All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The present investigation examined the effects of a parent's intervention to teach students with autism self-management to decrease their stereotypic behaviors.

Three mothers of children with autism were trained to reduce their children's stereotypic behaviors using a self-monitoring strategy. The training for the parent was conducted in two settings after the first baseline condition. A classroom was used for the first training session and the home was used for the second training session. The intervention by the parent was conducted …
Bald Eagles Wintering Along The Des Moines River, Iowa, Neil Sabine
Bald Eagles Wintering Along The Des Moines River, Iowa, Neil Sabine
Journal of the Iowa Academy of Science: JIAS
Distribution, habitat use, and foraging behavior of Bald Eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) wintering in southeast Iowa were studied in January - March 1990 and November 1990 - March 1991. Eagles were seen from November through March with the highest numbers in January and February. Adults had shorter winter residence times than immatures and they appeared to be less active during the day. Eagles concentrated their foraging efforts along certain river segments where they fed exclusively on fish. Timber harvesting along the river reduced eagle use and is considered to be the most serious threat to sustaining eagle use of the area. …
