A Parallel Group Experiment In Mental Hygiene With School Children, Ernest Herman Jackson Jr. Jan 1952

A Parallel Group Experiment In Mental Hygiene With School Children, Ernest Herman Jackson Jr.

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Mr. Bullis seemed to have a direct answer to the problem that was concerning the experimenter. However, after using his book for several years and in different grade levels: sixth, seventh and eighth, it became apparent that no such single remedy would change the behavior or personality of children in a basic sense. The lessons seemed to work best for the experiment with eighth grade pupils, but still he was not confident in this own mind that they were as effective as they might be; that is, to help boys and girls get along better with one another, to understand …

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

This investigation concerns the intelligence of the Negro population in relation to the white population. There is a considerable difference of opinion relating to the intelligence of the Negro. Some students in the field contend that the Negro's intelligence, as measured by the tests available for all individuals, is naturally lower due to hereditary factors. Other investigators (these seem to be in the majority1 believe that environment plays the major role in lowering their ability to gain a comparable score with white individuals.

A Study Of Personality And Interest Traits Of Successful And Unsuccessful Group Work Leaders Using Six Standardized Tests, Mary E. Flannigan Aug 1951

A Study Of Personality And Interest Traits Of Successful And Unsuccessful Group Work Leaders Using Six Standardized Tests, Mary E. Flannigan

Student Work

No recreational or leisure-time program can rise above the level of its leadership. No matter how fine the objectives of the Board of Directors and the Executive, if they are not matched by competence of those who actually provide leadership, they fail.

From the standpoint of objectives and policies, nothing so directly determines the value and outcome of a Social Group Work Agency as the leaders in program activities. It is the Group Leaders, whether paid or volunteer, within an agency that reduce to a minimum the gap between the possible and actual effectiveness of the program.


An Investigation Of Certain Aspects Of Human Figure Drawings As A Measure Of Sociability Of The Person, Vincent Boone Alig Aug 1951

An Investigation Of Certain Aspects Of Human Figure Drawings As A Measure Of Sociability Of The Person, Vincent Boone Alig

Graduate Thesis Collection

For many years considerable interest has been shown in spontaneous drawing productions as related to personality study. However, little has been accomplished toward validating this measure as useful in the clinic, and even less has been done to demonstrate its usefulness with "normal" individuals. This study, therefore, is an attempt to determine whether or not certain aspects i.e., the manner in which the arms and hands are represented, in drawings of the human figure will objectively differentiate between social and non-social, "normal" individuals.

Correlations Between The Johnson Temperament Analysis And The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory Based Upon 100 Male Counselees, F. Alec Phillips Jul 1951

Correlations Between The Johnson Temperament Analysis And The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory Based Upon 100 Male Counselees, F. Alec Phillips

Student Work

The field of personality is one of the most popular, challenging, important, and confused in present-day psychological studies.

During the psychology’s infancy, the study was neglected by the psychologists and left to the uncontrolled clinical methods of the psychiatrists and psychoanalysis. Finally, study in this field has been undertaken by psychologists possessing scientific method, but too often lacking the orientation to persons as such, which characterizes the clinically trained psychiatrists. It should, therefore, he no surprise to find chaotic conditions ruling the study of the psychology of personality.
