Abstract

This book is the outgrowth of a memorial conference to honour the scientific contributions of Robert B. Cairns, an internationally recognised interdisciplinary developmental scientist. It is organised around research themes that were an integral part of Dr Cairns' theories and research: neural and developmental plasticity; brain-behaviour bidirectionality; gene-environment interactions. Throughout this book, these themes are linked together by employing animal models and clinical investigations through multiple levels of analysis approach to understanding the origins, development, desistance and prevention of aggression. These studies will add to the compendium of basic knowledge on the developmental psychobiology of aggression and will aid in the ultimate translation of this knowledge to clinical and community settings. This book hopes to foster the legacy of Robert B. Cairns to facilitate the theoretical development and research of a new generation of developmental scientists dedicated to relieving the tragic consequences of aggression on the individual and society.

Abstract

Der Band präsentiert Beiträge aus unterschiedlichen sprachbezogenen Disziplinen, die einen umfassenden theoretischen Rahmen und Fallstudien zur verbalen Aggression in ihren vielfältigen Erscheinungsformen liefern. Sprachliche Aggressionsformen stellen nicht so sehr eine Verschiebung physischer Aggression dar, sondern sie sind Aggressionsakte sui generis, die vor allem durch ihre starke Symbolizität (gebrauchsgebundene Zeichenhaftigkeit) und Indexikalität (Hinweiskraft) wirken und treffen. Der Band besteht aus vier Hauptteilen, „Zum Ausdruck verbaler Aggression", „Verbale Aggression in Praxisfeldern", „Hassrede und Ideologie", „Inszenierungen verbaler Aggression", in denen nicht nur auf die handlungsleitende Dimension von verbalen Aggressionsakten ausführlich eingegangen wird, sondern auch die Gestaltung von aggressionsbezogenen kommunikativen und diskursiven Praktiken, ihre Gebundenheit an Medien sowie ihre breiten Wirkungsfelder (etwa in therapeutischen und didaktischen Prozessen) nachgezeichnet werden. Das Buch bietet fachlich fundierte Grundlagen und Perspektiven für Sprachwissenschaftler, Psychologen, Soziologen, Pädagogen, Medienwissenschaftler und Journalisten, die sich mit verbaler Aggression auseinandersetzen möchten. This compendium presents essays from various language-related disciplines to provide a comprehensive theoretical framework with case studies concerning verbal aggression in all its diverse forms. In this way, it gives psychologists, sociologists, educators, media scientists, and journalists scientifically based principles and perspectives for dealing with verbal aggression.

Abstract

Workplace aggression is a serious problem for workers and their employers. As such, an improved scientific understanding of workplace aggression has important implications. This volume, which includes chapters written by leading workplace aggression scholars, addresses three primary topics: the measurement, predictors and consequences of workplace aggression; the social context of workplace aggression; and the prevention of workplace aggression. Of note, the book encompasses the various labels used by researchers to refer to workplace aggression, such as 'abusive supervision', 'bullying', 'incivility' and 'interpersonal conflict'. This approach differs from those of previous books on the topic in that it does not focus on a particular type of workplace aggression, but covers an intentionally broad conceptualization of workplace aggression - specifically, it considers aggression from both the aggressors' and the targets' perspectives and includes behaviors enacted by several types of perpetrators, including supervisors, coworkers and customers.
