摘要:

From July 1971, to July 1972, in a large suburban Ontario practice of two family physicians, a randomized controlled trial was conducted to assess the effects of substituting nurse practitioners for physicians in primary‐care practice. Before and after the trial, the health status of patients who received conventional care from family physicians was compared with the status of those who received care mainly from nurse practitioners. Both groups of patients had a similar mortality experience, and no differences were found in physical functional capacity, social function or emotional function. The quality of care rendered to the two groups seemed similar, as assessed by a quantitative “indicator‐condition” approach. Satisfaction was high among both patients and professional personnel. Although cost effective from society's point of view, the new method of primary care was not financially profitable to doctors because of current restrictions on reimbursement for the nurse‐practitioner services.

摘要:

Little is known about the relationship between AIDS beliefs and AIDS risk‐reduction behavior, especially in young heterosexual adults. This study explores young women's beliefs and behavior regarding AIDS. The results of this exploratory study indicate that college women generally see AIDS as serious, do not see themselves as susceptible, and are uncertain if AIDS beliefs influence their contraceptive behavior. Higher susceptibility scores are consistently correlated with AIDS risk‐reduction behavior, and women who believe that AIDS affects their contraceptive use are more likely to use condoms. Implications for practice and strategies to increase susceptibility in women at risk are discus

Some comparisons are made with the results of previous studie
