The Psychiatric Scene: A Resident's View, Wesley B. Carter

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Residents desire efficiency in their profession and agree with suggested certification by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. They are troubled, however, that often the knowledge required by the American Board is not supplied in their residency programs. Perhaps the APA can intercede and provide more continuity.

"Teddy" (The Task Force For Emotionally Disturbed And Potentially Delinquent Youth), Susan G. Malbon

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The Council on Correction of the National Council of Social Workers invited other Virginia organizations dealing with children to attend a meeting in December, 1969, to form a Task Force for Emotionally Disturbed and Potentially Delinquent Youth. Someone came up with the inspired acronym of TEDDY to avoid the long title while reminding people that this task force spoke for a group of children who need help.

Chemical Changes In Amniotic Fluid, Ajay S. Bhatnagar

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

An ever present dilemma in modern obstetrical management is the proper timing of delivery of the fetus in situations where complications either threaten its own life in utero or significantly affect maternal morbidity. In such situations the obstetrician is confronted with the equivocal choice between premature delivery and the high risk to the fetus of continued intrauterine existence. In addition, he is placed in a unique position where any sort of direct communication with one of his "patients," namely the fetus, is nearly impossible. In the past, the delivery of obstetrical care to the fetus and the monitoring of its …

The Chronically Ill Child: A Challenge To Family Adaptation, Ake Mattsson

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In conclusion, by studying the emotional stress and the coping behavior of children with chronic physical illness, we can learn considerably about how these patients and their families learned to "play a poor hand well." In this regard it is noteworthy how often adolescent patients relate their good adjustment and positive outlook on life, despite their handicap, to their parents' early and consistent attempts to raise them with realistic and minimal restrictions. As one 16-year-old boy put it, as he was lying in bed receiving plasma infusion during a hemophilic bleeding episode, "Don't worry about the kids, Doc, but help …

Accounting Systems And Patien Receivables: Complementary Management Areas, Richard J. Vargo

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The first segment of my discussion will deal with medical accounting systems and my evaluations of those systems. The second part of the paper will deal with the topic of improving the cash flow from patient receivables. Cash flow is in many ways dependent upon the effectiveness of a doctor’s accounting system, and if the system works well and produces timely and accurate information, the cash from patient receivable will flow more efficiently.

Cryopreserved Corneal Tissue: A Practical Guide To Its Use, Walter Mayer

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

What we will explain in detail is the technique we have developed to actually use cryopreserved tissue in the operating room. Anyone who has followed the development of this type of transplant material has heard and read how important it is to follow exactly certain steps, but nowhere in the literature is there a guide as to how, in practice, the different steps are to be carried out. We know of no other procedure in ophthalmology where absolute adherence to the strictest set of guidelines is absolutely necessary.

An Optical Approach To Aid Cerebral Hemiplegics, Thomas W. Nooney Jr.

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Communication is the process by which information is received, interpreted, and retained; however, communication often breaks down as a result of brain injury. It has been estimated that there are 400,000 adults in the United States with some degree of communication loss from stroke, and each year another 20,000 people become similarly afflicted. The ability to transmit and/or receive information depends on visual and auditory comprehension and retention, reading comprehension, visual motor facility, and speech. These areas are so interrelated that a collapse in one often causes a breakdown in a closely connected ability.

Experimentally Induced Coloboma In The Golden Hamster: A Preliminary Report, Ragnit Geeraets

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The present study represents the second part of a more comprehensive investigation of the morphogenesis of the normal and abnormal embryonic fissure. The first part, an electron microscopic study of the normal closure, has already been completed. The second part consists of the attempt to induce colobomata by means of hypo- and hyper-vitaminosis A. If both attempts are successful, the resulting colobomata will then be compared with one another as well as with the sequence of events in the normal closure. It is hoped that this investigation will permit some insight into the cellular phenomena that lead to a congenital …

Anesthesia, 1972, C. Ronald Stephen

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Implied in a title such as this one is an obligation to determine the present "state of the art," or science, if you will, and to elucidate, in a manner of speaking, where we are, why we are, and in which direction we may be going. To perform such a function in perspective, we must return to the past. Then one wonders, how far into the past? How much of the past is really relevant to today? Our reflection will go back thirty years to 1942, in Montreal, Canada, to the sphere of McGill University.

The Rhetoric Of Garner Ted Armstrong, Stephen George Dick

Dissertations and Theses

Garner Ted Armstrong is fast becoming a well known religious and political commentator. The purpose of this thesis was to describe and discuss the techniques and characteristics of Mr. Armstrong's rhetoric. The question to be answered was "What are the characteristics of a successful religious broadcaster?" The method used-in the selection of the speeches to be used in this study consisted of selection a number of speeches (56), then breaking them down into theme categories. After analysis, there were eleven categories. One speech was selected from each category, and these eleven speeches were the speeches that were used in the …

Psychological Abnormalities Of Sexual Identification, James L. Mathis

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The normal process of development of sexual identification slides almost unnoticed through well-defined, but overlapping stages to a definite end point. That end point is an individual who senses that his core gender, male or female, is consistent with the body morphology, the external genitalia, the chromosomal configuration, and the hormonal balance. Also, there must be the development of personality traits, masculine or feminine, consistent with the sense of core gender. Finally, although somewhat outside the scope of our present discussion, there must be the establishment of a role or life style in adulthood in accordance with the first two …

A Brighter Future: They Can Succeed, Ann H. Stewart, Shelby Dodd, Marsha Musser, Wilbur Reese

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Ever since the development of the Intelligence Quotient as measured in different ways, great controversy has raged about genetic causation for low IQ's. It is frequently stated that an Intelligence Quotient is only determinant of how the individual is operating at the time it is taken, but I find it almost impossible for this statement to be accepted by teachers and school systems. Mental retardation is said to make up 3% of our total population, 75% of which is the so called "familial retardation" with no demonstrable organic pathology. The children so labelled and referred to Special Education Classes are …

The Behavioral Sciences And Juvenile Justice, Kermit V. Rooke

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

I would like particularly to stress the role of the behavioral scientist in the effective operation of the Juvenile Court. Perhaps you are not entirely familiar with the modern Juvenile Court operation. Perhaps you regard it as a simple one-man operation in which the judge has only to look into his law books and there find the answers to all the problems which come his way. This, I assure you, is not the picture. Every day, every hour, the judge is confronted by problems which defy solution. The Court over which I preside has a physical plant which covers eleven …

The Relationship Between Functional Articulation Disorders And Self-Monitoring Auditory Discrimination, Geraldine Hahn Allison

All Master's Theses

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between articulation disorders and self-monitoring auditory discrimination. In developing this study, 160 children, 80 males and 80 females, from kindergarten through fourth grades, were selected as subjects. They were divided into normal and defective speaking groups based on the results of a speech screening test. An Articulation and Self-Monitoring Test was administered to these children. The results showed their total number of articulation and self-monitoring errors. These error scores were statistically analyzed with other pertinent characteristics of the subjects relative to the study. The tools of analyses were: (1) an …

A Case Study Of The Relationship Between Role-Taking Skills And Intellectual Development, Linda Suzanne Green

All Master's Theses

A series of thirteen role-taking and cognitive development tasks, taken from research done on Piaget's developmental theories, were presented to ascertain the relationship between refined role-taking skills and the level of intellectual development demonstrated by a child in Piaget's pre-operational phase (two to seven years).

The results indicated that a child in this age range is not able to remove himself from his egocentric position and utilize the concepts of decentering and reversibility in constructing a meaningful message. This would indicate a lack of role-taking skill refinement.

It was concluded that the use of this type of task series would …
