The appropriateness and therapeutic value of physical contact with children is under increasing scrutiny. We conducted a postal questionnaire and telephone survey of consultant child and adolescent psychiatrists within Great Britain to investigate attitudes of specialists towards physical contact with their patients in different clinical contexts. Here we report that psychiatrists tend to restr...

STUDY DESIGN Nonexperimental descriptive research design. OBJECTIVE To describe the frequency of use and perceived level of importance of professional responsibilities, procedures, and knowledge areas by physical therapists practicing in primary contact care settings and to compare these data to similar data from physical therapists practicing in nonprimary contact care settings. BACKGROUND...

Physical contact between adults and children in educational setting has been a well debated subject research over the past 20 years. Although physical is often regarded as an important pedagogical tool, it given rise to increased awareness amongst sports coaches, education preschool teachers about possible negative consequences of its use these settings.

cu-mo and cu-ti contact structures were fabricated on multi-crystalline silicon substrates to provide a low resistance ohmic contact. deposition steps are done in an excellent vacuum chamber by means of electron beam evaporation and samples are then annealed for the realization of an efficient alloy layer. the effects of process parameters such as film thickness, annealing duration and temperat...

Physical proximity between each pair of genomic loci in a nucleus is measured as a form of contact frequency in chromosome conformation capture-based methods. Complexity of chromosome structure in interphase can be characterized by measuring a statistical property of physical distance between genomic loci according to genomic separation along single chromatids. To find a relationship between th...
