Population Change In West Africa : 1954-1972, Ndidi Odashionu Okwumaba
Population Change In West Africa : 1954-1972, Ndidi Odashionu Okwumaba
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In the light of recent concern over world population growth, it would be interesting to study to what extent West Africa as a developing area has experienced changes in fertility, mortality and natural increase. This study would be especially interesting in that developing countries like those in West Africa account for approximately two-thirds of the world's population. Students of demography generally hold that as a rural agricultural country becomes more urbanized and industrialized, a transition also occurs in the demographic process. Under the influence of modernization, death rates decline rapidly while high fertility continues, producing a rapid population growth that …

A Multi-Variate Analysis Of Selected Socio-Demographic Factors Associated With The Attitudes Of Big Stone Lake Area Residents Toward Community Services, Oscar J. Schinkel
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A research project was conducted in the Big Stone lake area. This area included Roberts and Grant Counties in South Dakota and the city of Ortonville in Minnesota. In 1969 a 2800 acre tract of land was purchased near Big Stone City, South Dakota by a consortium of three electric power companies. A 450 megawatt plant will be constructed on the site. The completion date is projected for the summer of 1975. This planned industrial facility for a relatively rural area provided an opportunity to study the effects of rural industrialization. This phase of the total research project ascertained the …

Factors Associated With Population Changes In Rural South Dakota Communities, Sidney G. Goss
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Students of demography have long been aware that populations change over time: they are dynamic. The determination and explanation of population change forms the central focus of population analysis, and the question arises as to what factors best explain observed variations in population changes occurring in South Dakota rural towns. Consequently, this study investigates the following problem. What is the association between selected demographic, geographic, economic, and social factors and the population changes that transpired from 1960 to 1970 in South Dakota incorporated places classified as rural in both 1960 and 1970? Specifically, the study attempts to determine: 1. What …

Selected Social Stratification Factors And The Self Concept As Contingencies In College Persistence And Persistence In College Program Choice, Arnold J. Menning
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This research study developed from a continuing interest by the writer in the various factors associated with student college persistence and stability of program choice. Institutions of higher learning are becoming increasingly concerned in these times of declining enrollments about the need for greater congruence between institutional planning and the services provided to the potential and enrolled student body. Relationships between selected (1) socioeconomic, academic, and self concept variables and (2) college persistence and stability of program choice were investigated in this study.

Statement of the problem. The central problem of this study was twofold: (1) to determine whether the educational research preparation offered by selected colleges and universities bore out the findings of critics, and (2) to synthesize and synergize opinions and facts regarding educational research, as expressed by men active in the field, into a flexible proposal whereby individual student's programs in research preparation could be "custom-made" to suit their most obvious research needs.

Attitudes Of Registered Nurses In Designated South Dakota Hospitals Toward Aspects Of Terminal Patient Care And Euthanasia, Sharon Ann Hofland
Attitudes Of Registered Nurses In Designated South Dakota Hospitals Toward Aspects Of Terminal Patient Care And Euthanasia, Sharon Ann Hofland
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The problem under investigation in this study is: "What are the attitudes of professional nurses in designated hospitals in South Dakota toward the practice of passive and active euthanasia, and how do these attitudes vary when controlled for selected social and institutional factors?" Research related to this problem is important in that recent permissive legislative action on the abortion issue caught the nursing profession unprepared, and it is presently attempting to establish a position. To avoid a similar situation on the euthanasia issue, data regarding the current attitudes of nurses concerning the preservation of life and the management of the …
