The Pauline Concept Of The New Man, Clarence William Franz
The Pauline Concept Of The New Man, Clarence William Franz
Graduate Thesis Collection
This thesis is to be primarily a character analysis. Naturally that will eliminate considerations that might be easily included. As far as possible a strenuous effort will be made to avoid detailed discussions about theological issues that inescapably belong to such a study as this. In a character analysis we must be concerned principally with individuality in persons. By that we mean to treat all those features and characteristions which distinguish the new man from the old. Those theological factors having to do primarily with the state of man in his relation to God will only be touched upon. It …

Some Contributions To The Understanding Of The Stability Of Attitudes, Betty Bennett
Some Contributions To The Understanding Of The Stability Of Attitudes, Betty Bennett
Master's Theses
The field of attitude research may be placed in three categories: 1. Determination of the consensus of public opinion regarding social issues. 2. Attitude measurement techniques. 3. Investigation of the intrinsic psychological nature of human attitudes. This study has to do with the third category. Unless this point is clearly borne in mind, the purpose of the investigation which is reported herein may be obscure. Here we are not concerned with the content of the attitude, but with the mechanism of the attitude. We are studying the attitude to determine its inner characteristic s, its make-up, rather than to show …

The Role Of Personal Experiences In The Formulation Of Social Attitudes Of Liberalism And Conservatism, Harry J. Older
Master's Theses
The purpose of this study is to discover if the following hypothesis, which was set up on the basis of clinical experience, is true. The social attitudes of an individual are as much the product of local personal incidents as of the bias of the education and training of that individual.
A Factor Analysis Of Verbal Ability, Floyd Edward Reynolds
A Factor Analysis Of Verbal Ability, Floyd Edward Reynolds
Master's Theses
For many years the practical value of tests of intelligence, aptitude and other qualities has been demonstrated. As the “testing movement” has grown, a multitude of tests has been devised and is now available for testing of human abilities. Two of the most important attempts to understand intellectual abilities are found in the theories and methods of Spearman and Thurstone. There is a possibility that the statistical studies of these theorists have overlooked a valuable source of information, that is existing experimental information about different processes included in mental ability. It is this possibility that prompted this study.
Extrapyramidal Mechanisms In Handedness In The Rat, James Chaplin
Extrapyramidal Mechanisms In Handedness In The Rat, James Chaplin
Psychology ETDs
From the previous work on handedness from Peterson, we know that there is a sharply localized area in the contralateral cerebral cortex of the frontal region for the control of handedness in the rat. Widespread occipital and temporal destructions are without influence when this area is intact.

A Clinical Study Of The Consistency Between Verbal And Behavioral Expressions Of Socio-Economic Attitudes, Elizabeth Lee Downs
Master's Theses
For the promotion of socio-economic programs for relief clients which will be of mutual benefit to the individuals and to society it is necessary to determine the actual attitudes of those individuals toward socio-economic problems. The verbal statements of attitudes toward social, economic and personal problems of relief children of relief parents are inconsistent with and non-indicative of their actual attitudes as revealed by their clinical case studies. The purpose of this study is to discover whether or not such radical differences between verbal and actual attitudes do appear and with sufficient frequency to prevent uncritically the acceptance of verbal …
Transient Aphasia And Some Methods Of Controlling The Transient Aphasia Cycle, James Harvey Wright
Transient Aphasia And Some Methods Of Controlling The Transient Aphasia Cycle, James Harvey Wright
Master's Theses
A high incidence of transient aphasia among its cases has been recognized for some time by the Fort Hays Kansas State College Psychological Clinic. Clinical tests of transient aphasia are a routine part of the Clinic’s psychometric procedure, especially with children showing speech and reading disabilities. Abnormally long eye fixations where the word is known to the subject momentary binocular divergence, periodic eye tremors, blocks in phonation either with or without the usual symptoms of stuttering, superficial appearance of transitory deafness, and various motor blocks have been suspected as being evidence of transient aphasic conditions.
Effect Of Expressive Methods Of Child Psychotherapy Upon Intellectual Efficiency, Viola Caprez Ames
Effect Of Expressive Methods Of Child Psychotherapy Upon Intellectual Efficiency, Viola Caprez Ames
Master's Theses
It is the purpose of this study to investigate the effectiveness of a certain type of child training in accelerating the development of intellectual efficiency. By expressive methods is meant the use of different media through which the child can find self-expression for otherwise inarticulate ideas. Such media as finger-painting, clay modeling, dramatization and free hand drawing give opportunity for the child to create or objectify his subjective feelings or ideas. By child psychotherapy is meant a method of treatment in readjusting the personality of children. The change in I.Q. means a change in the relation of mental age to …

The Influence Of College Courses On Individual Differences, Clarke Carson Mcilree
The Influence Of College Courses On Individual Differences, Clarke Carson Mcilree
Master's Theses
What is the effect of college training upon individuals? More specifically, do college students become more alike or more unlike in , respect to the achievement involved in a college course as a result of taking the course? That is the question which this study will investigate. The importance of this question to the educator is that it involves educational technique and philosophy. If it is found that our educational system decreases individual differences and has the effect therefore, of equalizing opportunity, our philosophy of universal education as an important factor in the achievement of democracy is valid. On the …
