Forever Young: Upon Reading Growing Young By Ashley Montagu, Raymond Coppinger, Charles Smith

Charles Kay Smith

We argue that the evolutionary process of neoteny -- the natural selection of regulatory gene mutations that retain a youthful ontogenetic system of physiological and behavioral characteristics, and thus never activates the full species-specific features of the ancestors’ adulthood. The resulting new behavio-morph retains infant/young features throughout ontogeny and never displays the adult behavior or physiology of the adult ancestor. This kind of neotenic adulthood defines the human character. We not only inherit our ancestors’ youthful anatomy and physiology but the ancestors’ youthful motivations and proclivities such as docility and social dependency, curiosity and learning as well. We retain our …

La Renovación Urbana En Quito, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

La conciencia de la incidencia de determinantes: sociales, económicos, culturales y políticos en la estructuración del entorno urbano, caduca la vigencia del concepto, RENOVACION URBANA como una simple intervención técnica. Así, la problemática especifica de la renovación urbana en América Latina debemos comprenderla como una particularidad de la problemática urbana de todos los países subdesarrollados y dependientes, evidenciándose lógicamente matices diferentes según el nivel de desarrollo de cada pueblo, pero las raíces son las mismas y son incuestionablemente el producto de la agresión del imperialismo, el colonialismo y el neocolonialismo que se materializa trágicamente en la dura realidad latinoamericana.

The Dream Of Babel, Steven Alan Samson

Steven Alan Samson

“The literature of humanism ranges over such superficially distinct ideologies as socialism, anarchism, evolutionism, vitalism, eugenics, behaviorism, progressive education, legal positivism, historicism, the human potential movement, globalism, religious syncretism, and occultism. The themes and variations of this literature are linked by a few leitmotifs, or “leading ideas.” In one way or another they parody Scripture and God’s promises.

Replacing The U.S. Income Tax With A Progressive Consumption Tax : A Sequenced General Equilibrium Approach, Don Fullerton, John B. Shoven, John Whalley

Don Fullerton

This paper examines the welfare consequences of changing the current U.S. income tax system to a progressive consumption tax. We compute a sequence of single period equilibria in which savings decisions depend on the expected future return to capital. In the presence of existing income taxes, the U.S. economy is assumed to lie on a balanced growth path. With the change to a consumption tax, individuals save more and initially consume less. As the capital stock grows, consumption eventually overtakes that of the original path, and the economy approaches the new balanced growth path with higher consumption and a greater …

Effects On Academic Learning Of Manipulating Emotional States And Motivational Dynamics, Gregory J. Boyle

Gregory J. Boyle

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of emotionally disturbing stimuli on the learning process. A five-minute film segment depicting horrific scenes of automobile accident victims, and part of a pathologist's post-mortem of a victim, was shown to an experimental group of 69 student teachers, while a non-treatment group of 66 student teachers served as controls. The two groups were well matched on several independent variables covering the four domains of ability, personality, motivation, and mood states. The emotionally disturbing treatment produced a decrement in learning performance, but resulted in a massive 36 per cent increase in …

Periodical Use In A University Music Library: A Citation Study Of Theses And Dissertations Submitted To The Indiana University School Of Music From 1975-1980, Richard Griscom

Richard Griscom

In an effort to measure in-house use of music periodicals, a citation study based on bibliographies in theses and dissertations was conducted at the Indiana University Music Library. A total of 256 titles were cited, but only 30% were cited more than once. While the periodical literature cited by musicologists has a low rate of obsolescence, the periodicals cited by theorists and educators becomes obsolete at a rapid rate, making the rate of obsolescence for the field as a whole, fairly high, unlike other subject areas in the humanities.

Consonantal Morphology In The Chaha Verb, John J. Mccarthy

John J. McCarthy

In the Gurage (Ethiopian Semitic) language Chaha, erstwhile phonological processes of palatalization and labialization have been morphologized as part of the inflectional system. Specifically, under certain morphological conditions we find palatalization of a root-final velar or coronal obstruent, labialization of the rightmost labial or velar consonant in the root, or a conjunction of these two processes. The most striking aspect of this morphological system is that the labialization and palatalization apply across the board to all copies of a reduplicated root consonant.
