[Review Of] Prejudice: Perceiving And Believing, David N. Mielke

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

During the past ten years Edward Asner has become one of the most highly regarded actors in television and cinema. He has seemed best suited to roles which have portrayed power, authority, and usually wisdom. The most impressive of his characters has been his ”Lou Grant” (probably due to its long tenure involving two shows) and the public has extended Lou Grant's attributes to Asner, the person. This public respect and confidence is a legitimate recognition of a liberal and concerned human being who has been involved with numerous causes of justice. It would have been difficult to find a …

Symbolic Interaction And Black Mental Health: Understanding Black Self-Conceptions, Shirley Vining Brown

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

The widespread preoccupation with racial identity in the last two decades has been seen not only as a symptom of alienation but also as a move by racial minorities to recapture what has been called a “surrendered identity.” This corrective action has its place in the historical evolution of American race relations but, at the same time, it has a price.

Synthesis And Biological Evaluation Of Sparsomycin Analogues, Scherer Preston Sanders

Theses and Dissertations

In 1962, Owen, Dietz, and Camiener reported the isolation of a new antitumor antibiotic from the culture filtrate of Streptomyces sparsogenes. The structure of the crystalline antibiotic, named sparsomycin, remained elusive until 1970, when Wiley and MacKellar reported results of spectroscopic and degradation studies which elucidated the structure. In addition to the molecular structure, investigators have examined the mechanism of action, toxicity, and related analogues, striving to establish sparsomycin or a synthetic analogue's usefulness as an effective chemotherapeutic agent.

The initial pharmacological evaluation of sparsomycin revealed it possessed activity against KB human epidermoid carcinoma cells, a variety of gram-negative and …

An Analysis Of The Effect Of Immediate Corrective Feedback Administered As A Study Aid To Undergraduate Medical Technology Students, Constance Anne Bak

Theses and Dissertations

Twenty-six undergraduate medical technology students at Virginia Commonwealth University were provided with a Hemestasis Study Guide to use during this unit and in preparing for an exam in this area. The study guide contained fifty objective-related questions in multiple-choice format. Answers were printed in latent image and included positive reinforcement for correct selections and remediation for incorrect ones. Thus the student received immediate feedback concerning his response to each question.

An examination grade continuum was plotted for this class utilizing all exam grades in the Hematology course. A similar continuum was plotted for each of the three previous classes. (These …

Genetic Studies Of Questionnaire Data From A Residential School For The Deaf, Frederick Robert Bieber

Theses and Dissertations

A self-administered thirteen page Hearing Loss Questionnaire (HLQ) was designed in order to systematically collect medical and family history data on deaf children and their families. Data were collected from over 400 families with one or more children enrolled in September 1979 at the Maryland School for the Deaf (MSD). Almost 70% of the parents provided pedigree and family history information by completing the detailed HLQ. Computer analyses of the collected data allowed a thorough examination of almost 200 medical and family history variables, providing useful reference data on the MSD probands. Parental responses to a four-step rating scale of …

Solubilization And Partial Characterization Of An Activity Regulating Complement Activation From Membranes Of Raji And Tonsil Cells, Patricia L. Carlson

Theses and Dissertations

Complement is one of the major innate nonspecific mechanisms for host defense in serum. More than a dozen proteins have been isolated from serum which have a function in either the activation or regulation of complement action. Complement is similar to the coagulation sequence in that it comprises a number of precursor proenzymes in plasma that are sequentially cleaved to generate biologically and enzymatically active proteins.
