A Clinical Guide to the Treatment of the Human Stress Response Third Edition George S. Everly, Jr., and Jeffrey M. Lating Praise for the third edition: “This is a significant update for a significant book. Everly & Lating once again articulate for practitioners how best to read and manage their clients’ stress and develop effective, evidence-based treatment programs for various stress injuries and disorders. It speaks well of practitioners who have this book within eyesight when stress for themselves as well as their clients require effective action.” Charles R. Figley, Henry Kurszeg, MD, Chair in Disaster Mental Health, Tulane University, New Orleans  “To be effective, our understanding of human stress and suffering must be as comprehensive as the people we seek to help are complex. This superb work helps us step back and see the big picture—the complex interactions of mind, brain, personality, body, spirit, and environment—and does so in a wonderfully clear and practical way. The expansions and revisions in this new edition have made this classic even more useful. I enthusiastically recommend it for practitioners, educators, researchers, and students alike.” Glenn R. Schiraldi, Ph.D., Lt. Col. (USAR, Ret.), University of Maryland School of Public Health  Continuing in the tradition of its noted predecessors, the Third Edition of A Clinical Guide to the Treatment of the Human Stress Response brings the physiological and psychological aspects of stress together in a framework for improved understanding and practice. Thoroughly updated chapters, plus new additions on emerging topics such as resilience, provide theoretical and conceptual background to enhance the practical suggestions. A wealth of treatment strategies allows clinicians to find the most accurate interventions for specific client problems. And by focusing on the body’s stress response instead of on the resulting pathologies, the book offers readers guidelines for preventing worsening symptoms and future relapses. The Guide’s expert coverage includes: • Models of the link between stress arousal and illness. • A system-by-system overview of stress-related disorders. • Measurement issues in stress and coping. • Treatment strategies for stress, including cognitive therapy, neurological desensitization, biofeedback, therapeutic breathing, EMDR, and pharmacology. • Special chapters on spirituality/religion, nutrition, grief/loss, sleep, and crisis intervention. • A treatment model, a treatment protocol, self-report forms, and more. • New chapters on the timely topics of “psychological first aid” and fostering “human resilience,” and more. Students, practitioners, and researchers in the fields of psychology, psychiatry, medicine, nursing, social work, and public health will welcome the Third Edition of A Clinical Guide to the Treatment of the Human Stress Response as a timely, accessible reference to an ongoing--and mounting--challenge.

De Community Reinforcement Approach (CRA) is een gedragstherapeutische methode voor de behandeling van verslaving, ontwikkeld in de Vs. Die gaat ervan uit dat mensen afhankelijk van middelen blijven doordat zij worden omgeven door een overmaat aan factoren die hun alcohol- en/of druggebruik bekrachtigen. Aantrekkelijke, niet-verslavingsgebonden alternatieven zijn in onvoldoende mate aanwezig of ontbreken zelfs. CRA heeft als doel samen met de cliënt te werken aan een nieuwe en gezondere leefstijl die meer voldoening geeft dan alcohol- en/of druggebruik. Inmiddels bestaat er ruimschoots bewijs dat CRA een effectieve behandeling voor cliënten met verslavingsproblemen is

The cravings, the compulsive behaviors, the potential fatal health consequences--once considered relatively harmless, tobacco use is now understood to have addictive properties similar to those of hard drugs. Dependence on tobacco and nicotine from smoking, chewing, or other means affects millions around the world, and for countless people it remains resistant to efforts to quit despite the level of intervention or number of attempts.   Smoking Prevention and Cessation addresses this longstanding problem on various biological, societal, and psychological fronts. This extensively researched volume traces the mechanics of smoking initiation, nicotine dependence and withdrawal, and motivation to quit. Chapters analyze smoking as a global public health issue, review the epidemiology of smoking-related disease, and evaluate prevention and cessation interventions (pharmacology included) as applied to different settings and populations. The detailed, data-rich presentation gives readers a rounded, realistic understanding of smoking on a worldwide level as the book:   Introduces measurement tools for gauging nicotine dependence. Examines the media in tobacco advertising and smoking prevention messages. Analyzes "what works" in prevention approaches. Compares the efficacy of cessation interventions. Pinpoints issues specific to smoking among health professionals and youth. Reviews economic, bioethics, and policy issues related to smoking.   Researchers and graduate students in public health, health promotion, behavioral medicine, and smoking cessation will find Smoking Prevention and Cessation a unique reference packed with evidence-based insights and practical, workable ideas.

An adult's health is determined not only by stress levels, food choices, and recreational habits. Science is paying increased attention to the roles of prenatal, perinatal, and early childhood conditions in shaping health and well-being across the lifespan. Families and Child Health brings clarity to this complex and multifaceted topic. This comprehensive volume presents analyses of the interactions between the "nature" and "nurture" components of the equation, providing current findings on in utero nutrition and development and examining the roles of social determinants and family discord in the creation of health disparities. Contributors emphasize opportunities for prevention and intervention and make the case for interdisciplinary collaboration. Among the topics covered in depth are: Early developmental origins of chronic disease. Lifecourse exposures and social disparities in child health. The science of designing, implementing, and evaluating programs and policies for child health. Effects of early psychosocial deprivation on children's cognitive and social development. The family-friendly workplace and its impact on child and family health. Integrating perspectives on children's health. Families and Child Health is bedrock reading for researchers, professors, and graduate students in disparate fields such as policy analysis, human development, family studies, sociology, social welfare, family demography, public health, health science, clinical psychology, social psychology, behavioral medicine, and public policy. Policymakers will also find it of considerable importance.

This work examines mortality among young children in the period from the seventeenth to the nineteenth century. It does so using several types and sources of information from the census unit England and Wales, and from Ireland. The sources of information used in this study include memoirs, diaries, poems, church records and numerical accounts. They offer descriptions of the quality of life and child mortality over the three centuries under study. Additional sources for the nineteenth century are two census-derived numerical indexes of the quality of life. They are the VICQUAL index for England and Wales, and the QUALEIRE index for Ireland. Statistical procedures have been applied to the numbers provided by the sources with the aim to identify effects of and associations between such variables as gender, age, and social background. The book examines the results to consider the impact of children’s deaths upon parents and families, and concludes that there are differences and continuities across the centuries.
