The Sociological Effects Of Marijuana Legislation, Judith L. Friedman May 1972

The Sociological Effects Of Marijuana Legislation, Judith L. Friedman

Student Scholarship

The sociological effects of marijuana legislation are explored through a cyclical relationship between informal social control and formal law. The document defines three distinct foci: the informal code of morals and mores, a transitional period of social instability, and the eventual implementation of formal code. Morals are described as individual concerns or expressions of the superego, while mores are culturally salient norms that protect societal stability. The transition to formal legislation occurs when personal morals conflict too drastically with societal mores, causing a perceived threat to social order. 

The text argues that much of the push for restrictive marijuana legislation …

The Young Child's Concept Of Human Conception And Birth, Julie Ann Broberg Puzey

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The views held by children about the ere at ion and birth of babies are of importance in child development and developmental psychology. However, most of the research done in this area has been of a theoretical nature rather than empirical. The research shows controversy in the child's concept of human conception and birth, and because of this controversy a study was deemed necessary to find out more of what the young child's concept is of human conception and birth.

The purpose of this study, therefore, was to attempt to determine the extent of children's awareness of the nature of …

An Annotated Guide To Periodical Publications In Sociology And Related Disciplines (Revised Edition, 1972), M. P. Riley Dr., Kenneth Vogt

Agricultural Experiment Station Rural Sociology Pamphlets (1940-1977)

The students in the Intermediate Sociology class, Fall Semester, 1971, decided that a worthwhile class project would be to up-date the 1964 “A Guide to Periodical Publications in Sociology and Related Disciplines", in view of the fact that there had been a significant increase in University Library periodical acquisitions since 1964. The students believed that an up-to-date annotated guide to periodical literature in the field of Sociology and related sciences would be a useful research tool for undergraduate and graduate students majoring in the social sciences, and, more particularly in the field of Sociology. The class felt that a much …


New Forms Of Heterosexual Marriage And Mating, Robert Lundy Apr 1972

New Forms Of Heterosexual Marriage And Mating, Robert Lundy

Honors Theses

One third to one half of marriages are destined to end in a divorce court. However, in the de jure system or orders, monogamous marriage is the only accepted form with sexual behavior limited thereto. The nuclear family is the economic and residential unit. The expectation is that the marriage should last for the lifetime of the spouses, although increasingly there are provisions for exceptional cases termed failure. Other popular expectations are that the woman will be the socializing agent and the male will be the economic agent. This thesis explores the changing nature of families and marriage.
