Abstract:
LAY SUMMARY Research shows that Veterans benefit from writing poetry for therapeutic purposes. This article suggests the need for future research that considers the effects of the artistic choices that Veterans make when using poetry to engage their experiences. The author focuses on one Veteran’s poem about what it means to write poetry as a Veteran. Brian Turner’s “Here, Bullet” comes from his poetry collection about his time as an American infantry team leader in Iraq. This poem centres on a solider whose body is in danger in a conflict setting. The poem becomes an alternative space to his

Abstract:
Self-disclosure and perceived responsiveness are important building blocks of social relationships that have long-lasting consequences for health and well-being. However, the conditions under which self-disclosure and responsiveness are likely to benefit health, and how early in life these benefits arise, remain unclear. Among 141 youth (aged 10-17) with asthma, we investigated how average daily levels of self-disclosure and responsiveness are linked to positive and negative affect and the expression of the glucocorticoid receptor gene NR3C1, a marker of improved regulation of stress physiolog

The chronic experience and expression of negativity is associated with poorer personal and relationship outcomes. Unfortunately, compared to people with high self-esteem, those with low self-esteem (LSEs) are less motivated to repair their negative moods. The current research examined mood repair in a novel way: in a close relationship context, when mood repair centers on benefitting others. We hypothesized that LSEs are more motivated than usual to repair negative moods when doing so benefits close others and when high in agreeableness (a trait involving prosocial motivation).

Abstract:
Thymic central tolerance is a critical process that prevents autoimmunity but also presents a challenge to the generation of anti-tumor immune responses. Medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) eliminate self-reactive T cells by displaying a diverse repertoire of tissue-specific antigens (TSAs) that are also shared by tumors. Therefore, while protecting against autoimmunity, mTECs simultaneously limit the generation of tumor-specific effector T cells by expressing tumor self-antigens. This ectopic expression of TSAs largely depends on autoimmune regulator (Aire), which is expressed in mature

AbstractDetermination of the presence of antibodies against infectious agents, self-antigens, allogeneic antigens and environmental antigens is the goal of medical serology. Along with the standardization of these tests the community also started to use the expression “quantitative serology,” referring to the fact that arbitrary units are used for the expression of results. In this review I will argue against the use of the term quantitative serology for current tests. Because each test and each antibody isotype determination uses its own references, the term semiquantitative better describes

Abstract:
Digital music production is an invaluable marketing tool for entrepreneurs and academic institutions alike. Digital music production can universally cultivate academic success and foster entrepreneurial leadership. Using technological advances in inexpensive digital audio workstations, educators can produce educational content from student expression. Educators can encourage entrepreneurs by facilitating a creative culture within the academic environment. Entrepreneurs can promote a culture willing to support entrepreneurial pursuits by attracting target audiences to the entrepreneur's products' culture. The benefit of royalty payments from entrepreneurial endeavors solidifies an estate for the producer. Additionally, academic institutions have an opportunity to capitalize on the educational benefits of cultural inclusion associated with student self-expression while teaching skills that will benefit the student and institution alike.

Abstract:
Emotional self-regulation is the ability to modify emotional reactions and their subsequent expression through behaviors by being able to recognize, understand, and integrate emotional information. Characteristics of poor emotional self-regulation include heightened emotional responses, difficulty focusing attention or inhibiting behaviors, and low tolerance levels accompanied by high frustration. Poor emotional self-regulation has been associated with a plethora of mental health problems, which includes conduct disorders, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, eating disorders, and nonsuicidal self-injury. In this chapter, the authors discuss how emotional self-regulation develops and its impact on children and youth. Further, they describe practical universal and targeted strategies to increase competence in emotional self-regulation. A case is presented, based on research evidence, that emotional self-regulation skills can be taught and learned, and children benefit by developing skills to manage their emotions. Furthermore, schools are ideal places to help students become more adroit in these skills.

Abstract:
Comprehensive evaluation studies are necessary to “prove” the benefit of Serious Games (SG). This is also extremely important for the commercial success of SG: Best practice examples with profound, well-recorded positive effects will provide relevant arguments to invest into SG for training/education, sports and health, and other application domains. On the other hand, it is not easy to prove the benefit of SG and to measure its effects (e.g. learning effects or medical effects) and affects (user experience factors such as fun during play). Evaluation methodologies might be split into observation, self-evaluation (e.g. questionnaires, interviews), associative methods, performance analyses, and psychophysiology measurement. Technology-enhanced evaluation methods, for instance, facing expression measurement are in the centre of attention. This chapter provides an overview of these methods and describes current interdisciplinary research and technology development achievements in that field.

Abstract:
Chapter 2 argues that John Stuart Mill supported free speech on the grounds of the beneficial effects it can have, in Chapter 2 of his On Liberty of 1859. But the history in chapter 1 suggests that this has been a recurrent view through the ages. If free speech is valued for its benefits, speech that frustrates those benefits suggests a clear boundary on free speech which should appeal voluntarily to its supporters. Their voluntary self-restraint in speech should normally be better than legal constraint for keeping speech beneficial. But self-restraint is not the only preserver of benefits. Speech that opens ears, to take an expression of Gandhi’s—in his case, the ears of powerful opponents—is also a preserver of benefits.

Abstract:
Three interrelated biological subsystems subserve compassion: the autonomic nervous, neuroendocrine, and central nervous systems. The autonomic nervous system—the newly evolved ventral myelinated vagus nerve of the parasympathetic nervous system—allows moment-to-moment fine-tuning of physiological and emotional regulation to promote social engagement behaviours. The neuroendocrine system—the hormones and neurotransmitters vasopressin and oxytocin—facilitates kinship and clan emotional bonding. The central nervous system—an enlarged neocortex (including the prefrontal and cingulate cortices)—allows improved self–other differentiation and the ability to understand another’s emotion. The author reviews the first two subsystems in this chapter, showing that compassion is innate. However, it could be obscured by the adversity of individual experiences and by social context or conditioning. The author also shows that the physiological mechanisms that underlie the expression of compassion in the giver also elicit similar effects in those who receive and benefit from it.

Full text
Abstract:
Some educators become troubled when they watch award ceremonies for teachers and news segments about schools. Very often in those settings, videos show teachers engaged in dramatic, highly animated activity. Nearly all have bold person­alities, and students’ enthusiasm can verge on frenetic. Why might educators be troubled about these images of education? Because the implicit message seems to be that full- throttle dramatic behavior equates with teaching. That groups jumping and shouting equates with learning. Animation can be delivered on a sliding scale that we turn up or turn down, based on students’ learning needs and desires. Varying intensities of verbal and nonverbal communication are important for all teachers to master. Vocal expression and vol­ume, posture, eye contact and expression, gestures, movement, and proximity— all are behaviors that contribute to our animation and teaching personae. If we generate all the energy and excitement in the room, we may be missing out on helping all our students learn. If we treat teaching as entertainment, as our performance of the lesson, we may be missing out on learning how our students learn. Variation in intensities and types of animation is pedagogi­cally sound and educationally warranted. Quiet and calm may need infusions of bold and invigorated. Boisterous and loud may need times of peaceful and hushed . . . all for the benefit of stu­dent learning. A self- check may help us reflect on teaching tendencies and ponder the point at which our entertainer personalities may be subduing students’ learning. • Are we the primary generator of ideas during our classes? • Do we rely on quips, jokes, and teasing to engage students? • Does our level of animation and drama drive the class and the lesson? • Does the proportion of our teacher- talk greatly outweigh student- talk? • Do we value quiet, hesitant student contributions as much as eager, enthusiastic ones? It is every teacher’s challenge to notice and adapt for the benefit of students. Whether our comfort lies in being “a sage on the stage” or “a guide at the side,” we know that we likely need to do both for the benefit of students’ learning.

Full text
Abstract:
In Féerie d’un mutant, Abdelkébir Khatibi creates a dialogue in which one of the interlocutors declares that he is an “étranger professionnel,” a recurring expression in the Moroccan writer’s work that isn’t easily translated from French into English because of the multiple meanings of the first word: “étranger” is most often rendered as either foreigner or stranger, though these terms carry decidedly different connotations for Anglophone readers. This very resistance to translation may be what inspires the individual in the aforementioned textual exchange to specify that this self-description does not refer to a profession, but instead constitutes “a mobile position in the world” that entails “crossing borders: between languages, civilizations, markets.” (Féérie d’un mutant 2005, 38-39). This way of approaching the planet brings the “étranger professionnel” to embrace a stance that stands out in stark contrast to nationalist and xenophobic sentiments: “A foreigner, I must attach myself to all that is foreign on this earth.” (Amour bilingue 1983, 11). The ever-moving, ever-adjusting position that Khatibi extolls has consequences on multiple levels, affecting the body and the relationships of the “étranger professionnel,” but the effects are perhaps most evident on the use of language, which is never taken for granted or considered to be a “given”: “Language belongs to no one […] Hadn’t I grown up, in my mother tongue, as if I were an adopted child? From one adoption to another, I believed I was being born to my own language.” (Amour bilingue 1983, 11). The constant rebirth into language that characterizes Khatibi’s written work involves tireless translation in texts that depict travel as synonymous with self-creation and linguistic innovation that benefit from transnational perspectives that render all things foreign, in complicated but fruitful ways.

This entry describes the evolution and current state of research related to Non-suicidal self-injury on the Internet across a variety of mediums, including social networking websites, video-sharing websites, and informational websites. Although the full influence of such online behaviours on off-line behaviours and functioning remains relatively unknown, it appears that such activities pose both risks and benefits to mental health and wellbeing. Online activities may provide individuals with a history of or interest in self-injury with guidance and education, informal support, a sense of community, as well as allow for personal expression. However, such activities can also serve to trigger, reinforce, and normalize self-injury and may substitute for off-line relationships. The pervasiveness of self-injury online suggests that regular assessment of on-line activity is an important aspect of self-injury treatment. The chapter concludes with suggestions for utilizing the Internet as a novel approach to self-injury prevention and intervention efforts.
