Investigates the hypothesis that, given a broad sampling of subjects from various occupations, typological analysis will yield a limited number of general interest patterns closely resembling the groups suggested by Holland. (Author)

Librarians should take their cue from discographers in the cataloging and classification of music on phonorecords. The basis of the catalog entry cannot always be the work performed as opposed to the record itself. Some modern music dictates an approach that recognizes the record as inseparable from what is on it. (Author/LS)

A critical examination of two key aspects of Piaget's account of how small children come to understand basic number concepts. (Author/CS)

An annotated bibliography on typographic research. (HB)

The article attempts to define more clearly the term "typology," using as its base the work of Skalica. It discusses the particular language characteristics which form the basis of classification of the terms "type" and "class" as they are used in different language typologies. (DH)

A brief discussion of children's perceptions of animate and inanimate objects. It is suggested that studies on child animism must consider the child's criteria used in the classification of animate objects, as well as those used for inanimate objects. (Author/ED)

Psychometric test performances of two groups of school children were analyzed: 80 fourth graders, 40 of whom had been identified by their school district as learning disabled (LD); and 51 children referred for "possible LD placement" and diagnosed LD or not LD by school district personnel applying a severe discrepancy criteria. Results…

Weaknesses in the structure, levels, and sequence of Bloom's taxonomy of cognitive domains emphasize the need for both a new model of how individual learners process information and a new taxonomy of the different levels of memory, thinking, and learning. Both the model and the taxonomy should be consistent with current research findings. The…

Noting that in the contemporary world, rhetorical experimentation has proliferated at almost geometric rates, this paper proposes that an understanding of rhetorical variables will help in acquiring an overview and understanding of that rhetorical experimentation. Defining rhetorical variables as all the elements that can take different values in…

Stating that teachers are often confused by the terms "homonym" and "homophone," this paper maintains that the difficulty can be eased by determining how words can be classified in terms of structure, meaning, or sound. It then presents a word nomenclature model that draws upon the differentiation between these groups of words…

The information contained within this guide about flora of the ferns and fern allies of the Catskill Mountains of New York State covers medical and food uses of the plants, as well as the more typical floristic data of keys, drawings, and plant descriptions. (CS)

OBJECTIVES OF THIS STUDY WERE TO DESIGN AND TEST A TAXONOMY OF ILLUSTRATIONS OF 4 TYPES--PHYSICAL (PICTURES), VERBAL MODIFIER (CAPTION), EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVE, AND SUBJECT MATTER. CHI-SQUARE ANALYSIS OF ASSOCIATION AMONG THE TYPES IN A SAMPLE OF 40 GRADE 8 TEXTS IN 4 SUBJECT AREAS WOULD SUGGEST HYPOTHESES FOR FURTHER SYSTEMATIC RESEARCH RELATING…

THIS REPORT DISCUSSES LEXICOGRAPHICAL CLASSIFICATION OF FOLK TERMS. THE CONCERNS OF SUCH CLASSIFICATION ARE DESCRIBED AS (1) IDENTIFYING RELEVANT SYNTACTIC STRUCTURES, (2) IDENTIFYING FUNDAMENTAL SEMANTIC UNITS IN SPECIFIC CONTEXTS, (3) DELINEATING SIGNIFICANT SETS OF SEMANTIC UNITS IN PARTICULAR DOMAINS, AND (4) TRANSLATING AND MARKING THE…

THE BROAD PURPOSE OF THIS PROJECT WAS TO TEST EMPIRICALLY THE STRUCTURE OF THE HANDBOOK "TAXONOMY OF EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES 1--COGNITIVE DOMAIN." IT WAS NECESSARY TO CONSTRUCT FOUR FORMS OF A TAXONOMY-TYPE TEST SINCE NONE WAS AVAILABLE. THE PHENOMENA WHICH ARE CLASSIFIED BY THE "TAXONOMY" ARE THE RESPONSES (BEHAVIORS) WHICH…
