Our research aims to focus on Barbers Cello Sonata, Op. 6, and the history behind it, including the influential people who supported the young composer in his rise to early success.
Barbers first and only cello sonata, written at age 22, is a significant composition in Barbers life and career because it was conceived at a turning point in the composers personal and professional life. This composition was considered the first American cello sonata, and remained the only one for the next 18 years . Strongly opposed to the modern movement of avant-gardism which was popular in the United States at the time, Samuel Barber, considered to be neo-romantic, was inspired by composers such as Beethoven, Brahms, Debussy and Sibelius, and wanted his works to communicate romanticism, beauty and emotion.
Barbers award-winning Cello Sonata can be seen as a transitional composition in the composers career, revealing elements found in both his early and mature styles.
Additionally, the author provides a more detailed analysis of the Cello Sonata, incorporating structural analysis and descriptive interpretation. Likewise, a descriptive approach to performance will provide suggestions regarding fingering, bowing, phrasing and interpretation of performance instructions. The author desires that the romantic ideals communicated by Barber through the Cello Sonata can, in a sense, be reintroduced to the performer. Doing so increases the awareness of its musical and historic value, both to musicians and scholars, and highlights the Cello Sonata as an early masterwork of Samuel Barber—one of the greatest American composers of the twentieth century.
Included in the appendix is a graphic timeline focusing on the Cello Sonatas significance in Barbers life, specifically the years 1932-1937. The timeline includes noteworthy compositions, influences, honors, early performances and a discography of the Cello Sonata, with names of the performers. The purpose of the timeline is to present a visual summary of the following research.

How COVID-19 Precautionary Measures Affect Mental Health, Irritability, and Burnout: Evaluation of customer Service Employees in British Columbia
No full textDue to COVID-19, the use of masks and other precautionary measures have been strictly implemented in all indoor, public spaces in British Columbia (BC). The largest employment sector in Canada, the service sector, is considerably impacted by the precautionary measures and employs a psychologically vulnerable population. This study considered whether an individuals’ perception of the precautionary measures creates psychological distress and whether this impact is over and above their fear of contracting COVID-19. In BC, customer service employees were recruited to participate in an online survey. The results show that this population is experiencing psychological distress, burnout, and high irritability. Fear of COVID-19 is a significant contributor to these outcomes. The degree to which the participants found precautionary measures to be annoying and their beliefs about the necessity of these measures did not significantly contribute to irritability, poor mental health, or burnout over and above the fear of COVID-19. Instead, interpersonal conflict due to the enforcement of the restrictions was a notable element in the challenges that this population currently faces. Given the degree to which the COVID-19 disease has impacted individuals, both physically and mentally, more research is needed to understand and mitigate the escalating public mental health crisis
Attitudes of Counselor Educators Toward Persons with Disabilities
No full textThe purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of nine variables with attitudes of Counselor Educators toward persons with disabilities. The objective was to identify several potential variables that may influence attitudes. Nine variables were examined to test their relationship with attitude among the participants. An analysis was completed of the significance between each of the factors and attitude as measured by the SADP (Antonak, 1981). The independent variables were: a) age; b) gender; c) ethnicity; d) amount of contact with disabled persons; e) knowledge of disability legislation; f) comfort with type of disability; g) theoretical orientation; h) years of experience as a Counselor Educator; and i) one’s discipline/specialty within Counselor Education. The participants in this study were a convenience sample of Counselor Educators who were members of the Counselor Education and Supervision listserv (CESNET-L). Of the approximate 900 members invited to participate, 6% of the members volunteered to participate (n= 56; 22 (39%) males, 34 (61% ) females). Each participant electronically completed a demographics questionnaire and the Scale of Attitudes toward Disabled Persons (SADP; Antonak, 1981). Overall, two hypotheses were supported by the data collected from this study. It was found that comfort level was correlated with higher scores on the SADP (Antonak, 1981); and, higher levels of knowledge of disability legislation are also associated with higher scores on the SADP. With these exceptions, the data did not support the hypotheses which stated there were significant differences or relationships between the stated variables and attitude toward persons with disabilities among Counselor Educators

Caterpillar phenology predicts differences in timing of mountain chickadee breeding in urban and rural habitats
No full textTo ensure the survival of their offspring, birds need to precisely time their reproduction: when offspring have the highest demand for food, food resources should be most abundant. In temperate environments, caterpillars are often a key food source for nestlings, so many insectivorous bird species time their reproduction to correspond to the peak abundance of caterpillars in their habitat. Mountain chickadees (Poecile gambeli) are small songbirds that naturally inhabit coniferous forests, but are also found in urban areas. Reproductive timing of these birds may be altered by urbanization, as mountain chickadees in the city have been shown to breed earlier than those in natural habitat. This study aimed to determine if caterpillar abundance drives reproductive timing of mountain chickadees and if urbanization alters the timing of caterpillar abundance. Birds in both urban and rural habitats were monitored throughout the breeding season. Caterpillar abundance was estimated at each nest location by collecting samples of caterpillar excrement (frass).We found that in both urban and rural habitat, frass mass changed throughout the breeding season, but the date of maximum frass mass occurred about one week earlier in urban habitat. However, in both habitats maximum frass mass occurred when offspring were approximately 11 days old. Our results suggest that mountain chickadees time their reproduction to correspond to caterpillar abundance, and birds in urban environments may be reproducing earlier to correspond with earlier peak caterpillar abundance in the city.Peer reviewedarticlespublishedPoecile gambeliFrassUrbanizationReproductive timingCaterpillarMountain chickade

Reproductive cycle, spawning and early growth of soft shell clams (Mya arenaria) on Prince Edward Island
No full textReproductive evaluation of male and female soft shell clams ( Mya arenaria) was investigated using histologic examination of gonads from samples which were collected during spring, summer, and autumn months in the Malpeque Bay and Pinette River areas of Prince Edward Island (PEI) between 1997 and 1999. Clams were classified into 1 of 5 stages, inactive, active, mature, partially spent or completely spent. The data indicated that spawning commences mainly in the month of June and the duration of spawning varies between sites and years.Triggers of spawning were examined including water temperature and month of year.Several condition indices were tested to determine their accuracy in predicting spawning events. Steamed meat yield, a gravimetric index and a shell condition index were compared to results of histological analysis.Larval monitoring was conducted using the plankton pump and plankton net methods to monitor the development of clam larvae in the water and to verify the date of clam spawning.
