A Compilation Of Published Research In Elementary Arithmetic Since 1931, Alfred C. Birdsell

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

Many articles are published each year pertaining to elementary arithmetic. Some of these may very properly be designated "mere opinion” while others may very properly be classified as "research". Because of the large number of such articles appearing in print pertaining to some aspect of arithmetic, no doubt a service may be rendered to teachers of the subject by evaluating and classifying them as research or otherwise. From this situation grew the problem of this thesis, the title of which may be stated as follows: A Compilation of Published Research in Elementary Arithmetic Since 1931. Such a guide should be …

The Growth Of The Educational Program In Kansas For Handicapped Children, Bill E. Mcarthur

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

Kansas, as well as the other forty-seven states, assisted by the Federal Government, has long recognized the need for the caring of the physical well-being of its children. To this end monetary appropriations and various agencies have been set up by legislation to provide food, shelter, and clothing for children whose parents could not provide these essentials. This has al.so been done for those who needed medical care and other physical corrections as well as for those whose mentality has not developed to an extent to permit them to make their way among normal people. However, “Man shall not live …

The Rorschach Test With Children From Two To Six Years Old, Richard H. Dana

Regional Research Institute for Human Services

The development of the ink-blot as a psychological tool has taken a thousand years. The Rorschach, a formal clinical representative of this heritage, is a product of this "testing age" and has been extensively used with children. This has necessitated certain modifications of procedure and analysis which have been achieved by more or less intuitive, non-systematic methods. The most pertinent questions concerning the Rorschach test with adults also apply to children. These questions include the merry-go-round of scoring possibilities: "Clinical", intuitive; objective and in terms of formal categories; psychometric, utilizing a vast number of rating scales.

Effect Of Expressive Methods Of Child Psychotherapy Upon Intellectual Efficiency, Viola Caprez Ames

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

It is the purpose of this study to investigate the effectiveness of a certain type of child training in accelerating the development of intellectual efficiency. By expressive methods is meant the use of different media through which the child can find self-expression for otherwise inarticulate ideas. Such media as finger-painting, clay modeling, dramatization and free hand drawing give opportunity for the child to create or objectify his subjective feelings or ideas. By child psychotherapy is meant a method of treatment in readjusting the personality of children. The change in I.Q. means a change in the relation of mental age to …

The Relation Of Certain Factors In Farm Family Life To Personality Development In Adolescents, Leland H. Stott

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Research Bulletins

Although "the family" has been much written about, and studied from many points of view in the past, relatively little attention has been given by investigators to the problem of determining the factors which make for successful family life. The need for information of this sort is obvious, and in recent years a few studies have been made from this point of view. The present study was undertaken for the purpose of gathering further information about "normal" families and some of the home-environmental factors which are thought to contribute to, or hinder, the achievement of successful family life.

Greek And Roman Child Life As Represented In Some Greek And Latin Authors, Anne Louise Sanford

Honors Theses

In the following study I have attempted to present a picture of Greek and Roman child life as it is represented in some Greek and Latin authors. Most of my material has been derived from well known authors such as Homer, Plato, Quintilian, etc. But there has been an attempt to enlarge my scope by consulting some other Greek and Latin authors easily available in the University of Richmond Library, the Richmond Public Library and the Virginia state Library. In my general discussion I have drawn freely on available works which would be helpful for elucidation and comparison.

Approaches To Bible-Study In A Metropolitan Center, A. R. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

To many of our people the Bible is a closed book, not because of the difficulty of understanding it, but because the approaches to it, outside of the sermon, have always been rather ponderous and seemingly uninteresting. A fortunate impatience and natural rebellion against such an attitude has caused us to seek new approaches to Bible-study which would be thoroughly dignified and truly enriching. The people who have found the way back to the Scriptures through these approaches have contributed to one of the most heartening experiences of a metropolitan ministry. We are not here in order to defend any …

A Sociological And Psychological Survey Of One Hundred Patients Of The Hays Crippled Children's Clinic, Helen Starbuck

Master's Theses or Doctor of Nursing Practice

The major and minor problems of the thesis are as follows: Are the children treated at the Hays Clinic as a group mentally, temperamentally and socially normal enough to justify the state in attempting to make them physically well? What are the sociological and psychological effects of occupational therapy and school work upon patients in the clinic? In order to arrive at a solution of the foregoing problems, a study of 100 children entering the Hays Crippled Children's Clinic was made . Both laboratory and questionnaire methods were used.

Testimonials For The Lutheran Position In Education, P E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

We Lutherans of the Synodical Conference are sometimes inclined to be somewhat apologetic with regard to our whole system of religious instruction. This is true even of our catechetical training in preparation for the rite of confirmation and the admission to adult or communicant membership in the Church. How else shall we explain the lowering of standards of indoctrination, particularly in adult classes? And yet, apart from Scripture precept and example, we have the support of some of the staunchest champions of the Bible, as when J. Gresham Machen writes, in his book What is Faith? (p. 150 f.) : …
