Predictors of Tertiary Accounting Students' Academic Performance
Awareness of factors associated with academic performance in tertiary accounting education courses is useful for selection officers, educators, administrators and students. Yet research shows findings relating to this topic area to be inconclusive. Also, investigations are typically cross-sectional rather than longitudinal, and as such can have limited application. Furthermore, issues concerning the effect on academic performance of transferring …
Differences between Anglo-Celtic and Italian Caregivers of Dependent Elderly Persons
This paper describes a preliminary investigation of differences in family caregiving in Australia. Forty-eight Italian-born family caregivers of dependent elderly persons were compared with 461 caregivers of Anglo-Celtic origin on measures reflecting psychological health and well-being, and on a range of socio-demographic variables. The latter had participated in the national Caring for Family Caregivers (CFC) group programme; the former are resi…
A longitudinal study of the grief of mothers and fathers of children with intellectual disability
As a follow‐up to a single‐point‐in‐time study which suggested support for the proposition that grieving is an ongoing feature of parenting children with intellectual disability, the present investigation reports findings based on annual interviews conducted over a three‐year period. Longitudinal outcomes on measures used to define grief largely confirmed the original findings. Of particular interest were ( a ) indications of the presence of grie…
Grieving related to development
It is argued that a child with intellectual disability represents an ongoing source of loss and grief for parents. A developmental framework was employed to compare three age cohorts of parents. Grief was operationalized within the affective, behavioural and cognitive domains. Measures of intrusive thoughts, avoidance behaviours, current emotional distress over reminders of time of diagnosis of disability, and intensity of wishing for what might …
Longitudinal outcomes of psychoeducational support for family caregivers of dependent elderly persons
The present study investigated the long-term impact of a small-group psychoeducational program on 51 individuals who were providing unpaid care for a dependent elderly relative or friend. As well, 13 caregivers in a comparable wait-list control group were followed up 12 months after pretesting. Quantitative and qualitative analytic procedures were used to assess the effectiveness of the program. Overall, psychological and behavioural indicators w…
Caring for Family Caregivers in Australia
The present paper describes and traces the emergence of an innovative psychoeducational model of support for family caregivers of dependent elderly persons, its associated systematic evaluation and leadership training process, provides details of a small group programme and its underlying philosophy, and reports on outcome evaluation research ascertained from both quantitative and qualitative data analyses. Details of these analyses are presented…
The psychological health of children, cost-effectiveness, and brief therapy
Despite the reports that as many as 15% of Australian children are in need of psychological help, only a small proportion, estimated to be as little as 2%, receive treatment by appropriately trained professionals. It appears that this situation has resulted from several factors. In comparison to funds allocated to other aspects of health care (e.g., maintaining hospital beds) substantially less is spent on psychological services. Of this limited …
