Linkages Among Preschoolers' Playground Behavior, Outcome Expectations, And Parental Disciplinary Strategies, Craig H. Hart, Michele Dewolf, Diane C. Burts
Faculty Publications
To explore relationships among parent's self-reported disciplinary strategies, preschoolers' outcome expectations, and playground behavior. 136 mothers of preschool age children (age range 39-71 months) participated in home disciplinary style interviews. Measures of preschoolers' outcome expectations and observations of children's' prosocial, antisocial/disruptive, and nonsocial/withdrawn playground behavior were also obtained. results indicated that power-assertive mothers had preschoolers who engaged in more antisocial/disruptive behavior and who expected successful instruments outcomes for hostile methods of resolving peer conflict. Preschoolers with such outcome expectations also participated in more antisocial playground behavior.

Race And Ethnic Variation In The Schooling Consequences Of Female Adolescent Sexual Activity, Renata Forste, Marta Tienda
Race And Ethnic Variation In The Schooling Consequences Of Female Adolescent Sexual Activity, Renata Forste, Marta Tienda
Faculty Publications
Data from the National Survey of Families and Households are used to examine the influence of adolescent childbearing and marriage on the likelihood of high school completion among a cohort of women aged 20 to 29 in 1987. Use of event history techniques reveals striking differences by ethnicity. While the effect of teen marriage on school completion was significant only for whites, adolescent childbearing had much stronger deleterious effects for Latinas than for white or especially black teens. Attitudinal data are presented in an effort to explain these differences.
The Significance Of The Private Letter In Immigration History, Niels Peter Stilling
The Significance Of The Private Letter In Immigration History, Niels Peter Stilling
The Bridge
The title of this paper is two-sided. The private letter is an important source for understanding the psychological and human aspects of immigration. It is also important to note that until recently historians have shown much too little interest in the documents from the immigrants themselves. My hypothesis, which I intend to discuss here, is that the private letter was the most important stimulating pull-factor in immigration history. In certain periods a call for USA was put forward in most letter series. Praising various aspects of American life, private letters were written to draw relatives or friends across the Atlantic. …

Jens Horstrup: A Labor Legacy, Shannon Kracht
Jens Horstrup: A Labor Legacy, Shannon Kracht
The Bridge
When Jens Horstrup was a young man, his father Albert taught him that every worker had a right to take part in decisions made by his or her employer. It was a lesson that he carried - and re-taught - for the remainder of his life. Born in July, 1907, in Fredrickshavn to a ship patternmaker father, Jens opted for the bricklaying trade. He served a seven-year apprenticeship in Denmark, worked as a bricklayer in his country for awhile, and, seeking the challenges inherent in new opportunities, traveled to America in 1927. In his book, The Danish Americans, George R. …

My First Ninety Years, Agneta Jensen Slott
The Bridge
My father and mother, John Christian and Anne Jensen and three children, Signius, Katherine and Kamille, came to America from Denmark in 1890. They settled in Tacoma for three years where my father worked as a bricklayer. Fremming, their fourth child, was born while they lived in Tacoma. After three years they came to Enumclaw, bought some wooded acreage which is now part of the King County Fair Grounds. My father cleared a space big enough to build a house. He worked in a logging camp and walked four miles to and from work. In 1893 they moved to Franklin …

Gribskov, Marius Larsen
The Bridge
Pastor Marius Larsen was one of the many Danish preachers who served Danish Lutheran Churches in the United States for a time and then returned to Denmark to accept pastorates in that country. Larsen served the Junction City, Oregon "Danish" Church in the late 1920s, and into the early 1930s, when he accepted a call to serve the Nathaniel Lutheran Church in Dagmar, Montana. He returned to Denmark in the mid 1930s and became pastor of the Als congregation located at the eastern end of "Limfjord," directly east of the city of Aalborg. While there he wrote a book about …

Weeping Water, A Typical Small Town Danish-American Community, 1880-1930, Edith Matteson, Jean Matteson
The Bridge
It is common knowledge that Danes established numerous small agricultural settlements across the United States during the period of mass emigration from Denmark that began in the 1860s and lasted through the 1920s. Yet scholars studying Danes in America have frequently devoted more attention to the institutions established in small towns in America than to the communities themselves. For example, if it had not been for Sophus K. Winther's trilogy that begins with the novel Take All to Nebraska (1936), the community established by Danes in and around Weeping Water in Cass County, Nebraska, would probably have passed unnoticed by …
Aberrant Mormon Settlers: The Homesteaders Of Highland, Utah, David T. Durfey
Aberrant Mormon Settlers: The Homesteaders Of Highland, Utah, David T. Durfey
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis is a history of the original thirty-seven homesteaders of Highland, Utah. It covers a period of about twenty-five years, 1875-1900. The study provides an example of a aberrant community which was not established in the same, distinctive style of settlement as the typical Mormon village. In addition it describes the relationship between the original residents and non-residents of Highland with the surrounding villages of Lehi, American Fork, and Alpine.

Denmark: Through A Glass Darkly, John W. Larson
Denmark: Through A Glass Darkly, John W. Larson
The Bridge
My Danish grandmother brought with her and retained an old country ambiance. It hung about her person in the formal way she dressed when visiting, in the erect way she sat and stood, and in her thick accent. When I think of her today, I do not visualize her in a specific residence, for she moved frequently, but I remember her distinctive atmosphere. An English visitor to the Danish island of Sj~lland wrote about 1860 that, "There is a refinement about the middle class of Danes in their household arrangements, seldom to be met with in other countries." During my …

A Land Conquered Nebraska's Mirage Flats, 1918 -1948, Norma C. Shirck
The Bridge
As the Civil War ground to an end in 1865 and Nebraska gained statehood in 1867, men and women turned their attention to the west, ever seeking a better way of life. Immigrants from Europe continued to swarm the shores of America and mingle with the pioneers trudging toward the western sun. The Danes, too, finding little in their homeland to keep them there, or escaping the heavy hands of the German military, flocked to the promised land.
The Geographical Analysis Of Mormon Temple Sites In Utah, Garth R. Liston
The Geographical Analysis Of Mormon Temple Sites In Utah, Garth R. Liston
Theses and Dissertations
The first eight temple sites in Utah were studied to determine important geographical characteristics of each, and to test the hypothesis that Mormon temple sites conform to definitions of sacred space. President Brigham Young of the Church greatly influenced the selection of the first four temple sites, and the construction of each until his death in 1877. Claimed revelation from God to Young and other leaders and members of the Church, was evident concerning the temple sites. The later four temple sites of the twentieth century were approved by the First Presidency of the Church, but local Church leaders and …
