Satisfaction, Dissatisfaction, And Self-Actualization Among Top Level Employees Of The City Of Albuquerque - An Appraisal Of Organizational Climate., Vern H. Curtis

Anderson School of Management Theses & Dissertations

Having problem areas and potential problem areas identified within one's organization would be welcomed by most, if not all, administrators.

The primary tools for determining problem areas were a self-actualization test and Likert’s semantic differentials which characterize an organization's climate.

Automated Information Retrieval Systems For Legal Research, Robert G. Baylor

Dissertations and Theses

Purpose. This study of automated information retrieval systems was undertaken to attempt to ascertain the extent and development of a total legal information system.

Overview. Historically, lawyers have searched the statutes and case law in the traditionally manual method. Given consistent high standards of editing, not too complex materials, and a collection of manageable size, this manual method will work to reasonable satisfaction, so long as a document never changes in meaning or significance. Lawyers point out that the present manual system is inadequate because with 30,000 new judicial decisions and 15,000 new statutes being promulgated each year …

A Theory Of Formal Organization And Its Acceptance By The Business Practitioner, Edgar Thomas Busch

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Formal organization theory has evolved from the traditional school of thought through the scientific management and behavioral schools and into what is currently called open system theory. In spite of voluminous writing by the academician, no school of thought or no theory has been universally accepted. This may be due to the failure to consult the businessman who interprets and applies theoretical concepts to the practical situation. The purpose of this study was to help clear the theory jungle by determining the extent to which a sample of business practitioners agreed with basic factors of a comprehensive theory of formal …

Near Midair Collisions - The Extent Of The Hazard To General Aviation In Utah, Nevada, And Idaho, Robert B. Hulsman

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

This thesis randomly sampled the general aviation pilot population of Utah, Nevada, and Idaho for the purpose of determining the extent of the near midair collision hazards in these areas.
