An Analysis Of The Qualifications Of Selected Business Students Who Graduated From Comstock, Michigan, High School To Determine The Adequacy Of Their Training, Esther Larsen Fellows

Masters Theses

The Problem and Its Background

Since the first World War, business training on the secondary level has steadily grown in the number of students enrolled and in importance. New inventions, recent legislation involving more record keeping, and rapidly growing industry has brought about the demand for more workers, especially for office workers.

In a survey made in 1954 for the Comstock School Board it was found that most of the graduates from Comstock High School begin working in offices without further training. Although 49 per cent of the graduates seek further education before beginning regular employment, only 30 per cent …

The Relationship Of Missing Teeth To Lisps, Richard Swerzbin

Masters Theses

Introduction

The Problem and Its Background

The profession of speech therapy is little more than twenty-five years old. As in any new field many beliefs are currently held without experimental corroboration. One of these concerns dentition. The claim is made by some speech therapists that missing teeth cause lisps. Other therapists and writers have doubted this belief. It is therefore the purpose of this study to determine the relationship between missing and articulation of the sibilant sounds, [s], [z], [S], [3], [tS], [d3], among first grade school children.

An Investigation Of The Vocal Phonic Abilities Of Children With Normal Speech And Articulation Disorders, Orville Wilson Wensley

Masters Theses

Introduction

Much of the recent literature dealing with the etiology and treatment of functional articulatory defects, has been concerned with perceptual aspects of the problem. Many clinicians feel that it is in the area of perceptual deficiences that most of the causes of articulatory defects occur, even though research does not support that opinion.

An Exploratory Study Of Differential Diadochokinesis, Marie C. Crickmay

Masters Theses

Introduction

In speech man is forced to use organs, muscles and groups of muscles whose basic function is to serve other purposes, namely, to chew, to suck and swallow, movements which are relatively slow and primitive in execution. But in articulate speech it is necessary to manipulate these same organs and muscles at a faster speech, and with far greater precision than was required of them in the performance of their basic function.

An Analysis Of The Effect Of Reserpine On Adult Stutterers, Barbara Anne Mitchell

Masters Theses

Chapter I

Introduction

The Purpose of This Study

Sixteen adult subjects, four female and twelve male stutterers, participated in an eleven-weak experiment for the purpose of discovering the affects, if any, of one milligram per day of the drug reserpine on both a stutterer's speech and his attitudes toward stuttering.

A Developmental History of the Drug Reserpine (23:8-40)

Reserpine is a pure crystalline alkaloid of the rauwolfia root commonly found in India, Ceylon, Burma, the Andaman Islands, Java, and Malaya.

The plant is named for Dr. Leohnard Rauwolf of Augsburg, a German botanist, physician, and explorer, who, in a publication …

An Investigation Of The Change In The Self Concept Of Stutterer, Lois Nelson

Masters Theses

Chapter I

The Problem and Its Background

The Problem

It is the purpose of this particular study to investigate through the methodology of Q-technique the self concept of a stutterer and to determine whether having to confront one's self as a stutterer changes that concept. The study, therefore, concerns itself with the changes in the self concept of stutterers produced by altering the judgmental frame of reference. To view the problem adequately we need to survey what is known about the self concept.

Textbooks Of World History For The Senior High School, David E. Proud

Masters Theses

The Problem and Its Background

The Place of World History in Secondary Education

The study of world history has great significance in our secondary schools. In an age of persistent world crisis, the importance of the skills, information, and powers of analysis that may be acquired through the study of world history is deemed essential by many educators. The fact of its presence in the curriculum is in itself evidence that world history is considered important. In the most recent survey available from the United States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare

it was noted that world history is "quite …
