Research teams in five countries (France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, UK) developed in common a comparative study on individual attitudes and behaviors towards the environment, and on the importance of environmental issues in the media of these countries. The sample was composed of 742 subjects, teachers and engineers. Results presented here focus on a cross-countries comparison of the media analysis and the questionnaire data. Important differences are observed between the level of pro-environmental behaviors and the nature of their determinants.
This paper reports a 2 year audit of a family therapy clinic in a psychiatric department, focusing especially on the relationship between diagnosis and outcome. Patients with affective disorders–especially where anxiety predominated–and eating disorders had good outcome. Structural change occurred in families with psychotic members, even though psychotic symptoms were often unchanged. Difficulties with an acute onset were more responsive than long‐term problems, but a substantial number of the latter did improve. Families receiving between four and 10 sessions had the best outcome, and improvement was generally maintained at 2 year follow‐up.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
