The present study aims at exploring the extent to which Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) familiarity may have an impact on flow experience. In so doing, the community sample of 60 students comprising 16 males and 44 females participated in the study. Initially, the pretest was conducted to ensure the homogeneity of their proficiency level. Besides, the participants were asked to reflect on their flow experience while reading three distinct genres of journalistic texts prior to the application of the treatment. During the treatment phase, they were instructed how to critically examine other journalistic texts relying on Fairclough’s (1989) three dimensional model along with Van Dijk’s (1995) theoretical framework of CDA over 10 successive sessions. Finally, utilizing paired- samples  t-tests, the results of the posttests on the very three texts which were conducted at the pretest stage, indicated that the application of CDA  has a significant influence on the students’ optimal experience while reading descriptive, expository, and narrative genres of journalistic texts.

Regional anesthesia, or rendering only a targeted part of the body anesthetized, has numerous benefits for both the surgeon and patient. Local anesthetic agents are essential to create and maintain regional blockades, and detailed knowledge of these agents is essential to providing safe and effective care. This chapter begins with review of the basic pharmacology, indications, and contraindications for the use of regional anesthesia. Numerous specific blockades used to anesthetize distinct regions of the body are reviewed with specific focus on anatomy and technique. When safely performed, regional anesthesia can provide an optimal experience for both surgeon and patient.
