The Illusion Of Mirrored And Reflective Surfaces, Doug Castenson

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The study of mirrored and reflective surfaces has been a fascination of mine for several years. It began with a curiosity in the reflected image from the traditional wall mirror and other mirrored and reflective surfaces. My earliest graduate research concentrated on the illustration of reflected images on a two-dimensional surface. As my work progressed, however, the discovery of new media such as mirrored plexiglass and reflective paints allowed me greater flexibility and introduced the possibility of distorting the perceived mirrored image. Experimentation with these materials indicated the possibility of using the entire surface as a reflective mirror, quite unrelated …

A Study Of The Relationships Between Measures Of Fluid And Piagetian Intelligence, James Ray Hurley

Graduate Research Papers

Francis Galton (1869) was the first to suggest the scaling of human general intelligence, distinguishing fourteen grades ranging from the most illustrious and eminent to imbeciles and idiots. He sought to show that such intelligence was mainly hereditarily determined, although he was awe.re that most brilliant individuals were reared in intellectually stimulating environments. Charles Spearman, an officer in the British Army and a man of great military tradi tion, likewise became interested in the nature of intelligence. Comparatively late in life he became a professor at the University of London, where he built a world-famous psychological research center. Spearman asked …

Exploring The Relationship Between Moral And Friendship Development In Male Educable Mentally Retarded Students And Regular Class Students, Shirley Phillips Gill

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The purposes of this study were 1) to compare the Moral and Friendship Development of regular class male students 1 with that of age matched EMR male students, and 2) to compare the relationship between Moral and Friendship Development within each group.

The 30 male subjects, 15 from regular classes and 15 from EMR classes, were equally divided into three chronological age groups; 5-6, 7-8, and 9-10. The regular class subjects were attending the UNI lab school; EMR subjects were attending public schools in Fredricksburg, Charles City, Cedar Falls and Waterloo, Iowa.

Each subject was presented with three filmstrips and …

Ascetic Progression, Nancy Bartusch

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The title of my Studio Thesis is Ascetic Progression. My paintings reflect asceticism because they involve a solitary, personal search. The search leads to the unknown, as in a silent, tidal progression. I do not want to paint the things that I know. I may use a certain type of imagery or structure repeatedly as one uses the same language in new composition to express new thought. I am painting blindly in a way. I say blindly, because I want to reach beyond what I know. I may learn it at a later time, but when I paint it, it …

Noise Pollution In The Industrial Arts Laboratory, James A. Sundell

Graduate Research Papers

Industrial arts instructors have always recognized the need for a pleasant and safe environment in their laboratories. Advancements in technology have increased noise pollution in this environment.

Sounds have a useful and important place in the laboratory; also, they can have adverse effects. The instructor can tell immediately if a machine is not performing correctly by the sound it emits, while the operation of the same machine can distort an important verbal communication. Excessive decibel levels may be generated at different times threatening the psychological and physiological well-being of teachers and students (Brown, 1979; Hicks, 1973; Swogger, 1973).

Tetrahymena: Cell For All Seasons, Eugene C. Bovee

Iowa Science Teachers Journal

Certain protozoa have often been the cellular animals of choice for research and teaching in the past 100 years. In 1926, Asa Schaeffer (20) placed "the amoeba" at the pinnacle for animals that serve as primary research tools, along with the dog and the frog. Paramecium (one or more of its species) and Euglena (one or more of its species) are other protozoa (the latter, also an alga) well-known and oft-employed in both teaching and research. In the past 40 years, however, another protozoan has gained prominence in research, equalling - even superseding - the three mentioned above. Its generic …
