The approach is called neuropolitics and uses brain science to understand our politics. It applies the insights of neurology to explain why we take part in protests, vote for particular parties and even why we lie about our true feelings in opinion polls, potentially skewing the results to give the public a false impression of who is going to win.

Mar 27th 2024, 14:22

Psychological Assessment, Vol 36(3), Mar 2024, 192-199; doi:10.1037/pas0001298
The factor structure, reliability, and concurrent validity of the Distress Tolerance Scale were evaluated in a large outpatient sample (N = 775). Prior research demonstrates mixed findings regarding the most appropriate factor structure, finding evidence for the presence of four subfactors as well as a potential second-order (hierarchical) General Distress Tolerance factor. Competing factor structures were compared using confirmatory factor analyses. A second-order hierarchical model with correlated residuals fit the data well, though results suggested poor factor discrimination. A bifactor hierarchical model also demonstrated acceptable fit. However, all subfactors except for Regulation demonstrated small or nonsignificant loadings and/or variances. The model was respecified with all items loading onto a General Distress Tolerance factor and three items loading onto the Regulation factor, which also demonstrated acceptable fit. In support of its concurrent validity, General Distress Tolerance was more strongly associated with neuroticism and a measure of difficulties with emotion regulation than with symptoms of anxiety and depression. The present study extends the literature by demonstrating support for a hierarchical bifactor structure and the favorable psychometric properties of the Distress Tolerance Scale in a large clinical sample.

Mar 27th 2024, 14:06

International Social Work, Ahead of Print. This article draws on a series of international research-focused webinars with social workers in 2022. They were designed to examine the rethinking of professional values during the pandemic in the context of other global crises, particularly the climate emergency. Participants readily shared ethical issues relating to self-care, digital working and reduced bureaucracy during the pandemic and implications for future practice. The need for holistic, community-based approaches integrating social, health and economic aspects of people’s lives arose, and the importance of seeing humans as part of the natural world (eco-social approaches). Awareness of newer post-anthropocentric and posthuman philosophies was less evident.

Mar 27th 2024, 10:58

Journal of Planning Education and Research, Ahead of Print. Performance-based planning (PBP) is an approach to regulatory planning that aims to achieve strategic objectives without mandating how those objectives are achieved. After more than twenty years of use in Australia, there has been little consideration of planners’ views of PBP. We survey planners about PBP and find that while there is in-principal support, considerable challenges are involved in successful implementation. Our findings highlight the conflicted and politicized landscape in which planners operate and indicate that the specific mechanisms used to deliver planning outcomes are perhaps less important than matters of trust, professionalism, and deliberative processes of plan development.

Meanwhile, Starbucks’ CEO was on Hillary Clinton’s list to be Labor Secretary if she won the white house in 2016. That tells you all you need to know about HRC – eager to nominate a labor nemesis to run the department supposedly dedicated to labor’s welfare – namely, that she’s as anti-union as the GOP. I mean, in what universe is Starbucks billionaire Howard Schultz considered any better for your average worker than that GOP darling, labor secretary and wife of Mitch “Democracy’s Gravedigger” McConnell, Elaine Chao? They both are lousy choices to to head an agency entrusted with labor’s well-being and prove that many Dems along with the entire GOP learned a core lesson from Ronald “Fire the Air Traffic Controllers” Reagan: always put the fox in charge of the chicken coop.

Mar 27th 2024, 06:58

Psychological Trauma: Theory, Research, Practice, and Policy, Vol 16(3), Mar 2024, 363-373; doi:10.1037/tra0001236
Objective: Transmitting trauma narratives is intergenerational by nature. Few studies have taken a qualitative approach to analyzing the most pervasive trauma of the United States: the chattel slavery of Black people. Examining the lived experiences of the formerly enslaved, through their childhood and adult narrative memories of personal and second-hand interactions with White authority figures, is critical to the recognition of today’s ongoing impact of policing, generational trauma, and mental health in the African American community. Method: Using interviews archived in the Library of Congress from women (N = 19) who were identified as being members of the last living generation of formerly enslaved African Americans, researchers used a feminist-forward grounded theory methodology to understand the following: (a) What are the historical relationships between African Americans and White authority figures? (b) What are the memories associated with the interactions between African Americans and White authority figures? (c) How did these interaction processes come to be? and (d) How did these memories get passed on? Results: The analysis of childhood memories and interactions between enslavers and African Americans close to home (i.e., on the plantation) produced six themes: (a) enmeshment with enslaver, (b) enslaver as good, (c) caretaking by enslaver, (d) enslaver control, (e) violent control by policing figures, and (f) following orders. Theoretical coding led to the formation of a full model of the function of power within the herstorical policing of African Americans close to home. Conclusions: The themes uncovered highlight the potentially traumatic violence and control that characterized the environment in which enslaved children lived and the systems through which White power was maintained. The herstorical analysis and results confirm the ways police violence has sought to control and harm African Americans for over 400 years and underscores the role that police violence has played in the perpetuation of intergenerational trauma and the maintenance of White power.

Mar 27th 2024, 06:56

Journal of Social Work, Ahead of Print. SummaryResults of our previous research indicated that older adults believe that there’s a lack of sufficient social support from informal sources available to them in difficult situations they face. In follow-up research, we found that older adults defined limitation in their self-sufficiency in daily activities to be the most significant difficult situation for them. This paper disseminates the results of the research seeking to answer the research question: According to older adults, can family be a source of social support in a difficult situation of limitation of self-sufficiency in daily activities? Social support theory is the used theoretical basis. Using the method of qualitative content analysis we analysed 23 semi-structured interviews with older adults.FindingsWe found that if two conditions, that is, geographic proximity to individual family members and the quality of relationships with family members, are ensured, family can function as one of the informal sources of social support according to older adults. In case that older adults prefer a formal source of social support, they consider their family as a source of social support only in an extreme situation of limited self-sufficiency.ApplicationsThis study provides social workers with a better understanding of the difficult situations of older adults and what kind of social support older adults prefer. This study also provides an argumentation about the importance of gerontological social work.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/journal-article-abstracts/pap0000489/) Psychoanalytically informed care and behavioral medicine: Consideration and recommendations for evidence-based practice in institutions.
Mar 27th 2024, 05:32

Psychoanalytic Psychology, Vol 41(1), Jan 2024, 1-7; doi:10.1037/pap0000489
Behavioral medicine, including the common schools of behavioral psychotherapy, typically receive a high degree of support from institutions, such as hospitals. This is in part due to the common misunderstanding that equates evidence-based practice (EBP) in psychology with empirically supported treatments (ESTs). This confusion of terms not only prioritizes biobehavioral treatment models but also undercuts much of the knowledge generated in practice-based research that better reflects actual clinical experience. From a Freudian–Lacanian psychoanalytic perspective, the methods of intervention in behavioral medicine typically align with treatment by suggestion, which positions the clinician as an educator. In contrast, psychoanalytically informed care offers a qualitatively different method of intervention focused on eliciting rather than delivering knowledge. Because behavioral medicine does not account for unconscious motivations for symptom retention, this article argues that institutions ought to retain clinicians who can provide psychoanalytically informed care as a second-line treatment if common methods of behavioral medicine do not show effectiveness with a given patient. In addition to the clinical benefits for patients, this article suggests there may be economic benefits for the institution as well, as patients may respond to a second-line treatment and require less care utilization.

Mar 27th 2024, 04:56

Human Relations, Ahead of Print. Collaborative organising is known to burn like a rocket: it thrives on intense passion, relationality and creativity but quickly falls into pieces. This article explores the underestimated role of events and their affective atmospheres to sustain collaborative work. Drawing insights from two ethnographic field studies within an open-source software community and a network of impact entrepreneurs, we introduce the notion of ‘polyrhythmic affectivity’ at the core of polycentric governance. It encapsulates how frictional reverberances between three atmospherically experienced affective intensities – togetherness, dissonance and mutuality – are able to maintain emergent yet enduring order. We argue that the collective motivational force of collaborative organising, can be stabilised through a process of ‘affective commoning’ to sustain collaborative atmospheres as shared creative resources.

Mar 27th 2024, 02:59

International Social Work, Ahead of Print. The adoption of Ukrainian children, by US citizens, is examined as the Ukrainian government ceases adoptions of children during the chaos of war. Intercountry adoption dynamics are presented with data from 2021, prior to the conflict in 2022. Then, the situation regarding child rights and the official Ukrainian government position are considered. Implications for guardianship and foster care of unaccompanied refugee minors are presented along with other critical risks to Ukrainian children living in another country. Implications for social work practice are concluded and child rights advocacy is encouraged as a macro intervention.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/journal-article-abstracts/tra0001627/) An investigation of the associations between trauma exposure, racial stereotypes, and racist beliefs.
Mar 27th 2024, 02:58

Psychological Trauma: Theory, Research, Practice, and Policy, Vol 16(3), Mar 2024, 374-381; doi:10.1037/tra0001627
Objective: Given the concerning rise in hate crimes in recent years, it is critical to better understand factors associated with racist beliefs. As suggested by terror management theory (TMT), trauma exposure and posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) may activate existential distress and anxiety, which may strengthen worldviews, including prejudiced beliefs (Greenberg & Kosloff, 2008; Weise et al., 2012). Although PTSS include negative alterations in beliefs about other people and the world, the connection between trauma and racist beliefs has not been investigated. There may also be key differences in terms of types of trauma exposure, such as interpersonal and noninterpersonal trauma, and racial beliefs. Method: The present study aimed to determine: (a) whether cumulative trauma exposure and PTSS are associated with endorsement of racist perceptions and stereotypes regarding Black people, and (b) if interpersonal trauma is more strongly tied to prejudiced and stereotyped beliefs than noninterpersonal trauma among 277 White undergraduates (Mage = 23.33, SD = 6.11; 76.4% female). Results: Neither cumulative trauma nor PTSS were found to be related to elevated racist beliefs or positive or negative stereotypes. However, noninterpersonal trauma exposure was associated with stronger endorsement of racist beliefs and negative stereotypes (ηp² = .03, .01). Surprisingly, interpersonal trauma exposure corresponded with lower racist beliefs (ηp² = .02). Conclusions: Noninterpersonal trauma exposure may thus activate TMT and strengthen prejudiced ideology, whereas interpersonal traumatic experiences and PTSS may not. More research is needed to better understand how types of traumatic events may relate to the development of prejudiced beliefs. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)

Mar 27th 2024, 02:56

Human Relations, Ahead of Print. Prevailing socio-legal structures create a state of personhood limbo for undocumented workers, where broader society undermines various aspects of their personhood in a way that prevents them from fully representing and embracing all dimensions of their selves in and around the workplace. But how do undocumented workers cope with personhood limbo? Drawing on interviews with undocumented workers and civil society workers in Italy, we identify specific forms of what we call “personhood anchoring work” that undocumented workers engage in to claim aspects of personhood that are meaningful to them. Our theorization suggests that workers’ experiences of personhood are influenced not only by socio-legal structures, but also by their own agentic acts in response to external conditions, as well as their aspirations, past experiences, and future plans. A key finding of our study is that these practices do not aim to create or disrupt social orders, even in subtle or hidden forms of resistance. Instead, they enable undocumented workers to temporarily position themselves within the social order. In doing so, we also introduce a new way of conceptualizing the integration of undocumented workers that can account for the possibilities and limits of retaining rather than redefining personhood in the face of prevailing constraints.

Research on Social Work Practice, Ahead of Print. PurposeThis study examines the impact of “Change in Direction,” a counseling approach for long-term social assistance recipients in Switzerland.MethodThe results of the study are based on a randomized controlled trial (n intervention group = 31/32, n comparison group = 50/48). Outcome measures were obtained from a two-wave survey and administrative data.ResultsThe intervention increased clients’ mastery (= experience of competence, β = .46, p = .038) and vitality (= one aspect of well-being, β = .61, p = .008), reducing the gap with the general Swiss working age population by 35% and 54%, respectively. However, the intervention did not increase clients’ general life satisfaction or earnings, nor did it reduce health expenditures or cash transfer receipt.DiscussionFindings show that goal-oriented counseling can improve feelings of competence and well-being among long-term welfare recipients but that it cannot improve labor market outcomes and financial self-sufficiency.
