ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The challenge encountered In the preparation of this thesis has been intellectually satisfying and will hopefully open doors for further research in this area. Without the encouragement and advice of my Committee Chairman, Dr. Robert Dack Smith, its completion would not have been possible. My thanks is also extended to the other mem bers of my committee, Dr. Norman Greenberg and Professor Arthur Helweg. In addition, I would like to thank the entire staff of the Kalamazoo Consultation Center for their encouragement and assistance, with special thanks to Grace Roth, Lynn White and Nancy Ray.
