- Description: "The theme explored in relation to the 3 projects (in this report) was the issue of innovation in clinical practice. As shown in the various reports, innovation can occur at a micro level as in Study 1 when aspects of two therapies were combined in an attempt to speed therapy; in Study 2 the innovation was more routine and practical in amalgamating the various practices of different Departments at the Ballarat Health Services into a treatment protocol for the treatment of young patients affected by critical eating disorders, or innovation in a wider sense; in Study 3 the effectiveness of a new treatment centre was researched. Some the ethical practice issues around innovation in clinical practice were examined in the final paper."-- leaf iii.

- Description: This study investigated the role of psychological variables in help-seeking behaviour and attitudes in a rural population, with particular emphasis as to whether differences existed between farmers and non-farming rural residents. These groups were contrasted, as research suggests that farmers appear to be a sub-group of the Australian population at increased risk of chronic health problems and suicide, even in comparison to other rural residents.
