The problem of this investigation was to compare the linguistic competence of learning disabled and emotionally disturbed pupils by means of two performance tasks. Sixty subjects, seven-and-eight-year old monolingual public and private school pupils, were assigned to three groups of twenty subjects each, learning disabled, emotionally disturbed and normally achieving children. The majority of those in the learning disabled and the normally achieving groups were from middle-class families, with the majority of fathers owners of small businesses. A majority (17) of the emotionally disturbed group attended the public schools.

Although many theorists have speculated that chronic pain may be linked to some sort of central neuropsychological integration deficit, a review of the current literature reveals no empirical support for this theory. This study attempts to assess the severity, if any, of neuropsychological deficits in chronic pain subjects by using a neuropsychological screen developed at the University of North Texas. Also, presented are studies of correlations between the UNT Neuropsych-screen and the MMPI. the Dallas Pain Questionnaire (DPQ), the Dallas Pain Drawing CDPD), and time since injury in order to assess any possible relationships. The subjects in this study consist of 100 volunteers. Of these subjects, 74 were patients of the Spinal and Chronic Pain Center at Medical Arts Hospital in Dallas, Texas and represented the clinical population. The remaining 26 subjects were staff volunteers from the hospital . The results of the study indicate significant differences between chronic pain subjects and non-pain subjects across many areas of neuropsychological functioning, as well as other significant correlations among many of the variables. The implications of this study are elaborated upon, in the discussion section, in detail along with limitations and future research directions.

This paper is written to present the design purpose and design process of the Multiple Window Editor. Multiple Window Editor is a software which allows the user to edit or view different files or the same file on the screen by the window facilities provided by this software. All the windows can be dynamically created, changed, moved, and destroyed. The main purpose of this program is to improve the programming environment for the users. The design motivations will be introduced through the comparison of the present existing window facilities and the editor components. The design process will be introduced by analyzing the design decision, design tradeoffs and implementation problems.

It is frequently considered to be apparent two stages during assembly time. The first is the preprocessor stage in which a single instruction called the micro instruction is replaced with the sequence of instructions called the macro definition. The second is the processor stage in which the output from the first stage is assembled into machine language instructions for a particular computer. This paper descibes the first one which is macro-preprocessor stage.
