A Study Of Alcohol Prevention Grants In The State Of Nebraska, 1973-1979, Center For Public Affairs Research (Cpar)

Publications

In the early 1970's as the enormous pressure of drug related problems was abating~ the attention of mental health professionals, school personnel, and the criminal justice system was refocused on the problems that come with alcohol. A new phenomenon seemed to be following the drug "scene", the increased alcohol usage among teen-agers and even children. The message was clear: an effort had to be made to prevent alcohol abuse before problem drinking became more widespread.

Alcoholism Research Project Of Mexican Americans In Scottsbluff, Nebraska, Jesse Cervantes, David R. Dimartino

Publications

The principle focus of this report is to assess the availability and utilization of established alcoholism services for Mexican Americans in the Scottsbluff area. Though important, the concern here is not with the absolute supply of services (for example, the number of quarter way and halfway houses in Scottsbluff County), nor is it with spatial distribution of services (for example, the location of the detoxification center in Scottsbluff County) . Rather, this analysis focuses on the utilization of existing services and the extent of the need for services by Mexican Americans in the Scottsbluff area.

Public Transit And Student Choice : A Survey With Portland State University Students, Sheku Gibril Kamara

Dissertations and Theses

Research in urban transportation has been of many facets. Some have emphasized modes and routes while others have attempted to isolate and look at small segments of the transportation market with specific demands. Such segments include workers, recreation riders, and to a less extent, students. In the "journey-to-work" studies, a major finding has been that as income of workers increases, the distance between residence and work-place also increases.

This thesis starts with a series of hypotheses generated as a result of the findings of other studies reviewed in the literature. In testing the hypotheses, variables that are likely to influence …
