Abstract:

Unit nonresponse in panel data sets is often a source of bias. Why certain individuals attrite from longitudinal studies and how to minimize this phenomenon have been examined by researchers. However, this research has typically focused on data sets collected via telephone, postal mail, or face-to-face interviews. Moreover, this research usually focuses on using demographic characteristics such as educational attainment or income to explain variation in the incidence of unit nonresponse. We make two contributions to the existing literature. First, we examine the incidence of unit nonresponse in an Internet panel, a relatively new, and hence understudied, approach to gathering longitudinal data. Second, we hypothesize that personality traits, which typically remain unobserved and unmeasured in many data sets, affect the likelihood of unit nonresponse. Using data from an Internet panel that includes self-reported measures of personality in its baseline survey, we find that conscientiousness and openness to experience predict the incidence of unit nonresponse in subsequent survey waves, even after controlling for cognitive ability and demographic characteristics that are usually available and used by researchers to correct for unit nonresponse. We also test the potential to use paradata as proxies for personality traits related to unit nonresponse. Although we show that these proxies are correlated with personality traits and predict unit nonresponse in the same way as self-reported measures of personality traits, it is also possible that they capture other idiosyncrasies related to future survey completion. Our results suggest that obtaining explicit measures of personality traits or finding better proxies for them could be valuable for more fully addressing the potential bias that may arise as a result of unit nonresponse.

Abstract:

Abstract Social insect colonies and the workers comprising them, each exhibit consistent individual differences in behavior, also known as ‘personalities’. Because the behavior of social insect colonies emerges from the actions of their workers, individual variation among workers’ personality may be important in determining the variation we observe among colonies. The reproductive unit of social insects, on which natural selection acts, is the colony, not individual workers. Therefore, it is important to understand what mechanisms govern the observed variation among colonies. Here I propose three hypotheses that address how consistent individual differences in the behavior of workers may lead to consistent individual differences in the behavior of colonies: 1. Colonies differ consistently in their average of worker personality; 2. The distribution but not the average of worker personalities varies consistently among colonies; and 3. Colony personality does not emerge from its worker personality composition but from consistent external constraints. I review evidence supporting each of these hypotheses and suggest methods to further investigate them. The study of how colony personality emerges from the personalities of the workers comprising them may shed light on the mechanisms underlying consistent individual differences in the behavior of other animals.

Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore the range of personality disorder diagnoses and levels of psychopathy as assessed by the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R) associated with treatment discontinuation in a sample of adult male prisoners. Design/methodology/approach – Data from 92 male offenders in a high secure prison personality disorder treatment unit was analysed. PCL-R and personality disorder diagnoses were predicted as being related to increased treatment dropout. Findings – Having a diagnosis of narcissistic personality disorder was related to treatment dropout, but PCL-R total scores were not. There was a trend for a diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder being associated with remaining in treatment. Research limitations/implications – The current study highlights that narcissistic personality disorder can be associated with treatment dropout, warranting further exploration as to why this is the case. Practical implications – Managing responsivity issues for those presenting with a personality disorder diagnosis could be effective in maximising treatment engagement from this specific offender group. Originality/value – Although treatment dropout has been explored previously, this is the first study to explore treatment dropout at a specialised unit designed specifically to provide treatment for this client group.

Abstract:

Introduction.The In-patient units are very closed and highly controlled healthcare resource and then patients have to join the community rapidly, and in sometimes feeling unprotected and with their needs non covered. We created a transition unit with a program of psychotherapeutic intervention, to offer an adequate transition between the acute episode and the incorporation to the community.Objective.We describe the characteristics of the psychotherapeutic group, the aims and the results of the interventions.Methods.Psychotherapeutic transition unit was created to offer intensive attention and control demand that is not possible to control in the community. The objects are to prevent re-admissions and relapse because of abandonment of treatment in patient with personality disorder and suicide attempts, and first episode, affective or psychotic. Patients are selected from the in-patients unit with inclusion criteria, and start going from the unit before discharge. The intervention is once per week, with a duration between 60–90 minutes. There is not a number of sessions, and we have approximately 10 patients per sessions.Results.Since the beginning of the psychotherapeutic interventions, re-admissions have been decreased in patients with diagnosis of personality disorder (most histrionic and borderline disorder) with multiple admissions because of suicide attempt, some had been discharged. In another group of patient we have prevented relapses.Conclusions.Psychotherapeutic interventions will be effective in patients with high risk of re-admissions and relapses. It is early to have solid conclusions, but the preliminary results encourage the continuation of the program.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:

SummaryI present a rationale for two different types of in-patient child psychiatric unit: 24/7 intensive units and 24/5 child and family units. Intensive units address safety requirements. The developing personality of young people is at the centre of in-patient approaches on the child and family units. This requires attachment-informed practice. Families must always be involved and placement of units must facilitate their participation. The primary skill characterising these units is use of the milieu for therapy and combining this with family therapy. In other words, nurses and allied professionals need to be the dominant force in unit development, under the reflective guidance of consultants and clinical psychologists.

Abstract:

Purpose - This study conceptualizes the measuring effect of brand personality along with its five dimensions on brand loyalty with the help of customer satisfaction played the role of mediation among the users of Samsung cell-phones. Design/MethodologyApproach - The study was in quantitative nature. Data was collected from 418 respondents from the different cities of Sindh like Karachi, Hyderabad, Mirpurkhas, and Sukkur through a survey questionnaire, and data was analyzed through smart PLS Software by applying the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique. Findings - The findings executed that the keeping in view all other things constant one unit change in brand personality cause a change of 0.919 in customer satisfaction, one unit change in brand personality cause a change of 0.879 in brand loyalty and one unit change in customer satisfaction will cause a change of 0.095 in brand loyalty. As the results suggest that the brand personality has a positive strong relation with brand loyalty directly, here customer satisfaction has played the role of partial mediator between brand personality and brand loyalty at very weak relations with brand loyalty. Thus increasing error is at the minimum position because all the values are lying on the positive axis. Practical Implications - This study strongly assists marketers to improve customer loyalty strategies. This study has figured out the clear picture for marketers that if the customers perceive highly based on brand personality so it would be nice for marketers to strengthen the brand personality attributes for brand loyalty. Origionality/Value - This study is not only emphasized the brand personality but also put an in-depth eye on customer satisfaction. In this study, customer satisfaction played a partial mediating role because of the positive and strong relationship found between brand personality and brand loyalty.

Abstract:

Few studies have examined the personality traits of nurses, and none identified the personality traits of float pool nurses. Float pool nurses have specific personality traits that differ from unit-based nurses. Independence, Tough-Mindedness, Rule Consciousness, Social Boldness, Openness to Change, and Tension were six personality factors that were found to be statistically significantly different. As hospitals implement float pools or resource teams to meet staffing needs, gleaning insight into the specific personality traits of these individuals could assist in nurse recruitment and retention.

Abstract:

IntroductionThe Oswin unit located in the North East of England is commissioned primarily for offenders screened on the offender personality disorder (OPD) pathway based on measures of personality disorder being linked to moderate to high risks to other persons.ObjectivesThe Oswin Unit was re-designed in early 2014 meeting commissioning specifications to meet objectives based on access, measuring quality and reducing. The primary objective of this pathway is to ensure personality Disorder offenders have access to “community-to-community”, joint-up care and monitoring of risks. The Oswin unit implemented a re-designed service offering individuals formulation based assessments and risk management embedded in the OPD pathway. The overall objective of this project is to evaluate the effectiveness and risk amelioration of this hospital-based service.AimAs part of a broader service development and evaluation project, the cost-effectiveness of the current model of the unit was compared to that of the unit prior to the redesign of the service.MethodCollection of data on number of admission and length of stay and calculation of expenses per capita. Retrospective analysis of costs of care.ResultsAnalysis of comparative figures post-implementation of this new model of care found 41% more episodes of care. Cost-analysis indicated a saving of £200,000.ConclusionThe new Oswin Model meets commissioning objectives in offering access to hospital-based care and focused treatments for prisoners ‘stuck’ in prison pathways. This finding led to further investigation using thematic measures of quality of care to evaluate the effectiveness of this service and risk amelioration.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:

IntroductionComorbidity between Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and other psychiatric disorders, known as Dual Diagnosis, is an issue of growing interest in Mental Health. The high association between Personality Disorders (PD) and substance use is reported in scientific literature. However, not many studies have been published regarding the prevalence of this disorder in a psychiatric unit. AIMSTo determine the prevalence of substance abuse among patients with a Personality Disorder in a psychiatric unit.MethodologyA retrospective descriptive study was carried out among all patients admitted to our psychiatric unit during one year. The data collected from the discharge clinical records of patients were: demographic variables, personal psychiatric history and substance use, urine tests and clinical diagnoses at discharge.ResultsWe obtained a sample of 334 patients. There was comorbidity between Mental Disorder and SUD in 10.17% of subjects; including 4% diagnosed with Personality Disorder (80% belong to Cluster B). 53.3% of patients with PD substance abuse was reported. Excluding nicotine dependence and benzodiazepines, the most common substances used were cannabis (50%), alcohol (37.5%) and cocaine (25%).ConclusionsThis study shows that Personality Disorder is the Mental Disorder most commonly associated with SUD, among inpatients in our psychiatric unit. In order to detect cases of Dual Diagnosis, we suggest optimize recording in clinical history substance use and systematic urine tests in all patients admitted, which would benefit from specific treatment for their condition.

Patient satisfaction is an indicator of effective service provision and may influence compliance with treatment. Of 265 patients attending a specialised mood disorders unit and surveyed at least two years after their initial contact, 221 (83%) replied. Characteristics of responders and non-responders were compared on demographic and clinical information from index assessment and follow-up. Sixty-four percent of responders were very satisfied and 21% partly satisfied with their management. Components of satisfaction included perceived competence of clinical management; the unit's administrative and after-treatment accessibility; and the support of staff and other patients. Those with a more adequate personality and melancholic depression at baseline assessment were more satisfied. A low current mood state at time of survey was associated with lower satisfaction in non-melancholies only. There were interactions between improvement in condition, diagnosis, personality and satisfaction. The survey provided a framework for formulating treatment programmes and was a useful quality assurance tool.

The sample consisted of 203 employees from three units of Sesa Goa Ltd., a leading mining company in Goa. Three reliable and valid tools were employed for the assessment-Organizational Citizenship Behaviour, NEO Five Factor Inventory and Leadership Effectiveness scale. Results of correlation analysis indicated positive correlation between leadership (all dimensions) and OCB. Of five personality factors, extraversion, agreeableness and conscientiousness showed positive correlation while neuroticism was found to be negatively correlated with OCB. Furthermore, result of regression analysis unveiled that 18% variance in OCB is contributed by leadership and 11% by personality. Unit wise differences were also evident in OCB. An incidental analysis using One Way ANOVA and t test revealed significant influence of organizational tenure and educational level on OCB. No significant difference was noticed on leadership and any of its dimensions. This study provides guidelines to aid managers better understand how to enhance OCB.

Abstract:

Through a survey-based study of 761 franchisees from four countries, the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Spain – this research examines how a franchisee’s entrepreneurial personality traits affects the financial and relational performance of franchise units. While there is consensus that franchisee characteristics are important for successful franchise networks, there is a long-standing debate within the franchise literature as to the status, and indeed desirability, of franchisees as entrepreneurs. First, we consider how the personality traits of proactivity, innovativeness and locus of control influence the manifestation of entrepreneurial behaviours within the franchise unit, and both the direct and indirect relationships with unit performance. Second, we explore these relationships in two contexts, one associated with high entrepreneurial values (the United States and the United Kingdom) and another with low entrepreneurial values (France and Spain) to determine if the results are consistent across cultures which value entrepreneurship differently. The results suggest that franchisee performance, in terms of both financial performance and relationship quality, are indirectly enhanced by a proactive disposition, mediated by entrepreneurial behaviours. A direct positive relationship was found between locus of control and performance outcomes, but interestingly, franchisees with more innovative personalities performed less well financially. The relationships between franchisee personality, entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and performance were found to be largely consistent across the two cultural groups.

Decisions on whether or not to admit were based on a multidisciplinary discussion informed by these assessments.ResultsOf the 89 comprehensively assessed referrals, 60 (67%) were offered admission. High scores on the Psychopathy Checklist–Revised (especially on Factor 1) was the only measure that was associated with rejection. Of 44 patients discharged, 29 (66%) failed to complete treatment; none of the pre-admission assessments distinguished ‘completers' from ‘non-completers'. Although skills were acquired on the unit, follow-up of 24 men in the community showed that this had only a marginal effect on re-offending rate (58%).ConclusionsCurrent recommended assessment methods appear unsatisfactory in identifying those who either (a) complete treatment or (b) benefit from treatment. Our results throw doubt on their value.

Abstract:

Patterns of adaptation to conflict were explored with the Serial Color-Word Test, and personality disorders were assessed by means of the Coolidge Axis II Inventory in a group of 76 nonpsychotic women volunteers in the age range 18–50 yr. ( M = 29.1 yr., SD = 8.3), who attended a psychiatric outpatients unit. Forward multiple regression analyses were performed to investigate whether patterns of adaptation were associated with personality disorders. 10 out of 13 personality scales, as measured by the Coolidge Axis II Inventory, were significantly predicted by adaptive variables. Some predictors were positive and others were negative. The variable RAD was a negative predictor of avoidant and dependent personalities. And a positive predictor of Extraversion, Aggressive personality, and Antisocial personality; this finding suggests that RAD may represent the regulative counterpart of a continuum from passive Introversion to aggressive extraversion. The results encourage further research on non-trait laboratory correlates of personality disorders.

Abstract:

This paper is devoted to the theme of spiritual experience in the works of the Russian philosopher I.A. Ilyin. The books of this thinker emphasize that spiritual experience is subjective, unique and individual, which determines the personality in a person. These ideas are consistent with the fact that a feature of the religious worldview is the formation of the concept of personality. Meanwhile, for the post-industrial and information society, the factors that shape a person's personality are very important, especially in the modern world, where functional unit of social relations is a single person.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT: This paper investigates business unit (BU) controllers’ inclination to engage in the creation of budgetary slack. In particular, we explore whether controllers who are involved in BU decision making are more susceptible to social pressure to engage in slack creation than controllers who are not. We expect, and find, a crucial role of the controller’s personality. Results from an experiment among 136 management accountants suggest that the personality construct Machiavellianism interacts with involvement to explain controllers’ responses to social pressure to create budgetary slack. Controllers scoring high on Machiavellianism are more likely to give in to pressure by BU management to create budgetary slack when they have been involved in decision making. In contrast, controllers scoring low on Machiavellianism are less likely to give in to pressure to create slack when they have been involved in decision making.

Abstract:

Specialist treatment centres, such as the Mood Disorders Unit (MDU) at Prince Henry Hospital, Sydney, have developed in response to the high prevalence of mood disorders and their frequent persistence and treatment resistance. The MDU's assessment and treatment of patients from state-wide catchment area and its teaching and research effectiveness are reviewed. Of 479 patients assessed between 1985 and 1989, there were 304 with primary depressive disorders, of whom 154 were followed up by clinical assessment at 52 weeks and 231 by telephone interview at 3 1/2 years. At intake, 59% were tertiary referral patients and 88% were from outside the local area. Two-thirds were recovered 3 1/2 years later, despite the disorders having been generally severe and protracted. Treatment modality was associated primarily with diagnosis, but also with age and somewhat with the patient's personality and consultant psychiatrists' preferences. No consistent predictors of outcome were discerned. Specialist tertiary referral centres, such as the MDU, contribute significantly to treatment success, especially of difficult cases, and enrich teaching and research.

Abstract:

Aims and methodCommunity treatment for individuals with personality disorder is a fast developing field. We report here on the effectiveness of one such approach. We examine the referral pathway of all clients between January 2005 and April 2008, including the mean days spent in our unit, the days spent in a psychiatric hospital before and after admission to our unit, and the results of changes in the rating scales we routinely use.ResultsDrop-out rates and the mean duration of therapy were acceptable. There has been a clear reduction of in-patient bed use and a small but significant improvement of most psychometric test results.Clinical implicationsThis study provides further evidence for the effectiveness of community treatment for individuals with personality disorder.

Abstract:

The article analyses legal materials concerning the legal personality of the Commonwealth of Australia under domestic law. It argues that the Commonwealth as legal person has an existence, as a unit of the legal system, which is conceptually distinct from the Commonwealth of Australia as a nation, and the Commonwealth as federal government of that nation. Current idioms (eg ‘polity’ and ‘body politic’) have a tendency to confuse these distinctions. The article suggests, as a more appropriate way to denote the Commonwealth as legal person, the term ‘constitutional person’.

Abstract:

We explored the relationship between psychiatric diagnosis and the presence of stuffed animals at the bedside in a population of adult female psychiatric inpatients. One of the authors made approximately weekly surveys of the wardrooms of adult psychiatric inpatients over twelve months for the presence of displayed stuffed animals. The observer was blind to the diagnosis of 80% of the patients, and the study or its hypothesis was not known to other physicians. The discharge diagnoses of patients displaying stuffed animals were recorded and compared with those of the ward population in general. Among 36 female patients who displayed stuffed animals in their rooms, Borderline Personality Disorder was diagnosed in 22 (61%) of these patients. Of 447 adult female patients admitted to the same unit over the same period, only 17% were noted to be diagnosed Borderline Personality Disorder. Stuffed animals as a bedside clinical clue may suggest evaluation for Borderline Personality Disorder.

Abstract:

AbstractIntensive Care Units (ICU) medical staff is frequently subject of great amount of psychological and physical occupational pressure. There are three main sources of pressure: professional responsability for the medical act, organizational requirements and interpersonal/intrapersonal relationships. Materials and method: The paper presents a study on the multidimensional diagnosis of occupational pressure/stress perception of the medical staff of an ICU (N=34). The romanian form of Pressure Management Indicator (PMI) [1][2][3][7] was applied to all participants. The instrument is designed for multidimensional evaluation of occupational stress. The objective was to identify specific indicators of occupational pressure and formulate predictions regarding the different variables. Results and conclusions: Data analysis showed, for example, that Influence and Control (as personality factors/individual differences) are good predictors for the resilience level in the studied ICU medical staff. We can conclude that individual differences regarding personality factors are the main variables that significantely influence the occupational stress coping for ICU medical staff. The PMI-RO diagnosed profile, resulted for the ICU medical staff showed many differences comparing with general population, including sources of pressure, coping strategies, personality factors, organisational satisfaction and self evaluation of performance. Further implications of the study and intervention strategies for medical personnel in ICU are discussed.

Abstract:

Agitated behaviour and poor coping skills in a patient with Borderline Personality Disorder who resided on a forensic psychiatry unit were treated using cognitive-behavioural and pharmacological interventions derived from a multimodal assessment. While a medication regime led to partial clinical improvement, the addition of interventions derived from the multimodal assessment over 9 wk. led to sufficient improvement in agitated behaviour, suicidal ideas and behaviour, and frequency of seclusions to allow transfer to the rehabilitation unit. Further supportive treatment led to continued improvement on these measures and to reduction in use of requested medication.
