▼ This case study explored the perspectives of four elementary school teachers employed at a school that displays a higher than normal student mobility rate. The study attempted to examine if there are prevailing attitudes and opinions regarding how mobile students are viewed by the teacher and classmates, how mobile students affect this school from a teaching standpoint and from a social aspect, and if there are special preparations or specific teacher training provided in a highly mobile school as a prerequisite to adequately address the problems associated with mobile students. Problems that may be evident with mobile students are incomplete transfer records, no prescribed protocol for the pre-assessment of student learning skills, lack of parent involvement in the school and community, and methods of identifying learning gaps created by moving from school to school. After reviewing the available literature and previous research studies in this area, the researcher chose to examine mobility from the classroom teachers' point if view. A qualitative research design and methods were used to collect and analyze data. Questions posed in an interview were used to direct this study and sought to establish a relationship between student mobility and academic performance. The study sought to uncover specific data regarding the teachers? perceptions on the definition of mobility, the practices utilized by the teachers in assessing, placing and teaching the mobile student, what effects mobility has on the elementary classroom, and to identify successful strategies in dealing with the mobile student. Findings of this study indicate the participants exhibit a great deal of pride in the teaching profession. A love of children is evident in their classroom routines and personal attempts to quickly and effectively incorporate new students into their classroom. The data further revealed the mobile student is usually below expectations in academic performance, are usually from lower socio-economic families, and move mostly for economic reasons. This project reaffirms that the classroom teacher is the main factor in the success or failure of transient students. Advisors/Committee Members: C. Thomas Holmes.

▼ In the last decades a lot of studies have done to check the Pilates' exercises' positive effects on the body and usage of this method in rehabilitation and physiotherapy field. As there are too many complication people face to because of bad posture we decided to purpose our current study on determining the effects of Pilates' exercises on posture and chest mobility. The group of ten medical students served as subjects in this study. All of them were healthy and young in the range of 20-26 years old. All they performed the basic mat Pilates’ exercises once a week in a 10-week period, each session was 50-minute consisting of basic core and back muscle strengthening program mixed with special Pilates breathing exercises. All the subjects underwent special tests performed by one of the last year physiotherapy students. The outcomes of the tests were recorded before and after the 10-week period of study. The tests included in this study were: Schober’s test, finger to the floor distance test, occiput to wall distance test, distance between to scapulas test, and distance between acromion to opposite anterior superior iliac spine test. We demonstrated improvement in the occiput to wall distance (p<0.002), in the distance of acromion to opposite anterior iliac spine (p<0.001 in the right side and p<0.002 in the left side), in the scores of Schober's test (p<0.001), and in the finger to floor distance. There was a linear correlation between the occiput to wall distance and the distance of acromion to opposite anterior iliac spine (correlation coefficient=-0.55057). The distance between the inferior angles of scapulas did not change significantly. In contrast, there was a significant increase in the chest expansion (p<0.005). According to our findings we conclude that Pilates' exercises can be effective in improvement of the body posture and chest expansion. It is supposed that this method is suitable for physiotherapy to cure and treat some diseases like chronic lower back pain, chronic obstructive disease, ankylosing spondylitis and so many diseases which are related to the spine mobility, stability, and flexibility. Pilates’ exercises are easy to master and can be used within a personal activity routine. It can be an adequate training for young healthy people also to improve the posture and chest mobility.

▼ Gender inequality is present in most societies. Despite much progress, women are still unevenly positioned in regards to things such as division of household duties, pay at work, and safety. These and other inequalities act together to shape women's travel decisions. In this dissertation, I aim to contribute to the literature on gender and transportation by exploring how unequal division of household duties, economic inequity, as well as macro-economic crisis are affecting the mobility of women in the U.S. In particular, the dissertation explores three main questions. The first question investigates how gender affects workday and non-workday activity spaces. By investigating how intra-personal geographies change, it seeks to unravel the gender based pressures that lead to variations in daily geographies between men and women. The second question examines how economic constraints faced by women, especially by women with children, impacted their transportation spending before and during the recession. The analysis looks at shifts in average household expenditures as well as the overall expenditure distribution by using quantile regression method. A comparison of expenditures before and during the recession highlights how bare-bones the expenditures on transportation were for those at the lower tail of the expenditure distribution even in "good" times. The third question expands on the expenditure analysis and seeks to understand how women headed households apportion expenditures on food, housing, and transport. It also looks into how these apportionments were impacted by the recession. The findings from these analyses underscore the gendered nature of mobility and its spatial and economic dimensions. The work also identifies specific areas for policy intervention.

The study focuses on education and the occupational newlinemobility of the Hmar tribe of Manipur. It also seeks to newlinehighlight the extent of educational inequality among the newlinedifferent sections of the Hmar society. newlineThe study is based on field work conducted in three newlineHmar villages in the South district of Manipur, viz. newlineSielmat, Saidan and Pherzawl. Data were obtained through an newlineinterview of the heads of households. The total sample newlineincludes 320 households which accounted for 75.6 per cent of newlinethe total Hmar households in the three villages. The newlinespecific objectives of the study are as follows: newline1. To examine the growth and expansion of education newlineamong the Hmars. newline2. To examine inequality of educationa: opportunity newlineamong the different sections of the Hmar society on newlinethe basis of: newlineDifferential access to educational opportunities newlinei.e. differential enrolment of children in the age newlinegroup of 6-21 years. newlineDifferential levels of educational attainment by newlinethe adult members (i.e. above 21 years) newline3. To see as to what extent education influences newlineoccupational mopility among the Hmars. newlinevii. newline4. To examine the extent of inequality between men and newlinewomen. newlineThe Hmaohave a significantly high literacy rate of newline52.2 per cent (1981). However, a closer examination of the newlineeducational attainment of the Hmars revealed that more than newlinehalf of t~e literate population does not have any newlineeducational qualification. Further, only a small proportion newlinehad attained matric or higher qualification. This indicates newlinethat despite their high crude literacy rate, only a small newlinesection of the Hmars are able to obtain formal school newlineeducation; and higher education is yet to be developed among newlinethem. newlineThe study revea~s the presence of a certain level of newlineeducational inequality among the various sections of the newlineHmar society. Considerable difference is noticed in the newlineeducational development of the samples villages. In newlinegeneral, educational development if found to be highest in newlineSielmat where exposure to urban facilities is also the newlinemaximum.

▼ This thesis contributes to a growing body of research on the impact of China’s rustication programme—a social mobilisation, transferring urban school graduates to rural communities during the Cultural Revolution—on the lives of the Cultural Revolution cohort (CR cohort), and more broadly, to research on the impact of socialist campaigns on social mobility. The analyses of this thesis are based on two national surveys as well as interviews that I conducted with former rusticates and non-rusticates. Distinct from earlier studies which stated that the rustication programme had indiscriminate and adverse effects on all social groups, my results show the process itself was socially stratified: (1) children from the bad class origin and highly-educated families were intensively targeted, and (2) the privileged military families were spared from the mobilisation, and their children were sent to join the People's Liberation Army (PLA). In view of the timing of major life transitions, rusticates lag behind their non-rusticated counterparts and individuals from adjacent cohorts, despite the fact that the delayed attainment of further education was experienced by all members of the CR cohort. After controlling for experience of rustication, children of party officials have a higher chance of obtaining a college degree than those from other social backgrounds. The analysis of the complete work-life histories of the CR cohort as a whole reveals four employment trajectories: Rusticates are more likely to be in the trajectory group characterised by unemployment in the late stage of their career than non-rusticates. Children of party members have a higher likelihood to be in the trajectory dominated by managerial work with short initial spells in the PLA. Rusticates are found to be less satisfied with their lives, their current situation is more deprived and they are more likely to be active in conflict solving, as opposed to non-rusticates and members of adjacent cohorts. Interviews suggest that rusticates viewed the experience of rustication as being an important part of their past and display a thirst for public recognition. Yet, the extent of the transformation that this experience has made in their lives is stratified by their work-life experiences. Non-rusticates reckoned their lives were also affected by the rustication through their close links with rusticates.

▼ This dissertation characterizes the geometry of mobile wireless networks and their performance. In mobile networks, distance variations caused by node mobility generate fluctuations of the channel gains. Such fluctuations can be treated as another type of fading besides multi-path effects. Interference statistics in mobile random networks are characterized by incorporating the distance variations of mobile nodes to the channel gain fluctuations. The mean interference is calculated at the center and at the border of a finite mobile network. The network performance is evaluated in terms of the outage probability. Compared to a static network, the interference in a single snapshot does not change under uniform mobility models. However, random waypoint mobility increases (decreases) the interference at the center (at the border). Due to the correlation of node locations (in mobile or static networks), the interference and outage are temporally and spatially correlated. We quantify the temporal correlation of the interference and outage in mobile Poisson networks in terms of the correlation coefficient of the interference and conditional outage probability, respectively. The results show that it is essential that routing, MAC scheduling, and retransmission schemes need to be smart (i.e., correlation-aware) to avoid bursts of transmission failures. For communication between two neighboring nodes in wireless networks, the local delay, which is defined as the time it takes a node to successfully transmit a packet, is an important quantity. Previous research focuses on the local delay in static or infinitely mobile Poisson networks with ALOHA. In this dissertation, we extend the local delay results to Poisson networks with finite mobility. Bounds of the local delay in mobile Poisson networks are derived for different mobility and transmission models. Although mobility helps reduce the local delay, its impact depends on the particular mobility model. The phase transition that marks the jump of the local delay from finite to infinite is also characterized.

▼ The truck industry plays a major role in the transportation of goods within the European Union. Although the production of green house gasses has decreased in the past years, there is still room for improvement. The typical European truck nowadays is box-shaped due to current legislation. Upcoming changes of the European Commission in legislation on the maximum weights and dimensions of trucks offer the possibility to design more aerodynamic trucks, which will reduce fuel consumption and as a consequence, reduces the amount of greenhouse gasses. In addition to aerodynamic improvements, the upcoming changes should lead to an increase in safety and driver comfort as well. Furthermore, the extra length may not lead to an increased cargo capacity. Since there are no guidelines on the amount of length extension yet, this graduation project focuses on the investigation of the upcoming changes in legislation and the influence it will have on the typical European truck architecture and the styling that is related to it. The main goal is to find the sweet spot in truck layout. This project will function as a showcase of the future possibilities in truck layout. In order to create a solid foundation for the design of the future truck, four pillars of innovation are determined: aerodynamics, safety, layout and interior architecture. For aerodynamic purposes, it is key to keep the bodywork as clean as possible with the least amount of interruptions. This is specifically important for the transition between the frontal and side surface of the truck. The main focus on the safety topic will be on active safety for reducing the accident rates with trucks involved. Another major aspect to increase safety is the enlargement of the direct field vision of the truck driver. This is especially important in rural areas to prevent vulnerable road users to be in a collision with a truck. The frontal shape of the truck is very important for the ability to deflect other road users. The possible amount of length extension is investigated by creating a maximum design envelope for the future truck, in compliance with current legislation. An elongated front end of the truck has major implications for the truck its architecture. Due to the approach angle, axle loads and proper functioning in existing infrastructure, the front wheels are displaced in compliance with the front extension. A length extension is also beneficial for the level of comfort. Different interior setups are tested and rated. The chosen interior layout functions as a major input for the exterior on aspects like placement of the doors, A-, B- and C-pillars and the daylight opening. DAF’s unique selling point has been interior space and comfort. However, competitors have caught up in recent times. The current DAF trucks are proud and refined but lack an air of quality radiated by the exterior styling, while the surreptitious technology does live up to these standards. In the competitive field, DAF should aim at a more progressive and extravert spot, in order to draw the… Advisors/Committee Members: Van Grondelle, E.D., Quartel, C.D.A., Baten, G..

▼ Like many other cities in Europe, Wrocław in Poland aims to improve the livability of children by implementing sustainable urban mobility measures, but fails to be successful. Due to an ongoing outflow of families from the city to the periphery and region, a vicious circle of an ongoing increase in car use has occured which increasingly threatens the livability of children. Because the travelling distances have increased, many children are not able to overcome their distance constraints anymore, which forces them to travel by car. That is why in this project the need for children to travel by car to school has been measured and reduced, to create a situation in which future measures to improve the livability of children can be effective. The analysis shows that from the 75767 children in the age between 3 and 15 years old that were living in Wrocław at the end of 2005, 12573 ( 16,6%) were reliant on the car to travel to school. This means that in case every car trip would carry 1,5 child, 16.000 daily car trips need to be made, which explains the high demand on space for cars in the city. By the implementation of strategic interventions, the amount of daily car trips that need to be made between the homes of children and schools can be reduced with 7.000. This means that many future sustainable urban mobility measures can be implemented effectively. However, to relocate schools and to provide new schools, the precondition needs to be met that housing will be developed in areas where the exploitation of schools is not (yet) profitable. Unfortunately, Wrocław’s planned housing development areas are not similar to the areas where development is preffered. The consequence is that many interventions in the spreading of schools, which are mainly responsible for the reduction in daily car trips, in practice cannot be realized. This means that not only the current reliance on the car is likely to remain in tact, but even more important that the future reliance on car use is likely to increase. And thus, future sustainable urban mobility measures are likely to become ineffective as well, which makes it likely for the livability of children in Wrocław to remain threatened. To become a child friendly city, Wrocław needs to implement an integrated strategy of sustainable urban mobility measures and land use development, which is based on the spatial requirements of children. Because the development of housing in the city has been market driven, the specific demand that children put on their living environment has not been protected. As a result, many housing areas have been developed where children are not able to overcome their distance constraints and therefore need to travel by car to school. To prevent a further increase in the need for children to travel by car, Wrocław needs to take a more active role in the development of housing in the city, whereby clear choices need to be made for the location and design of new housing projects. As a starter, Wrocław would do good to change its planned housing development areas to… Advisors/Committee Members: Rocco de Campos Pereira, R., Berghauser Pont, M..

▼ Mobility makes people independent and is a necessity of life. This is also for people with a spinal chord lesion. They are fully depending on their wheelchair and this is not an efficient transport product for distances further then 2 km. A handbike is the solution and give the users more freedom to become mobile in the city and at the same time maintain a proper health. For my graduation project I have developed an attachable handbike which can be used on fixed frame and foldable wheelchairs. The advantage is that the user can maintain his personal wheelchair and convert this to a tricycle with arm propulsion. The project is done at Van Raam BV in Varsseveld in cooperation with Welzorg sport. Van Raam makes people mobile with specialized and unique bicycles like tandems, wheelchair bikes, three wheel bikes and comfort bikes. Welzorg supply products for people with a function or mobility disability, such as walkers, wheelchairs, handbikes and mobility scooters. Welzorg has the knowledge about handbikes and contact with end users and Van Raam has the knowledge to manufacture the handbike. My graduation assignment is to design an attachable handbike which is technically, functional and aesthetically outstanding. It will need a universal mounting system that suit several types of wheelchairs and the size of the handbike need to be adjustable to several user dimensions. After analyzing the context of the handbike the design guidelines are listed and the starting points for the design phase are generated. In the conceptualization phase principle solutions are generated for the mounting system that can be divided in a docking station on the wheelchair and a coupling mechanism on the handbike. Several quick mock ups are made to test the working principle of some ideas. Several sketches are made for the design of the frame which will have a slim, solid and sportive look. From these ideas three concepts for the coupling mechanism and the appearance where chosen to elaborate further on. One of the concepts is chosen and detailed in the realization phase. The mounting mechanism had to fit on several wheelchairs tubes, be light and have enough strength. The result is a docking station that is easy to add on and of on the wheelchair from the side while the user maintain his position in the wheelchair. The coupling mechanism is working like an excavator which hooks and lock the docking station and lift the front wheels of the wheelchair from the ground. With a lever the coupling block is compressed with the docking station. The system is easy to release with a squeeze lever at the top of the handbike and the lever at the coupling mechanism. From a 3D CAD model a 1:1 scale prototype of the handbike is build so it can be tested for functionality, appearance and usability. The users where enthusiastic about the design and would fit their lifestyle. The driving performance was comfortable but they where used to a smaller turning radius. The coupling mechanism worked but the users needed some practice to get used to the… Advisors/Committee Members: Ruiter, I.A., Boezel, J.W., Prins, J.F..

▼ This thesis studies the impact of geographic mobility on the decision of a household to whether to buy or to rent a house, and sheds light on the efficiency of mortgage default prevention policies. The first chapter provides an introduction and an overview of the ongoing policy debates on homeownership and mortgage terms. In the second and third chapters, I study the housing tenure decision in the context of a life cycle model with uninsurable individual income risk, plausibly calibrated to match key features of the U.S. housing market. I find that the relatively low ownership rate of young households is mainly explained by their high geographic mobility. Downpayment constraints have minor quantitative implications on ownership rates, except for old households. I also find that idiosyncratic earnings uncertainty has a significant impact on ownership rates. Based on these results, I argue that the long term increase in ownership rates observed over the period 1993-2009 was not necessarily due to mortgage market innovations and the relaxation of downpayment requirements, as is often argued. Instead, it was simply an implication of U.S. demographic evolution, most notably the decline in interstate migration and, less importantly, population aging. Finally, in Chapter 4, I study the impact of the relaxation of downpayment requirement on homeownership and default risk. Given its quantitative success in matching the U.S. homeownership curve, my model represents a reasonable benchmark to asses the efficiency of mortgage default prevention policies. I find that both income and mobility are the main trigger factors for default decisions. In fact, households with a higher mobility (ie. young households) rate are more likely to default. According to the welfare analysis, I suggest that policymakers include a minimum downpayment requirement of 9.5% in the new definition of the Qualified Residential Mortgage. This number should, however, be viewed with some caution, since I focus on a steady state economy, in which house prices are constant. In fact, the house price represents an important factor influencing the default rate. Potentially, the optimal minimum downpayment requirement should be set at higher value than 9.5%.

▼ Background: Multiple Scelrosis (MS) is a progressive demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. It is recognised that people with MS (PwMS) who require a mobility aid, experience higher levels of disability, compared to those without mobility impairment. Decreased strength of the lower limbs is a primary problem, which is clinically associated with functional limitations in MS. Progressive resistance training (PRT) and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), to a lesser degree, are effective rehabilitation strategies to improve strength and function in PwMS. Presently, there is limited literature to support superimposing NMES on PRT in PwMS, particularly in the home-setting. The clinical profile literature of PwMS who use a walking aid, is also limited. Aims: The primary aim of this thesis was to investigate the effects of adding an NMES device (Kneehab) to a home-based PRT in PwMS who use a walking aid. Secondary aims included, evaluating the clinical profile of this population and determining participant satisfaction with the Kneehab device. Methods: The study used a randomised design to compare 12 weeks of homebased PRT to the same with superimposed NMES. The Kneehab device is designed for the quadriceps. The study assessor was blinded to group allocation. Participants were evaluated at week 0, 6 and 12 for a number of important clinical problems that were identified in the literature review. These included quadriceps strength (primary outcome), quadriceps thickness and endurance, spasticity, balance, mobility, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and fatigue. Participants in the Kneehab group completed a device satisfaction questionnaire. Results: Thirty-seven PwMS participated in the study. The baseline data for this group showed that muscle weakness, balance and mobility limitations were severe problems. Moderate correlations between quadriceps endurance and balance (r=0.692), and quadriceps endurance and mobility (r=-0.583) were shown. Twenty-five participants completed the study (PRT n=10; Kneehab n=15). Two-drop-outs in the Kneehab group were due to muscle spasm induced by the device. In both groups, quadriceps strength increased non-significantly while balance and gluteal strength improved significantly (p<0.05). The Kneehab group improved significantly on plantar-flexion strength, rectus femoris thickness, quadriceps endurance, perceived spasticity, HRQoL ad fatigue (all p<0.05). The plantar-flexion strength, spasticity, HRQoL and fatigue improvements in the Kneehab group were significantly greater than the PRT group (all p<0.05). The Kneehab group also completed significantly more sessions, and total and quadriceps work (all p<0.05). Participants were satisfied with the usability and value of having the Kneehab device. Conclusion: This preliminary research indicates that adding an NMES device to a PRT programme for PwMS who use a walking aid results in better outcomes than PRT alone. This may be due to a placebo type effect, whereby participants were motivated to complete a more exercise… Advisors/Committee Members: Coote, Susan, Donnelly, Alan Edward, IRCSET.

▼ BaSnO3 (BSO) is one of the most promising semiconducting oxides currently being explored for use in future electronic applications. BSO possesses a unique combination of high room temperature mobility (even at very high carrier concentrations, >1019 cm-3), wide band gap, and high temperature stability, making it a potentially useful material for myriad applications. Significant challenges remain however in optimizing the properties and processing of epitaxial BSO, a critical step towards industrial applications. In this study we investigate the viability of using high pressure oxygen sputtering to produce high mobility La-doped BSO thin films. In the first part of our investigation we synthesized, using solid state reaction, phase-pure stoichiometric polycrystalline 2% La-doped BaSnO3 for use as a target material in our sputtering system. We verified the experimental bulk lattice constant, 4.117 Å, to be in good agreement with literature values. Next, we set out to optimize the growth conditions for DC sputtering of La doped BaSnO3. We found that mobility for all our films increased monotonically with deposition temperature, suggesting the optimum temperature for deposition is >900°C and implicating a likely improvement in transport properties with post-growth thermal anneal. We then preformed systematic studies aimed at probing the effects of varying thickness and deposition rate to optimize the structural and electronic transport properties in unbuffered BSO films. In this report we demonstrate the ability to grow 2% La BSO thin films with an effective dopant activation of essentially 100%. Our films showed fully relaxed (bulk), out-of-plane lattice parameter values when deposited on LaAlO3, MgO, and (LaAlO3)0.3(Sr2TaAlO6)0.7 substrates, and slightly expanded out-of-plane lattice parameters for films deposited on SrTiO3, GdScO3, and PrScO3 substrates. The surface roughness’s of our films were measured via AFM, and determined to be on the nm scale or better. Specular XRD measurements confirmed highly crystalline films with narrow rocking curve FWHMs on the order of 0.05°. The optimum thickness found to maximize mobility was around 100 nm for films deposited at ~8 Å/min. These films exhibited room temperature mobilities in excess of 50 cm2V-1s 1 at carrier concentrations ~3 x 1020 cm-3 across 4 different substrate materials (LaAlO3, SrTiO3, GdScO3, and PrScO3). Contrary to expectations, our findings showed no dependence of mobility on substrate mismatch, indicating that threading dislocations are either not the dominant scattering source, or that threading dislocation density in the films was constant regardless of the substrate. The highest mobility film achieved in this study, 70 cm2V 1s 1, was measured for a film grown at a considerably slower rate (~2 Å/min) and lower thickness (~380 Å). Said film was deposited on a PrScO3 (110) substrate, the most closely lattice matched substrate commercially available for BSO (–2.2% pseudo-cubic). This film showed a high out-of-plane lattice parameter from…

▼ We study the effect of mobility on the sensing and communication performance of a sensor network with mobile nodes. Communicating the sensed data clearly necessitates that the sensor node is able to connect to adjacent (sensor or sink) nodes to be able to exchange its information. Same node to node links can also be used in the sensing phase if a cooperative sensing scheme is in place. Assuming that the phenomenon being sensed generates a sparse and spatially correlated signal across the sensors, the theory of distributed compressive sensing suggests that cooperative sensing can facilitate the sensing process. We study the effect of mobility on the probability that a sensor node can connect to its neighboring nodes either to communicate its sensed data or to initiate a cooperative sensing procedure. We show that, by increasing the probability of such connections, mobility enhances both communication and sensing performance of mobile sensor networks.We first study how mobility of the nodes affects the communication performance of a mobile network. Based on a Wiener process mobility model, and in a network with mobile sensor and sink nodes, we study a repetition based approach for sensor node to sink node communication, where sensor nodes attempt communicating their sensed data with sink nodes repeatedly between two sensing instants. Using a stochastic framework, we prove that the average number of successful communications is an increasing function of the sensor node's mobility.Then, we study the sensing performance of the above network based on a cooperative sensing scheme. In this scheme, sensors share their samples and perform the sensing cooperatively, reducing the required number of samples per sensor node. The reduction in the number of samples each sensor needs to obtain, namely the sensing gain, depends on the level of correlation between such samples. Adopting a joint sparsity model for the correlation between the samples of the sparse signal, we show that the mobility of the sensor nodes can increase the chances of higher correlation between the samples, leading to a reduction in the number of requires samples.

Student mobility not only impacts students who change schools, but also classrooms that have to adjust to a changing student enrollment. The researcher defined student mobility as the number of times each student moved to a different school, not counting the natural transitions between elementary, middle, and high school. Students with no moves were considered non-mobile, 1 to 2 moves moderately mobile, 3 or more moves were identified as highly mobile. Student achievement was defined as the student’s performance on the ITBS in reading and math. Data were obtained on eighth grade students in the areas of reading and mathematics. The eighth grade students were given the Iowa Test of Basic Skills, a norm referenced measure of student achievement. A three way ANOVA was conducted on reading and mathematical scores by the factors of gender, race, and mobility. There were three research questions. (1) Are there statistically significant differences in scores on the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) among levels of race and levels of mobility. (2) Are there statistically significant differences among levels of mobility and gender? (3) Are there statistically significant differences among levels of race and gender? The data revealed that there were no statistically significant interactions among any levels of the three independent variables (race, gender, and mobility). However, there were statistically significant main effects for race, gender, and mobility. White students achieved higher scores than minorities in both reading and mathematics. Non-mobile students obtained higher scores in reading and mathematics as opposed to moderately mobile and highly mobile students. There were significant differences in the area of reading, as females obtained higher scores than males. Advisors/Committee Members: C. Thomas Holmes.

▼ This thesis aims at systematically investigating intergenerational class mobility in contemporary China between 1996 and 2006, a period of time that largely overlaps the third decade of the country’s reform era. The study seeks answers to the following questions: 1) to what extent Chinese are found in class positions that differ from their class origins; 2) whether the amount of intergenerational mobility increased during the decade in question; 3) whether China has become a more equal society in terms of social mobility; 4) what are the overall patterns of social fluidity in China; and, 5) how mobility outcomes are affected by work-life mobility and various demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, such as gender and the household registration (hukou) background.This research uses nationally representative survey data from three surveys – the Life Histories and Social Change Survey (1996) and the Chinese General Social Surveys (CGSS 2005 and CGSS 2006). I adopt the class structural approach and the EGP (Erikson-Goldthorpe-Protocarero) class schema. Various statistical methods are employed to explore the above issues: descriptive analysis for changes of China’s class structure, absolute rates of mobility and work-life mobility from the first job class to class of destination; log-linear and log-multiplicative analysis for trends and between-group differences in relative mobility; the Hauser-type density levels model and the core model of social fluidity for patterns of social fluidity; and the Stereotype Ordinal Regression Model for multivariate analysis of mobility outcomes. During the decade, China has become a more ‘mobile’ society in an upgraded structural context. While the relative size of the agricultural sector contracted substantially, there is a significant increase in the non-agricultural ‘room’ for occupational attainment, especially in the routine non-manual class and manual working classes. However, the analysis of relative mobility shows that the significant increase in total mobility and upward mobility has resulted mainly from structural changes. Between 1996 and 2006, the origin-destination association net of structural effects has been largely stable. Hence, the study provides little evidence in support of a more equal Chinese society. As regards gender differences, Chinese women are less socially mobile than men, and their mobility outcomes tend to be more affected than men by their social origin.In fitting the density levels model and the core model of social fluidity to the pooled data, I show that the highest likelihood of occurrence lies with the self-inheritance of peasants as well as small business owners. In contrast, mobility between the agricultural sector and non-manual classes displays the lowest likelihood of occurrence. While relative chances of mobility for both men and women are heavily affected the boundary between agricultural and non-agricultural sectors, women are further subject to the hierarchical effect that hinders long-range mobility. In the final part of the empirical…
