  • Introduction: The 2011 Biennial Review of Health Care Management
    Advances in health care management, 2011
    Co-Authors: John D. Blair, Myron D. Fottler
    Abstract:

    John D. Blair examines, in systematic detail, the challenges and opportunities that arise from the significantly different perspectives of context-specific versus context-free researchers and the literatures to which they contribute. He argues that reviews of one type or the other or both types of literatures may provide different understandings of the state of the art in a particular area of Health Care Management. He also provides some detailed suggestions for writing quality reviews along with suggested topics for future reviews.

  • Understanding the meaning of Health Care Management research through the use of a cognitive mapping approach
    Advances in Health Care Management, 1
    Co-Authors: Richard M. Shewchuk, Myron D. Fottler, Stephen J. O'connor, Hanh Q. Trinh
    Abstract:

    While both Health services and Management research have been discussed in different literature streams in recent years, there has been no research on how scholars who conduct Health Care Management research view the research process. How do they conceptualize it: what are the dominant themes? The present study is the first to examine the research process from the perspective of the Health Care Management researcher. Focus group meetings were held during the Health Care Management Division's pre-conference workshop at the 1996 Academy of Management meeting. In these meetings, a nominal group technique method was employed to get participants to generate attributes that were personally salient in terms of what “research” meant to them. Thirty distinct attributes were eventually derived, and these were inscribed onto sets (decks) of thirty index cards.

  • The Role of Grit in Health Care Management Skills and Health-related Quality of Life in College Students with Chronic Medical Conditions.
    Journal of pediatric nursing, 2019
    Co-Authors: Katherine A. Traino, Dana M. Bakula, Christina M. Sharkey, Caroline M Roberts, Nicole M. Ruppe, John M. Chaney, Larry L. Mullins
    Abstract:

    Abstract Purpose Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with chronic medical conditions are at risk for reduced Health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Recent research on AYAs without chronic medical conditions found that greater Health Care Management skills were related to higher HRQoL. In addition, grit, an intrapersonal strength, has been linked to greater Health Care Management skills and HRQoL. The current study extended these findings to AYAs with a chronic medical condition. Design and methods Three hundred and seventy-five undergraduates with a chronic medical condition completed questionnaires, including the short Grit Scale, Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire, and RAND 36-Item Short Form Survey. Results Path analysis revealed a significant direct effect of grit on Health Care Management skills and on both mental and physical HRQoL. Further, Health Care Management skills had a significant indirect effect on the grit → mental HRQoL association, but not on the grit → physical HRQoL association. Conclusions Higher levels of grit were linked to better Health Care Management skills and better mental and physical HRQoL. Further, grit and mental HRQoL were indirectly linked through Health Care Management skills, suggesting the utility of these skills in improving mental HRQoL. Practice implications Given the observed benefits of higher grit and Health Care Management skills on emotional HRQoL, and the potential impact of Health Care Management skills on future physical HRQoL, interventions targeting the enhancement of grit and Health Care Management skills may be beneficial in improving the efficacy of transition readiness interventions.

  • The Role of Grit in College Student Health Care Management Skills and Health-Related Quality of Life.
    Journal of pediatric psychology, 2017
    Co-Authors: Christina M. Sharkey, Dana M. Bakula, John M. Chaney, Kaitlyn L. Gamwell, Alexandria J. Mullins, Larry L. Mullins
    Abstract:

    Objective To examine the relationship of grit, an intrapersonal characteristic defined by perseverance and passion for long-term goals, to Health Care Management skills and adolescent and young adult (AYA) Health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Higher levels of grit were expected to relate to greater Health Care Management skills and HRQoL, and skills were predicted to mediate the relationship between grit and HRQoL. Methods Four hundred seventy undergraduates (Mdnage=19, interquartile range = 2) completed online questionnaires, including the short Grit Scale, Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire, and 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) (HRQoL). Results Higher grit related to greater Health Care Management skills (R2=0.15 p .05). Conclusions This preliminary investigation illustrates the role of grit in AYA Health, suggesting that it may be a target for interventions aimed at improving skills and HRQoL outcomes.

  • Disappearing act: decay of uniform resource locators in Health Care Management journals.
    Journal of the Medical Library Association : JMLA, 2009
    Co-Authors: Cassie Wagner, Meseret D. Gebremichael, Mary K. Taylor, Michael J. Soltys
    Abstract:

    This study examines the problem of decay of uniform resource locators (URLs) in Health Care Management journals and seeks to determine whether continued availability at a given URL relates to the date of publication, the type of resource, or the top-level URL domain. The authors determined the availability of web-based resources cited in articles published in five source journals from 2002 to 2004. The data were analyzed using correlation, chi-square, and descriptive statistics. Attempts were made to locate the unavailable resources. After checking twice, 49.3% of the original 2,011 cited resources could not be located at the cited URL. The older the article, the more likely that URLs in the reference list of that article were inactive (r = -0.62, P<0.001, n = 1,968). There was no difference in availability across resource types (chi(2) = 5.28, df = 2, P = 0.07, n = 1,786). Whether an URL was active varied by top-level domain (chi(2) = 14.92, df = 4, P = 0.00, n = 1,786). URL decay is a serious problem in Health Care Management journals. In addition to using website archiving tools like WebCite, publishers should require authors to both keep copies of Internet-based information they used and deposit copies of data with the publishers.
