Reactions To Personality Test Feedback As A Function Of Attribution (Weiner, Locus, Stability, Controllability)., Daniel Eric Rubanowitz Jan 1985

Reactions To Personality Test Feedback As A Function Of Attribution (Weiner, Locus, Stability, Controllability)., Daniel Eric Rubanowitz

Theses and Dissertations

The literature on Weiner's (1979) model of attribution, attribution tendencies of therapists and clients, and the Barnum effect was discussed and integrated. An experiment was conducted in which the Barnum effect was investigated as a function of attribution. Subjects took a battery of personality tests that was composed of measures which previous research has related to the Barnum effect or to attributional styles. Later, subjects received handwritten personality interpretations, purportedly based on their test results and supposedly derived by a clinical psychologist. The feedback contained "Barnum" statements which indicated that the subject had decision making difficulties. In the feedback, subjects …

A Genetic, Ultrastructural, And Tissue Culture Study Of Five Embryo-Lethal Maize Mutants (Desk, Developmental)., Janice Kay Clark Jan 1985

A Genetic, Ultrastructural, And Tissue Culture Study Of Five Embryo-Lethal Maize Mutants (Desk, Developmental)., Janice Kay Clark

Theses and Dissertations

The genetics and development of 5 embryo-lethal maize mutants defective in early embryogenesis were studied by genetic, histological, ultrastructural, and tissue culture techniques. The mutants examined were cp*-E1113A (dek22) on 1L, dcr*-E1428 (dek23) on 2L, rgh*-E1210, fl*-E1253B, and cp*-E1399A. They were found to be non-allelic. Long term studies of chromosome arm location by the Twaxy translocation stocks and mapping of cp*-E1113A and dcr*-E1428 with multiple linkage marker stocks were initiated. Three mutants lacked leaf primordia at kernel maturity, while two made leaf primordia but were unable to germinate. Embryos of cp*-E1113A became blocked at the transition stage but remained morphologically …

An Electrochemical Investigation Of The Reductive Carbon-Oxygen Bond Cleavage Reactions For Some Model Ether Compounds (Intramolecular Cyclization, Phenyl Halide Reductions, Radical Anion Dimerization)., Miles Duane Koppang Jan 1985

An Electrochemical Investigation Of The Reductive Carbon-Oxygen Bond Cleavage Reactions For Some Model Ether Compounds (Intramolecular Cyclization, Phenyl Halide Reductions, Radical Anion Dimerization)., Miles Duane Koppang

Theses and Dissertations

The radical anions of 2, 3, and 4-cyanoanisole and 2 and 4-cyanodiphenyl ether have been electrochemically generated and shown to react by a variety of pathways in dry N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The 2-cyanoanisole radical anion dimerizes (k = 320 M('-1) s('-1)) to a dimeric dianion which undergoes carbon-oxygen bond cleavage (k = 0.019 s('-1)) to 2-cyanophenoxide, methide, and 2-cyanoanisole. The 3-cyanoanisole radical anion is relatively stable (t(, 1/2) > 10('3) s). The 4-cyanoanisole radical anion undergoes unimolecular fragmentation (k = 7 s('-1)) to yield 4-cyanophenoxide and methyl radical. The radical anion of 4-cyanodiphenyl ether undergoes dimerization (k = 110 M('-1) s('-1)) to …


The Relationship Between Client-Therapist Mental Health Value Similarity And Psychotherapy Outcome., Randall Scott Cheloha Jan 1985

The Relationship Between Client-Therapist Mental Health Value Similarity And Psychotherapy Outcome., Randall Scott Cheloha

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between client-therapist pretherapy similarity on mental health values and psychotherapy outcome. Previous outcome research has examined client-therapist similarity on values-in-general but neglected the study of mental health values. Mental health values are defined as a subset of values-in-general, those concerned with judgments of good or poor mental health. A sample of outpatients (N = 60) and their therapists (N = 28) completed the Mental Health Values Questionnaire (MHVQ; Tyler, Clark, Olson, Klapp, and Cheloha, 1983) as a measure of mental health values. The MHVQ consists of eight scales: (a) Self-Acceptance, …


Science Laboratory Equipment In North Dakota High Schools During 1954-1984, Including Effects Of Federal Funds Authorized In Title Iii Of Public Law 85-864 (National Defense Education Act (Ndea), Elementary And Secondary Education Act (Esea), Pl85-864)., Patricia Andrea Giese Jan 1985

Science Laboratory Equipment In North Dakota High Schools During 1954-1984, Including Effects Of Federal Funds Authorized In Title Iii Of Public Law 85-864 (National Defense Education Act (Ndea), Elementary And Secondary Education Act (Esea), Pl85-864)., Patricia Andrea Giese

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to analyze information about science laboratory equipment in North Dakota high schools during 1954-1984 and to determine if past experiences and present conditions warrant new federal aid to schools for purchasing science laboratory equipment. A history was written about all federal legislation funding school science laboratory equipment and about the administration of funds from that legislation allocated to the North Dakota state education agency, the Department of Public Instruction (DPI). Most of the federal funds used for school science laboratory equipment in North Dakota were authorized by Congress under Title III of Public Law …


Novel Antiinflammatory Compounds: Copper- And Manganese - Ethylenediamine - Diacetic Acid Complexes., Bernice February Katz Jan 1985

Novel Antiinflammatory Compounds: Copper- And Manganese - Ethylenediamine - Diacetic Acid Complexes., Bernice February Katz

Theses and Dissertations

Copper and manganese complexes of bridged ethylene derivatives of twenty physiological amino acids were synthesized, and tested for their ability to quench superoxide and antiinflammatory activity for use as drugs for rheumatoid arthritis. The synthesis was accomplished by nucleophilic substitution of ethylene dibromide by the amino group of the amino acids. The derivatized amino acid complexes of copper that showed the greatest activity were leucine, alanine, serine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, tyrosine, arginine and glutamine. Valine, isoleucine and threonine ethylene copper complexes showed low reactivity. The glycine complex is unreactive. The manganese complexes showed reactivity at a concentration of a factor of …


Development And Preliminary Validation Of An Instrument Measuring Four Cognitive And Affective Psychological Dimensions (Hemispheric, Specialization, Brain, Laterality)., Thomas Richard O'Connell Jan 1985

Development And Preliminary Validation Of An Instrument Measuring Four Cognitive And Affective Psychological Dimensions (Hemispheric, Specialization, Brain, Laterality)., Thomas Richard O'Connell

Theses and Dissertations

The primary purpose of this study was to construct four relatively independent subscales measuring psychological correlates of brain laterality, namely, control-spontaneity, anxiety, analytic-impressionistic cognition, and verbal-nonverbal cognition. The selected trait dimensions, and the items to tap them, were derived largely from Tucker's (1981) and Tucker and Williamson's (1984) discussions of asymmetric cognitive-attentional and affective processes and from Shapiro's (1965) clinical formulation of obsessive and hysteric personality styles.A Deductive-Inductive (Burisch, 1978, 1984) test construction strategy was used, involving both rational and statistical procedures. On the basis of rational judgment, a priori definitions of the four trait constructs were articulated and a …
