Origins of the Southern Conservation Revolt, 1932-1940 (open access)

Origins of the Southern Conservation Revolt, 1932-1940

During the political interlude between Wilson and Roosevelt, the United States was under the leadership of the Republican party which adhered to a conservative philosophy. While this regime continued, conservative southerners were content, but in 1933, Franklin Roosevelt, who had campaigned on the need for a "New Deal" was inaugurated President. Although southerners readily accepted the relief and recovery features of the first phase of the Roosevelt program, they opposed his program of sweeping reform because it constituted an impeding threat to intrenched political and economic interests in the South.

The Effects of Group Membership upon Birth Order Differences in Anxiety and Affiliation (open access)

The Effects of Group Membership upon Birth Order Differences in Anxiety and Affiliation

The present study has a twofold purpose. First, it will attempt to ascertain whether ordinal position remains an effective discriminator of affiliative need and level of anxiety within the selective confines of a strong social organization, a college sorority; or whether the selective criterion of membership in the strong social organization tends to suppress the differences in affiliative need and level of anxiety between the ordinal positions. Secondly, it will attempt to further explore the relationship between affiliation and dependency.

The second objective was to construct a self-rating scale of personality traits shown by past research to be associated with creativity.
