Humanities & Social SciencesBullying and Peer Victimization
by Amie E. Grills, Melissa Holt, Gerald Reid, Chelsey Bowman
A concise guide to understanding, assessing, and addressing bullying There has been an explosion of media attention on youth bullying and peer victimization over the last decade, with cyberbullying becoming more prevalent through the use of social media. While any bullying has serious negative physical and mental health effects which can lead the bullied individual to great despair and even suicide, there are also negative outcomes for the bullies themselves. This volume provides clinicians with clear guidance on how to assess and treat this complex behavior. In this evidence-based guide, practitioners learn about bullying, its prevalence, how cyberbullying differs from in-person bullying, what models are available for understanding how bullying occurs, and the best tools and approaches for assessment of these behaviors. The reader is guided through the most effective school-based prevention programs that aim to reduce bullying, and a clinical vignette gives hands-on insight into how a bullying case in a school is managed. Additional resources are provided in an appendix. This book is ideal for educational psychologists, child psychologists, and anyone working with children and adolescents who is committed to helping those being bullied.

PsychologyACT: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
With ACT Questionnaires for Clinical Assessment, 100 Questions
by Paolo Moderato, Giovambattista Presti, Francesco dell’Orco
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a psychotherapeutic intervention based on experimental evidence. Its goal is to help people implement concrete behaviors in accordance with their values even in the presence of diffcult or interfering events. The authors clearly describe how ACT works and provide useful guidance for clinical practice. Soon the concepts of fusion and defusion become familiar and the Hexafex a way of thinking rather than appearing as a mere scheme. Acceptance and commitment replace refusal and renunciation: this is the innovative therapeutic challenge of ACT. This manual, enriched with metaphors and exercises that can be used in a therapeutic session, is intended for reading by specialists by tackling the themes of this approach with rigor and depth, taking the reader step by step into the heart of ACT. The appendix contains seven ACT questionnaires for clinical assessment.

Work & Care – The Path to Compatibility Competence
Reconciling Work and Caring for Family Members
by Iren Bischofberger
The book focuses on people who, in addition to their gainful employment, are also responsible for caring for sick, impaired, or very old relatives - in other words, “work & care”. This topic is at the intersection of two scarce resources - the private unpaid care potential for loved ones on the one hand and the employment potential of family members on the other. The author examines what the professional, operational, and political consequences are for nursing science and practice as well as for service providers and payers. She makes suggestions for the development of personal, family, and organizational compatibility competence on the levels of action time-out and regeneration, knowledge and empowerment, coordination and organization, exchange and accompaniment. Finally, she offers options for action for nursing science and sheds light on the field of activity of scientific policy advice.
