Daniel Lassiter, 2010-05-31 This volume synthesizes social, cognitive, ecological, evolutionary, & neuroscience research, showing that the way in which people perceive the world changes with their cognitions, emotions, goals, motivations, culture, & other factors traditionally considered exclusive to social, personality, & cognitive psychology. |
| mariann weierich: A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women Siri Hustvedt, 2016-12-06 A compelling, radical, “richly explored” (The New York Times Book Review), and “insightful” (Vanity Fair) collection of essays on art, feminism, neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy from prize-winning novelist Siri Hustvedt, the acclaimed author of The Blazing World and What I Loved. In a trilogy of works brought together in a single volume, Siri Hustvedt demonstrates the striking range and depth of her knowledge in both the humanities and the sciences. Armed with passionate curiosity, a sense of humor, and insights from many disciplines she repeatedly upends received ideas and cultural truisms. “A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women” (which provided the title of this book) examines particular artworks but also human perception itself, including the biases that influence how we judge art, literature, and the world. Picasso, de Kooning, Louise Bourgeois, Anselm Kiefer, Susan Sontag, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Karl Ove Knausgaard all come under Hustvedt’s intense scrutiny. “The Delusions of Certainty” exposes how the age-old, unresolved mind-body problem has shaped and often distorted and confused contemporary thought in neuroscience, psychiatry, genetics, artificial intelligence, and evolutionary psychology. “What Are We? Lectures on the Human Condition” includes a powerful reading of Kierkegaard, a trenchant analysis of suicide, and penetrating reflections on the mysteries of hysteria, synesthesia, memory and space, and the philosophical dilemmas of fiction. A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women is an “erudite” (Booklist), “wide-ranging, irreverent, and absorbing meditation on thinking, knowing, and being” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). |
| mariann weierich: Fugitive Testimony Janet Neary, 2016-11-01 Fugitive Testimony traces the long arc of the African American slave narrative from the eighteenth century to the present in order to rethink the epistemological limits of the form and to theorize the complicated interplay between the visual and the literary throughout its history. Gathering an archive of ante- and postbellum literary slave narratives as well as contemporary visual art, Janet Neary brings visual and performance theory to bear on the genre’s central problematic: that the ex-slave narrator must be both object and subject of his or her own testimony. Taking works by current-day visual artists, including Glenn Ligon, Kara Walker, and Ellen Driscoll, Neary employs their representational strategies to decode the visual work performed in nineteenth-century literary narratives by Elizabeth Keckley, Solomon Northup, William Craft, Henry Box Brown, and others. She focuses on the textual visuality of these narratives to illustrate how their authors use the logic of the slave narrative against itself as a way to undermine the epistemology of the genre and to offer a model of visuality as intersubjective recognition rather than objective division. |
| mariann weierich: Seven and a Half Lessons about the Brain Lisa Feldman Barrett, 2020 Have you ever wondered why you have a brain? Let renowned neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett demystify that big gray blob between your ears. In seven short essays (plus a bite-sized story about how brains evolved), this slim, entertaining, and accessible collection reveals mind-expanding lessons from the front lines of neuroscience research. You'll learn where brains came from, how they're structured (and why it matters), and how yours works in tandem with other brains to create everything you experience. Along the way, you'll also learn to dismiss popular myths such as the idea of a lizard brain and the alleged battle between thoughts and emotions, or even between nature and nurture, to determine your behavior. |

With anxiety rates tripling and depression rates quadrupling since 2019, Brave New You could not be timelier as it gives readers actionable steps to navigate the underlying cause of our current mental health crisis: fear. Not fight-or-flight, but the kind of pervasive, debilitating everyday fears triggered by problems, stresses, and challenging issues we all face in our day-to-day lives. Along with the author’s personal stories about overcoming her fears, Brave New You combines the latest research in biology and psychology to help readers identify the hidden sources of struggle while teaching them to use neurohacks that will give them all the tools and strategies they need to live a fuller, happier life. |
| mariann weierich: Chronicle of a Silence Endured Guido Verona, 2014-04-02 Chronicle of a Silence Endured is a highly intriguing and deeply woven fictional piece. It chronicles the psychological and spiritual trials that befall the 'hero' as he moves through life bound by the stigma of his childhood abuse. The result is a self-imposed and family-reinforced sentence of intolerable silence across 35 years of his life. The complex events that unfold are further explained applying highly-detailed psychological and spiritual research and theory. The work offers new knowledge, entertainment, and inspiration. The events and topics that arise here are becoming increasingly universal, and that is what makes the piece so important and so relevant. |
| mariann weierich: Biopsychosocial Factors of Stress, and Mindfulness for Stress Reduction Holly Hazlett-Stevens, 2022-02-14 This volume brings together basic research on the nature of stress reactivity with up-to-date research on the effectiveness and mechanisms of mindfulness interventions. The chapters review the major research areas that elucidate the impact of stress reactivity on health, and explore the mechanisms and effectiveness of mindfulness-based approaches for stress reduction and improved physical and emotional health. The first section examines biopsychosocial mechanisms of stress reactivity such as allostasis and allostatic load, neurobiology of stress, biology of the “fight-or-flight” and “tend-and-befriend” responses, and psychoneuroimmunology. This section concludes by addressing the roles of perception and appraisal, including the role of perceived threat in stress reactivity as well as the role that negative perceptions of the stress response itself play in compromising health. The second section opens with review of leading psychological models of mindfulness, including self-regulation, reperceiving, and the Intention, Attention, Attitude (IAA) triaxiomatic model. Subsequent chapters discuss mindfulness-based interventions and mechanisms of change for stress and related clinical conditions including chronic pain, traumatic stress, anxiety and related disorders, and clinical depression. The final chapter reviews possible neural networks and brain mechanisms associated with mindfulness meditation practice. As the research on stress reactivity and mindfulness-based stress reduction continues to proliferate, this book offers readers a single volume covering the most relevant information across this vast terrain. Other available volumes offer in-depth coverage of stress research with little mention of mindfulness and stress reduction. Conversely, many texts on the topic of mindfulness and mindfulness-based interventions do not adequately cover the biopsychosocial processes of stress reactivity. |
| mariann weierich: From Object to Experience Harry Francis Mallgrave, 2018-06-28 Harry Francis Mallgrave combines a history of ideas about architectural experience with the latest insights from the fields of neuroscience, cognitive science and evolutionary biology to make a powerful argument about the nature and future of architectural design. Today, the sciences have granted us the tools to help us understand better than ever before the precise ways in which the built environment can affect the building user's individual experience. Through an understanding of these tools, architects should be able to become better designers, prioritizing the experience of space - the emotional and aesthetic responses, and the sense of homeostatic well-being, of those who will occupy any designed environment. In From Object to Experience, Mallgrave goes further, arguing that it should also be possible to build an effective new cultural ethos for architectural practice. Drawing upon a range of humanistic and biological sources, and emphasizing the far-reaching implications of new neuroscientific discoveries and models, this book brings up-to-date insights and theoretical clarity to a position that was once considered revolutionary but is fast becoming accepted in architecture. |

| mariann weierich: Unspeakable Lynn Sacco, 2009-08-17 First place, Large Nonprofit Publishers Illustrated Covers, 2010 Washington Book PublishersNamed one of the Top Five Books of 2009 by Anne Grant, The Providence Journal This history of father-daughter incest in the United States explains how cultural mores and political needs distorted attitudes toward and medical knowledge of patriarchal sexual abuse at a time when the nation was committed to the familial power of white fathers and the idealized white family. For much of the nineteenth century, father-daughter incest was understood to take place among all classes, and legal and extralegal attempts to deal with it tended to be swift and severe. But public understanding changed markedly during the Progressive Era, when accusations of incest began to be directed exclusively toward immigrants, blacks, and the lower socioeconomic classes. Focusing on early twentieth-century reform movements and that era’s epidemic of child gonorrhea, Lynn Sacco argues that middle- and upper-class white males, too, molested female children in their households, even as official records of their acts declined dramatically. Sacco draws on a wealth of sources, including professional journals, medical and court records, and private and public accounts, to explain how racial politics and professional self-interest among doctors, social workers, and professionals in allied fields drove claims and evidence of incest among middle- and upper-class white families into the shadows. The new feminism of the 1970s, she finds, brought allegations of father-daughter incest back into the light, creating new societal tensions. Against several different historical backdrops—public accusations of incest against “genteel” men in the nineteenth century, the epidemic of gonorrhea among young girls in the early twentieth century, and adult women’s incest narratives in the mid-to late twentieth century—Sacco demonstrates that attitude shifts about patriarchal sexual abuse were influenced by a variety of individuals and groups seeking to protect their own interests. |
| mariann weierich: What Images Do Jan Backlund, Henrik Oxvig, Michael Renner, Martin Soberg, 2019-09-13 When images look like something they do so because they are different from what they resemble. This difference is not sufficiently captured by the traditional theories of representation and mimesis, and yet it is the condition for any such theory. Various contemporary image theorists have pointed out that Plato already understood that images are not what they look like. Images have their own existence which cannot be identified with a concept, but should be examined in terms of actions. This book comprises fifteen articles that investigate what images do, particularly in relation to the disciplines of architecture, design and visual arts. It claims that it is the differentiating power of images-their actions-which constitutes their capacity to look like something they are not, as well as create something that does not yet exist. What Images Do addresses the crucial role that images might play in producing and investigating what we have not yet seen or understood in and of reality. |

| mariann weierich: The Palgrave Handbook of Prison and the Family Marie Hutton, Dominique Moran, 2019-06-11 This handbook brings together the international research focussing on prisoners’ families and the impact of imprisonment on them. Under-researched and under-theorised in the realm of scholarship on imprisonment, this handbook encompasses a broad range of original, interdisciplinary and cross-national research. This volume includes the experiences of those from countries often unrepresented in the prisoner’s families’ literature such as Russia, Australia, Israel and Canada. This broad coverage allows readers to consider how prisoners’ families are affected by imprisonment in countries embracing very different penal philosophies; ranging from the hyper-incarceration being experienced in the USA to the less punitive, more welfare-orientated practices under Scandinavian ‘exceptionalism’. Chapters are contributed by scholars from numerous and diverse disciplines ranging from law, nursing, criminology, psychology, human geography, and education studies. Furthermore, contributions span various methodological and epistemological approaches with important contributions from NGOs working in this area at a national and supranational level. The Palgrave Handbook of Prison and the Family makes a significant contribution to knowledge about who prisoners’ families are and what this status means in practice. It also recognises the autonomy and value of prisoners’ families as a research subject in their own right. |

| mariann weierich: NGUỒN GỐC CỦA CẢM XÚC – Bí ẩn sống động của bộ não Lisa Feldman Barrett , 2023-12-07 Được ngợi khen bởi nghiên cứu chặt chẽ, lối viết rõ ràng và những hiểu biết thực tế, Nguồn gốc cảm xúc – Bí ẩn sống động của bộ não của giáo sư Lisa Feldman Barrett là công trình nghiên cứu thách thức các quan điểm truyền thống về cảm xúc và đưa ra một lý thuyết mới về cấu trúc cảm xúc dựa trên những nghiên cứu mới nhất về khoa học thần kinh, tâm lý học và triết học. Tác giả lập luận rằng cảm xúc không phải là những phản ứng cố định, được lập trình sẵn tự động xảy ra với chúng ta để đáp lại các sự kiện bên ngoài. Thay vào đó, cảm xúc được xây dựng bởi bộ não khi nó xử lý thông tin giác quan đến và khớp nó với những kinh nghiệm, dự đoán và chuẩn mực văn hóa trong quá khứ. Cuốn sách giải thích cách bộ não liên tục dự đoán và cập nhật mô hình thế giới của chính nó, cũng như quá trình này làm nền tảng cho những trải nghiệm cảm xúc của chúng ta như thế nào. Tác giả cũng thảo luận về cách cảm xúc được hình thành bởi bối cảnh xã hội và văn hóa của chúng ta, cũng như cách chúng có thể khác nhau giữa các cá nhân và nền văn hóa. Qua đó, cuốn sách cũng đưa ra những gợi ý thực tế về cách chúng ta có thể hiểu rõ hơn và điều chỉnh trải nghiệm cảm xúc của mình cũng như cách chúng ta có thể phát triển các chiến lược hiệu quả hơn để giao tiếp và điều chỉnh cảm xúc. Nguồn gốc cảm xúc là một cuốn sách đột phá thách thức những giả định lâu nay về bản chất của cảm xúc và mang đến một hiểu biết mới về cách bộ não xây dựng những trải nghiệm cảm xúc, đồng thời có tác động đáng kể đến các lĩnh vực tâm lý học, khoa học thần kinh và triết học.

| mariann weierich: 7 lezioni e 1/2 sul cervello Lisa Feldman Barrett, 2021-04-08 È l'organo che più ci contraddistingue come specie, quello che – a torto o a ragione – ci fa sentire superiori agli altri esseri viventi, il fondamento della nostra civiltà e, per alcuni, la sede dell'anima; ma a che cosa serve davvero il nostro cervello, e come funziona? In 7 lezioni e 1⁄2 sul cervello Lisa Feldman Barrett condensa le più importanti e recenti ricerche scientifiche e svela segreti, meccanismi e curiosità di questo nostro meraviglioso organo: al contrario di quanto si crede, non serve per pensare; è fatto come il cervello di tutti gli altri animali e funziona come una rete; durante la crescita è estremamente plasmabile; prevede (quasi) tutto quello che facciamo e collabora con i cervelli delle altre persone; dà origine a diversi tipi di mente ed è perfino in grado di creare e modificare la realtà in cui viviamo. Il nostro cervello non è il più grande del regno animale e nemmeno il migliore in assoluto. Ma è straordinariamente flessibile, perfettamente adattato a ricevere e analizzare l'enorme quantità di informazioni che provengono da altri cervelli o dall'esterno per rispondere alle situazioni più diverse – che sia l'approssimarsi di una minaccia, l'emozione trasmessa dal volto di chi ci sta davanti, l'urgente necessità di cibo... o di una dose di caffeina. Rapide e illuminanti, le 7 lezioni e 1⁄2 sul cervello di Lisa Feldman Barrett demoliscono con ironia miti consolidati e dipingono un ritratto inaspettato di quella massa di poco più di un chilo che ci rende unici e umani. |
| mariann weierich: Sexueller Missbrauch in pädagogischen Kontexten Marion Baldus, Richard Utz, 2011-07-13 Sexueller Missbrauch und sexualisierte Handlungen in pädagogischen Kontexten sind nicht einfach als Perversionen Einzelner abzutun. Vielmehr ergeben sie sich aus einer Konstellation struktureller und personaler Faktoren, die mit jeder pädagogischen und sozialpädagogischen Tätigkeit verbunden sind und zueinander in einem Spannungsverhältnis stehen. So müssen die sozial-/pädagogischen Akteure als professionelle Praktiker in der direkten Interaktion von Erziehung und Bildung stets Nähe herstellen und gleichzeitig Distanz halten. Eine Balance zu halten, ist die besondere Anforderung, mit der die Professionalität von Sozialpädagogen und Pädagogen steht und fällt. Dieses Buch beleuchtet aus verschiedenen disziplinären Perspektiven, durch welche personalen und kontextuellen Faktoren diese Balance gestört wird, in eine Sexualisierung der Beziehung umschlägt und sich entlang des Machtgefälles zwischen Professionellen und ihren Adressaten zu einem Missbrauch vereinseitigt. Konkrete Maßnahmen und Handlungsempfehlungen weisen Lösungsperspektiven zur Prävention sexuellen Missbrauchs auf. |

| mariann weierich: Colonial Jerusalem Thomas Philip Abowd, 2014-06-24 In one of the few anthropological works focusing on a contemporary Middle Eastern city, Colonial Jerusalem explores a vibrant urban center at the core of the decades-long Palestinian-Israeli conflict. This book shows how colonialism, far from being simply a fixture of the past as is often suggested, remains a crucial component of Palestinian and Israeli realities today. Abowd deftly illuminates everyday life under Israel’s long military occupation as it is defined by processes and conditions of apartness and separation as Palestinians are increasingly regulated and controlled. Abowd examines how both national communities are progressively divided by walls, checkpoints, and separate road networks in one of the most segregated cities in the world. Drawing upon recent theories on racial politics, colonialism, and urban spatial dynamics, Colonial Jerusalem analyzes the politics of myth, history, and memory across an urban landscape integral to the national cosmologies of both Palestinians and Israelis and meaningful to all communities. |
| mariann weierich: How Emotions Are Made Lisa Feldman Barrett, 2017-03-07 Preeminent psychologist Lisa Barrett lays out how the brain constructs emotions in a way that could revolutionize psychology, health care, the legal system, and our understanding of the human mind. “Fascinating . . . A thought-provoking journey into emotion science.”—The Wall Street Journal “A singular book, remarkable for the freshness of its ideas and the boldness and clarity with which they are presented.”—Scientific American “A brilliant and original book on the science of emotion, by the deepest thinker about this topic since Darwin.”—Daniel Gilbert, best-selling author of Stumbling on Happiness The science of emotion is in the midst of a revolution on par with the discovery of relativity in physics and natural selection in biology. Leading the charge is psychologist and neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett, whose research overturns the long-standing belief that emotions are automatic, universal, and hardwired in different brain regions. Instead, Barrett shows, we construct each instance of emotion through a unique interplay of brain, body, and culture. A lucid report from the cutting edge of emotion science, How Emotions Are Made reveals the profound real-world consequences of this breakthrough for everything from neuroscience and medicine to the legal system and even national security, laying bare the immense implications of our latest and most intimate scientific revolution. |
| mariann weierich: Reliability and Validity in Qualitative Research Jerome Kirk, Marc L. Miller, 1986 Qualitative research is a sociological and anthropological tradition of inquiry. Most critically, qualitative research involves sustained interaction with the people being studied in their own language, and on their own turf. To see qualitative research as strictly disengaged from any form of counting is to miss the point that its basic strategy depends on the reconciliation of diverse research tactics. It is our view that qualitative research can be performed as social science. Understanding the workings of a scientific endeavor, whether it is of the natural or social variety, entails an appreciation of its objectivity. By this convention, the objectivity of a piece of qualitative research is evaluated in terms of the reliability and validity of its observations - the two concepts to which this monograph is devoted. |
| mariann weierich: Scale Construction and Psychometrics for Social and Personality Psychology Mike Furr, 2011-02-15 Providing conceptual and practical foundations in scale construction and psychometrics for producers and consumers of social/personality research, this guide covers basic principles, practices, and processes in scale construction, scale evaluation, scale use, and interpretation of research results in the context of psychological measurement.

| mariann weierich: Afterwar Nancy Sherman, 2015-04-08 Movies like American Sniper and The Hurt Locker hint at the inner scars our soldiers incur during service in a war zone. The moral dimensions of their psychological injuries--guilt, shame, feeling responsible for doing wrong or being wronged-elude conventional treatment. Georgetown philosophy professor Nancy Sherman turns her focus to these moral injuries in Afterwar. She argues that psychology and medicine alone are inadequate to help with many of the most painful questions veterans are bringing home from war. Trained in both ancient ethics and psychoanalysis, and with twenty years of experience working with the military, Sherman draws on in-depth interviews with servicemen and women to paint a richly textured and compassionate picture of the moral and psychological aftermath of America's longest wars. She explores how veterans can go about reawakening their feelings without becoming re-traumatized; how they can replace resentment with trust; and the changes that need to be made in order for this to happen-by military courts, VA hospitals, and the civilians who have been shielded from the heaviest burdens of war. 2.6 million soldiers are currently returning home from war, the greatest number since Vietnam. Facing an increase in suicides and post-traumatic stress, the military has embraced measures such as resilience training and positive psychology to heal mind as well as body. Sherman argues that some psychological wounds of war need a kind of healing through moral understanding that is the special province of philosophical engagement and listening. |

| mariann weierich: Affect Dynamics Christian E. Waugh, Peter Kuppens, 2021-11-27 This book features cutting edge research on the theory and measurement of affect dynamics from the leading experts in this emerging field. Authors will discuss how affect dynamics are instantiated across neural, psychological and behavioral levels of processing and provide state of the art analytical and computational techniques for assessing temporal changes in affective experiences. In the section on Within-episode Affect Dynamics, the authors discuss how single emotional episodes may unfold including the duration of affective responses, the dynamics of regulating those affective responses and how these are instantiated in the brain. In the section on Between-episode Affect Dynamics, the authors discuss how emotions and moods at one point in time may influence subsequent emotions and moods, and the importance of the time-scales on which we assess these dynamics. In the section on Between-person Dynamics the authors propose that interactions and relationships with others form much of the basis of our affect dynamics. Lastly, in the section on Computational Models of Affect, authors provide state of the art analytical techniques for assessing and modeling temporal changes in affective experiences.
