LAWYER OCCUPATIONAL STRESS (FLORIDA)Unknown Date (has links)
This was an investigation of lawyer occupational stress. The responses (n = 310) of a systematic random sample (n = 1,076) of the total in-state Florida attorney population (N = 30,128) were analyzed for statistically significant relationships between the dependent variable, lawyer occupational stress, and the independent variables physical well being, regressive coping techniques, social well being, number of years in practice and the size of law firm. Demographic data were collected. / The Lawyer Stress and Life Style Inventory was especially developed for this study. Reliability analysis of pilot test data from the stress scale yielded a Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient of.92. / A lawyer occupational stress regression model was tested with 12 possible predictor variables i.e., social well being, alcohol use, cigarette use, physical exercise, caffeine consumption, depression, worry, physical well being, TV, age, weight and height. / Depression, age, worry and physical well being were statistically significant at the.05 level. A post hoc stepwise regression analysis added "lack of knowledge about how to relax" to the final prediction model which explained 20 percent of the variance of lawyer occupational stress. / The Lawyer Stress Inventory, The Lawyer Stress and Life-Style Inventory and the Lawyer Occupational Stress Index are presented along with an integration of the study with past stress and burnout research, recommendations for future research and suggestions for practical applications. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 48-12, Section: A, page: 3053. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1987.

Valuing Experience| Assessing Constructivist Approaches to Counselor SupervisionHalligan Avery, Erin M. 17 June 2015 (has links)
<p> Counselor supervision has evolved as a skillset unique from counseling in the last 30 years. Approaches to counselor supervision, often created with counselor developmental models in mind, are examined, and the author claims that a combination of postmodern approaches to counselor supervision (narrative, systemic, reflective, and IPR strategies), referred to as constructivist approaches, are worthy of additional consideration and assessment. However, no instrument currently exists that validates constructivist approaches to counselor supervision. The purpose of this dissertation was to explore constructivist themes and characteristics associated with constructivist supervisors and supervisees' preference for each of the constructivist supervisor characteristics. The author sent a peer-reviewed and pilot-tested Constructivist Supervisor Scale to multiple counselor supervises. A principal components analysis was used to determine how many components are representative of constructivist supervision. Three components were revealed during the exploratory process: Warm and non-directive relationship, past and present experiences, and acceptance of various styles. Results also revealed that supervisees preferred constructivist supervisor characteristics. Future supervisors can use the Constructivist Supervisor Scale to determine whether constructivist methods are being used during supervision. The Constructivist Supervisor Scale can also be used to assess supervisees' preference for constructivist supervisor characteristics. </p>

Minority student persistence in college: A longitudinal, qualitative studyTucker, Debra L., 1966- January 1998 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine minority student college persistence. The research setting was a public, Research I institution located in the Southwest. A longitudinal, qualitative research approach was used in which twenty-five students were interviewed at the beginning of their freshmen year, and again, approximately seven years later. Through the analysis of the minority students' experience, a theory of minority student persistence was developed called the Theory of Navigation. The results indicate that minority students experience college differently than their white students cohort. Traditional theories of student persistence do not fully explain their experience. The findings of this research could affect how colleges nationwide serve their minority student populations.

The influence of the principals' leadership styles, attitudes, and beliefs on program diffusionBowers, Judy Louise Eichelberg January 2004 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect that the principals' leadership styles, attitudes, and beliefs, and school district leadership had on the successful implementation of a new innovation in elementary schools such as the Comprehensive Competency Based Guidance (CCBG) program. This study was conducted in a small, fast growing rural district in southwestern United States during the spring of 2003. Subjects interviewed in this study were five elementary principals, three elementary counselors, one governing board member, one assistant superintendent, and one student services director. When the elementary CCBG program was first implemented in the Mountain Vista School District (MVSD) in 1991, three counselors worked part-time at each of seven schools. District leadership, not site leadership, proved to be the most important factor in the diffusion of the CCBG program. District leadership provided strong direction to principals to implement a CCBG program where counselors would work in the classroom with all students. One high school counselor took the impetus to improve the high school counseling program in 1986 and created a personal vision which grew into a district vision. District leadership in the MVSD came to share a common vision to increase the number of counselors in the district to fully implement the CCBG program. A governing board member, an assistant superintendent, and the student services director were the influential district leaders. This study confirms that successful implementation of an innovation must have the advocacy of the governing board and district administrators to successfully implement an innovation. Principals provided the site support for the implementation of the CCBG program while district leaders keep the focus on using counselors to implement the CCBG program and working to fund additional elementary counselors. Results of the interviews also revealed that an innovation champion and change agent is needed to diffuse a program and take it from the agenda setting stage of the innovation process to the routinizing stage. The student services director was the innovation champion and her work for 17 years was essential in routinizing the CCBG program.

State vs. trait anxiety in sexually abused women: An exploratory studyHilgeford, Rachel Anne, 1962- January 1992 (has links)
Childhood sexual abuse in adult women has many adulthood clinical manifestations, with one of them being anxiety. Adult women with histories of sexual abuse (n = 18) were compared to adult women without histories of sexual abuse (n = 19). The Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, the Anxious Self-Statements Questionnaire, and a sexual abuse questionnaire were used to obtain information about the past abuse and present anxious symptomology. Women with histories of sexual abuse had higher levels of state and trait anxiety, and had a higher incidence of anxious thoughts. Most women found the sexual abuse to be "very traumatic" at the time it was happening, and for some, the traumatic impact of the abuse had decreased over time. There did appear to be a relationship between the perpetrator, length of abuse, and severity of the abuse, although there were not enough women to calculate these differences.

Self-esteem and self-perception of adolescent mothersRenfro, Carol Jean, 1943- January 1990 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ratings of self-esteem and self-perception by adolescent mothers who participated in an adolescent parent program. Self-esteem and self-perception were measured prior to participation in the program and again upon completion. The population for this study consisted of adolescent mothers between the ages of 15 and 20, none of which had completed high school. The two instruments utilized in the study were the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (1985) and the Harter Self-Perception Scale for Adolescents (1988). Self-esteem and scholastic competence scores increased to a statistically significant degree after participation in the program. The values represented a 12.8% increase in self-esteem scores and an 18.2% increase in scholastic competence scores. Although not statistically significant, all other subscales increased between 5.4% and 12.2%, with an average of 9.2%.
