Perceived provider barriers to collecting and documenting a complete family history in a statewide oncology consortium.

221 Background: A complete family history is essential in identifying patients who may benefit from genetic evaluation for hereditary cancer syndromes. Fewer than 40% of patients with cancer have a complete family history documented in their medical record. As part of a larger study of patient- and provider-focused interventions for increasing genetic testing, we conducted a survey of provider barriers to collecting and documenting a complete family history in a statewide, physician-led quality consortium of nearly all medical and gynecologic oncologists in Michigan. Methods: A novel survey instrument was created by adapting existing literature and clinician input. Surveys were mailed to medical and gynecologic oncologists with follow up electronic surveys sent to non-respondents. Questions addressed patient-specific barriers as well as known constraints faced by oncologists. Each barrier was rated from low to high using a 10-point Likert scale. Descriptive statistics, including mean scores and standard deviations (SD), were calculated. Results: Of 317 surveys sent, 194 (61.2%) were returned. Oncologists rated constraints on their time lower than lack of patient knowledge and understanding of their family history and its importance as a barrier. Open-ended responses indicated that the processes of collecting a family history (e.g. templates for collecting family history that omit age at diagnosis) and patients being overwhelmed at the time of consultation also interfered with collecting a complete family history. Conclusions: Oncologists perceive patient knowledge of their family history, including the ages of affected family members, and understanding of its importance as barriers to completion and documentation of a family history. Explaining the importance of the family history to patients, prompting new patients to provide their family history, and improving the process, including the timing of collection, may increase the proportion of oncology patients who have a complete family history collected and documented.[Table: see text]

Features of control of behavior of young people from complete and single-parent families

The paper is describe the study of features of control of behavior of young man and girl from complete and single-parent families. The data of 114 people aged 18 to 21 years (average age 19.7 years) were analyzed. Of these, 23 men from the complete family and 21 from the single-parent family (44 boys in total)? 38 girls from the complete family and 32girls from the incomplete family (70 girls in total) in terms of cognitive, emotional and volitional control, as components of unifying regulatory construct “control of behavior” (Sergienko, 2018). It was shown that the family type is important for the development of control of behavior for boys in comparison with girls. Boys from complete families have more developed abilities in the field of recognition and regulation of emotions in comparison with boys from single-parent families. In addition, for boys their age is important when the family has become incomplete from the position of the development of cognitive independence.

Zero-cycles on double EPW sextics

The Chow rings of hyperKähler varieties are conjectured to have a particularly rich structure. In this paper, we focus on the locally complete family of double EPW sextics and establish some properties of their Chow rings. First, we prove a Beauville–Voisin type theorem for zero-cycles on double EPW sextics; precisely, we show that the codimension-4 part of the subring of the Chow ring of a double EPW sextic generated by divisors, the Chern classes and codimension-2 cycles invariant under the anti-symplectic covering involution has rank one. Second, for double EPW sextics birational to the Hilbert square of a K3 surface, we show that the action of the anti-symplectic involution on the Chow group of zero-cycles commutes with the Fourier decomposition of Shen–Vial.

Performance Tasks and Socialization of Students with Broken Family

Broken family leads to children being raised by single parents, stepparents or others not related to the biological parents. The study used a univariate likert scale among senior high school students in Jagobiao National High School. There are questions to gather the data. Firstly, students with broken family reported that they perform differently compared to the students with complete family. They do not have the confidence to stand out in class and even socializing the people around them. The findings of the study is statistically not significant between performance task and socialization of the students with broken family because the Cross tabulation presented that performance task does not affect the students socialization. Majority of the students perform well with a complete family rather than the broken ones. A number of students have fair confidence to socialize with other people. Other students with incomplete family poorly perform their task and their socialization skills rated poor as well. Hence, most of the students with incomplete family satisfactory perform their task and their socialization skill rated as satisfactory also. The study accentuates that the two variables performance task and socialization of the students with broken family does not have a significant correlation.

Family Status and Self-Motivation in Studies

Family can inspire the child to perform well in school. When the students belong to a complete family they can gain more confidence to do the task. Students who have complete family can be encouraged themselves to produce positive learning style in their studies. When the student belongs to a broken family the set of behaviors can be different towards certain task. Using the correlation quantitative design, the study was conducted in the Jagobiao National High School-Senior High Department in which the data were treated with chi-square to determine the relationship between family status and self-motivation. As a result, family status and self-motivation has no significant correlation in studies of any students, self-motivation exist regardless of family status, broken and complete. The motivation of student deals with their innate behavior and attitude to achieve better academic performance.

The Innovations of Václav František Červený (1819–1896) and the Austrian-Czech Tradition of Making Chromatic Brass Instruments

Václav František Červený became the founder of the Austro-Czech tradition of manufacturing chromatic brass instruments, which represented in their day an alternative to Adolph Sax’s system. Červený’s innovations were realised successively from the 1840s through the ’80s. Many of these instruments are still being made and used mainly in the successor states of Austro-Hungarian Empire, Germany, and eastern Europe. The study focuses on Červený’s main innovations. Thanks to the solving of the technical problems associated with instrument bodies with a conical bore, Červený succeeded at creating a complete family of wide-bored instruments ranging from the flugelhorn to the contrabass tuba. These instruments became the foundation of Austro-Czech wind music and of its style of instrumentation.

Leisure Time in Family Life

The chapter in its first part presents changing understanding of leisure time in the past and currently. Major shifts have occurred in the increasing amount of free time and its democratization. The free time or leisure time is understood only just as a supplement or the rest after work; however, it has its intrinsic value, carries potential of freedom, self-realization, fun and relax. The text deals with leisure time functions and its meaning for individuals and complete family. It highlights issues that are connected with spending of leisure time. In the second part of the chapter, there are results of survey, which was mapping of family spending of free time, its amount and fulfilment. In all the surveyed countries, spending of leisure time has proved to be an important perquisite for family life satisfaction. Activities that are the most likely to be undertaken together with family members are watching TV, walks, trips, visits of friends or relatives, visits of cultural actions and social games.
