Does Sleep Restriction Impact Performance and Metacognition in an Episodic Memory Task? An Experimental Study
Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Psychology - Cognition, grade: B, Stockholm University, language: English, abstract: Sleep restriction is common in adults and has been linked to impairments in cognition, such as memory performance. However, less is known about how sleep restriction affects metacognition, the ability to monitor one's cognitive processes. This experimental study aimed to (i) investigate if sleep restriction negatively impacts episodic memory performance and (ii) to examine if sleep restriction negatively affects two aspects of metacognition (confidence bias and metacognitive sensitivity). Using a within-subjects design, 148 participants performed an episodic memory task after two nights of restricted sleep (4h/night) and two nights of saturated sleep (9h/night) in a randomized order. The episodic memory task comprised the encoding and retrieval of indoor and outdoor images. Participants provided a confidence rating for each trial. Mixed model analyses revealed that participants performed less accurately after sleep restriction, were more confident in their performance, and had lower metacognitive sensitivity.

A comprehensive process -- from narrowing down research questions to collecting and analyzing data -- is given in detail, followed by critical reflections on how well the authors have understood and shared complex realities. Project presentations are framed by theoretical chapters that deal with the challenges and opportunities of cultural psychology and interdisciplinary research. Courageous Methods in Cultural Psychology is sure to inspire and encourage those who wish to venture on new roads "into the wild."
Language and Emotion
Interjections are linguistic expressions used to express emotion and they can also be used to convey the attitude or mental state of a speaker. As well as being an integral part of language, interjections play an important role in communication. Deficits in social communication and social interaction form part of the triad of impairments in Autism Spectrum Disorder, and Language Disorder impacts upon the communicative abilities of a person. This study is the first to investigate the use of interjections by children and adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Developmental Language Disorder, and a typically developing cohort. To date, the study of interjections is extremely limited in scope as research within this area has been overlooked by linguists. This book strives to address this issue, and a novel approach to eliciting interjections through storytelling and spontaneous play is introduced. The preliminary study is discussed at length along with its findings, but there are also a range of topics covered within the book including neurology, emotions, theory of mind, language acquisition, and interjectional usage.

Witnessing Grief
Witnessing Grief by Holly Margl is a timely and vital book for coaches and other helping professionals who face conversations with their clients daily that veer into grief, loss, and trauma, particularly now in this pandemic era.Sadly, coaches, counselors, and therapists sometimes say unhelpful or harmful things to clients experiencing and suffering from grief. Undoubtedly, most coaches don't choose their field anticipating such weighty topics. Still, here we are in this pandemic era, with anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma being customary topics of coaching conversations.Witnessing Grief is organized into three parts: Part I: Meeting Grief defines and examines grief, how we navigate its path in our lives, and how we may begin to understand how to navigate that path with our clients. Part II: Using the Enneagram gives a broad overview of the Enneagram and its nine dominant biases. Additionally, these chapters look at how we can use the wisdom of the Enneagram to look at ourselves and the lens through which we view the world. This introspection will allow us to serve our clients more deeply and create a safe space as they navigate the complex waters of loss, trauma, and grief. Part III: Putting It in Action chapters are application-oriented. They take everything we've learned in Parts I and II and allow the reader to use that information to understand better how to navigate real-life scenarios and coaching situations involving grief, trauma, and loss.Application Oriented Witnessing Grief contains specific elements to further the reader's experience and understanding of the concepts presented. These elements provide a background for the reader rather than simply "telling" the reader, "this is what you should do in this situation." Everything comes back to conscious presence in the coaching conversation, and everything about this book supports self-exploration and presence for the reader.These elements include: ● Inspirational quotes to further support and enhance the content in each chapter and as an expanded understanding of grief's impact on our lives.● "Consider This" and "Pause and Reflect" passages within the chapter narratives that require inquiry, active reflection, or contemplation with great intention. ● Closing Inquiries at the end of each chapter. These questions are intended to help you think outside the box you've built around yourself. They are to challenge your status quo and expand your awareness of the chapter's topic. ● The Epilogue: You Can Do More Than Imagine addresses common fears and pitfalls all of us fall into at one time or another as we navigate complex and distressing conversations of trauma, loss, and grief.Genuine Stories and Narratives The raw and heart-wrenching stories of trauma and loss woven into this book are real accounts; however, for anonymity and confidentiality, modifications may exist. Additionally, several coach/client scenarios to help further the reader's understanding and application of the concepts presented in Parts I and II.
Deliberate Practice in Motivational Interviewing
Deliberate practice exercises help clinicians develop competence in fundamental motivational interviewing skills to better assist clients with change goals, like quitting addictive behaviors and developing healthier habits, and to improve treatment engagement and retention. These exercises present role-playing scenarios in which two trainees act as a client and a clinician, switching back and forth under the guidance of a supervisor. The clinician improvises appropriate and authentic responses to client statements organized into three difficulty levels--beginner, intermediate, and advanced--that reflect common client questions and concerns. The first 12 exercises focus on specific skills, such as offering simple and complex reflections and affirmations, eliciting change talk, supporting client autonomy, and collaboratively mapping session agendas. These are followed by two comprehensive exercises--an annotated transcript and free-form mock therapy sessions--in which trainees integrate essential skills into one session. Step-by-step instructions guide participants through the exercises, identify criteria for skill mastery, and explain how to monitor and adjust difficulty. Guidelines and forms to help trainers and trainees get the most out of training are also provided.

The Role of Visual Active Self-Touch in Body Ownership
Master's Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Psychology - Cognition, grade: 1.0, SRH University of Heidelberg, language: English, abstract: The goal of the present study was to investigate how active visual self-touch modulates ownership illusions during the rubber hand illusion (RHI). 23 healthy test subjects participated. A 2x2x2 repeated measures ANOVA was performed, in which self-touch vs. external touch during RHI induction was examined. Additionally, the effect of touching the rubber hand during the RHI vs not touching it was measured, as well as the location of the rubber hand within or outside of peripersonal space (PPS). The measures used were the behavioral measure of the proprioceptive drift (PD) and a 10-item subjective embodiment questionnaire, including the components "ownerhip", "location" and "agency". Based on previous studies and theories regarding self-touch, it was hypothesized that self-touch would positively modulate body ownership. A further postulation was that touching the rubber hand during the RHI, instead of just performing the stroking motion without the touch, would induce a higher sense of embodiment, which could be confirmed. Lastly, it was hypothesized that embodiment would be positively modulated by the rubber hand being inside the PPS of the subject's own hand.

Individual-Based Models of Cultural Evolution
Individual-Based Models of Cultural Evolution shows readers how to create individual-based models of cultural evolution using the programming language R. The field of cultural evolution has emerged in the last few decades as a thriving, interdisciplinary effort to understand cultural change and cultural diversity within an evolutionary framework and using evolutionary tools, concepts, and methods. Given its roots in evolutionary biology, much of cultural evolution is grounded in, or inspired by, formal models. Yet many researchers interested in cultural evolution come from backgrounds that lack training in formal modelling, such as psychology, anthropology or archaeology. This book addresses that gap. It provides example code in R for readers to run their own models, moving from very simple models of the basic processes of cultural evolution, such as biased transmission and cultural mutation, to more advanced topics such as the evolution of social learning, demographic effects, and social network analysis. Features of this book: Recreates existing models in the literature to show how these were created and to enable readers to have a better understanding of their significance and how to apply them to their own research questions Provides full R code to realize models and analyse and plot outputs, with line-by-line analysis Requires no previous knowledge of the field of cultural evolution, and only very basic programming knowledge This is an essential resource for researchers and students interested in cultural evolution, including disciplines such as psychology, anthropology, archaeology, and biology as well as sociology and digital humanities.
A Practical Guide to Bonding Analysis. Bonding-Related Support in Pregnancy Presented by APPA (Academy-To-Promote-Prenatal-Attachment)
Presentation slides from the year 2022 in the subject Psychology - Developmental Psychology, language: English, abstract: This practical guide presents BONDING ANALYSIS, a method developed by two Hungarian psychoanalysts, Dr. Gy繹rgy Hidas and Dr. Jen繹 Raffai, that enables pregnant women to establish mental and emotional contact with their baby and to further develop and deepen this contact throughout the course of pregnancy. It is through prenatal bonding that the pregnant woman has the chance to play an important role in contributing to her baby's psychological and physical healthy development in utero. The significance of prenatal bonding has been worked out by experts in prenatal psychology, such as Dr. Thomas Verny, Dr. David Chamberlain and Dr. Ludwig Janus, to name but a few. One of the findings of prenatal psychology is the proven fact that everything the pregnant woman does, thinks, feels is being transmitted to her baby via different communication channels and everything the unborn baby experiences is stored as a memory in all its cells. BONDING ANALYSIS is a preventive method to avoid prenatal traumatisation and to help dissolving blockages that may impair the building up of an intensive, deep, prenatal bonding between mother and baby. Christa Balkenhol-Wright has developed a variant form of BONDING ANALYSIS which she also presents in this practical guide. She focuses on a bonding-related support in pregnancy, identifies emotional deficits the pregnant woman is not aware of and applies her concept of "Self-Parenting" so that the pregnant woman is psychologically stabilized and empowered to deal with her pregnancy, the relationship with her partner, her life and job situation in general in a more positive and stress-free way.
Combining Case Study Designs for Theory Building
Case study research is a versatile approach that allows for different data sources to be combined, with its main purpose being theory development. This book goes a step further by combining different case study research designs, informed by the authors' extensive teaching and research experience. It provides an accessible introduction to case study research, familiarizes readers with different archetypical and sequenced designs, and describes these designs and their components using both real and fictional examples. It provides thought-provoking exercises, and in doing so, prepares the reader to design their own case study in a way that suits the research objective. Written for an academic audience, this book is useful for students, their supervisors and professors, and ultimately any researcher who intends to use, or is already using, the case study approach.
Contemporary Theories and Systems in Psychology
Twenty years is a long time in the life of a science. While the historical roots of psychology have not changed since the first edition of this book, some of the offshoots of the various theories and systems discussed have been crit- ically reexamined and have undergone far-reaching modifications. New and bold research has led to a broadening of perspectives, and recent devel- opments in several areas required a considerable amount of rewriting. I have been fortunate in the last fifteen years to have worked with about 2,000 psychologists and other behavioral scientists who contributed to several collected volumes I have edited. As the editor-in-chief of the In- ternational Encyclopedia of Psychiatry, Psychology, Psychoanalysis and Neurol- ogy, I have had the privilege of reading, scrutinizing, and editing the work of 1,500 experts in psychology and related disciplines. In addition, I have written several books and monographs and over one hundred scientific papers. Armed with all that experience, I have carefully examined the pages of the first edition. Chapter 8 required substantial rewriting and several new sections have been added to other chapters: "Current Soviet Psychol- ogy" (Chapter 2, Section 7); "New Ideas on Purposivism" (Chapter 5, Sec- tion 4); "Recent Developments in the Sociological School of Psychoanalysis" (Chapter 9, Section 4); and "Present Status of Gestalt Psychology" (Chapter 12, Section 4). Chapter 15 was omitted, and two new chapters were added: Chapter 14 ("Humanistic Psychology") and Chapter 16 ("Selected Research Areas").

The Routledge Handbook for Advancing Integration in Mixed Methods Research
This groundbreaking edited book, The Routledge Handbook for Advancing Integration in Mixed Methods Research, presents an array of different integration ideas, with contributions from scholars across the globe. This handbook represents the first major volume that comprehensively discusses this topic of integration. Perhaps the most fundamental and longstanding question in mixed methods research is: How does one best integrate disparate forms of information to produce the best form of inquiry? Each of the 34 seminal chapters in this handbook accelerates the discussion of integration across a broad range of disciplines, including education, arts-based analyses, and work in the Global South, as well as special topics such as psychometrics and media research. Many of the chapters present new topics that have never been written about before, and all chapters offer cutting-edge approaches to integration. They also offer different perspectives of integration - leading the introductory chapter to offer a new and comprehensive definition for integration, as follows: "referring to the optimal mixing, combining, blending, amalgamating, incorporating, joining, linking, merging, consolidating, or unifying of research approaches, methodologies, philosophies, methods, techniques, concepts, language, modes, disciplines, fields, and/or teams within a single study." The concluding chapter offers a meta-framework that accounts for this definition and is designed to help scholars think more about integration in a way that represents a continuous, dynamic, iterative, interactive, synergistic, and holistic meaning-making process. This handbook will be an essential reference work for all scholars and practitioners using or seeking to use mixed methods in their research.
