Defining Family: Naming, Orientation, And Redemption In The Case Of Terri Schiavo, M. Chad Mcbride, Karen L. Daas, Paige W. Toller Jan 2009

Defining Family: Naming, Orientation, And Redemption In The Case Of Terri Schiavo, M. Chad Mcbride, Karen L. Daas, Paige W. Toller

Iowa Journal of Communication

This paper undertakes a detailed analysis of the Terri Schiavo case as it was covered in popular media. Drawing on Burkean theory, we argue a critical issue in the case was a struggle between Terri's parents and husband to be seen as the more legitimate family in order to determine the duration and extent of Terri's medical care. We discuss how the private debate over Terri's health and the decision to remove her feeding tube entered into the public scenes of legal and political action. This shift to the public scene represented problems for the parties directly involved in the …


Walking With Grandma Through Cancer And Caregiving, Mindi Ann Golden Jan 2009

Walking With Grandma Through Cancer And Caregiving, Mindi Ann Golden

Iowa Journal of Communication

This autoethnographic account employs Continuity Theory to examine my experience caregiving for my grandmother in the last year of her life. Little is known about grandchildren as caregivers. I use the routine of walking at the beach with my grandmother to frame my caregiving journey. Our walks implicitly reflect a desire and drive for continuity in the context of profound change. I explicitly discuss internal and external continuity across various contexts and situations throughout my year as a caregiver.

Attention And Memory In Young And Middle-Aged Adults, Emily Sorensen Jan 2009

Attention And Memory In Young And Middle-Aged Adults, Emily Sorensen

Honors Program Theses

Within the field of communication sciences and disorders, studies concerning performance on cognitive tests tend to focus on the differences between young and old-age groups. The geriatric population has significantly increased over the years and will continue to rise in the coming decades. This rise in the number of older adults has resulted in research that is directed towards investigating the decline in cognitive ability in the aging population.


Leisure Programming For Alzheimer’S Clients In Long-Term Care, Timothy D. Doyle Jan 2009

Leisure Programming For Alzheimer’S Clients In Long-Term Care, Timothy D. Doyle

Graduate Research Papers

Leisure programming continues to become more specialized due to the increased needs of special populations of leisure consumers. To meet the needs of the targeted population leisure programmers are required to gather increased information regarding potential clients to stay abreast of current trends. Data gathered regarding more diverse populations, such as persons with disabilities or specific disease, has long been the focus of therapeutic recreation but was often overlooked by other leisure professionals.

The purpose of this paper is to provide information to leisure professionals regarding the use of leisure activities for Alzheimer's clients in long-term care. Research has found …

Aging Effects On The Transcription Of Differentially Impaired Dysarthric Speech, Molly Anne Duggan Jan 2008

Aging Effects On The Transcription Of Differentially Impaired Dysarthric Speech, Molly Anne Duggan

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Thirty participants transcribed 60 words and 30 sentences spoken by persons with dysarthria. Participants, all aged 65 and older were divided into three age groups: Young-Old, Middle-Old, and Old-Old. Each group was comprised of 10 participants. Stimuli were recorded by two male speakers with differing severity levels of dysarthria. Results suggested age did affect the transcription scores, as the Young-Old participants were able to transcribe words and sentences with greater accuracy than the Old-Old participants. The severity of the dysarthric speaker also affected the accuracy of participants in transcribing their words and sentences. Utterances produced by the speaker with mild …
