Family-Of-Origin Quality, Regulation Of Negative Affect, Marital Stability, And Couple Drinking Patterns, Heidi M. Brunner Jul 2006

Family-Of-Origin Quality, Regulation Of Negative Affect, Marital Stability, And Couple Drinking Patterns, Heidi M. Brunner

Theses and Dissertations

The primary purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of family-of-origin quality, adult regulation of negative affect, and marital stability with the extent to which couples report they drink similarly and the extent to which they report that the husband drinks more than the wife. It was hypothesized that these two types of couple drinking patterns would be impacted by each individual spouse's context as well as by the interaction of those contexts. A national sample of 1498 couples or 2996 individuals (1498 wives and 1498 husbands married to each other) participated in this study. This study sought …

Japanese Mothers' Parenting Styles With Preschool-Age Children, Ai Shibazaki Lau Jul 2006

Japanese Mothers' Parenting Styles With Preschool-Age Children, Ai Shibazaki Lau

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to examine whether Western typologies of parenting (authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and psychological control) and their dimensions (e.g., connection, regulation, physical punishment, verbal hostility) can be measured in the context of Japanese parenting. Based on the literature review, it was hypothesized that these parenting constructs are measurable in Japan. The participants were 214 Japanese mothers of preschool-age children (101 boys and 113 girls) from several preschools in Kushiro-city, Japan. A series of two-group (boys and girls) Confirmatory Factor Analysis was carried out with Mplus statistical software to test the measurement models of authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, …

Relationship Between Resident Workload And Self-Perceived Learning On Inpatient Medicine Wards: A Longitudinal Study, Elizabeth M. Haney, Christina Nicolaidis, Alan Hunter, Benjamin K. Chan, Thomas G. Cooney, Judith L. Bowen Jul 2006

Relationship Between Resident Workload And Self-Perceived Learning On Inpatient Medicine Wards: A Longitudinal Study, Elizabeth M. Haney, Christina Nicolaidis, Alan Hunter, Benjamin K. Chan, Thomas G. Cooney, Judith L. Bowen

School of Social Work Faculty Publications and Presentations

Background: Despite recent residency workload and hour limitations, little research on the relationship between workload and learning has been done. We sought to define residents' perceptions of the optimal patient workload for learning, and to determine how certain variables contribute to those perceptions. Our hypothesis was that the relationship between perceived workload and learning has a maximum point (forming a parabolic curve): that either too many or too few patients results in sub-optimal learning.

Methods: Residents on inpatient services at two academic teaching hospitals reported their team and individual patient censuses, and rated their perception of their learning; the patient …


Rural Families Choose Home-Based Child Care For Their Preschool-Aged Children, Kristin Smith Jul 2006

Rural Families Choose Home-Based Child Care For Their Preschool-Aged Children, Kristin Smith

Carsey Publications

This policy brief examines who is taking care of preschoolers of employed mothers in rural America. While most rural families choose home-based child care (such as relatives or informal nonrelated care providers), formal care (such as in day care centers) has positive benefits to a child's development. The brief recommends that programs are needed that either make formal care more affordable and accessible in rural communities, or that train home-based care providers to provide quality care.

Ddasaccident528, Hd-Aid Jul 2006

Ddasaccident528, Hd-Aid

Global CWD Repository

This accident classification is “Other” because there is not enough information to determine what was going on at the time. The primary cause of this accident is listed as “Other” because there is not enough information to determine any cause for the accident. The secondary cause is listed as a “Management control inadequacy” because the management of the demining group declined to make the accident details available. Although this is sometimes done to protect the Victims, in this case the Victims’ names were among the limited detail made available. It is possible that the managers have chosen to avoid transparency …

Does The Quality Of Training Programs Matter? Evidence From Bidding Processes Data, Alberto Chong, Jose Galdo Jul 2006

Does The Quality Of Training Programs Matter? Evidence From Bidding Processes Data, Alberto Chong, Jose Galdo

Economics - All Scholarship

We estimate the effect of training quality on earnings using a Peruvian program, which targets disadvantaged youths. The identification of causal effects is possible because of two attractive features in the data. First, selection of training courses is based on public bidding processes that assign standardized scores to multiple proxies for quality. Second, the evaluation framework allows for the identification and comparison of individuals in treatment and comparison groups six, 12, and 18 months after the program. Using difference-indifferences kernel matching methods, we find that individuals attending high-quality training courses have higher average and marginal treatment impacts. External validity was …
