護理系在職進修班學生照護Hiv陽性患者意願之探討, 芸芳 蔡, 秉荃 熊

Journal of Medical Education

本研究的目的在了解護理系在職進修班學生對照護HIV陽性病患的知識、態度、主觀規範、護理照護能力及照護意願，並運用意願預测因子模式來探討護生的知識、態度、主觀規範及護理照護能力對其照護此類病患意願之影響。隨機抽取4所醫學院二技護理系的學生為研究對象，共收得有效問卷323份。結果顯示大多數的護生缺乏有關HIV的知識，對照護HIV陽性病患抱持中立略偏正向的態度，感受到其重要他人不支持他去照護HIV陽性病患，但認為自己具有照護HIV陽性病患之護理照護能力。護生亦表示些許的負向意願來照護HIV陽性病患。此外，態度越正向、越感受到重要他人支持的壓力及越認為自己具有護理照護能力的護生，越具有照護意願。以複迴歸分析來檢測預測因子模式，結果發現知識、態度、主觀規範及護理照護能力對於照護意願的解釋力為33％，但僅有態度以及主觀規範為主要的意願預測因子。因此，未來護理教育者可藉由改善護理系在職進修班學生對照護HIV陽性病患之態度及主觀規範，以提升其照護意願，進而改善HIV陽性病患之護理照護品質。

通識教育課程缺課原因之探討, 天鈞 張

Journal of Medical Education

通識敎育已成爲大學敎育重要的一環。本研究的主要目的爲瞭解通識敎育課程學生缺課之次數、動機，並提出改進的辦法。研究對象爲修「人與醫學」之醫學院學生253位，及修「醫學與生活」之非醫學院學生218位。「人與醫學」上課時間爲星期五下午一至三時，「醫學與生活」則爲星期三下午一至三時。期末測驗時，順便附上不記名之問卷調查，包括缺課幾次、缺課的理由、這堂課有否幫助，及建議如何改進會不缺課。結果顯示「人與醫學」課程有42％的學生在14次上課中缺課三次以上，而「醫學與生活」課程則有60％的學生在16次上課中缺課三次以上。另有考試要準備是很常見的缺課理由，在「人與醫學」高達32％，在「醫學與生活」則爲47％。另外比較常見的缺課理由在「人與醫學」以回家最多，而「醫學與生活」則是交通問题。認爲這堂課幫助很大或普通的人，於「人與醫學」爲70％，在「醫學與生活」則爲87％。在「人與醫學」方面，使課程内容生動有趣、生活化，更改上課時間及地點，是最重要的讓學生不缺課的方法。在「醫學與生活」，則使課程内容生活化、簡化及在台大羅斯福路校總區開課而不是在仁爱路醫學院上課，和點名是最重要的讓學生不缺課的方法。總之，通識敎育對學生是有幫助的，但受到重视的程度可能不如專業科目，因此採用較有趣生動、實用的敎學方式，並考慮學生上課的方便性，及安排適當的上課時間，可能是改善缺課情形的重要方法。

由醫學邏輯的觀點談疾病定義、分類、與因果關係, 希平 陸

Journal of Medical Education

醫學知識的累積，有極大的部份靠的具臨床的經驗與觀摩。由於醫學的不確定性本質，故長久以來經驗法則深植我們心中，而忽略了從基本道理去了解、分析的重要性。醫學邏輯即試圖以邏輯思考的方式探索許多醫學中的原理，藉由這種思考模式，可提供我們一個反向，從根本深究的思維。本文即藉由邏輯觀點來探討疾病的分類與因果關係的形成與分析。在往後我們對於醫學上有重大發現或突破時，這些觀念將對我們大有裨益。

病人與醫學教育：從被動的參與者到主動的分擔者, 義隆 連

Journal of Medical Education

病人在醫學生的敎育及訓練是不可或缺的，然而，他們的貢獻常常未能得到應有的重視。有關病人在醫學敎育中所佔的地位，文獻顯示：當體認到病人所提供的經驗及見解很有價値時，病人在醫學敎育中的地位也越顯得重要。病人在醫學敎育體系中，是深具潛力的，也是尚未被充分開發的重要敎學資源。爲使病人積極的參與醫學敎育，敎師必需在醫學生學習的環境中，使病人成爲參與敎學的重要成員，並賦予其有價値的角色。Hendry和他的同僚在其研究論文中指出：假如病人能以更主動的態度，加入醫學敎育的陣容中，並成爲課程的設計、執行及評估者，則病人對醫學敎育的重要性將不亞於專家學者，並對醫學生的訓練有積極的貢獻。

Effectiveness Of Extension Cotton Advisory Committees, John Barnett, Earl Johnson, Satish Verma

Journal of Extension

Well-organized and managed advisory committees are a key to quality Extension programs. Extension agents and members working with cotton advisory committees were interviewed in focus groups to find out if committees were effectively involved in programming and committee processes. Both groups agreed that committees were highly involved in giving advice to agents, legitimizing decisions, and implementing programs. Committees were less involved or not at all involved in communicating with others, or planning and evaluating programs. It was concluded that cotton advisory committees could be more effective if agents improved their management of some aspects of committee work, and if members …

Methods And Techniques For Production Of Genetically Modified Maize At Monsanto Global Seed, Michelle Renee Mcgehee

Honors Theses

The development of transgenic plants for agricultural purposes consumes much time and energy but is well worth the battle. From the laboratory perspective, hours are spent trying to force plant cells to uptake new DNA. Several methods are available for this practice, including Ti-plasmid mediated transformation, microprojectile bombardment, and electroporation. Each method depends primarily on the organism one wishes to transform. Once the gene of interest has been inserted, the seed from these transgenic plants goes to pilot stations to be grown in nurseries and yield production fields and tested for resistance against many elements. The final product is put …

A Comparison Of The Effects Of Temporal Requirement And Response Form On Retention, Equivalence, And Endurance, Amy Lorraine Mccarty

Dissertations

Many researchers and practitioners have reported dramatic learning gains that they attribute to the fluency procedure, often citing rate of response as a critical feature. Others have been unsuccessful at demonstrating these claims empirically. A variety of differences between methods and procedures that may account for the different outcomes are discussed in this paper. In particular is the difference in outcomes when topography-based as opposed to selection-based responses were targeted for training. Fluency practitioners, and the researchers who have obtained similar positive outcomes, have for the most part used topography-based forms of response during the drill and practice sessions, or …

A Case Study Of Process Servers In Clark County, Nevada In The District Attorney Criminal Division, Amy M. Meedel

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

In 1996 the job classification of Process Server was created in the Clark County District Attorney Criminal Division in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was implemented by DA Stewart L. Bell as a cost-saving measure meant as a reclassification of the position of Investigator. Since the initial job posting, the duties appropriate to the position of Process Server have been and remain in question. No written, measurable job performance standards have been established and no consistent training or supervision provided. A review of the literature suggests wide variance in what may be considered appropriate job duties for this classification, though the …

Officer Involved Shooting: The Emotional Impact And The Effective Coping Strategies, Patrick P. Charoen

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

The emotional impact of a shooting incident on the individual police officer has been recognized and detailed by both police and mental health professionals (Lippert & Ferrara, 1984). The human cost and financial costs to Police Departments as a result of "post shooting" trauma has sensitized many departments to the need for professional support for officers involved in shootings. Recent survey research has provided information about the percentage of officers who experienced great, moderate, or no emotional impact after being involved in shootings (Stratton, 1982). However, information about the degree to which police departments have responded to this need has …

A Comparative Analysis Of Southern Nevada Municipalities, And Their Active Participation To Implement Historical Preservation, Rhonda M. Reeves

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

A comparative analysis of southern Nevada municipalities, and their active participation to implement historical preservation is the foundation of research for this paper. The city of Las Vegas and surrounding municipalities have varying preservation programs in place. The distinctions between the municipalities historic preservation programs foster little protection for the historic site itself in most cases. Historic preservationists are actively bringing to the attention of government the importance of preservation, and are seeking more and more action on the part of the government to implement historic preservation mandates and protection.

The federal government funding for historical preservation within states is …

Comparing Outcome Of Residential And Intensive Outpatient Treatment Services For Substance Dependence, Shawn E. Channell

Dissertations

The past 20 years have witnessed a significant increase in the number of published studies comparing inpatient with outpatient substance dependence treatment The majority of these studies have reported no benefit for those recipients receiving more intensive treatment However, the outpatient treatment investigated in these studies has typically been day treatment often involving 27 hours a week of participation, and not intensive outpatient treatment (IOP), which involves 12 or fewer hours of participation per week. Additionally, few published studies have compared alcohol and cocaine dependent populations. This study was designed to compare effectiveness of the residential and intensive outpatient levels …

Demographic information as well as subjects’ level of participation in several activities …

Students’ Conceptions Of Mathematics And The Transition From A Standards-Based Reform Curriculum To College Mathematics, Rebecca K. Walker

Dissertations

Students’ conceptions of mathematics are shaped by the environment within which they learn mathematics and in turn they affect the manner in which students engage in mathematics.

This study examined students’ conceptions about learning, knowing, and doing mathematics after studying four years of a Standards-based reform high school mathematics curriculum developed by the Core-Plus Mathematics Project (CPMP). Student conceptions were examined at the end of high school (n = 2S6) and after one semester of college mathematics (n = 92). The study also provides case studies of six students as they navigated from the CPMP curriculum through college Precalculus or …
