Maltreatment and Trauma: Toward a Comprehensive Model of Abused Children from Developmental Psychology

Knowledge of how maltreatment and trauma aects personality functioning in abused children has been greatly enhanced by clinical theory and research in developmental psychology. Developmental research and theory has allowed the child abuse field to move beyond symptom-lists toward broader models of how trauma impacts major domains of personality functioning. However, these models continue to be based largely on discrete theories of development that parallel, if not confound, one another. This paper attempts to expand our understanding of the traumatized child by using the synthetic model of personality development expounded by Fred Pine that promotes a more holistic and comprehensive view of the abused child and, thus, enhances clinical theory and intervention.

A Group Approach to Fostering Self-Cohesion and Developmental Progression in Female Adolescent Group Home Residents

In this project, the applicability of David Wexler's (1991a,b) multi-model Program for Innovative Self Management (PRISM) to adolescent girls in group home placement was explored. The model is based on self-psychological and developmental theory. Originally developed for use in adolescent inpatient settings, PRISM utilizes cognitive-behavioral and relaxation techniques to equip the acting out adolescents with skills to better manage a wide array of emotions and behaviors. A modified version of PRISM was conducted in a group psychotherapeutic format with eighteen residents of two group homes, ages 14 to 18. The study reflected that the participants embraced the model and applied the skills with encouraging results. Recommendations for future research in this area are presented.

循环经济：从发展理念到建设模式

巨大的人口压力要求中国必须保持高速的经济增长,经济的高速增长使资源环境问题日益凸显。以增加社会总需求、实现充分就业为目标的凯恩斯经济学,忽视了资源稀缺的约束,孳生了以要素高投入、废弃物高排放、产出高增长为特征的经济发展模式。自1980年代起,中国政府和社会各界就从实践和理论上对新的经济发展模式进行了艰苦的探索。科学发展观与和谐社会的理念,主张把人重新纳入自然界,人与自然和谐并存、共同发展;生产力概念应当给予重新界定:生产力是人们顺应自然,发展经济,实现人类与自然共同进步的能力。作为一种发展理念,循环经济已经得到人们比较一致的认可;现在最重要的是必须适时地把循环经济理念转变为行为,把理论的结论转化为实践的成果,把发展模式具体化为建设模式。     

The Tellado case study exercise: A metacritique

This paper provides an overview and critique of the papers in the Tellado Case Study Exercise. Two main themes are found in the critiques: the belief that Tellado lacked a clear audience for his evaluation and that he lacked an appropriate change orientation that would insure utilization. The sources of these criticisms are discussed from the perspective of evaluation as a linkage activity. The use of this perspective leads to the recognition that all parties to the case study may have focused on the wrong stakeholders in the utilization process. Thus, a major problem with utilization-focused and stakeholder based approaches to evaluation is revealed. Possible ways to avoid this problem are discussed. The paper concludes with a request for additional case studies to be contributed to the journal.
