Conversational Skills Training For Developmentally Delayed Board And Care Home Residents, Michael C. Carey

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Conversational skills training was administered to two developmentally delayed male residents of a board and care home to increase each subject's use of encouraging comments and on-topic questions during conversations with another resident.

The two subjects who received training were also assessed to see if the conversational behavior generalized to a third subject. …

Nicholas Patricios

There are many methods and techniques available to environmental designers to obtain and use information on spatial behavior, attitudes, preferences, opinions, and so on.

The Communication Of Morality: Cooperation And Commitment In A Food Co-Op, Teresa G. Labov

Teresa G Labov

Doctoral dissertation of Teresa Gnasso Labov. Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Political Science at Columbia University, 1980. This study investigates the communication of morality in the verbal behavior of a group. Patterns of interaction among members of a food cooperative are examined to find evidence of their use of moral matters in talk. Structural changes in the organization reduced the extent of cooperation and commitment demanded of participants, yet there was apparently little talk of these moral matters. Closer examination of the talk reveals a number of …

Ecología Urbana En Quito Durante La Década De Los Setenta, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

Desde la década de los sesenta la ciudad de Quito entra en un agudo proceso de transformación, que tiene sus raíces en el particular desarrollo capitalista del país; este proceso evoluciona con la articulación más dinámica de la sociedad nacional al capitalismo central, cuando éste ha procreado los gigantescos monopolios transnacionales para dirigirlos hacia la industria.

En la década de los años setenta el proceso se consolida en consonancia con la profundización de un desarrollo capitalista, sustentado en los ingresos derivados de la comercialización petrolera, la modernización de la estructura agraria y del Estado, la formación de ciertas condiciones favorables …
