Abstract:

This qualitative case study describes the disparate experiences of how three siblings reacted and were affected by their father's suicide death. Specifically, through individual interviews, this study explores the siblings' individual memories, emotions, and perceptions of support connected with the time directly before and after their father's death. In addition, the researchers considered the long-term effects of their father's death by suicide as lived by the sibling survivors. In seeking to understand the siblings' experiences, this study also explores each sibling's reaction as they were

Abstract:

Rural communities are by definition less densely populated and more geographically isolated than non-rural communities, which often translates into higher rates of poverty and poor access to health care, especially mental health care. Previous research has found that persons residing in rural communities endorse higher rates of stigmatized beliefs towards individuals with mental illness and subsequently lower rates of professional help-seeking when compared to persons residing in non-rural communities. This study evaluated whether these attitudes were also present among emerging adults (18-24

Abstract:

More than half of all the girls in India today are married before the age of 18. This derives from gender inequality and discrimination, which has lead to several health issues. At the same time, the Indian state has passed legislation prohibiting the practice of child marriage and made it possible for girls to void their marriages. The law gives the girls more empowerment even if they are minor, which poses some further issues related to age, consent and substantial freedom. The contradiction in the law’s implementation depends on a disparity between the state and customary laws as well as mo

Abstract:

Intelligibility is one of the major concerns among ESL learners due to its impact on their ability to communicate with native speakers of English (Derwing & Munro, 2005). Even though pronunciation is often addressed in classrooms, it is difficult to tackle all intelligibility issues relevant for each student. Therefore, it is crucial for ESL learners to spend some extra time outside of class improving their pronunciation. Faced with a daunting task of regulating and taking charge of their own learning, they often have questions with respect to what exactly they need to work on, what activities

Abstract:

Utilizing the theory of planned behavior, I examined the variables that affect Chinese individuals' help-seeking intention. A total of 251 Chinese individuals participated in this study. Results showed that the variables in the theory of planned behavior accounted for 16% of the variance in help-seeking intention. Specifically, attitude (r = .22, p < .001) and perceived behavioral control (r = .22, p < .001) were found to be significant predictors of help-seeking intention. Based on these results, mental health professionals can design outreach interventions, such as psychoeducational programs

Treatment outcome studies investigating potential treatments for panic disorder invariably begin with a lengthy assessment designed to determine whether a potential subject meets criteria for the disorder. Through the process of assessment, subject are usually given some form of feedback about their condition, if only to tell them they meet criteria to enter the study. Assessment and feedback are thought to have therapeutic effects and empirical evidence is beginning to document this (Bien, Miller, & Tonigan, 1993; Finn & Tonsager, 1992).

Abstract:

Background. Help-seeking is a concept of growing interest in the context of psychosis and the move towards early intervention and community-based service models. Despite a preponderance of first episode studies in this field, help-seeking is also of clinical relevance to adults with more chronic psychosis in the face of spiralling patterns of relapse and diminished recovery. Recent research into attachment theory opens up new avenues for exploring aspects of relating in psychosis, including help-seeking in mental health service contexts. Methods.

Abstract:

Background: Obesity rates are growing globally along with the associated health and economic consequences (Caballero, 2007). However, weight loss is difficult, highlighting the need to address the psychological challenges of obesity (Wing & Phelan, 2005). Obesity is linked with emotional eating (Torres & Nowson, 2007). Therefore, interventions which may tackle emotional eating may address obesity. This study evaluated the effectiveness of an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT; Hayes, Strosahl & Wilson, 1999) intervention which has been considered helpful for this clinical problem. Method:

Abstract:

Integruojant specialiųjų poreikių vaikus į bendrojo lavinimo mokyklą keičiasi mokykla, mokytojų gebėjimai, ugdymo programa, ugdymo proceso organizavimas, vaikų vertinimas. Todėl svarbu atskleisti bendrojo lavinimo mokyklos mokytojų požiūrį į specialiųjų poreikių vaikus bei turimas specialiojo darbo kompetencijas, išanalizuoti specialiųjų poreikių asmenų sutrikimų grupes ir jų laipsnius, palyginti miesto ir rajono mokyklų teikiamą pagalbą specialiųjų poreikių vaikams. Tyrimas atskleidė, kad bendrojo lavinimo mokyklos mokytojas su specialiųjų poreikių vaikais bendrauja kaip su visais vaikais. Sp

Abstract:

碩士<br>長庚大學<br>企業管理研究所<br>96<br>Abstract It is a very important issue that nurses have intentions to help coworkers in the health care management, because the primary goal of nursing is to improve patient safety and to lower failures. In that case, if nurses would give help to coworkers in the right time, it would help to improve healthcare efficiency, care quality, and give more fine caring to patients. There were some researches about the determinants of the intention of helping people, but there were fewer literatures that talked about people who is willing to help others affected by another

Abstract:

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)<br>In the fields of formal and informal online adult education, the absence of a social context for instruction has been found to present significant limitations for learner persistence and retention. In the field of online psychoeducational intervention, self-administered and self-paced individualized prevention programs have been developed for delivery to large populations of anonymous users. These delivery models provide limited social context for instructional activities, due in part to the anonymity of their participants. When s
