The Use Of Explicit, Non-Evocative Print Referencing With Preschool Children At-Risk: Implications For Increasing Print Concept Knowledge, Susan Thomas Frank
The Use Of Explicit, Non-Evocative Print Referencing With Preschool Children At-Risk: Implications For Increasing Print Concept Knowledge, Susan Thomas Frank
Theses and Dissertations--Rehabilitation Sciences
The purpose of this research study was to investigate the learning of print concepts (PCs) by preschool children at risk for literacy problems using an experimental treatment: explicit, non-evocative print referencing. Children from low socio-economic status (SES) families have been determined to be at-risk for literacy learning problems including a reduced knowledge of print concepts.
The study incorporated a multiple group (experimental and control) time series design with persistent insertion of treatment to those subjects who were assigned to the experimental condition. Participants included 25 children at-risk, ages 4:0- 4:11 (years: months) who qualified for pre-school services and for subsidized …
The Effect Of Joint Mobilization On Functional Outcomes Associated With Chronic Ankle Instability, Matthew C. Hoch
The Effect Of Joint Mobilization On Functional Outcomes Associated With Chronic Ankle Instability, Matthew C. Hoch
University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations
Ankle sprains are among the most common injuries sustained by physically active individuals. Although ankle sprains are often considered innocuous in nature, a large percentage of individuals experience repetitive sprains, residual symptoms, and recurrent ankle instability following a single acute sprain; otherwise known as chronic ankle instability (CAI). In addition to repetitive ankle trauma, those with CAI experience reductions in functional capacity over the life span. This indicates that current intervention strategies for CAI are inadequate and require further investigation.
The objective of this dissertation was to explore differences in walking and running gait parameters between individuals with and without …
Clinical And Functional Assessment Following Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation To The Knee: The Role Of Patient Reported Outcomes, Performance Based Assessment, And Response Shift, Jennifer Sebert Howard
Clinical And Functional Assessment Following Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation To The Knee: The Role Of Patient Reported Outcomes, Performance Based Assessment, And Response Shift, Jennifer Sebert Howard
Theses and Dissertations--Rehabilitation Sciences
Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is a cell based therapy for the treatment of articular cartilage defects. Numerous studies have reported outcomes following ACI using a variety of patient reported outcomes (PROs), but no clear recommendations exist regarding which PRO is the most responsive to changes following ACI. Few studies have documented changes in performance based assessments (PBAs) following ACI. Response shift theory proposes that residual changes in self-report measures occur over time. Failing to account for response shift may result in over or under reporting of outcomes from which clinical decisions are made. The purposes of this dissertation were 1) …
Injury-Induced Hand Dominance Transfer, Kathleen E. Yancosek
Injury-Induced Hand Dominance Transfer, Kathleen E. Yancosek
University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations
Hand dominance is the preferential use of one hand over the other for motor tasks. 90% of people are right-hand dominant, and the majority of injuries (acute and cumulative trauma) occur to the dominant limb, creating a double-impact injury whereby a person is left in a functional state of single-handedness and must rely on the less-dexterous, non-dominant hand. When loss of dominant hand function is permanent, a forced shift of dominance is termed injury-induced hand dominance transfer (I-IHDT).
Military service members injured in combat operation may face I-IHDT following mutilating injuries (crush, avulsion, burn and blast wounds) that result in …
The Role Of The Hip Abductor Muscle Complex In The Function Of The Pathological Hip Joint, Maureen Kelly Dwyer
The Role Of The Hip Abductor Muscle Complex In The Function Of The Pathological Hip Joint, Maureen Kelly Dwyer
University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations
The number of patients electing to undergo total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the United States has been projected to double by the year 2030, with a growing number of these patients below the age of 65 years. This cohort of patients not only desires to return to pain free daily activity, but wishes to participate in recreation and sporting activities. However, many of these patients report pain, impairments, and functional limitations following THA. The number one deficit observed for patients who fail conventional post-operative rehabilitation is persistent weakness of the hip abductor muscles. In order to safely progress these patients …
