Pearl Buck: A Cultural Bridge Across The Pacific., Kang Liao

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

Pearl Buck was the first American woman writer who won the Nobel Prize for literature. However, she has been largely neglected by American critics since 1940. She was severely criticized in China in the 30s and 60s. Was she overestimated at first? Did she misrepresent China? What are the main values of her literary works? Are they still valuable today? This dissertation applies the reception theory to analyzing the reasons of her early and the ensuing neglect of her works by the critics, historicizes the significance of her function in changing the American image of the Chinese people, uses the …

An Investigation Of Within-Evaluation Markers For Detecting Malingered Memory Impairment., Grant Loren Iverson

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

Neuropsychologists frequently are called upon to evaluate patients in a medicolegal context. An important part of these evaluations is determining whether the patient is being honest and forthright in his presentation of symptoms and in his test performance, or whether the patient is deliberately exaggerating his deficits via malingering. The purpose of this investigation was to examine the efficacy of using the Recognition Memory Test (RMT), Digit Span Test (WAIS-R), and Knox Cube Test as markers for malingered memory deficits. These tests were all designed to measure some aspect of attention and memory, not to assess non-optimal test performance. However, …

Inter-Regional Tax Incidence With Public Services: A General Equilibrium Analysis., Sudha Subrahmanyam Jan 1993

Inter-Regional Tax Incidence With Public Services: A General Equilibrium Analysis., Sudha Subrahmanyam

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

My research investigates the consequences for equity between and within the regions of an economy when one region alters its taxing policy, and the tax change results in a corresponding change in public expenditure. In contrast to extant theory, I incorporate the effects of an accompanying change in public expenditure on tax incidence in my analysis. I demonstrate that actual tax incidence may be quite different from current predictions because the pattern of change in public expenditure has a significant effect on the ultimate incidence of a tax change. I develop a methodological framework to identify the impact of tax …
