The Influence Of Confidentiality Conditions On The Amount Of Self Disclosure Of The Early Adolescent, Bella Kobocow Apr 1981

The Influence Of Confidentiality Conditions On The Amount Of Self Disclosure Of The Early Adolescent, Bella Kobocow

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

While the importance of confidentiality in eliciting sensitive information in psychotherapy is generally assumed, there has been little experimental testing of this hypothesis. Therapists are understandably reluctant to manipulate conditions of confidentiality in a therapy situation, since such manipulation may adversely affect the progress of the client. In view of this circumstance, analogue experiments are an alternative in producing empirical data. The current study in an analogue. Forty-five male and forty-five female subjects were orally administered the same structured interview by a female experimenter. Interview questions were derived from existing standard personality and clinical assessment instruments, and school regulations and …

Involvement In Leisure Activities By Mental Health Center Clients And Non-Clients, David H. Roby Apr 1981

Involvement In Leisure Activities By Mental Health Center Clients And Non-Clients, David H. Roby

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

A survey on the level and frequency of leisure activity in individuals getting clinical aid was compared with that of individuals not presently contemplating or receiving such help. The subjects, 26 females and 24 males in each group, responded to a questionnaire which requested information regarding demographics, and the rate (days per week), and duration (minutes per day), or participation in selected leisure activities. As was expected, based on Galsser's concept of Positive Addiction, the nonclinical group showed significantly more involvement in activities rated as possible Positive Addictions. No significant difference was found between groups on absolute numbers of leisure …

The Diversity And Abundance Of The Benthic Macroinvertebrates In An Oligo-Mesotrophic Central Florida Lake, Jeffrey F. Spence Apr 1981

The Diversity And Abundance Of The Benthic Macroinvertebrates In An Oligo-Mesotrophic Central Florida Lake, Jeffrey F. Spence

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Benthic macroinvertebrates and physicochemical parameters were sampled monthly in Spring Lake, Florida from July, 1978, to June, 1979. Spring Lake is a slightly acidic, sand bottom lake located in the sandhill region of the Central Highlands. While submersed vegetation is not dense, the lake does contain an abundance of the endemic submersed plant Mayaca aubletii. The littoral zone is dominated by plants belonging to the genera Panicum, Nuphar, Hydrocotyle, Nymphaea, Satittaria, and Typha. The benthic macroinvertebrates collected consisted of 51 species; approximately 50 percent were in the family Chironomidae. The annual mean number of individuals was 947/m2. The mayfly Hexagenia …

Sex Role, Identity Sexual Preference, And Intrapersonal Competence In Women, India Aditi Apr 1981

Sex Role, Identity Sexual Preference, And Intrapersonal Competence In Women, India Aditi

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This research studies the interaction between sex role identity, sexual preference and intrapersonal competence. The subjects were 46 homosexual and 30 heterosexual white, single women of the Central Florida area. Subjects were classified as Masculine, Feminine, Androgynous or Undifferentiated using the Bem Sex Role Inventory. Intrapersonal Competence was measured using the Personal Adjustment, Self Confidence and Self Control scales of the Adjective Check List. A Two-way Analysis of Variance showed no significant main effects for sex role or sexual orientation. Post hoc analysis of the three Intrapersonal Competence subscales indicated that the Androgynous and Masculine women were higher in self …

Seasonal Periodicity Of Periphytic Algae In Relation To Water Quality In Three Florida Experimental Ponds, Michael J. Gilbrook Apr 1981

Seasonal Periodicity Of Periphytic Algae In Relation To Water Quality In Three Florida Experimental Ponds, Michael J. Gilbrook

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Periphytic algae biomass, periphyton taxonomic composition and water quality were monitored from October, 1978 through October, 1979 in three experimental ponds on the University of Central Florida campus, Orlando, Florida. Differences in the abundance and seasonal periodicity of phytoplankton in the ponds presumably arose from intrinsic differences in the nature of the pond sediments. Ceramic tile and pressboard wood artificial substrates were sampled at two-month intervals to provide estimates of periphyton biomass and productivity; there was no significant difference in algal biomass on wood and tile substrates. Algal productivity on continuous-immersion (cumulative) substrates which supported a large accumulation of periphyton …

Nutrient Retention In Shallow Reservoirs Using Selected Aquatic Macrophytes, Phillip D. Sacco Apr 1981

Nutrient Retention In Shallow Reservoirs Using Selected Aquatic Macrophytes, Phillip D. Sacco

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the possibility of using shallow reservoirs containing aquatic plants to reduce excess nutrient levels of agricultural drainage effluent from organic soils. The reservoir systems consisted of three small reservoirs in series, containing separate stands of Eichhornia crassipes, Egeria densa and Typha sp., and a single large reservoir containing equal areas of all three aquatic plants. A control reservoir without plants was included. Drainage water from organic soils was pumped through each reservoir at 39.6 l/sec., 6 hours per day, 6 days per week. the major nutrients monitored in theses flow-through systems included nitrate-N, …

An Experimental Study Of Dispersal Of The Cotton Rat, Sigmodon Hispidus, Stephen R. Stafford Apr 1981

An Experimental Study Of Dispersal Of The Cotton Rat, Sigmodon Hispidus, Stephen R. Stafford

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Dispersal of cotton rats was examined over an annual cycle of abundance by removal trapping in pine flatwoods. All cotton rats live-trapped at biweekly intervals on two 0.49 ha grids were removed, whereas rats on an adjacent control grid were tagged an released alive on site. The null hypothesis was that dispersing cotton rats would represent a random sample of sex and weight (age) classes from source populations, e.g. the control grid. Likewise, it was assumed that dispersal rates would be proportional to numerical changes in abundance on the control grid. Dispersing animals were clearly most prevalent on the removal …

Zooplankton Abundance And Diversity In Spring Lake, Florida, 1973-1976, Barry D. Billets Apr 1981

Zooplankton Abundance And Diversity In Spring Lake, Florida, 1973-1976, Barry D. Billets

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Seasonal variation in zooplanton abundance and diversity in Spring Lake, Florida was studies between 1973 - 1976. This clear, sand bottom lake is considered among the most oligotrophic in central Florida. Sixty rotifer species, sixteen cladoceran species, and seven copepod species were collected during the three year study. Annual mean zooplanton abundances ranged between 70 individuals/l and 80 individuals/l. Rotifers were more abundant than either cladocerans or adult copepods. Rotifers and immature crustaceans comprised nearly 75% of the annual mean zooplankton abundance. There was no significant difference (P < 0.05) between years for the annual mean abundance of zooplankton. The monthly mean abundance of cladocerans and adult copepods was generally less than 5 individuals/l. The greater abundance of rotifers in comparison to other zooplankton was mainly responsible for the variation in the values of the Shannon and Simpson Indices. The monthly mean Shannon Index was usually between 3.0 and 4.0. Seasonal differences in zooplankton abundance were apparently due to water temperature and specific conductivity for the 1974 - 1975 and 1975 - 1976 study years. Shannon diversity was significantly correlated with dissolved oxygen for the 1973 - 1974 and 1974 - 1975 study years.

The Effect Of Interpersonal Skills Training On The Self-Concept And Personal Problems Of Adolescent Males, Judith N. Sanborn Apr 1981

The Effect Of Interpersonal Skills Training On The Self-Concept And Personal Problems Of Adolescent Males, Judith N. Sanborn

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

This study undertook to determine of teaching interpersonal skills to adolescents who were already manifesting dysfunctional behavior would increase their self-concepts and decrease their personal problems. Of further interest to this study was whether or not once trained, the experience of utilizing these skills in a structured setting would further increase their self concepts and decrease their personal problems. Fifteen adolescent males who were residing in a residential center for children in need of supervision were randomly assigned to one of three experimental groups. The Piers-Harris Children's Self Concept Scale and the Mooney Problem Checklists - Junior High Form, were …
