The Pattern Of Religious Institution In The Northwest Urban Fringe Of Omaha, Nebraska, 1968, Grace R. Gardner

Student Work

Most writers attempt, at the outset, to define the subject of their discourse. To be certain of capturing the essence of an idea or concept, they will turn to renowned scholars and practitioners in the field and derive a composite of a wide array of views and approaches to the problem. Such an attempt In the field of religion reveals so many definitions and such variance between them, that it is soon apparent no simple definition will suffice.

A Sociological Consideration Of Pretense, John F. Else

Student Work

Few, if any, persons pass through a day without observing and engaging in some form of pretense. Pretense is a basic aspect of interpersonal relations. In an office or factory the supervisor tells the worker to ’’look busy" even when he does not have work to do. The salesman tries to make the customer feel as if the item being presented is the best buy ever placed on the market. Two people meet and exchange “PIeased to meet you!" when neither actually cares at all about the presence of the other; in fact, each may have negative feelings about meeting …

The Effects Of Mid-Task Motivation On Risk-Taking, Speed, And Persistence, Joel S. Stephenson

Student Work

Theoretical advances in science are often precipitated by some methodological development that permits a new approach to the guest for knowledge.

In addition, it is hoped that this study will make a significant contribution to the large body of knowledge spawned in the field of achievement motivation.
