Abstract:
This thesis is an evaluation of mental handicap registers as planning tools and is based on a national postal survey and semi-structured interviews with register-operators. Registers have emerged from pressure for greater rationality in planning the health and social services, a co-ordinated approach to priority groups, and a radical change in attitude to mental handicap. Mental handicap registers are found to be organisationally, financially and morally feasible. Moreover they can develop naturally as by-products of Community Mental Handicap Teams, thereby significantly reducing the costs of data-collection. Registers provide a basis for service-planning which is more objective and takes account of more of the users of the service than the opinions of experienced professionals. Names, addresses, dates of birth and details of services used can make a considerable contribution to planning. In addition, some indicator of the services that subjects need is required. Register-operators tend to regard the widely-used Wessex Behaviour Rating System as a crude measure and hanker after a more direct assessment of need such as might be made at a multi-disciplinary review. Most registers hold identifying and service-details of their subjects; however there are a number of registers holding in addition a large amount of information for which there is little demand in planning. The data which registers have held have not been fully exploited partly because they have not been sufficiently closely linked to the planning process and the methods of planning have not been sufficiently receptive to quantitative data. Other statistical client-based data-bases for service-planning run the risk of similar neglect by decision-makers unless vigorous efforts are made to promote their use.

Abstract:
Learning - the process by which new skills and behaviours are acquired - is a central concept in the understanding of mental handicap. Discrimination learning Is specifically identified as an essential pre-requlslte for the acquisition of a variety of more complex behaviours and skills. Many studies have reported that severely mentally handicapped persons show a relative inability to profit from unstructured learning experiences, and frequently fail to learn discriminations trained through simple differential reinforcement (trial-and-error training). Programmed training procedures are identified as important vehicles to facilitate the discrimination learning of severely mentally handicapped children. An initial study is reported that confirms the superiority of programmed over trial-and-error discrimination training, and demonstrates this superiority is maintained over a series of similar discrimination tasks. The results also demonstrate that stimulus fading procedures can be successfully implemented using micro-computer technology, and that 'errorless' learning can be effected through the sequencing and fading of trainer prompts. However, programmed procedures are not invariably effective in teaching discriminations to developmentally impaired persons, and failures to learn following programmed training are not infrequently reported. In a series of studies, some of the basic procedural parameters underlying diverse programmed techniques were evaluated as determinants of the development (or lack of development) of appropriate stimulus controL Increasing the salience of S+, whether through manipulation of S+ or S-, was shown to be more effective than increasing the salience of S-. Further, congruence between prompt and training cue dimensions was shown to be a significant variable affecting the outcome of training. The effectiveness of programmed procedures was also shown to interact with task difficulty. Finally, wide individual differences in learning within the population of severely mentally handicapped persons have frequently been reported, and were also observed in the present research. In a final study, individual differences in some basic cognitive abilities and aspects of classroom behaviour were assessed and shown to be significantly correlated with discrimination performance. The results are related to the literature on compound conditioning (e.g., Kamin, 1968) and theories of discrimination learning (Terrace, 1966; Rescorla & Wagner, 1972; Zeaman and House, 1963, 1979), and suggest the importance of attentlonal processes in discrimination learning. Lastly, some educational implications of the results are discussed.

Abstract:
The horticulture industry offers numerous unskilled and semi-Skilled job opportunities for qualified handicapped individuals. A mail survey of 557 private Virginia ornamental horticultural businesses was conducted to document the employment of handicapped persons and to investigate employers' perceptions of mentally handicapped workers. A response rate of 60% was obtained. Forty-two percent of the respondents reported employing mentally, physically or emotionally handicapped persons. Primary businesses which have employed mentally handicapped workers were associated with grounds maintenance, nursery/garden centers, and golf courses. Overall the employers' perceptions were favorable of the general work habits and entry-level horticultural skill competencies of mentally handicapped persons. This indicated a potential for employment

Abstract:
This chapter describes the arrest and conviction rates of the index and control groups. The data are consistent with the differential detection and differential reaction hypotheses: index respondents reported more successful offenses (i.e., offenses that did not end in arrest or conviction) than controls. Then, building upon the US Supreme Court’s logic in Atkins v. Virginia (prohibiting the execution of mentally retarded defendants), it explores the culpability of high-IQ offenders. Noting that people with genius-level IQ scores are as statistically abnormal as the mentally handicapped defendants protected under Atkins, it asks whether criminal geniuses, vis-à-vis normal offenders, are equally, less, or more culpable. If it is true that people separated by thirty IQ points cannot communicate meaningfully, gifted defendants might be functionally insane because of social isolation. The chapter also describes several challenges associated with punishing high-IQ offenders.

Abstract:
The aging population is vulnerable to various illnesses and health conditions because with increase in age the people suffer from chronic disease. Quite often, they are partially handicapped due to their restricted mobility and their reduced mental abilities. To resolve these problems, health monitoring systems are designed for real-time monitoring of patients. WBAN use medical sensors for acquiring patient physiological data with wireless technologies to send data to healthcare providers. Due to wireless transmission, the chances of attacking and occurring security issues in the data are more. So, the security of the system is the main concern because the system consists of patient privacy concerns. Due to these reasons there is need of designing security algorithms to prevent data from being stolen by attackers. The aim of this chapter is to present a review of different attacks that occurred during transmission of data and security issues related to data. The chapter also describes different algorithms to prevent data from being stolen through various attacks and security issues.
