    Restorative health" is the idea that those who have been denied access to the social determinants of health, particularly as young children, should have the right to restoration of healthy functioning.

Participants were living on the street, in extreme poverty, or both. Traumatic ea…

  • Theatre in Aids education-a controlled study

    Lawrence Elliott, Laurence Gruer et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care1996

    Theatre is now widely used in HIV and AIDS education for young people. However, research concerning its effectiveness has largely been conducted without using comparison or control groups and there is little evidence that other types of intervention are more or less effective. The present study was designed to measure the effects of a theatre production on HIV knowledge, attitudes and risk behaviour of young people compared with that of a standar…

  • Use of social support in a transition house for abused women

This framework was developed using a phenomenological approach. In the framework can be fou…

It is found that the changes between broad groups are small. The chief effect is an increased expenditure in the larger families on food and children's clothing, compensated by reduced expenditure on luxuries and adult clothing. It is confirmed that expenditure on accommodation does not rise with…
