Full text

Abstract:

Money Matters in European Artworks and Literature, c. 1400-1750 focuses on coins as material artefacts and agents of meaning in early modern arts. The precious metals, double-sided form, and emblematic character of coins had deep resonance in European culture and cultural encounters. Coins embodied Europe’s power and the labour, increasingly located in colonised regions, of extracting gold and silver. Their efficacy depended on faith in their inherent value and the authority perceived to be imprinted into them, guaranteed through the institution of the Mint. Yet they could speak eloquently of illusion, debasement and counterfeiting. A substantial introduction precedes essays by interdisciplinary scholars on five themes: power and authority in the Mint; currency and the anxieties of global trade; coins and persons; coins in and out of circulation; credit and risk. An Afterword on a contemporary artist demonstrates the continuing expressive and symbolic power of numismatic forms.

Full text

Abstract:

Chapter 38 covers how the “internal” and the “external” factors that have shaped autism substantially overlap. Autism activists have done much of the shaping, and not scientific inquiry—except that for a critical period in the shaping of autism, many of the scientists were also activists. The most influential and effective experts were often involved in autism in their personal lives. That is, many of those who have shaped our current concept of autism have been PCA—personally connected to an autistic person. Other themes explored in this essay include: (1) the increasingly popular “neurodiversity movement” that contends that autism and related disorders reflect “just a difference”, not a disorder; (2) the substantial impact of the Internet on shaping autism (“Autism lives on the Internet”); and (3) a discussion of the “unparalleled efficacy of autism advocates.” The recent history of autism is viewed in this chapter through the lens of Hacking’s broader “Making up People Project.”

Full text

Abstract:

Psychosocial Care of Cancer Survivors: A Clinician’s Guide and Workbook for Providing Wholehearted Care is a clinical resource written for healthcare practitioners with the goal of helping them enhance communication with both patients and colleagues. It addresses questions of how to bring a humanistic approach and quality attention to the growing needs of patients in the post-treatment phase of a cancer diagnosis. As a workbook, it is both a guide and an applicable resource for daily clinical practice. It provides a needed structure for clinicians to help them reconnect with the meaningful aspects of their work. Part I focuses on skillful means for providing humanistic, person-centered care. Part II offers clinicians pragmatic structures and methods they can start using with patients right away and provides a humanistic clinical framework that benefits them both personally and professionally: clinical skills vital to forming healing clinical relationships (e.g., the four C’s of communication: communication, curiosity, concern, conversation; communication tools to enhance effective collaboration, such as personal and professional boundaries, the essentials of a healing relationship, stages of the clinical interview, collegial collaboration; exercises designed for personal reflection and the implementation of the clinical skills and communication tools mentioned; and useful practices and solutions to increase the efficacy of and satisfaction with their work.

The authors pay heed to the special relation of the described competence to COVID-19 pandemic and new challenges for teachers in this connection.

Full text

Abstract:

Tiagabine is a second-generation antiepileptic drug characterized by few antiepileptic indications, with an acceptable interaction profile in polytherapy. Tiagabine has an acceptable behavioural tolerability profile, although its use in the treatment of epileptic seizures has declined. Moreover, treatment with tiagabine has often been associated with depression and irritability (especially in patients with a personal history of affective disorders, or in case of rapid initial titration). Tiagabine has no approved indications or clinical uses in psychiatry. Although tiagabine has been occasionally prescribed off-label as adjunctive treatment for anxiety disorders and neuropathic pain, there is no conclusive evidence for its efficacy in the treatment of any behavioural problems.

Shea, Nicholas. How Content Explains. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198812883.003.0008.

Full text

Abstract:

The varitel accounts of content allow us to see how the practice of representational explanation works and why content has an explanatory role to play. They establish the causal-explanatory relevance of semantic properties and are neutral about causal efficacy. Exploitable relations give the accounts an advantage over views based only on outputs. Content does valuable explanatory work in areas beyond psychology, but it need not be explanatorily valuable in every case. The varitel accounts illuminate why there should be a tight connection between content and the circumstances in which a representation develops. The accounts have some epistemological consequences. Representations at the personal level are different in a variety of ways that are relevant to content determination. Naturalizing personal-level content thus becomes a tractable research programme. Most importantly, varitel semantics offers a naturalistic account of the content of representations in the brain and other subpersonal representational systems.

Full text

Abstract:

Moral resilience, the ability of an individual to preserve or restore integrity in response to moral adversity, draws on targeted scholarship of the broader concept of resilience in other contexts. This chapter builds on definitions in the literature and qualitative analysis of clinicians’ definitions of moral resilience in order to outline the key attributes of moral resilience. The foundation of moral resilience is personal and relational integrity. The attributes of self-regulation and self-awareness, such as mindfulness, buoyancy, moral efficacy, and self-stewardship, support the preservation or restoration of integrity. These attributes are defined and illustrated with quotes from clinicians. Taken together, these attributes constitute a conceptual basis for moral resilience.

Full text

Abstract:

Patient action in chronic disease care may not be best understood as “behavior.” Healthy patients do not just emit healthy behaviors but act as agents in their own lives. Bandura revolutionized health psychology through his “agentic” approach that emphasized patient confidence or self-efficacy. Now, the personal importance of behavior change is elicited using techniques like motivational interviewing. These and other approaches that include personal goals and identity shift our focus from behavior to action. Health action includes not just management of a disease separate from the self, but self-transformation. Achieving lasting change in health actions requires attention to the autonomous quality of patient motivation. Self-determination theory offers a useful theory of intrinsic motivation and an understanding of the process of internalization of motivation. This helps us understand the promise of shared decision-making and its difference from informed consent. Ultimately, patient empowerment must be understood as fostering patient autonomy.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter looks at how the government began 1919 by beating a retreat from political policing, far from charging toward a Red Scare. However, much of the private-sector machinery of countersubversion still remained in place. Voluntarist groups were less concerned with constitutional restrictions on political policing than Congress or the White House and, having benefited directly from the wartime campaign, sought to continue their activities. In so doing, they tended to drift away from the basic question of national security that had shaped wartime policy and toward matters of personal interest. Having already demonstrated their efficacy, national security justifications for countersubversive activism persisted, but they became increasingly tenuous, as individual groups sought to denounce their rivals as disloyal, treasonous, and a danger to the general good.

Abstract:

The teaching profession is a highly stressful occupation and susceptible to burnout due to high levels of workload compared to other contact occupations. In Malaysia, the majority of science teachers are experiencing physical and mental drain after long periods of teaching service and mundane routine year in and year out. Despite the general assumptions of a teacher’s job is merely teaching from a textbook, a teacher’s workload includes teaching-related (class preparation and classroom management) and non-teaching related (administration and meetings). All these challenges required teachers to possess high self-efficacy beliefs, great teaching motivation, and positive attitudes toward teaching science. When the development of the affective domain is neglected during pre-service years, teachers’ behavioural intention in teaching science will subside gradually. This may cause emotional exhaustion, feelings of ineffectiveness, and job burnout when the pre-service teachers start to work in a high-pressure environment. The prime focus of this book includes the use of Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) approach in studying the mediating effect of attitudes toward teaching science in the relationship between teacher self-efficacy beliefs and teaching motivation on behavioural intention in teaching science. This book provides insights for policymakers to formulate courses on managing personal affective domains in the teacher education curriculum. It is also hoped that this book will be of interest to academicians and researchers on the topic related to teacher education and teaching professional development.

Abstract:

This chapter describes a collaborative project that studied the applications of Lucy Green’s informal music learning curriculum within the context of high school choral ensembles. For a 12-week period, the conductors of four high school choirs charged students in small groups to copy a Christmas carol of their choice from a recording or to create a new arrangement inspired by the recording without intervention from their conductor. They would perform those carols at a public concert during the December holiday season. The overarching research question addressed the efficacy of informal learning as choral pedagogy to nurture the students’ musicianship in choir. Data consisted of interviews, video recordings, and reflective journals. Results showed a positive impact on group cooperation, peer-directed learning, choral rehearsal strategy, leadership, and personal musical identity. It also served as a catalyst to change perceptions of students and teachers relative to musical skill and ability.

Full text

Abstract:

Healthcare providers are familiar with the diffuse and poorly localized quality of visceral pain, as well as its somatic referral patterns from internal organs to dermatomal distributions. Visceral pain also involves significant autonomic and emotional components. When primary or metastatic malignancy is responsible for visceral pain, treating the patient’s pathology and symptomatology becomes more complex. Visceral pain can be initiated by distension of hollow organs, mesenteric traction, ischemia, and inflammatory factors, all of which are associated with solid tumors in the abdomen. Furthermore, common analgesics, such as opioids, can negatively affect visceral function, leading to nausea, vomiting, or constipation, which may negate the drugs’ beneficial effects or even worsen pathology and pain. While clinicians have tools to alleviate visceral pain, none has a perfect efficacy or side effect profile. In metastatic disease, the focus of care should be on improvement of a patient’s quality of life based on his or her personal goals and expectations.

Maharaj, Ayon. “All Faiths Are Paths”. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190868239.003.0004.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter reconstructs from Sri Ramakrishna’s teachings a unique and philosophically sophisticated model of religious pluralism. For Sri Ramakrishna, God is infinite, so there are correspondingly infinite ways of approaching and realizing God. Therefore, all religions and spiritual philosophies—both theistic and nontheistic—are salvifically effective paths to one common goal: God-realization, or the direct spiritual experience of God in any of His innumerable aspects or forms. Maharaj then examines Sri Ramakrishna’s response to the thorny problem of conflicting religious truth-claims. Sri Ramakrishna reconciles religious claims about the nature of the ultimate reality by claiming that every religion captures a uniquely real aspect of the impersonal-personal Infinite Reality. Regarding other types of religious truth-claims, Sri Ramakrishna maintains that while every religion errs on some points of doctrine, these errors do not substantially diminish the salvific efficacy of religions. Finally, Maharaj defends Sri Ramakrishna’s doctrine of religious pluralism against numerous objections.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract The Challenge to the Auspices is an investigation into the interaction of Roman magistrates during the Middle Republic with the practice of auspices, with a focus on attempts to avoid, ignore, or resist this requirement, and on the consequences of such attempts. Proceeding from an examination of the Roman concepts of imperium and auspices (auspicia), especially as they relate to the realm of war, and of the constitutional position and powers of the Dictator and the Master of the Horse (magister equitum) relative to each other and to the Consuls and lower magistrates, the work presents six case studies in the fourth and third centuries bc in which Roman commanders questioned, violated, or openly rejected the need for auspices. It is argued that these instances reflect a not insignificant minority view within the Roman ruling class, the nobility, regarding the efficacy of auspices and the necessity and desirability of observing them. The catastrophic outcome in several of these events, particularly during the early years of the Second Punic War, rendered further resistance to the practice politically unsustainable, and by the second century resulted in its universal acceptance, regardless of personal belief.

These treatments include some combination of cognitive elements, exposure to interoceptive sensations similar to physiological panic sensations, in vivo exposure, and breathing retraining. A number of excellent studies have established the clinical efficacy of situational in vivo exposure for patients with moderate to severe agoraphobia and specific phobia. The most common treatment approaches for social anxiety disorder include social skills training, relaxation techniques, exposure-based treatment methods, and multicomponent cognitive-behavioral treatments.

Abstract:

Les vaccins sauvent entre 2 et 3 millions de vies chaque année et protègent l’ensemble de la population contre plus d’une douzaine de maladies potentiellement mortelles. Grâce à la vaccination, la variole a été éradiquée en 1980 et nous sommes sur la bonne voie pour éradiquer la polio. Cependant, malgré de grands progrès dans la lutte contre la rougeole, l’une des maladies les plus contagieuses connues, une augmentation des cas a été malheureusement observée ces dernières années. Raison pour laquelle une couverture vaccinale élevée (95 % ou plus) est nécessaire en dépit du défi technique et de communication majeur que cette couverture pose au personnel de santé. Des études montrent que le fait d’informer les personnes sur la qualité, la sécurité, l’efficacité et la disponibilité des vaccins ne suffit pas à modifier les comportements en matière de vaccination et, en général, n’augmente pas la couverture vaccinale. Pour cette raison, nous devons comprendre les raisons pour lesquelles les personnes choisissent de ne pas se faire vacciner ou de ne pas faire vacciner leurs enfants, afin d’entamer un dialogue respectueux à l’aide de messages le mieux adaptés et les plus efficaces. Dans ce contexte, le principal objectif de ces lignes directrices est de fournir des outils au personnel qui travaille dans le domaine de la vaccination afin de favoriser une communication efficace entre le personnel de santé et la population, de manière à renforcer, maintenir ou rétablir la confiance dans les vaccins et les programmes de vaccination dans la Région des Amériques.

Abstract:

Immunization is regarded by many as one of the greatest advances in modern civilization. The widespread use of vaccines has led to increases in life expectancy, reductions in the occurrence of childhood diseases, and is generally credited with saving millions of lives annually. But since their discovery two centuries ago, vaccines have been dogged by pockets of persistent distrust among those who are skeptical of their science or who find compulsory immunization at odds with personal liberty. The rise of these voices in contemporary culture has contributed to trends of vaccine delay and vaccine hesitancy in some communities -- a chasm between the general population and the scientific establishment that has persisted and grown at times across the last several decades. VACCINES: What Everyone Needs to Know® offers a scientifically grounded overview of the science, manufacture, and culture of vaccines in the United States and internationally. Aiming to offer an unbiased resource on this hotly debated subject, it provides accessible, authoritative overviews of the following: · How vaccines work · The history of vaccines · Vaccine policy -- who writes it, and does it matter? · The contents and manufacture of vaccines · Vaccine injury · The alleged link between vaccines and autism · Vaccines and new outbreaks Written by a leading authority in both infectious disease and vaccine education, this book offers a clear-eyed resource for parents or anyone with an interest in the use, efficacy, and controversy surrounding vaccines. In a subject area defined by partisanship, it offers reliable resource for what everyone needs to know.

Abstract:

The construct of emotional intelligence is confusing, and emotional intelligence researchers must “seem mad” to be embroiled in debate. To be sure, emotional intelligence has been one of the more controversial constructs to be considered in personnel psychology. There have been wide-ranging and substantial claims about the potential of emotional intelligence in predicting a broad range of workplace behavior. This article assesses the efficacy of the emotional intelligence construct by examining variables that have an impact at the organizational level. In particular, it examines the impact of emotional intelligence on prosocial behaviors, antisocial behaviors, and leadership. This article concludes with some recommendations for advancing research into emotional intelligence in the area of personnel psychology, and in particular, it comments on the need for emotional intelligence research to be extended to cover macro-organizational variables such as culture and climate.

Full text

Abstract:

Suffering is an unavoidable reality in healthcare. Not only are patients and families suffering but also the clinicians who care for them. Commonly the suffering experienced by clinicians is moral in nature, in part a reflection of the increasing complexity of health care, their roles within it, and the expanding range of available interventions that challenge their moral foundations. Moral suffering is the anguish that arises occurs in response to moral adversity that challenges clinicians’ integrity: the inner harmony that arises when their essential values and commitments are aligned with their choices and actions. The sources and sequelae of moral distress, one type of moral suffering, have been documented among clinicians across specialties. Transforming their suffering will require solutions that expanded individual and system strategies. Moral resilience, the capacity of an individual to restore or sustain integrity in response to moral adversity, offers a path forward. It encompasses capacities aimed at developing self- regulation and self-awareness, buoyancy, moral efficacy, self-stewardship and ultimately personal and relational integrity. Whether it involves gradual or profound radical change clinicians have the potential to transform themselves and their clinical practice in ways that more authentically reflect their character, intentions and values. The burden of healing our healthcare system is not the sole responsibility of individuals. Clinicians and healthcare organizations must work together to transform moral suffering by cultivating the individual capacities for moral resilience and designing a new architecture to support ethical practice. Used worldwide for scalable and sustainable change, the Conscious Full Spectrum approach, offers a method to solve problems to support integrity, shift patterns that undermine moral resilience and ethical practice, and leverage the inner potential of clinicians and leaders to produce meaningful and sustainable results that benefit all.

Abstract:

This chapter presents an overview of prolonged exposure therapy (PE), a highly efficacious and effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). First, emotional processing theory is reviewed, which provides the theoretical basis for PE and the key mechanisms underlying PTSD symptom reduction. Next, a synthesis of the robust evidence for the efficacy and effectiveness of PE is provided. The chapter reviews evidence that in addition to ameliorating PTSD symptoms, PE reduces secondary symptoms such as depression, suicidal ideation, anger, and substance use disorders.
