Sex differences in the psychological reactions of medical and surgical patients to crisis intervention counseling
The primary prevention of illness
There is evidence to be inferred from statistics about health status and mortality rates that a large proportion of illness and premature death is preventable. Primary prevention programmes appear to have had only limited success when individuals need to take responsibility for preserving their own health. This paper examines the concept of primary prevention and its assumptions, including the need to increase the sense of personal power of indiv…

Health care systems in Australia are focused primarily on the treatment of presenting illness. Much of this illness is known to be psycho-social in origin. Primary intervention, by psychologists among others, aimed at attempting to prevent such ill health therefore seems a most appropriate addition to the already existing systems. The concept of primary prevention is explored in this article, with a focus on the development of more competent copi…

Verbal samples were taken for analysis from the subjects before and after a period of counselling (or a period of no counselling fo…

Data from Papua New Guinea and Australian preschool children indicated that: (1) Papua New Guinea children made more fixed responses, as predicted, but showed fewer “giving up” reactions than Australian children; (2) no differences were found between children from two Papua New Guinea …
