Smart passive damper control for greater building earthquake resilience in sustainable cities
The Effect of External Cuff Pressure on Initial Exercise Hyperpnea
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of an increase in intramuscular pressure on ventilatory response at the onset of exercise. Seven subjects participated in this study. We measured ventilatory responses to a 20-s single-arm extension-flexion exercise and passive movement. Each subject performed two kinds of exercise and passive movement in random order: in one, the exercising arm was encircled with a deflated cuff placed arou…
Woman, Demon, and Periphery
In pre-Islamic Arabia, tribal poets were highly esteemed members of society. They played a crucial role in advocating social norms and values through their poetry, chanting of tribal heroes who embodied those values. In this context, the brigand poets called Sa'alik stand out prominently. Their personalities are recounted in tradition as deviants from tribal society blessed with superhuman ability, as unstoppable plunderers who lived in endless p…
As the world turns
In 1925, Emory Bogardus published one of the earliest reports on social distance, examining the opinions of 110 business men and school teachers about 39 ethnic and racial groups. In 1993, we studied the views of 135 middle school teachers, using essentially the same instrument applied to 24 of the same target groups. Comparison of the findings of these two surveys seven decades apart showed that (a) the mean social distances correlated .71 (p < …
Across six nations
Ethnic and Racial Social Distance
Comparison of findings of a 1925 study of social distance with 110 businessmen and teachers and of a 1993 study with 135 teachers, rating 24 ethnic groups on essentially the same Bogardus scale, showed that, while the size of mean distances had decreased, the preferential order of the target peoples had remained remarkably stable over the seven decades, the rank correlation being .86
Space-time analysis of raw material utilization for stone implements of the Jomon culture in Japan
Introduction The materials from which tools are made reflect the intention of tool makers concerning function, use, size and shape of the tools. Even the materials of stone implements in prehistoric times must have reflected the intention of tool makers. Inada (1969: 4) pointed out that the technology of making tools reflects the interacting elements of materials and retouchments. It is a fundamental premise of this paper that understanding patte…

studies over the years from varied perspectives. As James (1899/1958) succinctly put it nearly a century ago: Psychology is a science, and teaching is an art; and sciences never generate arts directly out of themselves. An intermediary inventive mind must make the application by using its originality (pp. 23-24). The mystery lies in the inventive mind that weaves a fabric of complex pattern in the name of teaching. One of the many yarns that goes…

Persons as Researchers
Graduate students address their research roles and options. Options, diversity, decisions, and the human element in the research process were key concepts underlying Persons as Researchers, a crossdisciplinary seminar in which graduate students and active researchers discussed how personal orientations are reflected in the research questions posed, methodologies devised to generate knowledge, derived findings, and products, and suggested applicat…

Stressful Experiences of Children
To see whether professionals' assessments of the stressfulness of children's experiences correspond with those by the young, 39 clinicians (nurses, social workers, school psychologists, speech pathology, special education), 97 teachers, and 61 teachers-to-be rated 20 life events, first making professional judgments for children, and next, inferring judgments of children themselves. They also estimated the frequencies of these events. Within each …
Filipino Children's Ratings of the Stressfulness of Experiences
A total of 156 Filipino fifth and sixth graders rated the stressfulness of 20 life events on a 7-point scale. Little sex differences were detected. Even though the children showed much variation in outlook across the three school-community settings, their judgments were rather uniform, the interschool rs among the scale values ranging from .78 to .81. The overall results revealed that the loss of parent had been rated the most upsetting at 6.76, …

A Note on the Processing of Classroom Observation Records
As discussed elsewhere (Yamamoto, 1967), many of our current observational instruments fail to deal with some important aspects of the unique dynamics of the classroom group. Not to repeat the analysis here, suffice it to say that one source of difficulty is the confusion among several units of behavior and, hence, the equation of what happens in a group with what is done to the group, what the individuals share as group members, or what the grou…
School-Related Attitudes in Middle-School Age Students
Much has been written on American education and various proposals for administrative and curricular changes have been offered to cure its alleged shortcomings (e.g., Committee for Economic Development, 1968; Conant, 1959; Educational Policies Commission, 1961). Interestingly, however, children themselves have been rather consistently left out of the recommendationmaking process. Thus, we find little, if any, information on how pupils themselves p…

Effects of Restriction of Range and Test Unreliability on Correlation Between Measures of Intelligence and Creative Thinking
S ummary . The Lorge‐Thorndike Intelligence Test, Level 3, Form A, and the Minnesota Tests of Creative Thinking (Torrance, 1962) were given to groups of 461 and 827 fifth‐grade American children. Subjects were divided into four groups, according to I.Q. range: below 90, 91 to 110, 111 to 130, and above 130. Linear correlations between I.Q. and creativity score for the whole population and for the sub‐groups gave few significant coefficients. Corr…

Role of Creative Thinking and Intelligence in High School Achievement
A total of 272 Ss of the ninth through twelfth grades of the University of Minnesota High School were administered a battery of tests of creative thinking, Lorge-Thorndike Intelligence Test, and Iowa Tests of Educational Development. Three groups of “gifted” students were identified in each grade: (1) High Intelligence Group—a group in the upper 20% on IQ but not in the upper 20% on creativity, (2) High Creativity Group—a group in the upper 20% o…
Effects of Three Sets of Test Instructions on Scores on an Intelligence Scale
Multiple Achievement Battery and Repeated Measurements
The data from the author's three earlier studies on the interrelationships among creative thinking, intelligence, and school achievement among secondary and elementary students were re-analyzed. The assumption in the earlier reports of statistical independence among subtest scores on multiple achievement batteries was questioned in the present paper and, thus, the data were treated as repeated measurements. In three out of four analyses involved,…
Note on Effects of Practice and Fatigue in Group Testing of Intelligence and Achievement
Intelligence and achievement tests were given in immediate succession to 600 fourth and 600 seventh graders under 2 sequential orders. The effects of fatigue and practice were examined. Order effects were found on both tests for seventh graders but not for fourth graders The results do not seem to be explained by either simple fatigue or practice
