Abstract:
Introduction Anthony Burgess’ novel ‘Clockwork Orange’ identifies the topical debates surrounding the use of aversion therapy (or aversive conditioning) as an effective treatment for addictive behaviours. Widely popularised in literature as ‘Ludovico’s Technique’, Burgess attempts to credit the misunderstanding and dramatization of its effects when the main protagonist is released from a prison sentence after undergoing this treatment. Objectives We aimed to highlight the depictions of aversion therapy in modern popular literature. Methods A narrative review of the current literature concerning aversion therapy and Anthony Burgess’s novel ‘A Clockwork Orange’ was conducted. Emphasis on the misinterpretation of aversive therapies was noted. Results Since the introduction of pharmacological alternatives and additional forms of psychological therapies, there has been a decline in the use of aversion therapy in recent decades. However, it is still effective when conceding the conditioning process. Likewise, its predecessor’ visual imagery’ is believed to be a more acceptable and effective form. Conclusions The depiction of aversion therapy in literature and media has played a role in shaping societal views on aversive conditioning techniques and the degree to which they are deemed acceptable forms of treatment. The “Ludovico Technique” featured in the novel ‘A Clockwork Orange’ and its film adaptation is arguably the most salient depiction of aversion therapy in popular culture. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Abstract:
The sensitivity of an alcoholic's sensory systems (55) to alcohol therapy is a good indication of treatment efficacy in this disease. In this study, we compare pharmacotherapy (PHT) and acupuncture therapy (AP) on the sensitivity of visual (VL), acoustic (AC), olfactory (OL) and taste (TS) systems to alcohol irritants (AI). The results showed that PHT changed the threshold sensitivity of 55 to AI but did not cause aversion of SS to AI. In acupuncture treatment, results can be divided into four groups: Group 1, no aversion of AC was produced to AI; Group 2, no aversion of TS and OL were produced to AI; Group 3, no aversiori ofVL to AI; and group 4, no aversion was recorded to AI. Supposedly, one of the sensory of information, and other SS are subordinates. Therefore, before acupuncture treatment for alcoholism, to the leading sensory system of the patient.

Abstract:
Background Learning aversion symptoms have become increasingly common among college students, who may lose interest in their studies, lack motivation, and even experience avoidance and aversion to school life. These emotions and behaviors not only affect their academic performance but may also cause harm to their long-term development and mental health. As a psychotherapy that focuses on the present and cultivates self-awareness, and acceptance, mindfulness therapy has shown positive therapeutic effects on various mental health problems. Combining cross-cultural human-computer interaction and collaborative translation teaching may provide a novel approach to treating college students’ learning aversion.Subjects and MethodsThe study randomly divided 46 college students with learning aversion into experimental and control groups. The control group received routine treatment; The experimental group conducted cross-cultural human-computer interaction and collaborative translation teaching in combination with mindfulness therapy for treatment. The study used the self-made Academic Negative Emotion Scale to evaluate the academic aversion of college students.ResultsIn the measurement before the experiment, all students showed severe aversion to learning, but the difference between the two groups was not significant (P>0.05); After the experiment, the level of student aversion to learning in the experimental group was significantly improved and significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionsCross-cultural human-machine interaction collaborative translation teaching and mindfulness therapy can alleviate the degree of college students learning aversion and assist their regular learning and life.

Abstract:
Aversion therapy has reemerged as a treatment for self-injurious behavior (SIB) but remains unpopular, as it is perceived to be unethical. The purpose of this mixed-methods sequential explanatory study was to investigate the effectiveness of positive therapy and aversion therapy in the treatment of twins with SIB as well as to understand the lived experiences of their caretakers regarding treatment ethics. The frameworks used included classical and operant conditioning as well as utilitarian ethics theory. Quantitative research questions focused on changes in SIB, aggressive and prosocial behaviors with treatment, while the qualitative research question focused on the perceptions of caretakers regarding treatment. The quantitative component used a case study design and archived data from 2 U.S.-based treatment centers. The qualitative component included essay-type questionnaires for family members and caretakers regarding perceptions of the different therapies. The quantitative data that was obtained measured different behaviors that were not comparable. The twin in aversion therapy demonstrated aggressive behaviors that decreased with treatment, while the twin in positive therapy demonstrated positive behaviors that showed little to no change. Caretaker and family reports were consistent with the quantitative data, and family members considered aversion therapy ethical because they perceived it to be effective in treating SIBs. They also perceived it as ethically preferable to the use of large amounts of medication. Findings suggest that aversion therapy may be effective and ethical. Implications for positive social include potential continued research on aversion therapy to enhance treatment outcomes for individuals with SIB, and possible changes in public perceptions of aversion therapies.

Abstract:
The following study aims to understand the effects Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, has on individuals who have experienced discomfort through exposure to aversive stimuli. Experiencing discomfort is a natural part of human life. Each person has their own class of responses to respond to discomfort. A typical response may include avoiding an object, person, or situation that had made the person uncomfortable in the past. Batten, Follette, and Aban (2001) found that women who experienced childhood sexual abuse and scored high in experiential avoidance where more likely to engage in high risk sexual behaviors. Avoiding discomfort can have serious repercussions. ACT has been a proven therapy to treat anxiety, gambling, PTSD, eating disorders among other disorders. Previous studies show the effectiveness of ACT on treating discomfort (Cohrane, Barnes-Holmes, & Barnes-Holmes, 2008; Hayes, Bissett, Korn, Zettle, Rosenfarb, Cooper, & Grundt, 1999; Luciano, et al., 2010). This study extends the findings and further supports the utility of ACT to treat discomfort through a laboratory study. This study exposes participants to “disgusting” stimuli to evoke disgust and discomfort. A brief ACT session is administered to half the participants which is compared to a control task which includes a distraction/avoidance task. Findings from this study suggest the utility of ACT to increase tolerance to discomfort.

Full text
Abstract:
Callous and unemotional (CU) traits in children with conduct problems have been indicated as precursors to adult psychopathy. The analysis of the sensitivity to rewards and punishment in this population may be useful in the identification of effective behavior modification programs and particularly the delineation of ineffective punishment procedures. Scores on the Child Psychopathy Scale, Inventory of Callous and Unemotional Traits, Contingency Response Rating Scale and the Sensitivity to Reward Sensitivity to Punishment – Children Revised scale were used to evaluate 20 children, aged 7-13, recruited from FIU’s Center for Children and Families. The sample comprised 14 males and 6 females displaying a range of psychopathic traits measured by the CPS, with scores from 9 to 46 (M = 28.45, SD = 10.73). Sensitivity to punishment was examined using a behavioral task in which children endured various amounts of either white noise (type I punishment) or time-out from positive reinforcement (type II punishment) in order to gain access to a demonstrated reinforcer. The sample was stratified on the basis of the magnitude of psychopathy scores, and sensitivity to rewards and punishment were evaluated using a Behavioral Activation / Behavioral Inhibition framework by examining task performance: the frequency and duration of punishment conditions selected, electrodermal activity (skin conductance response), and parent-reported measures of child sensitivity to reward and punishment. Results indicated that the magnitude of CU traits was directly proportional to hyposensitivity to punishment and hypersensitivity to reward. Children with elevated levels of CU traits elected to endure a greater frequency and duration type I punishment in order to maintain continued access to the reinforcer. Significant differences were not found between high- and low-psychopathy children in the selection of type II punishment. The findings indicate that although there may be a hyporeactivity to type I punishment in children with CU traits, the use of a type II punishment by the removal of a positive stimulus has demonstrated treatment efficacy. The difference in sensitivity to rewards and the types of effective punishment in children with CU traits may affect reinforcement based learning, leading to the ineffectiveness of traditional methods informing the development of social responses.

Abstract:
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterised by intrusive obsessions and compulsions. The contamination subtype of OCD, featuring obsessions about contamination and cleaning compulsions, is one of the most common presentations. Contamination aversion is often experienced in contamination OCD. Contamination aversion refers to the negative feeling and response evoked by a threat of contamination. It is influenced by a range of factors, including disgust, dysfunctional beliefs, magical thinking, information processing biases and emotion dysregulation. Recently, it has been proposed that this can be integrated into a two component model, whereby an affective component is driven by disgust and a cognitive component produces an appraisal based on various cognitive factors. Early studies suggest these components interact to process a threat, but they also differ in a range of areas, including the type of threat they predominantly process, the temporal stage of processing and the motivation of avoidance. However, much remains to be examined about the two components in terms of the responses produced, characteristics of processing and the effects of treatment. This thesis aims to examine responses to various contaminants in order to understand the two components of contamination aversion. The contaminants studied are: 1) direct contaminants, which are directly associated with disease, such as faeces; 2) indirect contaminants, which are threats indirectly associated with disease, such as money; and 3) harm contaminants, which are threats that have dangerous or harmful properties, such as asbestos. These contaminants are thought to be processed predominantly by either the affective or cognitive component, thus examining responses to these contaminants will provide information about how each component functions. These studies support the two component model of contamination. They provide information about similarities and differences between the two components and responses to treatment approaches. Theoretical and clinical implications are discussed.

Abstract:
Submitted in partial fulfillment in compliance with the requirements for the Masters Degree in Technology: Fine Art, Durban University of Technology. Durban. South Africa, 2014.
The aim of this study is to interrogate the validity of Historical film as a representation of the past and a source of historical knowledge, in the work of Richard Attenborough, Claude Lanzmann, Angus Gibson and Jo Mennel and my film practice, using Robert Rosenstone’s theories, the 6 Codes of Representation (Rosenstone, 1995a) and the 4 Modes of Invention (Rosenstone, 1995a) as a theoretical framework. The main research question is: How can Historical film preserve the historical integrity of a subject whilst entertaining the viewer? Three different film genres were analyzed using this theoretical framework. Films included the Historical Drama Gandhi (1982), the Historical Documentary Mandela (1996) and the Experimental Historical film Shoah (1985). This research interrogates the degrees to which history presented on film can be altered, without becoming an invalid representation of the past. Research outcomes have concluded that the Historical film will inevitably dramatize a subject in order to appeal to a larger audience. However, in making a Historical film, a filmmaker’s decision to stray from historical facts must be supported by a sufficient justification of any significant fabrication, and an explanation of how it benefits the historical subject. This study informed my practical component, consisting of a treatment and storyboard for what I term a hypothetical Historical Experimental film, exploring the Aversion Therapy. These therapies were practiced on SADF conscripts in order to ‘’ cure’ them of ‘illnesses’ such as homosexuality (Kaplan, 2001). It is my hope that this study and proposed film will encourage people to investigate and discuss the Aversion Therapies, creating an awareness of a subject that has had little exposure post 1994.

Abstract:
Malnutrition and neuro-disability are major public health problems in Africa. There is limited autism spectrum disorder (ASD) research in Kenya and families lack support aetiology is linked to witchcraft and sorcery. Research indicates an increase in ASD prevalence globally and in Africa. In Kenya, 2.2% (0.9 million people) live with some form of disability. Children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) suffer from neuro disabilities eliciting: altered sensory processing, restricted interests, and behavioural rigidity, allergies and aversions. Autism spectrum disorders have no cure, management is by use of interventions targeting autistic symptoms such as gastrointestinal disturbances, problem feeding behavior, linguistic development, non-verbal cognitive development, and motor development. The overall objective of this review was: to identify dietary and nutritional interventions available for the management of ASD symptoms in children and adolescents – Kenya. The study employed systematic review as the study design. The study included articles from Cochrane Library, PubMed, PMC, Google scholar, and Free Full databases. These were searched to identify studies published between September 2011 and September 2021. Eighteen articles were included: 12 randomized case-control trials, 3 open-label trials, one 2×2 factorial study, and 2 cross-over trials. The following dietary and nutritional interventions were evaluated: gluten and casein-free diet; ketogenic diets; probiotic supplements; specific carbohydrate diets; polyunsaturated fatty acids; vitamin and mineral supplantation (A, B6, B12, D, magnesium, folic acid); and alternative diets. Results from study indicate that vitamin and mineral supplementation was the most used intervention in management of ASD symptoms. This review established that there are limited or no studies on dietary and nutritional interventions in Kenya. Authors reported improvements in ASD symptoms in individuals receiving dietary and nutritional interventions such vitamin and mineral supplementation. The study findings will help policymakers and implementers to understand the consistency and precision and impact of these interventions. This will improve the safety and efficacy of interventions positively impacting the health and nutrition outcomes of children and adolescents with ASD. More research targeting ASD dietary and Nutritional Interventions is required in Kenya and other resource constrained settings. Keywords: autism spectrum disorder, nutritional intervention, diet therapy, child, adolescent, Kenya.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of scalp acupuncture for poststroke depression for the first time, and the results of this systematic review will be helpful for clinicians to use scalp acupuncture in the treatment of PSD. Condition being studied: Post-stroke depression (PSD) is one of the most common psychological sequelae of stroke, which is a state characterized by low mood and aversion to activity. It is one of the main obstacles in the process of stroke rehabilitation, which has a detrimental impact on functional recovery and quality of life and even increases mortality. Although the pathogenic factors of PSD are complex and diverse, it is now widely believed to involve complex interactions between neurobiological dysfunctions, psychosocial distress and biological factors. Despite increasing awareness and clinically based research on PSD, drugs to relieve and treat symptoms have made only limited gains. The use of antidepressants is accompanied by various unavoidable adverse effects, including headache, nausea, restlessness, and sexual dysfunction. A previous meta-analysis demonstrated that acupuncture can be safe and effective for the treatment of post-stroke depression. However, there is a lack of systematic reviews to evaluate the efficacy and safety of scalp acupuncture, which is a commonly used acupuncture modality in the treatment of PSD. Consequently, this study will assess the efficacy and safety of scalp acupuncture therapy for PSD compared to other treatments.

De Donder, Philippe, Marie-Louise Leroux, and François Salanié. Advantageous selection without moral hazard. CIRANO, May 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.54932/nqvt3458.

Full text
Abstract:
Advantageous (or propitious) selection occurs when an increase in the premium of an insurance contract induces high-cost agents to quit, thereby reducing the average cost among remaining buyers. Hemenway (1990) and many subsequent contributions motivate its advent by differences in risk-aversion among agents, implying different prevention efforts. We argue that it may also appear in the absence of moral hazard, when agents only differ in riskiness and not in (risk) preferences. We first show that profit-maximization implies that advantageous selection is more likely when markup rates and the elasticity of insurance demand are high. We then move to standard settings satisfying the single-crossing property and show that advantageous selection may occur when several contracts are offered, when agents also face a non-insurable background risk, or when agents face two mutually exclusive risks that are bundled together in a single insurance contract. We exemplify this last case with life care annuities, a product which bundles long-term care insurance and annuities, and we use Canadian survey data to provide an example of a contract facing advantageous selection.
