It brings together the latest published peer-reviewed literature, conceptual approaches, outcome measures, and intervention approaches to address the three main areas by: Identifying a finite set of interventions which occupational therapists deliver most often, and providing details of those intervention approaches; Identifying where the research evidence shows that occupational therapists can achieve specific positive effects as a result of those interventions; Identifying the outcome measures most commonly and reliably used by researchers in occupational therapy to demonstrate the effects of interventions. The authors have comprehensively reviewed all of the intervention effectiveness literature for occupational therapy provided for adults. The material reviewed crosses all diagnostic categories and areas of practice for adults and older adults. Analysis of over 500 research studies and systematic reviews form the basis for this book.

Download or read book Imports Exports and the American Worker written by Susan M. Collins and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will technological improvement and growth in the rest of the world cause a decline in American living standards? Can government policy in Japan and Western Europe limit the availability of high- wage jobs in America? Does expanding trade with Mexico and other developing countries with large numbers of inexpensive workers imply a continuing decline in wages for low-skilled American workers? These questions express a widespread concern about potential negative effects of import competition on domestic labor markets, but ignore potential gains to U.S. workers from exports abroad. Through U.S. exports, the rest of the world is an increasingly large indirect employer of U.S. workers, and through imports, foreign labor is an increasingly important potential substitute for U.S. workers. Bringing together the often diverse perspectives of international economists, labor economists, and policymakers, this volume analyzes how international trade affects the level and distribution of wages and employment in the United States, examines the need for government intervention, and evaluates policy options.

Book excerpt: This is a bundle of no less than SIX previously-released stories. They are the first six episodes in the on-going “Femdom Future” series. 1. Rigorous Retraining In a near-future femdom world, being unemployed and male is a crime, punishable by retraining in special centres staffed by cruel sadistic females. Prime Minister Tessa March is a no-nonsense disciplinarian who has decided that what the country needs is good old-fashioned discipline. Rigorous retraining for anti-social sexists! 2. More Rigorous Retraining In a near-future femdom UK, ruled by Prime Minister Tessa March, a no-nonsense disciplinarian, it has been decided that what the country needs is good old-fashioned discipline. Rigorous retraining for anti-social sexists! Being unemployed and male is now a crime, punishable by retraining in special centres staffed by cruel sadistic females. As time passed, the regime of the camps has become more rigorous. Trainees have become slaves in all but name, and their names replaced by numbers… 3. The Auction The changes wrought by Tessa March's all-female administration have transformed the country. The majority of men have now passed through rigorous retraining; and many of them have entered into servitude as punishment for criminal behaviour! Their names replaced by code-numbers, subject to stern discipline, kept naked and in chastity, modern life is no bed of roses for the male sex! 4. National Domestic Service Although up in London nude males are already bought and sold and serve as slaves in all sorts of ways, including in public as beasts of burden pulling buggies for ladies, the rest of the country is not quite so advanced. Originally male servitude was intended only for criminals and work-shy layabouts; but the demand for male ‘servants’ (as they are still euphemistically called) has so exceeded the supply that the government has introduced “National Domestic Service”. Now, youths of eighteen must do a full year of in service to a householder — that is to say, a woman aged twenty-five or over. Of course, there are strict rules to prevent abuse; but where there's a will, there's a way, as many a hapless youth has already discovered! And now a ‘new boy’ is going to make that discovery for himself… 5. Punishment Prison This is a look into the future. A future when women have become fully liberated and universally recognised as the Superior Sex. A future where Women command and men obey. It is a Femdom Future. In this, the fifth installment of Miranda Birch's “Femdom Future” series, we see what awaits those recalcitrant males who refuse to submit and obey. In Punishment Prison, they will be broken: it is only a question of time. And meanwhile, the female Overseers are free to indulge their most sadistic whims, their most perverted fantasies… 6. Abuse of Power This is a look into the future. A future when women have become fully liberated and universally recognised as the Superior Sex. A future where women command and men obey. It is a Femdom Future. In “Punishment Prison”, we were introduced to the severe regime of Marston House. And how all males sent here are broken by cruel, sadistic females. In this, the sixth installment of the “Femdom Future” series, we see what special treatments are meted out to those inmates unlucky enough to attract the attention of authority. The female overseers have complete control of hem, and are free to indulge their most sadistic whims, their most perverted fantasies…

Download or read book Handbook of Health and Rehabilitation Psychology written by Anthony J. Goreczny and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 685 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite medical technological advances, the major killers with which we must currently contend have remained essentially the same for the past few decades. Stroke, cancer, and heart disease together account for the vast majority of deaths in the United States. In addition, due to improved medical care, many Americans who would previously have died now survive these disorders, necessitating that they receive appropriate rehabilitation efforts. One result of our own medical advances is that we must now accept the high costs associated with providing quality care to individuals who develop one of these problems, and we must avail ourselves to assist of afflicted individuals. families Despite the relative stability of causes of death and disability, the health-care field is currently experiencing tremendous pressures, both from professionals with in the field, who desire more and better technology than is currently available, and from the public and other payers of health care (e.g., insurance companies), who seek an end to increasing health-care costs. These pressures, along with an increased emphasis on providing evidence of cost-effectiveness and quality assurance, are substantially changing the way that health-care professionals perform their jobs.

Download or read book Cut Loose written by Victor Tan Chen and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Years after the Great Recession, the economy is still weak, and an unprecedented number of workers have sunk into long spells of unemployment, increasingly unlikely to get another good job in their lifetimes. Based on a careful crossnational comparison, "Cut Loose" describes the experiences of American and Canadian unemployed workers and the impact of the different social policies meant to help them. It focuses on a historically important group: autoworkers. Their well-paid factory jobs built a strong middle class in the decades after World War II. But today, they find themselves lost and beleaguered in a changed economy of greater inequality and risk, one that favors the well-educated--or well-connected. Their declining fortunes tell us something about what the white-collar workforce should expect in the years ahead, as job-killing technologies and the shipping of work overseas take away even more good jobs. Their frustrating experiences with retraining question whether education is really the cure-all it is made out to be. And their grim prospects in the job market reveal today's frenzied competition and harsh culture of judgment that has trickled down to a group long known for its strong belief in equality. "Cut Loose" provides a poignant look at how the long-term unemployed struggle in today's unfair economy to support their families, rebuild their lives, and cope with shame and self-blame. Yet it is also a call to action--a blueprint for a new kind of politics, one that offers a measure of grace in a society of ruthless advancement."--Provided by publisher.
