Abstract:

It has been hypothesised that a trait-like vulnerability to sleep disruption exists. This has been demonstrated in response to physiological stressors such as caffeine and phase advance. From this work the Ford Insomnia Responsivity to Stress (FIRST) questionnaire was designed, which aims to specify those who are vulnerable to stress related sleep disruption. Further to this, neuroticism and emotion focused coping have been shown to characterise the insomnia population, and suggested that these constitute risk factors for the development of an insomnia syndrome. However, there has been very li

Abstract:

This thesis explores the experiences of managers who work flexibly. Flexible working policies are prevalent in all organizations in the UK because of the legislation giving specific groups of parents and carers the right to request flexible working. Many organizations extend the policies to all employees, yet the take-up is not as high as expected, particularly among staff at managerial levels. This thesis explores how managers construe and experience flexible working arrangements while successfully fulfilling their roles as managers of people.

Abstract:

In this thesis, I show how a community of professionals providing equine therapy to individuals with disabilities discursively make sense of their enterprise. A market metaphor illustrates how disability is constructed as the capital sustaining the livelihood of their industry. Disability is a problem-centered concept. It is generally conceptualized according to a medical model which locates disability within the individual, as opposed to understanding it in a sociological sense which accounts for structural, cultural, and communicative factors. Therapy, on the other hand, is problem-determine

Background South Africa has experienced the most severe consequences of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Every community has been affected in some way, many experiencing huge increases in mortality,particularly before antiretroviral therapies (ART) were readily available. However, the micro-level understanding of the HIV epidemic in South Africa is weak, because of a lack of detailed data for most of the population.

A range of methods including a systematic review, a single case study and a primary phenomenological investigation were used to explore issues in the field. Following an introduction in Chapter 1, Chapter 2 reviews the effectiveness of psychological treatment for reducing recidivism in child molesters. The results indicate that recidivism among treated and untreated child molesters is yet to consistently and clearly differ and that the treatment outcome literature is obstructed

To address this gap there were several aims of the study. First, to ascertain the number of OTs working in this field across a range of service delivery locations in WA.

There is some evidence in support of this in the form of previous studies showing to what degree American and British English is mixed by Swedes.
