Book A Study of the State trait Anxiety Inventory and the Assessment of Stress Under Simulated Conditions

Download or read book A Study of the State trait Anxiety Inventory and the Assessment of Stress Under Simulated Conditions written by and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One approach to the measurement of stress in ATC and other aviation personnel is through assessment of anxiety. One means of accomplishing this is to use the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), a 40-item self-report technique. In order to determine if stress can be simulated on the STAI, the responses of 283 subjects obtained under normal instructions were compared to their responses obtained when asked to make it appear as if they were experiencing a high degree of stress. It was found that while both the A-State (current anxiety level) and A-Trait (anxiety proneness) scales were influenced by this response set, the effect was greater for the A-State scale. Using the A-State raw score alone as an index of bias resulted in 95.7% accuracy in protocol classification. A two-step procedure, using eight items and the A-State raw score, was subsequently devised which reduced false-positive classifications of legitimate psychiatric patient profiles from 49% to 38% with no reduction in discriminatory power for 'normal' records. The application of the index to clinical and research settings in aviation was discussed. (Author).

Book Stress in Health and Disease

Download or read book Stress in Health and Disease written by Hans Selye and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 1301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stress in Health and Disease presents the principal pathways mediating the response to a stressor. It discusses the clinical background of cross-resistance and treatment with stress-hormones. It addresses the diseases of adaptation or stress diseases, diagnostic indicators, and functional changes. Some of the topics covered in the book are the concept of heterostasis; stressors and conditioning agents; morphology of frostbite; characteristics manifestations of stress; catecholamines and their derivatives; various hormones and hormone-like substances; FFA, triglycerides and lipoproteins; morphologic changes; and hypothalamo-hypophyseal system . The gastrointestinal diseases of adaptation are covered. The schizophrenia and related psychoses is discussed. The text describes the manic-depressive disease and senile psychosis. A study of the experimental cardiovascular diseases and neuropsychiatric diseases is presented. A chapter is devoted to the diseases of adaptation in animals. Another section focuses on the shift in adenohypophyseal activity and catatoxic hormones. The book can provide useful information to scientists, doctors, students, and researchers.

Book Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation  Pediatrics

Download or read book Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation Pediatrics written by Vincent J. Grant and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a practical guide to the use of simulation in pediatric training and evaluation, including all subspecialty areas. It covers scenario building, debriefing and feedback, and it discusses the use of simulation for different purposes: education, crisis resource management and interdisciplinary team training, competency assessment, patient safety and systems integration. Readers are introduced to the different simulation modalities and technologies and guided on the use of simulation with a variety of learners, including medical students, residents, practicing pediatricians, and health-related professionals. Separate chapters on each pediatric subspecialty provide practical advice and strategies to allow readers to integrate simulation into existing curriculum. Pediatric subspecialties covered include: General Pediatrics, Pediatric Emergency Medicine and Trauma, Neonatology, Pediatric Critical Care Medicine, Transport Medicine, Pediatric Anesthesia, and Pediatric Surgery amongst many others. Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation PEDIATRICS Edition is a volume in the series, Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation. The series is designed to complement Levine et al., eds., The Comprehensive Textbook of Healthcare Simulation by providing short, focused volumes on the use of simulation in a single specialty or on a specific simulation topic, and emphasizing practical considerations and guidance.

Book Transdisciplinary Engineering for Resilience  Responding to System Disruptions

Download or read book Transdisciplinary Engineering for Resilience Responding to System Disruptions written by L. Newnes and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2021-11-17 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one discipline or person can encompass all the knowledge necessary to solve complex, ill-defined problems, or problems for which a solution is not immediately obvious. The concept of Concurrent Engineering (CE) – interdisciplinary, but with an engineering focus – was developed to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the Product Creation Process (PCP) by conducting different phases of a product’s life concurrently. Transdisciplinary Engineering has transcended CE, emphasizing the crucial importance of interdisciplinary openness and collaboration. This book presents the proceedings of the 28th ISTE International Conference on Transdisciplinary Engineering (TE2021). Held online from 5 – 9 July 2021 and entitled ‘Transdisciplinary Engineering for Resilience: Responding to System Disruptions’, this is the second conference in the series held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The annual TE conference constitutes an important forum for international scientific exchange on transdisciplinary engineering research, advances, and applications, and is attended by researchers, industry experts and students, as well as government representatives. The book contains 58 peer-reviewed papers, selected from more than 80 submissions and ranging from the theoretical and conceptual to strongly pragmatic and addressing industrial best practice. The papers are grouped under 6 headings covering theory; education and training; PD methods and digital TE; industry and society; product systems; and individuals and teams. Providing an overview of the latest research results and knowledge of product creation processes and related methodologies, the book will be of interest to all researchers, design practitioners, and educators working in the field of Transdisciplinary Engineering.
