Conditions of Learning and Response Mode: an Experiment Using Programmed Learning Materials in an African Secondary School - Lawless, Clive (Programmed learning & educational technology (1967), 1975)
Abstract The research was carried out in a secondary school in Malawi, Central Africa, using four programs in biology. The experiment compared multiple‐choice and constructed responding across four categories of learning (verbal association, generalisation, multiple discrimination and chaining). Analysis of covariance showed no significant differences on the post‐test scores between the two response modes in any of the four categories. There was a small number of significant differences in the analysis of covariance of the retention test scores, but no general pattern emerged. However, pupils who used the multiple‐choice versions of the programs took significantly less time to work through them.

Learning to Love Africa: My Journey from Africa to Harvard Business School and Back - Maddy, Monique (1975)
From the remote mountains of Liberia to the epicenter of New York City, Monique Maddy's life has been an extraordinary journey from an idyllic community to the chaos of city living. But Learning to Love is far more than an exile's dream of return. Sent to the west at the tender age of six by her doting father, Maddy has spent her entire life struggling to reclaimher father's dream of progress in his beloved homeland. Born in Yekepa, a tiny village transformed into a utopian global community by a Swedish multinational corporation, Maddy introduces us to her remarkable father, Emmanuel, an enterprising driver-turned-restaurateur, and her mother, Julia, the descendant of an equally remarkable family of Mandingo entrepreneurs. With loving descriptions of life in this developing world, Maddy introduces us to the sophisticated business skills of her ancestors and shows how her family's acumen and emotional strength became a launching pad for her own ambitions. In haunting passages that describe her schooling first in England and then in America, we see Maddy's gradual transformation from country girl to savvy intellectual. But her first attempt to return to the continent of her birth, under the auspices of the United Nations, leads only to embittered frustration when it becomes clear to her that the bureaucracy of the international organization will do little to actually improve the lives of Africans -- and will often make their already difficult existence even more miserable. Disillusioned, Maddy returns to the United States to attend Harvard Business School where she hatches a bold plan to start a telecommunications company in Africa. Rallying her fellow Harvardstudents, Maddy sets off to the continent of her birth once again. Learning to Love tells the story of her two-fisted battle against the corruption of African politics and economic life on one hand and the complacency of her Harvard intern team on the other. Unbowed by the obstacles in her way, Maddy tells a rousing tale of what it takes to build a business where the political framework for capitalism doesn't exist, and how to persevere in bringing Africa into the twenty-first century. Along the way, Maddy recounts with poignant regret and horror how her homeland slips into anarchy and civil war while her father's dream of a better life evaporates and his business and home are destroyed in the conflict. Emotionally charged, vividly described, and deeply felt, Learning to Love is a memoir of despair for Africa, which seemingly has been written off by the developed world, and of tempered optimism for the future Maddy knows Africa can achieve.

Mineral chemistry of peridotite xenoliths from the Lashaine volcano, Tanzania - Reid, A. M.; Donaldson, Colin H.; Brown, R. W.; Ridley, W. I.; Dawson, J. B. (Physics and chemistry of the earth, 1975)
Eight garnet peridotite and ten garnet-free peridotite xenoliths from the Lashaine volcano in northern Tanzania, and one garnet peridotite from the Matsoku pipe in Lesotho, were studied petrographically and by electron-microprobe techniques. The primary assemblages are ol + opx + cpx + ga, ol + opx + cpx + chr, ol + opx + ga + chr, ol + opx + ga, ol + opx + chr, and ol + cpx + chr. With the exception of the ol + cpx + chr assemblage, which is more iron-rich, the composition of each of the primary mineral species is essentially the same for all the xenoliths and is independent of the abundances of the minerals. The primary minerals are Ni-rich very low Ca olivine (Fo92), low Ca, Al, Cr, Ti, Mn,enstatite (Wo1En93Fs7), low Al, Ti, Mn chrome diopside (WO44En52Fs4), chrome pyrope and Mg, Al-rich chromite. Comparisons with phase equilibria studies suggest that the primary assemblages are stable at approximately 1050°C and 50 kbar, equivalent to a depth of approximately 150 km. The primary xenolith assemblages have been locally altered by three types of secondary processes. (1) Garnet has reacted with the adjacent olivine to produce reaction rims of aluminous orthopyroxene plus aluminous clinopyroxene plus spinel. (2) Some chrome-diopsides show marginal or total alteration that may result from secondary melting. (3) Extremely localized partial melting has occurred at some grain boundaries and the interstitial melt quenched to various combinations of olivine, clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene, spinel, phlogopite and glass. Garnet-bearing and garnet-free assemblages differ in bulk composition but have formed under similar physical conditions. The xenoliths derive from a region of the upper mantle that is homogeneous in terms of mineral compositions but heterogeneous, at least on the scale of the Lashaine xenoliths, in mineral proportions and bulk composition. Phlogopite in one garnet peridotite appears to be primary and several peridotites contain regions that have formed by localized melting of K-rich areas. Either the peridotites are not refractory residues from partial melting in the mantle or K-rich material has been added to them after partial melting but within the mantle, before incorporation into the ankaramite host.

Major and trace element chemistry of peridotite inclusions from the Lashaine volcano, Tanzania - Rhodes, J. M.; Dawson, J. B. (Physics and chemistry of the earth, 1975)
Whole rock analyses and selected trace element data are reported for nineteen, extremely fresh, peridotite xenoliths, together with the host ankaramite and associated carbonatite tuff, sampled from the Lashaine volcano in northern Tanzania. For comparison, data for a garnet peridotite from Matsoku in eastern Lesotho are included. These xenoliths are inferred to be derived from the garnet peridotite zone of the upper mantle from depths of about 150 km. The chemical data indicate that, despite considerable compositional heterogeneity, two distinct groups of peridotite inclusions have been sampled. One group, the garnet peridotites, are distinguished from the other group, the garnet-free peridotites, by higher concentrations of Al2O3 (> 1%) and lower amounts of MgO (< 46%). Other, less pronounced, differences include a tendency for higher concentrations of SiO2, CaO, Na2O, K2O, Cr2O3, Rb, Y, Zr and Nb, and higher RbSr ratios in the garnet peridotites than in the garnet-free rocks. Evidence is presented which indicates that the peridotite inclusions are accidental, and are genetically unrelated to the ankaramite host. It is also shown that in contrast with similar inclusions in kimberlite, most of the Lashaine inclusions have not been substantially contaminated by the host rocks. Consequently, the compositions of these inclusions are pertinent to questions concerning the composition of the upper mantle. In comparison with available data for peridotite inclusions and inferred mantle compositions, the Lashaine inclusions appear to be derived from residual mantle material. However, the K and Rb concentrations are at variance with this interpretation, since they are substantially higher than is typical for most uncontaminated peridotite inclusions, and would necessitate unacceptably high concentrations of these elements in the primary, undepleted material. Two interpretations are advanced: either the Lashaine garnet peridotite inclusions are themselves samples of relatively undepleted primary mantle material, or they are samples of depleted residual material that has been contaminated at or close to the source, prior to incorporation in the ankaramite magma.

LITHOPHILE TRACE ELEMENT DATA BEARING ON THE ORIGIN OF PERIDOTITE XENOLITHS, ANKARAMITE AND CARBONATITE FROM LASHAINE VOLCANO, N. TANZANIA - Ridley, W. I. (1975)
Rare-earth elements (REE) Rb, Sr and Ba have been determined in three garnet peridotites and a spinel peridotite that occur as xenoliths in ankaramite at Lashaine volcano. These element data have also been determined for the ankaramite and a closely associated carbonatite. Three peridotites have light REE-fractionated patterns, variable Rb, Sr and Sr87/Sr86 values which are consistent with mixing of peridotite with ankaramite. However, bulk contamination by either ankaramite or carbonatite is inconsistent with other major and trace element data. Remaining alternatives are selective elemental transfer between xenoliths and host or contamination within the mantle prior to incorporation within the ankaramite/carbonatite magma. The ankaramite has a highly fractionated REE pattern but is less enriched in lithophile trace elements than many alkalic rocks. The carbonatite has a fractionated pattern, but is significantly depleted in large ion lithophile elements compared to most other igneous carbonatites. Single-stage melting of mantle material is unlikely to have produced the carbonatite, and derivation of the carbonatite from a carbonated ankaramite magma requires substantial fractionation of some lithophile trace elements into the carbonatite and others into the ankaramite.

African Responses to Christian Mission Education - Berman, Edward H. (African Studies Review, 1974)
Missionary domination of African education is a dying phenomenon. Today's church-affiliated institutions in Africa, while still mindful of their proselytizing duties, subordinate their religious messages to the rigors of academic preparation. The realities of contemporary African nation-building preclude any other course. Just as increasing nationalistic impulses and socio-economic considerations during the 19th century forced European politicians to recognize that education of their youth was too important to be left to the various confessions, so increasingly are African leaders coming to a similar conclusion. The shift from denominational to state control of the educational system is well advanced in many nations. In 1942, 97% of Nigeria's student population was enrolled in missionary schools; today missionary education has been banned in the East Central State of Nigeria—the heartland of the highly Christianized Ibos—and is steadily declining with the strengthening of the Local Education Authorities in other areas of Nigeria (Coleman, 1958: 113). As recently as 1950, missionary schools accounted for 97% of the total enrollment in Ghanaian schools; twelve years later the government assumed the responsibility tor the payment of salaries of all teachers, irrespective of the type of school in which they taught (Anim, 1966: 189). In an attempt to remove the school issue from the arena of sectarian politics the government of Uganda abolished the posts of mission school supervisors in 1963, placing their functions in the hands of secular authorities (Hindmarsh, 1966: 145). In 1945 there were 5,360 mission-run schools for Africans in South Africa and only 230 state-sponsored schools;

Copper Pollution in Rwenzori National Park, Uganda - Edroma, E. L. (Journal of Applied Ecology, 1974)
It is well known that high concentrations of some heavy metals are toxic to green plants and that in excessive quantities they are poisonous and cause death to most living organisms (Antonovics, Bradshaw & Turner 1971; Lin Wu & Bradshaw 1972). Otto (1893) observed a reduction in growth rates of garden crops grown in nutrient solution derived from a copper still. Sommer (1931) found that root development was inhibited in some species at a concentration of copper of 0 25 mg I1-. Accumulated copper from fertilizers and foliar sprays was found to cause chlorosis in Citrus and at 100-250 ppm caused stunting of seedlings (Reuter & Smith 1952). Struckmayer, Peterson & Hsi-Mei Tai (1969) observed similar inhibitory effects of high copper levels on tobacco. Bradshaw (1952), Wilkins (1957), Jowett (1958), Lin Wu & Bradshaw (1972) and Cole (1973) have described plant populations on abandoned heavy metal mine workings. Adaptation within plant populations to soils containing heavy metals was shown by Melchers (1939) and Snaydon & Bradshaw (1961, 1962). In Uganda the problem of high level copper exists in the natural vegetation of the Rwenzori National Park. Bare patches of ground surrounded by poor vegetation occur in the park (Fig. 1) caused by copper toxicity.There is no copper outcropping in the park, and nearest is the copper mine at Kilembe which is 11 km distant (Fig. 1). The copper contamination has entered the park from the pyrite dams at Kilembe through drainage channels and from three copper concentrate leakages discovered by Barrett (1972) along the Kilembe Roast leach pipe line. The leakage spills were washed down slope into the rivers which eventually drained into the park. The prevention of further pollution is a matter of vital urgency both for the area facing contamination and dereliction, and for the wildlife threatened by incurable and irreversible damage. To provide a sound basis for taking preventive measures an investigation was carried out. (a) To find out sites of copper concentrate spill from the copper Kilembe/Roast Leach Line, and other areas of suspected spillage, and to follow their routes into the park. (b) To estimate copper in the soil. (c) To estimate the copper contents in the plant shoots surrounding the bare patches. (d) To estimate the damage done to the distribution and abundance of plant populations. (e) To estimate the effect of the dereliction of the patches to the invertebrate populations in the contaminated area. (f) To germinate and follow the fate of grass seedlings. (g) To look for copper tolerance in the grass species present in the area.

Chromatographic Fractionation and Partial Characterization of Acid Phosphatase in Guinea-Pig Epidermis **Department of Department of Dermatology, Kyushu University School of Medicine, Fukuoka, 812, Japan - Miyagawa, Teruo; Kōda, Hiromu; Urabe, Harukuni (Journal of investigative dermatology, 1974)
Two chromatographically and enzymatically distinct forms of acid phosphatase have been separated by gel filtration from an extract of guinea-pig epidermis. These enzymes, termed APase 1 and APase 2 , had pH optima for p -nitrophenyl phosphate hydrolysis around 5.0. APase 1 was inhibited by fluoride, L(+) tartrate, and lead nitrate, but was insensitive to formaldehyde and glutaraldehyde. In contrast, Apase 2 was insensitive to fluoride, L(+) tartrate, and lead nitrate, but was sensitive to formaldehyde and glutaraldehyde. K m values for APase 1 and APase 2 with p -nitrophenyl phosphate as substrate were 0.09mM and 0.125 mM, respectively.

Tar pollution of Sierra Leone beaches - Okera, W. (Nature, 1974)
THE widespread occurrence of pelagic tar and plastic wastes in parts of the Pacific and Atlantic oceans has been described previously1. Extensive and considerable fouling of the sandy beaches of Sierra Leone by tar lumps has now been observed at Lumley, Sussex, No. 2, Toke and Mamah villages (Fig. 1) during the past 14 months (June, 1973 to July, 1974). Large quantities of soft, brownish-black lumps (up to 7–8 cm diameter) have been repeatedly washed ashore along the entire stretch (about 6 km) of Lumley beach. This reaches a maximum during June to August, probably because of onshore south-western Monsoonal winds and the increased eastward flow of the Guinea Current during May to October2. On August 4, 1974, tar lumps were also observed 1–2 km up the No. 2 River estuary; and during Easter, 1974, a 4–5 km stretch of the sandy beach at Shenge village (7° 56′N 12° 56′W) at the southern tip of Yawri Bay, was also littered with the pollutant. Observations have not been made south of Shenge and north of Freetown (8° 29′N 13° 4′W) but the extent of current pollution tends to suggest that the whole Sierra Leone coastline, and perhaps those of the flanking countries as well, may be subject to frequent tar pollution, probably originating from the heavy, offshore traffic of tankers and ships.

Productive Labour and the School System: Contradictions in the Training of Artisans in Kenya - King, Kenneth J. (Comparative Education, 1974)
The issue of productive labour in African school systems raises very different questions from the experience of this in either Russia or China [1]. At first sight, such work seems now to be conspicuously absent from the primary and secondary schools of most countries except Tanzania. Nevertheless, it has begun to be the subject of some considerable debate even in those countries where it does not apparently figure at all in the ordinary school curriculum [2]. The reasons have to do with the wider political economy of many African states in the 1970s, and not least with the widespread phenomenon of educated, unskilled unemployment. It may perhaps therefore be useful to sketch out the major lines of this recent concern, illustrating the argument primarily with data from Kenya. The central focus of this current speculation are the tens of thousands who in a number of countries have espoused some form of self-employment during the last decade. They may be viewed as in some sense the product of the massive and continuing school boom on the one hand and the extremely sluggish growth of wage and salary jobs on the other. As it became clear during the 1960s that African economies were simply not going to be able to offer a form of regular paid employment to the majority of primary and junior secondary school leavers, the social and political consequences of large-scale open unemployment were frequently alluded to as Africa's likeliest long-term disease. Empirical work, however, began to uncover that the school leaver group, which had been feared as the aspiring and potentially disruptive element in African society, had embraced forms of self-employment on a scale unprecedented during the colonial period. While this was considered a favourable omen by agencies and funds intimately concerned with employment creation-notably ILO and the World Bank-this phenomenon of what people began to call 'informal sector' employment raised a set of new questions, many of them bearing directly on the relationship between self-employment and the conventional academic school system. The one which concerns productive labour most closely was that very considerable numbers of young people had gained an artisan skill, even though their seven to eleven years of schooling had been completely devoid of prevocational bias, let alone any practical work experience. There seems something of a paradox in this; for on the one hand planners wished to justify the ever increasing costs of primary schooling (during 1974 alone two of the most education-conscious states-Kenya and Nigeria-are pledged to make their primary expenditures still higher, by

Education and the development of farming in two areas of Zambia - Vanzetti, N.; Bessell, J. E. (Journal of Development Studies, 1974)
Traditional agriculture, based on the maximisation of security, was necessary within the context of traditional society, but it is inappropriate for the earning of the money necessary to live in a modern society. For this an individual frequently aims at the maximisation of profits, and in doing so takes risks which a traditional cultivator would not take. It is not just a matter of his working harder, but also his adopting the improved techniques and improved inputs of modern technology2 [Schultz, 1964, p. 37]. The constraints preventing a cultivator from adopting improved practices can be classified into two main groups: economic and technical constraints, and personal and cultural constraints. This article will look briefly at how education has contributed to the overcoming of the personal and cultural constraints on the development of farming. Notes This article is a summary of a report by Dr Vanzetti entitled ‘Education and the Development of Farming in Two Areas of Zambia’, obtainable from the Department of Agriculture and Horticulture, University of Nottingham School of Agriculture, 1972. The report was based on data which was collected for the Universities of Nottingham and Zambia Agricultural Labour Productivity Investigation (UNZALPI). N. R.

Petrography and geochemistry of the Cape Hoskins volcanoes, New Britain, Papua New Guinea - Blake, D. H.; Ewart, A. (Journal of the Geological Society of Australia, 1974)
Abstract The Cape Hoskins volcanoes form part of the Quaternary volcanic island arc that extends from Rabaul in the east to the Schouten Islands in the west, and they overlie the northerly dipping New Britain Benioff Zone. The products of the volcanoes range in composition from basalt to rhyolite, and are normative in quartz and hypersthene. They contain phenocrysts of plagioclase and subordinate augite, hypersthene, and in most samples iron‐titanium oxides; some samples also contain olivine or quartz or both, and some pumice contains hornblende and, rarely, biotite. Chemical analyses of 29 volcanic rocks are presented; 22 were also analysed for 17 minor elements — Rb, Ba, Sr, Pb, Zn, Cu, Zr, Y, Ni, Co, Sc, Cr, V, Ga, B, U, and Th. Chemically the rocks have many of the characteristics of the ‘island arc tholeiitic series’, but do not show a pronounced relative enrichment in iron and appear to be relatively enriched in Sr. Compared with volcanic rocks from the northern part of the Willaumez Peninsula, they are lower in K (but not Na), Ti, Rb, Ba, Zr, Pb, Th, Ni, and probably also V, Cu, and Zn: these differences are attributed to the greater depth of the Benioff Zone beneath the Willaumez Peninsula. The more basic of the Cape Hoskins rocks are similar in most respects to lavas of comparable composition from Ulawun volcano to the east.

Large earthquakes in the New Guinea-Solomon Islands area, 1873–1972 - Everingham, I. B. (Tectonophysics, 1974)
A catalogue of 1873–1972 earthquakes with M > 6.9 for the New Guinea—Solomon Islands region (130–165° E) is compiled. There are 152 events listed. Duda's (1965) results for 1900–1968 are improved for the Papua New Guinea area (141–156° E) because of the availability of historical data for that area. Although there is evidence of rapid Holocene uplift in the main seismic zones, there is little historical evidence for visible uplift or subsidence resulting directly from modern major earthquakes. Coastal subsidences commonly reported as a result of earthquakes are of smaller extent and appear to be due to settlement. However, the occurrence of tsunamigenic earthquakes does suggest that surface deformations do take place off-shore. Using Davies and Brune's (1971) method, regional fault slip rates over 5° -segments of the shallow seismic zone are determined from the seismicity catalogue. The slip rate for the island of New Guinea (Gutenberg and Richter's Region 16) is found to be at least 4.4 cm/y which is almost double the very anomalously low rate of 2.3 cm/y found by Davies and Brune (1971). If allowance is made for shear movement without seismicity and for the approximately 21 ratio of dip-slip versus strike-slip faulting indicated by fault plane solutions, the agreement with Le Pichon's (1970) approach value of 10.7 cm/y for the Pacific—India (Australia) plates is reasonable. The fault slip rate in the area between east New Britain and Bougainville at the Pacific—Bismarck—Solomon triple junction is extremely high (20.6 cm/y at least). The smallest slip rate (1.5 cm/y) is found for westernmost New Guinea (130–135° E). Temporal cumulative summation of moments curves show a periodicity of approximately 25 years in the seismic activity at the triple junction (150–155° E). Elsewhere the rate of seismic activity is aperiodic.

Volcanoes and rocks of St Andrew Strait, Papua New Guinea - Johnson, R. W.; Smith, I. E. (Journal of the Geological Society of Australia, 1974)
Abstract When Tuluman volcano, in St Andrew Strait, northern Bismarck Sea, erupted between 1953 and 1957, it produced acid rocks similar in major element chemistry to those of three other islands in the Strait — Lou, Pam Lin, and Pam Mandian. These acid rocks — termed the TLP’ series — are thought to represent magmas, or to be derivatives of a parental magma, produced by melting of crust (about 25 km thick beneath St Andrew Strait). TLP rocks have agpaitic indices ranging between 0.86 and 0.96. Acid lava also makes up 3 of the 4 Fedarb Islands at the northern end of St Andrew Strait, but its composition appears to be unrelated to that of the TLP series, and its origin is uncertain. Q‐normative basalts (quartz tholeiites) make up the fourth island of the Fedarb group, and ol‐ and hy‐normative basalts crop out on Baluan Island at the southern end of the Strait. These basalt types do not appear to be directly related to one another, although both may have been derived from parents that originated in the upper mantle. Andesitic rocks have not been found on any of the islands in St Andrew Strait. Tuluman and the volcanoes of Lou Island form an arc which may be part of a developing (or completed) ring fracture whose centre coincides with the line between Baluan Island, the Pam Islands, and the Fedarb Islands. The ring fracture may be the result of sagging of crust above a zone of crustal melting that produced the TLP magmas. It is possible that collapse could take place along this ring fracture, producing a caldera.

Geophysical Studies of North African Cenozoic Volcanic Areas I: Haruj Assuad, Libya - Ade-Hall, J. M.; Reynolds, P. H.; Dagley, P.; Mussett, A. E.; Hubbard, T. P.; Klitzsch, Eberhard (Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 1974)
This study is the first of a series in which a main concern will be to establish the Neogene absolute motion of the African Plate. A combined palaeomagnetic and K–Ar whole rock age dating study has been made of the Haruj Assuad basaltic volcanic area of central Libya. Seventy volcanic units, largely pahoehoe basaltic flows, were sampled in the north-central Haruj Assuad in an area centred on 27°45′ N, 017°30′E. Precisely defined paleomagnetic directions were obtained for 68 of the volcanic units and a weighted mean pole at 83°N, 171°E (δp = 5°, δm = 9°) obtained. This pole is just significantly different at the 95% level from the geographic pole. The difference between the paleomagnetic and geographic poles is thought to be largely the result of a degree of nonrepresentative sampling of the geomagnetic field. K–Ar radiometric age data indicate that volcanic activity in the Haruj Assuad area continued at least over the interval 6.0 to 0.4 my. The polarities of dated units are in agreement with the predictions of the time polarity scale. The ages of dated flows indicate that most of the flows presently exposed are younger than 2.2 my (i.e.) Upper Pliocene and younger. A scheme for assigning relative ages to groups of flows by degree of surface weathering is now calibrated in part with absolute ages.

Keywords: openalex:import

Air Pollution in New Guinea - Master, Kenneth (JAMA, 1974)
Inhabitants of villages in the Highlands of New Guinea wear scant clothing. To keep warm during cold nights they burn smoky fires in small closed huts, where they inhale extremely high levels of particulate matter and aldehydes. Pulmonary disease, mainly obstructive but also restrictive, appears at an early age and was present in 78% of subjects over age 40 years. Severely affected subjects have diminished breath sounds, coarse rales, and decreased chest cage movement. Pathologic specimens from affected subjects demonstrated centrilobular emphysema, thickened pleura, pulmonary fibrosis, mucous gland hypertrophy, and deposition of anthracotic pigment. Other factors probably responsible for the high prevalence of pulmonary disease include smoking of home grown tobacco, protein malnutrition, poor sanitation, and various endemic diseases.

Administrative Training and Development: A Comparative Study of East Africa, Zambia, Pakistan and India - Tepper, Elliot L.; Schaffer, Bernard (1974)
Having read most of the literature both on participative management and industrial democracy, I have to conclude that much of it needs to move from value-laden prescriptions to the crucial issues of proper implementation. We should be asking and answering such questions as: Under what conditions is participation most appropriate (personalities, organizations, types of decisions, and so forth)? How does one hold groups accountable for poor decisions? Until managers and researchers come to grips with these real problems and issues, I foresee little success for participation whether it takes individual or organizational form.

Mental Handicap in Rhodesian African Children - Axton, J. H. M.; Lévy, L. (Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1974)
SUMMARY A retrospective analysis is presented of the aetiology of mental handicap in 212 Rhodesian African children. In 23 per cent the cause of the mental retardation was primary (present at birth), in 27 per cent there was a well‐documented acquired cause and in the remaining 50 per cent the aetiology was unknown. The findings are discussed in relation to social and medical conditions in Rhodesia, and an outline is given of the authors' approach to the retarded child in Rhodesia. RÉSUMÉ Les auteurs présentent une analyse rétrospective du retard mental chez 212 enfants africains de Rhodésie. Dans 23 pour cent des cas, la cause du retard mental était primitive (présente à la naissance), dans 27 pour cent des cas, on a relevé une cause acquise bien precise et l'origine est restée inconnue dans 50 pour cent des cas. Ces fails sont discutés en function des conditions sociales et médicales de Rhodésie et un aperçu est donné de l'approche par les auteurs des enfants retardés de Rhodésie. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Es wird über eine retrospektive Analyse der ätiologie geistiger Retardierung bei 212 afrikanischen Kindern in Rhodesien berichtet. Bei 23 Prozent bestand eine primäre Ursache der geistigen Retardierung (bei Geburt vorhanden), bei 27 Prozent war sie gut dokumentiert erworben und bei den restlichen 50 Prozent war die Ätiologie unbekannt.

IMPACT OF THE SAHELIAN DROUGHT IN MAURITANIA, WEST AFRICA - Greene, MarkH. (The Lancet, 1974)
Data were needed for the planning of disaster relief in West Africa, which has been subject to a prolonged drought. A nationwide survey was undertaken to determine the nutritional status of the Mauritanians and the rates of important communicable diseases. The main findings were that: (a) acute malnutrition was most severe among nomads; (b) malnutrition was of the marasmic variety; (c) severe vitamin deficiency was present in isolated pockets; (d) measles was present in epidemic proportions; (e) a cholera outbreak occurred and was controlled; and (f) crude mortality-rates were as much as three times normal. The Government's remarkably effective food-distribution programme was modified as results of the survey became known. The cholera outbreak demonstrated the detection and response capability of the country's communicable-disease surveillance system. Vitamin supplementation was undertaken in areas with high rates of vitamin deficiency. Recommendations included intensified measles vaccination efforts and institution of periodic nutritional surveillance to facilitate appropriate food distribution.

Poison-based avoidance learning with flavored or colored water in guinea pigs - Braveman, Norman S. (Learning and Motivation, 1974)
Guinea pigs were fed a solution which had a distinctive taste or appearance and one hr later were made sick by an intraperitoneal injection of lithium chloride. Upon recovery from the effects of sickness the animals in Expt 1 showed aversions to a weak tasting, sour solution or to a strong tasting, sweet solution. Animals in Expt 2 formed aversions to tap water which had been colored either red or blue while those in Expt 3 formed aversions to tap water which had been presented in either red or blue drinking tubes. When, however, sickness was not contingent upon drinking a distinctive solution there was no sign of decreased consumption of the test solutions. The differences between the outcome of the Expts 2 and 3 and those typically found with rats can be explained by the fact that guinea pigs appear to use both taste and visual cues in food selection whereas rats primarily use only gustatory cues. Since vision in the guinea pig is no more acute than vision in rats and substantially more limited than vision in other animals who have formed aversions to visual cues, the results of Expts 2 and 3 also suggest that the ability to form poison-based aversions to visual cues is not totally dependent upon a highly developed visual system.

Science educators and individual teachers have attempted to adapt global learning strategies to the local cultural environment, This research provides empirical evidence for one culture, the KpaNende. Anthropological field methods were used to collect data to develop a base from which to ask meaningful questions_ about natural phenomena. The sample schools in general Were found tooffer relatively little explicit science instructionconcerning, natural phenomena of major: concern to -the Kpa-Nende,-ClassrOom instruction tended to emphasize more abstract scientifickcenceptS. Students were interviewed concerning the explanation -for 12 natural phenomena. In the pilot study, using a three!pOint grading for:school answers, the student responses without home explanations were to044 to be statistically more like the schools thavthoso with home explanations, The main study ranked the phenomena-according to the percentage of fathers who discussed a single coltOre /OA atthome.A correlation of the adult percentage with student-grouped scares was not significant, A correlation of adult percentage With those of students expressing the same explanations was significant at the .05 _ level. It was noted that many of the students failed to use school information. Strategies need to be developed to sensitize teachers to nonschool learning.

Education for the Palestine Refugees: The UNRWA/UNESCO Programme - Dickerson, George (Journal of Palestine Studies, 1974)
One of the most profound concerns of the Palestine refugees is education. Even though their very survival was threatened as hundreds of thousands of refugees fled Israeli-held Palestine in 1948, schools were almost immediately established in the first refugee camps in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and the Gaza Strip. Over the succeeding twenty-six years the need and the demand has grown and intensified as the refugees recognized that only through education, including specialized training, would their children be able to secure jobs in and outside of the Arab host countries. Education would also help to reaffirm the refugees' sense of community and maintain their dignity as individuals and families. For the most part, the task of meeting this demand for education has been the responsibility of UNRWA since the Agency began operations on May 1, 1950. Under a continuing agreement with Unesco, UNRWA has the administrative and financial task of constructing and maintaining schools and providing teachers, while Unesco provides the technical guidance for and supervision of the education programme: in practice, Unesco seconds the Director of Education, other senior staff and specialists to UNRWA for the education programme.

Such storm deposits or “tempestites” are thought to be much more common than is usually recognized, and in certain climatic situations they are likely to be the rule rather than the exception.

Volcanic ash and its clay mineralogy at Cape Hoskins, New Britain, Papua New Guinea - Bleeker, P.; Parfitt, R. L. (Geoderma, 1974)
Volcanic ash falls, the oldest laid down approximately 2500 years ago, are described and correlated wherever possible. Most of these ash deposits are thought to have been derived from the Garbuna volcano, located about 40–50 km from Cape Hoskins. Clay mineral data show with increasing age a weathering sequence in the beds in which allophane changes to halloysite. Charcoal data indicate that large amounts of halloysite are present in fossil soil horizons dated between 300 and 2000 years B.P. This compares with a date of 8000–9000 years from Japan,whereas data from St. Vincent indicate that halloysite can be formed under humid tropical conditions within 4000 years.

Spatial and non-spatial discrimination reversal (SDR) learning in the guinea pig - Jonson, Keith M.; Lyle, J. G.; Edwards, M. J.; Penny, Ralph (Animal Behaviour, 1974)
Spatial and non-spatial serial discrimination reversal performance was investigated in guinea pigs over eleven reversals. Difference in learning ability between albino and pigmented strains was not evident on spatial or non-spatial SDR tasks. The guinea pigs' ability to learn rapidly successive spatial and non-spatial reversals with increasing proficiency corresponds well with previous published findings using other mammalian species. These studies also demonstrated behavioural research with the guinea pig to require extended periods of intensive experimental management.
