Intergenerational shifts and continuities in children's play within a rural Venda family in the early 20th and 21st centuriesRamugondo, Elelwani January 2009 (has links)
Includes abstract. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 235-252). / This research involved studying the childhood play of three generations within one family based in the Venda region, Limpopo Province, South Africa. Two main questions were asked: 1. What is the nature of intergenerational shifts or continuities in children?s play within one Venda family? 2. What are the factors that bring about the shifts or continuities? The Gudani family was studied as a single case. The case study was approached with an understanding proposed by Stake (1998, 2008) and supported by others like Flyvbjerg (2006), who regard it not always a research method, but also the object of study. Handling the family as a bounded system, information was gathered from multiple sources, situating the case within its context. Interviews were conducted with a grandparent, the parents and children in order to gain an understanding of their childhood play, foregrounding participants' own view of what constitutes play. In addition, an ethnographic lens was used to investigate the third generation's everyday culture, with specific attention to their play.

Evidence-based practice in the occupational therapy profession in South Africa and the Western CapeBuchanan, Helen January 2011 (has links)
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 257-276). / Research from upper-income countries has revealed the difficulties occupational therapists experience in implementing evidence-based practice (EBP). This thesis investigated the state of EBP in occupational therapy in South Africa and evaluated the effectiveness of two EBP educational interventions. The research consisted of three linked studies: a national cross-sectional survey of 436 registered occupational therapists; the development of a questionnaire and audit checklist to evaluate EBP knowledge, attitudes and behaviour; and a randomised controlled trial that tested whether an interactive educational intervention (IE) was more effective than a didactic one (DE) for improving EBP knowledge, attitudes and behaviour in occupational therapists.
