Method: A total of 5423 high school students (52.8% females and 47.2% males, aged between 12 and 20 years) completed a selfreported questionnaire assessing negative emotions, emotional reactivity, distress tolerance, impulsivity, and NSSI in class. Results: Findings revealed that 31.1% of participants had engaged in NSSI in the past year. Gender differences on emotional correlates, NSSI frequency, methods of NSSI, suicidal ideation/attempt were found. Unique predictive ability of anger and dysphoric mood on NSSI frequency, suicidal ideation and attempt were small. NSSI frequency was the most important predictor for suicidal ideation and attempt. Gender differences on predictive power of emotional variables were also observed. Discussions: Findings of the present study contributed to the understandings of predictive ability of emotional correlates, and the associated gender differences on NSSI behaviors. The prevalence of NSSI is alarming, it is important for clinicians, schools and families to pay more attention and support to children. ····· 10361135900

Research suggests distinct mechanisms may contribute to attention problems in youth anxiety (e.g., specific, emotion-based attentional biases Puliafico & Kendall, 2006) versus ADHD (e.g., general deficits in selective/sustained attention Barkley, 1997). This book summarizes the first investigation comparing anxious and inattentive-impulsive youth on neurocognitive tests of both general and emotion-based attention processes. Findings suggest the neuropsychological differentiation of attention problems in anxious (i.e., threat-related attentional bias) versus ADHD children (i.e., selective/sustained attention) despite potentially similar phenotypes, and offer some important implications for research and practice. ····· 10361135857

Given that previous research examining the influence of stressful life events and perceived social support on youth s drug use have preponderantly been conducted in Western cultures, little is known about the influence of stressful life events and perceived social support on the drug use of non-Western youth, particularly African youth. Thus, this book has been written using data collected from drug-using youth resident in a rural community in Ghana, West Africa. Findings are discussed in the light of relevant theories and related studies. Implications for drug use interventions and health praxis, and future research on drug use are also discussed in this book. ····· 10361135800

Ainsworth identified three patterns of attachment secure, avoidant, and ambivalent based on the laboratory procedure, known as the Strange Situation Procedure (SSP). Numerous studies have replicated Ainsworth s finding and validated the SSP. In the mid 1980 s, however, a controversy in the field began when one SSP study in Japan failed to find avoidant children, questioning the applicability of the SSP and claiming that interpersonal relationships in Japan are fundamentally different, and cannot be accurately interpreted based on a theory developed in Western societies. This study pioneers an investigation of the intergenerational transmission of attachment between Japanese mothers and their 6-year-olds via the Adult Attachment Interview and the Main-Cassidy sixth-year reunion system. All patterns of attachment were found as elsewhere in the world. Importantly, a strong match of attachment status was found between Japanese mothers and their 6-year-olds. ····· 10361135639

Despite the marked increase in single custodial parents, research on this population (and more importantly into positive aspects such as subjective well-being) has been neglected. This study explores and describes the subjective well-being, including satisfaction with life and general happiness, of a sample of divorced, single custodial parents. The study identifies patterns among the aspects of subjective well-being investigated, providing support for some of the factors believed to contribute to subjective well-being. This study adds to the emerging body of research employing a positive psychology framework and is a positive step in creating an understanding of the construct of subjective well-being as experienced by a population that is under researched. This book is also valuable on a clinical level as it provides a better understanding of the subjective well-being of divorced, single parents. This information could inform healthcare workers during therapeutic interventions and non-governmental organisations during the provision of workshops or support groups for single parents. ····· 10361135618
für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Psychological contracts of safety are the beliefs of individuals about reciprocal safety obligations inferred from implicit or explicit promises. The literature on psychological contracts is growing but the existence of psychological contracts in relation to safety has not been established. This book documents the applicability of the psychological contract to occupational safety. A psychological contract of safety measure is developed and validated and a model of safety investigating breach and fulfilment of the psychological contract of safety is tested. Qualitative findings show employees do think and talk about safety in a contractual, reciprocal manner, demonstrating evidence for the construct. Quantitative findings indicate employer breach of obligations negatively influences safety climate attitudes, whilst employee fulfilment of obligations positively influences safety behaviour. Also, employee perceptions of the extent to which the employer fulfils safety obligations influences employee reciprocation of safety obligations, lending support to the assertion that positive organisational social exchange relationships has positive outcomes for occupational safety. ····· 10361135588

As we get older, we are frequently asked to make decisions about retirement, medical care, and housing. Considering certain cognitive capacities changes in older adulthood, it is important to investigate how older adults make various decisions. The present study explored age differences in emotionally difficult trade-off decisions and the underlying mechanism of the age-related effects. Results showed that older adults were more likely to use attribute-based processing strategies compared with younger adults in the high trade-off difficulty condition for both car and physician tasks. On the other hand, younger adults were more likely to use alternative-based processing strategies compared with older adults in the high trade-off difficulty condition. In the car decision task, the retrospective negative emotion instead of cognitive ability mediated the age-related effects in processing strategies in the high trade-off difficulty condition. ····· 10361134577

A vast number of theories on parenting have been postulated by various researchers. This monograph is a synthesis of the results of a study that sought to examine the demonstration of affection and control by Ghanaian parents, how religion influenced their parenting behaviour, and how their children perceived or interpreted their parents actions.The study further examined whether any of the behaviours exhibited by the parents in this study could be classified under any of the traditional parenting styles.It was discovered that the behaviour of the parents in this study did not fall wholly into any particular style of parenting. Rather, their approach to parenting was influenced more by their socio-cultural setting.This suggests that research on parenting should also be looked at from a cultural perspective and not only from the Western theoretical viewpoints. ····· 10361134518
für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray The book provides insight into the association between the personality traits of impulsivity, aggressiveness and self-reported drug and alcohol use. The participants to the study reported in this book were invited to respond to standardised self-report measures of alcohol and drug use, impulsivity and aggressiveness. Although they do not suggest causation, the computed outcomes from the data collected revealed that impulsiveness was significantly and positively correlated with self-reported drug and alcohol use. The association between the various measures of impulsivity and drug and alcohol use persisted, while no relationship was observed between aggressiveness and drug and alcohol use among the participants. In a stepwise linear regression analysis based on the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test and the Drug Abuse Screening Test, self-reported drug and alcohol use was highly related to impulsiveness, with the sensation seeking and lack of premeditation components significantly contributing to the prediction. The results are discussed in terms of the need for impulsivity-targeted interventions for individuals who are at a high risk of drug and alcohol misuse. ····· 10361134507

Glucose from the bloodstream is one energy source for the brain, and glucose stored in the brain as glycogen is another. A review of the literature on glycogen suggests that executive functioning uses it in much the same way as glucose, such that executive functioning uses glycogen and is impaired when glycogen is low. Findings on stress, physical persistence, glucose tolerance, diabetes, sleep, heat, and other topics provide general support for this view. ····· 10361134411

Communication between parents and children is a key ingredient in facilitating this development. Current opinions about bibliotherapy, using a book to assist in healing, suggest that books provide understanding about grief and death and open channels of communication. Although the use of bibliotherapy is gaining popularity, little research exists about its efficacy. Utilizing the book The Bridge to Terabithia, this study evaluated the facilitation of communication about death between 19 dyads of mother and adolescent sons.

It is delivered to parents within a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS), where many children display symptoms of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and/or Oppositional Defiant Disorder. The programme is designed to help reduce children s aggression and behaviour problems, and to increase their social competence at home and at school. This book describes the programme, reviews literature on its effectiveness and reports on the analysis of interviews with some parents who were enrolled in it. From grounded theory methodology, five themes reflected an analogy of a war zone describing the emotional and social processes of parents experiences. They included entrapment, under siege, combat and battle fatigue leading to new meanings, actions and preservation, wherein parents attempted to retain their learning and gains from the course. The findings and discussion would be of interest to clinicians, researchers and parents who wish to understand the dynamic processes involved in dealing with difficult children. ····· 10361134201

In the Winneba municipality in Ghana for instance, it has been noted that majority of the students in the senior high schools, come from different regions who attend school in this municipality. As a result, it has been noted that they spend most of their time with their peers than with their parents since they are resident students. In view of that it is assumed their peers have great influence on their behaviours. It is upon this note that the researcher would like to investigate into peer support mediating adolescents` psychosocial problems and their self-concept. This analysis should help counsellors to be aware of the prevailing psychosocial problems of adolescents in the municipality and thereby find ways of improving their services to assist them in their schools. It should help create the awareness of parents, teachers and guidance and counselling coordinators about the extent to which the peer group influence the adolescents` self-concept and also the need to develop the self-concept. ····· 10361134079
