  • Anticipated regret to increase uptake of colorectal cancer screening (Artics)

    Open AccessRonan E O'Carroll, Julie A Chambers et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2015Cited by: 5References: 35

    Screening is important for early detection of colorectal cancer. Our aim was to determine whether a simple anticipated regret (AR) intervention could increase uptake of colorectal cancer screening. A randomised controlled trial of a simple, questionnaire-based AR intervention, delivered alongside existing pre-notification letters, was conducted. A total of 60,000 adults aged 50-74 years from the Scottish National Screening programme were randomis…

  • Stability of Two Piagetian Scales with Severely and Profoundly Retarded Children

    Open AccessA B Silverstein, Linda Brownlee et al.ARTICLEEducational and Psychological…1981

    Corman and Escalona's scales for Object Permanence and Spatial Relationships were administered to 98 severely and profoundly retarded children on three occasions, with intervals of six months between successive administrations. Correlations between the scores on the three administrations ranged from .76 to .87, and the mean change was less than one point on each of the scales. These findings demonstrate the high stability of the scales when envir…

  • Attitudinal versus ecological approaches to the characterization of institutional treatment environments

    Open AccessRichard E McLain, Arthur B Silverstein et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Community…1979References: 7

    The relational and discriminative properties of attitudinal and ecological measures of environments were examined within the context of a state hospital for mentally retarted clients. Three hypotheses were advanced, and the results gave substantial support for one of these and partial support for a second: (a) that the correlations between attitudinal and ecological measures should not differ significantly from zero, and (b) that differences amon…

  • Characteristics of the Treatment Environment

    Open AccessA B Silverstein, Richard E McLain et al.ARTICLEEducational and Psychological…1977

    Intercorrelations among the 72 items of the CTE—Characteristics of the Treatment Environment—were factored for three samples of attendants at institutions for the mentally retarded. The results differed from those of previous factor analytic studies of the CTE, which also conflicted with one another. A two-factor oblique solution was finally accepted, and the items were grouped into scales corresponding to the two factors, which were identified a…

  • Measuring Differences in Residential Environments among Institutions for Retarded Persons

    Open AccessRichard E McLain, A B Silverstein et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports1977

    Two questionnaires, administered to selected treatment staff of institutions for retarded persons, discriminated not only among living units within these facilities but among the facilities themselves, were only minimally related to the staffs' background characteristics, and were relatively stable over time. Consequently these instruments show promise for determining the differential effects of various residential or treatment environments upon …

  • Comparison of the residential environment of a state hospital for retarded clients with those of various types of community facilities

    Open AccessRichard E McLain, Arthur B Silverstein et al.ARTICLEJournal of Community Psychology1977References: 2

    Two questionnaires, Characteristics of the Treatment Environment (CTE) and the Residential Management Survey (RMS), were administered on two occasions to the staffs of various types of community residential facilities serving retarded persons. The results were consistent with those of previous studies of public institutions, i.e., the responses of staff to the questionnaires were only minimally related to their demographic characteristics and emp…

  • Structure of Ordinal Scales of Psychological Development in Infancy

    Open AccessA B Silverstein, Richard E McLain et al.ARTICLEEducational and Psychological…1976

    Intercorrelations among Uzgiris and Hunt's scales for 2 samples of infants were subjected to cluster analysis and factor analysis. The results of these procedures were similar for both samples, 3 clusters from the first analysis resembling 3 factors from the second. The findings were also consistent with Uzgiris and Hunt's observations on the structure of the scales
