The Relationship Of Age & Marital Status To Affiliative Imagery & Fear Of Success In Women, Brenda Francis

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Horner postulated the existence of an avoidance motive called the motive to avoid success and suggested that many women experience anxiety about achieving success because they expect negative consequences as a result of succeeding. Horner's fear of success concept has been widely cited as an explanation for the lack of stability and predictability in research on female achievement motivation. Recent research by Tomlinson-Keasey has demonstrated much lower fear of success in older, married college women than in a younger, single group. This finding was attributed to the age difference between the married and single groups, but more specifically to role …

I Love Ta Plow: The Role Of Traditional Farm Women In Peytonsburg, Kentucky, Linda White

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This study is a development of the work roles of traditional farm women in Peytonsburg, Kentucky. Peytonsburg is a relatively isolated area along the western border of the Appalachians. Traditional processes such as broom-making, chair-making, quilting, spinning and traditional farming are still practiced there.

Taped interviews were conducted with seven women ranging from sixty-five to eighty-eight years old. The women were questioned concerning their house and field cores as well as their philosophies and attitudes toward their life styles. It was revealed in this study that the traditional farm women of this area work throughout the year to keep the …

Grass Roots Women's Studies: South Carolina, Leslie Todd, Linda Todd

Women's Studies Quarterly

Although big industry is changing South Carolina's standing as a mainly agricultural state, its population is still generally rural—and conservative. Several major corporations have built plants in recent years; the attendant influx of upper middle-class families has created pockets of comparative wealth. Despite these new population clusters, however, the state's educational standards reflect a "small-town" ethos, particularly at the secondary level. Most of South Carolina's liberal arts colleges are located around its more densely populated cities: Columbia (the state capital, located in the center of the state; population approximately 114,000); Greenville (in the northwest corner, population approximately 62,000) and Charleston …

Grass Roots Women's Studies: Chicago, Cathy N. Davidson

Women's Studies Quarterly

The women's studies offerings on college campuses in the Chicago area seem, at first glance, disappointing. the University of Chicago has no courses in this field; neither Northwestern University nor the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle allows an undergraduate major. But despite such inauspicious indications of a general lack of commitment to women's studies in the Second City, there are still a number of more or less established programs available. For example, both Chicago Circle and Northwestern, although they give no degree in women's studies, do staff courses that would almost allow one. At Circle, approximately 80 women each …

Homosexuality Among Women: Historical And Current Views In Psychology, Craig Bracy

Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of this review is to evaluate the methodology of past and present research with female homosexuals and then to summarize the current state of knowledge in psychology and psychiatry. The data presented in this review have been derived predominantly from material abstracted in the Medicus Index (1900-1976) and Psychology Abstracts (1927-1976).

This reviewer has established specific criteria by which all studies throughout this literature review will be examined. These are: sample size, sampling of experimental control groups, variable controlled (age, education, etc), how sexual orientation was determined, and tests and questionnaires employed, their reliability, validity, administration, and interpretation. …

American Feminism And Social Democracy, Cathy Elizabeth Hinshaw

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The concepts of both social democracy and feminism will be discussed in detail in the course of the thesis. By way of introduction, broad definitions for these concepts will be offered here. Before attempting these definitions, however, the "central validity" of which Lippmann speaks and around which the definitions revolve should be established. The core of both social democracy and feminism, as they are to be used here, is a particular understanding of the notion of equality.

Letters To The Editor: Coeducation?, Elizabeth Newman

Women's Studies Quarterly

Dear Ms. Howe,

I am a junior at Hunter College High School, and am taking a social studies course entitled Women in American History. I am working on my term paper for the course American Women in Science and I came across your paper in Women and Success: The Anatomy of Achievement edited by Ruth Kundskin. I was particularly attracted by your suggestion of "separatism" in the schools, a means by which young males and females can meet with members of their own sex for consciousness-raising sessions.

International "Feminology" Conference, Barbara Rubin

Women's Studies Quarterly

[FEMINOLOGY n. 1. a Danish term used for scholarship concerning women's position in society, past and present; 2. an interdisciplinary field of study and research about women]

It was a European first: The Dutch/Scandinavian Symposium on Woman's Position in Society. I stumbled onto the conference plans while researching international feminism in Amsterdam, received an invitation, and soon was en route to the University of Nijmegen, a conservative Dutch institution where women comprise only 23 percent of the student population—an ironic sponsor for a conference whose events would become strongly political and thorny during June 8-11, 1975.

Grass Roots Women's Studies: Southern Missouri, Betty Burnett

[With this article, we begin a series of reports written by Contributing Editors, responsible for particular regions they have chosen to cover. Additions, corrections and other remarks responding to this report will be welcome. If you are interested in becoming a Contributing Editor—and writing such a report—see the Spring 1975 Women's Studies Newsletter.]

Missouri is a conservative state, and southern Missouri is its most conservative area. The ERA has been defeated twice, and mainly through the efforts of women. Last spring during the ERA campaign, a lot of bad feeling was aroused and a lot of hysterical talk was heard. …

Intervention In Sex-Role Socialization, Sandra Stotsky

Women's Studies Quarterly

The teacher had assigned Caddie Woodlawn by Carol Ryrie Brink to a reading group in her fifth grade classroom. That evening an irate parent, a local police officer, telephoned the teacher at home demanding to know why his son was reading a "girl's book." When he was assured that his son could substitute another book for the class assignment, the matter was smoothed over. Several days later, with his mother's encouragement, the boy had begun to read the story and confessed to the teacher that it really was a good story—even if Caddie was a girl! This incident, the only …

Esther Manning Westervelt: A Memorial Minute, Sheila Tobias

Women's Studies Quarterly

As a colleague Esther Westervelt was a joy to work with. Her good looks, combined with her energy and her quick mind, put a lie to any stereotype one might have had about a successful woman of her generation. Long before I met her personally, I had already encountered her spirit through one of her students, a young woman who had not only been directed to a new career by Esther's teaching but who had learned to trust her own judgment by Esther's example.

Doing Research On Black American Women, Barbara Smith

Women's Studies Quarterly

"Fascinating" as black women are, there are as many unexplored questions about black women's lives as there are people to ask them. Less is known about this group, whose identity encompasses membership in two oppressed castes, than is known about either of these castes separately. Black studies and research focus almost exclusively on black men and women's studies and research focus almost entirely on white women. Black women, whose experience is unique, are seldom recognized as a particular social-cultural entity and are seldom thought to be important enough for serious scholarly consideration. This invisibility, however, means that the opportunities for …
