Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Eighty-nine lower-middle to lower class fifth grade students were administered the WISC-R and the Stanford Achievement Test.

Verbal Comprehension and Freedom from Distractibility, were …

Predictive Correlates Of Adoption Behavior In A Social Context: A Multiple Discriminant Analysis, Robert Brady

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Working from a communication theory paradigm and from previous literature, the purpose of this study was to empirically examine significant receiver correlates which predict adoption behavior of Sigma Nu Fraternity on three campuses. Drawing from past research, the present study utilized a unique combination of social and communication variables as predictors of fraternity membership. A stepwise multiple discriminant analysis using five factors derived from the thirteen independent variables yielded a highly significant three factor discriminant function (p < .001) which explained 46.65 percent of the common variance in adoption/non-adoption behavior of Sigma Nu. The significant factors were labeled peer group behavior, parental economic support, and social attitudes. Based on intuitive interpretation features of the data, the researcher suspects that adopters are more socially oriented, have a wider variety o: friends, are less dependent on parental economic support, and exhibit higher scores on measures such as self-esteem, liberalism, conservatism, and the need for identification with groups.

The Work Orientations Of Social Work Recruits: A Study Of Pre-Professional Socialization, Lillian Rogers

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

In the past, sociological literature has focused on the effects of professional socialization and its influence in the development of work orientations and its conduciveness to homogeneity within a profession. The "process model" served as the conceptual framework for this thesis which proposes that professions are segmented. The present author considered the social work profession as being segmented and was concerned with possible factors which contributed to such segmentation.

The focus of this thesis is to explore the influence of various sociodemographic variables such as age, sex, social class, marital status and parenthood, in addition to work and educational experiences …

Interpersonal Communication: The Shift Toward A Student-Centered Perspective In The Basic Speech Course, Gavin Whitsett

Church Attendance: Another Look, Ludwig Weaver Jr.

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

This thesis investigates the effect of nine sociological variables on church attendance in two churches in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The sample was drawn from a Church of Christ (N=135) and a Southern Baptist church (N=105). The effects of these variables were determined by using the computer program "Multiple Nominal Scale Analysis." The explanatory variables examined with church attendance were other religious activity, education, occupation, income, meaning, belonging, conservatism/ orthodoxy, a general sense of meaning, and the number of other voluntary associations belonged to. Meaning was defined as the belief that one belonged to the New Testament Church. Belonging was divided …

Governmental Policy & Stages Of Development In The Education Of Indian Americans, Janet Metcalf

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

A descriptive analytical study was done of the influence of Federal government policies on the present economic and educational status of Indian Americans.

Three Perspective views underlying government actions toward Indians were identified. The policy of extermination manifested itself in open conflict and the removal of Indian tribes to reservations. This segregation intensified Indian poverty and retarded educational development. The paternalism underlying the special wardship status of Indians created a sense of powerlessness in which Indians felt alienated from the decision-making process. Assimilation policies which were in essence Anglo-conformist policies were strongly followed in many government boarding schools. Anglo-conformity techniques …

Influence Of Sex Role Stereotypes On Ratings Of Male And Female Behavior, Constance Barclay

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

An attempt was made to investigate the extent to which individuals are unknowingly influenced by a sex role stereotype in their evaluations of men and women. It was hypothesized that subjects would describe a character in more potency-related, “masculine” terms if that character had been identified as a male than if the character had been identified as a female. Subjects taking part in this study were an equal number of male and female students in introductory psychology classes. The semantic differential technique was employed as a descriptive tool for the subjects’ evaluations of a character they read about in a …
