A quantitative, descriptive, explorative design was used to evaluate a decentralised primary health care training programme at a training unit in the Limpopo Province. The study sought to determine to what extent the newly qualified diplomates were able to manage patients appropriately when faced with the realities, such as the shortage of personnel, large numbers of patients, shortage of resources and time constraints in the real situation without the support and guidance from medical practitioners and senior nursing personnel. Data were collected by observing the diplomates as they managed patients with hypertension by making use of checklists. The diplomates were also interviewed by making use of an in interview schedule. The major inferences drawn from this study was that these diplomates were competent in the management of these patients and were satisfied with their abilities and training. / Health Studies / M. A.

Text in Afrikaans / The goal with the research is firstly is to study and theoretically describe the interpersonal style repertoire of middle level managers according to the interpersonal approach and more specifically the 1982 Interpersonal Circle. Secondly the interpersonal development interventions and the development process for middle level managers were discussed from this approach. The third theoretical goal involved compiling a interpersonal development programme for middle level managers. The empirical goals of the research involved the evaluation of the interpersonal style repertoires of middle level managers by means of self and fellow manager evaluations in an attempt to get an indication of the most prominent interpersonal styles of middle level managers. Furthermore the empirical investigation involved an analysis of the influence of the interpersonal development programme in expanding the interpersonal style repertoires of middle level managers. The results of the self evaluations suggest that the warm-friendly, deferent-trusting, assureddominant and sociable-exhibitionistic styles are the primary styles of the 263 middle managers in the sample. Their evaluations by the 82 fellow managers seem to indicate that the warmfriendly, assured-dominant, deferent-trusting, and sociable-exhibitionistic styles are the most prominent interpersonal styles of middle level managers. Although these results seem to correspond to the teoretically applicable style repertoires of middle level managers the scores were all below average. XIV With the interpersonal development programme an attempt was made to make the group of 32 managers aware of their own interpersonal style repertoires and to provide them with the opportunity to study the way in which these are used in interpersonal transactions during a experiential learning experience. The development interventions, process and the influence of the development programme are also discussed. / Die doel met hierdie navorsmg is eerstens om die interpersoonlike stylrepertoire van middelvlakbestuurders aan die hand van die interpersoonlike benadering en meer spesifiek 1982 Interpersoonlike Sirkel, te bestudeer en teoreties te beskryf. Tweedens is die interpersoonlike ontwikkelingsintervensies en -ontwikkelingsproses vir middelvlakbestuurders vanuit die benadering beskryf. Die derde teoretiese doelstelling het die samestelling van 'n interpersoonlike ontwikkelingsprogram vir middelvlakbestuurders behels. Wat die empiriese doelstellings in die navorsing betref, is die interpersoonlike stylrepertoire van middelvlakbestuurders deur middel van self- en medebestuurderevaluasies geevalueer om sodoende 'n aanduiding van die mees prominente interpersoonlike style van middelvlakbestuuders te kry. Verder het die empiriese ondersoek ook 'n ontleding van die invloed van die interpersoonlike ontwikkelingsprogram op die uitbreiding van middelvlakbestuurders se interpersoonlike style ingesluit. Die resultate van hulle selfevaluasies suggereer <lat die warm-vriendelik, geleidend-vertrouend, versekerd-dominant en sosiaal-ekshibisionistiese style die primere interpersoonlike style van die steekproef van 263 middelvlakbestuurders is. Wat die resultate van die evaluasies van die 82 medebestuurders betref, blyk dit dat die warm-vriendelik, versekerd-dominant, geleidendvertrouend en sosiaal-ekshibisionistiese style as die mees prominente style is. XVI Alhoewel hierdie resultate in 'n groot mate met die teoereties-toepaslike stylrepertoire van middelvlakbestuurders ooreenstem, was al die tellings ondergemiddeld. Met die interpersoonlike ontwikkelingsprogram is daar gepoog om 'n bewustheid by 'n groep van 32 bestuurders van hulle eie interpersoonlike stylrepertoire te kweek, en om hulle die geleentheid te bied om die interpersoonlike transakies waarin die style na vore tree, tydens 'n eksperimentele leerondervinding te bestudeer. Die gedragsontwikkelingsintervensies, die gedragsontwikkelingsproses en die invloed van die ontwikkelingsprogram word ook bespreek / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / D.

This study examines the impact of gender on the coping mechanisms employed to manage work-related stress. The aim of the investigation was to determine whether male and female professionals differ in terms of the coping mechanisms that they employ in managing work-related stress. In order to achieve this aim an assessment battery containing a Biographical Checklist, the Coping Checklist, the Hassles Scale and the Daily Uplifts Scale was distributed to a sample of professional men and women. The fmdings indicate that male and female professionals differ significantly in only two of the six coping mechanisms measured, namely social support and symptom management; that men and women do not differ significantly in terms of coping repertoire; and that women cope more effectively than their male counterparts with work-related· stress. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.A. (Industrial Psychology)

The performance diagnostic tool called Performance Diagnostic Checklist - Human Services (PDC-HS), can be a useful tool in identifying functional variables, as well as indicating possible interventions to be implemented when there are performance problems. This research aimed to (1) Translate and adapt this tool that focuses on the verbal report of the leadership and the direct observations of the applicator, (2) create a team version to be answered by the employees, and (3) their respective applications in a business services company. The method consisted of seven steps, as follows: 1º) first check: students of the fifth year of Psychology, 2º) second check: Application in a pilot class of the company's management, 3º) third check: Appraisers experts in behavior analysis, 4º) fourth check: management team and direction of the company researched, 5º) defining and redefining the performance problem, 6º) fifth check: PDC-HS application of the target group and 7º) analysis. The results of the application of the tools in the different audiences are complementary. After the applications of PDC-HS in the researched company, 14 interventions were indicated in which seven are compatible actions between leadership and employees and seven are actions that would be appropriate based on the verbal report of the employees and that were not indicated on the basis of leadership’s verbal report. For future studies there is the need for customization of the tool, depending on the behavioral description of the performance problem, target audience and institution / Alguns métodos podem ser utilizados para a identificação de variáveis que mantêm ou limitam classes de comportamentos. A ferramenta de diagnóstico de desempenho chamada Performance Diagnostic Checklist – Human Services (PDC-HS), pode ser um instrumento útil na identificação de variáveis funcionais, além de indicar intervenções possíveis de serem implementadas, quando há problemas de desempenho. A presente pesquisa visou à (1) tradução e adaptação desta ferramenta que foca no relato verbal da liderança e nas observações diretas do aplicador, a (2) criação da versão equipe para ser respondida pelos liderados, e (3) suas respectivas aplicações em uma empresa do ramo de serviços. O método consistiu em 7 etapas, sendo elas: 1º) primeira verificação: Quintanistas de Psicologia, 2º) segunda verificação: Aplicação em uma turma piloto de gestores da empresa pesquisada, 3º) terceira verificação: Avaliadores especialistas em Análise do Comportamento, 4º) quarta verificação: Equipe administrativa e direção da empresa pesquisada, 5º) definição e redefinição do problema de desempenho, 6º) quinta verificação: Aplicação do PDC-HS no grupo alvo e 7º) análises. Os resultados das aplicações das ferramentas nos diferentes públicos são complementares. Após a aplicação do PDC-HS na empresa pesquisada, 14 intervenções foram indicadas nas quais sete são ações compatíveis entre liderança e liderados e sete são ações que seriam indicadas com base no relato verbal dos liderados e que não foi indicado com base no relato da liderança. Para futuras pesquisas há a necessidade de customização da ferramenta, a depender da descrição comportamental do problema de desempenho, público alvo e instituição

<p>Att genomföra ett penetrationstest av en nätverksarkitektur är komplicerat, riskfyllt och omfattande. Denna rapport utforskar hur en konsult bäst genomför ett internt penetrationstest tidseffektivt, utan att utelämna viktiga delar. I ett internt penetrationstest får konsulten ofta ta del av systemdokumentation för att skaffa sig en bild av nätverksarkitekturen, på så sätt elimineras den tid det tar att kartlägga hela nätverket manuellt. Detta medför även att eventuella anomalier i systemdokumentationen kan identifieras. Kommunikation med driftansvariga under testets gång minskar risken för missförstånd och systemkrascher. Om allvarliga sårbarheter identifieras meddelas driftpersonalen omgå-ende. Ett annat sätt att effektivisera testet är att skippa tidskrävande uppgifter som kommer att lyckas förr eller senare, t.ex. lösenordsknäckning, och istället påpeka att orsaken till sårbarheten är att angriparen har möjlighet att testa lösenord obegränsat antal gånger. Därutöver är det lämpligt att simulera vissa attacker som annars kan störa produktionen om testet genomförs i en driftsatt miljö.</p><p>Resultatet av rapporten är en checklista som kan tolkas som en generell metodik för hur ett internt penetrationstest kan genomföras. Checklistans syfte är att underlätta vid genomförande av ett test. Processen består av sju steg: förberedelse och planering, in-formationsinsamling, sårbarhetsdetektering och analys, rättighetseskalering, penetrationstest samt summering och rapportering.</p> / <p>A network architecture penetration test is complicated, full of risks and extensive. This report explores how a consultant carries it out in the most time effective way, without overlook important parts. In an internal penetration test the consultant are often allowed to view the system documentation of the network architecture, which saves a lot of time since no total host discovery is needed. This is also good for discovering anomalies in the system documentation. Communication with system administrators during the test minimizes the risk of misunderstanding and system crashes. If serious vulnerabilities are discovered, the system administrators have to be informed immediately. Another way to make the test more effective is to skip time consuming tasks which will succeed sooner or later, e.g. password cracking, instead; point out that the reason of the vulnerability is the ability to brute force the password. It is also appropriate to simulate attacks which otherwise could infect the production of the organization.</p><p>The result of the report is a checklist by means of a general methodology of how in-ternal penetration tests could be implemented. The purpose of the checklist is to make it easier to do internal penetration tests. The process is divided in seven steps: Planning, information gathering, vulnerability detection and analysis, privilege escalation, pene-tration test and final reporting.</p>

Background: In many severely mentally disordered children, the clinical presentation is complicated by comorbid affective and behavioral dysregulation. Recently, a highly heritable behavioral phenotype of simultaneous deviance on the anxious/depressed, attention problems, and aggressive behavior syndrome scales has been identified on the Child Behavior Checklist Dysregulation Profile (CBCL-DP). The aim of the present pilot study was to determine an equivalent to the CBCL-DP using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Sampling and Methods: We applied stepwise linear discriminant analyses and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis to data from 543 consecutively referred children and adolescents, aged 5–17 years. The CBCL and the SDQ were completed by parents as part of the diagnostic routine. ICD-10 discharge diagnoses were established in consensus conferences. Results: A combination of five SDQ items (SDQ-Dysregulation Profile, SDQ-DP) yielded the best discrimination of children with and without CBCL-DP and classified 81.0% of the subjects correctly leading to an area under the curve of 0.93. The content of the five SDQ-DP items mirrors well the mixed behavioral phenotype of anxious-depressive, aggressive and attention problems captured by the CBCL-DP. SDQ-DP status was highly correlated with CBCL-DP status and was best defined by a SDQ-DP score ≧5. Conclusions: The psychometric properties of the SDQ-DP have been robustly tested and validated. Based on these results, clinicians may use the SDQ-DP as a useful and economical screening measure to improve the assessment, prevention, and treatment of severe dysregulation in childhood and adolescence. Future investigations should study the longitudinal stability, heritability, and genetic associations of this behavioral phenotype. / Dieser Beitrag ist mit Zustimmung des Rechteinhabers aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw.

O conceito de segurança nasceu com o homem primitivo ao lutar diariamente para sobreviver contra os ataques de predadores. Com o passar dos anos foram surgindo parâmetros de sobrevivência e segurança em quase todas as atividades de trabalho. Na área de saúde e de enfermagem este tema tem mobilizado esforços das organizações de saúde no sentido de evitar falhas nos processos de cuidado que possam causar eventos adversos aos pacientes. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória, descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa, com o objetivo de analisar a aplicação do checklist da cirurgia segura no centro cirúrgico para a segurança do paciente. O estudo foi conduzido utilizando-se a técnica de grupos focais e métodos fotográficos de pesquisa, na perspectiva do pensamento ecológico restaurativo, entre o período de março e junho de 2014. As informações foram organizadas com o recurso do programa NVivo 10 e submetidas à análise de conteúdo do tipo temática, surgiram três categorias: Checklist para a segurança do paciente: ainda um desafio, Motivos da não adesão ao checklist da Cirurgia Segura, Etapas do Checklist. Os resultados ressaltam que o checklist é de suma importância e contribui como uma barreira para prevenir possíveis erros de lateralidade do procedimento cirúrgico e de troca de paciente na sala operatória, além de assegurar a correta identificação do paciente no momento do preparo para ingressar no centro cirúrgico. Nos debates foi ressaltado que o grupo pesquisado conhece o instrumento para a realização do checklist da cirurgia segura, porém, refere ter dificuldades para o preenchimento do mesmo, principalmente devido à necessidade de agilizar o processo e encaminhar rapidamente o paciente à sala de cirurgia. Foi percebido que existem falhas no preenchimento do protocolo da cirurgia segura, em algumas situações o instrumento é preenchido antes de iniciar a cirurgia ou após o término da mesma. É fundamental envolver e comprometer as equipes médicas para a aplicação do checklist da cirurgia segura, além de (re) orientar e empoderar as equipes de enfermagem, a fim de seguir corretamente o protocolo da lista de verificação instituída, minimizando situações de desvalorização e ridicularização da rotina. A aplicação de maneira correta desse protocolo contribui para o reconhecimento assistencial das equipes na instituição. A natureza participativa do método de pesquisa fotográfico restaurativo oportunizou o engajamento dos profissionais do campo de estudo e possibilitou implementar muitas melhorias, a partir de sugestões e propostas dos mesmos. Outro aspecto que merece ser destacado, diz respeito ao duplo papel de pesquisador e gestor da instituição investigada, que permitiu traduzir os conhecimentos produzidos a partir do estudo em ações no cenário da prática assistencial, transformando-o em um ambiente mais seguro para o paciente. / The security concept was born with primitive man to fight daily to survive against attacks by predators. Over the years arose survival and safety parameters in almost all work activities. In the health and nursing area this theme has mobilized efforts of health organizations to avoid gaps in care processes that may cause adverse events to patients. This is an exploratory, descriptive research with a qualitative approach, in order to analyze the application of the safe surgery checklist in the operating room for patient safety. The study was conducted using the technique of focus groups and photographic research methods from the perspective of restorative ecological thinking, in the period between March and June 2014. The information was organized with the use of NVivo program 10 and subjected to analysis of thematic content, there were three categories: Checklist for patient safety: still a challenge, Reasons for non-adherence to the Safe Surgery Checklist, Steps Checklist. The results emphasize that the checklist is very important and contributes as a barrier to prevent possible errors laterality of the surgical procedure and patient exchange in the operating room, and ensure the correct identification of the patient while preparing to enter the operating room. In the discussions it was stressed that the group researched know the instrument for the achievement of the safe surgery checklist, however, concerns have trouble completing it, mainly because of the need to streamline the process and quickly refer the patient to the operating room. It was noticed that there are errors in the completion of the safe surgery protocol, in some situations the instrument is filled before starting surgery or after the same. It is essential to involve and engage the medical teams to the application of the safe surgery checklist, and (re) direct and empower the nursing staff in order to properly follow the established checklist protocol, minimizing devaluation situations and ridicule of routine. The application correctly this protocol contributes to the recognition of care teams in the institution. The participatory nature of the photographic restorative search method provided an opportunity to engage the professional field of study and made it possible to implement many improvements from suggestions and proposals from them. Another aspect that deserves to be highlighted concerns the dual role of researcher and manager of the investigated institution, which translated the knowledge produced from the study into shares in the care practice setting, turning it into a safer environment for the patient. / El concepto de seguridad nació con el hombre primitivo que luchar a diario para sobrevivir contra los ataques de los depredadores. Con los años surgieron parámetros de supervivencia y seguridad en casi todas las actividades de trabajo.

Se trata de una investigación exploratoria, descriptiva con enfoque cualitativo, con el fin de analizar la aplicación de la lista de verificación de la seguridad quirúrgica en el quirófano para la seguridad del paciente. El estudio se realizó mediante la técnica de grupos focales y los métodos de investigación fotográficos desde la perspectiva del pensamiento ecológico restaurativa, en el período comprendido entre marzo y junio de 2014. La información se organizó con el uso del programa NVivo 10 y se sometió a análisis de contenido temático, había tres categorías: Lista de verificación para la seguridad del paciente: sigue siendo un reto, Razones para la no adhesión a la Lista de verificación de cirugía segura, Pasos Lista de verificación. Los resultados ponen de manifiesto que la lista es muy importante y contribuye como una barrera para evitar posibles errores de lateralidad del procedimiento y paciente intercambio quirúrgica en el quirófano, y garantizar la correcta identificación del paciente mientras se preparan para entrar en la sala de operaciones. En los debates se destacó que el grupo investigado conocen el instrumento para el logro de la lista de verificación cirugía segura, sin embargo, las preocupaciones tienen problemas para completarla, principalmente a causa de la necesidad de racionalizar el proceso y rápidamente derivar al paciente a la sala de operaciones. Se observó que hay errores en la finalización del protocolo de cirugía segura, en algunas situaciones el instrumento se llena antes de comenzar la cirugía o después de la misma. Es esencial involucrar y comprometer a los equipos médicos a la aplicación de la lista de verificación de la seguridad quirúrgica y (re) dirigir y capacitar al personal de enfermería con el fin de seguir correctamente el protocolo de lista de control establecido, minimizando situaciones de devaluación y el ridículo de rutina. La aplicación correcta de este protocolo contribuye al reconocimiento de los equipos de atención en la institución. El carácter participativo del método de búsqueda restaurador fotográfico proporcionado una oportunidad para entablar el campo profesional de estudio e hizo posible la implementación de muchas mejoras de sugerencias y propuestas de ellos. Otro aspecto que merece ser destacado se refiere a la doble función de investigador y director de la institución investigada, que tradujo el conocimiento producido a partir del estudio en acciones en el ámbito de la práctica de atención, convirtiéndola en un entorno más seguro para el paciente.
