Описание: This volume presents innovative and contemporary methodologies and intervention protocols for the enhancement of positive psychological attributes in multicultural professional and organizational contexts. Most methods, models and approaches that underpin positive psychological interventions are confined to clinical samples, closed systems or monocultural contexts, which restrict their applicability to particular contexts. Extensive practical intervention protocols, designs and methods which usually accompany first draft intervention papers are condensed into brief paragraphs in final manuscripts or removed in their entirety. This, in turn, reduces their potential for replicability or adoption by consumers, practitioners, or industry. This volume develops guidelines for enhancing positive psychological attributes, such as positive moods (e.g. positive affect; life satisfaction), strengths (e.g. gratitude; humour), cognitions (e.g. hope; optimism) and behaviours (e.g. emotional regulation; positive relationship building) within various multicultural contexts. Thereby, it shows how positive psychology interventions can be replicated to a wide-range of contexts beyond those in which they were developed.

Описание: Cet ouvrage s’interesse aux opinions envers les mesures de discrimination positive en faveur de la promotion professionnelle des femmes. Les etudes presentees ici, menees aupres de cadres, d’employes et d’etudiants, mettent en evidence un lien negatif entre le nombre d’annees d’etudes et l’acceptation des mesures de discrimination positive, notamment l’acceptation des quotas qui favorisent l’appartenance groupale des candidates par rapport a leurs competences personnelles. Elles mettent en evidence les mecanismes qui generent ces opinions: l’orientation a la dominance sociale, l’adhesion aux principes meritocratiques, la reconnaissance de la discrimination subie par les femmes et le sentiment de menace genere par la mise en place des mesures de discrimination positive. Ces etudes examinent egalement la vulnerabilite des beneficiaires des mesures positives et leurs conduites d’auto-handicap. L’auteure met finalement en evidence la contribution de ces etudes et les implications possibles des resultats pour les decideurs.

Описание: This volume provides theoretical perspectives on and approaches to the development or enhancement of positive psychological capacities within various multi-cultural professional and organizational contexts. Specifically, it presents theoretical frameworks for the identification, development and optimization of positive psychological capacities through a contemporary, multi-cultural and multi-disciplinary lens. In recent years, the applicability of positive psychological intervention (PPI) techniques has transposed the boundaries of clinical practice into a wide array of complementary domains such as law, education, business and even design sciences such as architecture. These interventions target the enhancement of positive psychological capacities (e.g. strength-identification and use; high-performance learning; appreciative design; job-crafting) in order to not only improve individual functioning, well-being and the treatment of various forms of psychopathology but also to enhance team functioning/performance, organizational growth and community development. Despite its importance, very little research has been done on the design of PPIs applicable to multi-cultural contexts. The contributions to this volume provide insights into this hitherto neglected area of research.

Описание: One out of every ten children in the U.S. is affected by a pervasive developmental disorder (PPD). This comprehensive volume examines in depth the neuropsychological foundations of these disorders, providing up-to-date, detailed information on the full range of diagnostic, assessment, and treatment tools available to help children suffering from PDDs. <br><br> With an eye to greater diagnostic clarity, leading researchers and practitioners of neuropsychology, neurology, psychiatry, and clinical psychology discuss the phenomena of the presentations of PDD as they correspond to their neuropsychological features. They address the neuropathological and pathophysiological bases of each presentation and how these factors correspond with functional outcomes in regard to neuropsychological, emotional, behavioural, and social outcomes. The manner by which these factors are assessed, and how that information is used to differentially diagnose, will be discussed at length, along with methods of intervention. The interdisciplinary nature of this volume will make it of interest to practitioners and researchers in the field of neurology, psychiatry, paediatrics, school psychology, and clinical psychology. <br><br> <strong>Key Features:</strong> <br><br> <ul> <li>Covers the full range of identified PDDs including Autism, Asberger's, Rett's Disorder, Childhood Integrative Disorder, and PDD-Not Otherwise Specified <li>Addresses multiple issues relating to PDDs including their neuropathology and psychophysiology and advances in assessment, diagnosis, and treatment <li>Includes contributions from a leading group of researchers and practitioners from neuropsychology, neurology, psychiatry, and clinical psychology </ul></p>

Описание: Research on the Self relates to various phenomena including self?esteem, self?concept, self?verification, self?awareness, identity, self?efficacy, passion, self?determination, goals etc. that are predictive of optimal functioning and well?being. Such a research endeavor is consistent with the positive psychology movement focusing on the scientific study of what makes people psychologically healthy, happy, and satisfied in their lives, as well as on their strengths and virtues. The positive psychology movement cultivates a sensible approach to optimal human functioning and well?being in various life contexts. Chapters in this volume will illustrate some of the best of the research on the interplay between the self and positive psychology, to show the potential of this research for transforming our societies.SELF – Driving Positive Psychology and Well?being thus provides a unique insight into self and its fundamental role for well?being. This volume is intended to develop both theoretical and methodological ideas and to present empirical evidence of various phenomenon important for well ?being. The scope of the volume is thus very broad, and provides a framework for the development of the chapter as authors see most appropriate.

Описание: This volume presents clearly defined and described evidence-based positive psychology interventions (PPIs), which have been validated in multi-cultural contexts. It discusses validated PPIs which have been shown to have a significant impact in both clinical and real-world settings. From the late 1990s, there has been an upsurge in popular psychological “self-help” publications drawing from processes and principles of positive psychology. These publications are based on clinically validated PPI studies and translated in a “consumer friendly” manner. However, in these popular works the intervention methods are significantly altered from the original forms, and the contexts of the consumers are meaningfully different from those of the original study populations, the impact on outcome variables are often misinterpreted or over-inflated, and incorrect outcome variables are targeted. Original research articles also do not extensively discuss the content of the interventions, but merely present short descriptions of the PPI. As such, the intervention content cannot accurately be translated into practice. Hence, the need for this volume which discusses in depth how validated PPIs in various multi-cultural contexts work in both clinical and real-world settings.
