A Fourth Trimester Action Plan for Wellness

Expectant mothers/couples often report planning for early parenting is overwhelming. Lack of anticipatory planning makes evident the need for providers, like childbirth educators, to assist expectant parents in minimizing or eliminating the problems associated with the transition to the fourth trimester, early parenthood. Planning for birth should extend beyond labor and birth to include the weeks following. The author's purpose is to explore the problems associated with the fourth trimester, to review the current health-related literature, and to propose an integrated behavioral action plan as an effective strategy. Self-efficacy constructs support a wellness plan approach to enable expectant mothers/couples to be proactive in preparing for their physical and emotional needs after the arrival of their newborn.

Development and Use of the ‘SENS’-Structure to Proactively Identify Care Needs in Early Palliative Care—An Innovative Approach

Anticipatory planning for end of life requires a common language for discussion among patients, families, and professionals. Studies show that early Palliative Care (PC) interventions based on a problem-oriented approach can improve quality of life, support decision-making, and optimize the timing of medical treatment and transition to hospice services. The aim of this quality-improvement project was to develop a pragmatic structure meeting all clinical settings and populations needs. Based on the Medical Research Council (MRC) framework, a literature review identifying approaches commonly used in PC was performed. In addition, more than 500 hospital-based interprofessional consultations were analyzed. Identified themes were structured and compared to published approaches. We evaluated the clinical usefulness of this structure with an online survey among professionals. The emerged ‘SENS’-structure stands for: Symptoms patients suffer from; End-of-life decisions; Network around the patient delivering care; and Support for the carer. Evaluation among professionals has confirmed that the ‘SENS’-structure covers all relevant areas for anticipatory planning in PC. ‘SENS’ is useful in guiding patient-centered PC conversations and pragmatic anticipatory planning, alongside the regular diagnosis-triggered approach in various settings. Following this approach, ‘SENS’ may facilitate systematic integration of PC in clinical practice. Depending on clearly defined outcomes, this needs to be confirmed by future randomized controlled studies.

ANALISIS MENGENAI DERAJAT KESABARAN MAHASISWA FIKOM UNPAD 2005 YANG BERMASALAH DALAM SKRIPSI

This study aimed to describe and analyze the degree of patience among Padjajaran University Communication student class of 2005 with GPA of 2.75 minimum, is problematic when finishing thesis viewed from the perspective of Qur’an and Hadith. The concept of patient has a dimension related to the firm on the establishment, determination and perseverance which is elaborated in the indicators contained related matters which is in line with the Psychological concept, such as: in the form of behavioral consequent, consistent, endurance, fighting spirit, the existence of stress tolerance, openness to the feedback, also having an anticipatory planning. Therefore measuring instrument is constructed based on the lattice. The samples were 10 people taken in incidental population of 21 students which is still problematic in the completion of their thesis. Results showed that most of the students who studied in general in fact possess sufficient degree of patience on that level when they face various obstacles, which are supported by its firm commitment to the establishment and resilient. However, in the aspect of perseverance, they generally have very low levels. From this description it can be concluded that even if they are problematic but they are still consistent and ready to accept the consequences of all the risks in formulating thesis is accompanied by resistance to continue with his willingness to receive feedback. However, they are problematic in making a thorough planning and anticipation so that when faced with obstacles, they were not ready to handle it. These weaknesses, if it is related to the concept of psychology, are closely related to the weakness of students' ability in self-regulation when preparingtheir thesis.

Cognitive capacities for cooking in chimpanzees

The transition to a cooked diet represents an important shift in human ecology and evolution. Cooking requires a set of sophisticated cognitive abilities, including causal reasoning, self-control and anticipatory planning. Do humans uniquely possess the cognitive capacities needed to cook food? We address whether one of humans' closest relatives, chimpanzees ( Pan troglodytes ), possess the domain-general cognitive skills needed to cook. Across nine studies, we show that chimpanzees: (i) prefer cooked foods; (ii) comprehend the transformation of raw food that occurs when cooking, and generalize this causal understanding to new contexts; (iii) will pay temporal costs to acquire cooked foods; (iv) are willing to actively give up possession of raw foods in order to transform them; and (v) can transport raw food as well as save their raw food in anticipation of future opportunities to cook. Together, our results indicate that several of the fundamental psychological abilities necessary to engage in cooking may have been shared with the last common ancestor of apes and humans, predating the control of fire.
