Considerable evidence exists to suggest the notion that selected
personality traits may be related to specific aspects of academic
achievement. This study was directed toward the investigation of this
relationship in the case of non-science majors enrolled in a college
course in physical science.
Personality was assessed with the California...
The Weather Radar Set An/CPS-9 at McCulloch Peak,
Oregon, provided data of changes in radar precipitation
echo patterns in the vicinity of Marys Peak. Echo heights
studied from data collected on 14 March 1963 averaged nearly
the same upwind, directly over Marys Peak, and downwind.
For the data of 28...
This research was conducted to compare the performance of
community college students to four -year institutional students both
of which were enrolled in one of three different programs of general
college chemistry for nonscience majors during the 1967 -68 academic
year. The three programs were defined as follows:
Program A...
This investigation was designed to compare the growth in attitudes
toward science and the critical thinking abilities of high
school juniors in chemistry to juniors not enrolled in chemistry.
One hundred and fifty-three chemistry students and 149 non-chemistry
students were randomly selected to participate in the study.
Criterion tests used...
This study was designed with two major aims. The first was toexamine certain characteristics of both Departmental and Non- Departmentalteachers who were teaching matriculation chemistry in SouthAustralian secondary schools during 1967. The numbers of teacherswho participated were: Departmental 40, and Non - Departmental 23.The second was to ascertain certain learning...
This paper discusses the theoretical design parameters of
photographic data recording systems associated with atmospheric
research radar. Practical considerations modify these theoretical
results. The design of a recording system employed on the Range
Height Indicator (RHI) scope of the weather Radar Set AN/CPS-9
atop McCulloch Peak, Oregon, illustrates the optimization...
This study examines in detail a continuous drop-size distribution
recorder and selected data gathered with this recorder at
various locations on 6, 15, and 31 May 1966. The drop-size distribution
recorder consists of a self-contained, mobile unit able to
operate without electric power. This recorder utilizes "Ozalid 105
SZ" filter...
