Manual for the Standard for Clinicians’ Interview in Psychiatry: A New Assessment Tool for Measurement-Based Care (MBC) and Personalized Medicine in Psychiatry (PMP) (Advances in Mental Health and Addiction)

by Ahmed Sayed Aboraya

The SCIP manual will introduce a new assessment tool designed to be compatible with 21st century advances in measurement-base care (MBC) and personalized medicine in psychiatry (PMP). The SCIP includes 18 clinician-administered and 15 self-administered reliable and validated scales covering most adult symptom domains: anxiety, obsessions, compulsions, posttraumatic stress, depression, mania, delusions, hallucinations, disorganized thoughts, aggression, negative symptoms, alcohol use, drug use, attention deficit/hyperactivity, and eating disorders. Mental health professionals (psychiatrists, psychiatry residents, psychologists, therapists, clinical social workers, counselors, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, professors, students, and mental health researchers) are the primary audience of the manual. These professionals will be able to implement SCIP scales in their practice and use the SCIP psychopathology glossary as part of the emerging science of personalized medicine psychiatry (PMP).Existing books on measures and rating scales, such as the two books above, describe different scales developed by different authors at different periods. Each scale has its own rating guidelines and training requirements, which must be followed by clinicians in order to use the scales. This demands a considerable amount of time for clinicians and can be a barrier to using the scales in practice. Even within the same psychopathology domain, many published measurement scales exist. For instance, the book published by Waters and Stephane includes 120 scales for psychosis. Among the 120 scales for psychosis, which scale(s) should the clinician choose? Our proposed manual will remove these barriers by creating simple and universal principles which allow readers to use the 33 reliable and validated SCIP scales with most adult psychiatric disorders. There will be 15 videotaped interviews available online for readers who buy the book. Readers are expected to watch the interviews in conjunction with reading the manual.

Manual on Disciplinary Proceedings

by Muthuswamy Brinda

Disciplinary proceedings against civil servants have, therefore, assumed great importance in recent years in ensuring a clean and efficient administration. The legal principles applicable to this branch and the procedure to be followed are, however, not free from doubt. There is a confusing mass of case-law on the subject. Under the circumstances, Swamy’s Manual on “ Disciplinary Proceedings” compiled by Mr. P. Muthuswamy, has to be welcomed as a laudable and timely contribution to this branch of Government literature.

Manuel de rédaction à l’usage des militaires

by Éric Ouellet Pierre Pahlavi Adam Chapnick Craig Stone

Le Manuel de rédaction à l’usage des militaires est un guide de rédaction qui s’adresse aux membres des forces armées appelés à rédiger des textes de qualité dans un style soutenu pour un lectorat militaire averti. Au-delà de l’art de rédiger de manière précise et convaincante, ce manuel fait valoir auprès des militaires gradés qu’une bonne compréhension des rudiments de la rédaction contribue à leur propre efficacité dans leur fonction, tout particulièrement lorsqu’ils accèdent aux rangs supérieurs de l’institution. Le Manuel de rédaction à l’usage des militaires a été développé de manière à habiliter les militaires gradés à aller au-delà de la simple rédaction d’une note de service pour réussir une rédaction plus élaborée qui intègre les règles « universelles » des travaux universitaires. Il aborde divers aspects de la rédaction : l’importance de parfaire ses connaissances et ses habiletés en rédaction; le processus de rédaction et les différences selon le style adopté et les lectorats visés; la méthodologie et la recherche; les questions éthiques comme le plagiat; et les difficultés et les pièges les plus courants. Le dernier chapitre s’avère novateur dans la mesure où il porte sur la façon dont les membres des forces armées peuvent s’inspirer de leur expérience militaire comme élément porteur d’un exercice de rédaction. Des exemples précis, toujours avec un lectorat militaire à l’esprit, complètent le texte. Le Manuel de rédaction à l’usage des militaires est unique en son genre puisqu’il a été conçu spécifiquement à l’intention du personnel des forces armées. Les auteurs Éric Ouellet et Pierre Pahlavi et les collaborateurs Adam Chapnik et Craig Stone sont des professeurs chevronnés qui enseignent au Collège des Forces canadiennes de Toronto. Ce livre, taillé sur mesure pour répondre à un besoin précis, est donc appelé à devenir une référence incontournable dans ce milieu, à l’instar de sa version originale en langue anglaise, Academic Writing for Military Personnel, d’Adam Chapnik et Craig Stone. - Ce livre est publié en français

Manuel de rédaction à l'usage des militaires, nouvelle édition

by Eric Ouellet Adam Chapnick Craig Stone

Manuel de rédaction à l'usage des militaires est conçu pour aider le personnel militaire à rédiger des textes scientifiques dans un style clair et efficace. Fruit de la collaboration entre un professeur d’écriture chevronné et un officier militaire à la retraite, le manuel s’adresse aux membres des forces armées qui rejoignent le monde universitaire et qui ont déjà rédigé dans un contexte professionnel militaire ou qui n’ont aucune expérience de la rédaction. En plus d’enseigner aux officiers et officières comment rédiger efficacement, ce manuel explique en quoi la maîtrise des techniques de rédaction est utile au personnel des forces armées dans leurs tâches régulières, en particulier aux échelons supérieurs. L’ouvrage traite de l’importance de savoir communiquer par écrit, de ce qui distingue la rédaction savante de la rédaction professionnelle, des processus de recherche et de rédaction proprement dite, du professionnalisme dans la sphère universitaire ainsi que des problèmes et défis fréquemment rencontrés par les rédactrices et les rédacteurs. Un dernier chapitre novateur traite de la manière dont les officiers peuvent mettre à profit les connaissances qu’ils ont acquises par leurs expériences professionnelles dans le contexte universitaire. Des exemples concrets — à l’usage particulier des militaires — sont présentés tout au long du texte pour guider la lectrice et le lecteur de manière pratique et pertinente.Cette édition révisée comprend de nouveaux exemples provenant d’une plus grande variété de sources. Elle prend en compte l’évolution récente des technologies de communication et reflète les nouvelles avancées dans les domaines de l’enseignement et de l’apprentissage.Cet ouvrage, le seul guide exhaustif de rédaction à l’usage du personnel militaire, est un ajout incontournable à la bibliothèque de tout officier et officière militaire, où qu’il se trouve et quel que soit son rang.Ce livre est publié en français. Formats disponibles : couverture souple, PDF accessible et ePub accessible

Mapping the Way from Teacher Preparation to edTPA® Completion: A Guide for Secondary Education Candidates

by Jason C. Fitzgerald Michelle L. Schpakow

As nationwide calls for educational rigor and accountability continue across the U.S., many states have made the edTPA®, a teacher performance assessment, a requirement for teacher certification. The edTPA® is a subject-specific performance assessment that requires aspiring teachers to plan, implement, assess, and reflect upon a learning segment, while demonstrating pedagogical skills related to their disciplines. While it is designed to promote teaching excellence, the edTPA® can drive already-stressed teacher candidates to their breaking point, as it places them in an unfamiliar classroom and asks them to quickly display their knowledge and savvy. This book is here to help teacher candidates not only survive the challenge of the edTPA®, but also thrive. It maps out precisely what steps aspiring secondary education teachers should take to ensure successful completion of the edTPA®. Demystifying the language used in the assessment, it uniquely connects edTPA® requirements with what teacher candidates learn within their teacher preparation programs, showing them how the assessment relates to what they are already doing in their classrooms. The strategies in this book draw on both academic research and practical experience to guide student teachers as they plan for their edTPA® portfolios and for their teaching careers beyond.

Mark: Shaping the Life and Legacy of Jesus (T&T Clark's Study Guides to the New Testament.)

by Abraham Smith

This Guide reads the Gospel of Mark as a 1st-century CE story about Jesus, for his followers, and against tyranny or the abusive use of power. <p><p>First, the book shows students how the Gospel uses the form of a traditional laudatory biography (a 'Life') to reshape the memory of the shame-ridden trials and suffering of Jesus. Such a biography portrayed Jesus' descent (as a son of God), his deeds, and his heroic death, dispelling any notion that the teacher Jesus was a charlatan or huckster. <p><p>Second, Smith demonstrates how the Gospel devotes a great deal of space to Jesus' training of his disciples - as he calls, commissions, and corrects them in preparation for the difficult moments of their journey. <p><p>Third, Smith highlights the Gospel's special characterizations of Jesus—as a prophetic envoy, a man of authority, and a philosophical hero—contrasting Jesus' use of power with the abusive use of power by Rome's representatives (Herod Antipas and Pilate).
