It is shown that in the special case of just two criterion groups the predictor variables may be equivalently ordered (with respect to contribution to prediction or discrimination) by the univariate F-ratios and by estimates of the predictor versus the linear discriminant function correlations.

Expands on the concept that environmental deficiencies are symptoms of human behavior that lead to environmental degradation. Explores the question of why people behave in a manner that is destructive of the environment with a focus on values and value conflict. (LK)

This study investigated the effects of sex of perceiver, race of expressor, and mode of presentation of stimuli (Audio/visual, visual/only, audio/only, and still pictures) on perception of emotion. Emotions are most accurately perceived in audio/visual; females were superior in perception of emotions. (JB)

The purpose of this study was the development and testing of an instrument for measuring interaction behavior in small group communication. It was designed to produce valid and reliable measures for each dimension of such behavior. (Author/JB)

Because overuse is causing ecological deterioration and user dissatisfaction, a travel behavior model is needed that predicts intensity of use as a function of user characteristics, entry rates by access points, physical characteristics of the area, alternative management policies, and intervening events. The Markov renewal theory is discussed as…

Much research in the field of moral behaviour is vitiated by the prevalence among researchers of a behaviouristic conception of motivation which ignores the importance of reasons in guiding behaviour. Its is argued that this neglect is dangerous and that researchers must take more account of them if their work is to have real relevance for moral…

This response to AA 514 433 argues that the antithesis between reason and cause is not as sharp among experimental psychologists as John Wilson supposes. (Editor)

Gives six questions that environmental analysts -- students and faculty members -- seek answers to in ongoing studies of environments in nursing homes, open plan junior high schools, college classrooms, apartment houses, and nursery school rooms. The data or evidence accrued will hopefully have great impact as evidenced in more humane…

A theoretical framework is here proposed in an attempt to explain the apparent discrepancy between the actual behavior of participants and what they say they experienced and learned in personal growth programs. (Author)

The reactions of volunteer and nonvolunteer subjects to experimental treatments are compared in two exploratory studies, and the resulting data are analyzed. (DB)

Proposes that the member of a pair who is underrewarded or overrewarded by this partner is motivated to reciprocate and to restore equity, but one who is rewarded by chance is motivated only to restore equity. (MB)

Orthographic distinctiveness was defined as those structural characteristics of a word which make it physically unusual, interesting or distinctive. Difficulty of pronunciation was found to be one characteristic of such orthographically distinctive words. (Author/FWB)
