A Case For The Sexual Impulsivity Perspective For Describing Issues Of Sexual Control, Barton A. Wieden

Graduate Research Papers

Currently, existing sexual dysfunction information has centered upon sexual desire and/or sexual response. Unfortunately, the concern over what has been referred to as sexual compulsivity (Quadland, 1985), sexual addiction (Schwartz & Brasted, 1985; Carnes, 1983), and sexual impulsivity (Barth & Kinder, 1987) had been met with sparse research at best. Much of what is now available is based upon historical discussions of hyperactive sexuality or nymphomania and satyriasis, the former receiving, the plurality of attention despite its lack of an operational definition and its sexist and judgmental connotation (Quadland, 1985).

Factors Associated With School Effectiveness, Tom Menke

Graduate Research Papers

Educators are faced with contradictory messages from the American public regarding public education. On the one hand, the public views the schools as inferior institutions responsible for or contributing to a host of social, economic, and political ills. On the other hand, the public regards the schools as the major, and sometimes the only, institution capable of solving any number of national calamities AIDS, drug abuse, teenage pregnancy, highway deaths, low voter turnouts -- the list goes on and on. Being both the problem and the solution, public education carries a heavy burden -- also a tremendous opportunity.

The Educational Impact Of The Assistant Principal, Dennis Eugene Modlin

Graduate Research Papers

Literature dealing with secondary school administration gives little reference to the educational role or impact of the assistant principal. Reports at the annual meeting of the American Educational Research Association by Marshall (1984) and Reed (1984) suggest that the role of the assistant principal is fairly ambiguous and oriented primarily to serving an organizational stability function only peripherally related to the instructional domain in schools.

Emerging Trends In Computer Information Systems And Their Impact On Offices Of Registrar And Admissions, Jeffrey A. Klunenberg

Graduate Research Papers

Every office using computers has become accustomed to change. Rapid development of new technologies, applications, and functions of computerization has produced organizational and procedural shifts in administrative computing activities at most colleges and universities. The lowering costs and increasing power of microcomputers are causing the decentralization of campus computer resources. Several trends have forced institutions to reexamine their academic administrative computing services. Computer networking, advanced message systems, expanding on-line application application systems, integration of voice and data technology, use of ''smart cards", and optical disk storage are examples of the technology available to colleges today. Integration of campus resources that …

A Preferred Vision For Administering Secondary Schools: A Reflective Essay, Gary L. Koenen

Graduate Research Papers

Current educational literature on effective schools has cited the critical role of the principal in establishing an outstanding school. Ernest Boyer (1984) has stated that "in schools where achievement was high and where there was a clear sense of community, we invariably found that the principal made the difference" (p. 22). Such a statement encourages me to consider my own personal attitudes guiding my professional career as a secondary principal.

How Children Cope With Death And The Role Adults Play, Jean Kruse

Graduate Research Papers

In the nineteen century, the experience of death was a very normal process for children to witness through the death of a brother, sister or parent. At that time most people died in the home, rather than in a hospital, and all the children were involved in caring for the dying family member. Because of this involvement children found nothing strange about death. Jackson (1965) wrote, "that for the children of that vintage death was natural, not remote" (p. 84).

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome: An Educational Dilemma, Carol Lensing

Graduate Research Papers

Hardly a day passes in the lives of most people without some mention of the disease AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) in the newspapers, on the news, or in conversations with others. For many, AIDS is a dreadful but distant threat affecting other people in other cities. For others it is a disease that has touched them personally through an infected family member or friend. Whatever experience a person has had to date, it is certain that AIDS will not go away. AIDS in the United States is a serious health crisis. As of February 1989, the total number of …

Are Children Really What They Eat?, Jerry Brown

Graduate Research Papers

The idea of looking at the entire picture is what Vass (1984) referred to as "holism." This simply stated that people cannot be fully understood unless the mind and body are seen as having an integral relationships. To understand children's behavior by looking at it holistically would be a major undertaking, but it is important to keep this in mind. A more limited approach to understanding a child's behavior would be to look at sugar, caffeine, food additives, and food allergies as factors in hyperactivity of elementary age kids.

Leisure Education In Career Counseling, Susan M. Schmitz Chizek

Graduate Research Papers

The interelatedness of work and leisure roles should be viewed as having a significant part to play in the career development process. There remains the need to cultivate an understanding of the functions and contributions of leisure to career development and to learn how leisure may be employed as a campus resource in fostering student development. Many factors are influencing the need for better educated students on quality leisure skills. The nature of work in today's society has changed, and its ability to provide satisfaction to the worker has diminished. However, good quality leisure skills will lead to better satisfied …

Counseling Family Members Of Recently Disabled Persons, Ingegerd Downing

Graduate Research Papers

The terms "acquired disability" or "adventitiously disabled" are used to describe a person who has had a normal physical development and normal lifestyle until an accident or illness caused the physical and/or mental disability (Buscaglia, 1975). The trauma associated with whatever led to the disability will have affected the disabled person. They may have been in serious condition and near death during the incident, may have faced the death and dying process and resolved it, or be stuck at one of the death stages such as anger or depression. They may be feeling helpless or suicidal. They may be acutely …

The Why Behind Their Leaving : A Look At Student Retention, Tamara Leigh Foels

Graduate Research Papers

Colleges faced with the threat of declining enrollments are examining options to continue their existence. An option which has always existed, but has frequently been overlooked, is the retention of currently enrolled students. As the quest for students becomes more critical, the option of retention becomes more obvious. It is apparent why retention of students is being given serious consideration at college campuses across the country. Tinto (1987) estimated that of 2.8 million students who entered college in 1986 as freshmen, over 1.6 million (57%) would leave their initial college without completing a degree. Of those nonpersisters, approximately 1.2 million …

The Role Of The Elementary School Counselor In Dealing With Latchkey Children, Bruce C. Gast

Graduate Research Papers

Children's care of themselves in the absence of adult supervision has existed since the industrial revolution and is an important part of current reality. To ensure that 1 keys to houses are not lost, many children, responsible for letting themselves into their homes after school, are required by their parents to wear keys on a chain around their necks. This explains where the term "latchkey" originated and why these kids are called this today. The latchkey problem is not new; it was a concern more than 80 years ago. Stroman and Duff (1982) reported that the theme of the 1943 …

New Perspectives On Alcoholism In Women And Their Implications For Prevention, Outreach And Treatment, Joan Jorgensen Hoeft

Graduate Research Papers

Alcoholism is one of the most serious public health problems in the United States today (National Council on Alcoholism, 1985). Alcoholism and alcohol abuse account for approximately 98,000 deaths annually, and twenty percent of national expenditures for hospital care (National Council on Alcoholism, 1985). One out of three Americans (56 million) said alcohol abuse has caused problems for their families (National Council on Alcoholism, 1985).
