Data found in speeches, letters, newspaper accounts, political cartoons, and other documentary sources reveal that Lincoln perceived himself as being tall, lean, strong, physically fit, and skilled, but not handsome. Both he and his associates assign symbolic meaning to his physical structure and prowess to communicate pertinent political messages to the electorate.","PeriodicalId":430949,"journal":{"name":"Research Quarterly.

Therefore, it is useful to have an exact estimate of the errors caused by this misalignment. These errors can be calculated easily during the film analysis using same simple trigonometrical formulas. In addition, a practical procedure is presented to correct for this error.","PeriodicalId":430949,"journal":{"name":"Research Quarterly.

After performing 3 sets of 10 leg press repetitions maximum, 3 days/wk for 8 wks, on isokinetic speed controlled machines, the groups were compared on a strength measure and on vertical jump performance. According to the group to which they were assigned (control, fast speed, or slow speed) subjects from all schools were combined according to treatment effect for comparison purposes on the vertical jump. For the strength measure, the combined slow or fast speed subject groupings formed an experimental treatment group which was compared to a combined control group. A 2-way ANOVA with repeated measures on 1 factor was applied to data obtained on the jump and on each of the strength measures.

Subjects were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 groups: a massed practice group, a distributed practice group, and a control group. Each subject in the massed group (N=10) practiced 50 consecutive throws each Wednesday during the 6 wk period for a total of 300 practice throws. Each subject in the distributed group (N=10) practiced 10 consecutive throws each day, Monday through Friday, of each week during the 6 wk practice period for an identical total of 300 practice throws. Members of the control group (N=9) did not practice during the 6 wk experimental session, however, they did participate in each testing session. The ANOVA employed on the posttest score revealed that the amount of learning in the velocity task measured as initial velocity, differed significantly within the 3 groups.
