Abstract:
Despite the education, autonomy, and high demand for physical therapists both nationally and in Florida, recent graduates have seen steadily rising education costs with disproportionate changes in income once they have graduated and entered the workforce. The growing debt burden of physical therapists entering the workforce, coupled with the growth in projected need and stagnant wages, raises concern about where and how entry-level physical therapists will practice and if these choices will be affected by their debt burden. The purpose of this quantitative, cross-sectional survey study was to

Abstract:
Introduction: Dementia refers to impairments of memory and other cognitive functions with consequent decline in activities of daily living. Besides cognitive symptoms, demented patients can also exhibit behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), which are stressors leading to family caregivers’ burden. Physical activity may give rise to benefits in cognitive function, and may reduce behavioral symptoms and caregivers’ burden. However, most previous studies were reported from Caucasian populations. There was no previous report on the relationship of physical activity in dementi

Abstract:
Regular physical activity reduces the risk of many chronic diseases. Consequently, the promotion of it and particular types (e.g. walking and cycling for travel), have become a priority for governments seeking to improve health and constrain rising demand on health services. Despite this many uncertainties persist. The aim of this thesis is to address two particular areas of uncertainty: a) the association of walking and cycling for travel with indices of health and well-being; b) and the extent to which increases in physical activity will reduce need for health and social care.

Abstract:
Section A provides an overview of the literature investigating the relationship between parental mental health and child physical health within populations of children with chronic childhood illness. Evidence for whether this relationship definitively exists, as well as the potential pathways through which this relationship could operate, is evaluated. Carers of children with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) can experience burden and psychological distress, which has been shown to impact on the child's physical health. Section B is an empirical study aiming to assess the validity and reliability o

Abstract:
Caregivers (CG) often neglect their own self-care which may have deleterious effects if CG have a chronic illness, such as diabetes. Care demands have been linked to CG health, although the mechanisms are unclear. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships of CG stress, depressive symptoms, and diabetes self-care practices on CG physical health (PH) and glycemic control (GC) in an underrepresented group of Hispanic CG with diabetes. A correlational design was used in a non-random sample of 42 Hispanic CG with diabetes (Type I or II) recruited from two health centers serving th

Abstract:
Background Middle-income countries are currently undergoing nutrition transition more rapidly than did high income countries. These populations are therefore at high risk of over-nutrition (obesity) and nutrition-related, non-communicable diseases before the elimination of under-nutrition and infectious diseases. Such nutritional double burden is most common in low SES groups of middle-income countries, such as the Maya of Mexico. Long-term poor environmental conditions during early life results in a population with high levels of chronic under-nutrition (stunting), and a consequent predisposi
