Abstract:
By examining the literate practices of persons with aphasia, or language disability after stroke or other brain injury, this essay develops the concept of literate misfitting—the conflicts readers and writers encounter when their bodies and minds do not fit with the materials and expectations of literacy. I analyze how literate misfitting reveals both how persons with disabilities are often excluded from normative conceptions of literacy and how their experiences adapting and innovating in the face of literate misfits offer vital insights into the social and material aspects of literacy.

Abstract:
Predictability of dangerousness in association with mental disorders remains elusive, outside of a few relatively well-established risk factors for the prognostication of violence, such as male sex, the presence of a psychotic disorder, and comorbid substance abuse. In clinical practice, inquiry into the presence of aggressive or violent ideation, in the form of ideas of homicide or suicide, is part of a standard mental status examination. Nonetheless, fantasy life, when it concerns harm toward others, may not be as reliable an indicator of imminent danger as it may be in the case of self-harm. Five cases of young Italian men with Asperger syndrome and recurrent and extremely violent femicide fantasies are presented. While there is no direct correlation between autism spectrum conditions and violence, as other humans, persons with an autistic condition are capable of committing crimes, including homicide. All five had in common a number of characteristics and behaviors felt to be pathoplastic: All had been bullied, all had been romantically rejected, all were long-standing First Person Shooter (FPS) game players, and all were avid violent pornography consumers. The potential for an actual neurocognitive impact of violent video games, well documented in the literature, and its combination with personal life history and chronic habituation following long-standing violent pornography use is discussed in the context of social and emotional vulnerabilities. While aggressive fantasies cannot and should not be underestimated, in countries where duty to protect legislation does not exist, a clinical approach is imperative, as, incidentally, should be anywhere.

Abstract:
Despite the many benefits of club-organized sports participation for children, studies have shown that sports participation is lower among children from low-income families than among children from middle- or high-income families. Adopting a socioecological perspective, the main aim of our study was to identify and describe experiences of person–environment (PE) misfits in relation to parental facilitation of children’s sports participation. We conducted 24 interviews with parents from low-income families. PE misfits were found in multiple behaviors related to the facilitation of children’s sports participation: financing sports participation; planning and investing time; transporting children; acquiring, processing, and providing information; and arranging support. Across these PE misfits, influential attributes were found on the individual level (e.g., skills) as well as within the social, policy, physical, and information environment. In response to PE misfits experienced, parents deployed multiple strategies to reduce these PE misfits, aimed at enhancing either themselves (e.g., increasing financial capacities) or their environments (e.g., arranging social support). These results provide an insight into experienced PE misfits that took the form of multiple specific behaviors which parents found difficult while facilitating their children’s sports participation. Furthermore, the results provide insight into the environmental and individual attributes that were involved in these PE misfits, and into how parents modified themselves or their environments in order to make their environments more supportive. The study contributes to future research on individual and environmental influences on parental facilitation of their children’s sports participation, as well as on the development of multilevel interventions aimed at increasing sports participation among children from low-income families.

Abstract:
In this editorial chapter, I aim to summarize findings on person fit analysis in computerized adaptive testing (CAT) from prior research and discuss potential avenues for further research. In item response theory (IRT) applications, person fit quantifies fit of a response pattern to the model (Bradlow & Weiss, 2001, p. 86). Person misfit refers to unexpected response patterns by individuals. There are many potential reasons of misfit including special knowledge (Sinharay, 2016), cheating, guessing (Meijer, 1996), fatigue (Swearingen, 1998), warming up (Meijer, 1996), or faking (Ferrando & Anguiano-Carrasco, 2012). Evaluation of misfit is a significant step for addressing discrepancies within the measurement model. When IRT models are used, evidence of model fit which involves person fit analysis results should be reported (Standard 4.10; AERA, APA & NCME, 2014) as validity evidence to enhance score interpretations. Once misfitting items are identified, corrective steps such as item revision or removal can be implemented. For examinees who exhibit misfit, additional exploration can be undertaken to pinpoint behaviors that might necessitate adjustments to the test program or corrective interventions for particular examinees.

Abstract:
In the last four decades, ‘otaku’ and ‘hikikomori,’ namely popular culture enthusiasts and reclusive shut-ins, have been at the center of a heated debate in Japan concerning their social alienation. On the one hand, public opinion and mass media consider them individualistic nonconformists who selfishly disregard their interpersonal obligations, thus posing a threat to the cohesion of the nation. On the other hand, cultural critics, social scientists, and professional psychiatrists argue that their isolation may actually be the consequence of the current disgregation of the relational ties and of a consequent psychological state of constant anxiety and dejection. The article explores the complex ways the computer game Persona 5 goes against the view held by many Japanese in favour of the latter's explanation. To this end, the article applies the method of cultural studies on the portrayal of a specific character in the game, Sakura Futaba, as a case study. Ultimately, the article aims to demonstrate that Persona 5 constructs a revisionist representation of ‘otaku’ and ‘hikikomori’ on the base of a thorough knowledge of contemporary Japanese societal problems, a revaluation of the pop culture fan and the hermit's condition and abilities, and a newly defined vision of sociability.

Past researches on person-job fit have been focusing its effects on the turnover, and job performance. However, few studies discuss its effects on retention intention and subsequent negative effects on the organization. As such, the present study is designed to discover the boundary conditions when Demand-Ability (D-A) misfit and Need-Supply (N-S) misfit employees choose to stay and harm the organization. From the aspect of the ease of movement, we explore the joint moderating effects of organization embeddedness (OE) and performance-contingent reward (PCR) on the relationship between D-A misfit on retention intention and tardiness. Moreover, we explore the joint moderating effects of community embeddedness (CE) and performance-contingent reward on the relationship between N-S misfit on retention intention and work engagement from the view of need fulfillment. We collected data from 11 companies across various industries using a multisource, multiphase research design. The data are comprised of matched 327 leader-follower pairs. The result of hierarchical regression analysis shows that: when in high OE and low PCR, D-A misfit is positively with retention intention and tardiness; while when in high OE and high PCR, the relationship is negative. On the other hand, when in low CE and low PCR, N-S misfit is negatively related with retention intention and work engagement, while in high CE and high PCR, the negative relationship is attenuated. Theoretical and practical implications of our findings are also discussed.

Past studies have found that newcomers’ person-job fit (including needs-supplies fit and demands-abilities fit) can uniquely influence their work attitudes and performance. When newcomers misfit with their job in these two aspects, they are more likely to perform poorly and even leave the organization. Therefore, how to reduce the negative impacts caused by newcomers’ person-job misfit is the focus of this study. The present study applied a longitudinal research design to collect data from 206 newcomers in a Taiwanese High-tech company at three different time points, and investigated the predictive effects of newcomer person-job (P-J) misfit on actual turnover and job performance as well as the buffering effects of multiple person-environment perceptions (i.e., person-organization fit, person-group fit, person-supervisor fit, and person-mentor fit). The results of hierarchical regression analyses showed that newcomers’ perceived P-O fit and P-G fit weakened the positive relationship of N-S misfit and actual turnover. In addition, perceived P-M fit attenuated the negative relationship between D-A misfit and newcomer’s performance. It is surprising that perceived P-S fit strengthened the negative relationship between D-A misfit and newcomer’s performance. Based on the result of the study, the theoretical and managerial implications were discussed. Keywords: Newcomers, Person-job fit, Person-organization fit, Person-group fit, Person-supervisor fit, Person-mentor fit, Actual turnover, Job performance.

Abstract:
Chapter Nine focuses on Frank Miller, a major figure in contemporary American comics, and his comics 300, Holy Terror, The Dark Knight Returns, and Sin City. The one constant in Miller’s universe is the presence of hypermasculine, hyperviolent, white heroes who defend western civilization against its various enemies, both internal and external. Paradoxically, in Miller’s view the only way to salvage the supposedly rational and freedom-loving civilization of the West is for it to become more violent and irrational than those threatening it. Miller’s work can be linked to many currents in right-wing thought over the past three decades, including neoconservatism, libertarianism, and the alt-right, but the person whose ideology he is closest to is Donald Trump.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the concept of othering. Othering is the process through which a person or group is turned into somebody different from us, an “other” from whom it is possible to distance ourselves. It is at heart a relational process that occurs in social interaction, real and imagined, as a person or group defines itself in contrast with and in opposition to someone else. The most salient instances in which othering occurs are the ones in which a cultural distinction based on a power differential or struggle for power exists. However, examples taken from the nineteenth century, in which ordinary people negotiated the meanings of middle-class respectability, demonstrate that significant symbolic boundaries often were not sharply defined and often did not fall neatly along major cultural fault lines.

Abstract:
One of the more difficult aspects of middle-class respectability has been getting it right when it comes to displays of emotion—too little and a person seems stoical, indifferent, cold; too much and a person is likely to be accused of wearing their feelings on their sleeve, incapable of self-control, being dangerous, overzealous, a fanatic. Religion is a particularly interesting context in which to consider the display of emotion. This chapter examines how accusations of zealotry populated nineteenth- and early twentieth-century discussions of American religion. Zealotry was a contested idea that religious leaders, public officials, scholars, and the popular press discussed repeatedly. It was good, many commentators argued, for Americans to be zealous. But it was not good to be labeled a zealot. Zealots were led too much by their emotions. They were easily confused, frequently irrational, and sometimes dangerous.

Abstract:
Abstract How do death and Christmas make endings and beginnings? Death is a source of stories, by the living about the dead, and vice versa. Life is change, kairos moments interrupting chronos duration. In a place, Britain, and a time, Victorian, racked by religious and secular disputes, the uses of Time itself were reconsidered. The misfits between historic, archeological, legendary, national, utilitarian, familial, and personal time, and providential and resurrectionist time, are the foundation of Dickens’s discourses. Death itself may not be writeable, but the other side of life can be imagined and projected back to educate the living. Time affords reconstitution, of lives, of histories, of the Dombey household, Bleak House, and Miss Havisham’s garden. What narrator can we trust to tell these stories faithfully? How can we know what changes are beneficial? And what is change, but life itself? Wallace Stevens says “Death is the mother of beauty, mystical.”

Abstract:
Que font les rennes après Noël? is narrated in alternating paragraphs by a female second-person narrator (vous) and several male first-person narrators (je). The woman recounts her life from a child up to the age of forty-four. She has always loved animals and is haunted by the question of what reindeer do after Christmas. Overprotected by her parents, the narrator is a Jew in Catholic France who has long suppressed her homosexuality, and thus has always felt like a misfit. The male narrators—a veterinarian, a zookeeper, a laboratory researcher, a butcher, a wolf trainer, and a stock farmer—all work with animals. The protagonist gradually learns about the horrible suffering humans cause animals and comes to identify more with them than with other humans. Rosenthal hints at the connection—expressed by Jacques Derrida, Élisabeth de Fontenay and especially Charles Patterson in Eternal Treblinka—between the human tragedy of the Holocaust and the animal tragedy of the abattoir.

The internet of things is the internetworking of physical devices, vehicles, buildings, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity that enable these objects to collect and exchange data. Security has become an important issue everywhere. In current days, security is becoming necessary as the possibilities of attacks and threats are increasing day by day. In this situation, specific sensitive premises should monitor by a secure alert system with IoT-based advanced technology in order to prevent the threats and attacks on persons or system assets by intruders. The purpose of this system is to notify the use of the intruder's presence at premises and send alert messages to the authority people who help to take prevention actions as well as detection if in misfire situations. This notification will be helpful to know about intruder's presence even if right persons are away from the location.

Abstract:
"In organizational psychology, the authors’ awareness of the concerns about the current academic working conditions and their potential impacts on PhD students’ mental health is increasing. Accordingly, authors have witnessed increased the attention to PhD students’ perception of their fit with the environmental conditions, i.e., organizational policies, co-workers’ and supervisors’ relations and supports, as an antecedent of their PhD experience. In particular, such environmental conditions seem to be related to the high diffusion of state anxiety and depression among PhD students that perceive a certain level of misfit between them and the environment. However, studies suggested that, despite the working conditions, in the presence of positive experience at work, such as meaningful work, individuals are less at risk of developing mental disorders as well as of quitting their job. Indeed, meaningful work construct regards a positive individual phenomenon of experience and perception of meaningfulness at work. Then, it might be a potential experience that might mitigate the experience of negative states at work. The present paper aims to address the current need for knowledge by involving a literature review of the role played by meaningful work in the PhD experience. Then, the paper explores the potential mediational role of meaningful work between the path from P-E misfit and mental disorders’ symptoms and students’ intention to quit. A cross-sectional study has been devised via the use of an online questionnaire with self-report measures on P-E misfit, meaningful work, mental health disorders symptoms, and intention to quit. In a sample of N = 251 Italian PhD students, the results showed a prevalence of three mental health disorders symptoms, i.e., depression, anxiety and hostility, among doctorate students, which resulted to be positively related to the levels of P-E misfit. Then, the results showed a negative mediating role of meaningful work on the paths from P-E misfit to (a) mental disorders and (b) intention to quit. Finally, the paper advances further steps for research as well as for practical implications for supporting PhD students."

Abstract:
Today in aircraft and automotive industry highly complex products are manufactured. For the assembly of those complex products specialized and long trained employees are necessary to guarantee a consitent high quality of products. To reduce the training time and to allow even untrained employees the assembly of e.g. a car engine a dedicated concept has been developed to provide the emplyees with the necessary information. This paper describes the concept and the realization of a method for the representation of simulation data of complex assembly sequences on mobile devices (PDAs, wearables, etc.). Therefore the mobile device identifies the components to be assembled. It shows the correspronding assembly simulation on the display and receives feedback of the assembly operator. This feedback can be freely spoken into the device (e.g. comments on the simulation, misfits of assembly parts, demands for a better quality of the simulation, more detailed representation of single assembly steps) and is automatically sent by email to the person in charge. The modified simulation (according to the feedback of the assembly worker) is then transferred back to the PDA during the synchronization at the docking station.
