She points out that he distinguished between "souls without bodies" and the other figures of the unconscious mind. Jung's explorations are akin to encounters with the afterlife as described by Homer and Virgil in classical literature. They are also relevant to psychical research and parapsychology.New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

Dissertatio inauguralis of Serbian poet Laza Kostić: 'De legibus serbicis Stephani Uros Dusan'
No full textOn the basis of the archival material he recently discovered, the author provides the answer to the question he asked in his recently published paper: 'Defense of doctorate by Serbian poet Laza Kostić in Pest in 1866: Dissertatio or Theses?' By analyzing the previously unknown contents of Kostić's doctoral diploma and original records from his doctoral examinations at the Royal University in Pest (1864-1866), the author concludes that Laza Kostić was awarded the title of 'Doctor of General Law', both civil and canonical (doctor universi iuris, utriusque iuris), on the basis of defending the work of a smaller volume 'Theses e(x) scientiis juridicis et politicis', but also by the presentation of dissertatio inauguralis called 'De legibus serbicis Stephani Uros Dusan'. The author believes that this information significantly complements our knowledge of the study of Dušan's legislation in the mid-nineteenth century and enables us to better understand the overall extent of Serbian cultural elite in Hungary at that time

No full textMartial satisfication among pre-marital cohabiting couples and non pre-marital cohabiting couples, 2007
No full textThis study examined whether a difference in marital satisfaction existed among pre-marital cohabitating couples and non pre-marital cohabitating couples. Twenty of the couples had cohabitated and twenty had never cohabitated prior to their marriage. The forty couples were from the Atlanta metropolitan and LaGrange, Georgia areas and were selected for the study utilizing a non probability/purposive snowball sampling technique. The couples were referred by previous participants and were screened in order to ensure that all eligibility requirements were met. The couples' ages ranged from 20-45 years and all couples were involved in their first marriage. The Marital Satisfaction Inventory Revised (MSI-R) was administered to all forty couples in order to ascertain differences in marital satisfaction and to determine an interaction effect of gender and cohabitation status. The MSI-R is a 150 question, true-false inventory which measures marital satisfaction by testing nine marital scales and two validity scales. The findings of the study indicated that there were significant differences in marital satisfaction among premarital cohabitating and non pre-marital cohabitating husbands and wives. The significance between the two groups were Aggression, Family History of Distress, Time Together, Role Orientation, and Disagreement about Finances
The Adolescent's Voice: How Theatre Participation Impacts High Schoolers and College Students
No full textabstract: This dissertation is a qualitative study based on the experiences of five high schoolers and five college-aged students who grew up in Erie, Pennsylvania, and participated in theatrical productions within their schools, churches, the Erie Playhouse Youtheatre, and other community theatres. The author begins with an introduction of the theatrical scene in Erie and explains the options available to these youth during the times they performed, so the reader will have a better understanding of the background of these young people. The author then explores the current literature dealing with youth participants in a youth theatre setting. In his research, he notes that there were few scholarly books or articles that directly dealt with youth who participate in youth theatre. Most of the books dealt with youth who are part of theatrical programs in school settings, and few researchers utilized the youth's voice as part of the process. The author interviewed ten participants about their theatrical experiences asking them about aspects such as: positive and negative experiences, why they performed, and what they learned from doing theatre. After transcribing the interviews, the author analyzed the participants' responses for values, attitudes, and beliefs about theatre. From this analysis, the author found six themes emerged focusing on: fun, friendship, family, personal growth, commitment to productions, and negative experiences in the theatrical process. Throughout the document, the author utilized the youths' voices and kept their words and thoughts as the basis for all findings constructed and discussed.Dissertation/ThesisPh.D. Theatre 201
On some measures of non-compactness associated to Banach operator ideals
No full textWe study two variants of measures of non-compactness of operators associated to a Banach operator ideal in the sense of Pietsch. These measures are motivated by the notions of surjective-ideal-compactness and injective-ideal-compactness, defined respectively by Carl and Stephani and by Stephani. Interpolation results on these measures in the cases of Banach couples generated by a single Banach space are given. As an application, we obtain interpolation theorems on p-compact operators and quasi p-nuclear operators.The first named author was supported by the Ministerio de Economía, Industria y Competitividad and FEDER under project MTM2017-84058-P.
