The COVID-19 Pandemic, Problematic Internet Use, Post-traumatic Stress and Mental Health

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused tremendous loss of human life and disruption of normal daily activities across the globe. The COVID-19 pandemic can be traumatic and have short-term and long-term influences on individual behaviors and well-being. To contain and control the spread of COVID-19, various public health and social measures (e.g., social distancing, quarantine, isolation, and extensive lockdown of cities) have been implemented in countries worldwide. With such social and environmental changes, the prolonged feelings of fear, worry, stress, and the lack of social activities and interaction may greatly increase the prevalence of mental health issues (e.g., anxiety and depression). Nowadays, Internet has permeated into everyone’s life, which may play an increasingly important role in coping with COVID-19 related stress and anxiety. However, the increasing reliance on the Internet may lead to problematic Internet use (PIU), prolonged screen time, and sedentary lifestyles, and pose great risks to public health.

Individual Differences in Addictive Behaviors

The study of addiction draws primarily on methods and approaches to understanding, treating and supporting addiction drawn from traditional approaches. The foundations of which focus on responses seen across groups, but often neglecting to account for the role the individual differences plays in understanding and treating addiction. It is clear from the literature that there is often a lack of consensus in both understanding and treating those struggling with addiction. Individual differences therefore, whilst not always conforming to the accepted model for developing theoretical interpretations and practice in the field, are key to successful outcomes in treating addiction.

Handbook of Death and Dying

Dying is a social as well as physiological phenomenon. Each society characterizes and, consequently, treats death and dying in its own individual ways—ways that differ markedly. These particular patterns of death and dying engender modal cultural responses, and such institutionalized behavior has familiar, economical, educational, religious, and political implications. The Handbook of Death and Dying takes stock of the vast literature in the field of thanatology, arranging and synthesizing what has been an unwieldy body of knowledge into a concise, yet comprehensive reference work. This two-volume handbook will provide direction and momentum to the study of death-related behavior for many ...

人性反思與敘述魅力

本書從不同層面解讀嚴歌苓不同時期,不同篇幅的小說。嚴歌苓一向愛為讀者說故事,其小說的敘述魅力不但見於樸直、鮮活而細緻的語言,也在於情節的設計以及內容的鋪陳,這一切都令其訴說的故事引人入勝且獨具韻味。歷年來嚴歌苓筆耕不輟,移居國外後,筆下始終離不開中國人的故事,或許歷經他鄉再回望故土,最牽動她的仍是舊地的種種。 本書以「人性反思」為題,展現了政治與人性糾葛的紛紛擾擾,因為嚴氏小說所演繹的,正是嚴苛的政治環境以及顛簸的國族命運中人性的陰晴明晦。她以其獨特的敘述技巧,娓娓述說著一個又一個人心的陰暗與光輝重疊交錯的故事。
