Abstract:
The problem with which this investigation is concerned is that of determining whether utilizing self-help groups for remedial mathematics students would improve their course completion rates, achievement, and attitudes toward learning mathematics. The methods of determining the success/failure of self-help groups in this study were the Z-test from inferences concerning two proportions, the t-test from inferences concerning the difference between two independent means, and the t-test from inferences concerning the difference between two dependent means. The participants of the study were chosen from the students enrolled in "daytime" mathematics classes at Tarrant County Junior College - Northeast Campus, Hurst, Texas. The experiment was conducted over two semesters and the data combined for statistical analysis. There were one hundred four students involved in the study. Fifty-two students comprised each of the experimental and control classes. The term self-help group was utilized to describe a small group of two-to-fifteen people who engaged in discussion of responsibility, standards, confession, lay leadership, and action. The students did not study mathematics in self-help group sessions. The group meetings dealt with anxieties, attitudes, and commitment that may be associated with mathematics in general. To investigate the hypotheses of this study, data was collected to calculate the percentage completion rates, the means of the final exams taken by students, and the differences of the Semantic Differential scores given to students in the experimental class at the beginning and the end of the semester. This data was utilized for statistical analysis to determine if the experiment was successful. The report concludes that self-help groups did not significantly improve course completion rates, achievement, or attitudes of students toward learning mathematics. Forty-four per cent of the students that completed the experimental class participated in self-help groups.

Abstract:
This work arose from a concern about the psychosocial aspects of health care. Although self help groups are one means by which information and support can be offered and received, there are few studies of health self help groups in Britain. The available literature suggests that self help groups are complex organisations which are difficult to define and categorise. This study adds further confirmation to that. This research follows an ethnomethodological approach and provides an in-depth study of six cancer self help groups. Data were gathered from interviews with group members and associated professionals, and from participant observation of group meetings. Women's experience of the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer suggests that they are poorly informed and receive little or no support within the formal services. They go to self help groups with little information about them and hold unrealistic expectations of what the group might offer. Participation in groups occurs at a variety of levels and frequently over a long period of time. The groups provide women with practical and social support and act as a means of empowerment to enable them to accommodate their illness into their lives and help to realise their health potential. The interviews with professionals suggest that they were aware of the benefits and possible drawbacks of self help. However, few had fully considered the nature of self help, and professional involvement. Groups were keen to develop good relations with professionals as one means of legitimation yet wished to maintain their own integrity and control. This enabled a shift in the normal, individual social relationship between patient and professional. Several policy issues in relation to both the delivery of health care for people with diagnosed cancer and about the organisation and function of self help groups and their interactions with professionals are discussed. In particular the availability and nature of information and communication during diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer requires review. Self help groups are one way this might be facilitated. They are, on the whole, complementary rather than a direct challenge to mainstream medical services. They maintain a dynamic relationship with formal services, but generally attempt to work alongside local professionals. They provide a cost-effective psychosocial support which is unique. They provide considerable potential to advance a 'whole person' approach as envisaged by the World Health Organisation and it is in the interest of the Health Service to promote their development. Any support from medical and social services will require workers in the field to reassess their own practice and involvement with groups.

Simm, Jonathan. "Direct action self-help groups in UK flood risk management." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 2015. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/29541/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis critically evaluates the reasons and extent to which Direct Action Self-Help (DASH) groups are, or can be, viable and an efficacious, efficient and effective means of managing and monitoring Flood and Coastal erosion Risk Management (FCRM) assets. FCRM DASH groups are found to be motivated by challenges of increasing flood risk and reduced public funding, alongside a sense of stewardship and community solidarity, catalysed by a few motivated individuals. The thesis develops a conceptual framework of the different dimensions, contextual aspects and motivations for DASH activity. Case studies show that channel maintenance work by DASH groups can be effective and efficient at reducing some aspects of local fluvial flood risk for lower order flood events. By contrast, maintenance of existing sea walls by DASH groups is less efficient because of the need for significant expenditure on materials and is only efficacious if the engineering is quality controlled; its longer term effectiveness is limited by sea level rise. Professional FCRM coordination and support of DASH activity is examined using a case study of an Environment Agency (EA) area coordinator and comparisons with alternative approaches. Support of DASH groups by FCRM professionals is essential to avoid unwise activity and to provide practical support, seed-corn funding and advice on the nature and extent to which DASH activity might be appropriate. The most effective form of DASH facilitation requires a quality and quantity of involvement that cannot readily be supplied by dispersed arrangements from a number of individuals. The thesis also proposes an approach for assessing and scoring the human dimensions of engineering assets. The dimensions of Sense of Security, Accessibility/Availability and Delight/Inspiration reflect insights from key thinkers from a wide range of disciplines. The framework is verified for the FCRM context and its practicality evaluated by trials in which DASH and other community groups assess human dimensions.
