Female homosexuals' concepts of self, men, and women.
Twenty-four female homosexuals and 24 female heterosexuals matched for age and education were given the Draw-A-Person Test (DAP) and, on the Gough-Heilbrun Adjective Check List (ACL), were asked to describe themselves, men in general, and women in general. Results indicated that homosexuals, relative to the heterosuxual controls: (a) sexualized their drawings (p smaller than .02) and embellished the female figure more (p smaller than .05); (b) showed no evidence of confusion in gender identity on the DAP or ACL; (c) scored sifnigicantly higher on Autonomy, Change, and Exhibition on the ACL; and (d) scored significantly lower on Abasement, Defensiveness, Deference, Endurance, Order, Personal Adjustment and Self-control on the ACL. It was concluded that the female homosexual may be more independent, changeable, and sexually preoccupied and less well adjusted than her heterosexual counterpart.

Group/audiovisual instruction for patients with diabetes. Learning achievements and time economics.
Patients with diabetes receiving instruction in group classes utilizing audiovisual teaching techniques achieved significantly higher post-test scores than those taught individually in the traditional bedside manner. In addition to the significantly greater learning, the dietitian's time was reduced by 100 per cent, based on classes of eight patients. The study was conducted by randomly allocating forty-five qualified patients to control or experimental groups, pre-testing them using a questionaire-interview, giving bedside or class dietary instruction, and post-testing, using the same questionaire. Various personal characteristcs of the participants, as well as data relating to the diabetic state, were also examined for possible relationships to test scores and to one another.

Relationship between nurse counseling and sexual adjustment after hysterectomy.
The relationship between nurse counseling of hysterectomy patients and sexual adjustment following surgery was the focus of this descriptive study. Of 108 premenopausal women admitted to seven hospitals in California, New Mexico, and Utah who completed a series of questionnaires preoperatively, postoperatively, and eight weeks post-surgery, only 11 percent identified the nurse as the person who supplied the most valuable information. Self-reported sexual adjustment following surgery was significantly (p=.001) related to their presurgical pattern. Almost half the respondents wrote comments urging nurses to initiate discussion about the effect of hysterectomy on sexuality.
