The Comparison Between Electrodermal Response And Hedonic Tone, Clifford E. Jurgensen

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The impressive method of single exposure has long been used to study feeling tone. The expressive method of electrodermal response is similarly used. If both of these methods are valid for the above purpose when used alone, there should be agreement between the two when used together. Essentially the purpose of this study is to determine the degree of relationship between these two methods of study.

The Radiometer: A Simple Instrument For The Measurement Of Radiant Energy In Field Studies, J. M. Aikman

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

During the past decade important advances have been made in the measurement of light and radiant energy. Although previous to this time emphasis was placed on the refinement of instruments for measuring light, during this period emphasis has been placed on the measurement of radiant energy since plants are affected by rays both longer and shorter than those of the visible spectrum.

Biological Fluid Osmotic Pressure Determinations, E. C. Mccracken

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

An outgrowth of the method used by A. V. Hill to determine the next liberation accompanying the passage of a nerve impulse has resulted in the development of an apparatus by which the osmotic pressure of as small quantities of fluid as .5 cu. mm. may be determined to an accuracy of .1 per cent NaCl. The principle consists essentially in the differential cooling effect produced between the experimental sample and a standard solution when placed in a standard, constant temperature, constant humidity environment. A discussion of the necessary thermocouple loop construction, electrical difficulties, and optical system is included in …

Pitch Perception Of Frequency Glides, Don Lewis, Grant Fairbanks

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

A rising or falling frequency glide at the end of a sustained tone is perceived as being of greater extent and longer duration than the identical physical phenomenon occurring at the beginning of the tone. This is true for both complex and pure tones, with intensity constant or varying.

Chemistry In The Iowa Academy Of Science, L. Chas. Raiford

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

As indicated in Table I, a preliminary meeting looking toward the organization of an academy of science in Iowa was held in Iowa City in 1875. According to the records three professors and four doctors were present at the meeting. Two of the professors were from Ames and one from Iowa City, while Ames, Iowa City, Davenport and Des Moines were represented by the four medical men. Five other persons, two of whom were in academic work and three in medical practice, stationed at Iowa City, Tabor, Clinton, Davenport and Dubuque, respectively, had previously expressed their approval of the proposed …

The Liquid Structure Of The N-Paraffins, A. B. Carr

The Biota Of The Cedar River As Related To Odor And Taste Production, E. J. Petry

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This paper presents a brief summary of surveys carried through the past two years, as an aid in the control of odor and taste in city water. So far as the writer is aware, no work of this kind has previously been done at Cedar Rapids, hence comparisons can only be drawn between the years covered, or amongst the months represented.

Magnetic Velocity Analysis Of Potassium Atoms Scattered By A Magnesium Oxide Crystal, Alexander Ellett, Victor W. Cohen

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

A beam of neutral potassium atoms is directed to the surface of an MgO crystal, incident at an adjustable angle of from 20 to 80 degrees. Perpendicular to this beam is a slit system which defines a second beam of atoms which have been scattered by the crystal. This second beam is directed to the region between a pair of Stern-Gerlach magnet pole pieces. The intensity of the beam is measured by means of a Langmuir-Taylor surface ionization detector.

Application Of Metal Spraying To The Construction Of A High Voltage Condenser, R. D. Huntoon

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In the construction of a high voltage condenser of the glass plate type it is necessary to coat relatively large areas (60 square yards in this case) with a smooth conducting layer well bonded to the glass. Spraying molten aluminum directly onto the surface was tried and found to give a suitable coating. A description of the commercial Metal-Spray apparatus will be given and samples of the sprayed glass presented. Such factors as preparation of the surface, spraying technique, adhesion of the film, electrical resistance of the coating, and the effect of the heat on the glass will be discussed.

Psychology Of The Emotions - Practical Aspects For The Teacher, E. G. Lockhart

On Teaching The Vernier Caliper, C. J. Lapp

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Fifty students divided into twenty-five pairs were studied. Twenty-five of them were taught by the usual method in laboratory while twenty-five were given instruction on the vernier caliper in the library. The following week both groups were given an actual performance examination. The results are surprising.

A General Outline Of A Universal Frequency Meter, D. O. Mccoy, G. W. Fox

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Some of the considerations encountered in the design and construction of a universal frequency meter will be presented. The standard frequency is generated by the use of a 100,000 cycle AT cut quartz crystal plate. The method used in producing this plate will be described.

The High-Vacuum Tetrode As A Thyratron, R. D. Huntoon

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

A circuit is described wherein the ordinary tetrode or screen-grid vacuum tube, when operated as a Dynatron exhibits the characteristics of a Thyratron or gas-filler triode. The method of determining the circuit constants and details of operation are given. Several simple applications such as quiet automatic volume control for radio receivers, "scale" counters, and sweep circuits are outlined.

Let's Psychologize On The Curriculum, Lyle K. Henry

The Orientation Of Liquid Crystals Of Paraazoxyanisol Occurring With Temperature Gradient And No Correction, G. W. Stewart, D. O. Holland

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The former author has shown by experimentation in paraazoxyanisol that there is a phenomenon of orientation of liquid crystals perpendicular to the direction of the temperature gradient if no convection is present. The interpretation made is that the orientation is caused by the scattering of elastic waves which predominate in the direction of the temperature gradient. Obviously such an experiment requires more complete verification. This the second author has done by photographing the entire diffraction ring produced by the liquid crystal group and by showing that the distribution of the density of the film is in accord with preceding experiments …
