AIDS: The Ultimate Challenge
by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross"None of us is so unique as to be exempt from the human condition." As the numbers of reported AIDS cases continue to climb, and the disease continues to take more and more lives, those who have to deal with the complexities of this problem continue to ask: "How do we care for these terminally ill?" Using letters from patients, questions and answers between patient and doctor, and other compassionate tools, Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, the world's foremost expert on death and dying, shows us how to comfort the seriously ill and help AIDS patients through the critical "stages of dying" She addresses the stigma surrounding AIDS as a "gay disease" and makes a special plea for prisoners with AIDS, for women and children with AIDS, and for babies with AIDS. This remarkable book is warm and informative on one of the most important subjects of our time.
AIM High: Growing the Motivational Potential of Youth Psychological Assessment
by Jacqueline Pei Lia DanielsIn AIM High, Jacqueline Pei and Lia M. Daniels combine their decades of theoretical and applied expertise to bring motivation theory alongside the practice of psychological assessment. The book highlights the opportunity to stand with children and their support teams to aim high, offering a picture of children and youth that meaningfully considers growth and movement for goal attainment. The book explores ways in which all participants in the assessment process – including psychologists, caregivers, and allied professionals – share responsibility to build relational systems, seek understanding about the child, and engage in intentional communication. Pei and Daniels highlight ways in which the referral, assessment, and communication processes of assessment may grow through motivational perspectives that recognise the inherent movement of children. These ideas are leveraged to advance professional practices through the AIM Model (Assessment for Intervention and Motivation), a framework on which readers can organise and evaluate their existing experiences of the practice of psychological assessment, while emphasizing the shared understandings necessary to pursue healthy outcomes for all children. Whether you are just beginning your training to work with children or have been at it for decades, AIM High reveals compelling ideas to help you see the evidence of growth in yourself and the youth with whom you work.

ANOVA for the Behavioral Sciences Researcher
by Rudolf N. Cardinal Michael R.F. AitkenThis new book provides a theoretical and practical guide to analysis of variance (ANOVA) for those who have not had a formal course in this technique, but need to use this analysis as part of their research.From their experience in teaching this material and applying it to research problems, the authors have created a summary of the statistical theory underlying ANOVA, together with important issues, guidance, practical methods, references, and hints about using statistical software. These have been organized so that the student can learn the logic of the analytical techniques but also use the book as a reference guide to experimental designs, realizing along the way what pitfalls are likely to be encountered.

AQ Leadership: Führen mit adaptiver Intelligenz im Zeitalter der Ungewissheit (essentials)
by Carl Naughton Achim WortmannAQ fördert das Führen. Dies und was diese Förderung ausmacht, zeigen verschiedene Studien. AQ ist die Bezeichnung für ein Bündel von Fähigkeiten und Fertigkeiten von Mitarbeitenden, deren Leistungen auch in unsicheren und komplexen Situationen konstant und stark sind. Auch wenn AQ nicht in einem wörtlichen Gegensatz zum IQ steht, so kann AQ doch als eine sehr treffende Interpretation der für das 21. Jahrhundert relevanten mentalen Fähigkeiten angesehen werden. AQ hat fünf Dimensionen, deren Wirkweise in den Kapiteln mit direkten Tools und Tipps verknüpft werden, um AQ Leadership von der Forschung in die Praxis zu transferieren.
