The present study was undertaken to investigate the concerns of secondary school teacher-librarians, that the subject headings set down by the Australian Schools Catalogue Information Service (ASCIS) do not cover topics in senior sourses of study. NSW HSC Economics was chosen to test this perception. Terms were extracted from three textual sources (syllabus, textbook and examination papers) and checked against the subject headings in the ASCIS Subject Headings List. A comparison was made between terms which matched exactly, those which were only partially matched and those which had no match. The linguistic complexity of the term (single-word or multi-word) and the number of textual sources using the term were also taken into account. The results showed a varying degree of match between textual terms and subject headings. Single-word terms found in more than one textual source were much more likely to be found in the subject headings than those from only one textual source. Multi-word terms were found less frequently than single-word terms, but were also more likely to be found when they came from more than one textual source. There was a large number of partial matches in this group, and these were found to be more general in concept than the textual terms. Most of the terms were found, but the general nature of the partial matches and the lack of adequate cross references may cause problems in subject analysis and retrieval.

In January, 1974, the Interim ACT Schools Authority assumed responsibility for pre, primary and secondary schools in the Australian Capital Territory. It took steps to provide a basis for the restructuring of secondary education. The traditional six-year comprehensive high school was to be replaced in 1976 by a four-year high school and a two-year secondary college. The Interim Authority decided that each school should be responsible for its own curriculum which should not be constrained by an external examination. A system of course development and teacher assessment, to replace the New South Wales Higher School Certificate syllabuses and examination, was developed during 1974. The Interim Authority sought the advice of the Australian Council for Educational Research, and a report prepared by it was used to stimulate public debate. After considering a wide cross section of points of view the Interim Authority decided that accredited courses would replace syllabuses, teacher assessments, the examination and profile reports the Certificate. The ACT Schools Accrediting Agency, a committee of the Interim Authority, was formed in 1975 to administer accrediting assessment and reporting. The Accrediting Agency negotiated the basis for tertiary entrance for ACT students. It determined that a single aggregate score, the Tertiary Entrance Score, should be calculated, using aggregated scaled teacher assessments. Scores from three major and one minor accredited-TES courses scaled by the Australian Scholastic Aptitude Test total score would be aggregated. A system-wide order of merit would be created. The maximum aggregate score would be 360. The basis for the aggregate was very different from that which it was replacing. In New South Wales, five subject scores with a possible maximum of 900 was used. An examination of a number of comparison and correlation studies presented in Part B indicates that ASAT scaling of teacher estimates improves the correlation of teacher estimates with the Higher School Certificate examination aggregate scores. Some correlations between ASAT-scaled criteria and HSC aggregates are in the order of 0.9. As is expected some movement away from what was acceptable in 1975 occurred. When examined in the light of the philosophy of school responsibility for curriculum and assessment the procedures adopted certainly facilitate this, while at the same time produce students' results which can be used as confidently as external examination results have been.

The object of the study was a subjective feeling of loneliness and personal anxiety. The subject of the research was the relationship between the subjective feeling of loneliness and personal anxiety in students. This work consists of an introduction, two theoretical chapters, an empirical chapter, a conclusion, a bibliography and annexes, including forms and descriptions of the scales used. The introduction reveals the relevance of the research problem, the study of the problem, sets the goal and objectives of the research, defines the object and subject of the research, formulates the research hypothesis, stating that there is a relationship between indicators of personal anxiety and subjective feeling of loneliness. The first chapter is devoted to the consideration of the phenomenon of loneliness, the existing approaches to its study. The typology of this phenomenon is considered. The existing personal correlates of loneliness were also analyzed, among which there is personal anxiety, which is of particular attention for this work. The problems of loneliness in the student environment were considered. The second chapter examined the phenomenon of anxiety, approaches to its study and views on the causes of its occurrence. Particular attention was paid to the differentiation of situational anxiety and personal anxiety as the studied correlate of loneliness. The third chapter is the empirical part of the study. It contains a description of the organization and methods of the study, a description of the methods used: UСLA Loneliness scale V. Russell, L. Peplo, M. Ferguson; Differential questionnaire of feelings of loneliness E.N. Osin and D.A. Leontiev (MILE) and the Spielberger-Khanin State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Also in this chapter, the results of an empirical study were presented, 112 students aged 16 to 24 years (58 women and 54 men) participated. The results of correlation and comparative analyzes are also presented, which confirmed the hypothesis of the study for loneliness in general, as well as for its individual indicators. In the conclusion, the results of the theoretical and empirical parts of the work are summarized, as well as conclusions on the confirmed hypothesis, the practical significance of the study and the prospects for further research of this problem are described.
