Abstract

Objective: The objective was to examine the roles of cognition and affect in maternal use of physical punishment. Method: Through a review of the literature, distal and proximal predictors (cognitive and affective) of physical punishment use were identified. One hundred and ten mothers of 3-year-old children were interviewed regarding two disciplinary situations that occurred during the previous 2-week period that elicited their strongest reactions: one which resulted in the use of physical punishment (if this occurred) and one which did not. The individual and combined contributions of the predictors of physical punishment use were analyzed through logistic regression. Results: The predictors of physical punishment following individual analyses were: maternal attitude toward physical punishment, maternal perception of the seriousness and intent of the child misbehavior, and maternal anger in response to the child misbehavior. Through multivariate analysis 54% of the variance in physical punishment use was explained. Conclusions: Both cognitive and affective factors affect the decision to use physical punishment with children. These findings can be useful in establishing parenting educational programming that is directed at decreasing the rates of physical punishment and subsequently child physical abuse.

Abstract

Providers should consider this book one of the most important instructional tools in the field of mental health and addictive disorders. An recovery management plan (RMP) is a person-centered plan. In an RMP, all goals are written in both clinical terms as well as layperson language so that both the consumer and provider can relate to aspects of the RMP from their own perspective. Using the individual's own words, the RMP helps to identify the skills, knowledge, and action steps/interventions necessary to meet the goals. It also provides an opportunity for the individual to identify activities in the community that they want to pursue or organizations in the community can assist them in accomplishing their goals. The individual and the provider then decide how the provider can best assist them in accomplishing their goal. Oftentimes the RMP is actually completed by the individual, who is then given a copy to take home. This process is all about helping the individual make decisions rather than the provider being the decision-making authority. It is about the individuals taking on more responsibility in their own recovery processes. The real goal of person-centered planning is for the provider and individual, in partnership, to create a road map for reaching the individual's goals-and at the same time documenting medical necessity and supporting billing. This book will assist providers in understanding their role in the journey of developing and facilitating an individual's road map through person-centered planning.

Abstract

The wars of the Yugoslav succession, beginning in 1991 and culminating in the still unresolved Kosovo crisis, have seen large-scale killings and forced population movement as explicit major war aims, often euphemistically referred to as 'ethnic cleansing'. In this chapter, the dreadful realities of the wars and their wider socio-political contexts are less directly the focus than the ways in which these realities were reproduced and connected in specific, more or less coherent, discourses. These discourses were embedded in particular movements, which constructed ways of addressing and understanding the consequences of the conflicts on particular affected populations, and, most importantly, thereby delineated particular kinds of responses to ameliorate these consequences. Above all, the paper attempts to unravel the ways in which forms of psychosocial assistance, primarily defined in terms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), came to attain an important position within emergency responses to refugees and displaced persons in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina. The text builds on arguments which, together with Baljit Soroya, and based on research undertaken in Croatia from October 1993,1 have advanced elsewhere regarding the problematic aspects of the dominant psychosocial discourse, particularly in Croatia.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of exposure to domestic violence on child and adult development in Caucasians and ethnic minorities living in America. An extensive review of the literature is presented and discussed. Results indicate that those exposed have a wide range of emotional, behavioral, cognitive, and interpersonal responses that vary in number, severity, and persistence with the frequency of exposure. Cultural beliefs were found to play a significant role in victim help-seeking and coping with violence which moderates the individual's exposure. Implications for future research and clinical practice are provided. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2005 APA, all rights reserved)

Abstract

Reviews Psychological Assessment of Adult Posttraumatic States: Phenomenology, Diagnosis, and Measurement (2nd ed.) by John Briere (see record 2004-14153-000), one of the leading authorities, if not the leading authority, on the assessment and diagnosis of posttraumatic states. The book includes two sections. The first section addresses the phenomenology of posttraumatic states. In the second part of the book, the author shifts his focus from describing the phenomenology of traumatic stress responses to the specific task of assessing such disorders. The reviewer contends that this book is important for the practicing clinician since it covers a key area of psychological practice in which there has been little coverage. Briere's book deserves to be read, not only by psychologists who practice within the area of posttraumatic states but also by all clinicians. Failure to recognize and diagnose components of posttraumatic states can lead to major clinical errors, and, as this volume makes abundantly clear, such omissions are easily made if the clinician fails to systematically explore such issues. Fortunately, in addition to sounding the alarm for such risks, Briere provides a readily accessible guide and tools to eliminate it. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2005 APA, all rights reserved)

Abstract

The purpose of this book is to try to counteract the tide of misinformation about the field of psychology with a concise guide to some things that the well-informed student of psychology and the interested general public ought to know. The Encyclopedia requires no specialized knowledge or training. I have written all entries assuming the reader is reasonably intelligent, but relatively uninformed about psychology, or indeed about science. The organization of this book is a simple encyclopedia-style alphabetical listing, with further readings listed at the ends of entries to provide more helpful information resources, and a bibliography of useful general works at the end of the volume. Cross-references within the text of an entry to other entries in the book are highlighted in small capital letters upon their first mention. A "Guide to Related Topics" provides a separate listing of categories of related topics to help readers quickly find multiple entries with similar themes. Concluding the volumes is a detailed subject index that provides access to information within entries. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2005 APA, all rights reserved)
