching of ethics is limited primarily to personal ethics, and with the absence a social ethic, the race issue is neglected. In two other chapters the First Baptist Church's beliefs and activities concerning these four elements are presented., In the concluding chapter a comparison between Hill's positions and First Baptist Church's positions is given. From this comparison the following conclusions are drawn. One, contemporary southern religion is not far removed from the religion of the turn of the century. Two, some changes have occurred in current southern religion. And three, the changes southern religion has experienced stem largely from the transitions that have come about in southern society over the years. Therefore, southern religion is not a static, nonchanging religion. However, southern religion is still a culture-religion, but of a more contemporary type. Also included in the last chapter are suggested topics for further research., Incorporated in this paper is an appendix which is a transcribed interview with Dr. Hill stating his views on southern religion in 1979.

Show moreThis investigation was concerned with the development of a conceptual design for Learning Resources Centers based on a study of selected centers in traditionally Black four-year state-supported colleges and universities, 1972-1977. It was an effort to determine to what extent Title III Advanced Institutional Development Program (AIDP) funding was used to effect modification of college and university libraries so that they become effective learning resources centers and to develop guidelines which would be useful in determining the effectiveness of Learning Resources Center development in traditionally Black four-year state-supported colleges and universities., To accomplish this purpose, data collection, analysis and synthesis, and evaluation were employed. Phase I, the data collection, consisted of two parts. Part 1: review and analysis of 22 Title III AIDP Refined Plans of traditionally Black four-year state-supported institutions in order to determine to what extent Title III AIDP funds were used to develop or strengthen learning resources centers as part of a library. Part 2: construction of the profiles of three Title III AIDP funded Learning Resources Center plans. Impacting factors identified in part one for the selected centers were grouped into categories under relevant components of the Title III AIDP "Format of Refined Plan.", Phase II consisted of the development of emerging guideline factors for learning resources center development in traditionally Black institutions. From these factors a draft of the emerging guidelines was developed in the form of an instrument for use by a jury of four experts in the library, media and educational technology professions. The instrument consisted of two parts: Part I was developed to obtain a rating on the following components: (1) Objectives of the design; (2) Characteristics of the learning resources center as related to educational technology; and (3) Evaluation. Part II requested a narrative assessment of the guidelines in terms of (1) total impact; (2) identification of weaknesses; and (3) how they might be corrected. Responses to the instrument were tabulated and reported in Phase III: Evaluation of the Emerging Guidelines., Findings and Results. Using the six categories identified in the learning resources definition for this study, six institutions were identified that used AIDP funds to strengthen or develop a learning resources center as part of a library. Thirty-three guidelines evolved from the jurors' evaluation of 40 suggested guidelines. The seven guidelines receiving negative responses without written comments are included in the recommendations for future research., Conclusion. The major conclusion from this study is that more research studies from librarians need to include the planned application of educational technology as part of an examination of learning resources center development in traditionally Black four-year institutions and other four year colleges and universities which have a high influx of students who require "developmental" courses and individualized attention.
