Various mixtures.

Australian Family Physician is pleased to present a home course in extemporaneous prescribing, an interesting area that is poorly understood by many practitioners, especially recent graduates. Dr. Bernard Kelly has been teaching this discipline to Family Medicine trainees in New South Wales for many years. A question is included at the end of each module.

Aggression, performance variables, and anger self-report in ice hockey players.

This study partially replicated a former one showing a relationship between aggression and performance among hockey players. With certain penalties used as a measure of aggression, two groups of male college ice hockey players were compared for differences in goals and assists. Those rated high in aggression scored significantly more goals than those low in aggression. The direction of differences in assists was the same but did not reach significance. When the same groups were compared for shots on goals, significant differences were found, favoring the high aggressive group. This findings was discussed in light of energy output and efficiency. Attempts to relate performance and personality measures were not successful when comparisons on a self-report measure of anger were analyzed.

Unoccluded bone conduction screening as an alternative to impedance screening.

The present study was undertaken to determine which intensity level of an unoccluded bone-conducted (BC) signal might be best suited for use as a supplemental procedure to an individual pure-tone air-conduction school screening program. Four intensity levels (0, 5, 10, 15 dB hearing level) of a 500 Hz BC tone were presented in ascending order to a public school population in addition to screening by impedance audiometry and pure-tone air conducted signals. Tetrachoric analysis using impedance screening results as a standard comparison revealed that a 10-dB unoccluded BC signal at 500 Hz provided an effective supplemental procedure for identifying conductive pathology in the population studied.

Audiometry

High-frequency consonant word discrimination lists in hearing aid evaluation.

A summary of the results shows that with 5 of the 9 subjects the high-frequency consonant scores indicated the same aid for the patient that the NU-6 scores indicated. In 2 cases the NU-6 indicated amplification was appropriate whereas the high-frequency consonant scores indicated amplification was not appropriate. Obviously, the high-frequency consonant scores should be considered supplemental to the NU-6 scores and not as a replacement for the NU-6. The combination of the NU-6 and the high-frequency consonant results for Subject 1 may indicate that the patient should have received further counseling and should have been taught how to communicate more effectively without an aid. The high-frequency consonant scores obtained by 2 of the subjects indicated different aids than the ones indicated by the NU-6 test and the patient preference. Perhaps the reason the patient chose an aid other than the one that would most benefit him was that he was most comfortable with the aid that allowed him to hear in the manner to which he was accustomed, even if he did not do as well with it. If a person had become accustomed to not hearing the high-frequency sounds, an aid that suddenly allowed him to hear those sounds might disturb him. The addition of high-frequency amplification might have made speech sound foreign to him. It would have been much easier for him to choose the aid that he was most comfortable with.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
