thesisNonorganic, or environmental failure to thrive (FTT) is a devastating syndrome of childhood. It is a problem that is prevalent among today's society. It has been identified in the literature since the late 19th century. Recognition of the complexity and the devastating effects of this problem has developed since the 1940's. The causative factor is not a single one, nor is it a clearly identifiable factor. Much of the research identified multiple factors, with mother-infant interaction and environment playing key roles. Authorities in this field advocate prevention of the syndrome through early identification. This study was undertaken to determine any significant differences between the environment and maternal-infant interaction of FTT children and thriving children. The theoretical framework for the study was based on the Barnard predictive nursing model. The design of the research study was descriptive, comparative and the sample population included 19 nonorganic FTT children and their mothers and 19 thriving children and their mothers from the Salt Lake area. Instruments utilized to obtain data were the Caldwell HOME Observation for Measurement of the Environment Scale (Birth to Three Years) and the Barnard Feeding Scale (Birth to One Year). The tools utilized in this study were specific for observational assessments of the child*s environment and the maternal-infant interaction. Findings from the study indicate that there are significant differences between scores on the HOME and Barnard Feeding Scale of the FTT group and the comparison group. The FTT group generally achieved lower scores on the scales than did the comparison group. Significant differences were observed in all areas on the Caldwell HOME scale except in the areas of avoidance of restriction and punishment and organization of environment. Differences between the two groups were noted in ail areas on the Barnard Feeding Scale except response to distress and responsiveness to parent. Nursing implications address the importance of prevention of this syndrome through early identification. By preventing the syndrome from occurring, the devastating effects can be prevented. Applications to the nurse clinician role were discussed. Recommendations for further research were presented

The double tongue: Translation and historiographic metafiction

This thesis studies the impact of the analysis of The Double Tongue as historiographic metafiction on its translation following a Functionalist Approach. The first section describes the framework in which the novel is set. The Double Tongue reveals similarities and innovations in comparison with other novels by William Golding. The most remarkable innovation is the choice of a female narrator. A concern with philosophical issues central to the story, and narrative features that characterize the novel as historiographic metafiction continue the tradition of some of his previous works. The next section offers a review of recent theories of translation and the principles followed in translating the novel. The translation of The Double Tongue into peninsular Spanish is followed by a study of the implications for translation entailed by the tenet that the novel is an example of historiographic metafiction. The enclosed appendix provides a glossary of ancient Greek history and mythology, for the sake of a fuller understanding of the intertextuality references

Handbook of sociological science : contributions to rigorous sociology

22 of the 26 chapters are Open AccessThe Handbook of Sociological Science offers a refreshing, integrated perspective on research programs and ongoing developments in sociological science. It highlights key shared theoretical and methodological features, thereby contributing to progress and cumulative growth of sociological knowledge. Reflecting ‘unity in diversity’, chapters explore a wide variety of research fields, ranging from cultural capital, migration, social networks, gender inequality, historical sociology and ethnography to the intersection of sociology and the life sciences. Examining basic methodological standards for theory construction and empirical research, the Handbook exemplifies commonalities between research programmes within these fields. The contributors also explore rigorous sociology related to theory construction, empirical research, and methods, including statistical modelling and the integration of theoretical and empirical research. Forward-thinking and original, the Handbook concludes by illustrating the common core of rigorous sociology, how it can contribute to understanding societal problems and to policy making, and how research into sociological science can continue to thrive in the future. Accessible and engaging, this Handbook will be invaluable for scholars and researchers of sociology and sociological theory, research methods in sociology and social policy, and comparative social policy. Exploring new developments and applications, it will also act as a useful reference guide for policy makers. The Handbook will likewise be an important resource for teaching advanced courses and training graduate students.INTRODUCTION 1.
