Construction And Testing Of A Marital/Couple Therapy Satisfaction Measure, Jesse Bingham May 2000

Construction And Testing Of A Marital/Couple Therapy Satisfaction Measure, Jesse Bingham

Open Access Theses

Therapy is inundated with self-report instruments/measures for clients (Corcoran & Fischer, 1987)(Touliatos, Perlmutter, & Straus, 1989); most of them focused for individual therapy. Many of these instruments are used for assessment purposes, while some others are related to outcome (Fredman & Sherman, 1987) (Corcoran & Fischer, 1987). One neglected area is that of instruments devised to measure satisfaction with specific content areas oftherapy. Another neglected area is an instrument designed specifically for marital/couple therapy. This research devised and tested a client self-report satisfaction measure specifically for couples in therapy. The items of the Marital Therapy Satisfaction Measure (MTSM) were derived …

Excessive Yawning And Ssri Therapy, Mark D. Beale, Timothy M. Murphree May 2000

Excessive Yawning And Ssri Therapy, Mark D. Beale, Timothy M. Murphree

MUSC Faculty Journal Articles

As we become more experienced with the long-term use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), more subtle side-effects may become evident. Clinicians may be aware of yawning as a side-effect of antidepressant therapy, however sparse literature exists on the topic. We present two cases in which excessive daytime yawning was associated with SSRI treatment.

Restorative Services: Inventory Of Minnesota's Restorative Services And An Examination Of Integration Of Restorative Philosophy In Service Providers' Policies And Procedures, Deanna L. Mundt Steckman May 2000

Restorative Services: Inventory Of Minnesota's Restorative Services And An Examination Of Integration Of Restorative Philosophy In Service Providers' Policies And Procedures, Deanna L. Mundt Steckman

Theses and Graduate Projects

Restorative services are offered in various settings where harm has occurred and, it has been unclear what is available in Minnesota. Minnesota, as a national leader in restorative justice, has been unable to compile a comprehensive list of restorative service providers until now. An open- and closed-ended questionnaire was sent to potential Minnesota restorative service providers. The intent was to determine what types of restorative services and models are practiced by what types of agencies, where services are provided, and to examine to what extent restorative philosophy values are integrated into agency policies. Various univariate and bivariate analysis were utilized. …


Policy Analysis Of Minnesota's Department Of Children, Families, And Learning Violence Prevention Plan, Todd S. Harvey May 2000

Policy Analysis Of Minnesota's Department Of Children, Families, And Learning Violence Prevention Plan, Todd S. Harvey

Theses and Graduate Projects

School violence has received major publicity in recent years due to several violent and premeditated school shootings that received national attention. Gallup polls have indicated over the past three years that school violence is the top concern of parents, resulting in increased public pressure upon school administrators and legislators to develop effective school violence prevention policy. This study examined the Minnesota Department of Children Families and Learning (CFL) official violence prevention plan entitled Unlearning Violence. The analysis compared Minnesota's plan with elements identified in the literature as critical and necessary to prevent violence. The results of the analysis found that …

Phytochemical Comparison Of Puccinellia Arctica To Poa Pratensis, Puccinellia Langeana, And Puccinellia Phryganodes For Evidence Of Chemical Defense, Trent Joseph Volz May 2000

Phytochemical Comparison Of Puccinellia Arctica To Poa Pratensis, Puccinellia Langeana, And Puccinellia Phryganodes For Evidence Of Chemical Defense, Trent Joseph Volz

Plant, Animal and Soil Sciences

Puccinellia arctica is a species of arctic grass that is unpalatable to Canada geese, Branta canadensis, and may be an effective and non-lethal means of controlling the growing populations of urban Canada geese that are problematic in many areas of North America. The secondary metabolite profile of P. arctica was compared to the metabolite profiles of three palatable grass species to determine the plausibility that P. arctica is chemically defended. The volatile and non-volatile secondary metabolite profiles of both P. arctica and the palatable grasses were the same. No alkoloids were detected in any of the grasses. Condensed tannin levels …


Comorbidity Of Seasonal Affective Disorders With Schizophrenia In The Extreme North, Julie Ellen Doorack May 2000

Comorbidity Of Seasonal Affective Disorders With Schizophrenia In The Extreme North, Julie Ellen Doorack

Psychology

The purpose of this study was to provide estimates of the prevalence of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) among Alaska residents with schizophrenia and to evaluate the relation of SAD symptoms to symptoms of general depression, negative schizophrenia, and alcohol abuse. Nine (33%) of the subjects exceeded cut-off criteria for SAD. Assessment of depression supported the diagnostic classification of respondents who met cut-off criteria for SAD as depressed, but also supported conceptualizations of SAD as a syndrome separate from unipolar depression. Evaluation of negative symptoms of schizophrenia validated the divergence of SAD and depression symptoms from negative symptoms. Implications of this …

"The Winter's Tale": Leontes' Derangement And The Chronotope Of Melancholy, David Houston Wood May 2000

"The Winter's Tale": Leontes' Derangement And The Chronotope Of Melancholy, David Houston Wood

English

To recent critical formulations regarding melancholy and its role in the Renaissance humoral body, this project contributes the argument that melancholy's trajectory from its natural to its unnatural state carries with it a fundamental shift in temporal-senses. I illustrate this shift through close analysis of Leontes' derangement in Shakespeare's 'The winter's tale.' Based on Renaissance physiological texts, as well as modern psychoanalytic, anthropological, and gender studies, I explore how melancholy's inherent volatility signifies the masculine anxieties of early modern English patriarchy. I argue that melancholy's bifurcated temporal-senses serve to clarify the subjectivity of Renaissancee passions.


A Toxicity Assessment Of Total Dissolved Solid Ions In Mine Effluent Using Two Common Bioassays: The 22-Hour Microtox Assay And A S. Carpricornutum Growth Assay, Jane Benton Leblond May 2000

A Toxicity Assessment Of Total Dissolved Solid Ions In Mine Effluent Using Two Common Bioassays: The 22-Hour Microtox Assay And A S. Carpricornutum Growth Assay, Jane Benton Leblond

Chemistry and Biochemistry

This research evaluated two microassays and a synthetic TDS standard to measure the effects of elevated TDS from mine effluent on biota of freshwater systems. Field samples from Red Dog and Fort Knox mines were tested on Selenastrum capricornutum and the MicroTox assay, and compared to the synthetic standard. Results indicate that the synthetic TDS standard is a poor representation of produced waters with similar total TDS concentrations. Additionally, no correlation was found between the toxicological responses of the two assays. Principle component analysis found the MicroTox assay to be most sensitive to cadmium and chloride. At concentrations present in …


Mammalian Mismatch Repair: Hotspots And Protein Complexes, Nancy Matton May 2000

Mammalian Mismatch Repair: Hotspots And Protein Complexes, Nancy Matton

Biological Sciences

Deficiencies in DNA mismatch repair have been found in hereditary cancers as well as in sporadic cancers, illustrating the importance of mismatch repair in maintaining genomic integrity. To determine if inefficient mismatch repair can contribute to hotspots of mutation, repair rates were determined 'in vivo' in mammalian cells for mismatched nucleotides located at H-ras codon 10 and compared to previously determined repair rates at a nearby activating hotspot of mutation, H-ras codon 12. Repair rates for H-ras codon 10 are significantly improved over repair rates at codon 12. This indicates that inefficiencies in mismatch repair are responsible, at least in …


Adaptation Of Engineering Education In Emerging Technological Revolution: A Review, Casmir I. Agbaraji May 2000

Adaptation Of Engineering Education In Emerging Technological Revolution: A Review, Casmir I. Agbaraji

Engineering

The future of engineering education has been a subject of concern in past years. There is no doubt that changes are needed to keep abreast with the new tools of technology and business, and to attract students. The planning of curricula should be governed by the definition of an engineer as the creator for public goods and by the demands of the industry. The tools that were available for engineering education in the past, those that are being presently used, and the techniques that dominate in the twenty-first century are analyzed. The problems associated with the new engineering education are …
