Show moreThis was an investigation of lawyer occupational stress. The responses (n = 310) of a systematic random sample (n = 1,076) of the total in-state Florida attorney population (N = 30,128) were analyzed for statistically significant relationships between the dependent variable, lawyer occupational stress, and the independent variables physical well being, regressive coping techniques, social well being, number of years in practice and the size of law firm. Demographic data were collected., The Lawyer Stress and Life Style Inventory was especially developed for this study. Reliability analysis of pilot test data from the stress scale yielded a Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient of.92., A lawyer occupational stress regression model was tested with 12 possible predictor variables i.e., social well being, alcohol use, cigarette use, physical exercise, caffeine consumption, depression, worry, physical well being, TV, age, weight and height., Depression, age, worry and physical well being were statistically significant at the.05 level. A post hoc stepwise regression analysis added "lack of knowledge about how to relax" to the final prediction model which explained 20 percent of the variance of lawyer occupational stress., The Lawyer Stress Inventory, The Lawyer Stress and Life-Style Inventory and the Lawyer Occupational Stress Index are presented along with an integration of the study with past stress and burnout research, recommendations for future research and suggestions for practical applications.

First, to determine whether William Glasser's Reality Therapy was capable of developing the belief that a group of juvenile delinquents committed to a public residential treatment facility were responsible for their behavior, as measured by Julian B. Rotter's theoretical construct, locus of control (LOC). Second, to determine if these perceptual changes in LOC were associated with changes in delinquent behavior., A review of the literature examined the viability of the LOC construct, relationship between LOC and crime and delinquency, relationship between LOC, crime and delinquency and psychotherapy, and relationship between LOC and Reality Therapy., Instruments utilized in this study were: Elliot and Ageton Self-Report Delinquency Scale, arrest data, Children's Nowicki-Strickland Locus of Control Scale, Siegel Prestige Scale, Reality Therapy Evaluation Scale, weekly school progress reports, and staff log entries., Three of the six results were found as hypothesized: (1) Before treatment, controlling for socioeconomic status, the treatment group was significantly more externally oriented than the comparison group. (2) Between the beginning and end of treatment, the treatment group had a significant change in LOC in an internal direction. They were in treatment for an average of four months. (3) There were no significant changes in LOC for the comparison group over an equal time span., The three results that were not as hypothesized were: (1) There was no relationship found between LOC and in-program behavior. (2) Treatment subjects whose LOC did not move in an internal direction, experienced a significant reduction in delinquent behavior six months after treatment as compared to six months prior to treatment. (3) Treatment subjects whose LOC did not move in an internal direction did not experience a significant reduction in delinquent behavior six months after treatment as compared to six months prior to treatment., Based on the above results, conclusions and implications for treatment were developed.

Show moreThis study is the reassessment of the implementation process of educational innovation in the school cluster systems of rural schools in Thailand. It aims specifically to use path analysis to study the relations between student outcomes and levels of implementation of educational innovation and some other school, community and context factors, such as community participation, community SES, principals' quality, school quality and teacher quality., Data used in this study were collected separately by the Thai Office of the National Education Commission Research Committee during 1979 and 1980, but were only partially analyzed, with the analysis based on the presumption that experimental controls were sufficient. Since there were many potentially relevant differences between the experimental and control clusters besides treatment, the investigation re-analyzed the data, developing a causal model of the processes affecting student achievement outcomes., The results of the causal analysis indicated that student past knowledge (pretest) explain 80 percent (R('2) = .797) of the variance in the posttest. This indicates the general problems faced by rural schools, where inadequate teachers, educational materials and facilities make it difficult for them to have much impact. The analysis showed school clustering to have no direct effect on student outcomes, but to have some indirect effect through student past knowledge (pretest). It also indicated that there is no direct effect on student outcomes (posttest) from principal quality or school quality, but there is an indirect effect of school quality (availability of books and library) through student past knowledge (pretest). One teacher quality factor which did have a direct effect on student outcomes is the number of grades taught by one teacher. In other words, the more grades a teacher has to teach, the lower the student scores of the pupils she or he teaches. These results have research and policy implications for the development of rural schools in Thailand and are discussed in the conclusions.

Show moreThe effectiveness of two drill and practice methods, computer-assisted instruction and workbook, was compared using six learning disabled and six normal learning students. Both instructional methods provided highly structured drill and practice of multiplication facts, but differed on several important dimensions: immediacy of feedback, individually-tailored practice of problems, and mode of presentation. A combination group/single-subject methodological approach was employed to determine any idiosyncratic or group performance differences between drill and practice methods or any group differences between learning disabled and normal students. While overall, few differences were found between the instructional methods, they did differ with respect to when learning occurred. Also, individual data suggest that for some of the students, performance varied according to the type of drill and practice employed. The performance of learning disabled and normal subjects was surprisingly similar across measures., It was concluded that the highly structured nature of both modes of drill and practice eliminated differences in performance between the two groups. Also, while computer and workbook instruction differed on some basic structural features, these characteristics did not have a significant impact on student achievement.

Show moreThe purpose of this study was to determine how audiovisual (AV) instruction is perceived in American Library Schools accredited by the American Library Association (ALA). This study compared the perceptions of deans and professors concerning AV instruction in their schools. Deans were selected as part of the population because of their decision-making, administrative positions in the schools. The professors, who are knowledgeable in the AV area, provided information concerning actual AV instruction. The total population was 63 deans and 120 professors. Data were collected using mailed questionnaires. The return rate was 81 percent for deans and 80 percent for professors., This study was designed to find (1) The degree to which deans of library schools agree with their audiovisual teaching faculty on the importance of audiovisual instruction in their schools; and (2) The current issues, programs, problems, and trends of audiovisual instruction and their supporting facets., This study found that deans' and professors' perceptions concerning audiovisual instruction differ significantly in six of the ten statements furnished., Audiovisual instruction seems to have a number of issues; some schools have closed their audiovisual programs while others are developing new ones. There is still a lack of professional and non-professional support. There is a trend toward increasing the number of integrated audiovisual courses and decreasing the number of separate audiovisual courses.

This study focuses on a body of literature heretofore uninvestigated and little-known.

Show moreThis study focuses on a body of literature heretofore uninvestigated and little-known. During the last seven years of his life, Charles Tournemire composed a half-dozen symphonic organ works: Trois Poemes, Sei Fioretti, Fantaisie Symphonique, Symphonie-Choral, Symphonie Sacree, and Deux Fresques Symphoniques Sacrees. These works seem important because they represent a digression from the practices of other symphonic-organ composers and because they represent a corpus of works in the same style and genre which may be presumed to demonstrate Tournemire's unique symphonic style as applied to the organ. This study concentrates on two goals: a style analysis of this literature and an analysis of the individual works., As a background to the study, a professional biography has been compiled and certain influences are discussed, including the very particular French Organ School-training under Franck and Widor, the development of the "symphonic" organ by Aristide Cavaille-Coll, and the restored use of plainsong in the Roman Catholic church in France. Two chapters are devoted specifically to symphonic techniques: one dealing with form and the thematic process, emphasizing Tournemire's handling of the Beethoven variation techniques; the other with his pioneering concept of "orchestration" for the organ, which involves tessitura and texture as well as registration. A chapter on harmony dispels some of the myths as well as pointing up certain idiosyncrasies, such as the use of a specific chord-family at climactic cadences, regardless of the tonal surroundings. A chapter on rhythm investigates the elements of its free character and its role in formal design. The concluding chapters provide an analytical outline of each work accompanied by a discussion of particular points of interest and a summary of style characteristics. A list of errata discovered in the published editions of these works is compiled in an appendix.

Show moreThis study explored and identified factors that affect the degree of implementation of population education in Indonesia. For this purpose, 382 teachers were selected purposively from junior high and high schools in the Province of Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia., The degree of implementation was measured with a nine item index, through which the teachers were requested to report their activities that were related to population education., Five blocks of variables were hypothesized to be related to the degree of implementation: (1) socio demographic variables including sex, age, education, educational background and teaching experience; (2) job related variables including salary, teaching load, work load and teaching status; (3) school characteristic variables including location, sponsorship and level; (4) teacher perception of school work environment variables; and (5) variables related to population education and Curriculum 75., Using multiple regression, the unique contribution of each variable to the variance of the degree of implementation was estimated. It was found that teacher's exposure to population education facilities and acceptability of population education were strongly related to the degree of implementation: the first contributed 10.3% ((DELTA)R('2) = 103) increment to the variance explained, while the latter 4.6% ((DELTA)R('2) = .046)., Four other variables were also found to be significantly related to the degree of implementation but their (DELTA)R('2) were relatively low: age contributed .8%, teaching assignment 2.9%, teaching status 1.3% and school level .7%. The unique contributions of all the other variables were found to be insignificant., Together, the five block of variables explained 55% (R('2) = .55) of the variance of the degree of implementation., Based on its findings this study suggests some general policy recommendations such as: (1) the teacher training should include a special training in population education; (2) the distribution system of the population education textbooks and other related materials should be improved; and (3) the general public especially the parents should be made more aware of the nature and the goal of population education.

Abstract/Description
The issue of income inequality was neglected in the recent economic literature until perhaps the last two decades or so. The reason for this neglect may stem from the deterministic and mechanical way the issue has been treated in the works of the neoclassical economists. However, the classical economists whom many consider predecessors of neoclassicism represent a contrast. This is particularly evident in the works of Adam Smith, John Stuart Mill, and Jeremy Bentham.

Show moreThe issue of income inequality was neglected in the recent economic literature until perhaps the last two decades or so. The reason for this neglect may stem from the deterministic and mechanical way the issue has been treated in the works of the neoclassical economists. However, the classical economists whom many consider predecessors of neoclassicism represent a contrast. This is particularly evident in the works of Adam Smith, John Stuart Mill, and Jeremy Bentham. Their writings reflect on one hand their belief that their ideal economic system would be more egalitarian and more fair than the existing system and on the other, that they were concerned about the income inequality which inevitably would result from their recommended system of laissez-faire. Smith expressed his concern for giving "the business aspect of life" a priority, i.e. that it might be in conflict with what might be called "the virtuous aspect of life". And Mill, carrying on the tradition of his predecessors, but confronted with considerable pressures appearing against the system, uneasily put his theories to test against those which promised a more humane society than the system of private property was able to offer during his days., Their concern, however, does not imply serious redistributional measures. Smith's conclusion was, that any inequalities, either in income or in property ownership which were the result of competitive market processes, were just. Mill's final, and rather limited, redistributional recommendations were in accordance with the view that the business aspect and economic growth was to have a priority, although he explicitly stated that some income equalization was to be desired. Jeremy Bentham, who was more briefly discussed, advocated inheritance taxes, a redistributional measure which would not compromise "security", a criterion he accorded higher priority than equality.
