Measures of Androgyny
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page literature review that examines the various ways of measuring androgyny. In examining the methods of measurement we illustrate some specific studies which have researched individual androgynous concerns. With each of these studies it becomes more and more apparent that the most widely recognized measuring scale is the Bem Sex-Role Inventory, which essentially defines the masculine and feminine characteristics of an individual through the use of a questionnaire that uses adjectives with which the subject can rate themselves. While there are other methods, and while Bem’s inventory may not address all the issues of a particular study, the Bem Sex-Role Inventory is the most widely implemented measurement device in regards to androgyny. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Mechanisms Of Change—Cognitive Patterns
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing appropriate theories for mechanism of change. Piaget proposed adaptation and equilibration as two major mechanisms for cognitive change. Karmiloff-Smith proposed representational redescription, and others have proposed connectionist back-propagation as the mechanism. Still others have proposed a variety of learning mechanisms. From the beginning we were told that newborns were sponges, blank slates on which to write the lessons of life and who were, after reaching appropriate developmental age, eager to soak in as much information about their world as possible. It was only later that the theory of some form of innate knowledge, of collective memory, came about. This paper recommends Piaget's concepts as being of more use as mechanism for cognitive change. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
