The Role Of Optimal Healing Environments In The Management Of Childhood Obesity, Marjorie Freedman, Judith Stern Oct 2004

The Role Of Optimal Healing Environments In The Management Of Childhood Obesity, Marjorie Freedman, Judith Stern

Faculty Publications

The prevalence of childhood and adolescent obesity has increased steadily over the past three decades such that obesity is now a major worldwide pediatric health risk factor. Pediatric obesity is associated with significant health problems, and is an important early risk factor for adult morbidity and mortality. This paper focuses on the role and components of optimal healing environments (OHEs) that may be useful in the management of childhood obesity: healing intention, healing relationships, health promotion and disease prevention, and healing spaces. Diet, physical activity, and behavior modification strategies used in the treatment of childhood obesity are also reviewed.

Work Flow Policy And Within-Worker And Between-Workers Variability In Performance, Kenneth Howard Doerr, Tali Freed, Terence R. Mitchell, Chester A. Schriesheim, Xiaohua Zhou Oct 2004

Work Flow Policy And Within-Worker And Between-Workers Variability In Performance, Kenneth Howard Doerr, Tali Freed, Terence R. Mitchell, Chester A. Schriesheim, Xiaohua Zhou

Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering

Work flow policies are shown to induce a change in average between-workers variability (worker heterogeneity) and within-worker variability in performance times. In a laboratory experiment, the authors measured the levels of worker heterogeneity and within-worker variability under an individual performance condition, a work sharing condition, and a fixed assignment condition. The work sharing policy increased the levels of worker heterogeneity and worker variability, whereas the fixed assignment policy decreased them. These effects, along with work flow policy main effects on mean performance times and variability are examined. This article represents an initial step in understanding effects that may be important …

Annie Ernaux's Passion Simple And Se Perdre: Proust's 'Amour-Maladie' Revisited And Revised, Elizabeth Richardson Viti Oct 2004

Annie Ernaux's Passion Simple And Se Perdre: Proust's 'Amour-Maladie' Revisited And Revised, Elizabeth Richardson Viti

French Faculty Publications

At first blush it may seem that Marcel Proust and Annie Ernaux have little in common. The author a A la recherche du temps perdu depends extensively on metaphor and serpentine sentences which culminate in a three-thousand-page work while the more contemporary writer rejects prolixity and imagery and produces dramatically briefer texts.

Reflections Of A Recoving Lawyer: How Becoming A Cognitive Psychologist —And (In Particular) Studying Analogical And Causal Reasoning—Changed My Views About The Field Of Psychology And Law, Barbara A. Spellman Oct 2004

Reflections Of A Recoving Lawyer: How Becoming A Cognitive Psychologist —And (In Particular) Studying Analogical And Causal Reasoning—Changed My Views About The Field Of Psychology And Law, Barbara A. Spellman

Chicago-Kent Law Review

known as Law and Psychology), a small number of topics have stimulated the overwhelming majority of research. However, the topics available for psychology and law inquiry are infinite—limited only by the experience and imaginations of the re- searchers. I describe several areas of basic research in cognitive and social psychology that I, my colleagues, and my students, have been involved in during the past dozen years and demonstrate how they can be applied to the law. The major areas include: analogical reasoning—relevant to legal training and the use of precedent in judicial reasoning and legal scholarship; and causal and counterfactual …


Feminising Prehistory, David Oldroyd Oct 2004

Feminising Prehistory, David Oldroyd

Accounting Historians Notebook

In a recent paper Oldroyd (2003) explored the idea, first gaining ground in the 19th century, that a time once existed in prehistory when society was universally matriarchal, and counting and calculation were the exclusive preserves of women. Despite the extreme antiquity of the subject, making proof difficult, there is some supporting evidence. The topic is noteworthy for a number of reasons, not least because it suggests an earlier place for women in the history of accounting than is usually acknowledged. In speculating that the first reckoning/accounting devices - a series of notched bone awls dating from the Upper Paleolithic …

Bih In Black And White: Photo-Diary Of My Adventure Learning How Ngo’S Anti-Trafficking Prevention Programs Work In Small Communities In Bosnia And Herzegovina, Rebecca Johnson

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

From the very beginning of my immersion in the Balkans, the issue of Trafficking of Human Beings has found a nook in my mind of righteousness, and ever since, the interest of learning how this crime is being prevented has festered. In the one-month period of time I had for my research, I spent 5 days in Modriča, 8 days in Ključ, 5 days in Mostar, 7 days in Sarajevo, and 2 days in Dubrovnik. The goal of my travels was to see first hand the actual and physical actions that NGO’s in small towns in Bosnia and Herzegovina (hereinafter …


Art And Democracy In Environmental Decision Making, Audrey Stewart Oct 2004

Art And Democracy In Environmental Decision Making, Audrey Stewart

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

Global doctrines on sustainable development emphasize public participation as a tenet of environmentally responsible development. Given the Czech government’s tepid stance towards implementing sustainability measures, much impetus for realizing them will have to come from other facets of Czech society, including the public. In spite of the nearly populist feel of a mounting environmental movement in the late 1980s, after the Velvet Revolution the Czech public remained relatively disengaged from environmental involvement. Traditional decision-making venues within the Czech Republic now actively exclude the public from participating, while other pressures stemming from history and present also diminish the public impetus for …

Evolution Of Nociception In Vertebrates: Comparative Analysis Of Lower Vertebrates, Lynne U. Sneddon Oct 2004

Evolution Of Nociception In Vertebrates: Comparative Analysis Of Lower Vertebrates, Lynne U. Sneddon

Veterinary Science and Medicine Collection

Nociception is an important sensory system of major fundamental and clinical relevance. The nociceptive system of higher vertebrates is well studied with a wealth of information about nociceptor properties, involvement of the central nervous system and the in vivo responses to a noxious experience are already characterised. However, relatively little is known about nociception in lower vertebrates and this review brings together a variety of studies to understand how this information can inform the evolution of nociception in vertebrates. It has been demonstrated that teleost fish possess nociceptors innervated by the trigeminal nerve and that these are physiologically similar to …

Profile: Express Yourself! Philanthropically, Politically, Artistially, University Relations

Profile (1996-)

the theme of this issue of Profile is "Express Yourself". We are focusing upon self expression in the worlds of politics, the arts and philanthropy. I can certainly testify that free and enthusiastic expression in all these venues, is flourishing at UMM--indeed, there are occasionally days in my professional life as chancellor when it occurs to me that it might be nice to take a short break from all this vigorous expression!

Apology And Thick Trust: What Spouse Abusers And Negligent Doctors Might Have In Common, Erin Ann O'Hara Oct 2004

Apology And Thick Trust: What Spouse Abusers And Negligent Doctors Might Have In Common, Erin Ann O'Hara

Chicago-Kent Law Review

This Article argues that an evolutionary analysis of the role of apology in human interactions helps us to identify contexts where victims are prone to excessively forgive wrongdoing. The Article explores two of those contexts—spouse abuse and medical malpractice—and begins to explore ways that the law does and should attempt to counteract the negative effects of excessive forgiveness.


Matching Instructional Design With Vocabulary Instruction, William Dee Nichols, William H. Rupley Oct 2004

Matching Instructional Design With Vocabulary Instruction, William Dee Nichols, William H. Rupley

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Instructional design is an integral part of a balanced approach to teaching vocabulary instruction. The goal of this paper is to reflect on several lessons using research-based vocabulary strategies, and to present thinkalouds that detail the steps in matching instructional design with those strategies, in order to reach the learning outcome. Vocabulary instruction should encourage students to make associations and accommodations to their experiences and provide them with varied opportunities to practice, apply, and discuss their word knowledge in meaningful settings. The ultimate goal of teaching vocabulary is for the students to expand, refine, and add to their existing conceptual …
