Occupational Therapy's Link To Vocational Reeducation, 1910-1925., Sharon A. Gutman Nov 1997

Occupational Therapy's Link To Vocational Reeducation, 1910-1925., Sharon A. Gutman

Department of Occupational Therapy Faculty Papers

The development of occupational therapy is rooted in early 20th century medical reform. During the early 1910s, several members of the medical profession, human service workers, and the larger American society were increasingly disturbed by medical practices that did not consider the individual's personal experience of disability. Occupational therapy was developed, in part, out of this desire to provide persons with treatment that helped them to function in their communities despite their disability. Early occupational therapy leaders envisioned the fledgling profession as a societal service capable of assisting persons with disabilities to return to both work and community life. Vocational …

Socio-Economic Rights And The South African Transition: The Role Of The Truth And Reconciliation Commission, Ronald Slye

Faculty Articles

This article examines a part of a foundational principle of the South African Bill of Rights that individuals are entitled to a range of rights that ensure individual security, freedom, and well-being, and that these rights are interdependent and the crucial role of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (the "TRC") in laying the groundwork for the fulfillment of those rights.

Values, Affect And Risk Perception, Kurt Neuwirth, Sharon Dunwoody, Robert J. Griffin Nov 1997

Values, Affect And Risk Perception, Kurt Neuwirth, Sharon Dunwoody, Robert J. Griffin

College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications

Three pilot studies provided data exploring the roles of values, threats to these selfsame values and emotions in the perception of risk. Results indicate that judgements about risk are associated with a wide variety of values and perceived threats to values. The findings also revealed that the negative emotions such as sadness, worry, anger, disgust, helplessness and uncertainty were significantly related to risk perception. The authors' discussion advances the view that the range of topics considered appropriate to risk communication can be extended to the area of public opinion and rhetorical studies.

Sharpening The Focus On Daubert's Distinction Between Scientific And Nonscientific Expert Testimony, Edson Mcclellan Nov 1997

Sharpening The Focus On Daubert's Distinction Between Scientific And Nonscientific Expert Testimony, Edson Mcclellan

San Diego Law Review

Although the Supreme Court elaborated a standard for the admissibility of expert testimony in Daubert, that standard is often inadequate to judging nonscientific testimony. This article proposes a model for judges to apply to expert testimony: courts should discern the epistemological source of experts’ knowledge. If the knowledge underlying an expert’s opinion was derived from the scientific method, courts should apply a different reliability analysis than if the knowledge was derived from the more common experiences shaping daily life. Courts should not only consider the reliability of the underlying methodology upon which the opinions are formed, but also how that …

A Study On Employees Retraining Programmes In Hong Kong, Mei Ling, May Wong

Hong Kong Institute of Business Studies Working Paper Series

Hong Kong has experienced an economic transformation from a manufacturing-based to a service-based economy which has impacted on the demand for manual labour. In 1992, Employee Retraining Board was set up to provide employees retraining programmes to the unemployed manual workers. This study focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of the programmes in helping the unemployed manual workers to acquire and develop knowledge, skills and abilities so that they can re-enter the labour market. The evaluation is based on assessment of training needs, course design in terms of programme structure and content, course evaluation, and follow-up services conducted by the selected …


The Origin, Development, And Regulation Of Norms, Richard H. Mcadams Nov 1997

The Origin, Development, And Regulation Of Norms, Richard H. Mcadams

Michigan Law Review

For decades, sociologists have employed the concept of social norms to explain how society shapes individual behavior. In recent years, economists and rational choice theorists in philosophy and political science have started to use individual behavior to explain the origin and function of norms. For many in this group, the focus of study is the interaction of law and norms, of formal and informal rules. Exemplified by Robert Ellickson's Order Without Law, this literature uses norms to develop more robust explanations of behavior and to predict more accurately the effect of legal rules. Norms turn out to matter in legal …
