Evaluates affective and self-disclosure responses to the disclosure of stigmatizing information by an experimental partner. Greater liking and self-disclosure were expected where the partner discloses exclusively to the subject than where he either does not disclose or discloses to everyone. (Author/RK)

Based on Zimbardo's (1970) theory of deindividuation and Duval and Wicklund's (1972) theory of "objective self-awareness" it was predicted that self-awareness would lead to a decrease in transgressive behavior. (Editor)

A number of phenomena in speech perception have been called fusion, but little effort has been made to compare these phenomena in a systematic fashion. This paper examines six of them. (Editor/RK)

Describes an experiment that utilizes the techniques of temperature synthesis, crystallization from a molten salt, oxidation-reduction in a molten salt, powder X-ray diffraction and analysis by high temperature volatilization or a specific ion electrode. (MLH)

Describes an experiment that shows that fluorescence emission intensities are significantly modified by absorption processes and that these effects can be eliminated by positioning the sample cell such that the interrogation region corresponds to the corner of the cell. (MLH)

Demonstrates how to use the area of proton magnetic resonance peaks to distinguish protons in water molecules close to a metal cation from protons in the bulk of the water. (MLH)

Discusses a chemical engineering course which includes laboratory experiments on polymerization, polymer fabrication, and polymer properties. (MLH)

Discusses the dipositive oxidation state of silicon and describes laboratory experiments concerning the synthesis and reactions of silicon difluoride. (MLH)

Describes an experiment in which the student is presented with the problem of selecting a suitable indicator for the determination of the hydroxide in basic copper chromate. (MLH)

Discusses the historical background of the 1887 Michelson-Morley experiment to detect the earth's motion through the aether. (MLH)

More than half of all chemists work on some aspect of polymers. For high school teachers who want to introduce polymer science basics, properties, and uses, this book is uniquely helpful--much deeper than simple monographs or collections of experiments, but much more accessible than college texts. Divided into four sections, Polymer Chemistry…

This study examined the effects of nutritional supplements on the duration and level of spontaneous play of 55 mildly to moderately malnourished toddlers living within the tea plantations of West Java, Indonesia. Infants were randomly assigned by their day care centers to one of three supplement groups: (1) energy and micronutrient supplements;…

This book presents 65 simple, safe, and intriguing hands-on science activities. In doing these simple experiments, children can make a variety of discoveries that will surprise them. It includes many activities from discovering how people see color and what makes people's hair stand on end, to creating a tornado in a jar or a propeller-driven boat…

The purpose of this paper is to engender a healthy respect for Gestalt theory and techniques and the use of the techniques in the client's best interest and in the interest of positive professional and self-development in the practitioner. An overview of Gestalt techniques is provided, concentrating on the two category divisions of experiments and…

This textbook is designed to aid teachers who are using the "Fourteen Weeks Course." The problems contained in all the books are solved. The book contains answers in natural philosophy, chemistry, descriptive astronomy, experiments in chemistry, human physiology, physics, and astronomy.
