Longitudinal Assessment of Maxillary and Mandibular Molar and Incisor Dentoalveolar Heights and Growth Rates in Class I Subjects with Varied Craniofacial Growth Patterns as Classified by Directional and Proportionate Methods

Objective: To determine if significant differences exist in dentoalveolar heights and dentoalveolar height growth rates, among skeletal Class I subjects that exhibit differing craniofacial growth patterns.Methods: One hundred and five subjects with cephalograms available at 9, 12, 14, and 16 years were categorized into directional (change in Y-axis angle) and proportionate (UFH:LFH) growth pattern groups. Maxillary and mandibular molar and incisor dentoalveolar heights and dentoalveolar height growth rates were determined. Comparisons were made by mixed model and ANOVA.Results: Neither dentoalveolar heights, nor growth rates differed significantly among directional classification groups in either gender. All dentoalveolar heights differed significantly among all proportionate classification groups at all ages in both male and female subjects. Conclusions: No statistically significant differences were found in dentoalveolar heights or dentoalveolar height growth rates of different directional growth pattern groups. Statistically significant differences were found in all dentoalveolar heights of different proportionate growth pattern groups.M.Sc

Austrian vs. Jew : the torn identity of Joseph Roth.

Delivered at the Joseph Roth Symposium, 29 December 1970.Examines the duality of being an Austrian and a Jew and the difficulties of coming to terms with one's identity as a minority in an antisemitic environment, as well as the role of assimilation in one's identity

Devouring Mechanization: Arthur Miller and the Proto-Posthuman

In this chapter, I explore Miller's fascination with the mechanization of mid-20th century US domestic and work spaces, arguing that his interest takes the form of a proto-posthumanism. More specifically, I interrogated his recurring interest in broken engines and machine parts, which he employs as both material reality of contemporary urban industrialised living, and as powerful metaphor for a range of malfunctioning systems

Age differences in neophilia, exploration, and innovation in family groups of callitrichid monkeys.

The prevailing assumption in the primate literature is that young or juvenile primates are more innovative than adult individuals. This innovative tendency among the young is frequently thought to be a consequence, or side effect, of their increased rates of exploration and play. Conversely, Reader and Laland’s [International Journal of Primatology 22:787–806, 2001] review of the primate innovation literature noted a greater reported incidence of innovation in adults than nonadults, which they interpreted as (in part) a reflection of the greater experience and competence of older individuals. Within callitrichids there is contradictory evidence for age differences in response to novel bjects, foods, and foraging tasks. By presenting novel extractive foraging tasks to family groups of callitrichid monkeys in zoos, we examined, in a large sample, whether there are positive or negative relationships of age with neophilia, exploration, and innovation, and whether play or experience most facilitates innovation. The results indicate that exploration and innovation (but not neophilia) are positively correlated with age, perhaps reflecting adults’ greater manipulative competence. To the extent that there was evidence for play in younger individuals, it did not appear to contribute to innovation. The implications of these findings for the fields of innovation and conservation through reintroduction are considered
