    Grandmother, Mother and Daughter: Changing agency of Indian, middle-class women, 1908-2008

    Covering one hundred years, this paper recounts the life stories of three generations of middle-class women of the New Delhi-based Kapoor family. By taking the methodological view that individuals born approximately at the same time, within the same class segment, and at the same cultural place will be shaped by the same historical structures so that their lives to some extent are synchronized into a gendered, generational experience, these three life stories are viewed as voices that reflect their respective generational class segments. In view of this, the paper uses the three life stories to discuss changes in women’s agency within the urban, educated, uppermiddle-class. Agency is here understood as control over resources, and it is argued that in order to understand changes in women’s agency, one should take into account the impact of both social, economic structures and cultural ideologies. When analysing the three life stories, the overall finding is that the granddaughter has had more control over her own life than her mother and grandmother. However, by acknowledging that cultural ideologies and social economic structures are not always synchronized, a nuanced and many-dimensional picture of twists and turns in these middle-class women’s degree and type of agency over time emerges

    Patients requiring medical care frequently experience increased levels of anxiety. This increase in anxiety may be attributed to fear of the medical examination, procedures to be performed, or the findings. Music therapy was tested as a possible intervention to reduce anxiety. The focus of this quasi-experimental study was to examine the influence of music therapy on adult patients in an outpatient clinic. The purpose of this study was to compare responses in adult patients who received music therapy while awaiting medical treatment in an outpatient setting and those who did not. Martha Rogers\u27 Unitary Human Beings served as the theoretical framework. A sample was obtained from patients awaiting medical care in a rural family medical clinic. The sample group completed the Demographic Survey and the Waldrop Patient Surveys. ANOVA was used to compare the groups. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data. Perceptual responses were scored using totaled percentiles per question. The researcher failed to reject the four hypotheses. The 111 hypotheses were there will be no: (a) change in physiologic responses, (b) perceptual responses, (c) correlation between age and physiologic responses, and (d) correlation between age and perceptual responses of patients who receive music therapy, white noise, or no music while awaiting medical care in an outpatient clinic
