Toxins In The Collection: Museum Awareness And Protection, Nellie Slocum
Toxins In The Collection: Museum Awareness And Protection, Nellie Slocum
Museum Studies Theses
The purpose of this thesis is to discuss museum policies regarding toxic materials used in the creation of an object or added to it as a preservation or pesticide technique. After surveying different museums, it has been found that many museums are unaware of what parts of their collections contain toxic materials. Because of this unfamiliarity with the danger these materials might pose, many museums to not have policies in place regarding them.

The Telling Line: The Relationship Between Cognitive Style And Fashion Design Sketching, Mary K. Culpepper
The Telling Line: The Relationship Between Cognitive Style And Fashion Design Sketching, Mary K. Culpepper
Creative Studies Graduate Student Master's Theses
This mixed-methods exploratory study addresses a gap in the literature by testing for links between cognitive style and the gestalt of sketches produced by college-level fashion design students. Students’ cognitive styles were appraised with the FourSight assessment, a measure of problem-solving preference gaining use in design schools. Then participants sketched fashion designs to complete a design brief. Panels of raters trained in FourSight reviewed the sketches to assess the cognitive styles of the sketchers. Quantitative analysis revealed a significant degree of interrater reliability, while qualitative analysis indicated emergent themes of selection, attitude, and innovation that aligned with FourSight types. The …
