A Descriptive Study: Selection and Use of Art Mediums by Sexually Abused Adults: Implications in Counseling and Art Psychotherapy

This research was designed to explore what happens in the process of therapy when clients, having persisting symptoms of sexual abuse and having disclosed that abuse, have access to a wide variety of art materials to select and use in treatment. A blend of qualitative and quantitative research in design, the study is an initial step towards a greater understanding of the potentially transformative experience of art making and the role of art mediums in the practice of therapy. Treatment for abuse is a long, complex and arduous process. Persistent aspects of abusive experience remain deeply buried within the body and cause periodic, cyclical, somatic and psychological problems in an individual\u27s life. Clients often feel words are too immediate and too explicit to describe the experience and the resulting emotional response generated by sexual abuse. Created within the context of what psychiatrist Winnicott (1971) described as the good enough therapeutic relationship, artwork may be viewed as more concrete and symbolic, or less immediately explicit and therefore safer than verbal communications. Sensory-based therapies such as art therapy are, therefore, particularly useful in accessing traumatic memories and transforming the experience to a less damaging state. For this study, the author set up private practice to work as therapist with eight individuals for eight fifty-five minute sessions in a traditional art therapy studio. Each session was documented on videotape. Artwork was photographed. Videotapes, artwork, intake histories and the researcherltherapist\u27s notes were analyzed. Brief case studies were developed. Data were considered by frequencies and ordinal comparisons for immerging patterns. The data described art mediums as accessing cognitive, symbolic, emotional, perceptual, kinesthetic and sensory levels of understanding. A spiral model facilitated understanding the process. The potential to pace the process of therapy by direction and selection of more or less mediated, fluid and controllable art mediums was shown to exist. Through the spatial and kinesthetic processes of art making in art therapy, the individual controls recollection, comprehension, integration and resolution of trauma. Art mediums are central in art therapy as they safely provide the means of expression and reflection to transform trauma in the bodymind

A high speed data acquisition and analysis system for transonic velocity, density, and total temperature fluctuations

The high speed Dynamic Data Acquisition System (DDAS) is described which provides the capability for the simultaneous measurement of velocity, density, and total temperature fluctuations. The system of hardware and software is described in context of the wind tunnel environment. The DDAS replaces both a recording mechanism and a separate data processing system. The data acquisition and data reduction process has been combined within DDAS. DDAS receives input from hot wires and anemometers, amplifies and filters the signals with computer controlled modules, and converts the analog signals to digital with real-time simultaneous digitization followed by digital recording on disk or tape. Automatic acquisition (either from a computer link to an existing wind tunnel acquisition system, or from data acquisition facilities within DDAS) collects necessary calibration and environment data. The generation of hot wire sensitivities is done in DDAS, as is the application of sensitivities to the hot wire data to generate turbulence quantities. The presentation of the raw and processed data, in terms of root mean square values of velocity, density and temperature, and the processing of the spectral data is accomplished on demand in near-real-time- with DDAS. A comprehensive description of the interface to the DDAS and of the internal mechanisms will be prosented. A summary of operations relevant to the use of the DDAS will be provided

The NASA Langley laminar-flow-control experiment on a swept, supercritical airfoil: Evaluation of initial perforated configuration

The initial evaluation of a large-chord, swept, supercritical airfoil incorporating an active laminar-flow-control (LFC) suction system with a perforated upper surface is documented in a chronological manner, and the deficiencies in the suction capability of the perforated panels as designed are described. The experiment was conducted in the Langley 8-Foot Transonic Pressure Tunnel. Also included is an evaluation of the influence of the proximity of the tunnel liner to the upper surface of the airfoil pressure distribution

The NASA Langley Laminar-Flow-Control Experiment on a Swept Supercritical Airfoil: Basic Results for Slotted Configuration

The effects of Mach number and Reynolds number on the experimental surface pressure distributions and transition patterns for a large chord, swept supercritical airfoil incorporating an active Laminar Flow Control suction system with spanwise slots are presented. The experiment was conducted in the Langley 8 foot Transonic Pressure Tunnel. Also included is a discussion of the influence of model/tunnel liner interactions on the airfoil pressure distribution. Mach number was varied from 0.40 to 0.82 at two chord Reynolds numbers, 10 and 20 x 1,000,000, and Reynolds number was varied from 10 to 20 x 1,000,000 at the design Mach number

Design and experimental evaluation of a swept supercritical Laminar Flow Control (LFC) airfoil

A large chord swept supercritical laminar flow control (LFC) airfoil was designed, constructed, and tested in the NASA Langley 8-ft Transonic Pressure Tunnel (TPT). The LFC airfoil experiment was established to provide basic information concerning the design and compatibility of high-performance supercritical airfoils with suction boundary layer control achieved through discrete fine slots or porous surface concepts. It was aimed at validating prediction techniques and establishing a technology base for future transport designs and drag reduction. Good agreement was obtained between measured and theoretically designed shockless pressure distributions. Suction laminarization was maintained over an extensive supercritical zone up to high Reynolds numbers before transition gradually moved forward. Full-chord laminar flow was maintained on the upper and lower surfaces at M sub infinity = 0.82 up to R sub c is less than or equal to 12 x 10 to the 6th power. When accounting for both the suction and wake drag, the total drag could be reducted by at least one-half of that for an equivalent turbulent airfoil. Specific objectives for the LFC experiment are given

Comparing the performance between high school students with esteem needs and those with security needs in solving a problem through insight in a verbal learning situation

The purpose of this study was to compare the performance between high school students with esteem needs and those with security needs in discovering a two-second delay between correct response and feedback in a paired-associated learning task, Subjects had to determine which one of seven possible responses (digits) to a stimulus (consonant) was correct and then associate that correct response with its appropriate stimulus. The two-second delay confused them about which one of their responses was correct for each stimulus, since the delay caused feedback to coincide with the response following the correct one. Subjects had to discover the two second delay before they could identify the correct responses and associate them with their appropriate stimuli. Associating one item with another, e.g., π with 3.1416, is important for students. Even a cursory look at school tests reveals the emphasis schools place on memorizing verbal associations. The importance of this elementary form of learning lies primarily in its being basic to the more complex forms. Because of this importance, teachers should be aware of the characteristics of students that both help and hinder them in memorizing verbal associations. It is possible, for example, that whether students have a need for esteem or security may be related to their performance in discovering relationships among items within a verbal learning task. Knowing these relationships possibly could help them to memorize the items. It was predicted in this study that subjects with esteem needs would discover the two-second delay sooner than subjects with security needs and therefore perform better at memorizing the stimulus-response pairs in the experiment. Three variables in student ability to discover the two-second delay were examined. These were (a) esteem versus security needs, (b) type I versus type II information, and (c) practice over trials. Esteem and security needs were differentiated by using Simpson's Index of Psychological Deprivation (IPD), which is based on Maslow's classification of needs. The two types of information were provided through two different methods of feedback. Feedback was either a light coming on (type I), or a presentation of the stimulus-response pair (type II). There were four combinations of need type and information type. Nine subjects were placed in each group and were given 18 trials to learn six stimulus-response pairs. The effects of the three variables and their interactions were analyzed with a three-factor mixed analysis of variance design for repeated measures on one factor. Significance was set at the 0.05 level. The analysis indicated that (a) the type of information given to subjects affected their overall performance level, (b) subjects learned as a function of practice over trials, and (c) the rate of learning for subjects was dependent upon the type of information given to them. There was no significant effect of type of need on performance, either alone or in combination with the other two variables. It was found that type of need, as measured by the IPD, is a characteristic of high school students which neither helps, nor hinders their performance in discovering relationships which could aid them in memorizing verbal associations. This finding, however, only pertains to students from similar cultures. Therefore, teachers should not have to concern themselves with the esteem and security needs of students when teaching them skills for discovering relationships in verbal learning tasks, as long as the students are of the same race and represent similar socioeconomic levels and national heritages
