The problem under investigation in this study is how federalism is portrayed in senior high American history textbooks. Federalism has been frequently expressed or redefined in history when state and federal interests are in conflict. Most often the conflict results from domestic disorders. How domestic disorders are portrayed in American history textbooks provides insight into how teachers and students perceived the development of our national heritage.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The problem under investigation in this study is how federalism is portrayed in senior high American history textbooks. Federalism has been frequently expressed or redefined in history when state and federal interests are in conflict. Most often the conflict results from domestic disorders. How domestic disorders are portrayed in American history textbooks provides insight into how teachers and students perceived the development of our national heritage.
520 $a Three major questions guided this study. (1) How well do senior high school American history textbooks portray federalism through description of domestic disorders? (2) When domestic disorders are included in these textbooks, how accurately are they presented? (3) When domestic disorders are included, how much emphasis is given to each major event where the domestic disorder requires federal intervention.
520 $a Over the last two hundred years, there have been numerous occurrences of domestic disorders. Measures have been taken by the executive, by Congress, and by the courts to suppress these disorders. It was the purpose of this study to see how well senior high school U.S. history textbooks describe the process of federal intervention in domestic disorders. Did the texts deal clearly with the motives, the causes, the issues, and the processes involved in the federal intervention? A series of subquestions guides analysis of each event covered in the textbooks. (1) Did the author explain the causes of the disorder which precipitated the need for the federal intervention? (2) Did the author explain the issues used to legitimize federal intervention? (3) Did the author explain the delegation of power between the federal and state authorities in determining the need for federal intervention? (4) Did the author describe conflicts between the president and state authorities regarding the federal intervention? (5) Did the author describe the adjudication of the incident?
520 $a Content analysis was the primary methodology used to complete this task. The coding unit for the content analysis was the passage describing each of the historical events selected for analysis. The rater recorded the frequency of the coverage for each disorder on a chart. Also included was a complete recording of the passages to each event in the textbook.
