Prevenzione primaria, counselling anti-fumo, comunicazione odontoiatra-paziente

2021

Il carcinoma a cellule squamose, la più frequente neoplasia maligna del cavo orale, è gravato da un elevato tasso di mortalità, spesso correlato a ritardo diagnostico, e da un forte impatto sulla qualità della vita nei pazienti che ne sono affetti. Si tratta di una malattia con fattori di rischio noti, prevenibile e facilmente diagnosticabile, nei confronti della quale, tuttavia, non sono messe in atto misure preventive appropriate sia di prevenzione primaria (controllo dei fattori di rischio) che di prevenzione secondaria (diagnosi precoce). L’incidenza di tale neoplasia, infatti, è aumentata negli ultimi decenni; parimenti, non sono stati rilevati significativi miglioramenti nei tassi di …

Alakoulun ohjausta kehittämässä : teoriaa ja käytäntöä

2013

Kehittämishankkeen eräänä tarkoituksena on antaa kokonaiskuva alakoulun oppilaanohjauksesta sekä osoittaa alakoulun ohjauksen tarpeellisuus. Ohjaus ja opettaminen eivät ole erillisiä, jokainen opettaja on samalla myös ohjaaja. Opetus on parhaimmillaan opiskelun ja oppimisen ohjaamista. Opettajan tehtäviin kuuluu myös kasvatus, oppilaan kasvun ja kehityksen tukeminen. Perusopetuslain mukaan oppijalla on oikeus saada opintojen ohjausta. Peruskoulun tavoitteena ovat jatko-opinnot ja paikka alati muuttuvassa työelämässä; jos jo alakoulussa on opintojen ohjausta, on yläkoulussa ja jatko-opinnoissa ohjaaminen ja opiskelu todennäköisesti helpompaa. Perusopetuksen opetussuunnitelman perusteiden muk…

The Role of Parasocial Interaction and Teleparticipation on Teleshopping Behaviour

2011

Nowadays, television media has evolved into an important channel of direct selling that brands and advertisers are exploiting. Many technological changes (e.g., digital television appearance or the integration of Internet in the TV medium and mobile technology) have increasingly led to consumers see television as a channel for purchasing products and services and as a source of information (Beyer et al., 2007). However, researchers have put little interest on teleshopping, one of the consumer behaviour phenomena.

Designing patient education and counseling practices

2013

Patient education and counselling are essential constituents of interaction between a patient and a healthcare organisation. This study explores patient education and counselling practices, focusing on the opportunities of modern technology in the development of interaction with patients. With the help of a qualitative study we illustrate nurses' conceptions about the topic and discuss future opportunities. Our approach is distinctively patient centred; all discussion about the use of technology is from the point-of-view of patient's well-being and empowerment.

Career counselling at Indian universities : Cases from different regions

2019

Career studies indicate that individuals are increasingly responsible for their own careers, which seem to be more diverse than ever. This raises a question for universities regarding how they can develop their career counselling services so that students receive the help and guidance they need to manage their careers. Previous studies show that women have more difficulties advancing in a career than men. To increase women’s career opportunities and empower them to participate in working life, ultimately increasing gender equality in society and at work, women’s career counselling at universities needs special attention. In this study, career counselling at Indian universities in different …
