Understanding The Accident Process: Crisis Intervention For The Industrially Injured, Karen W. Sharpe
Understanding The Accident Process: Crisis Intervention For The Industrially Injured, Karen W. Sharpe
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Understanding the concept of the accident process plays a significant role in determining the course of treatment for the industrially injured. The accident process suggests that underlying psycho-social factors may result in the occurrence and/or maintenance of a state of disability. This disabled state provides greater needs satisfaction for the individual than his habitual behavioral repertoire. the development of the accident process suggests a state of crisis, either as a result of chronic difficulty or an acute reaction to sudden onset of illness or injury. Total rehabilitation of the individual is facilitated by a crisis intervention approach.
Locus Of Control In Voluntary And Involuntary Psychiatric Patients, Christopher B. Karegeannes
Locus Of Control In Voluntary And Involuntary Psychiatric Patients, Christopher B. Karegeannes
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
Psychiatric inpatients, consisting of 32 males and 33 females between the ages of 15 and 58 completed Rotter's (1966) Internal-External Locus of Control (I-E) Scale. The scale was administered individually to the patients at both admission and discharge, at the Crisis Stabilization Unit (CSU) in Orlando, Florida. Analysis of variance was used to determine whether there were significant differences due to commitment status (voluntary and involuntary), diagnosis (thought and affective and other disorders), and change scores (admission versus discharge). The hypothesis that involuntary patients would produce significantly higher scores was not confirmed. Further, no significant difference was found due to …

The Adult Client's Conception Of Confidentiality In The Therapeutic Relationship, Philip O. Toal
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
The adult client's conception of confidentiality in the therapeutic relationship and the valuing of this confidentiality was examined and defined in this paper. The importance of confidentiality and its effect on the therapeutic process was explored. Many professionals in the field of mental health believe that confidentiality is a critical factor in the successful outcome of therapy (Hayt, 1977; Lowenthal, 1968; Reynolds, 1976; Tancredi & Slady, 1975).

The variables that may affect the client's conception of, attitudes toward, …
Work And Leisure Attitudes Among Health Services Personnel, Robert C. Frink
Work And Leisure Attitudes Among Health Services Personnel, Robert C. Frink
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
This study examines the relationship between work and leisure satisfaction using Shepard's Status Recognition Model. The sample was made up of two groups of health services personnel each of which contained three work levels or groups: a support group, a clinical group, and an administrative group. Assuming that status recognition would be different for the low status jobs (support) and high status jobs (clinical and administrative), it was hypothesized that the high status group would display low work related alienation and thus show a positive correlation between work and leisure satisfaction (evidence of a spillover mechanism). The lower status group …

The Influence Of Induced Self-Awareness On Sex-Typed Behavior, Kevin J. Lopyan
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of the experiment was to contrast a person's adherence to private and public standards of conduct under varying situational settings. Prior to the experimental session female undergraduate students filled out a questionnaire that asked about their own attitudes towards exercising. Two types of subjects were brought into the laboratory: those who privately favored exercise but believed that others would not approve of their exercise (henceforth referred to as "positive discrepancy" subjects), and those who privately did not favor exercise, but anticipated approval for it (henceforth referred to as "negative discrepancy" subjects). The laboratory setting involved pedaling a stationary …
