The Efficacy of a Systematic Process for Designing Function-Based Interventions for Adults in a Community SettingUnderwood, Martha Anne January 2007 (has links)
The Function-based Intervention Decision Model (Umbreit, Ferro, Liaupsin, & Lane, 2007) (Decision Model), is a straightforward technique to link the function of a behavior to an intervention. Although this technique has been found to be significantly effective with school-age disability populations, it has not been tested with adults who have cognitive disabilities and significant behavioral problems in non-school settings.This study explored the efficacy of the Decision Model (Umbreit et al., 2007) as a method for matching behavioral interventions to assessed function(s) of the target behavior by extending its practices to adults with developmental disabilities in a community-based day program. The participants were three adults with moderate mental retardation and problematic behavior, displayed by inappropriate social interactions. The research design was a multiple baseline across subjects. A notable benefit to this design is that there was no need to withdraw treatment, an important ethical consideration because each of the problem behaviors presented with some form of self-injury, aggression to others, and/or property destruction. The study had four phases: (a) conducting the functional behavioral assessment to identify the function of the participant's problem behavior, (b) utilizing the Decision Model (Umbreit et al., 2007) to link the function to the behavioral intervention plan (BIP), (c) applying the intervention, and (d) and maintenance. Several research questions were posed: (a) Do interventions developed using the Decision Model produce positive results for adults who have developmental disabilities and significant behavior problems in a non-school setting? (b) Will the application and maintenance of each BIP result in decreased exhibition of assessed problem behaviors? (c) Will the application and maintenance of each BIP result in increased exhibition of identified replacement behaviors? (d) Will the day program support staff and behavioral support team view the outcomes as socially valid? The results indicated a decrease in problem behaviors (socially inappropriate interactions) and an increase in replacement behaviors (socially appropriate interactions). Results of this study influenced positive intervention strategies that were easily maintained and viewed as socially valid by the direct support staff, evidenced by the results of the Treatment Acceptability Rating Form-Revised (Reimers, Wacker, Cooper, & DeRaad, 1992).

Diabetes Education Among American Indians on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation: Improving Educational Interventions in the School SettingSwanson, Lisa Marie January 2020 (has links)
Minority populations such as American Indians (AIs) in the United States experience large-scale healthcare related disparities when compared with non-minority citizens. Diabetes can affect all races and ethnicities across the globe, regardless of age, sex, or location on the map, and affects AIs at disproportionately high rates. While type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is not preventable, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) can be prevented and avoided in some instances. The implementation of an evidence-based diabetes program in a school-based setting has the potential to positively improve the health of school-aged children.
Based on the need for high-quality diabetes prevention education, an evidence-based educational curriculum was piloted in order to ascertain the feasibility of using such a program to increase diabetes and obesity prevention knowledge in the school setting. The implementation of the Diabetes Education in Tribal Schools (DETS) curriculum in community and school-based settings has been reported in literature. The program is intended to lower the prevalence of T2DM by incorporating lifestyle management options that specifically targets American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) minority communities.
Three lessons from the DETS curriculum were presented to the Boys and Girls Club of Three Affiliated Tribes (TAT) in Mandaree, North Dakota. Throughout the curriculum, students were educated regarding T2DM and obesity prevention by engaging in interactive learning activities. The results of the project revealed that community-based interventions for preventing T2DM and obesity can be a helpful way to reach children in the community setting. Overall, this curriculum was effective and successfully taught to voluntary participants. The measures used included qualitative interviewing and learning activities with answers/responses from the participants. Active community involvement by healthcare providers can promote primary prevention through educational activities.

Psychometric Properties of the Spanish Version of the Treatment Support Measure (TSM-SP)Ruth, Corinne Elizabeth 01 June 2020 (has links)
Hispanic youth and families, although they comprise a sizeable portion of the population, are underrepresented in mental health settings within the United States and face significant barriers to receiving adequate treatment. Specifically, the lack of availability of Spanish assessment tools for application in treatment prohibits Hispanic clients from accessing the full extent of available therapeutic resources. The Treatment Support Measure (TSM) is a valid and reliable instrument that allows clinicians and researchers to collect information to better understand change processes and relevant client characteristics in therapy. The present study created a Spanish-translated version of the parent and youth TSM (TSM-SP) and assessed its psychometric properties in a Spanish-speaking community sample of 177 youth and 214 adult caregivers. The internal consistency reliability of all domains of the parent and youth versions of the TSM-SP was good, aside from the Youth Motivation domain. In contrast, the test-retest reliability of all domains of the parent and youth versions of the TSM-SP were generally poor. The construct validity of all domains of the parent and youth versions of the TSM-SP as examined by confirmatory factor analysis was excellent, aside from the Youth Motivation domain. Overall, these results laid the foundation for future research examining the utility and properties of the TSM-SP. The TSM-SP has potential to provide clinicians treating Spanish-speaking youth and families with a useful tool to help better serve these populations in therapy and broaden the scope of research into change processes in youth therapy to involve more diverse populations.

EFFECTS OF PARTICIPANT CONTROLLED VIDEO PROMPTING ON NOVEL TASKS IN A VOCATIONAL SETTING FOR ADULTS WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERHogue, Amanda M. 01 January 2017 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching self-instructional skills to navigate to a mobile device to access video prompts to teach novel behaviors to two adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in a vocational setting. This study used a multiple probe across conditions design to evaluate effectiveness. In baseline, the researcher directed the participants to complete a novel task and collected data on correct steps completed. In technology training the researcher used a system of least prompts procedure to teach participants to initiate the use of the mobile device, navigate to an app, navigate to the specific behavior schedule, watch video prompt, navigate to the next step, and complete the modeled behaviors. After mastery of technology training, researcher evaluated performance of novel tasks following self-instruction to access video prompts on the mobile device. Participant’s fidelity of navigation skills was assessed, however was not included in mastery criterion. Both participants learned to self-instruct to independently access video prompts on a mobile device. One participant self-instructed using the mobile device and video prompts to correctly complete novel tasks.

Anhörigas erfarenheter av att vårda en person med demenssjukdom i hemmet : en icke-systematisk litteraturöversikt / Family caregivers' experiences of caring for a relative with dementia living at home : a non-systematic literature reviewLif, Signe, Nærbø, Sarah January 2024 (has links)
Bakgrund Demenssjukdomar är en grupp sjukdomar som orsakar att hjärnans celler successivt och irreversibelt förlorar funktion och dör. Detta kallas neurodegeneration. Symtomen för demens varierar mellan de olika typerna av demenssjukdom. Demenssjukdomar kan behandlas till en viss grad, men går inte att bota. Alla med demenssjukdom behöver till slut stöd och hjälp i vardagen. Vissa med demenssjukdom bor i någon form av icke-ordinärt boende, alltså inte i det egna hemmet. På icke-ordinära boenden får den demenssjuke personen hjälp av personal för att klara av vardagen och sin sjukdom, men många bor hemma. Då är det inte sällan anhöriga som står för hjälp och stöd. Syfte Syftet var att beskriva anhörigas erfarenheter av att vårda en person med demenssjukdom i hemmet. Metod Denna litteraturöversikt är icke-systematisk med kvalitativ ansats. Resultatet baserades på tio vetenskapliga artiklar, varav nio med kvalitativ ansats och en med mixad metod. Artiklarna inhämtades från sökning i databasen PubMed. Artiklarna analyserades genom integrerad analys. Resultat Fem teman identifierades i resultatet: Förändrade relationer och en ny framtid, Den nya rollen, Erfarenheter av samhälle och kultur, Konsekvenser för anhörigvårdaren samt Positiva erfarenheter. Resultatet påvisade att anhöriga som vårdar personer med demens i hemmet i hög utsträckning känner sorg och förlust, dels över den demenssjuke personen, dels för relationen de haft och som inte längre är densamme. Det framkom även frustration och en känsla av otillräcklighet i den nya rollen som anhörigvårdare. Slutsats Omvårdnaden och vården som anhöriga bistår sina demenssjuka familjemedlemmar är viktig och ovärderlig för samhället. Dock blir de anhöriga inte sällan påverkade psykiskt, fysiskt och existentiellt av vad det innebär att vara anhörigvårdare. / Background Dementia is a group of diseases that cause brain cells to successively and irreversibly lose function and die. This is called neurodegeneration. The symptoms of dementia differ between the different types of dementia. Dementia can be treated to a certain degree but cannot be cured. All persons with dementia will at some point need support in their everyday lives. Some with dementia live in a residential facility or nursing home, thus not in the ordinary home. In residential facilities or nursing homes, the person with dementia receives help and support from personnel to manage everyday life, yet many live in their own homes. Those who live at home often receive help and support from family and relatives. Aim The aim was to describe the experiences of family caregivers caring for a relative with dementia at home. Method This literature review is non-systematic with a qualitative approach. The result was based on ten research articles, nine of which had qualitative approaches and one was a mixed method study. The articles were retrieved from searches in the database PubMed. The articles were analyzed with an integrated analysis. Results Five themes were identified in the result: Changed relationships and a new future, The new role, Experiences of society and culture, Consequences for the family caregiver, and Positive experiences. The result showed that family caregivers largely experience grief and loss, partly over the person with dementia, and partly over the relationship they had and that is no longer what it used to be. Frustration and a feeling of inadequateness in their new roles also emerged as a result. Conclusions The care that family caregivers provide their relatives with dementia is important and invaluable for society. Yet the family caregivers often suffer psychological, physical, and existential consequences from what caregiving entails.
