▼ The purpose of this quantitative study was to investigate teachers’ implementation levels of best practices in reading. This study examined the frequency of instructional reading strategies serving as predictors of student success in the End of Course Assessments (ECA) for Algebra I and English Grade 10. This study reviewed current literature to determine the depth of the problem and to study effective research strategies in order to provide a better understanding of the secondary reading issue. The study also reviewed the specific reading strategies in Indiana high schools in relationship to results of Algebra I and English Grade 10 of ECA in lowest poverty schools and highest poverty schools in Indiana. A Qualtrics survey was constructed and emailed to teacher participants. The electronic survey was separated into two sections with the first asking information about the school and the teacher, and the second asking the teachers to respond to the frequency with which the strategies of vocabulary, summarization, prior knowledge, fluency, and visualization were emphasized in classes. Each strategy included four questions for a total of 20 questions. A total of 66 teachers responded to the survey; 29 teachers from low-poverty level shcools and 37 teachers from high-poverty levels schools. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple regressions. Multiple regressions were used to address the four research questions that were used to structure the research for this study. The predictor variables do explain a significant amount of variance within the Algebra 1 ECA scores. This was determined as the significance value was lower than the given alpha level (.05) with F (5, 23) = 2.66, p = .049. ANOVA results for all predictor variables in Algebra I ECA did not reveal that the use of reading strategies is related to the success of passing the Algebra I For low-poverty level schools. The multiple regressions conducted did not prove that frequency of research-based instructional reading strategies taught in high schools served as a predictor of standardized testing performance in English 10 ECA for low-poverty schools or high-poverty schools. This study provided information as to the selection of reading strategies as they contribute to students’ ability to pass the ECA. This was significant because it did not suggest the importance of instructional reading programs and strategies in high school. The study, through quantitative data, did not prove whether the use of reading programs and strategies will improve the students passing scores in the ECA. The study provide a better understanding why some students get through their early years of school only, to get to high school and have a difficult time with reading and become one of the numbers of students who drop out.

▼ The ability to read is the foundational skill which is taught in elementary schools across the state of Indiana. It is a complex process which allows children to derive meaning from printed text. Reading is the basis for learning and growth to continue during a child’s educational life (Opitz & Rasinski, 1998). Over time throughout history, the ability to read is and has been the great equalizer for people (Ruddell, Ruddell, & Singer, 1994). Reading has been taught and evaluated in many different ways (Groves, 2009). The state of Indiana has developed a standardized assessment to measure a child’s reading ability and comprehension skills at the end of third grade. This summative assessment is known as the Indiana Reading Evaluation and Determination or IREAD-3 (IDOE IREAD-3, n.d.). The assessment is based on Indiana Academic Standards to measure the foundational reading skills a child has developed by the end of third grade. It is used to determine promotion to fourth grade or retention in third grade (Title 511 Indiana State Board of Education, 2011). A mixed method study was conducted to determine if relationships existed between the predictor variables of vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, and teacher pedagogy and the criterion variable of passing percentage rates on the IREAD-3 assessment. In the quantitative survey, two null hypotheses were tested. The first null determined if the composite scores for vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, and classroom pedagogy of elementary primary literacy teachers predict a statistically significant proportion of the variance on the IREAD-3 pass rate among schools of affluence. The second null determined if the composite scores for vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, and classroom pedagogy of elementary primary literacy teachers predict a statistically significant proportion of the variance on the IREAD-3 pass rate among schools of poverty. A multiple linear regression was utilized to examine both hypotheses. The results of the regression analysis found that a linear combination of predictor variables did not explain a statistically significant amount of variance with IREAD-3 passing rate percentages for schools of affluence or schools of poverty. Therefore, the null hypotheses were retained. The second part of the mixed method study focused on qualitative case study interviews with three building level principals and one teacher. During the interviews, five themes developed after the field notes and interview transcripts were coded and analyzed. The common themes which emerged were: 1. Teachers have time during the school day to meet together to collaborate, plan, and discuss literacy skill development of their children. 2. Schools promote and embrace parents and volunteers as essential components which are included in the learning process during the school day. 3. Teachers voluntarily spend time after school to tutor students on a school-wide basis. 4. Learning is intentionally broken down into small groups…

▼ Context. Entry-level athletic training education is currently transitioning to include evidence-based practice (EBP) into their curriculums to continue to establish athletic training as a prestigious allied health profession. Objective. To determine senior athletic training student (SATS) perceptions of EBP and examine the self-reported behaviors of EBP to gain insight into the instructional methods currently used to educate athletic training students in EBP as the method of delivering care to patients. Design. Grounded theory study Setting. Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education accredited undergraduate athletic training programs. Participants. Thirteen senior athletic training students [11=female, 2=male, currently completing their last semester/quarter of their athletic training education program (ATEP)] were interviewed to discover their perceptions, self-reported behaviors of EBP. Data Collection and Analysis. SATS perceptions and self-reported behaviors of EBP were discovered and explored qualitatively using grounded theory methodology. Constant comparison and coding allowed theories to be developed. Peer debriefing and multiple analyst triangulation evaluated the emerging theories to establish trustworthiness. Results. The analysis revealed that SATS have a positive perception of utilizing research to guide or supplement their clinical practices. The emerging theories demonstrated that the SATS have knowledge of how to use EBP when providing care to their patients. The perceived instructional methods focused on acquiring medical literature, with slight emphasis on appraising and applying it into clinical practice. Some ATEP assignments required SATS to acquire and appraise medical literature, which in turn some of the SATS were able to use in their clinical practices. SATS also expressed acquiring medical literature on their own to address a problem in their clinical practices, but the SATS did not appraise the found medical literature nor discuss it with their patients. The SATS did express confidence in their ability to communicate to their patients and establish trust by educating their patients. Conclusions. The SATS interviewed attained a scholastic knowledge of EBP. Other medical professions re-structured their curricula to have students use EBP. The changes in athletic training curriculum have allowed athletic training students to continue the incorporation of EBP. The instructional methods, described by the SATS, used to teach EBP do not appear to be as structured as other medical professions. Through the continued integration of EBP education into all levels of athletic training education, the profession can continue to enhance itself as a prestigious allied health profession.

▼ This study sought to explore the different factors that caused stress for correctional officers, its consequences, and the coping techniques officers used to combat stress. The goals were to discover the antecedents that created stress, uncover the results, disclose the primary strategies used to cope with stress, and determine the helpfulness of these coping strategies. Univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses were used to accentuate the factors that caused stress for correctional officers. Data were collected through survey administration at three correctional institutions, representing multiple security levels (minimum, medium and maximum) in a southern state. The final sample included 197 completed surveys from correctional officers employed by these three institutions. Those correctional officers who participated completed survey packets inclusive of the following measures: occupational resource and qualitative questionnaires, Maslach Burnout Inventory, and the Carver Coping Survey. Many correctional officers reported reasonably high levels of job stress. To support the research hypotheses, the following data were gathered: 1) job stress could be attributed to an overall lack of job satisfaction, inmates, and a lack of support from administrations, and 2) job stress could be positively correlated to coping strategies. Officer's response to questions about stress and resulting coping strategies discovered insufficent salaries and overtime demands were the two most commonly reported causes of stress. Additionally, certain types of stressors accentuated the plight of the correctional officer, e.g. lack of input into decision making, prison's security level, lack of support from administrations, etc.... Moreover, specific questions were analyzed to determine the most frequently reported relaxation techniques used to cope with stress. The most popular methods were exercising and seeking religion. Other popular coping mechanisms used were seeking support from family, and participating in social activities.

▼ Faculty and administrator's attitudes are believed to be important in planning and implementing successful interprofessional education in the academic environment with the goal of increasing health sciences students' competencies in interprofessional collaborative practice. The purpose of this study was to examine attitudes toward interprofessional education and identify attributes that may have an impact on those attitudes. A survey was distributed to all faculty and administrators in the health care sciences field at this institution. Using scales adopted from peer-reviewed literature, respondents were asked questions designed to rate their attitudes toward health care teams, interprofessional education, and interprofessional learning in the academic setting. Information about each respondent's academic discipline, professional role, years worked in higher education, years of experience with interprofessional education, and gender were also collected. One open ended question was included. A 32% response rate from those surveyed (N = 42) indicated that discipline had a significant effect on attitudes towards health care teams, F(4, 35) = 4.10, p = .008, ω²= .24, as well as on attitudes towards interprofessional education, F(4, 35) = 3.28, p = .022, ω² = .17. On average, men scored lower (M = 3.96) than women (M = 4.30) in attitudes towards health care teams, t(38) = -2.20, p = .034, two-tailed, r = .36. The 95% confidence interval for the mean difference of -.34 was -.65 to .03. Respondents who reported no, or some experience in interprofessional education scored lower (M = 3.74) on attitudes towards interprofessional learning in the academic setting than those who reported being experienced (M = 4.24), t(37) = -3.15, p = .003, two-tailed, r = .46. The 95% confidence interval for the mean difference of -.51 was -.83 to -.18. The findings indicated a positive attitude of faculty and administration towards interprofessional education, especially with respect to the importance of understanding collaborative roles and developing communication skills needed for interprofessional endeavors. However, there appeared to be less confidence in the feasibility of providing interprofessional learning opportunities in the current academic setting. Discipline, gender, and experience in interprofessional education were all significant attributes to overall attitudinal responses towards interprofessional education. These findings may be useful in planning successful faculty development opportunities for interprofessional education.

▼ Shoulder ROM stretching is often a component of injury treatment and rehabilitation. Kinesio Tape (KT) is also theorized to increase ROM. KT in conjunction with additional therapies such stretching is not reported in the literature, specifically regarding the shoulder. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of KT in conjunction with a stretching program on shoulder ROM arc. DESIGN: Experimental, pre-test/post-test randomized design. Participants were assigned to one of four treatment groups (control, KT only, stretch, and KT/stretch). Measurements were obtained before and after treatments on 1^st day and 4^th day of experiment. IR and ER were measured three times in both directions with an inclinometer while supine. Interrater reliability of IR was r = .91, and ER was r = .96. SETTING: Data collection occurred in a university laboratory. PARTICIPANTS: 93 subjects, ages18-40 with no history of shoulder injury or surgery volunteered to participate. Volunteers were randomly selected and divided into the 4 groups (control group = 22, KT group = 23, stretch =22, KT/stretch = 22) constituting males (n=37) and females (n=56). INTERVENTIONS: We calculated frequencies and means to assess demographic data. We analyzed the data using two separate ANOVA to identify the differences between gender and the control/KT group ROM arc and between pre and post treatment control/KT treatment groups. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The stretching only group increased ROM arc significantly compared to the control, KT only and KT/stretch groups. Females had increased shoulder ROM arc in each group with control and treatment. RESULTS: ANOVA results indicated a significant main effect between the 4 groups (F3,89 = 4.138, p=.009). A pairwise comparison identified a significant difference between the stretch group and control, KT and KT/stretch groups (p=.002) with a 12% increase in ROM arc. Shoulder ROM arc for women was significantly different indicating increases for each measurement on day 4; pre KT removal (F1,91 = 14.287, p=.000) and post KT removal (F 1,47 = 3.291, p=.076). Women had an average 5% increase in ROM arc compared to men 4 days after baseline measurements for all groups. CONCLUSION: Results suggest that KT has no effect on shoulder ROM arc and that stretching incurs the greatest gains in ROM. Interestingly females displayed a significant increase in ROM arc compared to men and therefore gender differences should be assessed relative to ROM increases. KT may have some beneficial properties including stabilization, blood flow and pain and should be assessed for those variables. In addition tape placement should also be evaluated to determine differing taping technique efficacy on ROM.

▼ Technology has become an essential component of the teaching-learning process, and online learning, in particular, has captivated the interest of many educational institutions throughout the world. Web-based learning has provided both students and teachers with new and unique ways of communicating with each other. As a result, many studies have been conducted to investigate factors affecting the establishment of productive communications in web-based settings. Likewise, the focus of this study is how the number of courses completed and the participants' perception of their English language competence impacted their preferences for synchronous and asynchronous web-based learning in English instruction and in Arabic instruction. The sample consisted of 82 Saudi undergraduate students enrolled at Indiana State University during the spring of 2011. The study used a hard copy modified version of a survey that was designed by Burton (2009) containing 27 items, which were divided into three parts. A four-point Likert scale was utilized to gain an overall score of students' preferences for synchronous and asynchronous web-based courses. Descriptive statistics (frequencies, means, and standard deviations, skewness, and kurtosis), one-way ANOVA tests, and repeated measures test (paired samples t-test) were utilized to answer the questions presented in this study. The results revealed that there was no significant difference in student preferences for synchronous web-based courses delivered in English or Arabic on the basis of grade level or the learners' perceptions of their level of English language proficiency. There were also no significant differences between preferences for synchronous learning in English (L2) and preferences for synchronous learning in Arabic (L1). The results also showed that the participants had greater preferences for synchronous online courses over asynchronous online courses. These findings mirror those found in earlier studies. The descriptive statistics revealed that learners had a strong preference for having direct conversations with the teacher, having more flexibility, studying on their own, and learning new materials through discussions with others or through having someone explain it to them.

▼ The purpose of this study was to gauge the perception of teachers on the use of mobile technology, specifically cell phones, as an instructional tool to engage students in learning. Cell phones are the most ubiquitous piece of technology in the world. Their multiple functions can put the most up-to-date information at the fingertips of the user. However, schools have been slow to embrace these devices out of fear and ignorance on how to use their capabilities. Research is limited on this subject; most coming from cell phone manufacturers and related service providers. The opportunity to explore this technology tool as an instructional aid and provide educators with data to support the use of the cell phone in the classroom was both timely and evoking. The study queried 500 public school teachers in the Midwest on their proficiency with technology, their perception of the importance in using technology, their opinions on using technology in the classroom, and their specific integration of cell phones in their lessons. Of the respondents, 28.5% had experience using cell phones in the classroom. This was in comparison to national statistics of 75% of students having daily access to a phone. A Mann-Whitney U test found no significant difference between STEM teachers and teachers of other disciplines in their perceptions of the importance of using technology in the classroom. However, when conducting a t-test with the same two groups of teachers there was a significant difference in their ability to design and access lessons using technology. STEM teachers rated themselves at a higher skill level than did the teachers of other disciplines. A Pearson correlation examined the relationship between teacher comfort level with technology and the teacher's ability to design and access lessons using technology. A significant, positive relationship was found in that as the level of technology use increased the teacher ability to design and access lessons increased. With an r value of .742 this correlation was considered strong. The question posed was "Are levels of student engagement different based on the frequency of integration of technology?" Through the use of a one-way ANOVA there was no significant difference in student engagement based on the frequency of its use. A multiple regression was used to determine which of the nine proficiency indicators serve as predictors for student engagement. Two proficiencies, "using software productivity tools" and "locating learning opportunities needed to advance my technology skills" were both found to be significant negative predictors, and "proficiency of troubleshooting problems that occur when using technology" was a significant positive predictor of student engagement. Student engagement was discussed through the summary of experience responses of 44 teachers surveyed. These written responses provided depth to the study when investigating teacher perceptions of student engagement when cell…

▼ The crayfish fauna of West Virginia’s Ohio River floodplain was surveyed from 2004 through 2009. From this survey, nine species from four genera were documented inhabiting the floodplain. Zoogeography, biology, and conservation status is provided for all nine crayfishes. The dominant genus along the floodplain is Cambarus, which includes Cambarus carinirostris, Cambarus bartonii cavatus, Cambarus robustus and Cambarus thomai. Cambarus thomai is the most ubiquitous burrowing species occurring along the floodplain. The genus Orconectes consists of two native species, Orconectes obscurus and Orconectes sanbornii; and two invasive taxa, O. virilis and O. rusticus. Orconectes obscurus has experienced a range extension to the south and occupies streams formerly occupied by O. sanbornii. Both invasive taxa were allied with anthropogenic habitats and disturbance gradients. The genera Fallicambarus and Procambarus are represented by a single species. Both Fallicambarus fodiens, and Procambarus acutus are limited to the historic preglacial Marietta River Valley. Several invertebrate and vertebrate taxa utilize crayfish burrows for various aspects of their life history, making the conservation of burrowing crayfishes important to the maintenance of both crayfishes and burrow obligate species. Very little research has examined habitat parameters for burrowing crayfish occupancy of a given location. Occupancy rates were modeled for two primary burrowing crayfishes, Fallicambarus fodiens and Cambarus thomai that occur in the historic Marietta River Valley associated with the Ohio and Kanawha River confluence in West Virginia. Although the influence of covariates on site occupancy differed between species, forested habitats were important for floodplain populations of F. fodiens and C. thomai. Conservation actions should preserve forest tracts along river floodplains to ensure stable F. fodiens populations. The ecology of primary burrowing crayfishes is poorly understood, especially for high-elevation species. An ecological study of Cambarus ( Jugicambarus) dubius was conducted at Terra Alta, Preston County, West Virginia (elevation 781 m). The study provided life history information including size at sexual maturity, age cohort designation, and age estimation. During the summer of 2008, West Virginia’s Cheat River basin’s crayfish fauna was surveyed. Survey sites (n = 66) were randomly generated via GIS. Crayfishes were collected with seines or by hand and habitat and physiochemical parameters were noted at each site. Cambarus b. bartonii, C. carinirostris, and O. obscurus were previously documented within the Cheat River system by Schwartz and Meredith (1962). Jezerinac et al. (1995) documented Cambarus carinirostris, Cambarus dubius,Cambarus monongalensis and O. obscurus occurring within the basin. Our efforts…

▼ Several commentaries have been written about the role that Nature has played in the literature of early America, including books by Wilson Ober Clough,Hans Huth and Norman Foerster. Each of these studies, however has virtually ignored a vital aspect of the Man-Nature relationship as it was conceived and as it matured in the young nation. From the beginning, the American view of Nature was influenced and often dictated by the American view of God and a complete picture of the role of Nature in this nation's literature cannot be gained without a consideration also of the role of God in those same writings. The thrust of this study is a consideration of the inter-relationships between God,Man,and nature as they were perceived and recorded by Jonathan Edwards, Philip Morin Freneau, William Cullen Bryant and Ralph Waldo Emerson. These four writers of the 18th and 19th centuries represent not only the essayists and poets of their respective centuries, but also some of the foremost religious, political and philosophical movements of their day. Edwards, like many Puritans before him, viewed Nature with a critical eye, recording the intricacies of her minutest forms with scientific interest. But more than this, he reveled in her beauties, finding in them a muted reflection of the ineffable beauty and majesty of God. Seeing in the workings of Nature shadows of Divine percepts, he began to compile a catalogue of those lessons which god had revealed for the edification of the Saints. Puritan doctrine imposed rigid controls upon the acquisition of these teachings, however. As Edwards taught these lessons, which were not new revelations of God, but rather illustrations of Biblical truths, could only be perceived by God’s Elect and then only when God chose to reveal them. Freneau’s view of Nature as teacher placed her in a role of greater importance. As a Deist, he believed that nature did not simply illustrate Biblical truths but was herself Man’s Bible. Like a book of ready answers about life and death, nature had been prepared in advance by a new remote God, who having fashioned a perfect universe to function in faultless rhythm, then sat back to simply watch it work. Rejecting the Puritan doctrine of the Elect, Freneau argued furthermore that Nature’s lessons were available to any individual who in earnestness sought them. Like Freneau, Bryant rejected any suggestion that nature’s secrets could be understood only by a chosen few. He found instead in the forests and mountains a vast and majestic cathedral in which an individual could reach upward with nature in earnest and loving worship of the creator. But he saw in nature, as well, an eager and sympathetic confidant, a comforter and a guide whose voice spoke freely to any who sought communion with her. Emerson, the Transcendentalist believed that through the very act of creation the Spirit of God flowed into and through every aspect of nature, making every particle in existence from the mightiest king to the smallest grain of sand partakers of his divinity.…

▼ "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not parish but have everlasting life." Contemporary Christian literature is becoming first choice in public libraries and bookstores throughout the country. From novels about end-time prophesy to autobiographies of world-renowned pastors, works written for and about Christians have reached an all-time high. Before it Rains is indeed, according to the scriptural definition of salvation found in the King James Version of the bible, a contemporary Christian novel; the characters must go through the biblical process of accepting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior before receiving a newness or fulfillment of life. Moreover, this novel presents a particular focus on the African American community. Not only does the audience receive a glimpse of life from an African American perspective, but the reader also experiences a unique style of worship and the importance of religion in the black church. The reader is introduced to three religious characters, and the chapters in which these characters are introduced present strong images of the African American church such as handclapping and tambourines. Although Before it Rains is a contemporary Christian novel, it can also be considered a romantic work. Elements of romantic writing that can be found frequently throughout the book include emphasis placed on emotions, emphasis upon freedom and individuality, and emphasis on imagination and fantasy. Quite often, prophetic dreams occur, and the reader is presented with flashbacks of the characters' pasts. Before it Rains does not appeal to any specific audience; just as salvation, according to Romans 10:9, is open to all who believe, this novel serves as a nontraditional gateway for those who are curious about accepting Christ into their lives. Readers are presented with realistic characters who, like themselves, may be somewhat skeptical when it comes to spiritual concerns.

▼ This study investigated the influence of writing instruction on the reading comprehension and the syntactic writing development of second-grade students.Research has shown that instruction in writing summaries can increase reading comprehension and improve writing skills significantly.Thus,this study attempted to determine the effect of writing instruction on reading comprehension and syntactic writing development.This study employed two second-grade classrooms.Classrooms were randomly assigned to experimental or control groups.Within each group,subjects were divided into low,average,and high reading ability subgroups.Reading ability was determined according to scores received on the Comprehensive Tests of Basic Skills(CTBS),which was administered prior to treatment.The experimental treatment consisted of instruction in writing basal story summaries,while the control treatment consisted of writing short answers to questions provided in the basal workbook.All students received four weeks of writing instruction prior to the posttest,which required them to write a story and answer multiple choice items in reading comprehension,language mechanics,and language expression.An analysis of variance and covariance with repeated measures was used o compare mean scores of the experimental and control groups of low,average,and high reading ability students.No significant differences were found when the dependent reading comprehension variable was considered.However,statistically significant differences were found between the experimental and control groups post and delayed posttest scores when the dependent writing variable was considered.Specifically,there were significant differences found in language mechanic scores,the number of sentences written,the number of words per sentence,and the number of T-units per sentence.It is important to point out that the mean scores of the experimental group tended to be consistently higher than the mean scores of the control groups on post and delayed posttest trials.Thus,a tendency was established which indicated the desirable effect of summary writing instruction and the need to replicate the research over a longer period of time.

▼ Previous scholarship has suggested that the frescoes of the Spanish Chapel at Santa Maria Novella in Florence were influenced by the celebration of Corpus Domini and by the philosophy of St.Thomas Aquinas.Although scholars have agreed that such influences exist,few have demonstrated the supposed relationships among frescoes images and Aquinas words or Corpus Domini's text.This Study presents an analysis of the frescoes in the terms of Aqunia's stated philosophy and the text for the mess of Corpus Domini.The frescoes contain images of Aquinas enthroned and Aquinas teaching.The image of Aquinas enthroned above figures representing theological and secular knowledge seems to have been drawn from Aquinas Summa Theologica.In support of the theory that Summa Theologica inspired the image of Aquinas on the west wall,passages from Summa Theologica are cited.The east wall contains an illustration of Aquinas teaching heretics.Aquinas Summa Contra Gentiles may have inspired the image of Aquinas on the east wall.Passages from Summa Contra Gentiles are cited to support that theory.It seems that the Spanish Chapel's founder desired that the chapel should reflect the clebration of Corpus Domini.Although previous scholarship has suggested a relationship between the celebration of Corpus Domini and the frescoes,no specific texts from the celebration had been cited.This thesis,however examines the founder's will as it relates to Corpus Domini and relates the texts of the mass and prcoession of Corpus Domini to appreciate sections of the fresco.Based upon comparisons between the chapel's frescoes and the texts mentioned above,the study offers an explanation of the Spanish Chapel frescoes as a combination of elements from Corpus Domini and Aquinas writings.The celebration of Corpus Domini advocated belief in a transubstantiated Eucharist,a belief which distinguished the faithful from the heretics.Aquinas Summa Theologica contains guidelines for identifying heretics and for persuading them to return to the Catholic faith.Aquinas Summa Contra Gentiles contains instructions for converting Muslims and Jews to Catholicism.Considering these facts,the study offers a theory that the purpose of the frescoes in the Spanish Chapel seems to ahve been to instruct the Dominican friars at Santa Maria Novella about how to recognize and combat hereby and unbelief.

▼ This study was designed to determine whether children who, on the basis of their Rorschach Erlebnistypus score,were identified as being introversive or extraversive differed with respect to their approaches to certain novel problem-solving tasks.It was thought that the extra-tensives would characteristically manipulate the task materials more and make more mistakes than would the introversives,owing to the notion that the introversives internalize more of their manipulations and attempted solutions.Sixty-nine sixth and seventh graders at a university-run laboratory school were administered the Rorschach.From that number fifteen introversive and fifteen extratensive children were identified who were also given three subtests from the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised(WISC-R).These subtests were the Block Design,Object Assembly,and Mazes.Systems were devised to count the number of manipulations made by the chidren on the Block Design and Object Assembly subtests and the number of errors committed on the Mazes subtest.These manipulations and errors were recorded and mean manipulation and error scores were tabulated for both the introversive and extratensive groups.T-tests,using these mean scores,tested the hypotheses of this study.The hypotheses of this study were: 1)Extratensive children make significantly more manipulations than do introversive children on the Block Design subtest of the WISC-R. 2)Extratensive children make significantly more manipulations than do introversive children on the Object Assembly subtest of the WISC-R. 3) Extratensive children make significantly more errors than do introversive children on the Mazes subtest of the WISC-R.The results of the analysis of the data revealed that the introversive group performed fewer manipulations than did the extratensive group on the Block Design subtest as expected but not on the Object Assembly subtest.Furthermore,the extratensives did not commit more errors on the Mazes subtest than did the introversies.It was concluded that introversive and extratensive children do differ with respect to problem-solving styles.It is not known,however what tasks are required so that these differences are evident.
