A Zooarchaeological Analysis Of Vertebrate Remains From Chota-Tanasi, A Historic Cherokee Village In East Tennessee, Arthur E. Bogan
Masters Theses
This study involves the examination and analysis of a faunal sample from the historic Overhill Cherokee village of Chota-Tanasi (4MR2-40MR62), Monroe County, Tennessee. A total of 33,385 pieces of bone was examined in an effort to determine which animals were utilized by the Cherokee and the probably importance of each species in the Cherokee diet. Analyses of this material showed that deer, bear, and turkey were the most important animals contributing to the meat diet. Ethnographic and historic sources suggest that the introduction of trade guns may have led to increased exploitation of the bear. Available data indicate that bison …
The Morphology Of The Axillary Border Of The Scapula With Special Reference To The Neandertal Problem, Carol B. Dittner
The Morphology Of The Axillary Border Of The Scapula With Special Reference To The Neandertal Problem, Carol B. Dittner
Masters Theses
Controversy concerning Neandertal man’s place in anatomically modern man’s ancestry continues today, 120 years after the discovery of the first Neandertal at Dusseldorf. The major emphasis of this controversy concerns the cranium. In the postcranial material, however, there are two areas which exhibit morphological differences from modern man, all other postcranial features being within the ranges of variation of modern man. These two different postcranial features are: the morphology of the superior pubic ramus of the innominate and the morphology of the axillary border of the scapula. This thesis is concerned with the latter feature.
While the axillary borders of …

A Comparison Of Low And Middle Socio-Economic Status Blacks On Two Measures Of Intelligence, Anthony Young
Masters Theses
The testing of persons with highly dissimilar cultural backrounds has received increasing attention since mid-century. In America, the practical problems of cross-cultural testing has been chiefly associated with subcultures or minority cultures within the dominate culture. Havinghurst (1951), in citing cultural differences which may affect intelligence performance named social class among the major types of culture in the U.S. A review of the literature revealed that research is close to unanimous in showing that there are significant differences in intelligence performance of children and youth from different socio-economic backrounds.

Androgyny And Its Relationship To Time Competence And Inner-Directedness In A College Sample, Margaret A. Padula
Androgyny And Its Relationship To Time Competence And Inner-Directedness In A College Sample, Margaret A. Padula
Masters Theses
It has been shown that there is a tendency to ascribe different stereotyped sex-roles to men and women (Breecher, 1969; Broverman, Vogel, Braverman, Clarkson, & Rosenkrantz, 1972; Chafetz, 1974; Bem, 1974) and that these sex-roles were previously thought to be the ideal of mental health for both (Braverman, et al., Chesler, 1971). Recent investigation shows that this is not necessarily the case. It was found that a high degree of sex-role typing is not only personally limiting, but also correlated with high anxiety, low self-esteem, and lower overall intelligence (Gray, 1957; Maccoby, 1966; Fasteau, 1974). Bem (1974) has developed the …
