The Supreme Court, Philosophy And Freedom Of Choice: An Analysis, Walter N. Blevins

Theses and Dissertations

It is a major contention of this thesis that to argue, debate and philosophize about choice and freedom of choice is one thing, but arguments as to the existence of free choice and claims to its exercise do not mean much, unless within the framework of social and political life the freedom is recognized and protected by some legal authority— in this case, the United States Supreme Court.

This thesis is directed at two areas of political research. First will be a survey and examination of current philosophic literature in order to specify and describe the various models employed in …

The Effects Of A Physical Conditioning Program On Selected Measures Of Self Concept, Kirby Franz Weise

Theses and Dissertations

Thirty-nine female college students participated in a class designed to increase their muscle strength and cardiovascular fitness. Changes were monitored on thirteen physical variables and eleven self concept variables. Nineteen females acted as a "control group," to test whether just the decision to change one's physical fitness affects self concept. They were measured on four self concept variables eight weeks prior to as well as at the beginning and end of their eight-week conditioning course.

During the sixteen week semester the experimental females, as a group, improved significantly on ten of the thirteen physical variables and nine of the eleven …

The Attribution Of Fault To Rape Victims: Subject Variables Affecting Blaming, Stephan Podrygula

Theses and Dissertations

This study investigates the subject variables involved in the attribution of fault to rape victims. A consideration of attribution theory, in particular Heider's "naive analysis of action," suggests that innocent victims of misfortune will be blamed, however implausible this at first seems. Heider's theory has led to two specific theoretical explanations for blaming, E. Walster's defensiveness hypothesis and Lerner's just world hypothesis, both of which are examined in some detail. The relevant theoretical and experimental literature is reviewed, an assessment of the current standing of these explanations is made, and unresolved issues are raised. Several issues and questions based on …

On The Dutch Expletive And Related Syntactic Problems, Kornelis J. Boot

Theses and Dissertations

In his Über das niederländische Adverbialpronomen 'er' Bech argues that the subject expletive of Dutch is inserted when the NP subject has an indefinite article. Bech also claims that the subjective expletive is a local subject and not a logical subject.

This thesis proposes that the use of the subject expletive cannot be based upon a traditional structuralist concept. The author rejects some of Bech's claims and argues for a semantic distinction between definiteness and non-definiteness as a basis for expletive insertion. An attempt is also made to apply the same distinction in accounting for the use of het with …

Nutrient Relations Of Some Northern Minnesota Forest Communities, Richard H. Bares

Theses and Dissertations

Quantitative information on chemical and physical properties of soils under aspen and jack pine and chemical properties of peat and water under black spruce and tamarack, is limited. The present study quantifies soil particle size, electrical conductivity (E.C.), water soluble and replaceable calcium (Ca) , magnesium (Mg), potassium (K), sodium (Na) , manganese (Mn) and strontium (Sr) concentrations in soils under aspen and jack pine communities. Aspen was found on alkaline clay soils with high Ca and Mg concentrations, and jack pine grew on wel1-drained, acidic, sandy clay loams high in Mn. Organic soils under peat and tamarack were analyzed …

States' Rights And Dualism: An Administrative Study Of Andrew Jackson's Indian Policy, John N. Olsgaard

Theses and Dissertations

This study attempts to provide the tools necessary for an accurate formulation of Andrew Jackson's administrative policies regarding the removal of the Five Civilized Tribes to the west of the Mississippi River. Such an undertaking integrates the biographical material available on Jackson with the narrative data compiled on the removal of the tribes, in a manner that will promote better understanding of the justifications, politics, and personal biases of the individuals involved.

This paper challenges the predominant view that Jackson was guided by an ideological affinity for states' rights philosophy in his presidential relations with the Indians. Jackson was not …

Processing Pictorial Information: Effects Of Informativeness, Location, And Duration, Richard L. Metzger

Theses and Dissertations

When an observer views a picture, enough information processing occurs prior to the first eye movement to direct the eyes to an informative portion of the picture. This early processing is influenced by the overall coherency of the picture and the informativeness of the various sections of the picture. The present study tested the hypothesis that the processing of pictorial information proceeds in a hierarchical manner from the most informative sections of a picture to the least informative sections. The hypothesis was evaluated by observing changes in the recognition accuracy of high medium and low informative sections of a picture, …

Frontier In Transition: A Demographic History Of Benton Country, Minnesota, 1850-1870, Stephen J. Schilling

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this thesis is to examine closely the transformation of a frontier area into a settled community. The demographic history of Benton County, Minnesota, from 1850 to 1870, is examined in detail. The major emphasis is on the structure of the population and its changes over a twenty-year period. The central goal is to determine if there was a pattern to these chanoes. Generalizations applied to the entire frontier will then be compared to this one county to see if they are valid.

The manuscript census was the major source of information. The demographic information for each individual, …
