Job Termination Study, Violet G. Miller

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

This job termination study was done to find out the number of terminations and the reasons given for these terminations in a selected hospital. It was also done to determine the factors that were responsible for the decision of the employee to terminate. Both job related and non job related factors were studied. By studying these reasons and factors, nursing service administration may come to a better understanding of those areas within the working unit and relationships that need to have further study.

The Reaction Of Hospitalized Children To Food, Lois Masat Magnussen

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Hospital personnel are becoming more aware of the fact that hospitalization is traumatic to the emotional life of the young child. Since eating habits and emotions are so closely allied, it is probable that the young child's eating pattern will be affected during hospitalization. The purpose of this study was to determine the reaction of children between the ages of one through four to food during the first three days of hospitalization at the White Memorial Hospital. The method chosen to obtain this information was the descriptive survey. The tools used were a checklist for the researcher to record her …

Correlation Of The Maternal Interest And Attitude Toward Breast Feeding Of Senior Students In A Selected School Of Nursing, Bonnie Boyts Wilkens

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

A descriptive survey study was carried out at a selected baccalaureate school of nursing in an effort to find out if the maternal interest of senior students of nursing would affect their attitudes toward breast feeding. It was hypothesized that a student who scored high on maternal interest would have a positive attitude toward breast feeding and conversely a student who scored low on the maternal interest scale would have a negative attitude toward breast feeding. Maternal interest was measured by the use of twelve questions adapted from a questionnaire formulated by D. M. Levy, a prominent psychiatrist. Attitudes towards …

Extended Report Of The Impact Of Fantasy On A Treatment Program, Richard H. Dana

Regional Research Institute for Human Services

It is axiomatic in milieu therapy that the man on top is responsible for success or failure of the program. However, little research attention has been given to the impact of a superintendent upon an institution. One reason may be that only rarely is an institution's stewardship uncomplicated by a past history. This case report is of the first-year operation of a correctional institution for adolescent delinquent girls. The superintendent literally created policy and program and trained staff in an attempt to satisfy goals of custody and rehabilitation. In this relatively unique enterprise the values, dynamics and motives of the …

Extended Report Of Construct Validation Of The Barron Ego Strength Scale, Richard H. Dana, Jean T. Teter

Regional Research Institute for Human Services

One component of an MMPI Ego Strength Scale (Es) definition, personal adaptability, was investigated by behavioral, conscious, and fantasy measures of persistence. Male and female, high and low Es subjects, did not differ on these measures. Measures of persistence alone may be inadequate samples of the personal adaptability component of Es.
