Download or read book Procrastination and Task Avoidance written by Joseph R. Ferrari and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Procrastination is a fascinating, highly complex human phenomenon for which the time has come for systematic theoretical and therapeutic effort. The present volume reflects this effort. It was a labor of love to read this scholarly, timely book-the first of its kind on the topic. It was especially encouraging to find that its authors are remarkably free of the phenomenon they have been investigating. One might have expected the opposite. It has often been argued that people select topics that trouble them and come to understand their problems better by studying or treating them in others. This does not appear to be true of the procrastination researchers represented in this book. I base this conclusion on two simple observations. First, the work is replete with recent refer ences and the book itself has reached the reader scarcely a year following its completion. Second, when one considers the remarkable pace of pro grammatic research by these contributors during the past decade, it is clear that they are at the healthy end of the procrastination continuum. The fascinating history of the term procrastination is well documented in this book. The term continues to conjure up contrasting, eloquent images-especially for poets. When Edward Young wrote in 1742, "Pro crastination is the Thief of Time," he was condemning the waste of the most precious of human commodities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching INTERNAL LOCUS OF CONTROL means teaching learners to become "Internals" to control their own lives more fully and successfully. When individuals become Internals they believe they have the will and the wherewithal to set achievable goals and accomplish them. In other words, they are empowered. INTERNALS are known to: (1) experience higher levels of well-being and engage in healthier behaviors; (2) be healthier and happier and live longer lives; and (3) exhibit superior cognitive functioning and display more motivation to complete tasks, perform well, and innovate. INTERNALS, who believe they control their lives, are also more successful in learning and academic achievement, at work, and in economic endeavors as a whole. They are typically more active, more effective in social and sociological situations, willingly take responsibility, and more likely to resist outside influences that can undermine personal moral behavior. That's why, for all these reasons and more, it pays to TEACH INTERNAL LOCUS OF CONTROL. Because the instruction techniques in this book have been validated in an extensive field evaluation, you can be sure that learning to teach the six-step behavioral strategy will be satisfying and rewarding. As you watch the lives of your learners undergo transformation and enhancement each and every time, you will be amazed at just how successful you and they will be when you. . . . . .

Download or read book Choice or Chance written by Stephen Nowicki and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Much Do You Believe That What Happens to You Is the Result of Your Own Actions—or Do Circumstances Beyond Your Control Largely Determine Your Fate? Locus of Control (LOC) is a phrase used by psychologists to describe a widely effective way of assessing an individual’s potential for success—personal, social, and financial. LOC measures how much you believe what happens to you is the result of your own actions or, conversely, of forces and circumstances beyond your control. People who accept that they are largely in control of their lives tend to do better than those who feel that fate or external factors rule what they do, especially in novel and difficult situations. This book explains LOC research, until now mainly confined to academic circles, in terms easily understandable to the average person. The author, a clinical psychologist who has spent nearly five decades investigating and writing about LOC, helps the reader to explore his or her own locus of control and what those orientations might mean for how life is lived. He discusses the extensively documented relationship between LOC and academic achievement, personal and social adjustment, health, and financial success. Dr. Nowicki notes that there has been an increasing tendency among Americans to feel as though their lives are slipping out of their control, and he identifies ways to reverse this negative trend. He describes how the Locus of Control is learned and demonstrates ways in which it can be changed to yield higher levels of achievement, success, personal satisfaction, and better interactions with others.
