Models Of Shame, Family Functioning, And Psychosocial Outcomes In A College Population, Sherri Nelson Fitts
Models Of Shame, Family Functioning, And Psychosocial Outcomes In A College Population, Sherri Nelson Fitts
Open Access Dissertations
An empirical investigation of shame was conducted, using a structural equation modeling approach with a sample of 750 undergraduates. The general model being tested involved three sets of latent constructs: functioning as the independent variable, shame as the mediating variable, and five psychosocial outcomes as the dependent variables. Five models were generated, one per outcome variable. Three of the outcomes were maladaptive ones: substance use, depression, and suicide ideation. The remaining two, risk-taking propensity and achievement orientation, were more neutrally toned. It was hypothesized that family dysfunctioning would be directly related to shame; and in turn, shame would be directly …
Infared Spectral Measurement Of Space Shuttle Glow, Mark Ahmadjian
Infared Spectral Measurement Of Space Shuttle Glow, Mark Ahmadjian
Open Access Dissertations
Infrared spectral measurements of the space shuttle glow were successfully conducted during the STS-39 space shuttle mission. Analysis indicates that NO, No+, OH, and CO are among the molecules associated with the infrared glow phenomenon. During orbiter thruster firings the glow intensities in the infrared are enhanced by factors of 1Ox to 1OOx with significant changes in spectral distribution.
These measurements were obtained with the Spacecraft Kinetic Infrared Test (SKIRT) payload which included a cryogenic infrared circular variable filter (CVF) spectrometer (0.6 μm to 5.4 μm) and a number of infrared, visible, and ultraviolet radiometers (0.2 μm to …

Nutrient And Phosphorus Geochemistry In The Taunton River Estuary, Massachusetts, Joceline M. Boucher
Nutrient And Phosphorus Geochemistry In The Taunton River Estuary, Massachusetts, Joceline M. Boucher
Open Access Dissertations
Mineral equilibria and sorption reactions are often invoked as mechanisms that regulate the concentration of nutrient phosphorus (P) in estuaries, and are sometimes termed collectively as the "phosphate buffer". However, the estuarine chemistry of P is only partly known and from theory alone it is not possible to predict the reactions that occur in a particular estuary. The objective of the present study is to quantify the sorption of P on particles transported through an estuarine salinity gradient, and to evaluate the importance of sorption processes in the seasonal nutrient chemistry of the estuary.
Regionally important but largely unstudied, the …
The Role Of Working Memory In Phoneme Awareness, Bernadette F. Evans
The Role Of Working Memory In Phoneme Awareness, Bernadette F. Evans
Open Access Dissertations
The primary goals of this study were to examine the association between working memory and phoneme awareness, and to explore the relationships of these phonological processes with decoding and comprehension components of reading ability. Previously, only a few studies had examined the role of working memory in phoneme awareness, and the findings were inconclusive. A further goal of the present study was to examine whether simple phoneme awareness tasks (requiring counting or segmenting of phonemes) relate differently to reading skills than do compound phoneme awareness tasks (requiring deletion or manipulation of phonemes).
Second-grade children whose reading skills were normally distributed …
Transformational And Transactional Church Leadership Perspectives Of Pastors And Parishioners – An Extension, James L. Bray
Transformational And Transactional Church Leadership Perspectives Of Pastors And Parishioners – An Extension, James L. Bray
Open Access Dissertations
There is a gap between a theoretically ideal pastoral term (ten years) and the more frequently observed term of less than three years. This study is part of a series of studies undertaken to determine 1) whether pastors and parishioners differ in their expectations of church leadership along Transformational and Transactional lines, 2) whether that difference is associated with tension in pastor/parishioner relations, and 3) whether that tension causes pastors to have brief tenures.
This research operationalizes and extends the Transformational and Transactional leadership perspectives into a religious setting. A review of the social science literature, as well as, the …
Factors Influencing Self-Disclosure Patterns Of Black College Students, Stanley Gene Cosby
Factors Influencing Self-Disclosure Patterns Of Black College Students, Stanley Gene Cosby
Open Access Dissertations
An experiment was performed to assess how gender, college environment, examiner's race, examiner's gender, target person's race (disclosure recipient), and target person's gender influence self-disclosure. These six factors were investigated by having the participants rate their degree of willingness to self-disclose to a Black male target person, Black female target person, White male target person, or White female target person. Jourard's Self-Disclosure Questionnaire was used. It is composed of six topic areas: Attitudes, Taste, Personality, Work, Money, and Body. The subjects consisted of 240 Black (120 male and 120 female) undergraduate students. One hundred twenty of the students attended a …
