Full textAbstract:
Using a risk management framework, the book discusses the landscape of U.S. higher education and faculty employment decisions. Topics include institutional differences, challenges facing colleges and universities, the erosion of academic standards, administrative bloat, changing promotion and tenure standards, sexual harassment, and Title IX concerns about campus safety. Attention is also given to the manner in which faculty members are hired and mentored and the decision-making biases that affect the way in which faculty members are granted promotion and tenure. The social psychological aspects of faculty employment decisions have been largely ignored in the literature, and we attempt to shed some light on these issues as we deconstruct promotion and tenure decisions. Traditional legal concepts of contract and employment law are examined as they pertain to hiring, promotion, and tenure decisions along with the cherished, but changing, ideals of free speech, academic freedom, and collegiality that have altered how faculty must deal with the rising tensions of political correctness on campus.

Chor, Julie, and Katie Watson, eds. Reproductive Ethics in Clinical Practice. Oxford University Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/med/9780190873028.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
Reproductive healthcare professionals in fields such as obstetrics and gynecology, family medicine, and pediatrics routinely face unique ethical issues at the crossroads of patient decision-making, scientific advancement, political controversy, legal regulation, and profound moral considerations. This book is a carefully curated compilation of essays written by leading experts in the fields of medicine, ethics, law, and the social sciences who address key issues at the forefront of reproductive ethics. It is organized into three main sections: Preventing Pregnancy and Birth (Contraception and Abortion Ethics), Initiating Pregnancy (Assisted Reproduction Ethics), and Managing Pregnancy and Delivery (Obstetric Ethics). Each section begins with a short introduction by the editors, providing an overview of this area of reproductive ethics and contextualizing the essays that follow. Two features make the book appealing and useful to practicing clinicians as well as students and trainees: the short length of the essays and the practical yet exciting topics they cover (e.g., issues around race, religion, abortion, violations of confidentiality, conflicts of interest, legal liability, maternal choices that risk future children’s health, and reproductive practice in Europe and developing nations). The collection provides clinicians at all levels of training with frameworks within which to approach challenging encounters.

Full textAbstract:
Ethical decision making in school mental health provides mental health professionals with a seven-step approach to managing ethical predicaments. It combines guidance from four major codes of ethics, including the American School Counseling Association, National Association of School Nurses, National Association of School Psychologists, and National Association of Social Workers. Ethical issues are endemic for mental health professionals working with minors in a host setting like schools. New interventions, evolving technologies, and a patchwork of ethical and legal guidelines create a constant stream of new ethical dilemmas. Longstanding and complex questions rarely give way to quick and easy answers. The seven-step model presented here enables readers to apply a practical process that minimizes their liability and protects their students. Beginning with an introduction of the moral, legal, and clinical foundations that undergird ethical practice, the authors present an ethical decision-making model with seven steps: know yourself and your responsibilities, analyze the dilemma, seek consultation, identify courses of action, manage clinical concerns, enact the decision, and reflect on the process. The second edition includes meticulously updated chapters based on recent changes to all of the codes of ethics over the past 10 years. It also has a new chapter on the universal issue of ethical recordkeeping. This handy guide is written for multidisciplinary teams of mental health professionals, including school social workers, school psychologists, school nurses, and school counselors. It provides a trusty resource with the following elements: Clearly organized chapters that introduce a process approach to ethical decision-making; Interprofessional and collaborative approach to working with other stakeholders; Case examples and practice exercises illustrate real work application of ethical guidelines; and Glossary, web resources, and U.S. Supreme Court decisions on students’ civil rights.

Gamble, Keith Jacks. Challenges for Financial Decision Making at Older Ages. Oxford University Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198808039.003.0003.
Full textAbstract:
Increased longevity has brought about financial challenges for which many seniors and their families are unprepared. This chapter describes recent research findings on financial decision making at older ages enabled by the Rush Memory and Aging Project, a large cohort study of aging. Although financial experience increases with age, financial decision making capabilities tend to diminish due to declines in cognitive ability. Declines in cognition coincide with diminished financial literacy and declining self-confidence. Older adults who experience cognitive decline often have difficulties managing their money and are more likely to get help with their financial decisions. Older adults are frequently targeted by scammers. Declining cognition is a significant risk factor for becoming a victim of financial fraud. Seniors who are over-confident in their financial knowledge are more likely to be victimized.

Webster, Lynn. The Painful Truth. Oxford University Press, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/med/9780190659721.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
The Painful Truth describes the personal and social implications of living with chronic pain and paints a picture of how society can do a better job of helping people who are in pain. In Part 1, the author-a former president of the American Academy of Pain Medicine-tells in-depth stories about some of his patients, using each story to focus on a key issue that frequently surfaces in the lives of people who have pain. The value of a positive attitude, the way that pain combines with other things going on in a person’s life, the reality of prejudice, the risk of becoming addicted to opioids, the power of love, the possibility of leveraging faith for healing, the burden and necessity of caregiving, and the need to be active in managing and making decisions for one’s own life-these are issues that come out in the stories. In Part 2, Webster talks about the issue of pain on a societal level. He faces head-on the thorny decisions involved in the use of opioids to treat chronic pain. Finally he argues that we need a cultural transformation to increase the acceptance of people who are in pain and to mobilize society’s resources to find cures for pain and make them available to all who need them. The Painful Truth, while intended for laypeople, is also helpful to medical professionals and policymakers.

Full textAbstract:
People tend to be penny wise and pound foolish and cry over spilt milk, even though we are taught to do neither. Focusing on the present at the expense of the future and basing decisions on lost value are two mistakes common to decision-making that are particularly costly in the world of finance. Behavioral Finance: What Everyone Needs to KnowR provides an overview of common shortcuts and mistakes people make in managing their finances. It covers the common cognitive biases or errors that occur when people are collecting, processing, and interpreting information. These include emotional biases and the influence of social factors, from culture to the behavior of one’s peers. These effects vary during one’s life, reflecting differences in due to age, experience, and gender. Among the questions to be addressed are: How did the financial crisis of 2007-2008 spur understanding human behavior? What are market anomalies and how do they relate to behavioral biases? What role does overconfidence play in financial decision- making? And how does getting older affect risk tolerance?

White, Chris, and Richard Koonce. Working with the Emotional Investor. ABC-CLIO, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9798216038801.
Full textAbstract:
An invaluable resource for wealth managers advising individuals, couples, and families, this book explains why human emotions drive all investor behavior and makes a powerful case for why advisors need to be aware of such emotions in advising clients—especially in high-stakes situations. Despite the fact that wealth advisors may employ algorithms, fancy financial models, economic theory, and predictive reasoning to forecast future investment returns, according to seasoned wealth management advisor Chris White, people—in other words, clients—basically decide how much risk to take with their money based on emotional factors such as the love they received as children, early life experiences of loss and “imperfect love,” psychic wounds, and family traumas. A must-read for anyone in the wealth management profession, including wealth advisors, financial consultants, certified financial analysts, and retirement advisors, this groundbreaking book offers a radically new and well-articulated framework for managing relationships with clients as well as the essential tools to advise, mentor, and guide clients in making financial management decisions. Readers will understand how to recognize the emotional and psychological factors behind investor behavior and apply this insight to be a better wealth advisor. The author explains why early childhood experiences of love, joy, and loss and sometimes very subtle family dynamics play a key role in adult investor behavior; why being sensitive to an individual’s unique psychological “systems” is key to being able to accurately assess his or her tolerance and acceptance of risk-taking as part of the wealth management process; what can cause a client’s personality to change, especially in high-stress or high-stakes situations; and how to employ sophisticated client relationship management practices such as curiosity, appreciative inquiry, and powerful questioning to understand clients’ needs at a deep psychological level.

Full textAbstract:
Against the all-too-familiar backdrop of corporate scandal and greed, Charles Watson provides what he calls a blueprint to help working men and women, from the tops of organizations to the bottoms, step forward and help restore and defend the integrity of business. Step by step, he outlines fifteen fundamental commandments of honest business—from put people first to be your own person—common-sensical approaches to making decisions, solving problems, and taking action in ways that deliver results without compromising on principles. Using dozens of compelling examples, from companies large and small, Watson demonstrates how honesty, integrity, and trust are at the root of such essential business concepts as creativity and innovation, risk taking, collaboration, attracting and retaining talented people, and anticipating and exceeding customer expectations. He also tackles such complex issues as how to prevent an ethical ego from becoming arrogant and how to stand your ground when faced with unethical competition, resistance from above or below, or the temptation to take the path of least resistance. Ultimately, he provides practical, not abstract or theoretical, recommendations for developing individuals and organizations that encourage authentic relationships, act in ways that society admires, and have the boldness to initiate action with conviction. Watson also tackles such complex issues as how to prevent an ethical ego from becoming arrogant and how to stand your ground when faced with unethical competition, resistance from above or below, or the temptation to take the path of least resistance. He reminds us that integrity is derived from the Latin integritas—oneness, a consistency of purpose, word, and deed. Applying this principle, he provides practical, not abstract or theoretical, recommendations for developing individuals and organizations that encourage authentic relationships, celebrate positive achievements, act in ways that society admires, and have the boldness to initiate action with conviction. Ultimately, Watson demonstrates that with courage and humility you can, indeed, do well by doing good—not only at work, but in all aspects of your life.

Cebula, Kerri. Governance in Sport. Edited by Bonnie Tiell. Human Kinetics, 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781718220997.
Full textAbstract:
Simplify the complexities of sport governance with an engaging and thought-provoking guide to how authority, policies, rules, and regulations can influence decision making in sport organizations. Governance in Sport: Analysis and Application With Web Resource examines the structure of governance within sport organizations across a breadth of levels and a variety of industry sectors to prepare students to practice principles of good governance and ethical decision making. The content is presented from three broad perspectives: (1) Students will first learn the foundation of legal and managerial practices in sport governance, encompassing ethical behavior, effective leadership, decision making, and policy development within sport organizations. (2) Once the groundwork is established, a geographical framework explores the structures and functions of regulatory agencies for sport at the local, state, national, regional, and global levels. Students will gain an appreciation for how agencies vary, as well as the differences in for-profit, nonprofit, and quasi-public sport organizations at the various levels. (3) Students will examine the nuances of sport governance across selected sectors of the sport industry. Professional sport, amateur sport, sport media, sporting goods and licensing, and fitness, wellness, and health are presented alongside the emerging and rapidly evolving sectors of sport marketing, legalized sport wagering, and esports for a realistic look at how governance is applied across different sectors. To enhance practical application, a related web resource presents 12 in-depth case studies and debates on relevant examples of governance in action within sports organizations. Each case study provides thought-provoking perspectives, authored by industry experts and scholars across sport business and academia. Students will gain real-world understanding of how governance varies across national and international levels by scrutinizing contemporary issues such as the NCAA college basketball corruption scandal, the NFL kneeling policy, Olympic host city selection, and poaching in esports. Critical thinking skills are encouraged with multiple-choice and discussion questions provided at the end of each case study. Additional learning aids also help to connect foundational knowledge to modern-day application. Governance in Action boxes highlight key concepts and provide context in relationship to recent events. Critical thinking questions encourage classroom discussion, and end-of-chapter applied activities help to solidify understanding. Providing an overview of managing sport at all levels and all sectors, Governance in Sport will help students develop an acute understanding of where power resides, how decisions are made, and the impact of those factors on the goals, purpose, and structure of sport organizations.
