We cannot escape the fact that many people who have had excellent developmental opportunity are caught, perhaps chiefly because of the culture, in circumstances in which there are exceedingly restricted opportunities for further growth. " -Harry Stack Sullivan, 1953 F or more than 70 years, psychiatrists and social psychologists have grappled with the interplay between personality and the environment; social contexts may enrich or hinder human development, while at the same time individuals' personal dispositions affect how they perceive opportunities, cultivate relationships, and navigate institutional environments. More recently, life-course scholars have contributed to this effort through longterm studies that span childhood, adolescence, young adulthood, midlife, and old age. One of the central aims of the life-course perspective is to examine the significance of personality traits and human agency within the context of historically dynamic structural constraints and opportunities (Clausen 1991;Elder 1994;Hogan and Astone 1986). As summarized by Glen Elder and his colleagues, "Children, adolescents, and adults are not passively acted
The Baie Verte Peninsula is located in the northern Appalachians of Newfoundland. It is underlain by the ancestral Laurentian continental margin (Humber zone), the accreted (Taconic Orogeny) Cambrian Baie Verte Oceanic Tract and its Ordovician ophiolite
volcano-sedimentary cover. These three marine successions were intruded by late Ordovician to Silurian felsic plutons and associated subaerial volcanic cover emplaced prior to, and during the Salinic Orogeny. There is a long history of mineral exploration and mining on the Baie Verte Peninsula, with
the most important commodities being gold, copper and asbestos. To assist in the understanding and exploration of this geologically diverse region, the Baie Verte digital geoscience atlas, a companion output to three previously released Canadian Geoscience Maps, contains GIS datasets including new
and compiled bedrock geology (with 1:50,000 pdf maps). These are combined with compiled structural geology, geochronology (U/Pb and 40Ar/39Ar), lithogeochemistry, metallogeny (mines and drilled prospects), reprocessed aeromagnetic survey data (government and industry survey data), a digital
elevation model, and base-map data (topography, hydrographic etc.). These GIS data are compatible with a number of GIS platforms, and have also been organized into a project suitable for viewing via ESRI ArcReader(TM) (links provided).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
