Abstract:

Landscape development[1] can provide many benefits, including the reduction of stormwater runoff and the creation of habitats for wildlife. It can also provide health benefits. Researchers, such as Roger Ulrich and Rita Berto have demonstrated that views of trees and other vegetation are associated with lower blood pressure and reduced recovery times in hospitals and that environments with more natural elements may lessen mental fatigue (R. Ulrich 1984) and (Berto 2005). As rebuilding in New Orleans continues 11 years after Hurricane Katrina, landscape development has been limited or lacking,

Abstract:

The scale-up of effective or efficacious public health interventions to prevent chronic disease is important if population wide impacts are to be achieved. However, scale-up is complex and doesn’t happen as often as it should. This is despite growing interest in the area of research translation and scale-up by researchers and policy makers and a plethora of conceptual frameworks developed to guide the scale-up of efficacious interventions. The objectives of this thesis are to understand how scale-up may be facilitated within a research translation framework as well as in the real-world by un

Abstract:

The claims of the traditional texts and teachers of Buddhist meditation include the enhancement of mental health. Twenty five meditators sitting a ten day retreat in Vipassana and Metta meditation were measured on a compassion scale and an androgyny index. The androgyny index was used to measure mental health. Compassion scores for all meditators increased slightly after the retreat. Experienced meditators had significantly higher scores than inexperienced meditators. Regardless of previous experience, meditators with high compassion scores significantly increased in androgyny after the retrea

Abstract:

This thesis addresses multi-scale approaches for improving food security with nutritional health. It argues that four key themes: scale, nutrition, trade, and governance are not given adequate attention in food security and nutrition studies. A multi-scale framework links the overriding thematic structure, bridges gaps, and enriches analysis. It facilitates a blended approach of analysis for food security and nutrition studies, public policy, and critical geography. Nutrition is at the centre of the inquiry and addresses the triple burden of malnutrition: hunger, micronutrient malnutrition, an

This study created and tested a measure of the attitudes of health care providers toward integrated health care (IHC). Phase one of this scale development involved contacting experts in IHC to rate the quality of the items and provide qualitative feedback regarding content of the measure. The instrument was further revised based on this expert feedback. The final phase of instrument development was a field test of the measure with a larger, more representative sample of Physicians, Nurses, and Psychologists.

Abstract:

<p> The Health Ontology Mapper (HOM) method is a proposed solution to the semantic gap problem. The HOM Method provides the following functionality to enable the scalable deployment of informatics systems involving data from multiple health systems. The HOM method allows a relatively small population of biomedical ontology experts to describe the interpretation and analysis of biomedical information collected at thousands of hospitals via a cloud based terminology server. As such the HOM Method is focused on the scalability of the human talent required for successful informatics projects.

The SF-36 scale is widely used to evaluate the quality of life among breast cancer patients, but provides an inadequate reflection of their quality of life; therefore, we aimed to set up a new scale, a breast cancer surgery quality of life (BCSQOL) scale and to assess its reliability and validity. The analysis review showed that 75% to 91% of surgically treated patients (59/79) found that the questionnaire items were an accurate reflection of their feelings and were clear. The validity coefficient analysis showed a highly correlated extent of commonality (alpha = 0.778) between BCSQOL a

Abstract:

The impact of acculturation and poor social support as potential risk factors for cardiovascular and metabolic disease amongst Mexican immigrants to the United States (U.S.) is a developing area of research. One theory is that acculturation to U.S. society is negatively associated with health due to the stress of immigration as well as the less healthy diet and lifestyle in the U.S. It is also theorized that positive social support is associated with better health during immigration due to the buffering effect relationships have on stress. Despite these theories, mixed findings have been found

Most have taken the form of educational and technical assistance, implemented specifically to stem emissions from the industry and introduce miners to safer practices. These interventions

College students in particular may be vulnerable to continual weight gain over the course of their 4-year education; a review by Hellmich (2008) revealed that many students gain between 6 and 9 pounds during their freshman year alone.

Abstract:

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior<br>Objetivou-se realizar a adaptaÃÃo transcultural da Health Belief Model Scale for Cervical Cancer and Pap Smear Test para uso no Brasil e validar o conteÃdo da versÃo brasileira do instrumento traduzido. Trata-se de um estudo metodolÃgico, que para a adaptaÃÃo transcultural, percorreu rigorosamente cinco etapas: traduÃÃo inicial, sÃntese das traduÃÃes, retraduÃÃo, revisÃo por um comitÃ de juÃzes e prÃ-teste. Os participantes dessas etapas foram selecionados obedecendo aos critÃrios estabelecidos pelo referencial metodolÃgico, quais s

Abstract:

This project explores handwriting legibility and pencil use tasks in 120 healthy older Australian adults, aged 60 to 99 years. A cross sectional study design was used. The aim of these studies was to explore if handwriting legibility or pencil use performance deteriorated as people aged. This is important to help therapists determine if handwriting difficulties following stroke, or other medical conditions, are more likely a consequence of condition-related impairments or due to ‘normal ageing’. Tasks performed under standardised test conditions included writing copied and self-composed sente

Abstract:

Heat driven adsorption cycles use heat sources ranging in temperature from 80 - 150 °C to provide cooling, and have been used in both air conditioning and refrigeration applications. Adsorbent heat pumps operate with low cost, simple components, and very little vibration, making them appealing as an alternative heat pump technology. However, they have been limited thus far to commercial and industrial scale applications. To date, adsorption systems have predominantly used natural or industrial waste streams as heat sources in the 10s of kW range. This work expands the scope of adsorption appli

Abstract:

Although the debate regarding the nature and structure of psychological well-being is ongoing (see Compton, 2001; Forgeard, Jayawickreme, Kern & Seligman, 2011; Kashdan, Biswas-Diener & King, 2008; Keyes, 2002; Kopperud & Vitterso, 2008; Lent, 2004; Linley, Maltby, Wood, Osborne & Hurling, 2009; Ryan & Deci, 2001; Ryff & Singer, 1998; Wissing & Temane, 2008; Wissing & Van Eeden, 2002), there has been sufficient support for more holistic, complex and inclusive models to explain and measure psychological well-being.
