Evaluation Of A Continuous Performance Test., Sandi Louise Spera

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Continuous performance tests are frequently used to measure attention and impulsivity in children and adults. These instruments are particularly popular for assessing Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. The ecological validity of continuous performance tests has not yet been established as acceptable (Barkley, 1991). Additionally, questions remain regarding the diagnostic utility of these instruments. This study examined the ecological validity and diagnostic utility of the Conners' Continuous Performance Test (CPT; Conners, 1995). Specifically, the relationship between CPT scores and behavior in a classroom setting was investigated. The ability of the Conners' Continuous Performance Test to discriminate between children who meet DSM-IV criteria …

Graduate Record 1999: Priceless, Southwestern Oklahoma State University

SWOSU Yearbooks

The Mastercard "priceless" advertising campaign hits on a specific point — there are some items you can put a price on, and there are some you cannot. The point rings true at Southwestern Oklahoma State University. You can put a price on books, room and board, dinner, clothes. You can count the number of hours you spent studying, talking, partying, or sleeping. But if you combined all your time and money spent in Weatherford, Oklahoma, you could never put a price on it. Your four years in Southwestern are wrapped up in a combination of experiences, fun, sorrow, stress, happiness …

Ebonics: The Debate Which Never Happened, Barbara Birch

Ethnic Studies Review

The thesis of this paper is that no substantive and impartial debate about the pedagogical value of using Ebonics in the classroom could be held in the United States media because America's prescriptive attitude towards Ebonics does not allow fair and objective consideration of the issue. In presenting this theme I will discuss language ideologies in general and prescription in particular as a common attitude towards language. Prescription with respect to Ebonics usually takes the form of language prejudice. I will conclude with an introduction to one area of language planning, status planning, in which language planners try to improve …

Ivan Doig, A. Carl Bredahl

Western Writers Series Digital Editions

The big sky of the American West has the striking effect of focusing the viewer’s attention on both land and sky. On America’s Great Plains and High Desert, the sky dominates, forcing the eye away from the traditional Judeo-Christian vertical orientation and toward the horizon, generating a remarkable sense of balance. American Western narrative carries this story of balance and possibility. The Westerner finds himself accepting the landscape, indeed drawing upon it for physical and spiritual sustenance. Even the most imposing of surfaces—the landscape of eastern Utah or of the Dakota badlands—share a vulnerability with man as evidenced by erosion, …

El Postmodernismo Como Una Forma De Humanismo, Kenneth J. Gergen

Psychology Faculty Works

The impact of postmodern thougt on traditional humanistic psychology is examined, and the conclusion is reached that the effect of the postmodern argument is to undermine the grounding principles for a moral, human and generative society. However, by revisioning such concepts as agency and experience in terms of the primacy of relationship, postmodernism urges us to create multiple ways of generating integrative conversation, in a way that is congenial with the deepest hoopes of the humanistic tradition.

The Outer Limits Of Human Genetic Engineering: A Constitutional Examination Of Parents' Procreative Liberty To Genetically Enchance Their Offspring, Thomas Stuart Patterson

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

The biotechnological field of genetic engineering is advancing so rapidly that some scientists predict that within the next decade, technology will be available that will enable people to genetically engineer their offspring. This ability could be used for purposes as diverse as curing a genetic disease or selecting certain "favorable" characteristics for one's progeny.

While there seem to be some potential benefits to such technology, there are specific dangers as well. Throughout the short history of genetic engineering, scientists have found that there are sometimes unanticipated negative effects that arise with genetic manipulation. Because of this fact, some scientists are …

Service Learning Instrument-Health Professional (Sli-Hp), Tobin Lovell, Kelly White, Trent Thatcher, Amanda Mayle, Tonya Willis, Lisa Rambaldo, Katherine L. Cauley, Carla Clasen, Cheryl L. Meyer

School of Professional Psychology Faculty Publications

To investigate whether the structured and applied nature of a service learning method results in changes in knowledge, skills, and attitudes regarding working with underserved populations, the Service Learning Instrument-Health Professional (SLI-HP) was designed. This instrument measures both student experiences and changes in attitudes, skills, and knowledge resulting from participation in the service learning model. In its pilot administration, the SLI-HP was completed by 53 health profession students. No problems were found with item clarity or respondent's answering. Reliability analysis for the 23 items of the pretest yielded an alpha of 0.85. Copies of the SLP-HP pre-test and post-test are …
