Chester Holcombe: The Christian Gentleman In Victorian America., Paige Wainwright Mcwilliams

All ETDs from UAB

Some historians have focused recently on the transformation of America from rural agrarian society to modern, urban industrial state. Robert Wiebe called the social response to this transition a search for order. The difficulty in applying this concept to historical interpretation is that the connection between the flow of history and the influence of private human motivations can be easily reduced to simplistic stimulus-response reactions.

A Nominal Group Process Approach To Identification Of Assessment Needs Of Multi-Problem Elderly., Louise R. Thibodaux Jan 1980

A Nominal Group Process Approach To Identification Of Assessment Needs Of Multi-Problem Elderly., Louise R. Thibodaux

All ETDs from UAB

Although nearly 11% of the population of the United States is over 65 years of age, there is, to date, no coherent national policy coordinating services to the elderly (Peterson, Powell and Robertson, 1976) . It is widely acknowledged that the elderly are the victims of inflation, rising crime, and lack of incentive to participate meaningfully in the nation’s economy. Nevertheless, Congress continues to plan for Federal assistance in a piecemeal fashion, treating senior citizens as a categorical group (Etzioni, 1976). Government services ranging from food stamps to crime prevention comprise 134 separate Federal programs administered under five executive departments …


The Effects Of Self-Monitoring And Relaxation Training On Blood Pressure And Other Related Behaviors In Essential Hypertension., Lisa Willis Claeren Jan 1980

The Effects Of Self-Monitoring And Relaxation Training On Blood Pressure And Other Related Behaviors In Essential Hypertension., Lisa Willis Claeren

All ETDs from UAB

This study used a multiple baseline design replicated across subjects to examine the effects on blood pressure of two behavioral treatments, self-monitoring alone and self-monitoring combined with relaxation training. The effects of treatments on heart rate, frontalis EMG, respiration and self-reports of tension (SUDS) were also investigated. Finally, changes in the accuracy with which subjects could estimate blood pressure were evaluated.Six subjects with essential hypertension proceeded through four treatment phases : baseline, self-monitoring, self-monitoring and relaxation training (combined-treatment), and follow-up. All subjects received the same number of sessions during each phase except the baseline condition, which was extended for three …

The Relation Between Auditory Selective Attention And Specific Learning Disabilities In Reading., Sally Kendrick Pierce

All ETDs from UAB

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between reading achievement and auditory selective attention and between reading achievement and cognitive style within a sample of specific learning disability (SLD) children. The sample was selected from SLD (reading) children who have attended the Educational Clinic or the Center for Developmental Learning Disorders at the University of Alabama in Birmingham.

An Assessment Of Alabama's 240-Hour State-Mandated Basic Police Training Curriculum., David Wayne Carlington

All ETDs from UAB

Within a period of only a few years, police training in the United States has moved from a situation of considerable ambivalence as to the need for any training of police personnel to a situation in which the need is now widely recognized. Only fools and liars would de-emphasize the priority of police training. However, there remains a wide rift between the nature and extent of the training that is required and the form it should take. Nevertheless, one premise appears to penetrate all debates ; the need for relevancy.

Individual Brainstorming And The Use Of Personal Analogies., Lu Ann Penn Jan 1980

Individual Brainstorming And The Use Of Personal Analogies., Lu Ann Penn

All ETDs from UAB

Creativity is the process through which novelty is achieved, this novelty being deemed useful or satisfying (Stein, 1974). The belief that creativity can be increased by training and that the same rules for problem solving apply equally to groups and to individuals has led to the development of a number of creative problem-solving techniques. The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two such techniques--brainstorming and personal analogies--as well as a combination of the two techniques when used by individuals.


A Synthesis And Characterization Of D-Lyxo-Hexos-5-Ulose From D-Mannose., Rogers E. Harry-O'Kuru Jan 1980

A Synthesis And Characterization Of D-Lyxo-Hexos-5-Ulose From D-Mannose., Rogers E. Harry-O'Kuru

All ETDs from UAB

A convenient synthesis of 5-keto-mannose (D-lyxo-hexos-5-ulose, 20) from D-mannose is described. Methyl 2,3-0-isopropylidene-a-D-manno furanoside was converted to its crystalline 6-0-triphenylmethyl ether which in turn was oxidized at the C-5 hydroxyl group with either methylsulfoxide/acetic anhydride or ruthenium tetraoxide/sodium periodate to methyl 2,3-0-isopropylidene-6-0-triphenylmethyl-α-D-lyxo-hexos-5-ulose. Mild acidic hydrolysis conditions cleaved the triphenyl- methyl group from 17 giving crystalline methyl 2,3-0-isopropylidene-α-D-lyxo-hexos-5-ulose, which was water soluble enough to be easily separated from triphenylcarbinol. The protecting groups on 19 were hydrolytically removed in the presence of H+ form resin to give the target compound 20. 5-Keto-mannose was characterized directly by 13C and high field (400 MHz) …


Effects Of Deep Touch Pressure On Anxiety., Kirsten Elizabeth Krauss Jan 1980

Effects Of Deep Touch Pressure On Anxiety., Kirsten Elizabeth Krauss

All ETDs from UAB

Touch, in general, can range from a light and barely perceptible sensation to one which is heavy, deep and painful. The sensation of deep touch pressure exists between these two extremes. Deep touch pressure is defined as the mechanical deformation of the skin, coupled with the stimulation of the underlying fascia and periosteum.
