The Measurement Of Filipino Attitudes Toward America By Use Of The Thurstone Techniques, Gertrude Hill Nystrom

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The present study aims to measure the attitudes of Filipino students toward American life by use of the Thurstone technique. Current literature in the field of race relations was searched for suitable brief statements or comments on American life made by Filipino students. Such studies were examined as the Pacific Coast Race Relations Survey, Social Distance Studies, and unpublished reports of Oriental Student Conferences in the United States. These statements in turn were submitted and sorted by fifty Filipino students selected at random from the Directory of Filipino Students in the United States, 1931.

The Relation Of Aptitude Test Data To Fall Quarter Grades - 998 Cases - Fall 1931, Lyle K. Henry

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This is a further study of the scholastic aptitude test which is given to entering students at Iowa State College. Research on this problem has been presented before the Academy of Science from time to time. Vance, in 1925, reported the correlations of parts of the test to quarter grades. In 1931, Cox, reporting on a revised form of the test, showed that tests 2 and 6, that is, tests on arithmetical reasoning and artificial language were most closely related with abilities in Chemistry, English and Mathematics as required of Freshman Engineers at Iowa State College.

Influences On Learning Of Tests Composed Of True And False Statements And Direct Questions, E. O. Finkenbinder

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Eighty points in psychology were written in each of the four types of questions, mentioned in the title, and presented to 92 college students at three different times within six weeks to see which type of question would be attended by the greatest amount of learning and also which would be retained best. There were four groups of students. Each had all four types of questions, but no two groups had any one of the questions in the same type. If one group had a true statement of a given question, another group had that same point presented in a …

A New Scientific Musical Staff, Carl E. Seashore

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

The psychological laboratory in the University of Iowa is conducting a number of studies in the psychology of music, laying scientific foundations for the theory and practice of the art. To make these scientific findings in the interpretation of vocal and instrumental music as actually rendered, it has been necessary to design a scientific type of musical score. This has been built as closely as possible in musical terminology but is so designed as to show in great detail how the notes are actually sung and played. For example, instead of indicating the note "C" by the usual musical notation, …

Basic Differences In Pitch, Intensity, And Time Between Good And Poor Voices During Speech, Elwood Murray, Joseph Tiffin

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

This investigation involves the photography of pitch, intensity, and duration changes in about 80 poor speaking voices and 60 good speaking voices to ascertain basic differences that will indicate procedures for remedial purposes. The voices studied were the best and the poorest among 970 freshmen at the University of Iowa as rated and described by speech pathologists of the university staff. By means of a procedure worked out by Tiffin and others, a synonymous intensity, a pitch, and duration record of each syllable is photographed on a single strip of sensitized paper six inches wide.
