Treatment Of Depression

A self-control treatment of depression was evaluated against a cognitive treatment of depression. 30 depressed female volunteer subjects were randomly assigned to one of two 6-wk. group treatment conditions. The self-control treatment focused on self-monitoring, self-evaluation and self-reinforcement. The cognitive treatment emphasized identifying and altering irrational thoughts. The self-control treatment was as effective as the cognitive treatment in producing significant reductions in depression. Results remained stable at a 6-wk. follow-up. Discussion focused on the efficacy of the self-control model and implications for research.

Abstract Creative entrepreneurship has gained ground in recent years with the advent of creative industries. The capabilitiesto set targets and individually self-regulate have been indicated as predictors of entrepreneurship. This study aims to identify validity characteristics of a self-regulation scale and to test if score differences are related to whether or not one is an entrepreneur, personalcharacteristics, or the activity sector. A total of 596 professionals from creative industries in Brazil participated in this study. The self-control and self-management scale (SCMS) has been applied; it has been translated and adapted to Portuguese. Cross-validation analysis has been done. The results support the three-factor structure of the scale. Entrepreneurs tended to indicate higher means in the self-evaluation factor than non-entrepreneurs. Activity sector, gender and schooling demonstrated a significant difference in the self-monitoring factor.

ABSTRAKPerilaku on-task merupakan segala perilaku yang bertujuan untuk menyelesaikan tugas sehingga berperan penting dalam pencapaian akademik pada anak. Anak dengan underachiever umumnya memiliki masalah dalam menampilkan perilaku on- task. Sebaliknya, mereka cenderung untuk menampilkan perilaku off-task yang didefinisikan sebagai perilaku melakukan pekerjaan yang tidak ada hubungannya dengan tugas atau aktivitas yang sedang dijalani. Perilaku on-task dapat ditingkatkan dengan metode self-monitoring. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji efektivitas teknik self-monitoring dalam meningkatkan perilaku on-task pada anak underachiever. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian subyek tunggal A-B dengan follow-updengan partisipan penelitian adalah anak laki-laki underachiever berusia 9 tahun dengan IQ rata-rata atas yang cenderung menampilkan perilaku off-task ketika dihadapkan pada suatu tugas atau aktivitas. Penelitian ini terdiri dari 10 sesi dan hasil menunjukkan bahwa teknik self-monitoring dapat meningkatkan perilaku on-task dari 60% menjadi 90% dan efek pemberian intervensi bertahan hingga tahap follow-up.Kata kunci: on-task, self-monitoring, underachieverABSTRACTOn-task behavior refers as all behaviors that intended to complete the task, so it plays an important role for children’s academic achievement. Mostly, the underachiever children tend to have problems demonstrating on-task behavior. In the contrary, they tend to demonstrate off-task behavior that defined as all behaviorsthat isn’t intended to complete the task. On-task behavior can be increased with self-monitoring method. The aim of this research is to test the effectivity of self-monitoring techinique to increase underachiever children’s on-task behavior. This research is a single case AB with follow-up design. The participant in this research is a male underachiever student age 9 with the IQ score of above average that tend to demonstrate off task behavior while working on his school task. This research consists of 10 session and the result shows that the self-monitoring technique is effective in increasing the on-task behavior from 60% to 90%. The effect of this intervention last until the follow up sessionKeywords: on-task, self-monitoring, underachiever

Clinical Problems

The present state of stuttering therapy programs enables the clinician to render many stutterers virtually stutter-free in the clinic. A major clinical problem, however, is the transfer of fluency to nonclinical situations and its maintenance over time. Concepts and techniques extrapolated from the literature on behavior change are applied to assessment, treatment objectives, treatment techniques, and to a number of procedures designed to facilitate transfer and maintenance during therapy. When fluency has been established, self-control techniques based on speech practice, self-monitoring, and the deliberate use of self-administered and social contingencies are stressed. Guidelines for termination of therapy and follow-up are given. For many of these techniques, specific examples are offered from clinical work with stutterers. Other techniques are presented because of their potential relevance and their demonstrated effectiveness with a variety of clinical problems.

Social Skills Deficits

Fifty-one out-patients with social skills deficits (two-thirds men) completed ten weekly sessions of 75-minute group treatment; 44 were followed up for a mean of 16 months. Random assignment was to one of three conditions: (1) Cohesive group discussion; (2) Modelling and role-rehearsal; or (3) Modelling and role-rehearsal+daily social homework.All three treatment conditions produced significant but incomplete improvement at the end of treatment and follow-up. The two role-rehearsal conditions were significantly superior to group discussion on several measures. Patients who completed daily social homework assignments did significantly better than patients who completed control homework. Alcohol and drug abuse patients usually dropped out. Schizophrenic patients in remission had lost their improvement at follow-up. Patients with other diagnoses retained their gains to 16-month follow-up.

Abstract Background Understanding how health sciences students learn to perform clinical examinations is required to inform feedback that improves performance. Self-regulated learning (SRL) is an essential component of effective feedback. The key self-regulated learning processes can be identified using microanalysis. Self-regulated learning microanalysis is increasingly used to assess and inform the training of clinical skills in medical education but there are no studies on the use of self-regulated learning microanalysis to understand the performance of clinical examination by physiotherapy students. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using self-regulated learning microanalysis to understand how physiotherapy students use key self-regulated learning processes while performing a clinical examination. Method SRL microanalysis assessed the self-regulated learning processes of second year physiotherapy students of a Spanish university (n= 26) as they performed a goniometric evaluation. An analysis of inter-rater reliability was also performed to evaluate the degree of agreement among raters. Results There were differences in the use of key self-regulated learning processes between successful (n= 15: 57.0%) and unsuccessful performers (n= 11: 43.0%), with differences in strategic planning, self-monitoring and the self-evaluation phases. There was good inter-rater reliability for scoring strategic planning (k=0.792), self-monitoring (k=0.946) and self-evaluation (k=0.846). Conclusion SRL microanalysis is a feasible approach to identify the key self-regulated learning processes of the performance of clinical examination by physiotherapy students. Further research with larger number of students and a variety of tasks is recommended.

This paper presents the link between self-control and childhood enuresis, assuming that enuresis is maintained by deficiencies in self-control skills, whether caused by physiological, behavioral, or cognitive components. Acquisition of self-control skills is proposed as helping in eliminating enuresis. Seventy-seven enuretic children (aged 7 to 14) were randomly assigned to three treatment modes (bell and pad, token economy, and cognitive therapy) and to one control group. The self-control skills of children and their parents and the frequency of enuresis were measured before and after treatment. Results showed a negative correlation between self-control and enuresis on the one hand and between the acquisition of self-control skills and recovery from enuresis on the other hand. The results also highlighted the need for a follow-up period to determine the different longer-term effects of treatments.

Este artículo busca establecer los efectos que los préstamos, utlizados por los microempresarios de la comuna 18 de Cali, tienen sobre los negocios en relación al concepto de generación de valor. Para el logro de lo anterior, se construyó un instrumento de encuesta en escala Likert que permitió identificar los usos que los microempresarios dan a los recursos que obtienen a través de préstamos, así como también los efectos que ellos reconocen sobre las unidades productivas. Entre los resultados encontrados se evidenció que el uso más frecuente que le dan a estos recursos es para la compra de mercancía y la ampliación de los negocios; y, en relación con los efectos, se encuentran principalmente asociados a un incremento en inventarios y ventas. También se pudo establecer una gran debilidad en relación a conocimientos contables y financieros, lo cual representa una barrera para orientar sus decisiones de consecución de recursos a través de préstamos con la perspectiva de generación de valor.
