Abstract:
The decade from 1985 to 1997 saw rapid social and economic change in the 27 remote hunting and trapping First Nations of Northwestern Ontario. The area also saw an eightfold increase in the suicide rate despite the introduction of a multi-million dollar system of outside helping services. By assuming control of health services, the First Nations have increased the ability to address health and social service problems locally.

Bäccman, Charlotte. "Mind over matter : Non-cognitive assessments for the selection of the Swedish voluntary soldier of peace." Doctoral thesis, Karlstads universitet, Institutionen för sociala och psykologiska studier, 2015. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:kau:diva-37934.

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis was firstly, to investigate if the current selection system mirrors the task of international deployment and voluntariness. Secondly, to investigate if and how non-cognitive assessments of personality and resilience, individual aspects that seem underrepresented in the current selection system, may increment validity to the current selection system. Since 2012 the Swedish Armed Forces is an All-volunteer Force where young men and women voluntarily can apply for a military service. In contrast to conscription, military service today includes compulsory international deployments with different demands on the personnel’s range of possible abilities and skills as well as selection process—yet the current selection system may not sufficiently correspond to the changes. The thesis comprises four studies (Study I-IV) with relevant military samples, and aside from Study I, a validation of a short version personality questionnaire (PQ) being used in two of the subsequent studies, Study II-IV had a longitudinal design. Study II shows that the former selection system lacked prognostic value of soldiers’ performance during international deployment, and their ability to readjust at homecoming. Additionally, Study II shows that non-cognitive assessments can be used as predictors for readjustment. Study III indicates that international deployment does not need to be harmful for the psychological well-being and that good health seems to be a stable factor across time and situations. Thus, selection of “good health” and resilience may prove fruitful. Study IV suggests that high motivation to serve may have serious consequences for selection decisions and, in the long run, the recruits’ psychological well-being. In sum, this thesis suggests that the current selection system needs adaption to the task of repeated international deployments and to the voluntary applicant pool, and that non-cognitive assessment may increment validity.
Since the end of the Cold War the Swedish Armed Forces has undergone several changes regarding both task and personnel system. The task of national security does not only entail territorial defense but also international operations worldwide. In addition, the soldiers are no longer conscripts but young men and women who have volunteered to secure and uphold peace and democratic values. The purpose of this thesis was twofold: firstly, to investigate if the current selection system mirrors the recent refocus on international operations and voluntariness; secondly, to see if and how non-cognitive assessments of personality, health, and resilience increment validity to the current selection system in identifying individuals suitable for repeated international deployments. This work was guided by a series of tentative questions regarding both the selection system in particular, but also international deployments in general. The four papers in this thesis suggest that the current selection system need to be adapted to better correspond to repeated international deployments as well as to a voluntary applicant pool; and that non-cognitive assessments of personality, health, and resilience increment validity to the selection system.

Abstract:
This study examined the relationship between the religious orientation quest and well-being using the 1998 General Social Survey. In addition to the religious orientation quest the extrinsic and intrinsic religious orientations were also investigated. Analysis of the data indicated that there was a slight negative association between quest and general well-being, while also demonstrating a strong positive association between quest and inner peace. These results underscore the supposition that quest is an orientation that is complex and ultimately deserves further attention.

Murphy, Terence I. "Minnesota boy, journeys of mind and place: A memoir; and, International development in the era of mass travel : an essay." Thesis, Edith Cowan University, Research Online, Perth, Western Australia, 2010. https://ro.ecu.edu.au/theses/144.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis, in two parts, comprises a memoir and a supporting essay. The memoir, ‘Minnesota Boy, Journeys of Mind and Place,’ covers a lifetime, but focuses primarily on the author’s experience of working in international development programs in various countries of Asia and the Pacific Islands; The essay, ‘International Development in the Era of Mass Travel,’ examines the historical and institutional context of the two overlapping fields of that experience, that is, travel and development. Like the essay, the memoir has two threads. The first thread charts the learning curve of a boy from a rural homestead in Northern Minnesota, through the fundamentals of family and early education, out into a world of former colonies that are making the transition to independent states, while along the way passing through the sometimes traumatic, often exciting, turmoil of 1960s San Francisco, and ultimately settling—after years of travel—in the Western Australian port city of Fremantle. The second thread offers a dynamic and personal view of life in six countries, two in the Western Pacific, and four in Asia, as experienced over the course of more than forty years, beginning with the deeply troubled former French colonies of Cambodia and Vietnam in the early 1960s and culminating in an energetic and newly democratic Indonesia in 2006. The essay examines the history as well as the literature of international travel as a corollary of the outward thrust of European power from the fifteenth century onwards, illustrating the relationship between the quest for wealth through trade, the increasing momentum of colonial expansion, and the growing literature and business of travel. With the gradual disintegration of the colonial empires following World War Two, and an intensifying ideological competition between the Euro-American states and the Soviet Union and China, the move to shore up the newly independent former colonies through programs of directed financial and technical assistance burgeoned into a multi-billion dollar international enterprise, fostering as well a body of literature to analyse, explain and critique its programs. The essay reviews the origins and progress of that program of international development assistance, or foreign aid, and appraises the literature that followed in its wake. In sum, in its two parts the thesis unites one person’s experience of, and insights into, the rapid, often traumatic, changes of a post-war, post-colonial world with the history and literature of development and travel that constitute the circumstances of that experience.

Ab, Rahman Anis Amira Binti. "A phenomenon of creative leadership in small high technology firms : the interplay of aesthetic, peace of mind, companionship and space for innovation." Thesis, University of Essex, 2013. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.605144.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis aims to understand the nature of the creative leadership phenomenon in small high technology firms (SHTFs) by exploring and explaining the phenomenon. The existing landscape on creative leadership's research focuses on the outcome perspective with a sing le level analysis by utilising cognitive dimension in understanding the phenomenon. Therefore, this thesis suggests a new theory that explains the phenomenon based on a process perspective with multilevel analysis, which analyses individual, team and organisation levels by highlighting the central position of the aesthetic dimension. The current study is qualitative in nature and is underpinned by phenomenological symbolic interactionism, which facilitated the theory development process. An Abductive case study as a research strategy was employed. The narratives that explained the phenomenon were sought from the leaders and their followers in two SHTFs and two small low-technology firms (SLTFs) which also helped to increase the understanding of the creative leadership phenomenon in SHTFs. The results of the study unfold two issues that are the contributions to creative leadership and entrepreneurship knowledge. The new theory that is based on the findings suggests that: the creative leadership phenomenon is about tile individual leaders and their followers in SHTFs utilise felt meanings with cognitive abilities to appraise the situation and cope tile situation with companionship relationship and pleasant space for innovation. This study makes several theoretical and empirical contributions to the theories of creative leadership (the new theory) and small technology firm (the similarities and differences between SHTFs and SLTFs). It created a new theory that increases the understanding of the leaders and followers' action in small technology firms and also as guidance for the policy makers to promote creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship

Full text
Abstract:
This two part thesis investigates the lack of definition of the wording “all necessary means” and how it ultimately impacts a decision making gap between the Security Council and the troop contributing countries regarding the use of force in UN peace operations. The assumptions are based on Reus-Smit’s constructivist theory, emphasizing that both politics and international law needs to be studied with a holistic approach in order to understand how the two realms shape each other. The assumption of this thesis is that “all necessary means” is not providing enough guidance to constrain the TCCs to behave as sovereign, equal actors in an anarchical structure. The second part of the thesis is a within-case-study of MONUC/MONUSCO, and the Security Council resolution 2098 that established the Force Intervention Brigade.

Abstract:
In the midst of honing my craft as an educator, this ethnographic narrative was done for the purposes of taking an introspective look at the many moving parts of becoming an effective educator as well as developing an ethnographic view of the students who will pass through my classroom during my tenure as an educator. This ethnographic narrative examines my individual background, the educational spaces within which I find myself, communities I serve, and the students I was given the privilege of building relationships with within the classroom. This project serves as an in-depth analysis of the implicit biases one might hold as a teacher and a vehicle for continual introspection on my part as an effective and culturally-aware educator.

Norberg, Linnea. "Academic motivation and well-being in Sweden and China : An empirical study with a neuroscientific perspective." Thesis, Högskolan i Skövde, Institutionen för biovetenskap, 2018. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:his:diva-15496.

Full text
Abstract:
The Self-Determination Theory (SDT) claims that autonomous motivation is a basic psychological need for all humans across cultures. When this need is met, individuals are predicted to experience well-being. However, it has been argued that autonomous motivation is not a basic need in the Chinese culture due to their philosophical background. Furthermore, commonly used instruments to measure well-being have been criticised for not measuring low arousal positive affect such as “harmony” or “peace of mind” which have been argued to more accurately target well-being for the Chinese population. The aim of this thesis is to give an overview of the psychological and cognitive neuroscientific research relating to intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, well-being and the associated cultural controversy. Additionally, a questionnaire-based study is reported which examine motivation type and well-being of 183 university students in China and in Sweden through self-reported data. The results support the SDT by showing that intrinsic motivation is correlated to well-being for both samples. Furthermore, the Swedish students experienced higher well-being compared to the Chinese students measured by the traditional “western” instruments. However, the Swedish and the Chinese students reported very similar peace of mind. This indicates that the commonly used instruments might not target well-being accurately universally. Limitations of the study and directions of future research is suggested in the discussion.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractThe sustaining peace agenda, fielded by the UN in the mid-2010s, offers an opportunity to take a fresh look at the ways in which we approach our applied, everyday work on and/or for peace in the classroom and beyond. Regarding the field of peace education, there is merit in adopting the less prescriptive, value-laden and universalising and, at the same time, more indeterminate, normatively restrained and humble elements that set the discourse on sustaining peace apart from that of conventional international peacebuilding as we have known it. In this respect, incorporating a focus on historical memory can enhance the strength and value of education on and/or for peace in a world riven with crises, disunity and violent conflict. Rather than upholding notions of universal values, independent of local culture and historically formed power relationships, and the idea that peace can be achieved by righting the individual mind; or seeking to bring about far-reaching social transformation to alleviate the plight of the oppressed and marginalised by empowering them to resist and fight, such an approach strives to enable learners (and teachers) to work towards healing past trauma and recognising the “other” as a moral agent.

A virtuous life is the fruit of a mind with a rich inner landscape. It can be overtly inferred by sincerity in speech, generosity of righteous deeds and is elegantly fulfilled by inner contentment. World peace entails that despite prevailing differences and disapprovals, global citizens find it proper to continue to work together towards meliorating the quality of life for one and all. This paper analyzed secondary data to unveil the instrumental role played by virtues in the conquest of peace. The findings deducted are indicative of the seminal importance of virtue inculcation as means to restore world peace.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract This article investigates how Khaita- Joyful Dances promote an understanding of peace from a transrational and Buddhist perspective. Khaita dances have been created by the Buddhist Dzogchen master Namkhai Norbu as a practice of presence and collaboration, promoting an inner attitude of peace spreading from the individual to the group. Peace is hereby understood as a multi-faceted, intra- as well as interpersonal, dynamic state perceived and experienced not only by the intellectual mind but also through the body and subtle energies. This article is structured in three parts. First, I will explore peace theory in the context of Khaita. Second, I will illustrate the peace understanding promoted by the Tibetan artists through examples from the Khaita songs. The Tibetan song lyrics thereby express the wish for unification amongst Tibetans and the desire for (world) peace. Third, I will investigate the principles of accessible participation, equality as well as collaboration as parameters for peace experiences through examples from the Khaita practice sessions as well as Khaita Kordros, circle dances. The circle dances thereby offer an easy, non-hierarchical immersion in a diverse group of dancers and require presence and self-observation.

Full text
Abstract:
The aircraft seat has been shown to impact passenger comfort experience in the cabin interior. A previous study defined passenger comfort experience in the cabin in terms of eight experiential themes. This study first investigated the possibility of differentiating passenger comfort and discomfort experience in economy class based on participants’ rating of those themes. No significant differences were found between the two concepts. Second, themes that were found to be most connected to the seat and participants’ respective concerns were highlighted. The theme ‘physical wellbeing’ was mentioned most frequently, followed by ‘peace of mind’, and ‘proxemics’. These three accounted for more than 70% of passengers’ seat experience. Among those, only the physical experience correlated with participants’ height, suggesting that to improve the passengers’ comfort experience, design efforts should go beyond the physical fit of the seat to the occupant’s body and explore passenger’s concerns for ‘peace of mind’ and ‘proxemics’.

Full text
Abstract:
Health is one of the most significant incomes of happiness and well-being. Since ancient times, Buddhism has been intimately intertwined with the avoidance of human suffering. Two thousand five hundred years ago, the supreme Buddha preached about the importance of keeping the mind happy and health care. The Buddha, preached as a doctor, talked about how stress affects our mental health and wellbeing, and that the cure for ailments related to mental health is to understand the Dhamma, and that valuable Dhamma is illustrated in the Suttas. The main objective of this research is to study about the content of Buddhism and its importance on how to get health care through happiness. The secondary objective is to study whether it is possible to achieve a healthy life through happiness with the help and the incorporation of Buddhist sermons. The research uses primary and secondary data. Primary data are collected through participant observation and interviews. Secondary data are obtained from both published and unpublished sources. As further data gathered, embracing the teachings of the Buddha into our lives brings peace of mind and it will lead us to the progressive path of being healthy.

Abstract:
Security is an important human need for peace of mind when seeing their possessions safeguarded. This research project consists of the design of a mechanism that is capable of initially controlling a luminaire, opening and closing a curtain and the locking and unlocking of a room door. The general objective is to design a robust, reliable and intuitive mechanism when making use of it and that is capable of increasing the security and biosecurity of any enclosure that is to be protected.

Abstract:
Structural and functional genomic approaches for marking and identifying genes that control chilling requirement in apricot and peach trees. Specific aims: 1) Identify and characterize the genetic nature of chilling requirement for flowering and dormancy break of vegetative shoots in Prunusgermplasm through the utilization of existing apricot (NeweYa'ar Research Center, ARO) and peach (Clemson University) genetic mapping populations; 2) Use molecular genetic mapping techniques to identify markers flanking genomic regions controlling chilling; 3) Comparatively map the regions controlling chilling requirement in apricot and peach and locate important genomic regions influencing chilling requirement on the Prunus functional genomic database as an initial step for identification of candidate genes; 4) Develop from the functional genomics database a set of markers facilitating the development of cultivars with optimized chilling requirements for improved and sustained fruit production in warm-winter environments. Dormant apricot (prunus armeniaca L.) and peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] trees require sustained exposure to low, near freezing, temperatures before vigorous floral and vegetative bud break is possible after the resumption of warm temperatures in the spring. The duration of chilling required (the chilling requirement, CR) is determined by the climatic adaptation of the particular cultivar, thus limiting its geographic distribution. This limitation is particularly evident when attempting to introduce superior cultivars to regions with very warm winter temperatures, such as Israel and the coastal southern United States. The physiological mechanism of CR is not understood and although breeding programs deliberately manipulate CR in apricot and peach crosses, robust closely associated markers to the trait are currently not available. We used segregating populations of apricot (100 Fl individuals, NeweYa'ar Research Center, ARO) and peach (378 F2 individuals, Clemson University) to discover several discreet genomic loci that regulate CR and blooming date. We used the extensive genomic/genetic resources available for Prunus to successfully combine our apricot and peach genetic data and identify five QTL with strong effects that are conserved between species as well as several QTL that are unique to each species. We have identified markers in the key major QTL regions for testing in breeding programs which we are carrying out currently; we have identified an initial set of candidate genes using the peach physical/transcriptome map and whole peach genome sequences and we are testing these currently to identify key target genes for manipulation in breeding programs. Our collaborative work to date has demonstrated the following: 1) CR in peach and apricot is predominantly controlled by a limited number ofQTL loci, seven detected in a peach F2 derived map comprising 65% of the character and 12 in an apricot Fl map comprising 71.6% and 55.6% of the trait in the Perfection and A. 1740 parental maps, respectively and that peach and apricot appear in our initial maps to share five genomic intervals containing potentially common QTL. 2) Application of common anchor markers of the Prunus/peach, physical/genetic map resources has allowed us not only to identify the shared intervals but also to have immediately available some putative candidate gene information from these intervals, the EVG region on LG1 in peach the TALY 1 region in apricot on LG2 in peach; and several others involved in vernalization pathways (LGI and LG7). 3) Mapped BACcontigs are easily defined from the complete physical map resources in peach through the common SSR markers that anchor our CR maps in the two species, 4) Sequences of BACs in these regions can be easily mined for additional polymorphic markers to use in MAS applications.
