Occupational Therapy Faculty Publications

Occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants rely on knowledge and skills to guide their intervention planning as they help clients who are experiencing difficulties with engaging in occupation. Sensory integration theory, with its rich history grounded in the science of human growth and development, offers occupational therapy practitioners specific intervention strategies to remediate the underlying sensory issues that affect functional performance.

This article articulates the core principles of sensory integration as originally developed by Dr. A. Jean Ayres, explains the rationale for developing a trademark specifically linked to these core principles, and identifies the impact that this trademark can have …

The Ethics Of Infection Control: Philosophical Frameworks, Charles S. Bryan, Theresa J. Call, Kevin Elliott

Faculty Publications

Recent developments that are relevant to the ethics of infection control include the patient safety movement, the appearance of new diseases (notably, severe acute respiratory syndrome) that pose threats to healthcare workers, data confirming the suspicion that infection control measures such as isolation may compromise patient care, and, in philosophy, renewed interest in virtue ethics and communitarianism. We review general ethical frameworks and relevant vocabulary for infection control practitioners and hospital epidemiologists. Frameworks for the ethics of infection control resemble those of public health more than those of clinical medicine but embrace elements of both. The optimum framework, we suggest, …

Organizing The Baby Boomer Construct: An Exploration Of Marketing, Social Systems, And Culture, Jeremy Harris Lipschultz, Michael L. Hilt, Hugh J. Reilly

Communication Faculty Publications

Baby boomer trends are applied in the development of a conceptual framework that offers a social systems and cultural model for future studies. While there has been considerable recent attention paid to baby boomers, the studies lack a coherent theoretical base that would allow for more advanced and continuing research. Aging baby boomers heading into retirement present excellent research opportunities for scholars.

台灣職能治療師之研究導向初探, 中珮 傅, 美惠 曾, 威勝 陳, 昱瑋 陳, 國德 楊, 曼聰 黃, 文隆 梁

Journal of Medical Education

目的：台灣職能治療界近年來開始推行實證職能治療，然而目前尚無研究探討台灣職能治療界推行實證治療之成效，包括治療師的研究導向行為是否增強。因此，本研究的目的為探討台灣職能治療師之研究導向，即對於研究的重視、參與，以及新知的接受和研究資訊臨床運用情形。方法：研究對象為411位高雄市、台北市及台灣省職能治療師公會之會員，填寫基本資料與艾德蒙頓研究導向量表（Edmonton Research Orientation Survey，簡稱EROS）。結果：台灣職能治療師之EROS量表總分平均為139.42（SD=20.30, n=411,範圍為89-190），四個次量表之平均分數為22.49-37.06分。結論：目前台灣職能治療師對研究及實證治療為中等程度的重視及參與，且在研究的參與、新知的接受及實證治療臨床運用情況與加拿大地區類似，仍有改善之餘地。未來應在大學教育中增加實證職能治療課程，舉辦與研究及實證治療相關之在職教育，並積極鼓勵臨床治療師進修，建立台灣職能治療線上行動研究團體等，以促進實證職能治療的推展，進一步提升職能治療的專業性，並落實提供優質醫療服務之理念。

教學醫院主治醫師與住院醫師之工作時數與相關因素之研究, 銘欽 楊, 伊帆 黎, 璽倫 魏

Journal of Medical Education

目的：探討教學醫院主治及住院醫師在醫療服務、教學、研究與行政之工作時數及相關因素。方法：以郵寄自填式問卷蒐集實際工作時數與期望合理工作時數，並估算住院醫師之全職主治醫師當量(Full-Time Equivalent, FTE)。結果：回覆問卷之主治醫師其工作時數平均為89小時／週，研究醫師平均為102小時／週，總住院醫師平均為123小時／週，而住院醫師平均為112小時／週。醫師職級、科別及醫院層級別與工作時數顯著相關，其中外科及婦產科醫療服務時數較其他科的醫師高。根據受訪主治醫師的估計，平均1位住院醫師相當於0.86位全職主治醫師。結論：受訪主治醫師及住院醫師每週工作時間均超過80小時；醫師職級越低，工作小時數越長。未來可參採住院醫師相當於主治醫師當量之概念，估算醫院醫師所需之人力。

Validation Of Kolb's Structural Model Of Experiential Learning Using Honey And Mumford's Learning Style Questionnaire, Kai-Kuen Leung, Li-Jen Weng

Journal of Medical Education

Learning Style Questionnaire (LSQ) was developed according to Kolb's experiential learning model which classified learning into a four-stage cycle. The LSQ was translated into Chinese and applied to a convenient sample of students from a university and a nursing school. Seven hundred and twenty students (women 55.1%) completed the survey. Men had a more theorist style than women (P=0.001). Medical students had a more theorist style than other students. Cronbach's coefficient alphas of the four learning styles are 0.65, 0.62, 0.67 and 0.67, respectively. Theorist was positively related to the reflector (r=0.44) and pragmatist (r=0.50). The activist was negatively related …

台中榮民總醫院一般醫學內科訓練示範中心之運作經驗, 明儒 吳, 怡行 陳, 得源 陳, 惠恆 許, 忠亮 藍

Journal of Medical Education

為推廣全人照護能力之教學與訓練，台灣醫學教育學會受衛生署委託辦理「一般醫學內科訓練示範中心」補助計畫，台中榮總自民國95年3月獲准成立一般醫學內科訓練示範中心以來，投入大量師資人力物力執行本院和多家社區合作醫院學員的訓練。我們不斷檢討力求精進，也獲得台灣醫學教育學會和醫策會的肯定。但是，教育不可能百分之百完美無缺，而醫學教育的成功也絕對不是短期間、少數人的投入、個別醫院或個別單位的努力所能完成的。基於傳承與分享的理念，我們整理出本中心的經驗，希望能有更多的討論與回饋指教。

Integrating Complementary Alternative Medicine Into Nursing Education In Taiwan, Li-Chun Tang, Chang-Shu Tsai, Chung-Hung Tsai

Journal of Medical Education

The growing use and practice of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) by the general public and health professionals in the United States and other countries has received significant attention from health care educators. Inadequate educational preparation and training in CAM for health care professionals may jeopardize the well-being of clients. Integration of CAM into nursing curricula is needed for the following reasons: (1) the growing interest in and use of CAM by the general public and health care professionals; (2) the incorporation of CAM into medical curricula and standard practice; (3) greater acceptance of the legitimacy of CAM; (4) the …

The Overlooked Costs Of Religious Deference, Robin Fretwell Wilson

Washington and Lee Law Review

Citing the Qur'an, a German divorce court judge this year denied a fast track divorce to a Muslim woman who had been the victim of domestic violence and death threats from her husband. The judge rejected her application because the husband's exercise of his "right to castigate does not fulfill the hardship criteria" for an expedited divorce. The decision, which sparked a firestorm of controversy, comes at an important time in the movement to embrace pluralistic understandings of family relationships. Scholars and policymakers around the world are advancing various schemes for sharing state control over domestic disputes with religious groups-ranging …
