Changes in marginal ridge alignment from early childhood to late adulthood in an untreated Caucasian population using the Iowa growth study sample

Dearing, Mason Andrew 01 May 2017 (has links)
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the changes in marginal ridge alignment occurring through normal growth and development from early childhood to late adulthood and to examine if any statistical variation exists between males and females. Methods: Dental casts of 38 subjects (15 females and 23 males) from the Iowa Growth Study were selected. The marginal ridge discrepancy was measured as the absolute value difference between adjacent marginal ridges of 20 interproximal contacts with both the ABO tool (data not shown) and a vertically mounted digital caliper. Upper and lower casts were tripoded to a level plane defined by the most posterior tooth and central point of the most erupted central incisor. A 15 subject calibration was used to measure inter-examiner reliability using the Cronbach’s Alpha and Kappa tests. The independent samples t test was used to examine the correlation of marginal ridge discrepancies between males and females. Results: Cronbach alpha (p ≤ .001) and Kappa test (p ≤ .01) show excellent inter-rater reliability. The independent sample t test showed no statistical significance, with minimal exception, in marginal ridge discrepancies between males and females matched for age (p > .05). Group 1 showed significantly higher number of marginal ridge discrepancies within ABO range of 0 – 0.5 mm of males and females compared to Group 2. Conclusion: Based on this study, no statistically significant differences were found in marginal ridge discrepancies between males and females. Also, the magnitude of marginal ridge discrepancies of erupting permanent teeth shows a decrease as an individual proceeds through growth and development and they remain relatively “level” during primary dentition.

La situation des arméniens ottomans d'Anatolie Orientale vue à travers les correspondances des missionnaires du American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions

Gagnon, Guillaume January 2008 (has links) (PDF)
Ce mémoire a pour objectif d'examiner l'impact des réformes ottomanes (1839-1876) sur la communauté arménienne d'Anatolie orientale. Plus spécifiquement, nous voulions voir si ces réformes, dans cette région, eurent un impact sur la condition de cette communauté, sur les relations qu'elle entretenait avec l'autorité ottomane, sur celles existant en son sein et, finalement, sur la relation existant entre elle et la communauté turque ottomane qui l'entourait. Trois hypothèses principales sous-tendaient ce travail. Nous pensions premièrement que les réformes ottomanes auraient une incidence beaucoup plus faible en Anatolie orientale que dans la capitale de l'Empire ottoman, Constantinople. Nous pensions deuxièmement que ces réformes n'auraient pas d'impact significatif sur la condition générale des Arméniens de cette région, ainsi que sur l'ordre traditionnel sur lequel cette communauté reposait. Troisièmement, nous pensions que les réformes auraient engendré des tensions entre Arméniens et Turcs ottomans d'Anatolie orientale en raison de l'emphase de celles-ci, surtout à partir de 1856, sur l'amélioration de la condition des Chrétiens de l'Empire. Pour vérifier ces hypothèses, nous avons utilisé comme source principale une partie des archives du American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM), laquelle contient des documents et correspondances de missionnaires de cette organisation ayant oeuvré auprès des Arméniens ottomans au courant du 19e siècle. Suite à l'étude de cette source, les conclusions principales ressortant de ce travail sont les suivantes. Les réformes eurent en effet une résonance bien moins grande auprès des Arméniens d'Anatolie orientale qu'auprès de ceux résidant dans la capitale de l'Empire. De plus, ces réformes n'ont pas eu d'impact significatif sur la condition des Arméniens de cette région. Leur véritable impact s'observe plutôt dans l'émergence de la communauté arménienne protestante qui fera face à une vive opposition de l'élite arménienne grégorienne. Finalement, les sources utilisées dans le cadre de ce texte ne nous ont pas permis de vérifier la troisième hypothèse, les missionnaires du ABCFM ne se prononçant pas sur les relations entre les majorités arménienne et turque ottomane d'Anatolie orientale. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Réformes ottomanes, Tanzimâts, Arméniens, Empire ottoman, ABCFM, Missionnaires.

"(T)hey ought to mind what a woman says" : early Cherokee women's rhetorical traditions and rhetorical education

Moulder, Mary Amanda 02 December 2010 (has links)
"'(T)hey ought to mind what a woman says" : early Cherokee women's rhetorical traditions and rhetorical education," illustrates how Cherokee women reinvented a sovereign Cherokee presence in the face of colonial hostility toward their political authority. Late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Cherokee women used oratory, and later writing, to insist that they possessed a mandate to participate in and help shape public debate. In chapter one, I discuss the defining features of an eighteenth-century Cherokee women's rhetorical tradition. Chapter two uses Deborah Brandt's theories of literacy accumulation to examine Cherokee mission schools and to demonstrate how Cherokee women refashioned writing skills they learned to affirm belonging in Cherokee communities. Chapter three employs Kenneth Burke's and Gerald Vizenor's theories of identification and consubstantiation to explore how Cherokee women deployed the language of American civility in print, thereby countering the image of the Vanishing Indian. The conclusion examines the implications of this study for current research in rhetoric and composition studies: Cherokee women's English-language literacy accumulation is analogous to contemporary literacy pedagogy debates. / text
