Book Synopsis Social Work At The Millennium by : Robert Morris
Download or read book Social Work At The Millennium written by Robert Morris and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-09-12 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the last century, social workers have attended to those in need and sought to improve the social and economic conditions of the disadvantaged. At the dawn of a new century the country's leading social work practitioners and educators have come together in one stellar volume to assess the successes and failures of the field in its first hundred years. They lay out the road social work must take to face the challenges ahead. Along with two chapters by the editors, June Gary Hopps and Robert Morris, Social Work at the Millennium includes ten chapters from an exceptionally strong group of contributors, offering a range of interpretations of the future of social work. By looking with a critical eye at the past century and at the present day, the authors come to varying conclusions that will stir debate within the field for years to come. But all agree that social workers need a place at the policy drafting tables as well as in the human services triage rooms, and that much work needs to be done to ensure that this happens. Social Work at the Millennium presents the top voices of the social work field as they begin to craft the future of the profession, and issues a challenge to social workers, students, scholars, and policy makers to continue the discussion to shape a better future for the profession and the people it serves.
Book Synopsis Psychology and Psychiatry Serials by : Dorothy Marie Persson
Download or read book Psychology and Psychiatry Serials written by Dorothy Marie Persson and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This valuable new bibliography fills a void in the reference literature of psychology and psychiatry by providing a guide to the major English-language periodicals in these fields. Designed to be a flexible collection development tool, this practical volume will facilitate librarians’decision making as they select and deselect serials according to the particular needs and interests of their patrons. Psychology and Psychiatry Serials consists of 305 titles, including some annuals, arranged alphabetically. The general topic areas include psychometrics, experimental psychology, developmental psychology, personality, physical and psychological disorders, treatment and prevention, educational psychology, applied psychology, and general psychology. The journals were selected from those indexed in such sources as Psychological Abstracts and Current Index to Journals in Education and were reviewed on the basis of subject relevance, importance within subject area, attention to current professional issues, level of scholarship, and inclusion in major indexing and abstracting tools. The citation for each publication consists of the current title, date of publication of first volume (under the current title), frequency of publication, publisher, ISSN, indexing and abstracting tools in which the publication is listed, and a brief annotation. Each entry also includes one or more “subject codes” that correspond to the 16 areas used for classification of Psychological Abstracts entries. An index following the entries lists titles by subject area and list of publishers’addresses is included to facilitate the request of sample issues and queries about the subscription process. Created by professional librarians with years of experience in these subject areas, Psychology and Psychiatry Serials has innumerable practical and theoretical applications for librarians: the bibliography can be used in the technical services fields where serials control, acquisitions, and cataloging demand greater precision in the description of published materials the entries for publication histories and publication frequency can furnish authoritative data for bibliographic descriptions the annotations and subject category codes will be useful starting points for subject analysis the convenience of the bibliography makes characteristics of serial literature studies relatively easy to do since it reduces the amount of work an investigator needs to do to gather primary data about serials in terms of evaluating indexing and abstracting services of core materials, the list has great potential for duplication and overlap studies with a core publication format, the list can be used to quickly compare index counts in psychology and behavioral sciences as a whole, and in particular subjects the list can also be used as a companion to existing lists, some of which are more comprehensive and exhaustive

This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the Proceedings of the Fourth High Point Hospital Symposium on Attention Deficit Disorder. This symposium was characterised by both current and retrospective reviews of several existing research programs in ADD, and focused on the very recent history of ADD, paralleling the thrust towards preeminence of the clinical neurosciences. The format of the Symposium was designed to link emerging trends in the area to their immediate historical background. Several young researchers were invited to give their status reports on their current research programs. Each of these individuals was also asked to nominate a mentor, who had exerted a career directing influence, to comment on the status report. Taken together, these presentations, along with the retrospective commentaries of the mentors will give the reader a comprehensive breakdown of the ADD field.

Book Synopsis Clinical Manual of Emergency Psychiatry, Second Edition by : Michelle B. Riba, M.D., M.S.
Download or read book Clinical Manual of Emergency Psychiatry, Second Edition written by Michelle B. Riba, M.D., M.S. and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2015-09-16 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Clinical Manual of Emergency Psychiatry is designed to help medical students, residents, and clinical faculty chart an appropriate course of treatment in a setting where an incorrect assessment can have life-or-death implications. Arranged by chief complaint rather than by psychiatric diagnosis, each chapter combines the fresh insights of an accomplished psychiatry trainee with the more seasoned viewpoint of a senior practitioner in the field, providing a richly integrated perspective on the challenges and rewards of caring for patients in the psychiatric emergency department. This newly revised edition presents current approaches to evaluation, treatment, and management of patients in crisis, including up-to-date guidelines on use of pharmacotherapy in the emergency setting; suicide risk assessment; evaluation of patients with abnormal mood, psychosis, acute anxiety, agitation, cognitive impairment, and/or substance-related emergencies; and care of children and adolescents. The editors have created an accessible text with many useful features: * A chapter devoted to effective strategies for teaching, mentoring, and supervision of trainees in the psychiatry emergency service.* Chapters focused on assessment of risk for violence in patients, determination of the need for seclusion or restraint, and navigation of the legal and ethical issues that arise in the emergency setting.* Clinical vignettes that contextualize the information provided, allowing readers to envision applicable clinical scenarios and thereby internalize important concepts more quickly* Constructive "take-home" points at the end of each chapter that summarize key information and caution against common clinical errors.* References and suggested readings to help readers pursue a deeper understanding of concepts and repair any gaps in knowledge. Emergency psychiatry is one of the most stressful and challenging areas of practice for the psychiatric clinician. The guidelines and strategies outlined in Clinical Manual of Emergency Psychiatry, Second Edition, will help psychiatric trainees and educators alike to make sense of the complex clinical situations they encounter and guide them to advance their skills as clinicians and educators.
Download or read book Peer Review written by David Shatz and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2004 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peer review is the process by which submissions to journals and presses are evaluated with regard to suitability for publication. Armed with the results of numerous empirical studies, critics have leveled a variety of harsh charges against peer review such as: reviewers and editors are biased toward authors from prestigious institutions, peer review is biased toward established ideas, and it does a poor job of detecting errors and fraud. While an immense literature has sprouted on peer review in the sciences and social sciences, Peer Review is the first book-length, wide-ranging study of peer review that utilizes methods and resources of contemporary philosophy. Its six chapters cover the following topics: the tension between peer review and the liberal notion that truth emerges when ideas proliferate in the marketplace of ideas; arguments for and against blind review of submissions; the alleged conservatism of peer review; the anomalous nature of book reviewing; the status of non-peer-reviewed publications, such as invited articles or Internet publications, in tenure and promotion cases; and the future of peer review in the age of the Internet. The author has also included several key readings about peer review.
Book Synopsis Randomized Clinical Trials of Nonpharmacological Treatments by : Isabelle Boutron
Download or read book Randomized Clinical Trials of Nonpharmacological Treatments written by Isabelle Boutron and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-19 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonpharmacological treatments include a wide variety of treatments such as surgery, technical procedures, implantable and non-implantable devices, rehabilitation, psychotherapy, and behavioral interventions. Unlike pharmacological treatments, these have no specific requirements for approval. Consequently, they can be widely proposed in clinical practice but may not have been adequately evaluated. This situation is an important barrier for the evaluation of the beneficial effects of these treatments and the conduct of clinical trials. Randomized Clinical Trials of Nonpharmacologic Treatments focuses on the methods for assessing nonpharmacological treatments, highlighting specific issues and trial design. Features: Chapters written by international experts in the field Highlights specific issues in assessing nonpharmacological treatments in trials including: how to overcome the difficulties of blinding patients, care providers, and outcome assessors the complexity of the intervention, the learning curve, and the clustering effect placebos that can be used issues of assessing harm and assessing the applicability of trials Presents a variety of trial designs for nonpharmacological treatments—including cluster randomized controlled trials, expertise-based trials, pragmatic trials, and nonrandomized trials. Provides several examples of the planning, conduct, analyses, and reporting of trials in different fields, including surgery, technical interventions, medical devices, rehabilitation, psychotherapy, and behavioral interventions. Providing practical examples that underline these issues and solutions, this book is one of the first to exclusively explore this topic, discussing various categories of treatments, from surgical procedures to psychotherapy.

Book Synopsis Research Design for Social Work and the Human Services by : Jeane W. Anastas
Download or read book Research Design for Social Work and the Human Services written by Jeane W. Anastas and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2000-01-28 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Design for Social Work and the Human Services integrates a range of research techniques into a single epistemological framework and presents a balanced approach to the teaching of research methods in the "helping professions." Jeane W. Anastas begins with a discussion of the different philosophical perspectives within which social research occurs and continues with problem formulation, research design, and methodological issues influencing data collection, analysis, and dissemination. She presents both fixed (quantitative) and flexible (qualitative) methods of research, granting legitimacy, value, utility, and relevance to both styles of inquiry. Utilizing complete case studies to illustrate different methodological approaches, Research Design for Social Work and the Human Services integrates material on women and people of color, and draws attention to the ways racism, heterosexism, sexism, and classism affect the conceptualization and conduct of research. Anastas not only exposes these biases but actively addresses the experiences, needs, and concerns of clients of both genders and different races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, cultures, and classes.
