Lifespan Treatment for Autistic Individuals
In a world filled with hundreds of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) treatments, it is crucial to distinguish between evidence-based practices and ineffective and potentially harmful pseudoscientific approaches. For the former, we know what outcomes to expect, how to deliver procedures with fidelity and, ideally, costs of implementation versus benefits. Unfortunately, many treatments have not been similarly evaluated and the potential for wasted resources and direct harm to patients remains unknown. Interpreting ASD treatment research is complicated by differences in research norms across disciplines, competing theoretical underpinnings, and misleading information available from media sources. Overall, these issues contribute to a gap between the outcomes demonstrated in scientific studies and what is achieved in applied settings (e.g., schools, homes and clinics). Lifespan Treatment for Autistic Individuals guides professional practitioners in the selection of treatments that are procedurally and ethically best suited for their individual clients. As systematic reviews, authoritative statements, and new practice guidelines continue to emerge but are usually nested within specific disciplines, this meticulously curated volume bridges the gap between scientific research and practical application in the realms of psychology, education, and medicine. Chapter authors detail the application of included treatment approaches by providing a concise description, and essential elements and considerations for each option. Systematically identified treatment approaches are evaluated against EBP standards by recognized experts absent any proprietary or conflicting interests in the treatment. Within these pages, the editors offer content designed to empower a wide range of scholars, practitioners, and other stakeholders interested in enduring positive and efficient treatment outcomes for ASD.
Teachers Collaborated Understanding of Bullying as a Widespread Harm
Bullying in schools is a global concern with significant implications for learners' well-being and academic outcomes. In South Africa, policies such as the National School Safety Framework (2016) and the South African Schools Act (1996) address school violence. However, many teachers lack sufficient training to intervene and to support affected learners effectively. The study aimed to explore teachers' perceptions of bullying and the strategies they employ to support bullied learners. The research was conducted at a public primary school in Mtubatuba, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, where bullying is a common phenomenon. The study employed a qualitative case study approach, collecting data through visual participatory methods, including collages and drawings. An interpretive paradigm was used to capture the subjective experiences of participants. The Theory of Planned Behaviour guided the theoretical framework, and the thematic analysis used assisted in identifying relevant themes. Teachers acknowledged the detrimental effects of bullying but reported feeling underprepared to address it effectively.

Psychology and Art
Since the distant past, when humans were faced with unknown and strange phenomena, they sought a way to find peace of mind and satisfy their innate need for spirituality (connection with the sky and the unseen), beauty (internal and external), until they gradually learned that they could achieve their goal through rituals of worship and by resorting to sound, words, rhythmic sounds, and poetic (melodic) literature. One of the constant solutions to achieving peace among people from the past to the present has been the tendency towards art.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
I recently saw an image on the Internet. It showed well-organized items in a store, accompanied by the message, "Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is fun." When I later went online to try to find the image for a closer look, I came across a different "Card" showing a woman cleaning, accompanied by the words, "Some call it OCD." I call it "I'm not a dirty person." For example, there seems to be increasing media attention to the disorder, so you've probably seen occasional references to "Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder" outside of medical settings, as I have in the media. You may have come across patterns online that make jokes about obsessions/compulsions, such as the love of organizing things.

Alzheimer's and Dementia Disease
Alzheimer's disease and other dementias are progressive brain disorders, mostly affecting older adults. Alzheimer's is the most common type, making up 60-80 per cent of dementia cases. As the global population ages, the number of people with dementia is rising, creating major health and economic challenges. Risk factors include age, family history, and genetics, such as the APOE-ε4 gene. However, many lifestyle-related factors like heart disease, diabetes, smoking, poor diet, lack of exercise, low education, social isolation, and depression can be managed to lower the risk. Since current medications offer limited relief, non-drug approaches play a key role in care. These include memory training, physical activity, healthy eating (like the Mediterranean diet), music and art therapy, good sleep habits, and social engagement. A well-rounded care plan that addresses both medical and emotional needs can help improve life for patients and reduce the burden on families and health systems.

The Mysteries of Paris Vol. V

Anonymity, power, and the desire to repair what is broken guide the novel s deeper narrative as it examines choices made by those navigating treachery and kindness in equal measure. The novel continually questions whether true change is possible or if such efforts merely circle back into the same corrupted world from which they emerged. The mysteries of Paris compels reflection on responsibility, mercy, and whether redemption can overcome ruin.
