The Relationship Of Church Activity Of Parents Of Lds Seminary Students To The Attendance Of Seminary Students At Church, Ronald D. Firth Jan 1968

The Relationship Of Church Activity Of Parents Of Lds Seminary Students To The Attendance Of Seminary Students At Church, Ronald D. Firth

Theses and Dissertations

It has been observed that not all L.D.S. Seminary students are active in church attendance. There is little doubt in the minds of educators that parents affect a great deal the activities of their children.

The purpose of the study was to learn what relationship, if any, existed between a seminary student's church attendance and the church activities of his parents, and to find out which, if any, of five specific areas of parental church activity had the most positive effect on a student's church attendance.

Based on his experience in the church, the writer chose the following areas of …

Theses and Dissertations

Log K values, valid at zero ionic strength are reported for the interaction in aqueous solution of CN- with Ni2+ and Hg2+ at 10°, 25° and 40°C, and with Pd2+ at 25°C. ∆H° and ∆S° values valid at zero ionic strength and 25°C are also reported for the interaction of CN- with Hg2+ and for the reaction Pd(CN)42- + CN- = Pd(CN)53-. In connection with the study of Pd2+ - CN- interaction, log K values for the hydrolysis of Pd2+ to give PqOH+ and Pd(OH)2 and an E° value for the reaction Pd(s) = Pd2+ + 2e- are reported. A …


Hematological Variation Associated With Altitude, Season, Sexual Activity And Body In The Uinta Ground Squirrel, Ralph Theodore Kinchloe Aug 1967

Hematological Variation Associated With Altitude, Season, Sexual Activity And Body In The Uinta Ground Squirrel, Ralph Theodore Kinchloe

Theses and Dissertations

Hematological comparisons were made on the Uinta ground squirrel (Citellus armatus) trapped at different altitudes and during vari ou s stages of seasonal activity in 1965 and 1966. Hematological variation due to sex, sexual activity and body weight were also analyzed. Ground squirrels were secured from the Mt. Timpanogos area near Provo, Utah County, Utah. Erythrocyte count, hematocrit, total blood hemoglobin, mean erythrocyte volume, mean erythrocyte hemoglobin and reticulocyte counts were measured using standard procedures; banding patterns of hemoglobin and serum proteins wer e determined by means of electrophoresis with polyacetate strips.


An Ecological Study Of The Algae And Mosses Of Cascade Springs, Wasatch County, Utah, Deanna Lynn Mccoard Aug 1967

An Ecological Study Of The Algae And Mosses Of Cascade Springs, Wasatch County, Utah, Deanna Lynn Mccoard

Theses and Dissertations

An ecological study was conducted at Cascade Springs, Wasatch county, Utah from August 1965, to June 1967. The algae and aquatic moss species were determined and ecological information about these organisms was obtained. Physical data were also collected: bicarbonates, carbonates, free carbon dioxide, hydroxides, oxygen, pH, and temperature. The physical environment of the water was found to be very constant. Tests taken at the different study sites were consistently similar, not only during each day, but all year around. No great variation of any kind was found in the water. In contrast to the water environment, the topography of the …


Secondary Reactions And Partial Rate Factors In The Sulfonation Of Chlorobenzene And Toluene, Ernest Arthur Brown Aug 1967

Secondary Reactions And Partial Rate Factors In The Sulfonation Of Chlorobenzene And Toluene, Ernest Arthur Brown

Theses and Dissertations

The sulfonation of chlorobenzene, chlorobenzene-benzene, and toluene-benzene mixtures by sulfur trioxide in liquid sulfur dioxide at -12.5° C. was studied to obtain isomer distribution and relative rate data. The isomer distribution for the reaction on chlorobenzene was determined by an isotope dillution technique. Relative rate experiments were conducted by sulfonating C14 labeled benzene in competition with nonradioactive chlorobenzene and toluene and the count rate of the products was used to determine product composition. Ultraviolet spectrophotometry was also used to investigate variations in isomer distributions as a function of sulfur trioxide concentration. The apparent relative rates of sulfonation (kX/kB) as calculated …


Investigation Of Nitrogen Fixation By Three Species Of Lichen, Dortha Maloy Robinson Aug 1967

Investigation Of Nitrogen Fixation By Three Species Of Lichen, Dortha Maloy Robinson

Theses and Dissertations

One species of lichen from each of three different families (Collema wyomingensis , Caloplaca elegans (Link)T. Fries, and Parmelia molliuscula Ach.) was studied to determine whether or not these lichens can fix atmospheric nitrogen. Samples of these three lichens were collected in the early spring of 1967. Samples of each species were placed in 20-ml glass tubes which contained 5 ml of glass wool saturated with 0.5 M nitrogen-free Hoaglands nutrient solution. These tubes were sealed by heat onto a gas manifold system and evacuated. An N15- enriched atmosphere (22 atoms % N15) was introduced into the tubes from the …

A Study Of Public Speaking Abilities Of Lds Youth, Robert W. West Jan 1967

A Study Of Public Speaking Abilities Of Lds Youth, Robert W. West

Theses and Dissertations

This study deals with public speaking among teenagers. It is the sincere hope of the writer that this thesis may challenge young people and help motivate them to become better speakers. If it does this then it is partly successful. It may point out some weaknesses and habits in their own style of speaking that are handicaps rather than assets. It may also show some of the strong points of teenage public speaking in general, the writer hopes it will help young speakers want to overcome the trifles of poor speech habits to make their speaking nearer perfection.


A Study Of The Attitudes Of Latter-Day Saint Seminary Students Toward Certain Church Standards Of Dress And Conduct, Alfred Lawrence Pace Iii Jan 1967

A Study Of The Attitudes Of Latter-Day Saint Seminary Students Toward Certain Church Standards Of Dress And Conduct, Alfred Lawrence Pace Iii

Theses and Dissertations

Standards of dress and conduct of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are presented to the youth in a variety of ways. Although these standards are all important, the seminary youth do not consider them to have equal relevance in their own personal lives; for they are concerned with particular standards, in particular ways, and at particular times. While some attempts have been made to solicit their views pertaining to such standards, most studies to date have not dealt with material which has been published and made available to all of the youth of the Church. Since teachers …

An Analysis Of The 1964 Idaho Second Congressional District Election Campaign, Dean Maurice Hansen

Theses and Dissertations

After having been elected to Congress from Idaho's Second Congressional District in 1960 by a record vote, and re-elected in 1962, Democrat Ralph Harding was defeated in 1964 by Republican George Hansen in the face of a national Democratic landslide. The objective of this thesis was to analyze the Harding-Hanson contest and attempt to identify the factors which produced the Hansen victory. The methodology employed in this analysis included library research, a comprehensive survey of newspapers serving the Second District which covered the congressional race, correspondence and interviews with candidates, campaign managers and other involved individuals and groups, a grass-roots …
