Abstract: |
|
Depression is a common and serious mental disorder although antidepressant medications, electroconvulsive therapy, and some psychotherapies are found to be effective treatment of this disorders. And yet, individuals afflicted with major depression or dysthymia may refuse psychiatric treatment, sometime, because of their illness. Although current guidelines require clinicians to obtain patients' informed consent for these psychiatric interventions, but empirical research have suggested that some psychiatric patients may not have sufficient decisional capacity to make treatment related decision (Van Staden & Kruger, 2003). Little is known about the capacity of patients with major depression or dysthymia because the notion of competence to consent to treatment was originally required to address mainly cognitive impaired or psychotic individuals, some of whom are more in the public eye because of an increased risk of danger to others when their mental impairment is not treated, such as schizophrenia. That might be the reason why no study has been conducted to evaluate the impact of aging on the treatment related decision-making ability among depressed even though this issue has been initially explored in older adults with schizophrenia (Palmer, Dunn, Appelbaum, & Jeste, 2004). The primary aims of the present proposed study are to examine the level, range, neuropsychological correlates, and stability of treatment-related decisional capacity among middle-aged and older patients (age >39) with major depression or dysthymia. Moreover, we will validate two measures of treatment-related decision making capacity in local context. |

Abstract: |

To review these three pillars and how their roles in retirement income protection could be strengthened in the future. Any reforms in pension scheme should be undertaken very cautiously because retirement income systems that are affordable today may not be sustainable in the future due to the twin pressures of demographic aging and the maturing of pension schemes; to assess the financial sustainability and the effectiveness (i.e. reduction of poverty and income inequality) of the changed or newly proposed schemes based on computer simulation with essential data set; (1) to assess the distribution of income and asset possession among older adults in the coming 3 decades; (2) to examine the public expenditure of the social security system including old-aged category of CSSA and OAA scheme in the coming 3 decades; (3) to estimate the benefits to be received from the retirement protection schemes including the MPF Schemes, the voluntary occupational ORSO schemes, and civil servant pension scheme in the coming thirty years; to review and evaluate the roles of the existing pillars in old age income security; (5) to propose a number of schemes that may change or replace the current social security system for older adults; to study which schemes pass the financial sustainability test for the next 30 years; (7) to project the impact of the schemes passed the sustainability test on the distribution of income and asset possession in the future cohort of older adults in the coming 3 decades e.g. to what extent these schemes may prevent or reduce the poverty or income inequality in old age; to evaluate the schemes by taking into account of results obtained in (2) to (7) and social (attitude to poverty in old age, concept of equity), economic and political (feasibility) circumstances of Hong Kong and guidelines proposed by World Bank (1994) as well as Holzmann, MacArthur, & Sin (2000); and 9) to recommend the most appropriate schemes taking into account of results obtained in all tasks mentioned above and economic and political (feasibility) circumstances of Hong Kong and to propose the detailed design of the scheme and the appropriate implementation strategy. |

Abstract: |

To develop and indigenous home-school cooperation model to promote the mental health of primary and secondary school children with specific learning disabilities and their families through providing them early, theory-driven and evidence-based educational and assessment accommodations (like adjustments in homework format and amount, and adjustments in examination format, modes of responding, and time allowed for completion according to the child's learning difficulties). The specific objectives are three-fold: 1) To develop and implement a theory-driven and evidence-based teacher, parent and child and training package that can ensure early provision of necessary educational and assessment accommodations for such children; to conduct longitudinal and comparison group studies on the impact of these provisions on selected psychosocial functioning of the children, parents and teachers. Elements under examination include mental health of the children and their parents, the children's self-esteem and learning attitude; and parents and teachers' attitudes and skills towards supporting such children; to apply the findings to develop an indigenous home-school collaboration model to support these children, their families and teachers. |

Abstract: |

To develop and indigenous home-school cooperation model to promote the mental health of primary and secondary school children with specific learning disabilities and their families through providing them early, theory-driven and evidence-based educational and assessment accommodations (like adjustments in homework format and amount, and adjustments in examination format, modes of responding, and time allowed for completion according to the child's learning difficulties). The specific objectives are three-fold: 1) To develop and implement a theory-driven and evidence-based teacher, parent and child and training package that can ensure early provision of necessary educational and assessment accommodations for such children; to conduct longitudinal and comparison group studies on the impact of these provisions on selected psychosocial functioning of the children, parents and teachers. Elements under examination include mental health of the children and their parents, the children's self-esteem and learning attitude; and parents and teachers' attitudes and skills towards supporting such children; to apply the findings to develop an indigenous home-school collaboration model to support these children, their families and teachers. |

Objectives: 1) To study how and to what extend can the use of information communication technology enhance the social life and self esteem of the older people. 2) To identify factors that affect the usage of ICT among the elderly persons, 3) To study the effectiveness of a large scale e-training programme for older persons in enhancing the ICT knowledge and skills. Hong Kong is a rapidly aging society as well as a speedily developing information society. Research on how information and communication technology (ICT) has cast impact on the aging process is of paramount concern to the helping profession. A recent local qualitative research had suggested that senior persons could be empowered via the exposure to ICT in different ways (Fung, 2004). In particular, it suggested that the social life of senior persons could be enhanced via the use of the internet. This proposed research project aims at providing quantitative data to further substantiate such thesis. According to the result of the previous research, ICT brought about positive changes in senior persons in three areas namely, Self-efficacy boosting; Awareness-raising; and Skill-building. This proposed research will develop instruments to measure the degree of such “changes”, focusing on the behavioral changes that senior persons exhibited with increased exposure to ICT. A non-governmental organization (NGO) has recently secured funding to train a large number of senior persons to use internet applications to communicate. There is a golden chance to ride on that training program for research purpose. Results of this proposed research could be used in calibrating community programs to enhance the quality of life of senior persons. It would also have great implications in understanding the effect of ICT on other disadvantaged groups such as people with disabilities. Furthermore, investigation into other interesting areas such as cyber-relationship, net-addiction and other cyber behavior of senior persons and disadvantaged groups would be enlightened by the results of this research. |
