Abstract:
Decades of research have demonstrated that psychotherapy is generally effective: symptoms change for the better and most clients feel and perform better after talk therapy (Lambert, 2013). In this chapter, we examine the relationship between number of therapy sessions and symptom change. We will focus on the primary claims of the two competing views of this relationship. The dose–effect (DE) model proposes that sessions are like doses; more session-doses cause more improvement. The good-enough-improvement (GEI) model proposes that clients persist in therapy until they improve enough to meet their goals; symptom change controls session attendance. We compare these competing models by examining patterns in the treatment we have provided at our counseling center. Our primary goal was to answer what we consider the most important question about session totals and symptom change: Do session totals cause symptom change, as proposed by the DE model, or is the reverse true: does symptom change control session totals, as proposed by the GEI model? At our counseling center both models fit the data. Greater session totals are associated with more improvement for some clients and other clients leave treatment when they improve enough to meet their treatment goals.

Abstract:
This study revisits England’s culture of economic improvement between 1640 and 1720, a crucial period of its transformation into a global power backed by strong domestic industries. It is often suggested that England in this period grew confident of its prospect for unlimited growth. Merchants, inventors, and others proposed achieving profit and abundance. Such promises were then, as now, prone to perversion, however. The distinguishing feature of this study is to draw on the early modern concept of ‘projecting’ to explore the darker sides of England’s obsession with improvement. Thriving literary culture under the early Stuart kings gave rise to a predominantly negative public understanding of entrepreneurs or ‘projectors’ as people pursuing the Crown’s and their own profits at the public’s expense. The book examines how this emerging public distrust came to shape the nature of embryonic capitalism in the subseqeuent decades. By criticizing greedy projectors, the incipient public sphere helped reorient the practices of entrepreneurs and statesmen away from the most damaging of rent-seeking behaviours. Far from being a recent response to mainstream capitalism, ideas about publicly beneficial businesses have long shaped the pursuit of wealth, power, and profit. The book unravels this rich history of broken promises of public service and the ensuing public suspicion as early modern actors experienced it to throw fresh light on the emergence of consumer society and the financial revolution towards the end of the seventeenth century.

Abstract:
Air, water, and food environments profoundly influence health. Yet, many humans spend most of their time in “built environments”: the structures and places designed and built to surround human existence. These environments range from homes, schools, offices, industrial facilities, roadways, sidewalks, parks, and even vehicles. All of these environments can raise or limit risks to injuries; acute illnesses, such as asthma; and long- term disorders, such as obesity and diabetes. These environments shape economic, social, and psychological well-being—and ultimately planetary sustainability. Designing environments to promote physical activity, including walking, stair climbing, bicycling and other forms of active transportation, is a documented tool for public health improvement.

Abstract:
Researchers have theories about how the interventions they are evaluating achieve effectiveness (mechanisms of action) and how best to implement them in complex environments. It is recommended that these theories are made explicit, either by drawing on existing theories from organizational, psychological, improvement science, or sociological research, or displaying programme theories specific to the intervention that show the proposed causal pathways from content of intervention to long term outcomes. These theories can shape the research questions, sampling, data collection, analysis, interpretation and reporting of any qualitative research undertaken with RCTs. Some relevant theories are introduced, with examples of how researchers have used them with qualitative research and RCTs.

Abstract:
This chapter shows that the drive for higher productivity never attained universal popular support, though in government circles it was widely believed that such popular support was absolutely essential to achieve this goal. While most of the productivity drive came from government, it involved, at times, extensive and ambitious publicity campaigning. Hence productivity improvement is a particularly important theme in the overall story of government attempts to shape economic understanding since the 1940s. In both the 1940s and the 1960s, a Labour government placed increasing productivity at the centre of its economic policy agenda, accompanied by extensive publicity aimed primarily at the ‘shop-floor’ worker. But while there were continuities in the propaganda on productivity, there were also differences in approach and tone, which, along with the differences in the methods of propaganda employed, help us to understand the varying resonance the term had in these two decades.

Abstract:
Argentina experienced a decline in the early years of the 2000s, from 2000 to 2002, in gross domestic product and in most labour market indicators, followed by improvements in nearly all of them, tracing out a U-shaped pattern. The international crisis of 2008 impacted negatively only on the unemployment rate and the share of paid employees, but both returned to their pre-crisis levels by 2010. The chapter finds that notwithstanding Argentina’s massive downturn from 2000 to 2002 and the international crisis of 2008, labour market conditions were in a better state in 2012 than they were at the start of the millennium.

Abstract:
The Uruguayan story was one of declines in the early years of the 2000s in most indicators, followed by improvements in all of them. Economic growth was negative in the early years due to a severe economic crisis, and positive and rapid thereafter except during the international crisis of 2008. The chapter shows that most labour indicators followed the same U-shaped pattern and were in 2012 at a better level than at the beginning of the decade, with the exceptions of labour earnings and some poverty indicators. The international crisis of 2008 slowed or temporarily stopped the improvements in some labour market indicators.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the comorbidity of eating disorders with OCD, including epidemiology, neurobiology, clinical features, and treatment. These disorders frequently cooccur. There are hints that eating disorders and OCD may share underlying neural mechanisms of illness, but these neurobiological models are preliminary. Cooccurrence of eating disorders and OCD is more common in clinical populations than community samples, highlighting the importance of assessing eating and weight history among patients with OCD. Treatment for bulimia nervosa includes psychotherapy and medication options, all with good empirical support. Treatment for anorexia nervosa emphasizes behaviorally based approaches to weight restoration treatment, with no clear evidence for medication treatments. When these illnesses occur together, treatment focused on the eating disorder yields improvement in OCD symptoms. Integrating exposure and response prevention techniques into eating disorder treatment may yield synergistic improvement in both illnesses. Future research may shed light on shared and distinct neurobiological mechanisms of these illnesses.
