Nearly three decades of research evaluating the impact family structure on health and well-being children demonstrates that living with their married, biological parents consistently have better physical, emotional, academic well-being. Pediatricians society should promote has best chance producing healthy children. The scientific literature to date suggests that, exception faced unresolvable marital violence, fare when work at maintaining marriage. Consequently, make every effort support...
Semantic priming effects (behavioral and electrophysiological) were compared in the visual auditory modalities across three stimulus onset asynchronies (SOAs; 0, 200, 800 ms). When both prime target presented modality (the just to left of a fixation point right), there N400 present SOAs. However, 0-ms SOA condition extended longer time (800 vs. 500 ms) than other right ear left), largest found for 800-ms SOA. Moreover, was relatively early effect 0- conditions but not 200-ms condition. The...
In two experiments, the time-course of behavioural and electrophysiological measures semantic priming were examined between visual auditory modalities. Experiment 1, targets (words pseudowords) paired with prime words that onset either simultaneously target (0 msec stimulus asynchrony, SOA) or at one delays (200 800 SOA). Subjects made speeded lexical decisions to targets. Large effects found across three SOAs for reaction time N400 effect (the difference related unrelated words). 2, primes...
Abstract To explore whether parental report of frequency problematic sleep behaviours overestimates the subjective experience problems among co‐sleepers, and classification as reactive or intentional co‐sleeping is related to judgments about children's sleep, 139 parents young children were recruited from urban paediatric offices. The Child Sleep Behaviour Survey asked potentially behaviours, yielded a simple score (frequency all items) weighted (only considered by parent). Parents described...
The efficacies of 2 group counseling step-up treatments for smoking cessation, cognitive-behavioral/skill training therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing/supportive (MIS) therapy, were compared with brief intervention (BI) treatment in a sample 677 smokers. Differential efficacy the was also tested smokers at low high risk relapse (no vs. any during first postquit week. respectively). All participants received 8 weeks nicotine patch therapy. BI consisted 3 individual cessation sessions;...
Abstract Few studies have focused on language processing across modalities. Two experiments examined between‐modality interactions three prime–target intervals (0, 200, and 800 ms) in a cross‐modal repetition priming paradigm. Event‐related potentials were recorded to auditory targets following visual primes (Experiment 1) or 2). In Experiment 1 robust effects found for as early 100 ms, continued through the N400 epoch. Moreover, these visual–auditory large all although they onset 200 ms...
Scalp cooling with gel packs was used to try prevent alopecia in 31 patients being treated doxorubicin (Adriamycin), 29 for advanced breast carcinoma and two carcinoid tumour. Twenty-eight of the tolerated procedure well, 22 these had either no hair loss or only slight which remained acceptable did not require a wig. The main factor limiting success biochemical impairment liver function, occurred nine patients; these, six severe total despite scalp cooling. Conversely, technique successful...
In this study, 675 general medicine admissions at a university teaching hospital were reviewed to evaluate six potential generic quality screens: 1) in-hospital death; 2) 28-day early readmission; 3) low patient satisfaction; 4) worsening severity of illness (as determined by an increase in Laboratory Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation APACHE-L); 5) deviations from expected length stay; 6) ancillary resource use. The care for stratified random sample evaluated using structured...
1. With ever-increasing cost containment, patients are being discharged from the hospital earlier. 2. The majority (96%) of elderly (average age 70 years) in this study, after abdominal and cardiac surgery, thought they were ready to be discharged. 3. Surgical patients' level functional ability was significantly improved predischarge postdischarge. There no significant differences their pain, strength, knowledge, mood levels. 4. Predominantly non-nursing functions (eg, transportation,...
Autoerythrocyte sensitization (psychogenic purpura) is an unusual diagnosis, but one that has a characteristic dermatologic manifestation of painful bruising. A typical case presented, as well review the literature. Treatment consists psychiatric therapy, which most effective when initiated early in disease, so diagnosis will not only minimize cost medical evaluation also benefit patient.
Many have studied Roman Catholic clergy who sexually abused children, but the range of investigations remains disconnected. This article brings together various disciplinary perspectives to form a comprehensive view. A review literature is first undertaken comprehend how offenders been conceptualized in psychosocial, sociocultural, and moral-religious studies. These are then used as foundation for examining these can be rehabilitated. Three rehabilitative modalities—psychological treatment,...
The Integrated Inpatient Management Model was a 2.5-year controlled prospective trial of using clinical information system to direct and monitor physician hospital practice on general medicine services an 880-bed university hospital. For the over 2,000 admissions both control service intervention service, mean length stay (LOS) decreased when compared with historic norms (0.68 0.95 days respectively; P < 0.01 for both). This difference in LOS represents savings 580 service; (95% confidence...
Summary Two cases are described who developed epileptic seizures whilst taking maprotiline hydrochloride in therapeutic dosage. In both the electroencephalogram was normal and fits stopped on withdrawal of drug.
This article uses feminist theory to investigate how the socialization processes used maintain clergy community in Roman Catholic Church contributes a vulnerability some for sexually abusing children. is identified first an examination of literature on impact offenders between 1960s and 1980s. A comparison then made with implications apostolic exhortation, Pastores Dabo Vobis, which provides theological basis formation. The argues that document works ensure continuity not only have been...
