Childrenwere referred from agencies and most had already unsuccessfully used special schoolservices. The average age was 5-5 years.average 10 was 83. and average mental age 4-3 years;scores on the Wide Range Achievement Test averaged earlykindergarten level.Utilizing spedal features in the physical plant. curriculum,and operation of the school. behavioral principles were applied to weaken behaviors interferingwith academic learning and to strengthen desirable social and intellectual behaviors.Reading. writing, and arithmetic programs were developed as well as procedures for maintainingmotivation for learning. Specific techniqueswere applied to modify the behavior of aggressive, shy, and speech deficient children. Investigators workedwith parents at home. and the parents supplemented thenursery program.

There have been, in addition,many undergraduate and grad- uate students who have servedas experimenters, Observers, tutors, and clerks. They have not only been indispensibleto the detailed operation of specific projects,but they have supplieda kind of enthusiasm and involvement that adda big plus to all research and teaching. Special gratitude is due thesecretary of the Child Behavior Laboratory, Mts. Hannah Murphy, whokept track of all aspects of the operationpersonnel, supplies,plant maintenance, publicre- lations, budget accounts, and reports--andengineered the produc- tion of this four-year report. Summary This report is a description ofresearch conducted during the past four years (1964.68). The objective of the studywas the construction of a well-balancedpreschool program through research and development based on empiricalbehavioral principles.The pro- gram, intended for exceptional children, ispreventive in nature in the sense that it attempts toarrest or slow down retardation in marginal children, marginal inthe sense that they are too retarded or disturbed to attend school butnot sufficiently deviant tore- quire institutional residentialcare. Investigations carried out with IuLea.37 and severelyretarded and disturbed youngsters haveshown that empirical behavioral principlescan be applied to the formula- tion of a technology ofnursery school guidance and psychotherapy. These studies provided background informationfor the undertaking described here. According to empirical behavioral principles,the child, the environment, and the interactionsbetween them are conceptualized in objective terms. The interactions refer to reflex (respondent) and operant conditicning, generalization,discrimination, abstrac- tion, conceptualization, chaining,extinction, setting conditions such as satiation-deprivation, andthe like. These principles have been derived mostly from laboratorystudies extending overmany years. According to this approach the retarded childwith problems is one who is handicapped because ofa history of particular bio- logical, physical, or social conditionsand interactions. The research strategy:in this investigationis representative of research and development. Princ*ples derived from the labora- tory are applied directly to the complexsituations involving pre- school education, parent counseling,and teacher training. Research is first intra-systematic, whichmeans that an individual child is studied experimentally ina one-to-one situation in the natural setting of the schoolor clinic. When empirical findings are demon- strated, they are duplicatedon other children and then incorporated into the teaching practices. Gradually a special preschool educa- tional technology is constructed. Research is then inter-systematic, i.e., group comparisonsare made between these approaches that have been developed and others. The children studiedare enrolled in a special nursery school. .The physical plant, curriculum, and operation ofthe school are described in some detail. There are explanations as to how the principles are applied in orderto weaken behaviors that interfere with academic learning, andto strengthen desirable social, intel- lectual, preacademic, and academic behaviors. Behavior modification and programming principlesare explicitly used in every activity during the entire school dal/. The reading, writing, and arithmetic programs developed for the program are described. Also discussed in this context are the procedures for Obtaining and maintaining high motivation for academic learning and for shaping appropriate attending behaviors and study habits. The research on behavior modification is also presented, with emphasis on the rationale and methodology. Examples of research in changing personal and social behavior are given for the aggressive child, the shy or behaviorally deficient child, and the speech deficient child. Research with parents of the children enrolled in the program is aimed at determining how the parentcan support and supplement the program developed for her child in the nursery school. The procedures involve Observation and analysis of the parent in actual relationships with her child. Examples of the methodology and findings from several investigations in the homeare given. Direct situational counseling is a natural inference from this line of investigation. Finally, an account is given of the application of principles to training the teachers who serve in the program. The principles applied are basically the same as those used to modifya child's social behavior or to improve his performance in arts, crafts, and academic skills, The terminal behaviors, steps in the program, and contingencies are different, as there is more stress on verbal skills and repertories. The aim of the training is to prepare teachers to set up terminal behaviors for the children, to work out details

  • More Verbal Remedies: Creative Writing by Medical Students 2016
    More Verbal Remedies Creative Writing by Medical Students 1 More Verbal Remedies Creative Writing by Medical Students Selected and edited by Helen Lynch and Olive M. Ritch 2 3 More Verbal Remedies Creative Writing by Medical Students Selected and edited by Helen Lynch and Olive M. Ritch 2 3 Foreword Why Medical Humanities and Creative Writing? The arts and humanities help us to make sense of our experiences, understand the world, who we are and perhaps who we want to be. As medical students and future clinicians the third year students who study creative writing, as their medical humanities option, are taking time to connect with this long tradition. Fundamentally, the aim of the medical humanities courses is to give the students the opportunity to change their focus and consider alternative perspectives. By engaging with experiences, stories, emotions and characters, in a very different way from the approaches of much of their medical studies, we hope that the students learn about themselves and expand their horizons. Each patient is an individual and each doctor-patient relationship unique because we are people living in layers of context from family dynamics through to global economics. Many of the medical humanities courses seek to generate a greater understanding of this wider context. Creative writing allows students to imagine and explore context. In order to write about a character you must step into their shoes, surely an exercise in empathy. Refining and crafting writing require reflection. To show empathy and to be able to develop personally and professionally through reflective practice are now familiar requests for the skills of today’s and tomorrow’s doctors.

  • Philadelphia's First Fire Defences 355
    Philadelphia's First Fire Defences 355 PHILADELPHIA'S FIEST FIKE DEFENCES By HARROLD E. GILLINGHAM History fails to reveal who first produced fire, mean- ing thereby the friendly fire for warmth and cooking; and it is equally uncertain who first thought of fire prevention, when the friendly fire became antagonistic. In the year 59 A. D., Lyons, in France, was destroyed by fire and Nero offered to have the city rebuilt, yet in 64 A. D., Rome itself suffered from a fire which burnt for eight days and two-thirds of the city was destroyed; during which time Nero is reputed to have fiddled instead of attempting to save the city. London experienced five great fires. In 798, most of the city was destroyed; in 982, it again was almost completely consumed. The years 1086 and 1212 are to be remembered, as then other great fires occurred. The "Great Fire of London," which started September 2, 1666, and continued four days, burnt over four hun- dred acres of buildings, entailing a property loss of more than fifty million dollars, is generally spoken of when the subject of fires and fire prevention are under discussion. During all these years the matter of fire prevention was carefully considered. In 1068, William I. (The Conqueror), introduced the curfew, when all fires and lights had to be extinguished as a means of safety. In 1189, Richard I. (Cour de Leon), had ladders kept near all the great houses of London, that the owners thereof could "succour their neighbors in case mis- adventure should occur from fire";1 and between the feast of Pentecost and the feast of St.
