Endocrine Dysfunction In Primary Depressive Disorders In The Mentally Retarded And Its Behavioral Correlates., Douglas Joseph Pawlarczyk

Theses and Dissertations

Melancholia or severe depression is a poorly explored phenomenon within mentally retarded populations. Traditional self-report measures of depression are of limited utility for most mentally retarded individuals. Data from a biological test for depression, the dexamethasone suppression test (DST), in conjunction with data from behavioral rating scales, may provide a more reliable means of delineating the nature of severe depression in mentally retarded individuals.Seven hundred and sixteen of the 810 residents of a large institution for mentally retarded individuals were rated by attendants for various characteristics of severe depression. On the basis of these ratings and the absence of other …

The Central Control Of Directional Fractionation: Lateralized Attentional Processes Indexed By Heart Rate., Anthony Stephen Papciak

Theses and Dissertations

The peripheral electrophysiological manifestation of different attentional systems was investigated by recording heart rate. Two groups were differentiated using the personality variable locus of control. Subjects were given a perceptual task, Navon figures, which had figures that differed on global and analytical features. A warning stimulus (x) cued the subjects to the beginning of each trial. Following this task subjects were trained on viewing line drawings in either a global or an analytic style. The global style required the subject to find the gist or overall theme of the picture and the analytic style required finding three objects in the …

The Effect Of Hydrocortisone On Auditory Sensitivity, Rodney J. Haug Jan 1984

The Effect Of Hydrocortisone On Auditory Sensitivity, Rodney J. Haug

Theses and Dissertations

In order to test the effect of cortisol on auditory thresholds, seventy-five volunteer right-handed college males were given either a 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg dose of hydrocortisone, or placebo, or were part of a control group in a double blind design. Right ear auditory thresholds were determined for frequencies of 500, 1,000, 4,000 and 8,000 Hz using the method of limits. The results were converted to mean threshold change scores by using threshold scores obtained for the same subject prior to treatment. Results indicated that treatment with 20 mg of cortisol reduced sensitivity at 8,000 Hz as compared …

Depositional Cycles And Coral Distribution, Mission Canyon And Charles Formations, Madison Group (Mississippian), Williston Basin, North Dakota, Douglas L. Waters

Theses and Dissertations

The distribution of corals, other fossils, and rock types of the Madison Group in the Williston Basin were studied in 29 cores (involving over 6,200 feet of core) from the Bottineau, Tilston, Frobisher-Alida, and Ratcliffe intervals in the western half of North Dakota. Occurrence of rock types, corals, and other fossils (brachiopods, bryozoans, red algae, and gastropods) of the Mission Canyon and lower Charles Formations were plotted in three cross-sections against the informal marker-defined intervals (Tilston, Frobisher-Alida, and Ratcliffe), as identified from well logs. Distribution and abundance of corals in nine of the more extensive cores were related to interpreted …
