Exponering har en särställning bland psykologiska behandlingsmetoder. Ingen annan metod har ett så brett stöd inom så många problemområden. Trots det hamnar exponering ofta i bakgrunden i beskrivningen av behandlingar och i den kliniska vardagen.Författaren lyfter fram exponeringens centrala roll i psykologisk behandling och hur förankringen i inlärningspsykologi kan användas för att förstå hur ångest och rädsla fungerar. Boken innehåller dessutom kliniska kapitel där flera aspekter av exponering illustreras inom olika problemområden.Exponering som psykologisk behandlingsmetod riktar sig till studenter inom psykologi och psykoterapi. Den vänder sig också till redan yrkesverksamma inom dessa områden samt till alla som har ett intresse av att förstå ångestrelaterade problem och hur den psykologiska behandling som kallas exponering fungerar.

The first model of accelerated psychodynamic therapy to make the theoretical why as important as the formula for how, Fosha's original technique for catalyzing change mandates explicit empathy and radical engagement by the therapist to elicit and harness the patient's own healing affects. Its wide-open window on contemporary relational and attachment theory ushers in a safe, emotionally intense, experience-based pathway for processing previously unbearable feelings. This is a rich fusion of intellectual rigor, clinical passion, and practical moment-by-moment interventions.

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“One of the most important books I’ve ever read—an indispensable guide to thinking clearly about the world.” – Bill Gates“Hans Rosling tells the story of ‘the secret silent miracle of human progress’ as only he can. But Factfulness does much more than that. It also explains why progress is so often secret and silent and teaches readers how to see it clearly.” —Melinda Gates"Factfulness by Hans Rosling, an outstanding international public health expert, is a hopeful book about the potential for human progress when we work off facts rather than our inherent biases." - Former U.S. President Barack ObamaFactfulness: The stress-reducing habit of only carrying opinions for which you have strong supporting facts. When asked simple questions about global trends—what percentage of the world’s population live in poverty; why the world’s population is increasing; how many girls finish school—we systematically get the answers wrong. So wrong that a chimpanzee choosing answers at random will consistently outguess teachers, journalists, Nobel laureates, and investment bankers.In Factfulness, Professor of International Health and global TED phenomenon Hans Rosling, together with his two long-time collaborators, Anna and Ola, offers a radical new explanation of why this happens. They reveal the ten instincts that distort our perspective—from our tendency to divide the world into two camps (usually some version of us and them) to the way we consume media (where fear rules) to how we perceive progress (believing that most things are getting worse). Our problem is that we don’t know what we don’t know, and even our guesses are informed by unconscious and predictable biases.It turns out that the world, for all its imperfections, is in a much better state than we might think. That doesn’t mean there aren’t real concerns. But when we worry about everything all the time instead of embracing a worldview based on facts, we can lose our ability to focus on the things that threaten us most. Inspiring and revelatory, filled with lively anecdotes and moving stories, Factfulness is an urgent and essential book that will change the way you see the world and empower you to respond to the crises and opportunities of the future. ---“This book is my last battle in my life-long mission to fight devastating ignorance…Previously I armed myself with huge data sets, eye-opening software, an energetic learning style and a Swedish bayonet for sword-swallowing. It wasn’t enough. But I hope this book will be.” Hans Rosling, February 2017.

This forward-thinking book explores the impact of psychological trauma on the brain's sensory pathways and demonstrates the crucial role sensory-based interventions can play in recovery. Ruth A. Lanius and associates interweave neurobiological research with evocative case examples and narratives from survivors. The book shines a spotlight on the brain–body disconnect that is part of the lived experience of trauma, and traces what happens in all eight sensory systems when an individual is under threat. Featuring "Bridging to Practice" sections in each chapter, the book reveals how working with sensory pathways can engage the whole brain, promote neuroplasticity, and optimize the effectiveness of standard psychotherapies. Illustrations include eight pages in full color.

Denna bok publicerades första gången på engelska 1965 och var den första heltäckande beskrivningen av psykosyntes. Redan 1926 lade den då unga psykoanalytikern Roberto Assagioli den teoretiska grunden för psykosyntes och när denna bok publicerades hade han ett långt yrkesliv som psykiater bakom sig. Psykosyntes är inte bara en av de äldsta terapiformerna utan även en livs- och människosyn med relevans långt utanför terapeutiskt arbete. Bland de aspekter som är mer unika för psykosyntesen kan nämnas synen på andlighet. Assagioli ser människans natur som något betydligt större och djupare än den personlighet som vi normalt identifierar oss med, och menar att höjdpunktsupplevelser, intuition, inspiration och tillstånd av mystisk medvetenhet ger en glimt av detta. Psykosyntesen ingår därmed i det fält som idag benämns transpersonell psykologi. Mycket av innehållet i Psykosyntes var före sin tid. Läsaren kan idag se likheter med exempelvis humanistisk och existentiell psykologi, mindfulness, KBT-formen compassionfokuserad terapi och Internal Family Systems Therapy. Denna bok är än idag omistlig läsning för alla som professionellt eller privat har ett mer djupgående intresse för psykosyntes.

How does emotion arise in everyday settings? How can it be studied in the real world?In this book, authors Jonathan Potter and Alexa Hepburn offer their distinctive approach to the study of emotion. Emotionography explores emotion not through scales, experiments, or interviews, but as it actually occurs in natural interactions. Drawing on discursive psychology and conversation analysis, the authors' detailed analytic toolkit for representing talk, timing, and conduct makes visible how emotion is displayed, oriented to, and managed moment by moment. Step-by-step case examples show how crying and upset, laughter, and anger can be understood from an emotionographic perspective.Emotion is live, consequential, and interactional, and it can be studied with a level of accuracy that also has practical bite. Emotionography shows how the ways people display and describe feelings shape what others do next, including how they respond, align, resist, comfort, escalate, or redirect. That matters in everyday life, and it matters in high-stakes settings such as helplines, emergency calls, healthcare, and counselling. Emotionography offers practitioners a way to refine how they respond in real time, and offers researchers a rigorous analytic alternative to treating emotion as a private inner state.

Traditional clinical assessment tools are comprehensively explored and unpacked to enable the clinician to have full confidence in aligning traditional criteria to the Autistic person's subjective experiences.Full of additional resources like language guidelines and an exploration of the common intersections between Autistic experience and the effects of trauma, mental health and more, this book supplies a breadth of knowledge on key areas that affect Autistic adults in everyday life.The mixed team of neurotypical and neurodivergent authors describe lived experience of Autistic adults, a how-to for conducting Neuro-Affirmative assessments and post-assessment support, alongside reflections from practice. This book also has a directory of further resources including downloadable forms that you can use to prepare for your own assessments and a downloadable deep dive into Autistic perception. This guide will also support professionals through every step of the assessment process.

Unlike mathematics, statistics deals with real-world data and involves a higher degree of subjectivity due to the role of interpretation. Interpretation is shaped by context as well as the knowledge, preferences, assumptions and preconceptions of the interpreter, leading to a variety of interpretations of concepts as well as results. Philosophies, Puzzles and Paradoxes: A Statistician’s Search for Truth thoroughly examines the distinct philosophical approaches to statistics – Bayesian, frequentist and likelihood – arising from different interpretations of probability and uncertainty. These differences are highlighted through numerous puzzles and paradoxes and illuminated by extensive discussions of the background philosophy of science.Features:Exploration of the philosophy of knowledge and truth and how they relate to deductive and inductive reasoning, and ultimately scientific and statistical thinkingDiscussion of the philosophical theories of probability that are wider than the standard Bayesian and frequentist viewsExposition and examination of Savage’s axioms as the basis of subjective probability and Bayesian statisticsExplanation of likelihood and likelihood-based inference, including the controversy surrounding the likelihood principleDiscussion of fiducial probability and its evolution to confidence procedureIntroduction of extended and hierarchical likelihood for random parameters, with the recognition of confidence as extended likelihood, leading to epistemic confidence as an objective measure of uncertainty for single eventsDetailed analyses and new variations of classic paradoxes, such as the Monty Hall puzzle, the paradox of the ravens, the exchange paradox, and moreSubstantive yet non-technical, catering to readers with only introductory exposure to the theory of probability and statisticsThis book primarily targets statisticians in general, including both undergraduate and graduate students, as well as researchers interested in the philosophical basis of probability and statistics. It is also suitable for philosophers of science and general readers intrigued by puzzles and paradoxes.
