The Historical Development Of Higher Education In Bermuda, Inez E. Browne-Dixon

Dissertations

Phenomenal, pervasive, and fundamental change characterize the 1980s, often threatening to lead to entropy and decay.

Problem. A diligent search revealed a great lack of systematic studies on the development of higher education in Bermuda. There is a need to select data on higher education and present them in a comprehensible format. This study sought to fill that need. …

Sixty-four examiners, thirty-two practicing psychologists and thirty-two graduate students of psychology, were randomly assigned to score the responses on one of the tapes. Sixteen …
