Ocular Photography As A Scientific Approach To The Study Of Art, Herman F. Brandt Jan 1942

Ocular Photography As A Scientific Approach To The Study Of Art, Herman F. Brandt

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Regardless of how we look at art we project into the art object the response as expressed by individuals. Whether we judge design or color we evaluate it in the light of our own response to it. Since this is the general procedure in arriving at a decision in judging paintings or statuary we need to make inquiry as to just what behavior is involved in making such a choice.

Finding For A Psychology Of Religion, Earle E. Emme, Lowell De Garmo Jan 1942

Finding For A Psychology Of Religion, Earle E. Emme, Lowell De Garmo

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

A recent analysis of the nine most recent textbooks on the Psychology of Religion revealed a dearth of the commonly accepted findings in the field of psychology. Early authors omit topics of personality, mental health, personal religion, and religious expression. Childhood and adolescence were discussed in a minor way. Much emphasis was given to mysticism, immortality, primitive religions, prayer and other topics of considerable interest to theologians. The needs and interests of children, adolescents, and adults are readily recognized as basic to any adapted psychology of religion. Likewise, ideals, character values, methods of influencing youth, etc., should be rated as …


The Use Of The Standard Partial Regression Coefficient In Constructing General Botany Achievement Tests, W. H. Bragonier Jan 1942

The Use Of The Standard Partial Regression Coefficient In Constructing General Botany Achievement Tests, W. H. Bragonier

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Since 1926, various aspects of the general botany teaching program at Iowa State College have been studied. Victor (1933) and Dietz (1935) described studies dealing with teaching procedures and techniques and evaluation practices. Kreutzer (1935) and Dietz and Gould (1939) reported on certain phases of the testing program, particularly the practice of grouping students enrolled in Botany 101 according to scores made on pretests. Bragonier (1941) described the methods used in constructing and evaluating the pretests. The value of grouping the students for instructional purposes is generally acknowledged within the botany department, however, the means by which the students are …

Survey Courses In Mathematics, O. C. Kreider Jan 1942

Survey Courses In Mathematics, O. C. Kreider

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Many ideas have invaded mathematical discussions in recent times and have pointed out the need for survey courses in mathematics. By some, the people who presented these ideas have been considered fifth columnists to entice us away from our national traditional courses in mathematics. In our present crisis we find our national educational domain disarmed and at a disadvantage in the mathematical field.

Three Comparisons Of Retroactive And Proactive Inhibition, Benton J. Underwood Jan 1942

Three Comparisons Of Retroactive And Proactive Inhibition, Benton J. Underwood

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Retroactive inhibition (RI) has long been recognized as one of the most potent factors in forgetting. Of relative recent treatment is the forgetting produced by the operations defining proactive inhibition (PI). If RI is defined as a decrement in the recall of an activity as a result of other activity intervening between the original learning and recall, PI may be defined as a decrement in recall as a consequence of an activity which took place prior to the original learning.

Standards For Research In Personality (Abstract), Edward Rice, R. H. Sylvester Jan 1941

Standards For Research In Personality (Abstract), Edward Rice, R. H. Sylvester

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Vivid word pictures of personalities have ever been portrayed in biographies and character studies. But until the present half century, no standards had been established for analyses, evaluations or comparisons. Bases for present endeavors in those lines were laid in the nineties by pioneers in general psychology. Progress was accelerated by the maturation of methods of mental measurement from 1908 to 1927. Since the latter date, research men in personality have advanced largely by means of methods developed within their own field. Present tentative standards come from the following sources: (I) Imitations of proved methods of mental measurement. (2) Fulcra, …
