A Sociometric Study Of Social Process And Structure With A Selected Sample Of Rural Youth, Wendell D. Wessman

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Two segments of the American population are the objects of special concern and study at the present time. This study is focused on the other end of the continuum, on the teen-ager who is struggling through the mist and dew of the morning of his day. Possessed of “youth, speed, dexterity, physical strength and endurance,” he, too, finds himself looking for a job. These hundreds of thousands of boys and girls can only expect monotonous and intermittent employment, unless they are assisted in developing the skills which available jobs require. The estimated loss to the economy of these unemployed youth …

An Inquiry Concerning Health As A Status-Role, Robert S. Redhead Feb 1964

An Inquiry Concerning Health As A Status-Role, Robert S. Redhead

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

An individual’s conception of his health may be influenced by social as well as physical and psychological considerations. The problem under investigation is to determine whether certain social bariables are related to conception of health and, if they are, to describe a health status-role suggested by the variables considered. Health is no longer considered to be exclusively a biological phenomenon. It is influenced by psychological and sociological forces as well as physical ones. The layman may accept the belief that a person’s attitude or his personality may affect how he feels, but he might question a statement about an individual’s …

Underemployment And Labor Force Reserves On Southeastern South Dakota Farms, Donald J. Biggar

Feasible alternatives for farm operators and for community development planning groups will be discussed. Present and proposed national agricultural policies will be examined as they apply to the problem and as they are …

The Relationship Of Selected Characteristics Of Farm Operators To Attitudes Toward Retirement, Wayne L. Larson Jan 1963

The Relationship Of Selected Characteristics Of Farm Operators To Attitudes Toward Retirement, Wayne L. Larson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A recent development in the social and economic history of the United States is the evolvement of an institutionalized stage of retirement in the life cycle of the average worker. In the early part of the twentieth century, retirement was not considered a major problem in our society. However, the number and proportion of people surviving to “post-retirement” age has been increasing steadily in both the rural and urban population. This is due, primarily, to declining mortality. Declining fertility, prior to World War II, has also had some effect on the increase in the proportion of people over 65 years …

A Study Of The Present Physical Education Facilities, Equipment And Curriculum For Seventh And Eighth Grade Girls At Freeman Davis School In Mobridge, South Dakota, And Recommendations For An Improved Program, Betty Ann Shay

Mobridge is a progressive city and has shown its interest in the physical and social well-being of its citizens. Physical education is an integral and vital part of education. It is necessary to evaluate any existing program of physical education periodically to reexamine the aims and objectives and to make certain that the needs, interests, and abilities of individual students are actually …
