The Relationship Between Certain Mental Characteristics and Achievement of Students in the Seventh and Eighth Grades of the Cleburne Junior High School

Description: The purpose of this study is to determine the extent of pupil failure in the seventh and eighth grades of the Cleburne Junior High School, to determine to what extent certain mental characteristics contribute to pupil failure and success, and to submit some suggestions as to how pupil failure may be reduced to a minimum in the seventh and eighth grades of the Cleburne Junior High School, Cleburne, Texas.

The Relationship of Hearing to School Achievement

Description: The problem of this study is to determine the relationship of hearing to school achievement. More specifically, the problem is to compare the hard-of-hearing child with the normal hearing child of approximately the same intelligence quotient and similar home background in their academic progress in the elementary school to determine the educational loss due to this specific defect.

Some Properties of Negligible Sets

Description: In the study of sets of points certain sets are found to be negligible, especially when applied to the theory of functions. The purpose of this paper is to discuss three of these "negligible" types, namely, exhaustible sets, denumerable sets, and sets of Lebesgue measure zero. We will present a complete existential theory in q-space for the three set properties mentioned above, followed by a more restricted discussion in the linear continuum by use of interval properties.

Some Variation Properties of Real-Valued Functions

Description: The purpose of this paper is two-fold; we shall first establish a complete existential theory of functions of one real variable with respect to continuity, uniform continuity, absolute continuity, bounded variation, and Lipschitz condition, and second we shall study set-functions in a similar manner, except that the properties to be considered will be continuity, absolute continuity, bounded variation, and additivity.
