Fortunately, we have both the experienced personnel and the technological capacity to construct a Manpower System, exercise it, and train personnel by it. We do not have to accept partial fulfillment from the testing of one or another minuscule model when complete fulfillment from the testing of the entire Manpower System is available. We therefore propose that these two models of Illness and Health be accepted as a basis for the logical programing of a computer-based Manpower System; specifically, the Health Manpower Subsystem. Design of an appropriate system will require empirical research to tie down each proposition in the computer program. Programing will permit simulation of these two models within the comprehensive H e a 1 t h Manpower Subsystem. With simulation, we can modify parameters (e.g., Illness, Health, the Public, closure, ratios, and so forth) and determine their consequences; e.g., how Social Security or the Engineering Manpower Subsystem affects health manpower. Furthermore, the simulation will provide a vehicle by which to train personnel for functions appropriate to health which we cannot now predict or comprehend. In summary, because neither illness nor health respects the closure offered by artificial boundary lines, a computer-based system for health manpower simulation may very well become the entering wedge toward a comprehensive, world perspective on manpower.","PeriodicalId":78356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of health and human behavior","volume":"35 1","pages":"238-42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1966-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74594595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The latter involves determination of epidemiology, human geography, pre-scientific attitudes and practices relating to health and sickness, ethno-cultural factors in the aspirations of the various population groups. The first facet can be solved by techniques developed in the field of p u b 1 i c health: allocation of funds; recruitment of instructors, administrators and equipment; and substitution of para-medical trainees in regions where the availability of fully-qualified physicians, nurses, and sanitary engineers for rural needs is a decade away. The solution to the second facet requires teamwork among several disciplines because of the interlacing of biological and cultural dimensions. This paper will outline a recent enterprise which was in part modelled on Dodd's controlled experiment on rural hygiene thirty years ago,4 but which required adaptation from the problems of Syria a generation ago to those of Ethiopia today. In both regions, experimental and controlled communities were selected, and arbitrary scores assigned to hygiene-related practices and attitudes. This paper describes the \"before\" part of the enterprise. The Ethiopian Context: The concept of decentralization of the introduction of modern health center facilities immediately directs the attention to the rural region where the majority of people live, in \"developing\" countries.5 Unlike Syria, Ethiopian rural folk live in series of hamlets rather than villages, but group around market centers. The latter take the aspects of little towns and vary in population from 1,000 to 4,500 residents. Since the introduction of health facilities requires accessability at least most of the year, the little towns constituted the most logical universe from which sample \"study\" and \"control\" communities were to be selected in such a manner as to represent the major ethnic and ecological dimensions of the country. Ethiopia was considered a good location for such a study because true baselines exist due to the long isolation of the country and poor communications among many of the communities.","PeriodicalId":78356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of health and human behavior","volume":"65 1","pages":"261-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1966-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83084292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of the current study was to establish benchmarks which would be useful in future quantitative assessments of the effectiveness of the heath centers in improving health practices. Data were collected both by ethnographic observation and household surveys. Three variables considered as potential sources for measuring future changes were 1) the use of drinking water sources 2) the degree to which inhabitants used soap and 3) hand washing practices. In regard to the 1st variable the purity of the water sources could be determined fairly accurately and the respondents were receptive toward questions concerning their sources of drinking water; however since most of the water sources in the area were unsafe the value of this variable as a possible measure of sanitation changes stemming from the educational impact of the health center will depend on the degree to which better sources of drinking water are made available to the villagers. Responses to the questions related to the use of soap were somewhat unreliable and those related to hand washing were highly unreliable; therefore their use in assessing quantitative changes in health practices will be of limited value. The reliability of the survey data was suspect due to the sensitive nature of some of the questions the tendency on the part of the respondents to give polite answers and variation in responses when questions were phrased differently. Ethnographic observations were helpful in assessing the reliability of the questionaire responses. Tables include 1) safety assessments of the water for each community and 2) the number and % of respondents in each community by soap using habits by hand washing habits and by handwashing habits when the questions were rephrased.","PeriodicalId":78356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of health and human behavior","volume":"105 1","pages":"272-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1966-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73344220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
