Handbuch der Psychologischen Diagnostik
Heute bietet die Psychologische Diagnostik ein großes Spektrum von Erhebungsverfahren an, die Vorgehensweisen der Befragung und Beobachtung genauso umfassen wie den Einsatz psychometrischer Tests und physiologischer Methoden. Alle Methoden tragen dazu bei, diagnostische Entscheidungen zu verbessern, Interventionen gezielter zu planen und in allen Phasen der Informationserhebung die Qualitätskontrolle zu optimieren. Die Inhalte und Verfahren der Psychologischen Diagnostik werden immer stärker nachgefragt. Das vorliegende Handbuch greift diese Entwicklung auf und bietet einen aktuellen Überblick über die Grundlagen und vielfältigen Anwendungsgebiete dieser zentralen Disziplin der Psychologie. Moderne Erfassungsmethoden wie bildgebende Verfahren werden ebenso behandelt wie neue Entwicklungen in der Psychometrie. Die Anwendungsgebiete reichen von der Klinischen Diagnostik über die Pädagogische Diagnostik bis hin zur Diagnostik in der Betriebs- und Organisationspsychologie. Durch die kompakte Aufbereitung der Inhalte gibt der Band Experten, Praktikern und Studierenden eine optimale Orientierung.
Stress
The prevention, diagnosis and treatment of stress-related disorders are major challenges across medical disciplines. Reasons include a missing covariance between the psychological and physiological stress response and a tremendous intra-individual complexity of disease-related factors, resulting in a broad inter-individual heterogeneity of pathogenetic mechanisms. This book introduces 'Neuropattern', a new concept that attempts to assess the activity of neuroendocrine interfaces participating in the communication between the brain and the body during stress. This approach allows close examination of the causal mechanisms behind stress-related disturbances and diseases, thus enabling individualized preventive and therapeutic interventions. This publication provides clinicians, researchers and students from the fields of psychiatry, psychology, neurobiology and psychoendocrinology with an excellent overview of how knowledge from basic psychobiological research can be translated for the benefit of their patients.
The Development of Face Processing
This book draws together, for the first time, the latest scientific findings from leading international researchers on how face recognition develops. It is only in recent years that methods acceptable in experimental psychology have been developed for studying this vital and unique process. While other publications have concentrated on computer modeling and of face processing and the like, this one is unique in that it looks at fundamental (and so far unanswered) questions such as: What are the roots of and reasons for our ability to recognize faces? How much of this ability is learned and how much innate? By connecting studies on face processing in infancy with those on the development of face processing, it thus bridges the gap between face processing research and visual perceptual development. Leading researchers from USA and Europe who have conducted pioneering work in these domains describe results and anticipate future inquiry, covering topics such as fundamental cognitive abilities in infancy, development of face processing from infancy to adulthood, and the effects of expertise on face recognition.
Ecological Rationality
"More information is always better, and full information is best. More computation is always better, and optimization is best." More-is-better ideals such as these have long shaped our vision of rationality. Yet humans and other animals typically rely on simple heuristics to solve adaptive problems, focusing on one or a few important cues and ignoring the rest, and shortcutting computation rather than striving for as much as possible. In this book, we argue that in an uncertain world, more information and computation are not always better, and we ask when, and why, less can be more. The answers to these questions constitute the idea of ecological rationality: how we are able to achieve intelligence in the world by using simple heuristics matched to the environments we face, exploiting the structures inherent in our physical, biological, social, and cultural surroundings.
Activation of Small Molecules
The first to combine both the bioinorganic and the organometallic view, this handbook provides all the necessary knowledge in one convenient volume. Alongside a look at CO2 and N2 reduction, the authors discuss O2, NO and N2O binding and reduction, activation of H2 and the oxidation catalysis of O2. Edited by the highly renowned William Tolman, who has won several awards for his research in the field.
Lectures on the Arithmetic Riemann-Roch Theorem. (AM-127), Volume 127
The arithmetic Riemann-Roch Theorem has been shown recently by Bismut-Gillet-Soul. The proof mixes algebra, arithmetic, and analysis. The purpose of this book is to give a concise introduction to the necessary techniques, and to present a simplified and extended version of the proof. It should enable mathematicians with a background in arithmetic algebraic geometry to understand some basic techniques in the rapidly evolving field of Arakelov-theory.
