V.1. Thesis - The theory of planned behaviour and implementation intentions in dental attendance -- v.2. Professional portfolio - Attachment theory as a framework for understanding the role of family dysfunction in childhood sexual abuse and subsequent psychological adjustment in adulthood : illustrated by four cases |
Summary |
The thesis used a model of health behaviour to examine the predictors of dental attendance. Older respondents who had strong intentions, low perceived vulnerability, stable plans to attend, and were influenced by significant others were more likely to have attended the dentist for preventive care in the last 12 months. The portfolio concludes that attachment theory is a useful conceptual framework for enhancing our understanding of the antecedents and consequences of childhood sexual abuse |
