Useful approaches include the study of the effects of anxiety (Elton 8t Stanley, 1976), cognitive dissonance (Brock & Buss, 1962; Zimbardo et al., 1966), perceptual variables (Petrie, 1967), and responsiveness to hypnosis (Hilgard & Hilgard, 1975). ...

These multivariate instruments pertain to the psychological domains of personality, motivation and mood respectively. Canonical/redundancy analysis (Stewart & Love, 1968) was employed on a sample of 258 Australian college students for the 8SQ/MAT measures, and on a subsample of 135 students for the 16PF/MAT and 16PF/8SQ measures. Results demonstrated a marginal overlap in measurement variance for the 16PF and 8SQ, while only very slight redundancy was observed for the 16PF/MAT and 8SQ/MAT intersections. It was concluded that all three instruments are efficient measures of essentially separate psychological modalities.

Both dichoptic and binocular presentations were used and separation thresholds were at greater interstimulus intervals for the dichoptic condition. Dyslexics had thresholds at greater intervals than controls. These differences were significant and there was no significant interaction of group by dichoptic condition. The relative magnitudes of difference between dyslexics and controls were as previously reported by Stanley and Hall (1973) and support the notion that dyslexics have longer visual persistence than controls.

CHILD DEVELOPMENT, 1973, 44, 841-844. 2 measures of visual information processing were compared for dyslexic and control samples of children. With the first measure 2 parts of a stimulus were exposed sequentially for 20 msec each at increasing interstimulus intervals (ISIs). Both separation and identification thresholds were longer for dyslexics than normals. With the second measure letters presented for 20 msec were masked by dots, the interstimulus interval between the letter and masker being incremented over trials. Dyslexics required longer ISIs than controls for correct identification of the letter. This difference was greater when the letters were visually confusable. Both experiments provide evidence that significant differences exist between dyslexics and normals at early stages of visual information processing.

Our previous attempt at looking at non‐reading eye‐movements in developmental dyslexics (Stanley, 1978) produced essentially the same results as another research group (Adler‐Grinberg & Stark, 1978), despite considerable differences in procedure and equipment. With respect to Pavlidis' (1981 a) work, we were somewhat at a disadvantage, in so far as his original paper does not provide the rationale now given (Pavlidis, 1983) for a number of procedural moves which might otherwise be considered arbitrary. While appreciating the value of having his position clarified for us in a way not provided by his previous publication, we would like to comment on a number of points he has made about our paper (Stanley et al., 1983).

In the present study, 48 university students judged whether centrally-fixated, straight lines appeared longer or shorter than rotating or stationary arcs seen peripherally, 20 degrees away from fixation. Arcs and comparison lines were painted white on black surrounds or black on white. Apart from using reflected light, viewing conditions were similar to Ansbacher's and an apparent contraction effect was obtained with light, rotating arcs. Reversing the luminance relations of arc and surround gave a reversed effect: dark arcs tended to appear longer when rotating than when stationary.

Apparent contraction of the arc occurred as a function of speed, there being greater contraction in the presence of a superimposed random pattern of I cm. light squares (visual noise) than in its absence. The results of Experiment II indicated that there was no significant difference in length due to visual noise when the arcs were stationary. In Experiment III subjects made estimates of the speed of rotation of the arc and it was found that visual noise did not significantly affect the apparent arc-speed.

This paper will propose seven principles for change management. They are drawn from the author's experience in observing and having leadership responsibility for change in a number of education jurisdictions.

Trait anxiety correlated with both pain tolerance and threshold, but state anxiety did not.

The two groups did not differ on mean raw scores or time taken on the drawing but differed in number of spelling errors and writing time. The ratios of spelling/number of words written and grammatical errors/number of words written differed for the groups. The former measure was reliable at 8-mo. retest for dyslexics and the latter was reliable at 8 mo. for controls. Correlations between measures showed a different pattern for the dyslexics and controls.

The same points had occurred to us and in order to find out what supervisors and examiners expected we decided to ask a sample of academics. Our requests were made before our paper was due to appear in the May 1974 issue so that respondents would not be biased by that report. We predicted that, contrary to the myth, the majority of academics would not expect honours theses to result from students work-
