A Palaeodemographic Model Of Late Holocene Central Murray Aboriginal Society, Australia, Steve Webb
A Palaeodemographic Model Of Late Holocene Central Murray Aboriginal Society, Australia, Steve Webb
Steve Webb
A recent palaeopathological study has indicated that prehistoric Aboriginal society in some parts of southeastern Australia was sedentary and supported large populations. This conclusion generally supports archaeological evidence that a period of socio-enconomic intensification took place over the last 2–3,000 years. Also, concurrent research has focused attention on the possibility of extensive reductions among Aboriginal populations of the area through the introduction of smallpox. This process took place at a very early stage of European colonisation and in regions yet to be explored. As a result, smallpox probably killed large numbers of Aborigens before Europeans knew what the size of …

Extract
In the last three years Aboriginal communities, particularly from south-eastern Australia, have shown great concern about the collection, storage and study of their skeletal remains. From the start there was an almost universal call for the immediate reburial of all such remains held in museums, irrespective of age and scientific value. Between May 1984 and the end of 1985, a series of Aboriginal meetings took place at which the maintenance of Aboriginal skeletal collections and research on them was condemned. Moratoria followed, preventing research even on those remains dating back 14,000 years. Antagonism arose between Aborigines and researchers, particularly …

Reinforcement In The 16th Century: Was The Bard A Behaviorist?, James Dougan
Reinforcement In The 16th Century: Was The Bard A Behaviorist?, James Dougan
James Dougan
Shakespeare's play The Taming of the Shrew is described in terms of behavior analysis. Changes in the behavior of the character Kate result from her husband Petruchio's manipulation of environmental contingencies. Aspects ofbehavior analysis found in the play include the identification of target behavior, the establishment of events as reinforcers, the arrangement of contingencies between responses and reinforcers, and the assessment of post-intervention responding. Several aspects of Shakespeare's description are related to current issues in behavior analysis bearing on theory, cultural practices, and public relations.

Form And Meaning: The Conventionalization Of The Leaf Ornament, Kresten Jespersen
Form And Meaning: The Conventionalization Of The Leaf Ornament, Kresten Jespersen
Kresten Jespersen
As did Owen Jones, Bloomer argues for a modern style of ornament to decorate a modern architecture. Based on formal laws rather than theories of classical or naturalistic imitation, conventionalization can be seen as being explicitly modern. Moreover, deriving from the work of ornament, these laws are dependent on intrinsic rather than extrinsic principles.
