SummaryA wide ranging coverage is given of the issues involved in the interaction between women and sport. The pressures on girls and women to take part in or to refrain from various sports are considered. The question of the leisure time available to women in various situations, and the pressures on that leisure time, are discussed, and space is also given to the opportunities available at school level, the Equal Opportunities Commission's involvement in sport and the problems of sportswomen at the highest level.

Analyzed are the social & historical causes of the Eritrean revolution, with focus on the repressive policies of Italian, British, & most recently, Ethiopian occupiers. The social & revolutionary accomplishments of the Eritrean People's Liberation Front (EPLF) in the areas of land reform, liberation of towns, & politicalization of workers & peasants are described. Also assessed is the impact of the EPLF on education, health, & the liberation of women. The deterrent effect of entrenched feudal interests & of early mistakes on revolutionary progress is hypothesized. D. Dunseath.

Both the sources of funding for crash research and the characteristics of the investigators attracted to it tend to produce parochialism, segmentation, and specialization in the field as a whole. These potentially divisive forces are counteracted only by a shared and largely uncritical loyalty to the status quo-that is, a belief that the privately owned and operated conventional vehicle should continue as the major means of transportation. As a consequence, despite the increasingly favorable climate for crash research, recent findings have contributed little to the reduction of mortality and morbidity. The limitations of what is variously called human engineering, engineering psychology, or human factors are delineated, and a broader analytic framework is suggested.

This paper discusses mediation of the crowding experience in architectural interiors by three environmental variables: setting orientation, room color, and visual complexity of the interior. Subjects' perceptions of space available and thresholds of crowding were assessed by the placement of miniature figures in model rooms and room ratings along several dimensions. Data presented indicated that perceptions of physical space available in the setting and crowding thresholds are effectively mediated by variations in interior design. While the actual amount of space was kept constant, subjects perceived dark rooms as smaller and crowded with fewer figures than corresponding light rooms. High visual complexity was found to interact with setting orientation and room color; nonsocial dark rooms were perceived as smaller than other high complexity interiors. The implications of these results for the design of interior spaces are discussed.
