Religiosity, Sexual Activity, And Attitudes Of Sexual Permissiveness Among Older Adolescents, Richard Fehring, K Cheever, K German, C Philpot
Religiosity, Sexual Activity, And Attitudes Of Sexual Permissiveness Among Older Adolescents, Richard Fehring, K Cheever, K German, C Philpot
Richard J Fehring
This study investigates religiosity, sexual activity, and sexual permissiveness among older adolescents. Eighty-two college students completed a survey that measured religiosity, sexual permissiveness, self-esteem, frequency of recent sexual encounters, and motivators for sexual activity or abstinence. Guilt, prayer, organized religious activity, and religious well-being predicted fewer sexual encounters. Orthodox beliefs, participation in organized religious activities, and highly-rated importance of faith predicted less permissive sexual attitudes. We conclude that guilt and religious activity can be good motivators for decreasing sexual encounters. We recommend that health practitioners encourage participation in religious activity among adolescents.

Evaluation Of The Lady Free Biotester In Determining The Fertile Period, Richard Fehring, Nancy Gaska
Evaluation Of The Lady Free Biotester In Determining The Fertile Period, Richard Fehring, Nancy Gaska
Richard J Fehring
Small hand-held microscopes have been developed for self-observation of salivary ferning patterns to detect the fertile time of a woman’s menstrual cycle. The purpose of this study was to evaluate one such microscope, the Lady Free Biotester®, by comparing it with the self-observation of cervical-vaginal mucus and with the self-detection of luteinizing hormone (LH) in the urine. Twelve natural family planning teachers (average age 34.6 years) observed their cervical-vaginal mucus, tested their urine for LH, and observed salivary and cervical-vaginal mucus ferning patterns (with the Lady Free Biotester) for two menstrual cycles. Data indicated that there was a strong correlation …
Accuracy Of The Ovulon Fertility Monitor To Predict And Detect Ovulation, Richard Fehring, W Schlaff
Accuracy Of The Ovulon Fertility Monitor To Predict And Detect Ovulation, Richard Fehring, W Schlaff
Richard J Fehring
The purpose of this pilot study was to correlate the three biologic markers of the Ovulon fertility monitor (a long-term predictive peak about 6 days before ovulation, a short-term predictive peak about 1 day before ovulation, and a nadir at the time of ovulation) with the peak in cervical mucus and the luteinizing hormone (LH) surge in the urine. Ten volunteer subjects (mean age 30.2 years) monitored their cervical-vaginal mucus, the surge of LH in the urine with a home assay test, and their vaginal electrical readings (with Ovulon monitors) on a daily basis for one to four menstrual cycles. …

Student Perceptions Of Empowerment In Their Graduate Program, Genevieve Chandler, Sj Roberts
Student Perceptions Of Empowerment In Their Graduate Program, Genevieve Chandler, Sj Roberts
Genevieve E. Chandler
Empowerment is a critical aspect of the education of the Advanced Practice Nurse (APN). This paper reports a study which asked for feedback from APN students about their experience of feelings of empowerment and powerlessness in their graduate program. Learning which was driven by the student's interest, which respected and valued their experience and which guided them in defining and pursuing individual goals was empowering. Powerlessness was experienced when faculty controlled the process, were demeaning about students' abilities and when learning was not connected to their goals. Advanced Practice Nurses (APN) are in great demand for the emerging health care …

The Use Of Convocation For Exploring Multiculturalism, Ida Slusher, C. Newell-Withrow
Ida Slusher
The development of creative persons in the field of nursing has been identified as a major task for nurse leaders (1). A critical component in the development of creative nurses is the development of persons who are culturally sensitive, who recognize and respect cultural diversity (2).
Nurses need a broad understanding of the impact of society, politics, and culture on the practice of professional nursing (3). We have been challenged to discover ways to explore diverse aspects of humanity that are not culturally bound (4). Through exposure to multiculturalism, we are helped to become sensitive to our own cultural biases …
