Abstract:

This study examines the experiences of relatives of people suffering from long-term mental illness. The impetus and context for this study has been provided by the well publicised Regional Health Authority sponsored closure programmes of Friern and Claybury Psychiatric Hospitals. These planned closures have emerged from several decades of a fairly consistent, nation wide, shift of services from the old hospital sites to the community. The study has taken place amid a certain amount of confusion about the future direction of Community Care policy. In an attempt to grapple with this, the particu

The Lincoln Elementary School needs assessment surveyed students in the third through fifth grades and their parents in order to identify strengths and concerns in their school and community. It also investigated whether or not participants considered family counseling skills as a concern or a strength. The results showed that the concerns and strengths identified by participants fell into three categories: family, community, and school. Parents' primary concern was children watching TV, while children's primary concern was getting enough sleep. Group differences were identified by ethnicity,

Abstract:

This thesis attempts to identify authors' attitudes toward late eighteenth century London prostitutes. Through the examination of several selected sources, one can isolate feelings that eighteenth century writers had about prostitution and those who practiced it. In these works, prostitutes were always rendered as of the lower orders, which the authors acknowledged and emphasized in their writings. What is striking is that none of these authors acknowledged the culpability of the male in the client-prostitute relationship. Therefore, in a close examination of eighteenth century authors' vi

Abstract:

Introduction: Previously diversion from the criminal justice system for people with LD and forensic needs had meant hospitalisation, but more recently a model of community-based rehabilitation has become possible via new mental health legislation. Community-based orders aim to rehabilitate clients via compulsory, intensive staff support. Although this model is beneficial in theory, empirical evidence suggests there may be a number of issues in practice. The current study aimed to capture the subjective experience of a group of individuals with LD and forensic needs currently on community-based

Doctor of Philosophy<br>Department of Special Education, Counseling and Student Affairs<br>Linda P. Thurston<br>This qualitative case study with multiple participants explored how the perception of campus climate and gender role expectations contributes to Latinas’ persistence at a two-year Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) in the Midwest. Guided by the work of Hurtado and Carter (1997) and social support theory (Sarason & Sarason, 1985), various aspects of the college experience both inside and outside the classroom were examined. In-depth interviews were conducted in order to gain insight i

Abstract:

In recent years there has been growing enthusiasm among researchers for the promotion of online learning communities designed to support professional learning in preservice teacher education. The primary purpose of this qualitative study is to explore the role of such an online community in supporting student teacher learning during the school placement in a Chinese Normal University, and hence to enrich the understanding of student teachers’ learning experiences in an online ecology. The study’s subjects included a cohort of 42 student teachers enrolled on a four-year preservice teacher educa

Abstract:

This research used an Interpretative Phenomenological Approach to explore how Christians, who have had an inpatient mental health admission, experience the views of their local faith community and those of their NHS mental health staff caring for them. I recruited eight participants (six female and two male) and interviewed them using a semi-structured interview format. The analysis suggests that participants could experience both the church and the mental health systems positively, as a "sanctuary", or negatively, as a "prison." Participants gave accounts of both the church and the mental hea

Abstract:

One of the first activities in preventing pressure ulcers is the early identification of individuals who are susceptible to developing them. If a person is identified as susceptible or 'at risk', it is the health care professional's duty to ensure that preventive measures are implemented. The earliest phases of pressure ulcer development may show no outward visible signs of damage. Therefore it is important that individuals' at risk* are given an immediate prevention plan.

Abstract:

Near real-time event streams are a key feature in many popular social media applications. These types of applications allow users to selectively follow event streams to receive a curated list of real-time events from various sources. Due to the emphasis on recency, relevance, personalization of content, and the highly variable cardinality of social subgraphs, it is extremely difficult to implement feed following at the scale of major social media applications. This leads to multiple architectural approaches, but no consensus has been reached as to what is considered to be an idiomatic solution

Abstract:

Yes<br>The International Centre for Participation Studies and Sharing Voices Bradford (for information on these organisations, see Appendices 3 and 4) maintain that participation is an important part of a healthy democracy, with benefits for all. However, participation can be anything from empowering to tokenistic, and must be critically examined if we are to understand how to use it effectively. This paper considers the contribution of participation to improved service delivery in the health service. For beneficiaries, participation can be about ownership and responsibility for the ser
