Making Sense Together
Author: Peter Buirski
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1538141930
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
The second edition of Making Sense Together provides a greater examination of the clinical practice of the intersubjective perspective. Listening and responding intersubjectively is concerned with attuning to affect, putting words to affective experience, and maintaining a caring relationship that offers the kind of needed self-objective experience missing in development. In addition, the intersubjective perspective co-constructs a developmental narrative that contextualizes the evolution of the person’s troubles. In this new and updated edition, authors Peter Buirski, Pamela Haglund, and Emily Markley draw on more than twenty years of combined experience teaching and supervising in the practice of the intersubjective perspective.

Jacques Rivette
Author: Douglas Morrey
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1526141507
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Jacques Rivette is perhaps the best-kept secret of French cinema. A founding figure in the New Wave, and at the centre of the Cahiers du cinéma team, he developed into one of the most unusual and adventurous French directors of the last sixty years, yet his work remains little-known in comparison with his contemporaries, and this study is the first in English to look at the full span of his career. Starting with his decisively influential film criticism of the 1950s, it moves from the New Wave through the complex, experimental films of the 1970s to the challenging, playful dramas which ensured his visibility during the following two decades, and ends in the present, including Rivette’s most recent films, Histoire de Marie et Julien (2003) and Ne touchez pas la hache (2007). The book takes a thematic approach, offering detailed discussion of key elements of Rivette’s film world, including games, conspiracy and jealousy, as well as a study of what Rivette’s cinema adds to our understanding of key theoretical concepts in Film Studies such as narrative, space and adaptation. There are many close analyses of sequences from Rivette’s films including Paris nous appartient (1961), Céline et Julie vont en bateau (1974) and La Belle Noiseuse (1991).

Understanding People
Author: Trevor Butt
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0230000592
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Understanding People provides an overview and critique of current psychological assumptions about people and what differentiates them, and replaces them with a set of ideas taken from social constructionism. It begins with an examination of contemporary theories, then explores the critique of the social constructionists, before laying out the basis of an understanding of human action and behaviour, drawing on phenomenology and personal construct theory. Using everyday experience to illustrate the issues in personality theory (Is behaviour situation-specific? Why do we have a sense of self? Is there an unconscious?), this book will breathe life into an area of psychology that is so often arid, and, in the eyes of students, divorced from their world.

Language Disorders in Children and Adults
Author: Victoria Joffe
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0470987901
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
This book contains contributions from eminent clinicians and researchers in the field of language impairment, and crosses the bridge between children and adults. It reflects the developments that have taken place in Speech and Language Therapy over the past 10 years and focuses on issues in SLT that have recently come into ascendancy. These include: personal and social consequences of language disability, and how to measure these; the evidence base for speech and language therapy interventions; language processing and the interplay between language and cognition; and the degree to which impairments in one affect the other. There is a growing concern about the needs of adolescents who have language difficulties - a group who, by their age, development and experience straddle the child/adult divide. It extends the themes by looking at future implications and sets out the challenges ahead for the speech and language therapy profession.

Information is easy. Understanding is hard. From incomprehensible tax policies to confusing medical explanations, we're swamped with information that we can'’t make sense of.

Becoming a Better Sports Coach
Author: Andreas Carlsson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000425118
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Research on coaching education and development highlights, repeatedly, the difficulties of traditional coaching education to impact coaching practice. Practice seems to be disconnected from scientific theory with few coaches accessing the scientific literature as it too often is presented in dry, academic tones. This volume sets out to provide an integration of theory and everyday practice that to date has not yet been published in the field of coaching science in a text easily used by sports coaches. In order to bridge this theory to practice gap, Becoming a Better Sports Coach: Development through Theory Application presents theory and science connected to practice in a way that makes it possible for coaches to test, evaluate and improve upon their existing coaching practice. This hands-on approach sets out to improve coaches’ cognition and raising self-awareness as well as improve coaches' learning using specific tools for behavioural feedback and reflection. Improving on self-reflective skills and eliciting feedback on the coach’s own behaviour is how coaching practice is improved. What coaching practice includes and what is laid out for coaches in this new text is motivational climate, coaching behaviours, pedagogy, feedback, coach–athlete relationship, each in one chapter. Reflection and behavioural feedback are applied to each of these areas.
