Behavioral Aspects Of Southwest Michigan Opilionids, Wolfgang C. Schroeter Apr 1977

Behavioral Aspects Of Southwest Michigan Opilionids, Wolfgang C. Schroeter

Masters Theses

Introduction

Opilionids (Arachnida: Opiliones) are arachnids that have such descriptive common names as harvestmen or daddy longlegs. In the summer and early autumn opilionids become a conspicuous component of the invertebrate fauna; however, as common as these animals are, little attention has been paid to their behavior. Most published research on opilionids deals with their taxonomy.

The intraspecific interactions of opilionids is a significant area or ethology that needs careful examination. Intraspecific interactions fall into three categories reproductive, aggressive, and cooperative behaviors. A knowledge of the reproductive behavior of opilionids is essential for a complete picture or the evolution of …

A Cohort Analysis Of Juvenile Probationers From The Kalamazoo County Juvenile Court, 1971, Karl B. Kucab Apr 1977

A Cohort Analysis Of Juvenile Probationers From The Kalamazoo County Juvenile Court, 1971, Karl B. Kucab

Masters Theses

Data on 171 juveniles placed on probation in 1971 was compiled and analyzed. Thirteen independent and six dependent variables were tested bivariately and multivariately. The recidivism rate for the cohort was also determined.

This was the first analysis of the court's probation service. It served to supply the court with three "measures" of recidivism, a "Delinquency Seriousness Index," and an adult follow-up of the cohort.

Results showed an effectiveness rate of 60.25%. In addition, 13 of the 78 hypotheses advanced were accepted and four significant predictor models were constructed. "Early age at onset" of delinquency, a familiar predictor of recidivism, …

Familial Factors Influencing Female Transsexualism, Teresa Louise Buck Jan 1977

Familial Factors Influencing Female Transsexualism, Teresa Louise Buck

Masters Theses

A clinical survey of eight clinicians, drawing from their experiences with thirteen cases, was conducted to explore familial influences on the formation or maintenance of gender dysphoria in females so as to result in transsexualism. In preparation for disclosing and discussing these findings three areas are reviewed: (1) historical references to transsexualism from ancient and modern cultures; (2) differential definitions of transvestism, homosexuality, and transsexualism; and (3) theoretical perspectives on the etiology and phenomenology of female transsexualism.

The clinical survey did not provide sufficient multi-generational family material to effectively assess the influence of the family beyond the nuclear family. Some …

Jacobs High School Instructional Materials Center Policy And Procedure Handbook, Kenneth Gene Felgenhour Jan 1977

Jacobs High School Instructional Materials Center Policy And Procedure Handbook, Kenneth Gene Felgenhour

Masters Theses

The Purpose of the study was to design a handbook containing objectives, policies, procedures and rules for the instructional media program at H. D. Jacobs High School. A media staff has the imperative charge to set up its facility and make sure that it runs smoothly. This challenge was met at this high school to a certain extent, but the smoothness or professional element was lacking. The efficiency of operation is the premise of concern with which the policy-and-procedure handbook deals.

The ideas for this handbook have been compiled from years of visiting libraries and media centers. While visiting libraries …

The Three-Dimensional Image Of Chance, Calvin Alexander Mcfarlane Jan 1977

The Three-Dimensional Image Of Chance, Calvin Alexander Mcfarlane

Masters Theses

In order to create a work of art that has, for an unknown observer, as great a variety of meanings and interpretations as possible; the work must be of the sort that will allow any random observer to project their own experience into the work as its meaning and/or interpretation. The work of art created must present to the viewer a rich experience of mutually exclusive associations. For the work to be unlimited in associations, it must be free from any intentionally representative imagery on the part of the artist. In other words, the work should be abstract to the …
