The present study is the first phase of a longitudinal investigation designed to isolate non-intellective factors which might increase the power to predict academic success. (Author/RK)

The purpose of this study was to investigate teacher control of student generated noise in a realistic university setting. (Author)

This paper focused on evaluation efforts related to projects involving performance contracts and some of the major problems encountered. (Author/RK)

The study reported here represents an attempt to obtain research-based information relevant to young children's learning to print. Treatment variables were selected which seemed to have high potential for improving the state of handwriting instruction. (Author)

The present paper examined some of the major variables already known to be associated with the phenomena of early withdrawal from school to see what extent these data confirm those of other investigators. (Author/RK)

Article explored what teachers considered as good or ideal teaching behavior, ideal teacher soliciting behaviors, ideal teacher reacting behaviors, and the ideal teaching-learning environment. (Author/RK)

The present study is designed to find the dimensions of the elementary school environment and has generated an instrument, the revised Elementary School Environment Survey, which measures elementary school environments along specific dimensions. (Author/RK)

An experimental program was developed for children in order to assess their self concept, anxiety, and relative degree of self-responsibility for school successes and failures. (Author/RK)

The problem of this investigation was to ascertain the relative effects of two teaching strategies, discovery and expository (telling), on the learning of economic concepts by first grade students, as measured by a criterion test instrument. (Author)

Article describes two studies designed to develop an adequate level of reading comprehension for elementary students. A technique, known as an advanced organizer, is used. (RK)

The present study was designed to determine the effectiveness of a short (20 hours) training program in human relations skills for elementary student teachers. (Author)

The present study, designed as a pilot study to provide an empirical basis for modifying the PEP testing program, investigated the possibility that teachers could accurately evaluate learning progress without formal testing. (Author)

Purpose of the study was to determine if personological and methodological factors interact as predicted with the ultimate aim being to discover ways to optimize the teaching of word attack skills. (Author/RK)

It was the purpose of this study to identify functional parameters of large-city, public school research bureaus. It was anticipated that the emergence of those dimensions would provide a basis for future functional comparisions. (Author)

This study was performed to investigate the effects of readjusting the use of time by students. Author suggests that closer attention to distinctions between filler, enrichment, and learning performances may improve the chances for children's academic success. (Author/RK)
