Search for orthodontic assistant personality profile.

A study of 124 orthodontists and 476 auxiliaries was undertaken to learn whether successful chairside assistants had a special personality as shown by the Cattell 16 PF test. The successful and unsuccessful orthodontic assistants differed significantly in only one respect. The successful assistants generally displayed more conscientiousness than the nonsuccessful assistants. This study suggests that most orthodontic assistants come from a group of women that differs little from the mean of the general population.

Clothing fasteners for women with arthritis.

To examine the ability of women with arthritis to manipulate fasteners, 97 women with various forms of arthritis were interviewed and tested using an adjustable bodice-front vest with assorted detachable fastener samples. Since evaluations were performed, in most cases, when the disease was in remission, nearly all of the women were able to manipulate the fasteners presented--sets of zippers, buttons, Velcro, and snaps. The conventional zipper with large teeth and ring pull tab exposed application, and a convex button with a shank used with a vertical buttonhole were manipulated most easily, while fasteners more difficult to manipulate included an invisible zipper, no-sew gripper snaps, and several Velcro samples. Subjects tended to prefer conventional fasteners and methods of application used in ready-to-wear apparel.
