Abstract

Traditionally the biomedical approach has characterised dementia care. This approach predominantly attributes the patient's presentation and deterioration to the dementia. A more holistic approach to dementia care involves considering a range of factors, in addition to the dementia, that may account for the patient's presentation and deterioration; these include psychogenic, biogenic, social and environmental factors. The current thesis sought to explore the impact of some of these potential factors. Caregivers play a vital role in looking after people with dementia. Caregiver presentation may be impacted directly by caregivers' own psychogenic, biogenic, social and environmental factors, as well indirectly by care-recipient psychogenic, biogenic, social and environmental factors. The current thesis sought to explore the impact some of these potential factors on caregiver presentation, in an attempt to further understand some of the reasons underlying positive and negative caregiving experiences. Chapter 1 details a review of the literature investigating the associations between Attachment Style/dimension and clinical presentation in people with dementia and caregivers. Chapter one thus explores a possible psychogenic factor influencing the presentation of people with dementia and caregivers. Chapter 2 is a piece of empirical research investigating how a co-morbid physical health problem suffered by a Person with Dementia (PwD), specifically infection, impacts on a PwD as well as on their caregiver; the impact of hospitalisation of the PwD is also explored, both on the PwD and on their caregiver. Chapter two thus explores possible biogenic, social and environmental factors influencing the presentation of people with dementia and caregivers. Chapter 3 details some of my reflections on and learning from the process of conducting this empirical research.

Abstract

Air potato, Dioscorea bulbifera L. (Dioscoreaceae), is an invasive vine that climbs into vegetation outcompeting native species and altering ecosystems in the southeastern USA. The biological control agent, Lilioceris cheni Gressitt and Kimoto (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), has been released in Florida since 2011 and in other states including Georgia (2015), Louisiana (2016), Texas (2017), Mississippi (2018), and Alabama (2018) to manage air potato. Despite the wide distribution of the weed and mass rearing efforts, there are no studies documenting the establishment of L. cheni outside of Florida. The objectives of this study were to document the beetle release efforts by several agencies and determine the establishment and impact of L. cheni across the southeastern USA. Using community science reports and field surveys, we documented the distribution of air potato and L. cheni. Results demonstrated that the distribution of air potato extends to temperate regions from South Carolina and Georgia to subtropical regions of Louisiana, Texas, and Florida. Surveys showed that the beetle is present across all states with releases, and numbers fluctuated between 6 and 37 beetles counted per 30-surveyor-minutes. Most sites sampled had moderate to high beetle damage (scales of 3–4 out of 5), and air potato cover was low to moderate (2–3 out of 5). However, air potato was still abundant in some areas, which suggests the need for additional beetle releases and/or the use of other tactics to achieve management goals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
