TL;DR: In this article, reaction times were measured in a classification task which imposed a concurrent load on short-term and long-term memory, and the results indicated no support for the view that S accomplishes the classification task by a search through a unitary shortterm or active memory to which the contents of longterm memory have been transferred, whereas they tended to favor the conjecture that the two sets of items (long and shortterm) are maintained in memory stores sufficiently distinct that one may be operated upon independently of the other.

TL;DR: This article studied the effect of grammaticalness, meaningfulness, word frequency, interword association, and syntactic frame (Sf) on the comprehension of deviant sentences, and found that the latencies for Ss to understand the sentences were primarily a function of M and, to a lesser extent, G.

TL;DR: Homogenized exuviae of the crayfish Orconectes sanborni were extracted in a series of solutions capable of dissolving protein molecules held together by forces weaker than covalent cross-links, and only half the total protein present was removed.
TL;DR: Some of the results indicate that similarity is not always the preferred state, and a person of one's own race who presents such deviant belief patterns poses a threat, and needs for social comparison and cognitive consistency may be frustrated more strongly.
Abstract: An experiment was conducted to assess the effects of varying race, similarity, and type of stimulus questionnaire on interpersonal attraction. Forty-two white male college students served as Ss in rwo different sessions. In Session I Ss completed three questionnaires, including a one-page background inventory, an attitude inventory, and a forcedchoice Behavioral Preferences scale. During Session 2, 1 wk. later, Ss smdied the response patterns of four (pseudo) strangers on one of the scales, and evaluated each stranger on an \"Interpersonal Prediction Form.\" The latter contained rating scales for perceived similarity, liking, intelligence, sophisticated, arrogant, cynical, happy, sincere, and a social distance scale composed of 11 different yes-no statements assessing willingness for various kinds of interactions. The pseudoquestionnaire responses were either very similar or very dissimilar to S's initial responses, and the strangers were either black or white in race. Half the Ss received bogus Behavioral Preferences scales for the four strangers and the other half of the Ss received bogus attitude inventories. Thus the design was a 2 X 2 factorial within-ss for race and belief, and type of questionnaire was a between-& variable. The data for each of the dependent measures were subjected to an analysis of variance. O n 17 of the 20 measures a significant main effect of belief similarity was obtained. Persons similar in either attimde or behavioral preferences were rated as more likable, intelligent, sophisticated, happy, sincere, and more preferred on the social distance items than dissimilar persons. A few of the measures showed a main effect of race (blacks were rated as more sincere than whites). The basic similarity-attraction result was obtained for both types of questionnaires, although somewhat more strongly for the attimde inventory. An interesting race x similarity interaction occurred on four of the individual social distance items as well as on total social distance score. Whites similar in belief were equally or more preferred than similar Negroes, but dissimilar Negroes were more preferred than dissimilar whites. Byrne and W o n g (1962) also reported such an effect. They interpreted the result in terms of allowances made for the weaknesses of a different outgroup. W e suggest that the interaction reflects rejection of a renegade ingroup member. A Negro is perhaps expected to have different beliefs from whites. But a person of one's own (white) race who presents such deviant belief patterns poses a threat. Needs for social comparison and cognitive consistency may then be frustrated more strongly. The person is likely to be perceived as a renegade and rejected. Deciding between the two interpretations will require further work. Whatever the final interpretation, it should be noted that some of the results indicate that similarity is not always the preferred state. Given dissimilarity on one dimension (beliefs and preferences), dissimilarity on a second dimension (race) is preferred over similarity.

TL;DR: In this paper, an anharmonic-lattice-vibration theory of solid-state diffusion, based on classical theory developed previously, is presented in second-quantization form and is evaluated for Cu.
Abstract: An anharmonic-lattice-vibration theory of solid-state diffusion, based on classical theory developed previously, is presented in second-quantization form and is evaluated for Cu. Equilibrium statistical mechanics was used, and the Goldstone diagrams were isolated for the interacting-phonon events which contribute to ${D}_{0}$. A displacement transformation suitable for the inhomogeneous strain inherent in the migration mechanism was used. The results of a comprehensive theoretical analysis of the migration portion of ${D}_{0}$ were estimated numerically for Cu, using a nearest-neighbor Debye approximation. The values of ${D}_{0}$ obtained, including an experimental value of the entropy of vacancy formation, were 0.106, 0.091, and 0.078 for temperatures of 293, 793, and 1293\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}K, respectively. The temperature dependence shown by ${D}_{0}$, in the classical limit, was due to the $T$ dependence of the atomic force constants, thermal expansion, and $T$-dependent anharmonic terms. At lower temperatures, quantum effects introduced terms with inverse powers of $T$ and mass. At 293\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}K, which is $0.865{\ensuremath{\Theta}}_{D}$ for Cu, there is a 7% decrease of ${D}_{0}$ due to quantum terms. The anharmonic terms introduced no direct effects on the mass dependence of ${D}_{0}$. If the first few anharmonic terms are included in an expansion of the activation energy, the first and most important term is linear in $T$ in the classical limit. Hence, it appears in the experimentally measured ${D}_{0}$, rather than in the activation energy. Therefore, harmonic-lattice-vibration theories or elastic theories of the activation energy should be realistic. A suggestion is made regarding the possibility of controlling the diffusion process by the artificial stimulation of phonons using laser radiation in a selected frequency range.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors suggest that female delinquency may be explained in large part by the failure of girls to identify with their parents, and the resulting failure of the parents to effectively control their daughter's behavior.
Abstract: The general thesis of this paper is that female delinquency may be explained in large part by the failure of girls to identify with their parents, and the resulting failure of the parents to effectively control their daughter's behavior. The lack of structured interaction between parent and child (i.e., interaction characterized by parental behavior which is nurturant, consistent, and persistent) is seen as the underlying cause of the failure to identify. Some of the work which tends to support this thesis will be briefly outlined below. Socialization, Identification, and Delinquency Several authors have conceived of delinquency as resulting from inadequate or faulty socialization. Reiss (1951), for example, has suggested that delinquency may be explained in part as a "relative absence of internalized norms and rules governing be havior in conformity with the norms of the social system to which legal penalties are attached." Nye (1956) notes that society has produced a number of agencies of social control to induce the child to obey rules and regulations rather than to break them, the most important of which is the family. The parents' role as socializing agent, he states (1958), is effected through the "direct control" they impose upon their children by means of restriction, reward and punishment, through "internalized control" insofar as they are responsible for the development of the child's superego or The authors wish to express their appreciation to the Department of Sociology, Purdue University, for providing travel funds and other expenses incidental to this research.
TL;DR: The structure of the retail food industry has undergone significant changes since the Korean War period as discussed by the authors, and there are only two significant groups, the corporate chains and the affiliated independents, which behave much as corporate chains in that the stores operate with common management or supervision.
Abstract: HE structure of the retail food industry has undergone significant changes since the Korean War period. At that time there were three major groups in the industry. Today there are only two significant groups, the corporate chains and the affiliated independents. The latter behave much as corporate chains in that the stores operate with common management or supervision. This fact alone accounts for much of the attention and concern of many in our economy about the competitive behavior of food distribution firms.
TL;DR: The second moment of the proton magnetic resonance spectrum and the spin-lattice relaxation time as a function of temperature in polycrystalline rubidium bisulfate have been experimentally determined as mentioned in this paper.
TL;DR: There was a tendency for attitudes and knowledge to be related, but the attitudes are the reverse of those hypothesized, i.e., the greater the knowledge the more unfavorable the attitudes toward the disabled.
Abstract: Of a random sample of 130 college counselors, 81 completed and returned the Yuker Attitudes Toward Disabled Persons Scale and a modified version of the Haring General Information Inventory, a scale which measures knowledge about disabled persons. While the relationship between knowledge and attitudes was not significant (p = .088), there was a tendency for attitudes and knowledge to be related. However, the attitudes are the reverse of those hypothesized, i.e., the greater the knowledge the more unfavorable the attitudes toward the disabled. Seeing disabled persons as different from normal persons may be a negative orientation. Present data raise some question about the validity of that assumption.
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of several other types of psychological investigations of stutterers and normal speakers was conducted, and the collective findings of these projects indicate that stutterer do differ significantly from nonstutterers along several, diverse psychological dimensions.
TL;DR: This paper examined generalization gradients along the angularity dimension following training to a vertical white line and found that differential training produced steeper gradients than nondifferential training; surround color and type of training interacted to influence gradient slope.
Abstract: Generalization gradients along the angularity dimension were examined following training to a vertical white line. During training and test the surround color remained green or black. Half of the Ss received nondifferential training; half received differential training to presence v s absence of the line. Differential training produced steeper gradients than nondifferential training; surround color and type of training interacted to influence gradient slope.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a rationale and clinical methodology for selecting and ordering vocabulary stimulus material to be used in aphasia therapy, and discuss its effect on the speed and efficiency of the vocabulary re-building process.

TL;DR: The utility of the mouse kidney as a physiological tool for the study of the anabolic action of androgenic steroids is a reflection of the multiplicity of the metabolic responses of this organ to testosterone, its esters, and other androgens.
Abstract: The utility of the mouse kidney as a physiological tool for the study of the anabolic action of androgenic steroids is a reflection of the multiplicity of the metabolic responses of this organ to testosterone, its esters, and other androgens. These responses include increases in kidney weight, in nucleic acid content, and in the concentrations of a number of enzymes (1,2). In addition, acute effects of androgens upon the rates of incorporation of precursors into RNA and protein can be demonstrated.
TL;DR: In this paper, age changes in the perception of the autokinetic movement in children were studied, where 216 children were divided equally on the basis of age and sex between the ages of 7, 10, and 13.
Abstract: The present study concerned age changes in the perception of the latency and magnitude of autokinetic movement in children. Ss were 216 children divided equally on the basis of age and sex between the ages of 7, 10, and 13 yr. The children, in groups of three, were required to make judgments of the autokinetic phenomena while seated in a completely darkened room of a small mobile trailer. A green G. E. night light exposed through a YB-in. diameter opening was mounted on a one-way mirror approximately 7 fr. in front of Ss. This autokinetic stimulus was presented for 20 sec. followed by an 11-sec. off period for 15 trials. A masking noise was used throughout the experiment to reduce apparatus noise and Ss' collaboration. Ss in each group were of the same age and sex. Each S reported his magnitude judgments by writing his answer on a lum~nous pad during the time-out period between trials. Ss were instructed to judge the magnitude of movement in terms of inches. E showed each S a ruler with the inches clearly marked prior to the first trial in an attempt partially to standardize the unit of measurement. Ss were also instructed to press a silent telegraph key when they first saw the light appear to move. These responses were recorded on a four-channel Rustrak event recorder from which the latency measures were calculated.
TL;DR: In this paper, two groups of pigeons were trained in the presence of a white vertical line and the two groups were subdivided; half of each group was tested for generalization with a chromatic and half with a black surround.
Abstract: Two groups of pigeons were nondifferentially trained in the presence of a white vertical line. For one of these, the surround was chromatic; for the other, it was black. The two groups were subdivided; half of each group was tested for generalization with a chromatic and half with a black surround. The chromatic surround during training produced steeper angularity gradients than the black surround; surround color during generalization test did not influence angularity gradient slope.
