Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to investigate the perceived anxiety experienced by coronary care nurses working eight- and 12-hour work shifts. It was hypothesized that length of shift work affects the before- and after-shift anxiety for nurses working eight or 12-hour work shifts. Anxiety differences between the eight- and 12-hour work shifts were examined as well as differences between the before- and after-shift anxiety for each length of shift.Thirty-two (32) coronary care nurses from a general medical and surgical hospital in the Midwest volunteered to participate in the research.

Abstract:
Damage to the brain can affect the core of the individual, i.e. the self. Results from a small number of studies with amnesic individuals indicate that patients' ability to show preserved knowledge of self may vary. The present study explored self-knowledge in patients with memory impairment as a result of confabulation, mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease and acquired brain damage. We found that different memory disorders differentially affected patients' self-knowledge. At least some patients showed a preserved sense of self, and were able to acquire information about another

This thesis presents experiments investigating the cognitive neuropsychological mechanisms underlying anosognosia for motor deficit, i. e. lack of awareness or underestimation of a deficit in motor functioning following brain injury. Two contemporary explanations of anosognosia were considered. First, an account based on the Somatic Marker Hypothesis (SMH; Damasio, 1994), which suggests that anosognosia might be explained by emotional disturbance leading to irrational reports regarding motor deficits, via an impairment in somatic feedback to the brain.

<p> Within the United States, HIV is a growing epidemic that has important neuropsychological and functional consequences. Early detection and treatment of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) is associated with better outcomes.

For those individuals who are primarily Spanish-speakers, there may be limited access to comprehensive neuropsychological assessment in the preferred language.

Abstract:
Neuropsychologists are increasingly asked to determine whether a patient may be malingering symptoms of a mild closed head injury. This issue is particularly salient within the context of civil litigation and the potential of significant financial awards. Patients' performances on neuropsychological tests have historically been assumed to accurately reflect their abilities and deficits. Optimal motivation and performance cannot be automatically assumed within the context of litigation. Moreover, comorbid anxiety and depression are frequently present in head injury patients and adversely affect

Abstract:
Complex cognitive functions require interactions within and between different brain regions by direct anatomical connections or synchronous activation. As such, damage to any region involved in a cognitive process has the potential to affect its function. Impulsivity is a multifaceted construct that, when dysfunctional, contributes to many psychiatric conditions. The striatum has been implicated as an integral part of the neural circuitry of impulsivity. The current work aims to contribute to the understanding of neural dysfunction underlying disorders of impulsivity by examining how striatal

Abstract:
The demographic transition experienced, principally, by emerging countries has resulted in changes in the age and population structure. In this sense, it is perceived that the countryside is undergoing complex changes, because often the elderly remain alone, without the support of children and families. Thus, the elderly had developed ways to take care of themselves, which those need to be studied by nursing area. This study research the question: "How is the self-care of elderly participants of the third age groups in the rural areas?" and objectively describe the self-care of elderly partici

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo central avaliar o percurso da ação pública nos assentamentos urbanos informais do Município de São Paulo, compreendendo as intervenções em favelas e a produção alternativa de moradias, através de mutirão e autoconstrução, no período de 1979 1994. Esse período corresponde à existência do Fundo de Atendimento à População Moradora em Habitação Subnormal FUNAPS, um fundo municipal criado com objetivo de financiar as intervenções no universo das moradias sub-normais, assim entendidas as habitações que, a critério da Prefeitura, fossem destituídas das condiçõe

Abstract:
Excess of arsenic in groundwater is a worldwide problem threatening the health of the millions of people directly exposed to Arsenic-rich water intake. The problem is particularly acute in naturally occurring unconsolidated aquifers where Arsenic-rich groundwater is an easily accessible resource of drinking water, such arsenic in India, Bangladesh and Vietnam. In Italy, arsenic is found in aquifers from north to south and it is associated to different geological settings (i.e. volcanic areas and alluvial plains). The shallow aquifer of Venetian Alluvial Plain (VAP) is notoriously affected by a

En amont du développement de complications neurologiques sévères telles que le syndrome de Korsakoff (SK), les patients présentant un Trouble de l’Usage d’Alcool (TUAL) présentent des altérations cérébrales et cognitives de nature et de sévérité variables, ainsi que des troubles du sommeil. Bien qu’il soit clairement établi que le sommeil contribue au fonctionnement cérébral et cognitif, son implication comme facteur explicatif des atteintes cérébrales et cognitives dans le TUAL reste peu documentée.

<p>Syftet med den här studien är att beskriva processen som leder från utbrändhet till en ny vardag; en process som här benämns ”vägen tillbaka”. Studien är kvalitativ i sin karaktär och utgår från intervjuer med sex personer som erfarit utbrändhet. Vidare belyses de faktorer som informanterna upplever har bidragit till att de ”kommit tillbaka”, de hinder som försvårat i ”vägen tillbaka” samt hur identitet och självbild påverkats i processen. Uppsatsen utgår från ett fenomenologiskt perspektiv, bestående av både teori och metod. Inom perspektivet anses människors upplevelser vara centrala. Dat

Abstract:
O presente estudo examina as relações entre autocuidado e envelhecimento, nas narrativas de idosos favelados da cidade de São Paulo. Trata-se de estudo qualitativo no qual se investigou as formas de autocuidado adotadas pelos entrevistados, com ênfase na relação com os serviços de saúde. Defende-se que o autocuidado não pode ser compreendido como simples adoção de saberes técnicos para a promoção da saúde, mas como uma atitude prática, relacionada à experiência de envelhecer, às condições de vida e às interações familiar e comunitária. Propõe-se a necessidade de resistir à tendência de respons
