    Notes: Interviews were conducted with union business agents on conditions necessary for their support of a goal setting program. Subsequent to the interviews, goals were assigned to 39 truck drivers. The results were analyzed using a design that included a comparison group (N= 35). The results showed a significant increase in productivity for the drivers who received specific goals. When the conditions necessary for the union's support of the goal setting program were no longer met, there was a wildcat strike.

    Notes: Behavioral observation scales (BOS) were developed for first line foremen. BOS are similar to behavioral expectation scales (BES) in that both are based on a job analysis procedure known as the critical incident technique. However, the BOS differ from BES in that, in developing BOS, (a) a group of individuals is observed and rated on a five-point scale as to the frequency with which they engage in the behavior described by each incident/statement, (b) a total score for each individual is determined by summing the observer's responses for each behavioral item, and (c) an item analysis (or factor analysis, depending upon the sample size) is conducted to select the most discriminating items. Those items with the highest correlations with the total score on a scale are retained to form one behavioral criterion or scale (BOS).

    Notes: A survey was systematically developed to assess issues related to management training and education, and it was sent to 1,000 randomly selected U.S. companies with at least 1,000 employees. Based on a 61% response rate, findings were obtained regarding issues such as needs assessment, management training and development approaches, reasons for selecting particular programs, characteristics of participants, how decisions are made regarding who will participate, preparation and follow-up of participants, evaluation of management training programs, future management training trends, and needed training content. Significant findings by company size and industry type also are reported.

    Notes: Previous research comparing the effects of assigned versus participatively set goals on performance were essentially tests of the null hypothesis in that goal difficulty level was not systematically manipulated. The present laboratory study investigated the effects of assigned versus participatively set goals, and the effects of varying goal difficulty level on an arithmetic task. Eighty-six college students were assigned to either a participative goal condition or one of three assigned goal conditions. In two of the assigned goal conditions participants were assigned goals equal to those set in the participative condition, the difference being that individuals in one group were assigned goals at random and those in the other group were assigned goals on the basis of their premeasure scores. Participants in the third assigned goal condition were randomly assigned a goal in the top quartile of the goals set participatively. As hypothesized, individuals with hard assigned goals had higher performance than peers with lower goals set in a participative manner. Contrary to modern organizational theory, individuals with participatively set goals did not have higher performance than those with assigned goals of equal difficulty. Personality traits were not found to moderate the effects of goal setting on performance.

    Notes: Background:  One of the more controversial issues related to maternal employment in the United States concerns the timing of entry into the workforce and its effect on children, particularly during the first year of the child's life. Some studies show deleterious effects on children, such as increases in aggression and noncompliance, while others document few negative and even positive effects of early employment.Methods:  This study examined the long-term effects of maternal employment during the child's first year of life on the social behavior of 171 third- and fourth-grade children in two-parent families. The moderating effects of child gender and social class were investigated. The extent to which stability in alternative care arrangements statistically explained links between early maternal employment and child outcomes was tested.Results:  After controlling for child gender, and maternal ethnicity, social class, and current employment status, third- and fourth-grade children whose mothers were employed during their first year of life evinced more acting out and less frustration tolerance and were nominated more often by peers for ‘hitting’ and ‘being mean’ than children whose mothers were not employed. There was some evidence that these associations were moderated by child gender and social class: boys, but not girls, whose mothers were employed during the first year were subsequently rated by teachers as acting out more than other children, and were also more likely to be nominated by peers for hitting. Higher nominations for hitting were only found in the working class. Finally, there was partial evidence that the number of alternative child-care arrangements during the first year accounted for the links between early maternal employment and subsequent child outcomes.Conclusions:  These results are congruent with extant research that posits a risk of early employment on socioemotional development, but show that this risk is partially attributable to child-care instability.

    Notes: Abstract The management of patients with hepatic metastases from colorectal carcinoma is controversial. While a “no treatment” attitude still persists, other patients undergo systemic chemotherapy with very limited results. Other possible options are hepatic resection and locoregional treatments. One hundred twenty-three patients with hepatic metastases from colorectal cancer were treated at the authors' institution over a period of 15 years. Thirty-nine patients underwent hepatic resection while 84 underwent various forms of locoregional treatment. Several patients in the latter group were registered in one national (RNSI) Phase 2 study and one international (EORTC Phase 3 trial. The authors' experience confirms the opinion that hepatic resection can be performed with the aim of curing in patients with isolated metastases. A five-year survival rate can be achieved in 25 to 30 percent of the resectable patients. Patients with unresectable extrahepatic disease or multiple bilateral metastases are usually excluded from resection. In other cases, hepatic resection should be carried out when technically possible. The value of adjuvant chemotherapy to the remaining liver has to be tested in prospective randomized trials. Patients with diffuse metastases can benefit from locoregional infusion of chemotherapeutic agents. Symptoms improve in most patients; objective responses vary from 53 to 83 percent of the cases, which is a higher rate than that reported for systemic chemotherapy. Survival may be prolonged in respect to untreated patients but this has not been demonstrated yet by prospective randomized studies. Current trends are continuous infusion of chemotherapeutic agents and experimentation of new drugs or drug combinations. Future improvements may be achieved by adding hepatic arterial ischemia, hyperthermia, or radiation therapy. As these kinds of treatments are still experimental, they should be applied to the patients only in the context of prospective clinical trials.

    Notes: Abstract As referred to in the literature, patients complaining of constipation may have a spastic or, in the case of chronic straining, weak pelvic floor. Twenty-two severely constipated patients who did not improve after a high fiber diet were submitted to whole gut transit time (TT), proctographic, and anorectal manometric studies. A control group consisting of five subjects for TT, five subjects for proctogram, and ten subjects for manometry was also studied. Transit time was delayed ( P 〈 0.001) in all patients. Manometry in the constipated group showed a high rectal threshold (64.1 vs. 17.1 ml of air,P 〈 0.01), but no other significant difference. Proctograms in 10 of 22 patients (Group A) showed no differences in the anorectal angle (ARA) and in its distance from the pubococcygeal line (DLPC) in respect to the control group; 12 of 22 patients (Group B) had a paradoxical closure of the ARA at straining in respect to resting position (101.2† vs. 120.1†), and a higher DLPC than Group A and the control group in all positions studied. There was no difference in TT for rectal stasis of radiopaque markers between the two pathologic groups. Patients in Group B were older than patients in Group A (55.3 vs. 42.9 years,P 〈0.05). In conclusion, proctograms showed alterations of the pelvic floor, but there was no correlation between proctographic data and rectal or colonic stasis of the radiopaque markers, or clinic severity of constipation, but a correlation between ages did exist.
