Physical And Emotional States As Memory-Relevant Factors: Cognitive Monitoring By Young Children, Donald S. Hayes, L. Carol Scott, Bruce E. Chemelski, Janelle Johnson Oct 1987

Physical And Emotional States As Memory-Relevant Factors: Cognitive Monitoring By Young Children, Donald S. Hayes, L. Carol Scott, Bruce E. Chemelski, Janelle Johnson

Psychology Faculty Scholarship

The Flavell (l981) model of cognitive monitoring and metamnemonic development was tested by four experiments conducted to determine whether preschool children (1) recognize that mood, fatigue, and fear are variables that influence learning; and (2) self-monitor their internal states and adjust their study behavior when they are sad or tired.


Insight Versus Rehearsal In Cognitive-Behavior Therapy: A Crossover Study With Sixteen Phobics, Geoffrey L. Thorpe, Jeffrey E. Hecker, Lorraine A. Cavallaro, Gordon E. Kulberg Oct 1987

Insight Versus Rehearsal In Cognitive-Behavior Therapy: A Crossover Study With Sixteen Phobics, Geoffrey L. Thorpe, Jeffrey E. Hecker, Lorraine A. Cavallaro, Gordon E. Kulberg

Psychology Faculty Scholarship

Although cognitive restructuring (CR) procedures have not proven very helpful for phobics in recent studies, insight and rehearsal components of CR have often been confounded. To seek possible differences in effectiveness between insight and rehearsal, we treated 16 phobics (eight agoraphobics and eight others) with four sessions of each method, using a counterbalanced crossover design with 1-month follow-ups after each treatment component. Significantly fewer sessions were attended by the clients in the rehearsal/insight sequence, and benefit ratings made by project completers significantly favoured insight/rehearsal. Few other treatment group differences were seen, but those that emerged gave the advantage to insight. …

Fear Reduction Processes In Imaginal And In Vivo Flooding: A Comment On James' Review, Jeffrey E. Hecker, Geoffrey L. Thorpe Jul 1987

Fear Reduction Processes In Imaginal And In Vivo Flooding: A Comment On James' Review, Jeffrey E. Hecker, Geoffrey L. Thorpe

Psychology Faculty Scholarship

The research comparing imaginal and in vivo exposure in the treatment of clinically significant fear, recently reviewed by James (1986), is reexamined from the perspective of bioinformational theory and the concept of emotional processing. Fear is assumed to be stored in long term memory as a network of propositionally-coded information, which has to be processed if treatment is to be successful. Emotional processing is indicated by activation of fear responses and their habituation within and across treatment sessions. Consistent with the theory, our review indicates that successful treatment via imaginal and in vivo exposure is indeed related to activation and …

The Corporación Minera De Bolivia (Comibol) And The Triangular Plan: A Case Study In Dependency, Melvin Burke

School of Economics Faculty Scholarship

This monograph is a study of a nationalized industry in an underdeveloped country. The geographical setting is Latin America and the specific case study is that of Corporacion Minera de Bolivia, better known as COMIBOL. The intent of the study is to evaluate the Triangular Plan, a $62 million financial assistance program funded 1961 to 1970 by the Inter-American Development Bank and the governments of West Germany and the United States. After less than a decade of existence (1952-1960), COMIBOL was decapitalized, de facto bankrupt, and on the verge of collapse. The objective of the Triangular Plan was to rehabilitate …
