The psycho-activated linguistic method.

A method for teaching foreign languages through the use of ten hypnotic sessions was developed. The method included the preparation of taped material for home application. The use of this method was analyzed in 153 subjects in Czechoslovakia, Russia and Italy. Preliminary analysis indicates that the method facilitates the learning of a foreign language.

[Linguistics in blood group serology].

With a view to terminological uniformity, blood group serologists, immunologists and transfusion physicians should refer only to the "ABo' (zero) in stead of the "ABO' system. They also should use "HLA antibodies' in stead of "anti HLA antibodies'. The new Dutch spelling "resus' in stead of "Rhesus' is incorrect from a historical point of view.

Continuity and change reflected in synchronic and diachronic linguistic variation of Middle Dalmatia.

The present paper analyses the geographical patterning of the two main dialects of the Croatian language in contemporary Middle Dalmatia, using language data as an indicator of population change by migration, with its wider cultural implications based on acculturation processes. It is shown that the synchronic evidence of the dialect and sub-dialect patterns of this area reflects more extensive interrelationships between different cultural substrata in terms of both little (local) and great (Islamic and Latin) traditions.

Profiling linguistic outcomes in young children after cochlear implantation.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the results of cost-utility analyses of pediatric cochlear implantation (PCI) in the United Kingdom. METHOD: Analyses were based on measured costs of health care and measured educational placements, but on estimates of the gain utility which results from PCI and estimates of the costs of educational placements. RESULTS: The cost-utility ratio calculated from the costs of health care falls on the margin of the range considered acceptable within the British health-care system. If estimates of cost-savings associated with educational placements are also considered, the resulting ratio is similar to that of other therapies provided within the British health-care system. CONCLUSION: The analysis is highly sensitive to assumptions about future costs and benefits. There is a need to reduce the number of assumptions by measuring those values which are currently estimated: in particular, the gain in utility associated with PCI and the costs of different educational placements.

Linguistic maturity as a determinant of child patient behavior in the dental office.

Progressively during the 20th century dentistry for children has become more efficient, less painful, and more prevention oriented. In the last quarter of the 20th century there was a dramatic decrease in dental decay for many American children. These two facts paired with the fact that stories about dentistry being painful are gone in many American communities and have been replaced with stories about how pleasant the dental appointment can be would seem to predict that child patient management and the interception of inappropriate behavior would not be a critical skill for the dental clinician that treats children today. This finding however is not the case. It is submitted that misbehavior now stems from the fact that today's parents are not encouraged to raise their children as urgently as in the earlier part of the century. It is offered that the child's incompetence in working with other people in the constituent speech acts of requests and promises causes the child confusion, frustration, and perhaps anxiety. The child's dental experience is a complex conversation between the dentists as requester and the child patient as the promisor of effective actions to the dentists' reasonable requests.
