ATEM 3-9 Adaptiver Test des Emotionswissens: Manual (SpringerTests)
by Katharina Voltmer Maria von SalischSeit den ersten Tagen ihres Lebens erleben Kinder Emotionen: ihre eigenen und die ihrer eng vertrauten Mitmenschen. Das Wissen über die Emotionen anderer Menschen ist ein grundlegender Bestandteil in allen Modellen der emotionalen Kompetenz und eine wichtige Informationsquelle ist dabei, Emotionen in den Gesichtern anderer Menschen zu lesen. Zum Emotionswissen gehört auch das Erkennen externaler und internaler Gründe für das Erleben von Gefühlen, welche Konsequenzen dies hat und außerdem das Wissen über die verschiedenen Möglichkeiten der Emotionsregulation. Die Entwicklung des Emotionswissens schreitet in den Vor- und Grundschuljahren rasant voran. Meta-Analysen zeigen, dass ein gut ausgebildetes Emotionswissen sowohl mit größeren sozialen Kompetenzen, höherer Peerakzeptanz und weniger internalisierendem und externalisierendem Problemverhalten zusammenhängt, als auch mit besseren schulischen Leistungen und positiverer Einstellung zur Schule. Eine valide Erfassung des Emotionswissen stellt die Weichen für gezielte Förderung und Interventionen im vorschulischen und schulischen Bereich.Der ATEM 3-9 ist ein Test des Emotionswissens für Kinder im Alter zwischen drei und neun Jahren. Der ATEM ist nach der Item-Response-Theorie aufgebaut und hat ein adaptives Design. Er umfasst sechs Komponenten: (1) das Erkennen von Emotionen in der Mimik anderer Menschen, (2) das Erkennen von Situationen als Emotionsauslösern, (3) das (Nicht-) Erfüllen von Wünschen als Emotionsauslöser, (4) gemischte Emotionen, (5) Überzeugungen als Emotionsauslöser, (6) Wissen über Ausdrucksregeln von Emotionen und (7) Wissen über Emotionsregulationsstrategien. In diesen Komponenten wird das Emotionswissen über die Emotionen Freude, Trauer, Ärger, Angst, Ekel und Überraschung abgefragt. Die Items des Tests sind in eine für Kinder ansprechend gestaltete Geschichte eingebettet und steigen in ihrer Schwierigkeit entsprechende der Entwicklung des Emotionswissens im Vor- und Grundschulalter an.

Aapka Banti: आपका बंटी
by Mannu Bhandari'आपका बंटी' एक कालजयी उपन्यास है। इसे हिंदी साहित्य की एक मूल्यवान उपलब्धि के रूप में देखा जाता है। इस उपन्यास की खासियत यह है कि यह एक बच्चे की निगाहों से घायल होती संवेदना का बेहद मार्मिक चित्रण करता है, जिसमें मध्यमवर्गीय परिवार में संबंध विच्छेद की स्थिति एक बच्चे की दुनिया का भयावह दुःस्वप्न बन जाती है। सभी एक-दूसरे में ऐसे उलझे हैं कि पारिवारिक त्रासदी से उपजी स्थितियां सभी के लिए यातना बन जाती हैं। कहना मुश्किल है कि यह कहानी बालक बंटी की है या माँ शकुन की। शकुन के जीवन का सत्य है कि स्त्री की जायज महत्वाकांक्षा और आत्मनिर्भरता पुरुष के लिए चुनौती है- नतीजे में दाम्पत्य तनाव से उसे अलगाव तक ला छोड़ता है। यह शकुन का नहीं, समाज में निरन्तर अपनी जगह बनाती, फैलाती और अपना कद बढ़ाती 'नई स्त्री' का सत्य है। पति-पत्नी के इस द्वन्द में यहाँ भी वही सबसे अधिक पीसा जाता है, जो नितान्त निर्दोष, निरीह और असुरक्षित है- और वह है बंटी। बच्चे की चेतना में बड़ों के इस संसार को कथाकार मन्नू भंडारी ने पहली बार पहचाना था। बाल मनोविज्ञान की गहरी समझ-बूझ के लिए चर्चित, प्रशंसित इस उपन्यास का हर पृष्ठ ही मर्मस्पर्शी और विचारोत्तेजक है।

Abducted: How People Come to Believe They Were Kidnapped by Aliens
by Susan A. ClancyThey are tiny. They are tall. They are gray. They are green. They survey our world with enormous glowing eyes. To conduct their shocking experiments, they creep in at night to carry humans off to their spaceships. Yet there is no evidence that they exist at all. So how could anyone believe he or she was abducted by aliens? Or want to believe it? To answer these questions, psychologist Susan Clancy interviewed and evaluated "abductees"--old and young, male and female, religious and agnostic. She listened closely to their stories--how they struggled to explain something strange in their remembered experience, how abduction seemed plausible, and how, having suspected abduction, they began to recollect it, aided by suggestion and hypnosis. Clancy argues that abductees are sane and intelligent people who have unwittingly created vivid false memories from a toxic mix of nightmares, culturally available texts (abduction reports began only after stories of extraterrestrials appeared in films and on TV), and a powerful drive for meaning that science is unable to satisfy. For them, otherworldly terror can become a transforming, even inspiring experience. "Being abducted," writes Clancy, "may be a baptism in the new religion of this millennium." This book is not only a subtle exploration of the workings of memory, but a sensitive inquiry into the nature of belief.
Abduction in Cognition and Action: Logical Reasoning, Scientific Inquiry, and Social Practice (Studies in Applied Philosophy, Epistemology and Rational Ethics #59)
by John R. Shook Sami PaavolaThis book gathers together novel essays on the state-of-the-art research into the logic and practice of abduction. In many ways, abduction has become established and essential to several fields, such as logic, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, philosophy of science, and methodology. In recent years this interest in abduction’s many aspects and functions has accelerated. There are evidently several different interpretations and uses for abduction. Many fundamental questions on abduction remain open. How is abduction manifested in human cognition and intelligence? What kinds or types of abduction can be discerned? What is the role for abduction in inquiry and mathematical discovery? The chapters aim at providing answer to these and other current questions. Their contributors have been at the forefront of discussions on abduction, and offer here their updated approaches to the issues that they consider central to abduction’s contemporary relevance. The book is an essential reading for any scholar or professional keeping up with disciplines impacted by the study of abductive reasoning, and its novel development and applications in various fields.
Abenteuerlustig & Hochsensibel: Wie Sie als extravertierter Hochsensibler gut leben können (essentials)
by Cordula RoemerAgil, gesellig und empfindsam? Hochsensibilität gilt allgemein als eine eher introvertierte Veranlagung. Dennoch gibt es feinfühlige Menschen, die sowohl empfindsam sind und sich zugleich extravertiert durch das Leben bewegen. Wie aber passt dies beides zusammen? Schließen sich die beiden Wesenszüge nicht einander aus? Diesen und weiteren Fragen folgt die Autorin in einem kritischen Diskurs, um mehr Klarheit in den Dschungel unterschiedlicher Zuschreibungen und Erklärungen zu bringen. Dieser Diskurs möchte dazu beitragen, die Gefahr einer möglichen Fehlinterpretation im Rahmen einer fachspezifischen Begleitung in Beratung, Coaching und Therapie bei hochsensiblen Menschen zu verringern. Der zweite Teil des Buches gibt Ihnen umfangreiche und vielfältige Tipps und Methoden zum Umgang mit einer extravertierten Hochsensibilität an die Hand.
Aberrant Beliefs and Reasoning (Current Issues in Thinking and Reasoning)
by Niall GalbraithAn aberrant belief is extreme or unusual in nature. In the most serious cases these beliefs cause emotional distress in those who hold them, and typify the core symptoms of psychological disorders. Each of the chapters in this volume seeks to examine the role that biases in reasoning can play in the formation of aberrant beliefs. The chapters consider several conjectures about the role of reasoning in aberrant belief, including the role of the jumping to conclusion bias in delusional beliefs, the probabilistic bias in paranormal beliefs, the role of danger confirming reasoning in phobias, and the controversial notion that people with schizophrenia do not succumb to specific forms of reasoning bias. There are also chapters evaluating different theoretical perspectives, and suggestions for future research. Aberrant Beliefs and Reasoning is the first volume presenting an overview of contemporary research in this growing subject area. It will be essential reading for academics and students in the fields of human reasoning, cognitive psychology and philosophy, and will also be of great interest to clinicians and psychiatrists.
Aberrant Development in Infancy: Human and Animal Studies (Psychology Library Editions: Comparative Psychology)
by Norman R. EllisOriginally published in 1975, this volume deals with animals and human infants. The chapters reflect a mixture of issues and problems ranging from the significance of sucking responses in the newborn, the development of memory, effects of rearing conditions in monkeys, and brain damage in animals, to processes underlying abnormal development of language. While it appears the issues are diverse, there is actually a common theme. One question is posed: How and why does normal development fail to occur in some human infants? The chapters show that there are many causes of aberrations: physical or psychological trauma, disease, inheritance, and drugs. Although one may be primary, "multiple causation" would still appear to be a sound principle in developmental pathology.
Abilities, Motivation and Methodology: The Minnesota Symposium on Learning and Individual Differences
by Ruth Kanfer Robert Cudeck Phillip L. AckermanDiverse developments in ability and motivation research, and in the derivations of new methodological techniques have often run on parallel courses. The editors of this volume felt that communication across domains could be vastly improved through intensive interaction between researchers. This interaction was realized in The Minnesota Symposium on Learning and Individual Differences, which directly addressed ability, motivation and methodology concerns. This book, compiled as a result of the Symposium, unites theoretical and empirical advances in learning and individual differences. The resulting volume, divided in five parts, encompasses not only prepared papers that were presented at the symposium, but compiled and edited transcriptions of the spontaneous discussions that took place at the symposium. Part I provides an orientation to the treatment of learning and individual differences from three major perspectives: experimental psychology, motivational psychology, and differential/ methodological psychology. Part II continues and expands the discussion of quantitative methodology and applications to learning and individual differences. Part III is devoted primarily to developments in the cognitive ability domain, while Part IV addresses the impact of non-cognitive, personal constructs on learning and performance. The volume concludes with Part V which contains chapters from the closing session of the conference.
Ability: A Psychological Study (Psychology Revivals)
by Victoria HazlittOriginally published in 1926, the first part of this book attempted to formulate a theory of ability in the light of recent experimental results of the time. It discusses the nature of intelligence and the problem of special abilities, and includes a study of some typical forms of genius. The second part gives an account of a three years’ experimental study of special abilities in arts and science respectively, carried out upon university students. Samples of the tests employed are included. The results are presented in non-technical form. Victoria Hazlitt was a pioneer of experimental psychology, which was particularly significant as a woman in the early twentieth century. In many cases her work anticipated later developments in psychology by many years. Today it can be enjoyed in its historical context.
Abject Relations: Everyday Worlds of Anorexia
by Megan WarinAbject Relations presents an alternative approach to anorexia, long considered the epitome of a Western obsession with individualism, beauty, self-control, and autonomy. Through detailed ethnographic investigations, Megan Warin looks at the heart of what it means to live with anorexia on a daily basis. Participants describe difficulties with social relatedness, not being at home in their body, and feeling disgusting and worthless. For them, anorexia becomes a seductive and empowering practice that cleanses bodies of shame and guilt, becomes a friend and support, and allows them to forge new social relations. Unraveling anorexia's complex relationships and contradictions, Warin provides a new theoretical perspective rooted in a socio-cultural context of bodies and gender. Abject Relations departs from conventional psychotherapy approaches and offers a different "logic," one that involves the shifting forces of power, disgust, and desire and provides new ways of thinking that may have implications for future treatment regimes.
Abjection and Abandonment: Melancholy in Philosophy and Art
by Saitya Brata DasThis book provides a thorough and insightful examination of melancholy in philosophy and art. Since the advent of “philosophy,” the question of melancholy has been intimately connected with creativity. In addition, melancholy has taken on a new importance in contemporary discourses. Accordingly, this book revisits the fascinating question of how melancholy and creativity are linked in light of contemporary thought, and gathers studies from diverse disciplines, such as aesthetic theories, psychoanalysis, cultural theory, medical studies and sociological studies. All the contributions are trans-disciplinary in nature and will broaden readers’ understanding of various issues stemming from the question of melancholy. This book will be an indispensable read for scholars, researchers and practitioners in psychology, psychoanalysis, philosophy and related fields.
Ableism: The Causes and Consequences of Disability Prejudice (Contemporary Social Issues)
by Michelle R. Nario-RedmondThe first comprehensive volume to integrate social-scientific literature on the origins and manifestations of prejudice against disabled people Ableism, prejudice against disabled people stereotyped as incompetent and dependent, can elicit a range of reactions that include fear, contempt, pity, and inspiration. Current literature—often narrowly focused on a specific aspect of the subject or limited in scope to psychoanalytic tradition—fails to examine the many origins and manifestations of ableism. Filling a significant gap in the field, Ableism: The Causes and Consequences of Disability Prejudice is the first work to synthesize classic and contemporary studies on the evolutionary, ideological, and cognitive-emotional sources of ableism. This comprehensive volume examines new manifestations of ableism, summarizes the state of research on disability prejudice, and explores real-world personal accounts and interventions to illustrate the various forms and impacts of ableism. This important contribution to the field combines evidence from multiple theoretical perspectives, including published and unpublished work from both disabled and nondisabled constituents, on the causes, consequences, and elimination of disability prejudice. Each chapter places findings in the context of contemporary theories—identifying methodological limits and suggesting alternative interpretations. Topics include the evolutionary and existential origins of disability prejudice, cultural and impairment-specific stereotypes, interventions to reduce prejudice, and how to effect social change through collective action and advocacy. Adopting a holistic approach to the study of disability prejudice, this accessibly-written volume: Provides an inclusive, up-to-date exploration of the origins and expressions of ableism Addresses how to resist ableist practices, prioritize accessible policies, and create more equitable social relations with pages earmarked for activists and allies Focuses on interpersonal and intergroup analysis from a social-psychological perspective Integrates research from multiple disciplines to illustrate critical cognitive, affective and behavioral mechanisms and manifestations of ableism Suggests future research directions based on topics covered in each chapter Ableism: The Causes and Consequences of Disability Prejudice is an important resource for social, community and rehabilitation psychologists, scholars and researchers of disability studies, and students, activists, and academics across political, sociological, and humanistic disciplines.
