Breeding Bird Populations And Habitat Utilization In Aspen Stands Of Upper Logan Canyon, Janet L. Young
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Censuses of two 20-acre plots in upper Logan Canyon, Utah, were made by the spot-mapping method during 1970 and 1971 to determine the differences in composition and density of breeding-bird populations in aspen stands of significantly different density and stature. The less dense stand of greater average d.b.h., average height and per cent ground cover had 20 breeding species totalling 615 pairs per 100 acres (expressed as equivalent territories). The more dense stand of smaller trees and brushy undergrowth had 14 breeding species with 267.5 equivalent territories per 100 acres. Nine species were found on both areas. Observations of foraging …
The Supreme Organ Of The Mind's Self-Ordering Growth, T. Y. Booth
The Supreme Organ Of The Mind's Self-Ordering Growth, T. Y. Booth
Faculty Honor Lectures
As is true of other organs, when language is functioning well, we pay little or no attention to it or its complexities. Part of the difficulty, in fact, of doing justice to the problems of expression and interpretation that Richards asks us to deal with is that routine language experience occurs so effortlessly, so unconcernedly, so second-natured naturally, that when we do run into difficulties we do not always recognize them as difficulties of our developing language. Or, what can be even worse, we think of the language difficulties as if they were separable, as if the thought would be …

Some Aspects Of Conditioning Behavior In Rainbow Trout, Salmo Gairdneri, Reed E. Harris
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Effects of exercise, social facilitation, and delayed conditioning after vi exercise on the learning behavior of 5 to 6-inch rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri, was measured in a conditioned avoidance response apparatus. The conditioning schedule contained an intertrial interval between alternate presentations of conditioned (light) and unconditioned (shock) stimuli. This randomization eliminated learning losses found in a previous study. Mean percentage avoidance, the measurement of learning, did not decrease significantly during conditioning trials. Exercised fish learned avoidance better than did non-exercised fish. Mean percentage avoidance for fish exercised at 0.5 ft/sec was 66.3; at 1.0 ft/ sec, 1.5 ft/sec, and …
Self-Imposed Delays Of Reinforcement In Conjunctive Schedules, Daniel M. Mccarthy
Self-Imposed Delays Of Reinforcement In Conjunctive Schedules, Daniel M. Mccarthy
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
This experiment examined the role of delays of reinforcement in producing the response pattern generated by fixed interval (FI) schedules. Conjunctive schedules which required one response and maintained a 100 sec interreinforcement interval were used. These schedules permitted a variable delay of reinforcement to separate the last response in each interval from reinforcement. The maximum delay was specified, however, by specifying the percentage of the interval which must elapse before responses counted toward reinforcement. Maximum delays of 100, 95, 75, 50, 25, 5 and 0 seconds were examined and their effects on response rate, response distribution, and post-reinforcement pause were …

Rural-Urban Personality Differences In Utah Adolescents As Measured By The Cpi, Benjamin K. Nelson
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The CPI (California Psychological Inventory) was administered to 395 high school students to determine if personality differences exist between rural and urban adolescents in Utah. Of those tested, 219 were selected from three rural schools and 176 were selected from three urban schools.
Ten of the eighteen individual scales of the CPI showed differences between rural and urban students at the P < .05 level. Two of the four classes of scales showed differences at the P < .01 level, and the other two classes showed differences significant at the P < .05 level. In each case where significant differences were found, the differences favored the urban students. The results of this study indicate that the urban students in Utah tend to have more positive personality characteristics than the rural students.

The Development Of Career Activities For Fourth Grade Students, Barbara P. M. Southwick
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Today's youth have few real contacts with the work world and have little knowledge of what is expected from them. Many grade school youngsters are not aware of the type of work their parents are doing. Some do not even know where their parents work. It is difficult for most elementary students to see the relationship between their present school activities and their future life. And all too often, students can not express personal goals or plans.
As students become more aware of the world of work, they should be better prepared to enter it and they should also develop …

Economic Development Of Thailand: An Analysis Of The Agricultural Sector, Thamnoon Soparatana
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
This study takes a look at government aid to agriculture in Thailand and attempts to analyze its effectiveness. Only two crops have been aided directly by the government, rice and rubber, though others have undoubtedly benefitted by improvements in the country's infrastructure. The regressions performed on some simple production functions indicate that rice yields have been improved through government programs. The program for rubber largely a subsidy for new plantings, ha as yet not had much impact on yields. This maybe due to the fact that the pay-off period is at least seven years. There is also some evidence that …

An Analysis Of Factors Influencing Farm Family Residence Location, Larry Keith Bond
An Analysis Of Factors Influencing Farm Family Residence Location, Larry Keith Bond
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Census data reveal that the percentage of farm operators in the United States that live off-farm is increasing. It has been suggested that this may be due largely to a shifting of residence off-farm. An analysis of factors influencing residence of farm families has been done at the national level. In addition, a cross section analysis of county data within states has been attempted. However, a purely local analysis is needed to pick up the variation obscured by aggregate data. The purpose of this study is to identify and evaluate variables that might be expected to influence residence location, and …

Optimal Allocation Of Irrigation Water: The Sevier River Basin, Harold H. Hiskey
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Economic efficiency criteria are used to optimally allocate irrigation water in a closed river basin (Sevier River). The Basin is geographically divided into four subbasins. Linear programming model were developed for each of the four areas and used to generate value of marginal product schedules by parametric variation of water during the late irrigation season (after July 1). Differences in value of marginal product for average annual water deliveries were indications of a malallocation of late season water. A reallocation involving 28 percent of the restraining input (water) would increase net farm incomes (returns to capital, labor, and management) an …

These states vary significantly in type of farm, tenure conditions, off-farm employment opportunities, cultural patterns, remoteness of farms from town, and other variables.
Forward step-wise regression analysis was utilized in each of the states to correlate percent of farm operators residing off the farm with type of …
The Young Child's Concept Of Human Conception And Birth, Julie Ann Broberg Puzey
The Young Child's Concept Of Human Conception And Birth, Julie Ann Broberg Puzey
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The views held by children about the ere at ion and birth of babies are of importance in child development and developmental psychology. However, most of the research done in this area has been of a theoretical nature rather than empirical. The research shows controversy in the child's concept of human conception and birth, and because of this controversy a study was deemed necessary to find out more of what the young child's concept is of human conception and birth.
The purpose of this study, therefore, was to attempt to determine the extent of children's awareness of the nature of …

The Prediction Of Sales Success Among B. F. Goodrich Territory Managers, Richard F. Fail
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
The B. F. Goodrich Company spends considerable money selecting and training territory managers. The hiring of territory managers generally rests with local management's "intuition." Since 1967, a substantial percentage of these highly trained salesmen have separated from the company. It was within this attrition context, that an exploratory, objective, selection program was studied.
A multiple discriminant function (multigroup model) was used to analyze three groups of B. F. Goodrich Territory Managers' California Psychology Inventory and Edwards Personal Preference Schedule test scores.
The data revealed that known territory managers' group membership could be significantly predicted. A longitudinal study (one year later) …

The Effects Of A Token Economy On Epileptic Seizure Rates, Frederick Hjalmer Lindberg
The Effects Of A Token Economy On Epileptic Seizure Rates, Frederick Hjalmer Lindberg
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Past studies have shown that a relationship may exist between certain forms of epileptic seizures and specific environmental stimuli. This relationship is not well understood. The objective of this study was to assess this relationship by determining the effect of a selected token economy on seizure rates. The token economy utilized in this study may differ from token economies described in the literature as it employed certain punishers. This was done by dividing the study into three experiments.
During Experiment I three severe epileptics were exposed to a series of conditions including baseline, token economy condition and baseline. During the …
