In this study, corporal punishment refers to the administration of physical pain to children by teachers with the purpose of disciplining them. It is a phenomenon that occurs in South African primary schooling despite its legal abolition two decades ago. Anecdotal evidence suggests that teachers, particularly those who have been culturally exposed to corporal punishment and other forms of violence, believe that corporal punishment is still an effective mode of disciplining children.

This study investigates innovative sound sequences in Japanese. A relatively large number of phonological changes have occurred in the short period of time since WWII, mainly due to an influx of loanwords from English. However, innovative sound sequences have not been accepted in Japanese uniformly. This fact raises two questions. Why are some innovative sound sequences fully accepted in Japanese while others are still foreignisms? Why are certain sound sequences acceptable in one situation, but not so in others?Previous studies on innovative sound sequences in modern standard Japanese have tr

Humans have used the land within the area currently defined as Dade County, Florida since around 11,000 B.P., but did not significantly alter the local environment until less than one hundred years ago.

This study explains how land use evolved from earlier sustainable systems for satisfying human needs into the current menacing patterns.

Abstract:
The Historia der Passion und Leidens unsers einigen Erlösers und Seligmachers Jesu Christi (1593) by Leonhard Lechner (c. 1553-1606) is frequently cited as an important work in the development of the Passion idiom. Given the work's notoriety, it is therefore odd that little substantive analysis of the piece exists. Aside from some scholars' cursory comments about the piece, only James Morgan Sides's dissertation has discussed the work at length. Sides's findings give a somewhat limited picture of Lechner's Passion because he primarily focuses on technical aspects of Lechner's musical language.
