The Effects Of Physical Practice, Mental Practice And Mental-Physical Practice On The Learning Of Selected Basic Tumbling Stunts, Norma Boetel Jan 1965

The Effects Of Physical Practice, Mental Practice And Mental-Physical Practice On The Learning Of Selected Basic Tumbling Stunts, Norma Boetel

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of physical practice, mental practice, and mental-physical practice upon the learning of selected basic tumbling stunts. The subjects chosen were 21 volunteer women from the required physical education classes at South Dakota State University. The 21 women were placed by a table of random numbers into a physical practice group, a mental practice group, and a mental-physical practice group. The experimental groups were given tumbling instructions by the author three times per week. The first meeting of each group was devoted to instruction and an explanation of the factors relative …


Turbulent Mixing And Heat Exchange In A Parallel Stream Of Air, Tek Chand Goel Jan 1965

Turbulent Mixing And Heat Exchange In A Parallel Stream Of Air, Tek Chand Goel

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Turbulent mixing of air, gases of different densities, and gases of different kinds are of fundamental importance to scientists and mathematicians, and are of practical importance to engineers. Turbulence as it occurs in nature is of mysterious nature, and there are insurmountable difficulties in completely analyzing the mechanism by which it is produced. Recently with the availability of hot-wire anemometer on a commercial basis, we have been able to investigate turbulence phenomena that previously were confined to more specialized research centers. When parallel streams of air, divided by a flat plate, are allowed to mix, the mixing boundaries are extensions …


Mathematical Method For Determining Stable Geometric Configurations In Aromatic Hydrocarbon Molecules, Richard A. Marsh Jan 1965

Mathematical Method For Determining Stable Geometric Configurations In Aromatic Hydrocarbon Molecules, Richard A. Marsh

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

We are concerned with determining the stable geometric configurations of aromatic hydrocarbon molecules. This is an important problem since the molecule’s physical and chemical properties are dependent on the way in which different groups of the molecule are spatially oriented. Many symmetric aromatic molecules with attached phenyl groups avoid the planar structure which would maximize the resonance energy because of steric hindrance. Energy considerations indicate that the best way for reducing the steric interactions is for one or more of the phenyl groups to be rotated out of the plane of the molecule about the bond joining it to the …


An Analysis Of The Comparative Reading Times For 11-Pica And 15-Pica Copy, Jack Wesley Nuckols Jan 1965

An Analysis Of The Comparative Reading Times For 11-Pica And 15-Pica Copy, Jack Wesley Nuckols

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Research concerning reading speed, type size, leading, and line width has been conducted in a systematic way for the past 50 years. The Minnesota eye-movement camera was used to reveal the specific patterns of eye movements involved in reading optimal versus non-optimal lines widths. In contradiction to Tinker and Paterson, Matthew Luckiesh and Frank Moss concluded that the readability of 10-point Text type with 2 points of leading diminishes as the length of line is increased from 13 to about 21 picas; and that further increases in the line length result in less important changes in readability. Leading (spacing between …


Student Attitudes Toward The Printing Industry In Two Chicago Area High Schools, Frank Arthur Ouseley Jan 1965

Student Attitudes Toward The Printing Industry In Two Chicago Area High Schools, Frank Arthur Ouseley

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Before considering the importance of attitudinal measurement it would be helpful to define what an attitude is and subsequently how this definition relates to the measurement of attitudes. Ingles, after an intensive investigation concerning the fruitfulness of teaching history, concluded that the attitudes developed through the study of history are probably considerable more important than the specific knowledge that the student has acquired during his training. The implications from his rather generalized interpretations are of unlimited importance. Another reason why attitudinal measurement is important concerns the effects which attitudes have on the learning process. Learning takes place only when information …


Ability Of Consumers To Ascertain "Quality" In Printing, Lawrence E. Mades Jan 1965

Ability Of Consumers To Ascertain "Quality" In Printing, Lawrence E. Mades

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Before considering the measurement of quality printing it would be helpful to develop a clear concept of just what quality means to the average printer. To many printers the word “quality” is a crutch on which they lean for support, and it is not a goal toward which they strive. An often heard definition for quality in industry is “A means of manufacturing, to a consistent standard, the lowest quality product which the public will accept.” Whether a printing firm is large or small, it cannot avoid being concerned with quality level and quality variation. Since all defects or variations …


An Inquiry Into The Acceptability Of Unjustified Composition And Omission Of Column Rules To Newspaper Readers, Karl E. Ruthenbeck Jan 1965

An Inquiry Into The Acceptability Of Unjustified Composition And Omission Of Column Rules To Newspaper Readers, Karl E. Ruthenbeck

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

For several decades every conceivable cost item in newspaper production has been scrutinized to squeeze out a few pennies of savings here and there. Page shrinkage has been increased, column measures reduced, margins out, composing machines speeded up, teletype setters and computers introduced all for the purpose of cutting costs. Concurrently with the need for reduced costs, some editors feel the need for increased readability and a change in the appearance of their newspapers. Experimentation has been taking place in using the unjustified line (uneven right hand margins) as a means of moving toward the objectives of lower costs and …


A Study Of The Food Practices, Economic Position, And Conception Of Health On The Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, Kenneth H. Skogen Jan 1965

A Study Of The Food Practices, Economic Position, And Conception Of Health On The Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, Kenneth H. Skogen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The Teton Dakota Indians of the northern Great Plains have stirred the imagination of the people in America since they were first encountered by the early explorers. The frontiersmen found them living in the woodlands of the western Great Lakes where they were settled farmers. A century of warfare between the Chippewa and the Dakotas finally came to an end when the former group had occupied the woodland farms of northern Minnesota and the latter had migrated on to the plains. After wandering and fighting as they retreated westward, the Teton Dakotas were gradually transformed from peaceful woodsmen into skilled …


An Investigation Of 10 Selected Weekly And Small Daily Newspapers Pinted By Offset Lithography And Methods And Equipment Used In Their Production, Charles Allen Ridgeway Jan 1965

An Investigation Of 10 Selected Weekly And Small Daily Newspapers Pinted By Offset Lithography And Methods And Equipment Used In Their Production, Charles Allen Ridgeway

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The subject of offset (lithography), whether applied to commercial printing or newspaper production, is a fascinating one. The fascination stems from the fact that offset is perhaps a misunderstood method of producing printing or newspapers. Resistance to change has caused much of the misunderstanding. The principle on which offset is based is the mutual repellence of water and greasy substances. The rapid strides of offset as a printing process have resulted from improvements in materials and equipment. Improvements have been made in film, paper, chemicals, cameras, presses, and in more scientific knowledge of the process. Innovations to the letterpress method …


An Analysis Of The Production Output Difference Between An 11-Pica And A 15-Pica Line Width, Albert George Leicht Jan 1965

An Analysis Of The Production Output Difference Between An 11-Pica And A 15-Pica Line Width, Albert George Leicht

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Considerable research has been done on newspapers in the areas of type sizes, typefaces, leading between lines, readability, legibility and column widths. Tinker and Paterson conducted another study to determine the influence of line width and leading on the speed of reading 9-point type. The results indicate that optimal rate of reading occurs with line widths of 14 to 30 picas and with 1 to 4 pints leading. The Tinker and Paterson studies dealt with reading speed, the Murphy study concerned the proportion of readers who actually read the stories in the alternate forms, and the Hvistendahl study concerned reader …


Evidence Of Socio-Economic Classlessness In The Major Fiction Of Daniel Defoe, Nicholas J. Goergen Jan 1965

Evidence Of Socio-Economic Classlessness In The Major Fiction Of Daniel Defoe, Nicholas J. Goergen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This investigation will consider the thesis that the fiction of Daniel Defoe contains definite indications that he idealizes communism in the sense that he seems to uphold a system in which goods are owned in common and are available to all as needed. Previous criticism of the work of Defoe has considered the apparent dichotomy between his presentations of seemingly virtuous moralizing alongside mercenary capitalism. The critics of my acquaintance discuss these separately and are apparently unable to correlate Defoe’s morality with his economics, except, perhaps, as ironic device. Instead, this thesis will submit that Defoe’s moral and economic beliefs …
