Care of Children Exposed to the Traumatic Effects of Disaster by Jon A. Shaw,Zelde Espinel,James M. Shultz Pdf

Care of Children Exposed to the Traumatic Effects of Disaster addresses the effects of disaster on children and their families, and explores the various resources that mental health practitioners and others who routinely interact with children, such as teachers, first responders, health care professionals, child care providers, child welfare professionals, and faith-based community members, can use to help them in their hour of need. The three co-authors have had extensive, and intensive, experience working with disaster victims and preparing both professionals and laypeople to intervene effectively in extreme events. Those on the front lines will find the book's practical and insightful observations, techniques, and strategies indispensible. Specifically, the book Explains not only how to provide basic support services and brief interventions but how to recognize children in distress, to actively support positive coping skills, to monitor children's well-being in the aftermath of disaster and to identify those who need more intensive evaluation and intervention. Encompasses a broad range of disasters, from the "natural" (such as earthquakes, tsunamis, tornadoes, and hurricanes) to the human generated (such as wars, civil strife, ethnic conflict, and acts of terrorism). Provides a timeline of psychological responses to disaster, with its impact phase and cascade of secondary adversities in the aftermath of disaster, which establishes helpful benchmarks to those providing support. Includes numerous tables and figures that convey complex information in an intuitive, easy-to-understand way. Care of Children Exposed to the Traumatic Effects of Disaster emphasizes the critical importance of effective therapeutic intervention -- which restores function, enhances recovery, and creates a safe and secure environment -- and explains how to mobilize family and social supports to achieve that goal.

The Global Conspiracy Exposed by The Whistleblower Pdf

America is no longer a "government by the people and for the people." According to information retrieved from the "Council on Foreign Relations" website, "in 1921 a group of diplomats, financers, generals, and lawyers concluded that Americans needed to be better prepared for significant responsibilities and decision making in world affairs, with this in mind they founded the 'Council on Foreign Relations.'" In other words, a group of elites created a government independent of our elected government. Diplomats, financers, generals, and lawyers created their own government in 1921 which continues to operate and circumvent our elected government to this very day. Readers will learn from this book that the Council on Foreign Relations, the Establishment, the Deep State, and the Shadow Government are all one and the same. Their goal is a corporate controlled one world government, and it appears as if the majority of our representatives are serving them. Many Americans are just recently becoming aware of and thus concerned with the establishments GREEN NEW DEAL and are totally unaware that it is already "the law of the land" via Executive Order No. 12852. In 1993 President Bill Clinton DAMNED the United States with the creation of the "President's Council on Sustainable Development" which is the original title for the GREEN NEW DEAL.

Clinical Trial Methodology by Karl E. Peace,Ding-Geng (Din) Chen Pdf

Now viewed as its own scientific discipline, clinical trial methodology encompasses the methods required for the protection of participants in a clinical trial and the methods necessary to provide a valid inference about the objective of the trial. Drawing from the authors’ courses on the subject as well as the first author’s more than 30 years working in the pharmaceutical industry, Clinical Trial Methodology emphasizes the importance of statistical thinking in clinical research and presents the methodology as a key component of clinical research. From ethical issues and sample size considerations to adaptive design procedures and statistical analysis, the book first covers the methodology that spans every clinical trial regardless of the area of application. Crucial to the generic drug industry, bioequivalence clinical trials are then discussed. The authors describe a parallel bioequivalence clinical trial of six formulations incorporating group sequential procedures that permit sample size re-estimation. The final chapters incorporate real-world case studies of clinical trials from the authors’ own experiences. These examples include a landmark Phase III clinical trial involving the treatment of duodenal ulcers and Phase III clinical trials that contributed to the first drug approved for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Aided by the U.S. FDA, the U.S. National Institutes of Health, the pharmaceutical industry, and academia, the area of clinical trial methodology has evolved over the last six decades into a scientific discipline. This guide explores the processes essential for developing and conducting a quality clinical trial protocol and providing quality data collection, biostatistical analyses, and a clinical study report, all while maintaining the highest standards of ethics and excellence.

Working with Trauma-Exposed Children and Adolescents by Joanna Pozzulo,Craig Bennell Pdf

Far too often, children and youth experience trauma, from rare events such as mass shootings, terrorism attacks, and school lockdowns, to very common occurrences such as bullying, exposure to drugs and alcohol, or various mental health issues. They can experience these events both directly and indirectly (from surfing the internet, watching television, or through their friends). Our children spend a large portion of their day at school interacting with other students, teachers, and school personnel, where these topics are raised and discussed. This edited volume addresses how our teachers and school personnel can help students deal with these potentially traumatic events to reach the most positive possible outcomes. This collection brings together leading experts, including academics and professionals working in the field, to provide the most current evidence-based practices on how to help students who may have experienced or witnessed trauma. It presents research and advice on how to respond to traumatic events regarding bullying; drugs and alcohol; sexual abuse; mental health; lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) safety; stranger danger; childhood disruptive behaviors; school shootings and lockdowns; and terrorism. It also includes a chapter focused on how to implement a school safety program. Schools cannot deal with these issues alone; effective strategies must engage family members and the broader community. Hence, the collection includes a chapter on how schools can partner with families and the communities they reside in to bring about positive change. All this work pays close attention to cultural and religious sensitivity, socio-economic variabilities, diversity issues, and developmental stages.

The Psyche Exposed by Thomas Nehrer Pdf

The Psyche Exposed expands on The Essence of Reality, looking farther and deeper into aspects of life from Four Angles. Perspectives stem from Tom’s standpoint of "Clear Awareness" – seeing life without distorting beliefs – initiated by a mystic experience, expanded through an extensive inner journey: Angle One – How Life Works: piercing insights into Reality’s flow, exposing distortions of awareness by standard beliefs and cultural fallacy. Angle Two – Your Journey: extensive, detailed illustration of large-scale structures of the psyche, showing how each individual projects personal creative power out to real and imagined forces and sources. Tom reveals explicitly how each individual creates patterns in life – and how they must be changed by revising inner roots. Angle Three – Your Path: three critical stumbling blocks on the journey toward Clear Awareness. Angle Four – Past Teaching: in-depth review of western thinking – how we each learn to see the world and ourselves as we were taught. Powerful insights expose fallacy in religion, archaic elements to traditional notions of causality and blatant shortcomings in science. Tom reviews the evolution of western thinking by exploring contributions of great thinkers and visionaries over the ages – what they contributed and WHERE THEY WERE WRONG.
