The Effect Of Counselor-Trainees' Mood-States On Counselor-Trainees' Affective State Empathy, Marguerite Clare Wyman
The Effect Of Counselor-Trainees' Mood-States On Counselor-Trainees' Affective State Empathy, Marguerite Clare Wyman
All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This analogue study was an investigation of the effects of counselor-trainee mood-state upon counselor-trainee affective empathy and attribution of emotion. The sample consisted of 89 master's and doctoral level counselors-in-training enrolled in counselor-education programs at two midwestern universities. Students randomly participated in one of two mood-treatment conditions: Elated or Depressed. Moods were induced with the Velten Mood Induction task. Dependent variables of affective empathy and attribution of emotion were measured by the Affective Sensitivity Scale, Form E-80. Five research hypotheses were analyzed by five one-way analyses of variance. None of the research hypotheses (p $<$.05) yielded significant differences across conditions of mood-state. In a post hoc analysis, a significant difference between master's and doctoral level counselors-in-training was observed for the dependent variable of affective empathy. It was concluded that there do not appear to be relationships between (a) counselor mood-state and counselor affective empathy, or (b) counselor mood-state and counselor attribution of emotion. Implications for practice and further research are discussed.

Acquiring Vocabulary In A Foreign Language: Some Effects Of The Nature Of Instruction On The Knowledge And Use Of Words., Louise Stowell-Ruzicka
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect that the nature of instruction of French vocabulary words has on student knowledge and use of the words on five different measures: a definition recognition test, a cloze plus word bank test, a comprehension of a text containing the words, a writing assignment designed to elicit free use of these words and a test of overall reading proficiency. Eighty-one high school students in the second year course of French constituted three treatment groups: (1) traditional instruction where students were required to learn a list of 12 words paired with their …
An Ethnographic Study Of Kindergarten Children's Literacy Skills And Stress-Related Behaviors Before And After Teacher Demonstration., Nancy Crossland Weems
An Ethnographic Study Of Kindergarten Children's Literacy Skills And Stress-Related Behaviors Before And After Teacher Demonstration., Nancy Crossland Weems
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
The purpose of this ethnographic research was to study kindergarten students' literacy skills and stress-related behaviors and a teacher's instructional behavior before and after demonstrations in appropriate bookreading strategies. A lower socio-economic setting, which previously had been identified by Burts, Hart, Charlesworth, and Kirk (1990a) as a developmentally inappropriate instructional environment, was selected for observation as one which might be amenable to change. The demonstrations included bookreading strategies that the kindergarten teacher could implement to promote the acquisition of literacy in ways that do not contribute to stress. Ethnographic data collection consisted of three months of participant observation in one …

Student Thought Processes And Quality Of Practice During Motor Skill Instruction., Melinda Ann Solmon
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
The focus of this study was the examination of relationships between initial skill level, observer estimates of attention, student thoughts, quality of practice, and achievement during motor skill instruction. Specifically, the following questions were addressed: (1) What is the relationship between observed student behavior to quality of practice and achievement? (2) What is the relationship between student reports of their cognitive processes to quality of practice and achievement? (3) Does written self-report data produce the same information as data collected during stimulated recall interviews? and (4) Are student self-report data about attention consistent with observer estimates of overt student behavior? …
Effects Of A Whole Language Approach Using Authentic French Texts On Student Comprehension And Attitude., Colette Hood Stelly
Effects Of A Whole Language Approach Using Authentic French Texts On Student Comprehension And Attitude., Colette Hood Stelly
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a Whole Language Approach (WLA), using authentic French stories, on measures of listening and reading comprehension of fourth-year high school students of French, and on their attitudes to learning French, as opposed to students using customary textbook materials in a conventional teacher-centered classroom setting. This investigation comprised two components: (a) a quantitative component which statistically determined results on measures of listening, reading and attitude, and, (b) a qualitative component which reviewed classroom procedures through observation and interview. Analysis of variance on four separate posttests showed statistically significant differences in …
"Spades Players" And "Senators": An Ethnography Of Black Subcultures In A Community College., Anthony Louis Molina Sr
"Spades Players" And "Senators": An Ethnography Of Black Subcultures In A Community College., Anthony Louis Molina Sr
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
This ethnographic study of Black community college students, in a predominantly white community college, took place over a three-year period and focused on two groups. One group, the spades players, neglected their studies in favor of the card game spades, which they made the central activity of their family-like collective in the student commons. The other group, Black senators in the Student Government Association, were academic achievers who performed service to the college. By immersion into both cultures, the researcher gained the confidence of individual students in both groups, interviewed them in various settings, and looked for reasons behind the …

Curriculum Reform From Multicultural Perspectives: The Analysis Of An Urban School District's Systemic Process. (Volumes I And Ii)., Linda Johnson Stelly
LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses
Crises in the economic and social conditions of the underrepresented have led to the analysis of education and the schooling process for responses to and explanations for these inequalities. The purpose of this ethnographically informed, autobiographic case study is to examine the relational and contradictory dynamics of an urban southern school district's systemic process of educational reform from multicultural perspectives. The case study examines the rules, roles and relationships of key change agents and stakeholders as they define education from multicultural perspectives in the process of change. The research further examines the developmental processes necessary to transform the existing curriculum …

This study was designed to describe the progress of the Waterloo Chapter 1 program on students' subsequent school test scores, and Chapter 1 and special education placements. The subjects for this study consisted of 297 students who were enrolled in the Chapter 1 preschool program during the academic years 1985-1989, and who remained in the Waterloo School System through 1990-1991. The Waterloo Chapter 1 prekindergarten program identifies educationally disadvantaged children and offers them a developmentally-appropriate, preschool program to assist them with developing language and math skills. Results of the study suggest that enrollment in the Waterloo Chapter 1 prekindergarten program …
Meta-Analysis Of Hersey And Blanchard's Situational Leadership Theory, Harold Ellwood Jr Wiggin
Meta-Analysis Of Hersey And Blanchard's Situational Leadership Theory, Harold Ellwood Jr Wiggin
Electronic Theses and Dissertations 1990 - 1999
This study examined the validity of Hersey and Blanchard' s Situational Leadership Theory (SLT). The meta-analytic techniques of Hunter, Schmidt, and Jackson were used to investigate two research questions: (1) Does the matching of leadership styles and follower maturity influence outcome measures? (2) Can any of the remaining variance be attributed to moderator variables? A literature search from January, 1968 to April, 1990 produced 26 acceptable studies with 52 separate effects. A correlation coefficient was reported for each study. In studies with multiple effects the correlation was computed from an aggregation of those effects. A mean and variance were tabulated, …

The Relationship Of Personality Type To Leader Style And Perceived Effectiveness Among Dental Hygiene School Administrators, Susan J. Willette
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study was to identify personality types among dental hygiene school administrators and faculty and to determine if correlations existed between leader style, ideologies of leader style, perceived effectiveness, and personality type. Selected demographic variables were also examined. The dimensions of personality investigated were derived from the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator: extroversion, introversion, sensing, intuition, thinking, feeling, judging, and perceiving. The leadership behavior dimensions were the two dimensions of the real and ideal Leadership Behavior Description Questionnaires: consideration and initiating structure. Effectiveness was measured by a 39 item Likert-type instrument based on Tucker's (1981) categorical listing of chairperson …

Teacher Ratings As Predictors Of Reading Achievement On Curriculum-Based And A Standardized Oral Reading Test, Harva H. Paul
Teacher Ratings As Predictors Of Reading Achievement On Curriculum-Based And A Standardized Oral Reading Test, Harva H. Paul
Student Work
Teacher ratings as predictors of student reading speed and accuracy using curriculum-based assessment (CBA) probes and a standardized oral reading measures were evaluated. One hundred and nine third graders read orally three CBA probes from their classroom reader and the third grade level samples from the Gray Oral Reading Test. Teachers independently rated students on speed of reading, errors made, and overall reading skills. Ratings were compared with actual performance. Teacher ratings of overall reading skills best predicted performance on the CBA probes, while ratings of speed of reading and errors best predicted student outcomes on the Gray passages. Teachers …
Women As Managers: Myths And Realities, Carol B. Hillman
Women As Managers: Myths And Realities, Carol B. Hillman
New England Journal of Public Policy
The negative myths about women in management are dying. The new reality is that women can and do manage men and women exceedingly well. Because of this, women clearly have the opportunity to attain economic power and security. But another new reality is raising its ugly head: women who refuse to work for other women or, worse yet, undermine their female managers. Mentors, training, and commitment on the part of institutions to employ them as managers will assure women the fair chance to succeed as managers.
