Children's Satisfaction with Private Music Lessons
Feelings of satisfaction are vital to learning because they provide the motivation necessary for children to continue to participate in private music lessons. The aims of this study were to examine factors related to satisfaction with private music lessons from a child's perspective and to develop a reliable, valid, and practical measure of music lesson satisfaction to help improve private music instruction. Factor analysis using a sample of 568 …
Nuclear weapons attitudes in relation to dogmatism, mental representation of parents, and image of a foreign enemy
Undergraduate students (N = 82) were compared on attitudes toward nuclear armament, Rokeach Dogmatism, and the Blatt measure of developmental level of representations of parents and a foreign enemy. As predicted, opposition to nuclear armament was associated with less dogmatism and higher levels of representations of both parents and a foreign enemy. The level of enemy image was independent of the developmental level of representation of parents.…
Depth Picture Percepition in Relation to Cognitive Style and Training in Non-Western Children
The present study tested hypotheses that non-Western subjects' difficulties in judging depth in linear pictures are a function of individual patterns of perceptual organization (operationally defined as cognitive style measured by tests of field dependence/independence), and that training in depth perception tasks or field independence would improve performance in both areas. Nigerian fourth graders (n = 172) were administered depth picture perce…
Effect of Enriched Stimulus and Instructional Conditions on Verbal Abstracting Ability in Acute Schizophrenics

In addition, an attempt was made to determine if improved performance under enriched conditions was related to the kind of disturbances in attention measured by the Perceptual Experience Inventory. The results showed that the schizophrenics scored significantly lower than a group…
