Cancer Prevention In Primary Care: Predictors Of Patient Counseling Across Four Risk Behaviors Over 24 Months, Judith D. Depue, Michael G. Goldstein, Colleen A. Redding, Wayne F. Velicer, Xiaowu Sun, Joseph L. Fava, Alessandra Kazura, William Rakowski

Cancer Prevention Research Center Faculty Publications

Objective: Rates of preventive counseling remain below national guidelines. We explored physician and patient predictors of preventive counseling across multiple cancer risk behaviors in at-risk primary care patients.

A series of linear-regression models, controlling for …

A Legal Analysis Of Adea And Its Impact On Older Workers, Employer Efficiency And Human Resource Practices, M. Elizabeth Starchura Jan 2005

A Legal Analysis Of Adea And Its Impact On Older Workers, Employer Efficiency And Human Resource Practices, M. Elizabeth Starchura

Seminar Research Paper Series

An analysis of the congressional intent in enacting the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) and a brief review of significant court interpretations of the ADEA provides initial insight into the legislative objectives and the unique problems that older persons face in the workforce.

The participants consisted of an ethnically diverse sample of 12 self-identified lesbian women between 60 and 80 years of age. Each participant responded to semi-structured interview questions.

What factors do homecare nurses consider in defining the situation and making decisions about pain management interventions for older clients? What is the stream of nurses' actions following decisions about pain management interventions for older …
