Download or read book Complex Trauma Syndrome written by V Zepinic and published by Austin Macauley. This book was released on 2022-02-28 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Complex Trauma Syndrome covers over a decade of research and clinical experience of complex psychological trauma. This book provides a concept: a practical framework and therapy model in treating complex trauma syndrome. The heart of this book is made up of the practical steps of using the Dynamic Therapy Model of which the author is a founder. This is a patient-oriented, holotropic and phased-therapy model designed to integrate the shattered personality caused by diverse, long-lasting, and pervasive effects of the psychological trauma. Dr Zepinic defines complex trauma syndrome as involving traumatic events that (1) are repetitive and prolonged; (2) have involved direct harm and/or direct threat to the trauma victim; (3) occur at a vulnerable time in the victim's life; and (4) have a severe impact upon the victim's entire life and personality, causing social and cognitive dysfunctions. This book not only covers unique matters of clinical expertise in research and therapy of the complex trauma syndrome, but also provides a guideline in treating other complex mental health disorders. Multimodal and phase-oriented treatments of complex mental health disorders, as described in this book, are practical guidelines to those professionals who are dealing with mental health issues.

Download or read book Psychological Studies of Science and Technology written by Kieran C. O'Doherty and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-24 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a significant contribution to scholarship on the psychology of science and the psychology of technology by showcasing a range of theory and research distinguished as psychological studies of science and technology. Science and technology are central to almost all domains of human activity, for which reason they are the focus of subdisciplines such as philosophy of science, philosophy of technology, sociology of knowledge, and history of science and technology. To date, psychology has been marginal in this space and limited to relatively narrow epistemological orientations. By explicitly embracing pluralism and an international approach, this book offers new perspectives and directions for psychological contributions. The book brings together leading theorists and researchers from around the world and spans scholarship across a variety of traditions that include theoretical psychology, critical psychology, feminist psychology and social constructionist approaches. Following a historical and conceptual introduction, the collection is divided into three sections: Scoping a New Psychology of Science and Technology, Applying Psychological Concepts to the Study of Science and Technology and Critical Perspectives on Psychology as a Science. The book will interest interdisciplinary scholars who work in the space of Science and Technology Studies and psychologists interested in the diverse human aspects of science and technology.

Download or read book The WEIRDest People in the World written by Joseph Henrich and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book of 2020 A Bloomberg Best Non-Fiction Book of 2020 A Behavioral Scientist Notable Book of 2020 A Human Behavior & Evolution Society Must-Read Popular Evolution Book of 2020 A bold, epic account of how the co-evolution of psychology and culture created the peculiar Western mind that has profoundly shaped the modern world. Perhaps you are WEIRD: raised in a society that is Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic. If so, you’re rather psychologically peculiar. Unlike much of the world today, and most people who have ever lived, WEIRD people are highly individualistic, self-obsessed, control-oriented, nonconformist, and analytical. They focus on themselves—their attributes, accomplishments, and aspirations—over their relationships and social roles. How did WEIRD populations become so psychologically distinct? What role did these psychological differences play in the industrial revolution and the global expansion of Europe during the last few centuries? In The WEIRDest People in the World, Joseph Henrich draws on cutting-edge research in anthropology, psychology, economics, and evolutionary biology to explore these questions and more. He illuminates the origins and evolution of family structures, marriage, and religion, and the profound impact these cultural transformations had on human psychology. Mapping these shifts through ancient history and late antiquity, Henrich reveals that the most fundamental institutions of kinship and marriage changed dramatically under pressure from the Roman Catholic Church. It was these changes that gave rise to the WEIRD psychology that would coevolve with impersonal markets, occupational specialization, and free competition—laying the foundation for the modern world. Provocative and engaging in both its broad scope and its surprising details, The WEIRDest People in the World explores how culture, institutions, and psychology shape one another, and explains what this means for both our most personal sense of who we are as individuals and also the large-scale social, political, and economic forces that drive human history. Includes black-and-white illustrations.
