Family Stress: Using Parent-Infant Synchrony to Mediate Parental Stress
No full textAbstract Family Stress: Using Parent- Infant Synchrony to Mediate Parental Stress By Nicolette Cheatham Master of Arts in Education Educational Psychology There are long-term effects of adverse childhood experiences such as abuse and dysfunction, which carry on into adulthood (Felitti, Anda, Nordenberg, Williamson, Spitz, Edwards, et al., 1998) and can potentially cause adult health risks. Recent literature emphasized the importance of parent-infant synchrony as a mediator for stress within parents and infants (Feldman, 2007). This thesis project analyzes existing pre and pretestdata of a community-based parenting program. The pilot program, C.A.L.M. (Cues & Caring, Attunement & Attachment, Listen & Love, Music & Massage), aimed to provide strategies for parents to help reduce the stress in their lives while becoming more aware and attuned to their infant’s cues. An initial 11 parents completed a written pre-survey questionnaire before participation in a C.A.L.M. session, while 10 parents completed a post-test questionnaire at the final session. Seven participants completed both a pre and post-test and results are reported in this study. Additionally, a focus group was conducted at the final session that provided participant feedback on areas of satisfaction and recommendations for future program development. The implications and limitations of the data will be presented in Chapter Five.Includes bibliographical references (pages 57-58)California State University, Northridge.

"It's the music": Kent Finlay's Cheatham Street Warehouse in San Marcos, Texas
No full textAs songwriters step inside Kent Finlay’s Cheatham Street Warehouse every Wednesday night in San Marcos, Texas, perhaps the most frequently asked question of the bartender and others gathered inside is,"Is the list out yet?" Of course, the "list," which the bartender does not put out until eight o’clock (bar time), is a sign-up sheet for songwriters who hope to perform that night. Hopefuls eagerly check out the Budweiser Light clock behind the bar in anticipation, aware that their position on the sign-up sheet might determine whether they perform two songs or only one, depending on the number of names on the list.Musi

Coordination of Laws in a National Federal State: An Analysis of the Writings of Elliott Evans Cheatham
No full textThis Article is prepared at the request of the Editorial Board of the Vanderbilt Law Review in commemoration. It, however, is not designed as a tribute to Cheatham--the man and the teacher. Tributes of that kind were collected and published four years before his death in the December 1968 issue of the Review. In this essay, I have attempted to analyze Elliott Cheatham\u27s scholarly contributions in the field of conflict of laws, one of his two major areas of legal research. When I began its preparation, it was with a deep feeling of personal involvement since Elliott was responsible for much of my own early development and growth of understanding in conflict of laws. As the work progressed, however, it became apparent that it was in part unfair to assess the contributions of a single man in a rapidly developing field in which the interactions of many have served as mutual stimuli and in which the end product of each is the result of constant influence by numerous others.Thus, this Article does not attempt to trace and identify all of those sources that influenced Elliott Cheatham in the conclusions he reached,nor will it attempt a comprehensive cataloging of all of the cases, articles, and books that his work either directly or indirectly influenced.Rather, this essay resembles an extended book review. Unlike the re-viewer of a book who deals with his subject usually within one year of its publication, this reviewer has had the opportunity to assess the life\u27s work of an individual in a single area of his expertise. Consequently, the evaluations and commentary can include an assessment of the impact of Cheatham\u27s various works over a period of three decades.The advantages of hindsight are not slight. This Article is divided into two principal sections. The first deals with Elliott Cheatham\u27s work in federal-state conflict of laws problems. It considers Cheatham\u27s basic theories, his commentary on the development of the Erie Doctrine, his work in international conflicts, his explanation of the sources and development of the body of federal common law, and his search for the appropriate measure of federal control over state choice of law. The second segment considers his work in more traditional interstate choice of law. It discusses his search for the fundamental sources that he believed should guide the formulation of inter-state and international choice-of-law rules and includes a comparison of Cheatham\u27s work with the work of other scholars whose theories were closely related to his. To the extent that this Article provides some useful insight into the life\u27s work of a fine scholar and a close friend and colleague, it will not only serve its commemorative function, but perhaps will discharge in small part the large intellectual debt that its author owes to the man who is its subject
