More precise objectives were (1) to gain information about simulation gaming, particularly current research in the area of gaming in home economics, and (2) to develop a game for use in teaching specific behavioral objectives in the area of …


Consumer Installment Loan Risk: A Discriminant Analysis, Ronald Edward Fisher Jan 1974

Consumer Installment Loan Risk: A Discriminant Analysis, Ronald Edward Fisher

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

All lending institutions are faced with the fact that a portion of their outstanding loans will not be repaid.

The Public Relations Efforts Of South Dakota Colleges And Universities As Reflected By The Attitudes Of South Dakota High School Seniors, Daniel F. Jorgensen Jan 1974

The Public Relations Efforts Of South Dakota Colleges And Universities As Reflected By The Attitudes Of South Dakota High School Seniors, Daniel F. Jorgensen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study will concentrate on one small, yet vital, public--the public composed of high school seniors. If this public is "aware" of what the South Dakota colleges and universities have to offer, then the public relations programs of those schools are having some effect. If the students are preparing for a college career, then it is important to the future of the state's higher education that they are aware of the costs and the offerings of its schools. Daniel Gladstone, a high school senior from New Jersey, supported this thinking in a personal opinion column in "Saturday Review." He said …


A Study Of Selected Demographic Factors Associated With The Number And Characteristics Of Marriages Solemnized In South Dakota: 1960-1972, Jon Gregory Lundeen Jan 1974

A Study Of Selected Demographic Factors Associated With The Number And Characteristics Of Marriages Solemnized In South Dakota: 1960-1972, Jon Gregory Lundeen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The marriage statistics for South Dakota from 1960 to 1970 reveal that the number of marriages has steadily increased since 1960. The number of births, however, has steadily decreased in number in South Dakota since 1960. Perhaps this is understandable inasmuch as Paul H. Jacobson points out that the analysis and interpretation of marriage statistics is the least developed branch of American vital statistics. This is an important area for study, however, because any community is highly influenced by the proportion of its population that is single, married, widowed, or divorced. The marital condition of a population influences its birth …

A study of the 1970 South Dakota population was conducted to determine: (1) the extent of disadvantagement by magnitude and residence; (2) the association between the extent of disadvantagement and selected socio-economic factors; and (3) the extent to which factors explaining disadvantagement also served to predict migration based on the net migration experiences of South Dakota counties during 1960 to 1970. The county was selected as the unit of analysis. Selected data from the census were aggregated and tabulated.
