The Social Environments Of Nursing Homes And Their Consequences For The Styles Of Participation Of Older Residents., Susan Mclaughlin Cole

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

This exploratory, descriptive study of the social environments of two nursing homes and of the styles of participation that old residents develop has been guided by the symbolic interactionist premise that people act toward things on the basis of the meanings these things have for them. Participant observation was the primary data gathering technique, but two survey type instruments were also used. The goals of the study were to make contributions to (1) the building of grounded, substantive theory in social gerontology; (2) improving data gathering techniques appropriate for studies of old people; and (3) solving practical problems in nursing …

An Instructional Sequence In Experimental Design And Statistics For Graduate Music Therapy Students., Anthony Arthur Decuir

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of this study was to develop a course in experimental design and statistics for graduate music therapy students. This study was developed in order to address, specifically, research problems in music therapy. Two recent independent studies of graduate research projects of music therapy studies indicated that the chief deficiencies were inadequate research designs and the under-utilization of statistical devices. As an addendum to the development of the course, a survey of the statistical course offerings in graduate and undergraduate music therapy curricula was conducted. The sixty-four music therapy departments approved by the National Association for Music Therapy were …

Advance Notice Of Plant Closings: Toward National Legislation, Joseph A. Cipparone

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This article advocates the adoption of national legislation requiring advance notice for plants closed or relocated for ostensibly economic reasons. Part I discusses the magnitude of the plant closing problem, focusing upon the costs associated with such closings, the types of assistance available for terminated workers, and the inadequacies of current relief efforts. Parts II and III examine the arguments for and against requiring advance notice of plant closings, and conclude that such a requirement represents sound public policy. Part IV proposes a complete model advance notice statute. The model statute establishes minimum requirements for a viable advance notice system, …

Neuropsychological Functioning And Regional Cerebral Blood Flow: A Comparison Between Aged Normals And Alzheimer’S Type Dementia., Robert Walker Butler

All ETDs from UAB

The purpose of this study was to differentiate patients with Alzheimer’s disease from normal aged subjects using the Luria-Nebraska Neuropsychological Test Battery (Luria-Nebraska) and the 133 Xenon inhalation method of determining regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF). In addition, correlations between rCBF detectors and Luria-Nebraska localization scales were investigated in order to ascertain possible agreement on focal areas of functional brain tissue loss. Nine subjects with Alzheimer’s disease were compared to nine normal subjects who had been matched on the basis of age, sex, race, and education. Discriminant analysis revealed 100% correct classification of all patients and normals using three of …

Holistic Fitness Programs For Older Adults As A Means Towards Optimal Aging, Ellen Jean Sherman

Theses

Three objectives were focused upon regarding the potential of holistically designed fitness programs to facilitate optimal aging. The first objective involved a review of the pertinent literature, revealing a small body of research concerning fitness programs which incorporate physical, psychological, and social components. However, very little documentation of measured effects of these programs was discovered within the literature.

The second objective was description of a current study which involved older persons who participated in two varieties of fitness programs, conventional and holistic. A small group of older persons who did not participate in any fitness program was used as a …

Punitive Damages Under The Age Discrimination In Employment Act, George J. Wardwell

UC Law Journal

Although the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) clearly authorizes an award of compensatory damages for pain and suffering resulting from age discrimination, it is less clear that an award of punitive damages is contemplated by the statute. This Comment reviews the judicial development of punitive damages under the ADEA. The Comment next examines whether the language of the Act, its similarity to other statutes, the availability of liquidated damages under the ADEA, or public policy requires that the courts be permitted to make awards of punitive damages. The Comment concludes that an award of punitive damages is appropriate under …

Social Work Practice With The Rural Aged, Nancy Lohmann, Roger A. Lohmann, Ellen Netting

This chapter examines rural problems and services in health, income, housing and social integration. In addition, unique rural issues of community outreach and professional relationships in rural areas are examined.

Developing And Implementing Service-Learning In Aging, Donald E. Gelfand, James P. Firman

Intergenerational

This article focuses on the potential benefits of service-learning in aging to students, the university, and the community.

Opportunities for service-learning are examined using examples from the current Intergenerational Service-Learning Project of the National Council on Aging. The complexity of' initiating and gaining acceptance of service-learning in aging projects is explored, with particular attention given to supervisory and curriculum issues. Finally, the national implications of' service-learning in aging are discussed, as well as the …
