A Theoretical Framework For Analyzing Residence Shifts Of Farm Families, B. Delworth Gardner

Faculty Publications

The ever-changing composition of the American rural population is an established fact and has been the subject of much research. Urban families are moving o the ''country" to escape the noise and congestion of the city, While the migration of people from the farm to urban centers continues . The net result is a decrease in rural population relative to that classified as urban, although in absolute terms the rural population is increasing also. In 1969 less than 30 per cent of all American were classed as rural residents compared to 60 percent in 1900 and 95 percent in 1790.

Perceived Parent-Child Interaction And Boys Self-Esteem In Two Cultural Contexts, Viktor Gecas, Darwin L. Thomas, Andrew Weigert

Faculty Publications

The problem under consideration in the present paper deals with the relationship between parent-child interaction patterns and the child's self esteem. The relationship between these variables will be examined in the context of samples drawn from two societies: Saint Paul, Minnesota and San Juan, Puerto Rico.¹ It is hoped that a cross-cultural investigation of the effects of parent-child interaction on the child's self esteem will enable us to make a more precise statement about the nature of this relationship.²

The Swiss American Historical Society (SAHS) is a reslative newcomer among the organizations which are dedicated to the historical study of a particular ethnic group. It was founded on July 4 , 192, in order "to meet the growing demand for a comprehensive account of the role which the Swiss element ... has played in the history of this country."

The Swiss American Historical Society In 1969: Goals, Membership, Officers, Lukas F. Burckhardt

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

The Swiss American Historical Society, founded in Chicago on July 4, 1927, and reactivated at a constitutional meeting in New York on December 29, 1964, has defined its goals in its revised constitution of November 13, 1965, as follows:

"The objects and purposes of this organization shall be to institute, conduct and encourage historical research; to record the achievements of Swiss American citizens and residents of Swiss extraction and their influence upon the progress and development of governmental institutions, and of industry, science and education in the United States of America; to analyze and describe all aspects of U.S. - …

Adolf Meyer (1866-1950): Profile Of A Swiss-American Psychiatrist, Barbara Sicherman

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

I wonder how many here this evening are familiar witht he work or even the name of Adolf Meyer. I would expect that he is know to few. Even in the field of psychiatry, towhichhecontributedso much, he has become little more than a name. Young psychiatrists are likely to learn only enought about Meyer to pass their medical boards. What they do read does not necessarily clarify his importance, for his theories seem either obivous or obscure, and far from electriying. Indeed, the recent question of one psychiatrist probably reflects the attitudes of many: "Just whar was so great about …

Letter From The Sahs Secretary, Lukas F. Burckhardt

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

This Newsletter is a brain child of our First Vice President, Dr. Leo Schelbert, now on sabbatical leave in Switzerland (address: Wilerweg 32, 4600 Olten). On his initiative, at our Regional Meeting in New York of May 2nd, 1969, Professor Barbara Siche:rman of Manhattanville College gave us a lecture on the life career of the Swiss American pioneer in psychiatry, Dr. med. Adolf Meyer (1866 - 1950). In the audience, our member Dr. med. Hans Syz, born 1894, who is with the Lifwynn Foundation at Westport, Connecticut, himself an outstanding psychiatrist, greatly enriched Miss Sichennan' s presentation by his personal …

An Investigation Of A Mycorrhizal Association On Opuntia Polyacantha, R. Craig Stutz

Theses and Dissertations

Roots of Opuntia, polyacantha Haw. from Juab County, Utah were found to be nodulated. An anatomical study of the nodulated roots showed them to be ectotrophic mycorrhizae. Fusarium poae (Peck) Wollenweaver was found associated with the nodules both as an epiphyte and an endophyte. However, reinfection with this organism failed to induce subsequent nodulation. Under certain conditions the roots of o. polyacantha are able to overcome the mycorrhizal infection and elongate. It is not uncommon for several branch roots to originate from a single nodule. It is suggested that the fungus-root association found in o. polyacantha represents an early stage …

Ultrastructural Investigations Of Tilletia Caries Teliospores, James Vincent Allen

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to investigate the ultrastructure of Tilletia caries teliospores. Specimens were prepared for viewing in the electron microscope by freeze-etching and thin-sectioning techniques. Thin-sectioning techniques gave excellent results with the teliospore walls and the lipid bodies within the teliospore but failed to adequately fix the membranes and internal organelle systems. Micrographs of Tilletia caries teliospores prepared using thin-sectioning show three major wall layers and two partition wall layers and abundant lipid bodies. The freeze-etch method of spore preparation proved superior to the thin-sectioning used in this study to reveal the internal organelle systems of the …

Religious And Secular Correlates Of The Lds Family Home Evening Program, Gordon E. Mauss

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to describe and explore three phenomenon of the L.D.S. Family Home Evening Program: (1) the nature of religious commitment in an L.D.S. sample, (2) the degree of participation, (3) the relation of certain religious and secular variables.
The data for the study were made available to the researcher by A. L. Mauss, as part of a larger study designed to measure the impact of Urbanism upon Mormonism. The instrument, modeled after the Glock and Stark studies, was adapted to a random sample of 958 members of the L.D.S. Church in Utah.
The nature of …

Thermodynamics Of Proton Dissociation And Metal Ion Complexation In Aqueous Solution. I, Cation Binding With Cyclic Polyethers: Significance In Ion Transport Processes. Ii, Proton Dissociation From Adenosine, Several Monosaccharides And Related Compounds. Iii, Proton Dissociation From Several Pyrimidines And Their Nucleosides At 10, 25 And 40°, Joseph Howard Ryttling

Theses and Dissertations

The log K, ΔH° and ΔS° values for the interaction of several metal ions with the two isomers of the cyclic polyether, 2,5,8,15,-18,21 hexaoxatricyclo[20.4.0.0^9,14]hexacosane are reported. The stability order found for alkali metal ion interaction with either isomer is identical to the order of ion permeability through reconstituted biological membranes for structurally related antibiotics. The size of the metal ion is critical in determining the extent of interaction. A calorimetric titration study of proton ionization from several monosaccharides and derivatives, pyrimidine bases and their nucleosides, adenosine and its derivatives, and cycloheptaamylose is described. The heats of reaction obtained in this …

Surface Characteristics Of Conidia From Monosporous Cultures Of Penicillium Digitatum And Aspergillus Nidulans Var. Echinulatus, Raymond Kunito Fuji

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the possible taxonomic significance of the "rodlet" patterns and spore wall configurations of conidia from monosporous cultures of Penicillium digitatum Saccardo and Aspergillus nidulans Eidam var. echinulatus Fennell & Raper. Freeze-etching the conidiospores from single spore isolates of these fungi revealed that spore wall patterns and configurations vary much too greatly to be of taxonomic importance on the strain and subspecies level. Environmental factors and genetic influences are discussed as possible mechanisms causing the variations of the spore wall configurations. A membrane-like structure that covers the "rodlet" patterns and which hinders spore …
