Feasibility of an Open Dialogue-Inspired Approach for Young Adults with Psychosis in a Public Hospital System
The development of teachers’ pedagogical content knowledge through Learning Study
In this paper we report on a Learning Study (LS) focused on the teaching and learning of the economic concept of price. Cycles of action research informed by the variation theory of learning were undertaken by a group of secondary school teachers facilitated by the authors over a period of nine weeks. As researchers and facilitators, we were interested to see what effect this form of professional development would have on the teachers’ pedagogica…

Racist Events and Ethnic Identity in Low Income, African Americans
This study was designed to determine the relation between racist events and ethnic identity in a group of 100 low‐income African Americans. Findings indicated that the more racist events one experienced, the more ethnic behaviors they endorsed and the more they had explored the meaning of their ethnic background. In addition, racist events were also indicative of feeling less close to individuals of other ethnic groups. Results suggest that exper…

What is the basis on which the National Lottery can be seen to be justified as an activity. Do young people see the National Lottery as an alternative to taxation? Is the National Lottery per…
Suicidal behavior in African American individuals
Historically, the rates of completed suicide among African American individuals have been relatively low. However, the past 50 years have witnessed a significant rise in suicide rates among this population. In an effort to understand this trend, this article reviews relevant demographic data and empirical and clinical findings regarding the clinical presentations of suicidal behavior among African Americans across the life span. The major psychod…
Suicidality among HIV-positive psychiatric in-patients
Rates of suicidality with HIV-infected, seriously mentally ill individuals were investigated. Fifty asymptomatic HIV-positive psychiatric in-patients were compared to a demographically-matched HIV-negative cohort. The groups were similar, except that seropositive subjects were less likely to be diagnosed with schizophrenia. Both groups had high rates of suicidality, with higher rates associated with non-schizophrenic diagnoses. HIV-positive subje…
The Threat Index
In the past, fear of death and death anxiety have been shown to be directly related to how well “own death” has been integrated into an individual's personal construct system. Other, more recent evidence, has demonstrated that fear of death and death anxiety are also influenced by the degree to which an individual has actualized his/her life goals. The present study, designed to investigate the role of actualization and integration, provides clea…
