Texto completoThis paper examines representations of supposed mentally "ill" and mad characters from Claudio Monteverdi's Lamento della ninfa, Gaetano Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor, Arnold Schoenberg's Erwartung, Peter Maxwell Davies's Eight Songs for a Mad King , and my own work Christopher. It argues that none of these characters are mentally "ill" and criticizes their being labeled as mad. Furthermore, this writing submits that treatment of the mentally "ill" is strongly correlated with their specific representation in western art music.

Texto completoBACKGROUND: Dual eligible (DE) patients qualify for Medicare and Medicaid. There are approximately nine million DE patients in the United States, and healthcare costs for this population totaled 319.5 billion dollars in 2011. Behavioral health illness (BHI) is a risk factor for increased healthcare service utilization. The healthcare utilization of adult DE patients <65 years of age with BHI has been studied sparsely. This study sought to describe the adult DE patient population <65 years of age at an urban academic safety net health center and compare hospital and emergency department (ED) utilization of those with and without BHI. METHODS: The study was a secondary analysis of hospital administrative data. Inclusion criteria were patients with Medicare and Medicaid between ages 18 and 65 years, who utilized Boston Medical Center between 1/1/2011 and 1/1/2012. The independent variable was diagnosis of BHI, and the dependent variables were hospital admission and ED utilization. Chi-square and Wilcoxon rank-sum tests were used for descriptive statistics on categorical and continuous variables, respectively. Greedy propensity-score matching without replacement with a caliper distance of half of a standard deviation was used to control for confounding factors. Rate ratios (RR) and confidence intervals (CI) were determined after matching and after adjusting for those variables that remained significantly different after matching. RESULTS: Pre-propensity-score matched data showed significant differences in age, sex, race/ethnicity, marital status, education, employment, physical comorbidities, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score. Post-propensity-score matched analysis found significant differences in sex, Hispanic race, and other education and employment status. As compared to those patients without BHI, patients with BHI had RR 2.07 (CI: 1.81- 2.38) (p<.0001) of hospital admission and a RR 1.61 (CI:1.46-1.77) (p<.0001) of ED utilization. After adjustment, RR for hospital admission and ED utilization remained significantly different and even increased slightly, RR 2.14 (CI: 1.87-2.46) (p<.0001) and RR 1.64 (CI:1.49-1.81) (p<.0001), respectively. CONCLUSION: As compared to DE patients without BHI, those with BHI had significantly more hospital admission and ED utilization, even after controlling for confounding factors. Results suggest interventions for decreasing healthcare services utilization in this population should focus on those DE patients with mental health illness.

Texto completoThis paper, written in journalistic style, discusses the disclosure of mental illness and its relation to stigma and discrimination. It consists of two magazine length articles. The first article (designated as Chapter I) is about the personal disclosure of mental illness by mental health professionals, including psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and others who have experienced mental illness themselves. This article discusses the extent of mental illness among professionals, the reasons professionals often remain silent, the risks and benefits of disclosing, and the complexity involved in revealing mental illness. The second article (designated as Chapter I) discusses disclosure as it pertains to all people who have mental illness. This article discusses disclosure and its relationship to stigma and discrimination, why stigma exists and persists, the disclosure of mental illness on the job, and the role of work in stigma reduction and recovery.

Texto completoNo significant difference between intervention and control groups in the overall prevalence of maladjustment was found. There was no evidence to support a therapeutic or preventive effect of social work counselling on child behavior outcomes, nor was there improvement in child perceived competence. A search for treatment interactions failed to reveal any sub-group that benefitted from the intervention, and restriction of the analysis to individuals who actually received the intervention does not alter any of these conclusions.
Measurement problems, co-intervention, or other forms of bias cannot account for the negative results. It is speculated that if social work support is to be effective, it should be targetted, potent, of adequate duration, and possibly integrated within specialist clinic services.
Cytryn, Kayla N. "Lay reasoning and decision making related to health and illness". Thesis, McGill University, 2001. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=36903.
Texto completoSemi-structured interviews and think aloud methodology were employed. Interviews focused on understanding of health and illness, prior knowledge and beliefs, and decision making. In Study One, subjects were presented with health-related problem scenarios and instructed to think aloud as they reasoned through them to make decisions. In Study Two, subjects (lay and medical) were presented with a telecommunications device and scenarios of data to enter into the system. All data were audiorecorded, transcribed, and analyzed for factors and strategies related to information-seeking and decision making behaviours.
Lay understanding of health and illness was characterized as feeling well and functioning in everyday life. The knowledge used in making decisions was based on experience and socio-cultural tradition. Knowledge about disease was found to be decoupled from decisions to act related to illness. Additional information was sought using four criteria grounded in common experience: accessibility, familiarity, complexity, and credibility. These characteristics influenced interactions between lay people and domain experts, such as health care providers, and with technology designed by experts for lay users.
Both technical and lay people make decisions with incomplete information and uncertain outcomes. For lay people making decisions about health-related issues, this incomplete knowledge is filled in based on everyday life rather than medical and scientific facts.

Texto completoThe purpose of this action research study was to examine the effects of the stigma of mental illness towards individuals with mental illness on services provided by medical professionals, specifically, registered nurses who work in an emergency department (ED). There have been numerous studies on how attitudes towards mental illness can be present in health care professionals; however, none that focused specifically on the attitudes of ED nurses. Nurses working in the ED are often the first health care professional a patient with mental illness sees and their attitude can influence the rest of the ED visit. The Opening Minds Scale for Health Care Workers (Modgill, Patten, Knaak, Kassam, & Szeto, 2014. “Opening Minds Stigma Scale for Health Care Providers (OMS-HC): Examination of Psychometric Properties and Responsiveness”) and the Caring Nurse Patient Interaction Short Form (Cossette, Cote, Pepin, Ricard, & D’Aoust, 2006. “A Dimensional Structure of Nurse-Patient Interactions from a Caring Perspective: Refinement of the Caring Nurse-Patient Interaction Scale (CNPI-Short Scale)”) were used to measure attitude towards stigma and the perception of the care a nurse gives a patient. Thirty-four nurses from two emergency departments participated in the research with the expectation of there being high levels of stigma which would in turn affect the care given to the patients with mental illness. Descriptive statistics, multiple regression and ANOVA were used to find low to moderate levels of stigma of mental illness, and these nurses had a perception of providing excellent care to their patients. This is in contrast to other studies finding moderate to high levels of stigma in general among health care professionals. This information can be useful in exploring and then using any policies and procedures present in the research sites for the benefit of other emergency departments. Additional research is planned to further review these sites and other emergency departments within the hospital network to ascertain if these results hold true, and if so, identify the dynamics involved.

Texto completoThe qualitative phenomenological study described herein examined the meaning and essence of the lived psychospiritual and felt-sense experiences arising in individuals who are living with a life-threatening illness. The purpose of the study and the research question are described in this dissertation along with definitions of important terms, the theoretical lenses through which the research was conducted, and an autobiographical reflection describing the motivation behind the research. A historical background of early medical and spiritual practices and beliefs provides context for the study and precedes a review of pertinent literature. The literature review discusses existing germane research studies that support the need for the study. Research methods used to conduct this study are described, along with participant qualifications, recruitment processes used, and ethical considerations undergirding this study. This document includes references for the many citations appearing throughout this research, a chapter that discusses the results that arose from an examination of the data, along with a discussion of findings. It is my sincere hope that my words inspire greater interest in this topic and open a sacred space for the study to have deep and lasting meaning within the wider transpersonal and scientific community.
