This study investigated and compared the perceived and demonstrated maternal role competence of adolescent mothers. The subjects were 32 mothers who delivered by vaginal delivery, were primipara, and had normal healthy babies. The two criterion measures of perceived and demonstrated maternal role competence were the Parenting Sense of Competence Scale and the Method for Observation of Maternal and Infant Behavior. Data were collected between 12 and 24 hours post‐delivery for each mother. The results of data analysis indicated that there was no significant correlation between the perceived and demonstrated maternal role competence of adolescent mothers. The result lends support to the viewpoint that perceptions and attitudes are inconsistent with behavior. There are direct implications from this study concerning the appropriate methods for assessing the maternal role competence of adolescent mothers. However, additional research would be helpful to identify more effective and efficient methods for assessin...

Hypoglycemia is a common sequel of neonatal‐perinatal asphyxia. As hypoglycemia may result in irreversible and severe neurologic aftermath, its detection and treatment are major goals of neonatal care. The maintenance of adequate blood glucose concentrations, during the course of and following asphyxia, is important to prevent the adverse effects of hypoglycemia on the brain. A routine screening program designed for infants at risk for hypoglycemia is a preventive measure against loss of human potential and economic waste. The nurse is the primary manager and initiator of such a screening program, one that can exist in harmony with family‐centered maternity care.

As women progressively enter the workplace, they are becoming more susceptible to psychophysiological distress, and the strain of meeting multiple role demands could adversely affect their health and health‐seeking behavior. The purpose of this study was to further investigate the incidence of mind‐body distress disorders and absence from work due to illness among business and professional women. Data from 103 women self‐identified as employed in the business and professional sectors were obtained via questionnaire. The results of the study indicated that all of the women were experiencing mind‐body distress disorders. For the variables of interest, there were no statistically significant differences across the marital groups: single; married; separated/widowed or divorced (SWD). However, the presence and number of children at home had significant effects on the days spent in bed due to illness and the reasons for consulting health providers for the SWD groups. The findings of the study suggest that multi...

This article describes and illustrates a conceptual model for nurses who wish to assist clients in attaining or maintaining sexual health. The Sexual Health Model for Nursing Intervention provides form and direction for nurses at all levels when they address client concerns or problems related to sexual health. Interactions between the nurse and the client are the foundation of all the components in this model. The four steps of the nursing process encompass all the other processes and approaches contained within the model. The communication, therapeutic, and teaching processes define the role and skills of the nurse. The adaptation of the PLISSIT model, contained within the processes, is a hierarchy of interventions that guide the nurse's activities. The use of the model can assist nurses in making an important contribution to client sexual health.

Few women have remained unaffected by the menace of the telephone age‐the obscene phone call. This is a report of an obscene phone call received by a woman who, with her husband, had sought sex therapy for her inhibited sexual desire. The obscene phone caller, claiming to be a psychiatrist whom her husband had consulted, exhorted her to perform sexual acts to prevent her spouse's alleged suicide. Questions about magical solution, the mystique of the male medical authority figure, and the progress of sex therapy after the incident are discussed. The need for crisis intervention for telephone rape is explored.

The study evaluated the knowledge and attitudes of sophomore nursing students toward human sexuality, and compared their scores with national normative values for nursing students and undergraduate, nonmedical females. Further, the effect that a five‐credit hour, human sexuality course had on the students was investigated. The Sex Knowledge and Attitude Test, developed by Lief and Reed, was utilized. The students’ pre‐ and posttest scores were analyzed, including sample size, group means, and standard deviations. There were significant differences of knowledge scores on (1) the pre‐ and posttest scores of the sophomore nursing students, and (2) the post‐test scores of the second‐year nursing students and the national undergraduate, nonmedical females. The national nursing students’ scores and the sophomore nursing students’ posttest scores did not indicate significant differences. The attitudinal section of the questionnaire was divided into four sections—autoeroticism, abortion, acceptance of sexual myth...

A case study approach was used to study a 36‐year‐old Southern black female for several weeks following a hypertensive crisis episode. The purpose of the study was to establish trust and understanding between the culturally different black client and white nurse. The Betty Neuman model of nursing care was used in developing an ethnocare plan for the subject. Cultural Stressors identified were: (1) obesity and dietary habits, evidence of the “soul food”; diet and salt, saturated fats, and cholesterol; (2) smoking, used as a coping mechanism when under self‐perceived stress; (3) noncom‐pliance in taking hypertensive drugs, which reflects cultural beliefs and feelings; (4) lack of understanding about the disease process, an example of cultural difference in language and beliefs; (5) inability to be a biological mother (the ability to produce children is perceived by the black culture as necessary to the fulfillment of the woman's role); and (6) living in a hostile environment. The ethnocare plan addressed ea...

This study was to compare differences in stress levels, stress responses, and Stressors between male and female managers, executives, and professionals in Shreveport, Louisiana, New Orleans, Louisiana, Lake Charles, Louisiana, and Houston, Texas. A self‐administered 467‐item questionnaire with multiple‐choice and true/false format (Stress Vector Analysis—Research Edition) was the method of data collection. The tests were computer‐scored. The subscale scores were analyzed using analysis of variance. Male versus female Stressor strength comparisons were done by i‐test. Women in the sample reported a higher overall level of stress, and their Stressors appeared to be primarily familial, not job‐related. Managerial, executive, and professional women responded to stress with more reported illness, medical consultations, work loss, medication usage, and mental health consultations. They indicated greater incidence of mental problems, stress‐related disorders, and positive family histories for stress‐related diso...
