A Cross-Cultural Study Of Conformity In Americans And Chinese., Lily C. Huang

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

The present investigation intended to study conformity of Chinese and Americans in several different situations through three independent experiments conducted in Taipei, Taiwan and in Albuquerque, New Mexico, based on the paradigm adapted from imitation studies. From historical and anthropological analyses of Chinese and American cultures, as ·well as from more recent experimental studies, there were reasons to expect Chinese to be more conforming and their behavior more dependent upon environmental influences.

The Determinants Of Curricular Offerings In Selected Public Adult High Schools In California., Vernon Stanley Jaquith

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

One of the tasks of the adult school administrator is that of planning the program to be offered to the public. Is it well balanced academic and vocational areas; does it satisfy the needs of the home-maker, the student, the apprentice; does it offer something for each to fulfill his educational needs? These and a number of other questions must be answered before an adult school program will satisfy the educational needs of the adult community it is to serve. Damon stated it well when he wrote that: Although adult education is assuming a more important place in the public …

An Alternative Analysis For The Situational Attitudes Scale, Charles G. Eberly

Faculty Research & Creative Activity

A re-analysis of the Situational Attitudes Scale (SAS) was conducted to investigate lts generality, validity and reliability and to suggest a more conservative method of analyzing the data. Three forms of the SAS were developed under the name Situational Attitude Inventory. Forms A and B corresponded to the originals; they tested attitudes toward whites and blacks, respectively, in varying social situations. Form c was developed to test the validity of the social situations for differentiation among alternative referents, which included welfare, age, ethnicity, and physical characteristics. The SAS was administered to a random sample of new freshman and transfer students …

Retention Of Traditional Culture Concepts And Attitudes Toward Education By Mexican-American Adults In Chelan And Douglas Counties, Jacqueline Mae Lee

All Master's Theses

This paper investigates t he hypothesis that where Mexican-Americans are few and far from the influence of Mexican culture, assimilation into Anglo culture has been more successful than in the southwest, where culture conflict necessitates special teaching methods. The study analyzes open-ended interviews with Mexican-American adults in Chelan and Douglas Counties, Washington, which reflect retention of traditional culture concepts and indifferent educational attitudes. The hypothesis is disproven.

Recommendations include altering parental educational attitudes through home visits by teachers.

An Investigation Of Occupational Values Held By A Group Of Rural Northern New Mexico Senior High School Students, Bill Leslie Johnson

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

The general objective of this research was to make certain predictions concerning occupational values from the cultural values of the three major ethnic groups represented in northern New Mexico—Anglo, Spanish-American, and Indian. A corollary to this main purpose was an investigation of the effect of maturation and sex upon occupational values. The research problem, then, centered upon analyzing differences in patterns of occupational values among various categories of individuals.
