Family Support, Physical Impairment, And Adherence In Hemodialysis: An Investigation Of Main And Buffering Effects, Alan Christensen, Timothy Smith, Charles Turner, John Holman Jr., Martin Gregory, Martina Rich Jul 1992

Family Support, Physical Impairment, And Adherence In Hemodialysis: An Investigation Of Main And Buffering Effects, Alan Christensen, Timothy Smith, Charles Turner, John Holman Jr., Martin Gregory, Martina Rich

Alan J. Christensen

Patient noncompliance is a pervasive problem among end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. Previous studies have implicated social support as an important correlate of adherence behavior in other chronic illness groups, but little research has examined this relationship in a hemodialysis population. The present study examined the main and interactive effects of social support in the family and illness-related physical impairment with regard to patient compliance in a sample of 78 hemodialysis patients. Results indicated that patients holding perceptions of a more supportive family environment exhibited significantly more favorable adherence to fluid-intake restrictions than did patients reporting less family support. Family …

What Does It Mean To Think, Learn, Teach?, Dorothy Bowen, Earle Bowen Dec 1991

What Does It Mean To Think, Learn, Teach?, Dorothy Bowen, Earle Bowen

Dorothy N. Bowen

How is the missionary force for the twenty-first Century to be trained? This is the challenge that emerges from this provocative book as it focuses on the task of effective missionary training. Western missions have tended to place most of their training emphasis on schooling and formal education-- witness the number of Bible schools, Christian colleges and theological seminaries that offer everything from a B.A. to a Ph. D. in missions/missiology. But the training concerns expressed by non-Western leaders from Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean, the South Pacific, and the Middle East offer an alternative. While not dismissing the …


Film At Eleven: Recent Developments In The Commodification Of Crime, Kenneth Tunnell Dec 1991

Film At Eleven: Recent Developments In The Commodification Of Crime, Kenneth Tunnell

Kenneth Tunnell

Recent increases in the number of crime-related commodities (e.g., burglar alarms, security systems, private security forces, and crime-related television news programs) are critically examined in relation to mildly fluctuating national crime rates. Increasing sales of crime-related and target-hardening products during the time when crime oscillated only slightly are explained as capitalism's ability to create commodities from both social problems and unfounded needs. Using secondary data, I describe these crime trends and the consumption of crime-prevention goods. Although the media apparently contributed to increasing concerns about victimization while crime was fairly stable, the process of commodity exchange for crime goods is …


Political Pressures And Influences On Police Executives: A Descriptive Analysis., Kenneth Tunnell, Larry Gaines Dec 1991

Political Pressures And Influences On Police Executives: A Descriptive Analysis., Kenneth Tunnell, Larry Gaines

Kenneth Tunnell

A study seeks to determine the degree, location and impact of political interference or pressure exerted on police chief executives by public and private officials. Questionnaire data were gathered from 115 Kentucky police chiefs in 1989. Respondents reported having to cope with varying levels of political pressure and interference, some legitimate and some illegitimate. Pressure was exerted in the following areas: (1) hiring officers; (2) promoting or demoting officers; (3) arresting offenders or enforcing specific laws; (4) making unnecessary changes in personnel assignments, such as transfers to and from specialized units; and (5) providing special or unusual services to individuals …

99 Years Is Almost For Life: Punishment For Violent Crime In Bluegrass Music, Kenneth Tunnell Dec 1991

99 Years Is Almost For Life: Punishment For Violent Crime In Bluegrass Music, Kenneth Tunnell

Kenneth Tunnell

The roots of Southern American music are located in the music of the eighteenth-century English, Irish and lowland Scots who migrated to North America. As they settled in the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Cumberland Gap of Appalachia, they brought their songs that had been a part of their oral histories and cultures for at least two centuries. The commonly shared ways of life and social class among Appalachian mountain-dwellers not only inform about the early formative stages of bluegrass music but its growing popularity. As bluegrass music was removed from its insular setting and exposed to a wide variety …

Cardiovascular Reactivity And Interpersonal Relations: Psychosomatic Processes In Social Context, T. Smith, Alan Christensen Dec 1991

Cardiovascular Reactivity And Interpersonal Relations: Psychosomatic Processes In Social Context, T. Smith, Alan Christensen

Alan J. Christensen

Recent epidemiological research has identified a variety of interpersonal risk factors as possibly contributing to the development of cardiovascular disease, including reduced social support and increased conflict. Related psychosomatic models identify heightened cardiovascular reactivity as a pathophysiological mechanism linking these psychosocial risk factors and subsequent illness. However, cardiovascular reactivity has largely been studied in nonsocial settings, raising concerns about the relevance of this mechanism to the psychosocial risk factors identified in epidemiological research
