Cerebral Asymmetries In Human Colour Perception, Zoe L. Hayes
Cerebral Asymmetries In Human Colour Perception, Zoe L. Hayes
Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)
Two experiments were designed in order to explore hemisphere asymmetries in both the identification and discrimination of colour. Extensive predictions were made based on the assumption that manual responses are controlled from the contralateral hemisphere and speech from the left hemisphere. The results of both experiments were inconclusive. Discussion centred around possible reasons for the limited effects and the design of future research.

Residential Stress: An Application Of A Comprehensive Stress Model, Graham Arthur Draper
Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)
This study identifies a need for an overall conceptual framework for viewing residential mobility and proposes that a stress-response model supplies that need. A proposed model tries to incorporate all the various existing notions of stress in one basic model. It provides for a wide variety of human experiences and responses, attempts to explain the stress condition, and provides a basis for future research in a variety of problem areas. The model is tested, and found to be satisfactory with a sample of high-rise apartment dwellers who moved within London, Ontario.
