Book SynopsisEthnic-racial diversity in the United States is a source of national pride, but it is overshadowed by the reality that stigmatized groups are disproportionately burdened by negative physical health. The social contexts and their activated psychological processes that contribute to ethnic-racial health disparities are not well understood. Moreover, scientists should delineate the implications of their research for public policies that address health disparities. This Journal of Social Issues volume brings together social, developmental, cognitive, and clinical psychological research on health disparities. Furthermore, it discusses how the present research informs public health policy.Table of ContentsSECTION I: INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW Ethnic-Racial Stigma and Health Disparities: From Psychological Theory and Evidence to Public Policy Solutions Luis M.

Book SynopsisBridges the gap between the scholarly literature and pop-psych books on EI Emotional Intelligence (EI) has become a topic of vast and growing interest worldwide and is concerned with the ways in which we perceive, identify, understand, and manage emotions. It is an aspect of individual difference that can impact a number of important outcomes throughout a person's lifespan. Yet, until now there were no authoritative books that bridge the gap between scholarly articles on the subject, often published in obscure professional journals, and the kind of books found in the pop-psych sections of most large bookstores. This book fills that gap, addressing the key issues from birth through to old age, including the impact of EI on child development, social relationships, the workplace, and health. It is a useful introduction to the academic study of EI, including its history as a concept.

Book SynopsisIn everything from the policies that regulate media industries to the practices of the organizations that produce the messages to the usage patterns of the consumers that choose them, mass media are implicated in real-world interracial/ethnic dynamics. Yet, despite the obvious associations between media and issues of race and ethnicity, a comprehensive effort aimed at documenting and addressing these links has not been undertaken. The current issue, Media Representations of Race and Ethnicity: Implications for Identity, Intergroup Relations, and Public Policy, does just that. Media portrayals, media usage patterns, favorable and unfavorable effects of exposure (on diverse audiences), and policy implications, all are examined.Table of ContentsINTRODUCTIONWhy the Media’s Role in Issues of Race and Ethnicity Should be in the SpotlightDana Mastro 1 SECTION I: MEDIA PORTRAYALS OF RACE & ETHNICITYDocumenting Portrayals of Race/Ethnicity on Primetime Television over a 20-Year Span and Their Association with National-Level Racial/Ethnic AttitudesRiva Tukachinsky, Dana Mastro, and Moran Yarchi 17 SECTION II: SELF AND IDENTITY“Frozen in Time”: The Impact of Native American Media Representations on Identity and Self-Understanding Peter A.

Book SynopsisWinner of the 2021 PROSE Award for CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY and PSYCHIATRYAgainst a global backdrop of problematic adherence to medical treatment, this volume addresses and provides practical solutions to the simple question: Why don''t patients take treatments that could save their lives? The Wiley handbook of Healthcare Treatment Engagement offers a guide to the theory, research and clinical practice of promoting patient engagement in healthcare treatment at individual, organizational and systems levels. The concept of treatment engagement, as explained within the text, promotes a broader view than the related concept of treatment adherence. Treatment engagement encompasses more readily the lifestyle factors which may impact healthcare outcomes as much as medication-taking, as well as practical, economic and cultural factors which may determine access to treatment. Over a span of 32 chapters, an international panel of expert authors address this far-reaTrade ReviewAdherence to long-term therapies is perhaps one of the most important issues that deserves the attention of all stakeholders in the health care field, including doctors, nurses, pharmacists, all health care providers, but also the pharmaceutical industry, health authorities and payers. Everyone agrees that patient adherence, especially for those with chronic diseases, is far from optimal, with catastrophic consequences for the effectiveness of care, which has made more progress in the last 50 years than in the 50 centuries before. The originality of this book relies on the fact that it approaches the problem of adherence in a holistic way, going beyond the term adherence, which was itself already an advance over that of compliance. It proposes replacing it with a more general term, that of engagement. This concept reinforces the involvement of the patient, becoming a true agent in the management of his or her disease. In particular, it is necessary to distinguish between the different phases of this engagement, at the time of treatment initiation, implementation and, last but not least, persistence. This book will be of interest to all care providers. Its ambition is to clarify through theoretical models the mechanisms of patient engagement in treatment, so that practical approaches can be identified to improve it, giving both general indications and specific applications to different groups of patients. An entire section of the book is devoted to care in different contexts: adolescence, the elderly, vulnerable people, the effect of social deprivation cognitive deficits and mental illness. At a time when digital technology and artificial intelligence are transforming the practice of medicine, this book shows their promises and limitations with remarkable intelligence (Chapter 30). Inevitably, the new demands of patients to become agents of their treatment require the development of the concept of shared medical decision making and Chapter 28 devoted to it is especially brilliant. It is this sharing which really defines the concept of engagement, which makes it inseparable from patient education, which truly finds its full meaning in engagement. It is through this process that trust is generated, which is the condition for real patient engagement. It requires that care providers become aware of the human nature of patients, combining the greatness of complex thought with the presence of cognitive and emotional bias. This book therefore sets out the conditions for the real implementation of a person-centered medicine.—Professor Gérard Reach, Professor of Edocrinology and Metabolism, Paris 13 University & Head of the Endocrine Department, Avicenne Hospital, Bobigny, FranceTable of ContentsForeword viii Preface x Notes on Authors xiii Notes on Contributors xiv Acknowledgments xxv Introduction 1 Section I Background 15 1 Treatment Engagement and Adherence: A Review of the Literature 17Christiana O.

Book SynopsisAn Important Contribution to Understanding Autobiographical and Eyewitness Memory in Those with ASD and the Unique Legal Challenges They Present This book offers an in-depth discussion of how autobiographical and eyewitness memory operate in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and provides unique insights into current challenges faced by legal professionals, forensic psychologists, clinicians, and others who extend services to those with ASD. Throughout the book, authors demonstrate why a nuanced understanding of autobiographical and eyewitness memory is required when assessing individuals with ASD, given the developmental, social, and cognitive deficits at play. Authors review current legal services and structures, and explore ideas on whether and how modifications can be made to meet the needs of all individuals who seek and deserve justice, including individuals with ASD.

Book SynopsisA comprehensive Introduction to the world of brain and behavior computational models This book provides a broad collection of articles covering different aspects of computational modeling efforts in psychology and neuroscience. Specifically, it discusses models that span different brain regions (hippocampus, amygdala, basal ganglia, visual cortex), different species (humans, rats, fruit flies), and different modeling methods (neural network, Bayesian, reinforcement learning, data fitting, and Hodgkin-Huxley models, among others). Computational Models of Brain and Behavior is divided into four sections: (a) Models of brain disorders; (b) Neural models of behavioral processes; (c) Models of neural processes, brain regions and neurotransmitters, and (d) Neural modeling approaches. It provides in-depth coverage of models of psychiatric disorders, including depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), schizophrenia, and dyslexia; models of neurological disorders, including AlzheimerTable of ContentsNotes on Contributors ix Introduction xxi Part I Models of Brain Disorders 1 1 A Computational Model of Dyslexics’ Perceptual Difficulties as Impaired Inference of Sound Statistics 3Sagi Jaffe-Dax, Ofri Raviv, Yonatan Loewenstein, and Merav Ahissar 2 Computational Approximations to Intellectual Disability in Down Syndrome 15Ángel E.

Book SynopsisThis special issue of the Journal of Social Issues focuses on different ways that social history and psychologyalways co-constructing each othermatter. Focused on major events and social movements of the twentieth century, we highlight work that psychologists have done that allow us, as a field, to take seriously the relationships between social-level events and individuals' identities and self-representations, emotional lives and well-being, approaches to social justice and collective action, motivations and accomplishments. The individual and collective pursuit of social justice makes links between history and psychology visible along with their implications for relations within and between social groups.Table of ContentsINTRODUCTIONPast as Prologue: How History Becomes Psychologically Present Andrea G.

Book SynopsisThis issue of JSI focuses on interethnic marriage. Our objectives are to (1) discuss conceptual and methodological concerns; (2) examine interethnic marital relationship processes especially through the lens of interdependence theory; (3) review attitudes towards interethnic marriage; (4) assess the clinical and policy implications; and (5) synthesize the contemporary scholarship. We draw upon the subject areas of intergroup and interpersonal relations including contributions from authors across various disciplines. Given the status of interethnic marriage as a potential bellwether of social change in the United States, we believe that the present edition is as timely as it is important.Table of Contents2015 Vol. 71, No. 4Interethnic Marriage in the United States INTRODUCTION Interethnic Marriage in the United States: An Introduction 647Stanley O.

Book SynopsisIncome inequality has become the defining issue in the U.S. since the end of the recession. With stagnant wages and declining mobility among the working and middle class, many Americans believe the economic system unfairly favors the wealthy. Education can change this. To do so, however, we need to create the right conditions for students to succeed (i.e., increasing opportunity) and explore solutions to help them move ahead (i.e., improving mobility). This issue of the Journal of Social Issues, Education Inequality: Opportunity and Mobility, focuses on this theme.Table of ContentsINTRODUCTION Reframing the Inequality Debate toward Opportunity and Mobility 619Norman Eng and Allan Ornstein SECTION I: OPPORTUNITY School Finance & the Distribution of Equal Educational Opportunity in the Postrecession U.S. 629Bruce D.

Book SynopsisEmerging from cognitive behavioural traditions, mindfulness and acceptance-based therapies hold promise as new evidence-based approaches for helping people distressed by the symptoms of psychosis. These therapies emphasise changing the relationship with unusual and troublesome experiences through cultivating experiential openness, awareness, and engagement in actions based on personal values. In this volume, leading international researchers and clinicians describe the major treatment models and research background of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Person-Based Cognitive Therapy (PBCT), as well as the use of mindfulness, in individual and group therapeutic contexts. The book contains discrete chapters on developing experiential interventions for voices and paranoia, conducting assessment and case formulation, and a discussion of ways to work with spirituality from a metacognitive standpoint. Further chapters provide details of how clients view their experiences of ACT aTable of ContentsAbout the Editors xiv List of Contributors xvi Acknowledgements xix Foreword: Acceptance, Mindfulness and Psychotic Disorders: Creating a New Place to Begin xx 1 Introduction to Mindfulness and Acceptance-based Therapies for Psychosis 1 Joseph E.

Book SynopsisThere is a growing expectation that empirically supported interventions and programs, primarily CBT, will be used by forensic practitioners in correctional facilities or probational situations. This edited volume is the first authoritative resource that addresses CBT in offender settings.Trade Review“I very much enjoyed reading this book; it contains excellent chapters, and demonstrates the advances that have been made in recent years in the understanding and treatment of offenders. There is no doubt that this book will be of immense interest and use to practitioners. The book is very informative of what is currently available for treating offenders and includes user friendly forms, worksheets, and examples of case histories, which will aid the practitioner. The book offers hope to practitioners who have to deal with challenging offenders, most of whom lack motivation to change. In short, I found reading this book fascinating and inspirational.” Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine, 2014 "This book should be considered a must read for anyone who works anywhere in the corrections system, (local, state, and/or federal). Whether you are working with pretrial incarcerated offenders in a jail, convicted offenders in a prison, probation, parole, half-way house and/or community supervision, this book will offer you numerous practical worksheets and handouts and a set of new tools that will make you more effective and successful with the people in your care and supervision."
