Evaluation Of The Effectiveness Of A Urinary Continence Program With Urinary Incontinent Rehabilitation Patients, Pat Emmons May 2000

Evaluation Of The Effectiveness Of A Urinary Continence Program With Urinary Incontinent Rehabilitation Patients, Pat Emmons

Master's Projects

This study used a quasi-experimental design to evaluate the outcomes of a continence program in a rehabilitation center with patients receiving therapies (N=l2) and to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of the rehabilitation staff (N=27) before and after reviewing a teaching module about urinary incontinence. Roy's adaptation theory was used as the conceptual framework for this research project. The tools used for data collection were: the Functional Independence Measure {FIM), daily 24 hour incontinence logs, pre/post true and false knowledge tests and pre/post staff attitude questionnaires. Eleven of the 12 patients admitted to the program had improved FIM scores and …


Evaluation Of The Effectiveness Of The "Youth Leadership" Class In The Prevention Of Adolescent Depression, Jacqueline Oria May 2000

Evaluation Of The Effectiveness Of The "Youth Leadership" Class In The Prevention Of Adolescent Depression, Jacqueline Oria

Master's Projects

Depression in adolescence is a common and potentially life-threatening health problem. Depending upon the severity of symptoms, anywhere from 2% to 40% of teenagers are affected with depression (Sadler, 1993). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of prevention strategies on decreasing the rate of depression in adolescents. It is hoped that a class addressing specific skills identified as having an impact on adolescent depression will affect the youth participating in the program.


Culture Of Origin And Illness Attribution: The Implications Of Cross-Cultural Awareness For Health Care Professionals, Eri Matsumoto-Lyons May 2000

Culture Of Origin And Illness Attribution: The Implications Of Cross-Cultural Awareness For Health Care Professionals, Eri Matsumoto-Lyons

Master's Projects

People from different cultural backgrounds have different beliefs and perceptions concerning health and illness. Differing illness beliefs between health professionals and patients may result in conflicting expectations regarding treatment choice and outcome. This non-experimental research was designed to explore illness attribution among Caucasian, Hispanics, and Asians with chronic or acute illness. The results suggest that there was no significant difference in illness attribution beliefs between the three ethnic groups; however, primary language, years spent in U.S., and educational backgrounds were associated with differences in illness attribution. Health care providers must think of culture in a broader spectrum than just race …

Prominent Signs Of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity In The Adult, Marcia Katz May 2000

Prominent Signs Of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity In The Adult, Marcia Katz

Master's Projects

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurophyschiatric syndrome which most commonly becomes apparent during the first few years of grade school. While it was previously thought that this disorder remitted before or during adolescence, it has become well established that many patients will have an illness course that persists well into adulthood. The purpose of this study was to determine the 10 most prominent symptoms of ADHD in the adult population. Using the Dunphy and Winland-Brown (1998) "Circle of Caring" conceptual framework and the Wender (1998) Utah Criteria Scale questionnaire, a convenience sample of females (N=l5) from northern California were …

Integrating Residential Care Facilities Into Neighborhoods, Leila H. Moncharsh May 2000

Integrating Residential Care Facilities Into Neighborhoods, Leila H. Moncharsh

Master's Projects

This report examines the issue of integrating residential care facilities (RCFs) into neighborhoods from three perspectives: legal, social scientific research, and from a zoning regulatatory approach. RCFs serve a wide range of disabled persons, but the report focuses mainly upon RCF clients who suffer from mental illness, AIDS/HIV, and drug addiction - i.e., the type of clients that most neighborhoods would not welcome. Rather than focusing, however, upon blaming neighbors or clients, this report deals with recognizing that there can be very real impacts from RCFs located in a neighborhood and looks at ways to address the impacts. The report …
