Systems Theory, Robert D. Leighninger Jr.

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Systems Theory has generated a lot of excitement in the last decade. It has also spawned more than its share of pitchmen, enough so that it is in danger of being discredited before its genuine potential in many fields of practice has been fairly tested. Wearing the double halo of Science and Corporate Efficiency conferred by its association with the aerospace industry and the Pentagon, it has been enthusiastically offered to Federal and State governments (Chartrand, 1971; Hoos, 1969 & 1972) as well as private individuals and organizations as a way of solving complex social problems like mass transit, crime, …

Values Of Dental Hygienists In Three Different Occupational Settings, Adele Cereghino Koot

Dental Hygiene Theses & Dissertations

This study investigated values of dental hygienists in three occupational settings: private practice, community practice, and higher education.

The Allport, Vernon, Lindzey Study of Values was used to measure values of all licensed dental hygienists in North Carolina employed in one of the three occupational settings.

An ex post facto 3x3x3x4x4 factorial research design was used. Occupational setting, age, year of graduation, educational level, and length of time in present position were the non-manipulated independent variables; and the Allport, Vernon, Lindzey Study of Values scores were used as dependent variables. Five-way analysis of variance revealed no significant value differences among …

Intracardiac Phonocardiography In Subaortic Stenosis, Paul D. Stein, Hani N. Sabbah, Daniel T. Anbe, Fareed Khaja, Gordon M. Folger Jr.

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The purpose of this study is to explore the value of intracardiac sound recordings for the verification of subaortic stenosis. Intracardiac sound was measured in ten patients with subaortic obstructions. Seven had idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis, two had a subvalvular membrane, and one had a subvalvular tunnel. In each patient, a systolic murmur was recorded within the left ventricle distal to the obstruction. The murmur was of lower amplitude distal to the aortic valve, and it was of even lower amplitude or absent proximal to the obstruction. In the presence of entrapment, no intraventricular murmur occurred although an apparent subvalvular …

Tensile Properties Of Stainless Steel Orthodontic Wire, Elbert E. Jackson

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Ten types of .020 inch stainless steel wire were compared using a tensile test. The wires were tested in the as-received condition and after heat treatment at 750°F for eleven minutes. The data were then analyzed statistically using the general linear hypothesis.

In the as-received condition each of four mechanical properties--elastic modulus, 0.2 per cent yield strength, tensile strength, and percent elongation--was found to vary significantly from one type to another.

When subjected to heat treatment, the elastic modulus proved to be the most stable of the four properties, changing only slightly in three cases. There was no significant change …

The Effect Of Perceptual Set On Listener Judgments Of Voice Quality Deviations, Patricia M. Hansen

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to test the possible influence of perceptual set on listeners' judgments of voice quality deviations. Perceptual set was created by instructions given to an experimental group which limited their choices, thus encouraging a particular response. The effect of set on the overall performance of the group, on backward versus forward voice samples and on the level of experience of the listener were all investigated.

The sample for this study was comprised of 24 students of speech pathology and audiology. The subjects were divided into matched experimental and control groups and asked to listen to …

Living And Acting In An Altered Body: A Phenomenological Description Of Amputation, Mary Jo Deegan

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Adults with recent amputations are often perceived as suffering from post-operative depression and phantom limbs. These states are frequently seen as failures in "adjustment" since there are often few physiological involvements which curtail daily functioning. This perspective is seen as compatible with major American values of pragmatism, individualism, and a mechanistic medical model. We suggest here that problems in daily living and the phantom limb are not "mental" aberrations but rather reflections of a radically altered lived experience. The performance of the actor is significantly changed and can be discussed as a function of changed experience, and style. This persppctivedraws …

The Influence Of Isotonic And Isokinetic Weight Training On Vertical Jumping Proficiency, Jeffrey Thomas Spielman

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of isotonic and isokinetic weight training on vertical jumping proficiency as measured by a modified vertical jump. The subjects were college students enrolled in the Fitness and Lifetime Activities Program at South Dakota State University in Brookings, South Dakota. Isotonic and isokinetic training were assigned to the two experimental groups with the third group serving as controls. Training for the experimental groups consisted of isotonic circuit training on a Universal weight machine and isokinetic training on a Leaper machine. Data analysis included a reliability and reproducibility assessment, and a one-way …
