Suicidal Ideation And Help-Negation: Not Just Hopelessness Or Prior Help., Coralie Wilson Dec 2000

Suicidal Ideation And Help-Negation: Not Just Hopelessness Or Prior Help., Coralie Wilson

Coralie J Wilson

Few distressed young people seek professional psychological help and little is known about what sources of help young people seek for different problems. In suicidal youth, poor help-seeking may be exacerbated by the process of help-negation. The current study is the first of a larger program of PhD research developed and led by the second author. In the current study, three hundred and two undergraduate university students completed a questionnaire measuring suicidal ideation, hopelessness, prior help-seeking experience, and help-seeking intentions. Participants indicated they would seek help from different sources of help for different types of problems, but friends were consistently …

Adolescent Opinions About Reducing Help-Seeking Barriers And Increasing Engagement., Coralie Wilson Dec 2000

Adolescent Opinions About Reducing Help-Seeking Barriers And Increasing Engagement., Coralie Wilson

Coralie J Wilson

Effective mental illness prevention programs are important for the safety of youth and adolescents. Research suggests that programs should facilitate appropriate help-seeking by lowering help-seeking barriers. This study used focus groups to obtain high school student opinions about actual help-seeking behaviors, reducing adolescent help-seeking barriers, raising sensitive issues with adolescents, and increasing appropriate help-source engagement. Transcript analysis revealed several themes. Relationship and trust were key approach factors for current help-seeking. Memories of successful prior helping episodes were also important. Education about appropriate help-seeking, presented in ways consistent with those currently used by adolescents (e.g., through peer networks), might reduce help-seeking …

Illicit Drug Use, Employment, And Labor Force Participation, Michael French, M. Christopher Roebuck, Pierre Alexandre Dec 2000

Illicit Drug Use, Employment, And Labor Force Participation, Michael French, M. Christopher Roebuck, Pierre Alexandre

Michael T. French

Illicit drug use has declined among the U.S. adult population, but national surveys show the majority of illicit drug users are employed. Concern about workplace productivity, absenteeism, and safety has led many employers to establish employee assistance and drug testing programs. Given the sharp interest in workplace interventions, more information is needed about the relationships between drug use and labor market status. This study estimated the probability of employment and labor force participation for different types of drug users using nationally representative data from the 1997 National Household Survey on Drug Abuse. Results strongly indicated that chronic drug use was …

Stock Optimizing In Choice When Toke Deposit Is The Operant, Abdulrazaq Imam, J Widholm, A Silberberg, S Hursh, F Warren-Boulton Dec 2000

Stock Optimizing In Choice When Toke Deposit Is The Operant, Abdulrazaq Imam, J Widholm, A Silberberg, S Hursh, F Warren-Boulton

Abdulrazaq A. Imam

Each of 2 monkeys typically earned their daily food ration by depositing tokens in one of two slots. Tokens deposited in one slot dropped into a bin where they were kept (token kept). Deposits to a second slot dropped into a bin where they could be obtained again (token returned). In Experiment 1, a fixed-ratio (FR) 5 schedule that provided two food pellets was associated with each slot. Both monkeys preferred the token-returned slot. In Experiment 2, both subjects chose between unequal FR schedules with the token-returned slot always associated with the leaner schedule. When the FRs were 2 versus …

Positivism-Plus: A Constructivist Approach To Teaching Psychopharmacology To Counselors, Cecile Brennan, Elliott Ingersoll Dec 2000

Positivism-Plus: A Constructivist Approach To Teaching Psychopharmacology To Counselors, Cecile Brennan, Elliott Ingersoll

Cecile Brennan

In this positivism-plus approach, the chemical and neurobiological bases of psychopharmacology constitute a pervasive, positivist construction of a reality that influences client behavior. However, is it argued that this biological version of reality must be integrated into the work of counseling, that is, it must be adapted to the environmental and intrapsychic contexts that clients and counselors co-construct. This chapter reviews the relationships among the medical model, constructivism, and counselor training, describes the general components of the psychopharmacology course, then discusses more specifically the relationship between the positivist and positivist-plus elements


Gender And Achievement In Music Education: The View From The Classroom, Ruth Wright Dec 2000

Gender And Achievement In Music Education: The View From The Classroom, Ruth Wright

Ruth Wright Dr

This article originates from a research project investigating the effects of gender on achievement in music education in one secondary school. The study showed a correlation between gender and achievement in music with some surprising insights into possible causes of male under-achievement in education at Key Stages 3 (11–14 years) and 4 (14–16 years) generally. It is argued that because of national testing and school performance tables, the debate on male under-achievement in this country may have become so focused on core subjects that a very important link in the argument is being overlooked – a link provided by music …

Making Inferences Concerning Physiological Responses: A Reply To Rossiter, Silberstein, Harris, & Nield, Stephen Crites, Shelley Aikman Dec 2000

Making Inferences Concerning Physiological Responses: A Reply To Rossiter, Silberstein, Harris, & Nield, Stephen Crites, Shelley Aikman

Stephen L Crites Jr.

Comments on the J. R. Rossiter et al (see record 2001-01255-001) study of brain electrical activity accompanying visual recognition of TV commercials in long-term memory. According to S. L. Crites and S. N. Aikman-Eckenrode, although it would be useful to be able to predict which scenes in a commercial would be best remembered by examining physiological responses to the initial presentation of a commercial, it is very premature to conclude that the study by Rossiter et al has found a means of doing so.


Police Chief's Perception Of Support For Community Policing, Joanne Ziembo-Vogl, Devere Woods Dec 2000

Police Chief's Perception Of Support For Community Policing, Joanne Ziembo-Vogl, Devere Woods

Joanne Ziembo-Vogl

When implementing new policies, police chiefs need to develop strategies to identify potential supporters and mobilize their assistance. Some critics question the feasibility of implementing community policing in traditional organizations. Advocates, on the other hand, suggest these issues can be overcome by such common techniques as planning and training. We use principal-agent theory to investigate police chiefs' perception of support for community policing. Training and inclusion in planning are found to be associated with levels of support down through the rank structure. At the level of line officer, the picture is less clear.
