The Influence Of Retention Intervals And Warning Signals On Prospective Memory, Michael Andrew Sarapata
All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

However, research has yet to examine how prospective remembering unfolds over time. For example, very little is known about how such remembering is affected by the time from when the task is encoded to the time that a task must be conducted (the retention interval), the length of the time in which …

The Spanish Chapel Of Santa Maria Novella: A Document Of Dominican Dogma, Dale Hoover

Rorschach Erlebnistypus And Problem-Solving Styles In Children, Daniel R. Orme
All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study was designed to determine whether children who, on the basis of their Rorschach Erlebnistypus score, were identified as being introversive or extratensive differed with respect to their approaches to certain novel problem-solving tasks. It was thought that the extratensives would characteristically manipulate the task materials more and make more mistakes than would the introversives, owing to the notion that the introversives internalize more of their manipulations and attempted solutions. Sixty-nine sixth and seventh graders at a university-run laboratory school were administered the Rorschach. From that number fifteen introversive and fifteen extratensive children were identified who were also given …
