Parent-child relationships and skill in readingChansky, Norman Morton January 1952 (has links)
Thesis (Ed.M.)--Boston University / The purpose of this study is to find the relationship between the
parental attitudes of acceptance and rejection and skill in reading in
a group of fifty-eight male students from a private preparatory school.
Parental attitudes tend to fall into two main classifications: acceptance
and rejection. The attitude of parental acceptance is closely related
to the sentiment of love. The attitude of parental rejection is closely
related to the sentiment of hate. Many parents have ambivalent feelings
of love and hate for their children, but there is a tendency for either
acceptance or rejection to be predominant in the total parental relationship
with the child.

How are companies developing their leadersMunsamy, Sandra January 2007 (has links)
The challenging nature of business today requires exceptional leadership skills.
However these leadership skills are a scarce commodity and companies need to
develop leadership to ensure a pipeline of leadership talent that can cope with the
challenges facing business. This task however is quite daunting as there are many
methods but few certainties about what works and what does not. Thus many
organizations struggle to find the right strategy to bridge the leadership gap. This
research report examines the best practices that exist in developing a leadership
development strategy, recommends a model for leadership development and
investigates the leadership development strategy of a manufacturing organization in
South Africa. The findings indicate that the strategy implemented by the case
organization is effective and thus can be used as an example to other organizations
also trying to implement a leadership development strategy. Challenges include
fostering a learning organization climate and implementing metrics to measure the
success of the strategy.

EVALUATING THE EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT MAGNITUDES OF REINFORCEMENT ON THE PERSISTENCE OF SOCIAL SKILLS LEARNED THROUGH BST IN ADULTS WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIESOtte, Erik Michael 01 August 2015 (has links)
Study 1 examined the usefulness of a BST package to teach conversation skills and job interview skills to young adults with developmental disabilities. Performance was scored in terms of percent of steps correct, according to task analyses. The BST package included instructions, modeling, rehearsal, feedback, and reinforcement. The skills were paired with either a high magnitude of reinforcement or a low magnitude of reinforcement. Study 2 assessed the effects of these different magnitudes of reinforcement on the persistence of the social skills. Results of Study 2 are described in terms of percent of steps correct and also proportion to baseline.

USING BEHAVIORAL SKILLS TRAINING TO PROMOTE OPTIMAL BLACKJACK STRATEGIESSpeelman, Ryan Christopher 01 August 2016 (has links)
The proliferation of gambling has exposed millions of Americans to contrived games in which casinos or other vendors hold a statistical and financial edge over a player. For most, these games represent a recreational pastime where finances are expended in exchange for entertainment experience. In games of skill, choices made by the gambler influence game probabilities, where poor choices reduce the odds of winning, thereby inflating the cost of this entertainment. Due to the overwhelming popularity of these games, interventions designed to promote optimal choice and improve strategy are socially valid. The current set of experiments were designed to analyze choice behavior in the context of blackjack and the outcomes related to various choices and strategy. Experiment I examined recreational blackjack player’s choices and the associated odds produced by these choices. The results found that recreational players made significant deviations from optimal strategies and that these choices produced financial losses that were far greater than those commonly advertised by the gaming industry. Experiment II investigated the relationship between self-reported strategy and authentic casino outcomes. The results found that authentic casino outcomes varied widely; those using poor strategy may contact small wins or substantial losses over short periods of play. Experiment III examined the efficacy of a behavior skills training procedure designed to promote optimal choices in blackjack and notably, to teach a specific skill in blackjack (sometimes referred to as card counting). The results indicate these skills could be taught using behavioral procedures and generalized to a naturalistic setting. Following training, three participants won money in a casino setting, likely improving the entertainment value and reducing the financial costs of the game. Overall the results suggest recreational players make significant errors and would likely benefit from training procedures designed to educate and promote optimal choice.
