An Operational Investigation Into The Relationships Among Projection, Empathy, And Reality, Patricia Ainsworth Nov 1952

An Operational Investigation Into The Relationships Among Projection, Empathy, And Reality, Patricia Ainsworth

Psychology ETDs

There has long been an interest among psychologists regarding the inner processes of the personality, but it has been only In recent years that an effort has been made to define and delineate these processes experimentally.

Student Work

In clinics and hospitals, in schools and other places where children are observed and rested, it has been a matter of observation for a long time that many young children see printed symbols in reverse.

Some clinicians have felt that this visual reversal tendency might be a definite deterrent in terms of reading difficulty.

Since records were available, it was decided that a statistical study could be undertaken in order to test this hypothesis.

A Parallel Group Experiment In Mental Hygiene With School Children, Ernest Herman Jackson Jr. Jan 1952

A Parallel Group Experiment In Mental Hygiene With School Children, Ernest Herman Jackson Jr.

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

However, after using his book for several years and in different grade levels: sixth, seventh and eighth, it became apparent that no such single remedy would change the behavior or personality of children in a basic sense. The lessons seemed to work best for the experiment with eighth grade pupils, but still he was not confident in this own mind that they were as effective as they might be; that is, to help boys and girls get along better with one another, to understand …


A Comparison Of Scores Of Negro And White Children On The Wechsler Intelligence Scale For Children, John Robert Blakemore Jan 1952

A Comparison Of Scores Of Negro And White Children On The Wechsler Intelligence Scale For Children, John Robert Blakemore

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Other investigators (these seem to be in the majority1 believe that environment plays the major role in lowering their ability to gain a comparable score with white individuals.
