Multidimensional Grief Therapy: A Flexible Approach to Assessing and Supporting Bereaved Youth
by William Saltzman Christopher M. Layne Julie B. Kaplow Robert S. PynoosMultidimensional Grief Therapy (MGT) provides counselors, social workers, psychologists, and psychiatrists (as well as students in these fields) with a flexible program for assessing and supporting children and adolescents who have experienced bereavement. MGT is a strength-based intervention, designed to reduce unhelpful grief reactions that prevent adjustment, and promote adaptive grief reactions that enable children to cope better after a death. It also reduces associated symptoms of psychological distress and helps bereaved children and adolescents lead healthy, happy, productive lives. As young people grieve in different ways and “one-size-fits-all” treatments often lack effectiveness, MGT uses an assessment-driven, two-phased approach to effectively address the unique mental health needs of diverse youth. This manual provides a wealth of activities and handouts designed specifically to engage and empower youth after experiencing a death, including under traumatic circumstances.

Multidimensional Item Response Theory (Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences #183)
by Wes BonifaySeveral decades of psychometric research have led to the development of sophisticated models for multidimensional test data, and in recent years, multidimensional item response theory (MIRT) has become a burgeoning topic in psychological and educational measurement. Considered a cutting-edge statistical technique, the methodology underlying MIRT can be complex, and therefore doesn’t receive much attention in introductory IRT courses. However author Wes Bonifay shows how MIRT can be understood and applied by anyone with a firm grounding in unidimensional IRT modeling. His volume includes practical examples and illustrations, along with numerous figures and diagrams. Multidimensional Item Response Theory includes snippets of R code interspersed throughout the text (with the complete R code included on an accompanying website) to guide readers in exploring MIRT models, estimating the model parameters, generating plots, and implementing the various procedures and applications discussed throughout the book.

Multidimensional Models of Perception and Cognition (Scientific Psychology Series)
by F. Gregory AshbyThe mental representations of perceptual and cognitive stimuli vary on many dimensions. In addition, because of quantal fluctuations in the stimulus, spontaneous neural activity, and fluctuations in arousal and attentiveness, mental events are characterized by an inherent variability. During the last several years, a number of models and theories have been developed that explicitly assume the appropriate mental representation is both multidimensional and probabilistic. This new approach has the potential to revolutionize the study of perception and cognition in the same way that signal detection theory revolutionized the study of psychophysics. This unique volume is the first to critically survey this important new area of research.

Multidimensionales Service Prototyping: Service Innovationen kreieren, kommunizieren und bewerten
by Christian Van Husen Jivka OvtcharovaDas Buch stellt einen neuen Ansatz für Innovationsprozesse von Dienstleistungen vor, ein „Multidimensionales Service Prototyping“. Innovation von Dienstleistungen wird durch den Einsatz von Service Prototypen agiler und kundenorientierter. Methoden und die Umsetzung des Prototyping werden dargestellt und erläutert. In Anwendungsbeispielen werden die Entwicklung technischer Dienstleistungen von Online-Beratungsautomaten bis zu Simulatoren für die Ausbildung von Maschinenbedienern präsentiert.Prototypen sind in der Fahrzeugtechnik und im Werkzeugbau ein üblicher Entwicklungsschritt auf dem Weg zum marktreifen Produkt. Für Dienstleistungen hingegen gibt es noch kein verbindliches und wissenschaftlich erprobtes System zur Entwicklung von Prototypen. Gleichzeitig gewinnt das Angebot von Produkt-Service-Systemen als Kombination aus technischen Gütern und Dienstleistungen stark an Bedeutung. Unternehmen müssen zunehmend komplexe Dienstleistungen neu entwickeln – verbunden mit der Herausforderung, bereits im Entwicklungsprozess über Servicekonzepte zu entscheiden, diese mit den Beteiligten zu kommunizieren und zu testen. Dafür können Service Prototypen entscheidende Beiträge leisten.Videos per App: Laden Sie die Springer Nature More Media App kostenlos herunter - Abbildungen im Buch per App mit Handy oder Tablet scannen, um Videos zu streamen.
