The Discourse Of Denigration And The Creation Of “Other”, Joshua Miller, Gerald Schamess Jan 2000

The Discourse Of Denigration And The Creation Of “Other”, Joshua Miller, Gerald Schamess

School for Social Work: Faculty Publications

This paper attempts to reduce the distance between intellectual frameworks that inform different fields of social work practice by exploring the relationships between intrapsychic mechanisms, family dynamics, small group processes and such society wide phenomena as public denigration, scapegoating, and the systematic oppression of politically targeted population subgroups. Clinical theories are used to explore disturbing social trends such as the redistribution of wealth while cutting services to the needy, the growth of prisons and disproportionate numbers of incarcerated people of color, societal retreat from social obligation and commitment and divisive political rhetoric. Suggestions are made about how clinical social workers …

Historic Preservation, Urban Revitalization And Value Controversies In New Orleans' French Quarter, John Foley, Mickey Lauria Jan 2000

Historic Preservation, Urban Revitalization And Value Controversies In New Orleans' French Quarter, John Foley, Mickey Lauria

College of Urban and Public Affairs (CUPA) Working Papers, 1991-2000

The primary objective of this research is to examine the relationship between transit availability and automobile ownership of households, with special reference to the low-income population of Los Angeles. National data show that during the last few decades there has been a significant increase in automobile ownership among low-income households in general (Bureau of Transportation Statistics, 1990; Millar, Morrison, and Vyas, 1986). In fact, among all income groups, the increase in auto ownership has been the highest for the lowest income group (Millar, Morrison, and Vyas, 1986). Since low-income households have traditionally constituted a large segment of the transit market, …


Mapping The Zone Of Eye-Height Utility For Seated And Standing Observers, Maryjane Wraga, Dennis R. Proffitt Jan 2000

Mapping The Zone Of Eye-Height Utility For Seated And Standing Observers, Maryjane Wraga, Dennis R. Proffitt

Psychology: Faculty Publications

In a series of experiments, we delimited a region within the vertical axis of space in which eye height (EH) information is used maximally to scale object heights, referred to as the "zone of eye height utility" (Wraga, 1999b Journal of Experimental Psychology, Human Perception and Performance 25 518-530). To test the lower limit of the zone, linear perspective (on the floor) was varied via introduction of a false perspective (FP) gradient while all sources of EH information except linear perspective were held constant. For seated (experiment 1a) observers, the FP gradient produced overestimations of height for rectangular objects up …


Perception-Action Dissociations Of A Walkable Müller-Lyer Configuration, Maryjane Wraga, Sarah H. Creem, Dennis R. Proffitt Jan 2000

Perception-Action Dissociations Of A Walkable Müller-Lyer Configuration, Maryjane Wraga, Sarah H. Creem, Dennis R. Proffitt

Psychology: Faculty Publications

These studies examined the role of spatial encoding in inducing perception-action dissociations in visual illusions. Participants were shown a large-scale Müller-Lyer configuration with hoops as its tails. In Experiment 1, participants either made verbal estimates of the extent of the Müller-Lyer shaft (verbal task) or walked the extent without vision, in an offset path (blind-walking task). For both tasks, participants stood a small distance away from the configuration, to elicit object-relative encoding of the shaft with respect to its hoops. A similar illusion bias was found in the verbal and motoric tasks. In Experiment 2, participants stood at one endpoint …


Updating Displays After Imagined Object And Viewer Rotations, Maryjane Wraga, Sarah H. Creem, Dennis R. Proffitt Jan 2000

Updating Displays After Imagined Object And Viewer Rotations, Maryjane Wraga, Sarah H. Creem, Dennis R. Proffitt

Psychology: Faculty Publications

Six experiments compared spatial updating of an array after imagined rotations of the array versus viewer. Participants responded faster and made fewer errors in viewer tasks than in array tasks while positioned outside (Experiment 1) or inside (Experiment 2) the array. An apparent array advantage for updating objects rather than locations was attributable to participants imagining translations of single objects rather than rotations of the array (Experiment 3). Superior viewer performance persisted when the array was reduced to 1 object (Experiment 4); however, an object with a familiar configuration improved object performance somewhat (Experiment 5). Object performance reached near-viewer levels …

Parallels In Predicting Dangerousness--What Price Security?, Vanessa Merton, Adele Bernhard Jan 2000

Parallels In Predicting Dangerousness--What Price Security?, Vanessa Merton, Adele Bernhard

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

One question is: why should an employer have any duty to intervene, respond, or warn when an employee is deemed “dangerous”? What expertise in making these predictions can your average business manager bring to the table? As lawyers we tend never to look at law that is more than a week old. Similarly, scientists prefer not to rely on science that is more than a few months old. Yet, here is an article written almost 20 years ago when I was a young Associate for Law at the Hastings Center for a symposium honoring the great forensic psychiatrist Dr. Jonas …

Bolivar: "Killer" Elephant Or Abused Pachyderm?, Harold E. Lippman Jan 2000

Bolivar: "Killer" Elephant Or Abused Pachyderm?, Harold E. Lippman

Elephant

“Bolivar” was a male Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) which was presented to the Philadelphia Zoo in 1888 by Adam Forepaugh and lived there until 1908. Bolivar was known as a “killer” because he killed at least two men, one of whom offered the elephant a lighted end of a cigar and his trunk was badly burned. The man tried to repeat the “cute joke” and Bolivar grabbed him and crushed his skull. The elephant was kept in confinement, apparently in conditions which might best be described as “inhumane”. He died, according to postmortem pathological report, from arthritis, cardiac, hepatic and …


Absent Abstinence Accountability, Elizabeth Arndorfer Jan 2000

Absent Abstinence Accountability, Elizabeth Arndorfer

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

Teenage sexual activity has important health and fiscal implications for the United States. In response to this, Congress has in the past increased federal funding for abstinence-only education programs. These federally funded abstinence-only education programs stress abstinence as the only viable option for teenagers and provide no information on other methods of contraception. Congress in the new term must decide whether to reauthorize funds for these abstinence-only programs. This Article reviews the history of how these abstinence-only programs acquired federal backing, the methods employed by these abstinence-only programs, and whether these abstinence- only programs are effective. This Article argues that …
