Toward a Process Approach in Psychology
Offers an entirely new way of thinking about how psychology works and how it constructs knowledge, using a process-based approach.
Psychosocial Development in Adolescence
Over recent years, it has become clear that group-based approaches cannot directly be used to understand individual adolescent development. For that reason, interest in dynamic systems theory, or DST, has increased rapidly. Psychosocial Development in Adolescence: Insights from the Dynamic Systems Approach covers state-of-the-art insights into adolescent development that have resulted from adopting a dynamic systems approach. The first chapter of the book provides a basic introduction into dynamic systems principles and explains their consequences for the study of psychosocial development in adolescence. Subsequently, different experts discuss why and how we should apply a dynamic systems ap...
Handbook of Integrative Developmental Science
Although integrative conceptions of development have been gaining increasing interest, there have been few attempts to bring together the various threads of this emerging trend. The Handbook of Integrative Developmental Science seeks ways to bring together classic and contemporary theory and research in developmental psychology with an eye toward building increasingly integrated theoretical and empirical frameworks. It does so in the form of a festschrift for Kurt Fischer, whose life and work have both inspired and exemplified integrative approaches to development. Building upon and inspired by the comprehensive scope of Fischer’s Dynamic Skill Theory, this book examines what an integrated...
Online Peer Engagement in Adolescence
This book provides an in-depth insight into what is currently known and relatively unknown about youths’ online peer engagement. It delivers state-of-the-art current reviews of the literature in the field, with a strong coverage of methodological issues in studying online friendships and an emphasis on moving towards a new, less dichotomic, view of online peer interaction in adolescence. With a focus on what spending time with online-exclusive peers entails – in terms of both potential positive as well as negative consequences for friendship quality, intimacy, and well-being – this book offers a more nuanced commentary on youths’ online peer engagement. Including coverage of the evol...
Digitale Kindeswohlgefährdung
In diesem Buch werden Herausforderungen durch digitale Medien für das Aufwachsen von Kindern und Jugendlichen und Handlungsmöglichkeiten für die Soziale Arbeit dargestellt: Wie kann eine altersgerechte Mediennutzung gewährleistet werden? Wie können Minderjährige gestärkt werden, damit sie sich in den sozialen Medien sicherer bewegen? Welche sozialpädagogischen Handlungsansätze gibt es, um zum Beispiel auf übermäßiges Gaming oder problematischen Pornokonsum zu antworten? Die Autor*innen befassen sich außerdem mit Interventionsmöglichkeiten gegen Cybermobbing und sexualisierte Gewalt im Internet sowie mit Herangehensweisen beim Erkennen und bei der Abwendung digitaler Kindeswohlgefährdungen. Auch erlebte Herausforderungen und Grenzen von Fachkräften und Organisationen werden diskutiert.

Dimensionale Vergleiche als Mechanismus zur Selbstaufwertung
Tobias Baumann befasst sich mit den Motiven, die Menschen dazu veranlassen, dimensionale Vergleiche durchzuführen. Sein Fokus liegt dabei auf dem Selbstaufwertungsmotiv, welches die Tendenz bezeichnet, das Selbst in einem möglichst positiven Licht zu sehen. Anhand von drei empirischen Studien zeigt er auf, dass Menschen in Situationen mit negativer affektiver Valenz vermehrt Aufwärtsvergleiche durchführen und dass diese zu einer Aufwertung des Selbst führen. Die Arbeit stellt eine Synthese aus pädagogisch-psychologischer und sozialpsychologischer Forschung dar und demonstriert, dass dimensionale Vergleiche eine hohe affektive Relevanz aufweisen und mehr als nur „kalte Kognition“ darstellen.

Uncertain Destinies and Destinations
Media-produced images of people on the move and religion influence our conceptions of migration. These images have varied content and intent. Some provide awareness of the frequently disturbing situation of people who have lost everything, who have had to leave their homes and families and are desperately searching for new possibilities. Others exploit the traumatic topic and the fate of its subjects to entertain their audience with sensational news, which may include images of vast streams of people making their way to a safe haven in new countries. The mediatization of the phenomenon of flight introduces new pictures and perceptions into current debates about migration. It also requires that we interrogate how we view and engage such images and audiovisual documents. Ethical debates about responsibilities combine with questions about the role of religion and its functions. The present volume approaches the subject of migration and religion from an interdisciplinary perspective with a focus on audiovisual representation. The contributions consider feature films, documentaries, television reports, short films, and press photos.
