Migration Into San Juan Indian Pueblo, 1726-1968, Shirley Hill Witt

Anthropology ETDs

Ethnographic literature and popular opinion conjoin in the belief that American Pueblo Indians reside in endogamous communities. Since one pueblo community is part of our population under study, it behooves us to assess its genic relation to the wider population of the Chama Valley-San Juan Jurisdiction area. If it is endogamous, then, of course, it is a genetic isolate and, as such, contributes nothing on the biological level to the outside population. If, on the other hand, the pueblo is exogamous, we need to know how and what is transferred both to the outside population and from the outside population …

Folk Elements In The Fiction Of James Still, Edith Walker

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This study attempts to complement earlier studies of Still’s literary art such as that of Dean Cadle and Katherine Craf by pointing out the integral use of folk elements in his fiction. The methodology combined field studies with investigation of the works of folklorists and historians and novelists whose writings center around the same general region as do those of Still

For the purposes of this study “folk elements” will denote the orally transmitted traditions of the common people of a particular region. In this case, the “folk” are a rural people who have remained relatively stable for several generations …

Hierarchy And Equality In Three Latin American Peasant Communities, Luis Fernando Cruz-Sandoval

Anthropology ETDs

This paper deals with three peasant communities; the Tzotzil Indians of Zinacantan, in Chiapas, Mexico; the Quechua Indians of Hualcan, in Ancash, Peru; and the Mixtec Indians of Santo Domingo barrio, in Oaxaca, Mexico. The problem investigated is the relationship of hierarchical or egalitarian structures in religion to the familial, economic, and political organizations in all three communities.

Chippewa Townsmen: A Study In Small-Scale Urban Adaptation, J. Anthony Paredes

Anthropology ETDs

This is a study of Chippewa Indians living in a small northern Minnesota city which is in close proximity to the reservations from which the majority of the adult Indians have originated. The research deals with two relate problems; (1) Identification of determinants for Chippewa relocation to this community; and (2) Specification of the dimensions of adaptation and their inter-relationships in the urban population studied. The total socio-cultural environmental is analytically conceived as consisting of four major elements: the American economic system, American mass culture and society, the city, and “Indian culture,” which is further subdivided into traditional culture, reservation …

Sandia Pueblo: Persistence And Change In A New Mexican Indian Community, Suzanne Lee Simons

Anthropology ETDs

The dissertation has a twofold purpose: to redress the lacuna in the social anthropological literature with respect to the Tiwa-speaking pueblo of Sandia, New Mexico, and to account for the persistence of this traditionally oriented community despite dependence upon a complex industrial society which is potentially conducive to sociocultural disorganization. To accomplish this dual aim, field work was conducted at Sandia for two and one-half years, during which observations were made of contemporary pueblo social relations and lengthy interviews were conducted with selected residents. The conceptual framework utilized stresses a structural-functional mode of analysis. With respect to the problem of …

Ideal Family Size And Acceptable Contraceptive Devices: A Study Of L.D.S. Student Attitudes At Utah State University, Robert Ray Weber

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

This study was undertaken because of the seemingly large families of the Mormons in Logan, Utah. Until this year I had never been in an area where Mormons made up a significant proportion of the population and had not realized the apparent difference in family size when compared to non-Mormons.

As a member of the Experienced Teacher Fellowship Program, I also had occasion to take two classes in Marriage and Family in the Family Life College at the University, and this also stirred my interest in the subject.

In the process of reviewing the literature on family size (fertility) and …

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Preferences of the size of family and the relationship between the size of family and a number of socio-economic and demographic variables were studied among high school senior girls in three northern Utah counties by a special survey.

The questionnaire specifically designed for the study was administered between November 1967 and February 1968 in all high schools in Cache, Box Elder and Rich counties with the exception of Logan High School in Logan and Box Elder High School in Brigham City.

Two questions were used to elicit the answers on the preference of family size; one was designed to elicit …

The Utah Black Hawk War 1865-1871, Deloy J. Spencer

All Graduate Plan B and other Reports, Spring 1920 to Spring 2023

From 1865 until 1871 the Territory of Utah was the scene of a little-known war. The Ute and Piute Indians responding to pressure of white settlers devastated much of Utah south of Spanish Fork. During the first three years of warfare the Mormon Settlements south of the Utah Valley struggled to exist. The next three years saw improving conditions but a continuation of raids by the Navaho in the south.

This was a private war. Attempts to get government aid were futile. The settlers and the Mormon Church provided the men and equipment necessary. While the problems faced by the …

Attitudes Toward Water Resource Development, Use, And Control And The Rural-Urban Diffferential In The Bear River Basin, James Lane Gillings

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The rural-urban differential was investigated in its relationship to certain expressed attitudes relating to natural resource development, use, and control. The rural-urban differential was also investigated as a variable affecting expressed attitudes toward the educational, economic, and political institutions. The two sets of expressed attitudes were then correlated to each other.

A difference was found between the rural and the urban groups regarding their expressed attitudes concerning natural resource development, use, and control. Differences between the rural and the urban groups were also found in regard to attitudes toward the political institution. No significant differences were found regarding the attitudes …

A Study Of A Community In The Process Of Withdrawing A Service, Emma Lois Smith

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

In 1942, the Navy Department constructed a Naval Supply Depot at Clearfield, Utah. The northern part of Davis County was still in the grips of the Depression of the 1930's. Therefore, the Public Housing Administration constructed a temporary housing unit of cinderblocks under the authorization of the Lehman Act of 1940 for those who came to the Clearfield area for employment. It was named Anchorage. In 1955, the Federal Government sold Anchorage to Clearfield City for $20,451.70.

Clearfield City hired a crew of three men to maintain the project. The maintenance of the project slowly deteriorated through the years. Major …

The Effects Of The Psycho-Social Need For Security On Irrigation Farmers' Behavior And Cognition Related To Water Resources, Dennis Call Geertsen

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The findings of this study indicated, contrary to expectations, that irrigation farmers who expressed needs for water did not engage in certain types of goal-oriented behavior designed to resolve those needs any more so than did those who did not express these needs. There were four measures of goal-orientation which included: Attendance at meetings about the Bear River Project, actively seeking information about said Project and positive attitude toward development of the Bear River.

There were significant relationships, however, between expressed water needs and worries over the water supply, the experiencing of human problems related to water use and perceived …

The object was to determine the extent to which the Latter-day Saint families in this area were holding the Family Horne Evening Program and what variables influenced their participation.

Sixty percent of those interviewed said they participated in the Family Horne Evening Program when it was first introduced to the Church membership. Eight months later participation had dropped to 40 percent. It was found that patterns …
