What Goes Along With The Words, Louis Foley

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

All of us have mannerisms to some extent, Seemingly by compulsion, We habitually do certain peculiar things unconsciously for no apparent reason; we just keep on doing them. Mannerisms are not necessarily unpleasant or annoying to others. They may pass almost unnoticed, or even be subtly attractive as somehow an inseparable part of an individual personality. When they are conspicuous, however, they tend to distract attention, and when frequently repeated they may become insufferable.

The Influence Of Visual Perception On The Academic Performance Of The Mentally Retarded, Shirley A. Knapp

Masters Theses

Visual perception refers to the process of receiving and analyzing sensory information through the medium of the eye. The report extensively surveys literature concerning the developmental processes and characteristics of visual perception. The research tended to show a relationship between visual perceptual maturity and academic achievement. The prominent remedial programs were discussed in conjunction with supporting or disputing research concerning the alleged benefits. Finally, studies dealing with the visual perception of the mentally retarded were proffered.

A research project was conducted with mentally retarded and non-retarded subjects, matched according to mental age. The Frostig Developmental Test of Visual Perception was …

An Analysis Of Polydipsia As Produced By A Multiple Schedule, Joseph J. Vaal

Masters Theses

Polydipsia and contrast effects are two behavioral phenomena produced by manipulations of the reinforcement schedules under which the organisms are behaving. The present study created a complex situation by subjecting rats to a multiple reinforcement schedule. This situation allowed simultaneous examination of both operant and induced drinking behavior. Furthermore, this situation allowed for an examination of possible schedule interactions with respect to the induced and operant drinking behaviors.

It was expected that the results of this study would show that behavioral contrast effects could be obtained in a polydipsic situation. Even though the expected results were not obtained, it is …

Stimulus Control And The Effects Of Stimulus Change On Aggression In Children, Marilyn S. Arnett

Masters Theses

Five children has the opportunity at programmed intervals to shock a rat during daily 10 min sessions. An aggression response was defined as producing rat shock and reinforcement was not made contingent on any response within the experimental chamber. Response increment occurred for all subjects upon introduction of a visual cue which signaled shock period onset. A discrimination between shock and no-shock periods developed for all subjects and response increment occurred for all subjects due to a change in the manipulanda. Two subjects who initially preferred shocking the rat, also produced visual feedback when available, although average shock rate was …

The unit discussed here is company C, 156th Signal Battalion (CA), Michigan Army National Guard, located in Kalamazoo, MI.

The paper begins with a brief history of Company C from its conception in 1859 to the Berlin Crises Mobilization in 1961. The mobilization itself and what happened to Company C during 1961 and 1962 is covered in a …

A Comparison Of Three Measures Of Stimulation Seeking, John L. Kasten

Masters Theses

An attempt was made to determine the comparability and construct validity of three instruments: the Sensation Seeking Scale (Zuckermsn, Kolin, Price & Zoob, 1964); the Change Seeker Index (Garlington & Shimota, 1964); and the Similes Preference Inventory (Pearson & Maddi, 1966). These instruments, and a measure of drug use which was constructed by the investigator, were administered to 52 college students and 23 high school students. Product-moment correlations were calculated among these instruments and between each instrument and age, sex, marital status and amount of education. Several sets of partial correlations were, also calculated.

A substantial correlation was found between …
