Relationship Between Body Image Dissatisfaction And Fear Of Fatness To Severity Of Smoking Behavior In A Non-Clinical Adolescent Population, Louis J. Bevilacqua, Jr. Jan 2000

Relationship Between Body Image Dissatisfaction And Fear Of Fatness To Severity Of Smoking Behavior In A Non-Clinical Adolescent Population, Louis J. Bevilacqua, Jr.

PCOM Psychology Dissertations

Smoking is the most preventable cause of death in the U.S., yet it continues to kill more people than AIDS, automobile crashes, alcohol and drug abuse, murders, suicides, and fires---combined! In addition to a higher risk of dying prematurely, those who smoke are much more likely to experience numerous health problems. Other associated problems include dependency and tolerance to nicotine. Frequently, those who smoke are also more likely to use other substances such as marijuana, cocaine, heroine, and especially alcohol. These findings are frightening considering that it is estimated that 4.5 million are adolescents. The reasons why adolescents smoke range …

Case Study Of A Cognitive Behavioral Intervention For The Problem Of Marital Division Of Labor, Lily Woo Bollinger

PCOM Psychology Dissertations

This clinical dissertation concerns an evaluation of a Cognitive-Behavioral Marital Therapy intervention designed to help resolve the issue of division of household labor and thereby increase marital satisfaction. There were six ninety-minute group marital sessions. There were 3 couples in the group. The sessions contained interventions to increase communication skills, problem-solving skills and raise empathy for the spouse who did more chores. The case study couple's score indicated that the husband had a higher level of marital satisfaction. The wife's final score indicated a small increase in marital satisfaction. Both had an increased score in being more self-centered.

Leadership Requirements In The 21st Century : The Perceptions Of Canadian Public Sector Leaders, M. Ruth Dantzer

Problem. Since 1995, with the realization that by 2005 more than 61% of executives in the senior ranks of the Canadian Public Service would be eligible for retirement (La Releve, 1998), the need to recruit and develop competent leaders has become a matter of urgent attention.

Method. Public sector leaders were surveyed by mail-in questionnaires as to their ratings of a set of leadership competencies. Analogue research for privatesector leaders, conducted by a colleague, was incorporated for some analysis. A stratified sample of the general public was also surveyed by telephone regarding a subset of the same competencies.

Results. Public …


Fine-Tuning The Exercise Formula, David Swain Jan 2000

Fine-Tuning The Exercise Formula, David Swain

Rehabilitation Sciences Faculty Publications

(First paragraph) One hundred years ago, our forebears consumed more calories than we do today, yet they were leaner. Labor-saving devices were a rarity, and so in everyday life most people worked very hard physically. Obesity was present, of course, but afflicted only a small fraction of the population. We are not as fortunate today.

Water Conservation Incentives For New Mexico: Policy And Legislative Alternatives, William M. Fleming, Emlen Hall Jan 2000

Water Conservation Incentives For New Mexico: Policy And Legislative Alternatives, William M. Fleming, Emlen Hall

Law of the Rio Chama

A broad range of options for encouraging municipal, industrial and agricultural water conservation are proposed for water-short New Mexico. Of particular interest are feasible options within the existing institutional and legal framework, focusing on measures that could be implemented without statutory changes by the Office of the State Engineer and the Interstate Stream Commission. Definitions of water conservation and beneficial use should be adopted, with emphasis on efficiency and economic feasibility. A "water conservation policy handbook" should be developed, with guidelines for preparing conservation plans and information on available conservation grants and water banking opportunities. Additional funding for water conservation …
