Effect Of Family Environment And Donor Source On Patient Equality Of Life Following Renal Transplantation, Alan Christensen, Katherine Raichle, Shawna Ehlers, Andrew Bertolatus Aug 2002

Effect Of Family Environment And Donor Source On Patient Equality Of Life Following Renal Transplantation, Alan Christensen, Katherine Raichle, Shawna Ehlers, Andrew Bertolatus

Alan J. Christensen

The authors examined the degree to which the supportiveness of a patient's family environment predicts change in quality of life following renal transplantation. The sample consisted of 95 patients receiving renal grafts from either a living donor or a cadaveric donor. Patients were initially assessed prior to transplantation with follow-up assessment occurring an average of 5.5 months after transplantation. Among patients receiving a living-donor kidney, those reporting a more supportive family environment exhibited reduced depression, improved mobility, and improved social functioning. However, those living-donor recipients reporting less family support exhibited increased depression and diminished mobility and social functioning after transplantation. …

The Length Of The Retention Interval, Forgetting, And Subjective Similarity, Donald L. King, Farrasha L. Jones, Ronald C. Pearlman, Abraham Tishman, Cassandra A. Felix Jul 2002

The Length Of The Retention Interval, Forgetting, And Subjective Similarity, Donald L. King, Farrasha L. Jones, Ronald C. Pearlman, Abraham Tishman, Cassandra A. Felix

Ronald Pearlman

A long retention interval tends to result in the poor retention known as forgetting. A high subjective similarity between stimuli frequently produces their poor retention. Thus, a long retention interval may increase the subjective similarity between stimuli (the RIISS hypothesis), and this increase may produce forgetting. To examine this hypothesis, college students made speeded same-different discriminations between two lines or tones of different lengths or frequencies that were 400 ms or 3,300 ms apart, and they rated the similarity of these stimuli. The long interval produced poorer overall performance as expected, but also produced poorer performance on different than same …

Patient Personality And Mortality: A 4-Year Prospective Examination Of Chronic Renal Insufficiency, Alan Christensen, Shawna Ehlers, John Wiebe, Patricia Moran, Katherine Raichle, Karin Ferneyhough, William Lawton

Alan J. Christensen

The present study examined the role of personality as a predictor of mortality among patients with chronic renal insufficiency. A prospective evaluation of the influence of personality on patient survival was conducted over an average 49-month period. Cox regression was used to evaluate the effects of 5 dimensions of personality in a sample of 174 patients (100 male and 74 female). At follow-up, 49 patients had died. Significant demographic and clinical predictors of survival included age, diabetic status, and hemoglobin level. After these predictors were controlled for, 2 personality traits, conscientiousness and neuroticism, predicted patient mortality. Patients with high neuroticism …


Teaching At The Desk: Toward A Reference Pedagogy, James Elmborg Jun 2002

Teaching At The Desk: Toward A Reference Pedagogy, James Elmborg

James K. Elmborg

This article proposes that we use constructivist learning theory—primarily composition theory—to develop a pedagogy for the reference desk. This approach implies that reference is a form of teaching, and that to maximize their educational effectiveness, academic librarians need to approach reference transactions as academic conferences where teaching and learning take place.
