Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of our interactions with others occur within the framework of recurring social situations, and the language choices we make are intimately tied to situational features. Although the interdependence between language and social situations has been well recognized at least since G. H. Mead developed his symbolic interactionist theory, psychologists have been reluctant to devote much interest to this domain until recently. Yet it is arguable that a detailed understanding of the subtle links between situational features and language use must lie at the heart of any genuinely social psychology. This volume contains original contributions from psychologists, linguists and philosophers from the United States, Canada, Europe, Israel, and Australia who share an interest in the social-psychological aspects of language. Their work represents one of the first concentrated attempts to chart the possibilities of this exciting field. It is perhaps in order to say a few words about the origins of this book. The need for a volume integrating research on language and social situations first emerged during the 2nd International Conference of Language and Social Psychology at Bristol University in 1983, at which I was convening a symposium with a similar title at the request of the organizers, Peter Robinson and Howard Giles. When they first approached me with this idea in 1982, I gladly accepted, since my own research on cognitive representations of social episodes seemed eminently relevant to a symposium on language and social situations.

Book excerpt: "Cognitive behavioral techniques are those which help a student to learn the thinking behind expected behaviors. Social Stories (developed by Carol Gray) are one type of cognitive behavioral technique for teaching students how to cope in a specific context or with specific people. Social Behavior Mapping is another complimentary method, which helps students to understand how our behaviors (expected and unexpected) impact how people feel, which then impacts how they treat us, which impacts how we feel about ourselves. Social Behavior Maps demonstrate to students how we all impact each other emotionally and behaviorally. This technique is not a panacea, but instead helps to demystify the complexity of social thought and related behaviors. It is being embraced in classrooms all over the United States. On this DVD, the evolution of social behavior mapping is explained along with step-by-step instructions on how to use this valuable treatment strategy. This DVD corresponds with a book called Social Behavior Mapping, also by Michelle Garcia Winner."--Container.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive and thought-provoking exploration of the nature of machine understanding, its evaluation, and its implications. The book proposes a new framework, the Multifaceted Understanding Test Tool (MUTT), for assessing machine understanding across multiple dimensions, from language comprehension and logical reasoning to social intelligence and metacognition. Through a combination of philosophical analysis, technical exposition, and narrative thought experiments, the book delves into the frontiers of machine understanding, raising fundamental questions about the cognitive mechanisms and representations that enable genuine understanding in both human and machine minds. By probing the boundaries of artificial comprehension, the book aims to advance our theoretical grasp on the elusive notion of understanding and inform responsible development and deployment of AI technologies. In an era where Artificial Intelligence systems are becoming integral to our daily lives, a pressing question arises: Do these machines truly understand what they are doing, or are they merely sophisticated pattern matchers? "Understanding Machine Understanding" delves into this profound inquiry, exploring the depths of machine cognition and the essence of comprehension. Join Ken Clements and Claude 3 Opus on an intellectual journey that challenges conventional benchmarks like the Turing Test and introduces the innovative Multifaceted Understanding Test Tool (MUTT). This groundbreaking framework assesses AI's capabilities across language, reasoning, perception, and social intelligence, aiming to distinguish genuine understanding from mere imitation. Through philosophical analysis, technical exposition, and engaging narratives, this book invites readers to explore the frontiers of AI comprehension. Whether you're an AI researcher, philosopher, or curious observer, "Understanding Machine Understanding" offers a thought-provoking guide to the future of human-machine collaboration. Discover what it truly means for a machine to understand--and the implications for our shared future.

Download or read book Multilingual Text Comprehension written by Ute Schönpflug and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-16 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until today, research on monolingual text processing has offered a broad spectrum of results and theoretical explanations of how texts are processed. This book extends the current trend to cover only reading comprehension by considering extensively listening comprehension. Comprehensive presentations of research on children’s listening comprehension allow for a broader developmental perspective reaching preschool years. Although text comprehension is the essence of learning in educational settings, and children are confronted continuously with the challenge of getting information from texts, comprehensive publications on children’s text comprehension are scarce. The author posits that a comprehensive review of children’s comprehension processes has to analyze the development of fundamental cognitive processes involved in comprehension. Therefore, this book covers the impact of working and long-term memory, metamemory, inference making, and gist building on comprehension performance. The role of first and multilingual language proficiency and tasks on specific component processes of text comprehension are discussed. Research results concerning the function of multilingual proficiency and tasks in text comprehension are complemented by the author’s own published and unpublished research. Theoretical considerations lead to models attempting to cover aspects of multilingual text comprehension. The aim of the book is to present a state-of-the-art overview of the field to inform researchers and students of various disciplines and practitioners to improve their understanding of how to foster multilingual text comprehension.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young Hispanic children are the largest and fastest growing ethnic minority population in the United States, representing diverse racial, linguistic, and cultural backgrounds. Educational skills and achievement lag significantly for this population, creating an unacceptable achievement gap at the beginning of Kindergarten that grows even further by the end of 3rd grade. What can we learn from the empirical literature, theory, programs, and policies associated with language and early learning for young Hispanics? What are the home and school factors important to differences in early cognitive development and educational well-being? In this timely collaboration, a renowned researcher and a seasoned practitioner explore these questions with a focus on specific instructional interventions that are associated with reducing the achievement gap for young Hispanic children. Chapters emphasize educational practices, including teacher competencies, instructional strategies, curricular content, parent involvement, and related policy. The text includes teacher-friendly artifacts, instructional organizers, and lesson descriptions. “The authors provide the combination of theoretical orientation, background knowledge, and practical experience that is needed to do justice to this topic.” —Nancy Commins, University of Colorado Denver “Fills a void in current research and will spark vital policy discussions.” —Patricia Gándara, Co-Director of The Civil Rights Project, UCLA

Download or read book Understanding and Managing the Therapeutic Relationship written by Director of the School of Social Work and Director of the Doctor of Social Work Program Fred R McKenzie and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-06 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working with clients can be challenging, even for therapists with years of training, and working with difficult clients can be even more daunting. Understanding how the emotions of both therapist and client affect their relationship is as important as understanding theory and technique, and effective management of that relationship is crucial to successful treatment. Understanding and Managing the Therapeutic Relationship is the first book to integrate the theoretical, practical, and emotional aspects of the clinical relationship. Through a combination of classical and contemporary theory, comprehensive practical case applications, and empirically grounded knowledge from such varied sources as attachment theory and neuroscience, McKenzie has created a text that captures the emotional aspects of the therapeutic encounter in a way that is informative and useful to both the beginning clinician and the experienced therapist. This book works well in both advanced and introductory courses in social work theory and practice, counseling psychology practice, clinical psychology practice, and human services practice. It also proves a useful reference for doctoral level classes.
