Salinity And Waterlogging On The Esperance Downs Research Station, D J. Mcfarlane, A T. Ryder

Resource management technical reports

Details the situation on the station so that the demonstration and research programs can be designed and the effect of the treatments assessed. Past work on the station has been briefly summarised and the results of geophysical surveys and additional drilling are given. Surveys of electromagnetic terrain conductivities have shown where salinity is most serious at present. The most deeply penetrating method may have identified areas likely to developing salinity in future.

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purposes of this study were: (1) to determine a definition for a literature-based reading program and a definition for a literature-based basal reading program; (2) to identify eight basic components from literature-based reading programs which have been developed and are currently being used in the Province of Nova Scotia, Canada; the Province of Victoria, Australia; and in Wisconsin and California in the United States; and (3) to determine how closely the three commercially produced literature-based basal reading series securing the top sales in Indiana during the 1989-1995 reading textbook adoption period replicate these components specifically in grade one and …

Factors Associated With Marital Adjustment In Remarriage, Randall David Martin

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The empirical study of marital adjustment in remarriage has been inadequate to date. Much of the research in this field has lacked scientific rigor in terms of: (1) studying remarried families without differentiating between the various subtypes of stepfamilies; (2) utilizing non-standardized instruments to measure variables; and (3) omitting certain independent variables from consideration. This study addressed all three of the above concerns. It focused on one subtype of remarried families: simple stepfather families. It utilized standardized psychometric measurement devices. Lastly, it focused on several independent variables which had not been adequately studied. The sample consisted of sixty-four remarried females. …

There is no universally …

Laser Spectroscopy Of Molecular Ions In An Ion Beam, Jun Li

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

The operation of a coaxial ion beam/laser beam experimental apparatus is described, in which an ion beam is overlapped by a laser beam and the ions are Doppler-tuned into resonance. The experimental apparatus is suitable for the study of both positive and negative ions. Resonant transitions are reported in C{dollar}\sb2\sp{-}{dollar} and in CO{dollar}\sp{+}{dollar}. In C{dollar}\sb2\sp{-}{dollar}, a two-photon resonant photodetachment experiment was performed, with detection of fast neutral C{dollar}\sb2{dollar}. The experiment yields a measurement of the R(10) line of the 1-0 band in the B-X electronic transition. In CO{dollar}\sp{+}{dollar}, the blended Q(1) and R(12) lines of the A-X electronic transition were …

The Effects Of Prosocial Skills Training On Anger Management Of Aggressive Adult Inmates, Marcus Read Forbes

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The effectiveness of prosocial skills training groups, which focused on helping aggressive, male, adult inmates manage anger, was investigated. Forty-eight inmates, defined as aggressive, participated in treatment. A random sample, pretest-posttest-follow-up, treatment control group design was utilized. The eight-week treatment focused on variables of social skill development, anger perceptions, and anger behaviors. Participants' responses to the Social Skills Inventory (Riggio, 1989) and the State Trait Anger Expression Inventory (Spielberger, 1988) were analyzed, along with case counselor responses to the Correctional Adjustment Checklist (Quay, 1984). Results indicated that prosocial skills training had no significant differential effect upon participants when compared to …

British Romanticism And Composition Theory: The Traditions And Value Of Romantic Rhetoric, Sherrie L. Gradin

Doctoral Dissertations

My study examines, through the philosophies and writings of the British Romantic poets, particularly those of Wordsworth and Coleridge, their beliefs about education, their theories on composing, and their interaction with the political and social climate as they relate to current expressivist rhetorical theories and pedagogies. I explore the ways in which Romantic assumptions surface in subsequent philosophers, educators, and rhetoricians such as Matthew Arnold, John Stuart Mill, and John Dewey, and more recently, Ann Berthoff, Donald Murray, and Peter Elbow. I argue that like the Romantics, current expressivists are interested in cultivating an imaginative intellect in their writing students. …

Distance Function Constructions In Topological Spaces, Laurie Jean Sawyer

Doctoral Dissertations

This work investigates the use of distance function constructions in the study of semimetrizable spaces, especially as this relates to developable, K-semimetrizable and 1-continuously semimetrizable spaces.

A distance function for X is a nonnegative, symmetric, real-valued function d: X x X $\to$ $\IR$ such that d(p,q) = 0 iff p = q. A distance function d is developable iff, when d(x$\sb{\rm n}$,p) $\to$ 0 and d(y$\sb{\rm n}$,p) $\to$ 0, then d(x$\sb{\rm n}$,y$\sb{\rm n}$) $\to$ 0; and d is a K-distance function iff whenever d(x$\sb{\rm n}$,p) $\to$ 0, d(y$\sb{\rm n}$,q) $\to$ 0 and d(x$\sb{\rm n}$,y$\sb{\rm n}$) $\to$ 0, then p = …
