A Follow-Up Study Of Graduates Of The Division Of Practical Nurse Education, Davenport Area Technical School, To Determine Their Reaction To The Preparatory Program, Robert C. Dickey

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The field of practical nursing has grown considerably in the past ten years. To meet the challenge of growth, schools of practical nursing must be constantly aware of the changing needs of the many institutions their graduates may serve. In order to insure that graduates maintain their effectiveness as an established member of the nursing team, the schools must engage in continuous research to keep their curriculums meaningful and updated.

An Investigation Of College Success Of Odebolt-Arthur High School Graduates, Odebolt, Iowa, Donna Yvonne Hunter

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Throughout the nat1on there is a rapid increase in college and university enrollments. With this ever-increasing enrollment high school students find it necessary to make earlier decisions concerning their future. Such decisions usually bring forth the question, "Will I be able to succeed in college?" Such a question places much responsibility upon the high school counselor to provide students, as well as parents, with objective information concerning this transition from high school to college. Therefore, high school counselors are in need of more valid methods of making recommendations as to possible success in colleges and universities.

One of the Trainees failed to complete the 14 week training program. Of the 15 trainees who were promoted to the Aide position, one entered the armed forces.

A Study Of The Performance Of Sixth Grade Girls On The Vigotsky Block Test, R. Sherilyn Meece

Psychology ETDs

There is a large body of evidence (e.g., 9, 13) to indicate that as an individual develops there are both quantitative and qualitative changes in the concepts he uses to group stimuli. An appraisal of this research reflects two immediate deficiencies: (a) there is a scarcity of controlled, systematic studies using normal children as subjects: and (b) there is a lack of instruments suitable for comparative studies across wide areas of the developmental range.

The Effects Of Anxiety Producing Stimuli On Visual Perceptual Thresholds: A Study In Perceptual Defense, David A. Johnson

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

The purpose of this investigation was to examine experimentally the phenomenon of perceptual defense as it is related to cigarette smoking behavior. In making this examination a population of undergraduate college students was divided into three groups according to their smoking habits. The three groups were identified as smokers, non-smokers, and quitters. A list of smoking related words was equated with a list of neutral words according to their frequency of appearance in print. These lists of words were then combined to form one list with a random distribution of smoking and neutral words, and this list was presented as …

The Effect Of Restricted Homogeneous Visual Input Upon Exploratory Behavior Of The Hooded Rat, William Parke Fitzhugh

Master's Theses

During the last decade increasing attention has been paid to the effects of the perceptual variables in the environment of an organism upon the behavior of that organism. The importance of deprivation of exteroceptive stimulation is shown by the study of Bexton, Heron, and Scott (1954). Human Ss were placed in an isolated cubicle and wore equipment restricting visual and tactual stimulation. The Ss reactions included hallucinations, deterioration of intellectual abilities, and inability to tolerate the treatment for extended periods.

A Comparison Of Normal And Retardate Performance On The Mira Myokinetic Psychodiagnosis, Victor L. Baldwin

Electronic Theses & Dissertations

The Objective of the present study was to compare performance of normals and retardates on an expressive motor task. The test used was the Mira Myokinetic Psychodiagnosis. This test was selected because of its quality of objectivity and lack of use in the area of mental retardation. The need for such a study is evidenced by the speculation of various authors concerning the role of expressive motor behavior in personality development and its diagnostic value. The test was administered to twenty normals and twenty retardates. The retardate sample was selected from the patient population of Parsons State Hospital and Training …

Group Cohesiveness And Group Productivity, Michael M. Makedonsky

Masters Theses

Group Cohesiveness and Group Productivity

Cartwright and Zander (1953) distinguished at least three different meanings in their intuitive and operational descriptions of group cohesiveness: (a) attraction to the group, (b) morale, and (c) coordination of efforts of group members. Others have attempted to classify meanings of cohesiveness into two general categories. One category of definitions centers chiefly on particular aspects of group behavior or group process. Here, the meaning of cohesiveness refers to "sticking togetherness," productivity, task involvement and good team work. A common observation is that members of a cohesive group display a feeling of "we-ness" or "togetherness," meaning …
