Abstract:
Syfte och frågeställningar Syftet med detta arbete var att undersöka tennistränarens användning av mental träning. - Hur viktigt är det med mental träning? - Vad är tränarens upplevelse av självprat och mentala föreställningar? - Hur tillämpar tränarna självprat på sina spelare? - Hur tillämpar tränarna mentala föreställningar på sina spelare? Metod Studiens ansats var kvalitativ där intervjuer användes. Det genomfördes fyra intervjuer med tennistränare för elitspelare i åldrarna 13-17 i olika klubbar i Stockholm. Intervjuerna spelades in och transkriberades. Därefter analyserades och tolkades intervjuerna på ett induktivt sätt där tanken alltid var att fokusera på att hitta kategorier som kopplar till studiens syfte och frågeställningar. Resultat Resultaten som presenteras i studien är baserade på gemensamma kategorier som hittades i intervjuerna. Resultaten visar hur viktigt det är med mental träning samt tränarnas egna erfarenheter och upplevelser kring mental träning inom tennis med fokus på självprat och mentala föreställningar. Slutsats Tränarna i denna studie arbetar oorganiserat med mental träning. De anser att mental träningär viktigt och skulle vilja ha mer tid för att utföra det på ett mer konkret sätt. De menar att man ska lära spelarna att acceptera känslorna som kan ta över en situation och hitta rätt verktyg

Abstract:
Pour étudier le trouble mental, le premier réflexe est de se tourner vers la médecine et plus particulièrement la psychiatrie. Pourtant, le Droit n’est pas étranger à cette thématique et la présente étude propose une approche relative au traitement juridique du trouble mental. A partir de la polysémie du mot « traitement » nous analyserons les différentes manières dont le Droit aborde le trouble mental et le degré de liberté qu'il octroie aux personnes atteintes d'une telle pathologie. En effet, la première signification du mot « traitement » fait référence à la façon de s’adresser à une personne. Dès lors, il s'agira de comprendre comment la discipline juridique appréhende les personnes souffrant de troubles mentaux et la différence d’attention portée entre les malades internés et ceux détenus. La seconde acception de ce mot faisant référence à la manière de résoudre un problème, il nous faudra également étudier comment le législateur a réagi aux condamnations de la Cour européenne des droits de l’Homme et aux décisions d’inconstitutionnalité du juge constitutionnel français. Cette seconde signification permettra également d’étudier les raisons du phénomène de vases communicants entre l’hôpital psychiatrique et la prison. Les frontières entre Droit et psychiatrie étant poreuses, l’étude propose également d’analyser les rapports entre Droit et psychiatrie et leurs conséquences sur les malades mentaux. Des relations entre les deux disciplines dépendra l’attitude envers le malade. En encadrant la psychiatrie, le Droit va tenter de favoriser l’accès aux soins et revaloriser la liberté individuelle. Dans un mouvement opposé, la psychiatrie va influencer le Droit et il s’agira pour ce dernier de mettre en place des dispositifs de contrôle et de neutralisation des malades mentaux. L’étude du traitement juridique du trouble mental. Essai sur les rapports entre Droit et psychiatrie se situe au cœur de la rencontre de valeurs et de concepts antagonistes. Droit et devoir, liberté et sécurité, responsabilité et déresponsabilisation ou encore soin et sanction s’entremêlent dans une thématique complexe et passionnante
To study mental disorder the first instinct is to turn to medicine, especially psychiatry. However, the law does have some sort of connection with this theme and the following study aims at comprehending the legal treatment of mental disorder. Based on the polysemy of the word “treatment” we will analyze the different ways the law deals with mental disorder and the level of freedom to which the mentally ill are entitled. As the most commonly accepted meaning of the word “treatment” refers to the way a person is addressed, the purpose of the following study will be to understand how the law deals with the mentally ill as well as the difference of attention given to the patients who are committed to a mental institution and those who are detained in prison. As the second meaning of the word refers to the way of solving a problem, this study will focus on how lawmakers reacted to the convictions passed by the European Court of Human Rights and to the unconstitutionality rulings rendered by the French constitutional judge. The second meaning of the word will also enable to study the root causes of the phenomenon of communicating vessels between mental institutions and prisons. We will see that the borders between law and psychiatry are porous; that is why the study will aim at analyzing the connections between law and psychiatry as well as their consequences on the mentally ill. The attitude towards sick people will depend entirely on the relationships between the two subjects. By giving a legal framework to psychiatry, the law attempts to promote access to healthcare and to reassert the value of individual freedom. On the other hand, psychiatry will influence the law, which will have to put in place systems to monitor and keep the mentally sick under control. The study of the legal treatment of mental disorder. Essay on the connections between law and psychiatry is at the core of the encounter between antagonistic values and concepts. Right and duty, freedom and safety, accountability and unaccountability, or care and punishment interconnect in a complex and interesting theme

Järvenhag, Henrik. "Mental träning och mentala strategier hos professionella blåsmusiker." Thesis, Karlstads universitet, Musikhögskolan Ingesund, 2011. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:kau:diva-8723.

Abstract:
Detta arbetes syfte är att fördjupa kunskapen om den mentala förberedelsens betydelse inför musikaliska framträdanden bland konstmusikaliska blåsmusiker. Genom att undersöka hur professionella musiker agerar mentalt före, under och efter konserter är avsikten att isolera framgångsrika tankemönster och mentala strategier. I sökandet efter tidigare forskning och böcker fann jag att inte mycket forskning bedrivits på området. Jag har läst och sammanfattat ett antal böcker om vad nervositet beror på, samt olika mentala strategier för att hantera problematiken. Därefter har jag med kvalitativ intervju som metod intervjuat fyra professionella blåsmusiker i den konstmusikaliska genren.Ingen av de intervjuade ansåg sig använda några speciella mentala knep. Musikerna har i huvudsak lärt sig själva hur de ska förbereda sig på det mentala planet. Dock fann jag tydliga likheter mellan de tankar informanterna begagnade sig av inför musikaliska framträdanden, och de mentala strategier som presenteras i litteraturen på området.Studien är inte tillräckligt omfattande för att dra några generella slutsatser på området. Den visar dock på att mental förberedelse inte måste vara något främmande eller ”hokus-pokus” utan handlar om att tänka tankar som främjar individens musikaliska förhållningssätt. Den mentala förberedelsen är dessutom så välintegrerad i musikerns dagliga övande att det ibland kan vara svårt att skilja dem åt.
This work aims to increase knowledge of the mental preparation before important musical performances amongst art musical wind musicians. By examining how professional musicians operate mentally before, during and after the concerts, the intention is to isolate successful thought patterns and mental strategies. In the search for previous research and books, I discovered that little research has been conducted in this particular area. I have read and summarized a number of books that discuss the nature of being nervous, and various strategies that can be applied to deal with nervousness.Proceeding, while using the qualitative interview as a method, I interviewed four professional wind musicians in the art musical genre.None of those interviewed claimed to use any special mental tricks. The musicians have essentially taught themselves how to prepare on a mental level. However, I found a clear parallel between the thoughts respondents took advantage of before the musical performances, and the psychological strategies presented in the literature in the field.3The study is not extensive enough to draw any general conclusions in the field, yet indicates that mental preparation is not to be viewed as something alien, but rather a strategy in promoting the individual's musical approach. The mental preparation is so well integrated into the musician's daily practicing that it can sometimes be difficult to distinguish between them.

Abstract:
Att vila fysiskt är för många en självklarhet, däremot pratas det sällan om den mentala återhämtningen. Båda är viktiga och har stor påverkan på prestation och hälsa. I den här studien är syftet att undersöka elitidrottares upplevelser och erfarenheter av mental återhämtning. För att ta reda på detta har vi genomfört kvalitativa intervjuer. På vilket sätt respondenterna får återhämtning, hur de påverkas av frånvaro av mental återhämtning och om dessa idrottare upplever ett samband mellan frånvaron av mental återhämtning och psykisk ohälsa presenteras i resultatet. När vi analyserade resultaten av intervjuerna gjorde vi innehållsanalyser. Vi kom fram till att samtliga får återhämtning genom att tänka på annat än idrotten och genom att utöva aktiviteter som är roliga. Vid frånvaro av mental återhämtning upplevde majoriteten en försämrad prestation och att hälsan påverkades negativt. Respondenterna beskrev ett samband mellan psykisk ohälsa och frånvaro av mental återhämtning. Det finns relativt lite forskning inom detta område, däremot stämde resultaten med tidigare forskning som idag finns tillgänglig.
To many people, resting physically is a matter of course, however, mental recovery is rarely talked about. Both are important and have major impact on performance and health. In this study, the aim is to investigate athletes experiences of mental recovery. In order to find out, we have conducted qualitative interviews. In what way the respondents receive recovery, how they are affected by the absence of mental recovery and if these athletes experience a connection between the absence of mental recovery and mental illness is presented in the results. When we analyzed the results of the interviews, we used content analyses. We concluded that all respondents receive recovery by thinking about other things than sport and by doing activities that are fun. In the absence of mental recovery, the majority experienced a deterioration in performance and a negative impact on health. The respondents described a link between mental illness and the absence of mental recovery. There is limited research in this area, but the results were consistent with previous research available today.

Full text
Abstract:

Mental accounting, defined as the process whereby consumers code, categorize, and evaluate economic outcomes in the form of mental “budgets” (Thaler 1980; 1985), has been encouraged as a strategy to aid individuals in the regulation of finances and other resources. However, far less research has examined the pitfalls of mental accounting. Essay 1 investigates how mental accounting can lead to suboptimal decisions for others. We propose a novel hypothesis to understand an effect we term “mental stealing,” whereby mental accounts focus individuals on budgets so much that they forgo gifts that a gift-recipient would like. Essay 2 investigates how mental accounting for windfalls (i.e., unexpected gains in wealth) can lead to suboptimal spending on the self. We propose that expense categorizations are retroactively malleable, and can lead to overspending of windfalls. In total, the two essays of this dissertation enhance our study of consumer behavior by documenting new effects of mental accounts. And, in the process of documenting these new effects, this dissertation informs the mental accounting literature by identifying when mental accounting leads to suboptimal outcomes for both others and the self.

Abstract:
It is often supposed that we can make progress understanding singular thought about objects by claiming that thinkers use ‘mental files’. However, the proposal is rarely subject to sustained critical evaluation. This thesis aims to clarify and critique the claim that thinkers use mental files. In my introductory first chapter, I motivate my subsequent discussion by introducing the claim that thinkers deploy modes of presentation in their thought about objects, and lay out some of my assumptions and terminology. In the second chapter, I introduce mental files, responding to the somewhat fragmented files literature by setting out a core account of files, and outlining different ways of implementing the claim that thinkers use mental files. I highlight pressing questions about the synchronic and diachronic individuation conditions for files. In chapters three and four, I explore whether ‘de jure coreference’ can be used to give synchronic individuation conditions on mental files. I explore existing characterisations of de jure coreference before presenting my own, but conclude that de jure coreference does not give a useful account of the synchronic individuation conditions on files. In chapter five, I consider the proposal that thinkers must sometimes trade on the coreference of their mental representations, and argue that we can give synchronic individuation conditions on files in terms of trading on coreference. In chapter six, I bring together the account of files developed so far, compare it to the most developed theory of mental files published to date, and defend my account from the objection that it is circular. In chapter seven, I explore routes for giving diachronic individuation conditions on mental files. In my concluding chapter, I distinguish the core account of files from the idea that the file metaphor should be taken seriously. I suggest that my investigation of the consequences of the core account has shown that the file metaphor is unhelpful, and I outline reasons to exercise caution when using ‘files’ terminology.

Abstract:
I create process-oriented, mixed media work in an intuitive manner. I develop compositions by choosing from a wide range of materials and media. I have established a visual vocabulary that I use formally and, on occasion, symbolically to express my personal thoughts. My prints are primarily collagraphs pulled from plates that are constructed using foam, rope, sticks, cardboard, or screen prints. My fiber works are mixed media and often combine soft and stiff fabrics, dyes, pigments, embroidery, quilting, and screen printing. At times I find ways to integrate hard, rigid materials such as kiln-formed and sandblasted glass into my fiber pieces. My pieces tend to be intimately sized and detail oriented, requiring an up close and personal look from the viewer.

Abstract:
Many large urban juvenile probation departments have begun to utilize mental health courts to meet the demands of the increasing number of individuals who have mental health issues that end up in the juvenile justice system. Diversion programs are designed to keep youth in the community and out of the juvenile justice system, but it is not clear whether these programs keep individuals from re-offending. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine whether diversion programs used in the mental health courts are helping to decrease recidivism for juveniles identified with mental illness. This study was also aimed at identifying how mental illnesses affect successful completion of programming. The theory of therapeutic jurisprudence was used as the theoretical foundation to help guide this quantitative, quasi-experimental study and answer the research questions. The data utilized was from a large urban juvenile probation department, which uses the mental health court as a diversion program. Data was collected from 2009 to 2017 on both youth who participated in the program and those who chose not to participate in the program. Chi-square and logistic regression were used to analyze the data. Based on the chi-square, recidivism rates were significantly impacted by participation in the mental health court. The data presented demonstrated mental health court is effective at reducing recidivism. The potential is there for positive social change in the treatment of youth with mental illness both in the community and the juvenile justice system.

The American Psychiatric Association criteria for differential psychiatric diagnoses (DSM III-R) do not exhaust the list of socially problematic behaviors displayed by the mentally ill. The extent to which such behaviors influence a person's "career" as a deinstitutionalized patient is the major topic of this study. Fiscal crises and changing public commitments have reduced support to those with severe mental illness who are deinstitutionalized, increasing the importance of understanding how degrees of competence at activities of daily living and the extent of socially problematic behaviors affect their participation in the community. The concept Interactive Competence was developed on the basis of the writer's clinical experience and a review of the literature on community adjustment of persons with severe mental illness. The concept characterizes the social functioning of persons diagnosed as mentally ill, and includes demonstration of self-care (ADL) skills and self-management skills (trouble in relationships). Secondary analysis was performed on data from a 1984 probability sample of clients in Community Support Programs for seriously mentally ill adults. Factor analysis reduced items in the original instrument, The Uniform Client Data Instrument, to scales measuring Interactive Competence. Only persons with the diagnosis of Schizophrenia or Affective Disorders were studied (n=824 of 1053), excluding diagnoses which were diverse in nature and infrequent in occurrence. Bivariate correlation and regression techniques were used to test the major hypotheses: 1) Schizophrenics demonstrate less Interactive Competence than those with the diagnosis of Affective Disorder; 2) the greater the chronicity (length of time in the social role as a patient from point of first diagnosis) the less Interactive Competence; 3) lower level of Interactive Competence is associated with a lower level of mental health service utilization. Monitoring Interactive Competence self-care (ADL) skills and selfmanagement skills (trouble in relationships) provides new insights about the service utilization of the severely mentally ill and their families. Schizophrenics had less the Interactive Competence than those with Affective Disorders; those with lower scores on Interactive Competence used more services; family involvement influenced clients' use of crisis assistance services and urgent care services.

Relatório do Trabalho de Projeto em Enfermagem Apresentado para cumprimento dos requisitos necessários à obtenção do grau de Mestre em Enfermagem de Saúde Mental e Psiquiátrica
A Enfermagem de Saúde Mental e Psiquiátrica, foca-se na promoção da saúde mental, na prevenção, no diagnóstico e na intervenção perante respostas humanas desajustadas ou desadaptadas aos processos de transição, geradores de sofrimento, alteração ou doença mental. Como Enfermeira Especialista em Saúde Mental e Psiquiatria, é-me pedido enquanto profissional competente a compreensão dos processos de sofrimento, alteração e perturbação mental do cliente assim como as implicações para o seu projeto de vida, o potencial de recuperação e a forma como a saúde mental é afetada pelos fatores contextuais. Após análise das necessidades da comunidade, verificou-se que a recuperação (recovery) pessoal, feita através do aconselhamento, com o objetivo de desenvolver a resiliência da pessoa seria uma mais-valia, quando aplicado a pessoas com perturbações de ansiedade e depressão, sendo estas perturbações mentais, que provocam a curto prazo graves problemas com consequências por vezes irreversíveis. O objetivo da consulta é direcionado para o desemprego jovem e as repercussões na saúde mental dos mesmos. O desemprego afeta, não só o desempregado propriamente dito, mas todo o seu agregado familiar e, em geral, toda uma comunidade. Feito o desenho da consulta, iniciou-se a mesma com 5 pessoas, a população alvo são clientes maiores de 16 anos, que realizem pedido de ajuda por perturbação da ansiedade e depressão, utilizando-se técnicas psicoterapêuticas. Quando realizada a avaliação, da consulta, os resultados justificam a implementação da consulta em enfermagem saúde mental e psiquiatria, tendo-se concluído que os clientes se encontram muito satisfeitos com a mesma, verificou-se ainda remissão da sintomatologia na quase sua totalidade, em que 3 dos clientes (únicos a fazer medicação), deixaram de ter necessidade de tomar medicação. Verificou-se também que a consulta seria para manter uma vez que os custos-benefícios são benéficos e bastante positivos.

Abstract:
This study explores the subjective wellbeing and subjective experience of mental health problems in UK mental health nurses using a mixed methods approach. It aimed to understand the relationships between mental health nurses' own mental health and their subjective wellbeing, and to explore the ways in which mental health nurses managed their own mental health and wellbeing and how they negotiated for and use their experiences both within and outside of their work. The mixed methods design had two phases. In phase one an online survey was sent to mental health nurses via their national professional bodies, the Royal College of Nursing and the Mental Health Nurses Association. The survey comprised three measures of subjective wellbeing, questions about personal and familial mental health history and questions about the impact of these experiences on mental health nursing work. 237 survey responses were included in the final statistical analysis. In the second phase 27 semi structured interviews were undertaken with a purposive sample of survey respondents who had both subjective experience of mental health problems and high subjective wellbeing. A major finding of the study was that mental health nurses critically appraised their experience of delivering and receiving mental health care from the expert perspectives of both being a nurse and having their own experience of mental ill health. Personal experience of mental illness was found to influence nursing practice in a number of ways: first, through overt disclosure and negotiation of professional boundaries; second, through the ‘use of the self as a tool’, the emotional labour of nursing; third, through the formation and development of professional nursing identity. This was in the context of a broader canvas of life experiences which participants considered to influence the development of their nursing identity, the use of self and self disclosure in their work. Mental health nurses in this study had a relatively low subjective wellbeing. Low subjective wellbeing was associated with having current mental health problems, and with having past experience of mental health problem. Personal experience of living with someone with mental health problems was associated with relatively higher subjective wellbeing. This study has implications for occupational health and human resources policy within healthcare organisations. The findings suggest that mental health nurses who present to primary care or occupational health services should be offered care and treatment commensurate with their expertise and experience. Employers’ ‘staff happiness strategies’ and occupational health promotion activities should address work life balance and what nurses could do outside of their work to be well, as well as addressing the effects that team and management changes have on staff wellbeing.

Supporting people with mental health difficulties and improving prognosis is an important area of public health concern. Chapter one is a systematic review of gender differences in MHL of young people (ages 12-25 years). 14 studies were identified and critically assessed. The nature of gender differences in MHL of young people is complex but most consistently reported in depression. Females tended to have higher levels of MHL than males. The implications for public health interventions and future research are discussed. Methodological components of MHL research, such as the use of case vignettes are also considered. Chapter two is a qualitative research study of male professional footballers’ lived experiences of mental health difficulties and help-seeking using interpretative phenomenological analysis. One superordinate theme emerged from the data; Survival. This is discussed through six subordinate themes and alongside existing literature pertaining to identity, transition, personality and emotional development. The clinical implications of the findings are discussed, as well as suggestions for future research. Chapter three is a reflective paper considering the use of Cognitive Analytic Therapy as a tool for reflexivity in qualitative research. The opportunities and limitations of this approach are considered, alongside reflections on the research process.

Abstract:
A assistência à saúde mental da mulher constitui-se em uma questão de dupla intervenção, em especial para aquelas em idade reprodutiva, visto que, a própria condição de maternidade traz riscos à mulher de desenvolver patologias importantes, repercutindo no cuidado com os filhos. O escopo do adoecimento mental além dos componentes biológicos envolvem as relações entre as pessoas e entre as pessoas e seus contextos de vida e, nesse sentido os profissionais da área têm ampliado suas ações além do tratamento por meio de medicamentos. E não é sem grandes dificuldades que a proposição desses serviços tem sido colocada em prática. A legislação diz que os municípios devem apresentar projetos para os serviços que pretendem implantar e, no que dizem respeito à saúde mental, os serviços abertos têm sido incentivados, em consonância com as políticas estabelecidas a partir do movimento de reforma na assistência. No presente trabalho investigou como se deu a entrada de mulheres no serviço de uma cidade do interior do estado de MG. Foram escolhidas aleatoriamente 30 mulheres conforme critérios de inclusão e exclusão de um total de 79. Destas 30, foi possível contatar e entrevistar 21. Foi utilizado o recurso da entrevista semiestruturada com foco nos seguintes tópicos: razões para busca de assistência, situações de vida relacionadas aos sintomas, repercussões do adoecimento mental em suas vidas e percepções sobre a assistência recebida. Os resultados foram apresentados considerando-se a caracterização das participantes e em conformidade com os objetivos, foram apresentados os dados relativos aos temas abordados nas entrevistas. Quanto às características sócio demográficas verificou-se que a maior parte das participantes vive com companheiro, têm de 1 a 5 filhos com idades entre 4 meses a 20 anos de idade não trabalha fora de casa atualmente, mas já trabalhou; a faixa etária predominante foi de 30 a 34 anos; escolaridade ensino fundamental incompleto, cor da pele auto declarada branca, oriundas do próprio município onde o estudo foi realizado. Os sintomas iniciais referidos pelas participantes que as levaram a buscar pela assistência foram alterações físicas, dores de cabeça, aceleração dos batimentos cardíacos, entre outros; psicológicas, tristeza, desânimo e comportamentais, buscar isolamento, negligenciar cuidados aos filhos, dentre outros. Os diagnósticos recebidos foram predominantemente transtornos de ansiedade e de depressão. As situações da vida que, na percepção das participantes, estiveram relacionadas a seu adoecimento foram conflitos conjugais, adoecimento e uso de drogas de pessoas da família. Como este repercutiu em suas vidas esteve ligado a conflitos no trabalho e na família. A assistência recebida é vista como muito boa, mas limitada por ter apenas um profissional responsável por ela. É centrada no medicamento embora seja vista também como um espaço em que podem ser escutadas e orientadas. Ao lado do recurso médico especializado aparece também o contexto religioso como meio de apoio para o enfrentamento dos problemas. O trabalho encontrou resultados semelhantes aos de outros estudos e também pode oferecer elementos ao contexto específico em que ele foi desenvolvido para a organização de serviços de assistência
The mental health care of women is an issue in dual intervention especially for those of reproductive age as the very condition of motherhood brings risks to women of developing major diseases impacting the care of the children. The scope of mental illness in addition to biological components involve the relationships between people and between people and their life contexts and, accordingly, the practitioners have expanded their actions beyond treatment through medication. And it is not without great difficulty that the proposition of these services has been put into practice. The law says that municipalities must submit projects for the services they intend to deploy and, with regard to mental health, open services have been encouraged, in line with the policies established from the reform movement in assistance. In the present study investigated how was the entry of women in the service of a city in the state of Minas Gerais. We randomly selected 30 women as criteria for inclusion and exclusion of a total of 79. Of these 30, we were able to contact and interview 21 was used feature of semi structured interviews with focus on the following topics: reasons for seeking assistance related life situations the symptoms of mental illness impact on their lives and perceptions about the care received. The results were presented considering the characterization of participants and in accordance with the objectives; the data on the topics covered in the interviews were presented. As for socio demographic characteristics found that most participants living with partner, have 1-5 children aged 4 months to 20 years old do not work outside the home today, but has worked; the predominant age group was 30-34 years; education incomplete primary education, self-declared white skin color, derived from the same town where the study was conducted. The initial symptoms reported by participants which led them to seek the assistance were physical changes, headache, rapid heartbeat, among others; psychological, sadness, depression and behavioral seek isolation, neglect care for children, among others. The diagnoses received were predominantly anxiety disorders and depression. Life situations that, in the perception of the participants, were related to marital conflicts, illness and drug use of family members. How this impacted on their lives was linked to conflicts at work and in the family. The assistance received is seen as very good, but limited by only having one professional responsible for it. It is centered in the medicine but is also seen as a space that can be listened to and oriented. Beside the specialized medical resource also appears the religious context as a means of support for dealing with problems. The study found similar results to those of other studies and can also provide elements to the specific context in which it was developed for the organization of medical care

Eriksson. C. (2010). How can mental top form be reached? Sport psychology consultants approach to mental training. Bachelor Thesis in Public Health. Gävle University, Academy of health and working life. The purpose of this study was to examine sport psychology consultants perceptions about mental training, and how they believe that mental top form could be achieved. Qualitative interviews were used as method. In total, five informants participated in the study. The result that emerged was that the informants felt that mental top form is about creating a balance between all parts of life. Trust for himself and his character was also important as well as the ideas you have. Becoming aware of the thought processes and learn to control those in a favorable direction is important. The basis for achieving mental top form was considered to bring the basic tension in the body. It was important to have clear goals. It was also essential to provide continuity in the mental training to achieve results. A powerful tool to use was considered to be the goal images, which means to see pictures of yourself for your inner that you want to work in different situations. Furthermore, it was important to stop and get to know yourself and your needs. Mental strength was considered to be the deciding factor when all other variables are equivalent. Should all work out mentally, it would be a higher minimum level because everyone would emerge. The conclusion of this study is that the mental training techniques used in sport can also be transferred to other contexts and to other groups of people to create mental health. But it is difficult to determine precisely which techniques each one needs because all seek out different things and all have different needs. It is of great importance to the mental workout is tailored to the individual's needs.

Abstract:
Although mental and physical health are likely to share common social causes, most mental-physical comorbidity research has focused on immediate mechanisms between mental and physical illness. This thesis takes a social epidemiological approach to mental-physical comorbidity, where social disadvantage and the disproportionate availability of resources are central. The amplified burden of comorbidity in terms of poor health and functioning may have implications for the relationship between comorbidity and mental health service use (MHSU). Whilst much research examines the impact of comorbidity on physical health services, MHSU is under-researched. Furthermore, comorbidity inequalities may be perpetuated through processes of cumulative disadvantage. For example, barriers to social participation may deplete resources over time, thus leading to worse health outcomes and more adverse social circumstances. This project therefore aims to: 1. Estimate the prevalence of comorbidity, and describe inequalities in mental-physical comorbidity by key socio-demographic and socioeconomic factors 2. Describe and explain the association between comorbidity and mental health service utilisation and quality 3. Describe the trajectories of social functioning by comorbidity Analyses make use of survey data from the South East London Community Health Survey (SELCoH) phases 1 (N=1698) and 2 (N=1052) (73% response among those approached at follow-up). Statistical methods used include weighted cross-sectional and longitudinal regression analyses. The results indicate that comorbidity is associated with distinct socio-economic inequalities (most consistently by household income), increased MHSU over time, and persistent social exclusion. This suggests that comorbidity reflects a process of cumulative disadvantage, which has important implications for comorbidity and health inequality research, and local services and policy makers. Altering the downward spiralling trajectories of health and social disadvantage among those with mental-physical comorbidity may be addressed through integrated care models, while interventions aimed at reducing social inequalities may effectively 3 prevent comorbidity and interrupt its downward spiralling course of disadvantage.

Abstract:
Mental health care is critical and while governments are trying to increase awareness of the problem the available resources is not sufficient to confront the growing problem. The thesis proposes a design theory, using Gregor and Jones’s (2007) ‘Anatomy of a Design Theory’ framework, for the current mental illness dilemma that all societies are facing. The proposed solution is one of using information systems, together with domain knowledge and conventional instruments from the field of psychology to create a general screening tool. The design theory takes an ontological approach to defining the domain’s knowledge, using the MINI instrument along with expert knowledge to form the basis of the artifact. The artifact consists of four main entities: Background Information, Screening Questions, Pre-Requisite Questions and Other Questions. The thesis discusses the theoretical rationale for the screening took and then presents an instantiation of the artifact. This tool would be able to screen any person (with the exception of the mentally handicapped) to ascertain if they have a mental disorder as defined in the DSM-IV.

Dans ma thèse, j’étudie les représentations mentales et les processus cognitifs qui sous-tendent le calcul mental sur le marché. Cette thèse contribue à la recherche de prix psychologique en décrivant de nouveaux facteurs qui influencent les jugements de prix des consommateurs. En particulier, je découvre facteurs qui rendent les consommateurs plus ou moins susceptibles d’arrondir les prix vers le bas (Essai 1) et les facteurs qui déterminent leur tendance à se fixer sur les différences de pourcentage (Essai 3). En outre, cette recherche fournit de nouvelles perspectives à la littérature de budgétisation mentale en identifiant des stratégies de calcul mental qui conduisent à des estimations panier de prix plus précis (Essay 2). Dans l'ensemble, ma recherche va contribuer à notre compréhension des jugements de prix des consommateurs et proposer des contextes et des stratégies conduisant à des évaluations de prix plus précis
In my dissertation I look at mental representations and cognitive processes that underlie mental arithmetic in the marketplace. This research contributes to behavioral pricing literature by outlining novel factors that influence consumers’ price difference judgments. Particularly, I uncover factors that make consumers more or less likely to fall prey to the left-digit anchoring bias (Essay 1) and factors that determine their tendency to rely on relative thinking in price difference evaluations (Essay 3). Further, this research provides new insights to the mental budgeting literature by identifying mental computation strategies that lead to more accurate basket price estimates (Essay 2). Overall, I expect my research to contribute to our understanding of consumers’ price judgments and suggest contexts and strategies leading to more accurate price evaluations

The Ethnic Mental Illness (EMI) Scale, a questionnaire to discriminate European and Hispanic attitudes toward mental illness, was developed. Fifty-one college students of Hispanic ethnicity and 194 college students of European ethnicity completed a 150 item questionnaire measuring attitudes toward mental illness. A cross-validation sample of 50 Hispanic students and 194 European students ethnicity yielded 15 items that reliably differentiated the two groups. Based upon content, the 15 items were grouped into six categories: hopefulness, trust, biological aspects of mental illness, childhood origins, finances, and sex differences. Items which did not discriminate Hispanics and Europeans are described, as these items are possible indicators of common attitudes toward mental illness. A group of 66 Asian students also participated in the study. The items which differentiate Asians from Hispanics and Europeans are described. These items were not cross-validated.

Abstract:
The Mental Health Memories project is an online archive created in order to display and preserve the personal histories of those with mental health experiences. The project aims to fill a void in available material culture related to the history of mental health and its preservation. Participants’ contributions include: oral histories, personal items, documents, and audio. Bringing together multimedia sources, the MHMemories website allows for the preservation of these items and stories through the digitization of contributions. This method allows for participants’ items to stay in their possession while also becoming part of the archive. In order to recruit participants, the Mental Health Memories project teamed up with the Psychiatric Stories Archive, based at California State University San Bernardino, and the San Bernardino County Behavioral Health Clubhouse. Three collection days facilitated the gathering of materials. The final product is the MHMemories.org/.com website which showcases the contributions of participants. The Mental Health Memories project helps to illustrate the diversity of mental health experiences.

Despite the prediction that religion would wane in the 21st century, evidence suggests otherwise. It is important therefore for mental health professionals to understand the role of religion in the lives of their clients and to appreciate its impact on mental health. Research suggests a moderate inverse relationship between religion and depression and anxiety with some cross-cultural support. The relationship is however complex and context needs to be taken into account. The effect of culture and the importance of intrinsic religiosity are discussed. Much research is conducted in the US in the field of psychiatry, suggesting a gap in the British psychological literature. Some implications for clinical practice are discussed. The interplay between religion, culture and wellbeing is discussed

Abstract:
New immigrants to Canada are identified as a vulnerable population in mental health and, as a result, organizations are signaling the need to enhance their mental health supports. The research uses focus groups and questions based on the messaging of a Canadian school mental health program to understand how new immigrant mothers interpret and develop key aspects of their mental health literacy and how they attain parent empowerment. A thematic assessment of the knowledge, interpretation, action and decision-making of the study participants (n=7), all recent immigrants to Canada and mothers of high school students, shows that new immigrant mothers are prepared to follow a path towards mental health literacy. At the same time, however, there are barriers that can block progression towards mental health literacy for this audience. These findings are supported by three umbrella themes: the first main theme “home as haven” espouses maternal roles in mental health maintenance such as protector and communicator, the second main theme “knowledge versus suspicions of mental health and mental illness” represents informed views and support of mental illness and myths and illusions of mental illness, and the third main theme, “additional barriers to mental health literacy” includes the hardships of immigration and fear of knowledge. The study concludes that new immigrant mothers appreciate the importance of fostering mental health understanding and discussion with their children at the same time that they encounter obstacles to the advancement of their mental health literacy. This study is relevant to the field of communication in that it demonstrates the experience of new immigrant mothers as a secondary audience in mental health programming. As the caregivers of their children, they are in position to enforce the messages and health maintenance behaviours of a school-based mental health program aimed at adolescents.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo investigar a sistematização teórica acerca da loucura a partir do atual discurso bioético. Foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa qualitativa, utilizando-se a técnica de revisão sistemática de artigos científicos publicados e indexados em bases de dados. Buscou-se explicitar a relação existente entre os campos da Bioética e da saúde mental e em seguida, para contextualizar os resultados encontrados, analisou-se a historicidade da concepção da loucura e os tratamentos tradicionalmente utilizados para seu enfrentamento. Os resultados obtidos apontam para a existência de grande variedade de temas relacionados ao foco desta pesquisa, ainda que de sistematização incipiente: autonomia e determinação de competência dos doentes mentais; predição genética de doenças mentais; níveis de culpabilidade; políticas públicas de saúde mental; terapêutica e ética psiquiátricas; preconceito e estigmatização da doença e do doente mental. O trabalho sugere uma maior discussão sobre a loucura e saúde mental no campo da Bioética e pretende contribuir para ampliar o conhecimento nesse tema. _______________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT

A qualitative research was developed, using the technique of published and systematic indexed scientific article revision in databases. One searched to explicit the existing relation enters the fields of the bioethics and of the mental health and after that, to contextualized the found results, it was analyzed history of the conception of madness and the traditionally used treatments for its confrontation. The obtained results indicate great variety of related themes, although of incipient systemization: autonomy and determination of competence of the mental patients; genetic prediction of mental diseases; guilt levels; public politics of mental health; therapeutics and psychiatric ethics; prejudice and stigma of the disease and of the mental patient. The text suggests a larger discussion about the madness and mental health in the field of the bioethics and he wants to contribute to improve knowledge at this theme.

Resumo: Introdução: A competência de juízo moral, baseada na teoria de Lawrence Kohlberg, tem sido estudada por muitos pesquisadores para avaliar o desenvolvimento moral de adolescentes e adultos. Pesquisas indicam que ocorre aumento da competência de juízo moral conforme o aumento da idade, maturidade e nível educacional. Apesar disso, resultados de estudos realizados com estudantes de medicina têm demonstrado que a competência moral desse público diminui conforme o curso avança. Até o presente momento, os principais motivos apontados para essa diminuição foram os currículos dos cursos, focados na formação tecnicista, além do ambiente de alta competição entre os alunos. Contudo, não encontramos na literatura pesquisas que verificassem se há associação entre competência moral e Transtorno Mental Comum. Objetivo: Descrever a relação entre competência moral e TMC de estudantes de medicina de uma instituição pública identificando fatores associados. Método: Trata-se de um estudo transversal. Participaram deste estudo alunos matriculados no curso de medicina de uma faculdade pública do interior do estado de São Paulo, que consentiram em participar da pesquisa. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados os seguintes instrumentos: questionário que investiga aspectos sociodemográficos e da vida universitária; questionário para avaliação de Transtorno Mental Comum (TMC), o Self Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20); AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test), instrumento de rastreamento criad...
