Conscious Control

This chapter assesses the idea that patients with Non-Epileptic Seizures (NES) are “difficult.” Anger is an emotion that people feel in the context of perceived injustice: if something is taken from someone, if someone is treated differently, or if someone is not given what he or she deserves. Often, individuals with NES have been treated badly by the people who should have shown them care. This is not a universal truth by any stretch, but research has shown there to be a high incidence of trauma within NES populations. Experiencing symptoms affecting movement and awareness that are outside of conscious control often means that people with NES miss out on opportunities and lose their jobs and driving licenses as well as their independence. Unfortunately, for someone who experiences NES, the journey to a final diagnosis could take years. As such, patients’ anger is not simply attributable to an interaction with one professional or to an explanation that people with NES are inherently difficult. Instead, it is important to look beyond the clinic room to acknowledge that the system as a whole is not meeting the needs of people who experience NES and that this is not fair. One way to make a difference, then, is to provide access to information and training for healthcare professionals.

The article shows that in career development, the use of acting techniques opens up new opportunities. The author traces the development of the Russian acting school, created by K.S. Stanislavsky and later revised and supplemented by his students, in the modern socio-economic situation. The article demonstrates that despite the fact that for many years this school was aimed exclusively at educating and training people who want to connect their lives with the theater, it had a significant impact on amateurs as well. Passion for the performing arts was traced among people of a wide variety of professions, which contributed to the creation of numerous amateur theaters. This tendency was especially evident in educational institutions. Pupils and students under the guidance of an experienced director tried to take steps in the stage space, received grateful responses, but continued to be content with the role of an amateur actor, without encroaching on the laurels of a professional. Nevertheless, after that, their main activity, regardless of the direction, moved to a completely different level. Without any psychotherapeutic interventions, the attitude to oneself, to the people around, and to situations changed, the speech apparatus and the timbre of the voice were transformed, phobias and depressive tendencies disappeared. As a result, participants in amateur theaters acquired a new circle of friends and promotions, or they radically changed their field of activity, opening completely new prospects for themselves. The article examines these possibilities in the framework of the modern situation, when the entire range of theater and acting means may be in demand by representatives of other professions.

Students with disabilities are served by both special and general educators, yet teachers often feel unprepared to meet the needs of these students in their classrooms. Using data from a nationally representative survey, we examined the sufficiency of teachers’ access to supports available for meeting the needs of students with high-incidence disabilities, their access to development opportunities, and the sources teachers used to access interventions. We explored differences in teachers’ experiences by grade band, service delivery model, and teacher preparation model. We found teachers of students with disabilities rated the sufficiency of access to supports between somewhat insufficient and somewhat sufficient, with the lowest ratings for planning/release time and training and information. Teachers reported greater rates of access to collaboration than professional development. Colleagues were sources for resources related to academic interventions and administrators were sources for nonacademic intervention resources. There were few significant differences in these results by teacher characteristics.

The Grajagan village had a library located at the village office. So far, the library has not been managed and utilized optimally. The problems that occur in this library include the lack of book collections, the absence of chairs and tables for readers, the condition of the library is not well organized, and the library staff were not trained in managing the library. These problems have resulted in the low interest of the people of Grajagan village to visit the village library. To solve the problems, it was necessary to provide assistance in library development. Library development is carried out through the addition of book collections, providing chairs and tables for readers, arranging library space, and training for library staff. Based on the results of community service activities that have been carried out, it can be stated that the library's book collection has increased by 88 books, the library space becomes more comfortable with the increase in furniture, and the library staff has increased their knowledge in terms of library management. To further increase the role and function of the library, promotion or introduction to the library's book collections and facilities to local villagers is required.

The article is devoted to the study of the “Shakespearean text” by Yuri Dombrovsky from the standpoint of Bakhtin dialogism. Clarifies the concept of “Shakespearean text” refers to and analyzes “Shakespearean text” by Dombrovsky, including artistic works – a trilogy of novels about Shakespeare (“Dark Lady” “Second-highest quality bed”, “Royal Rescript”) and two chapters of the novel “Dark Lady” (“Queen” and “Count Essex”), originally entered into its composition, but later was published separately, as well as two scientific and critical articles – “‘RetlandBaconSouthamptonShakespeare’: about the myth, anti-myth and biographical hypothesis” and “To Italians about Shakespeare”. The study author states that “Shakespearean text” by Yuri Dombrovsky dominated themes of tyranny and government that does not want to hear the people, of censorship, depriving the artist’s freedom of expression and the role of the artist in an unfree society. Special attention is paid to the problem of interaction between Shakespeare and monologue-authoritarian society in the artistic world created by the writer. The author hypothesizes that in the trilogy of short stories about Shakespeare, Dombrovsky addressed such problems of the totalitarian regime as censorship, cruelty and despotism of power from a relatively “safe” distance – the age of Shakespeare. The author notes the presence of a special situation of double dialogue in “Shakespearean text” by Yuri Dombrovsky: the dialogue is conducted through the Shakespearean era with the contemporary writer’s reality, power and culture. The article proves the similarity of Dombrovsky as a biographical author with the Shakespeare he portrayed, and notes the presence of common features in both writers (sacralization of creativity, impulsive character, addiction to alcohol, epileptic seizures, etc.). The conducted research allows us to conclude that Dombrovsky, attempting a dialogue with the monologue-authoritarian power, finds a voice through art, like “his” Shakespeare. Dombrovsky connects the ways of solving the problem of the artist and power with art as the only way to build a dialogue in the conditions of totalitarianism – not so much with the authorities, who are not able to hear it, as with themselves.

This type of research is qualitative research. Bogdan and Taylor (in Moleong, 2015 : 4) said that qualitative is one of the research procedures that analyzes descriptive data in the form of speech or writing and the behavior of the people observed. This research uses the literature method. Educators are professionals who are tasked with planning the learning process, assessing learning outcomes, conducting mentoring and training, and conducting research and community service, especially in tertiary education. Academic qualifications are the minimum level of education an educator must have. Competence as a place of learning in basic and middle education and education in early childhood includes padadogic competence, personal competence, professional potential, and social potential.

In this chapter, the authors focus on the importance of emotion management within the organisation. While they have previously discussed some general issues related to emotion and emotional behaviour in the workplace, it is now time to reflect on how such topics should converge in performance management techniques. Leaders, and managers in general, are required to nurture the people that are part of the organisation, thus somehow recognising the outcomes, results, and accomplishments achieved by an individual, group or organisation. Favouring an organisational culture that takes into account performance as a way to enhance people's efficiency through feedback and training opportunities, managers can improve job satisfaction and limit employees' turnaround, which in turn create a positive workplace for emotion management.

This chapter discusses the experience of a Neurologist with a patient who presented with a history of three bilateral convulsive seizures over a period of several months. The Neurologist started him on an adjunct antiepileptic therapy and he became seizure free. However, the situation changed dramatically after a stable period of twelve months. He started having seizures again and his mother was able to recognize that these seizures were different from those he had had one year earlier. Prolonged video-EEG monitoring confirmed the diagnosis of Non-Epileptic Seizures (NES). The Neurologist then referred the patient to a Clinical Psychologist, who used Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and taught him some techniques to cope with the condition. Eventually, the patient and his family were able to manage the NES better with the help of the psychologist. The patient reported a significant improvement clinically with less frequent NES and they learned how to manage the situation without visiting the Emergency Department.

Clinical Psychologist

This chapter studies the experience of a Clinical Psychologist who has conducted some research with patients with Psychogenic Non-Epileptic Seizures (PNES) but has not worked therapeutically with this patient group. What struck the psychologist was the lack of understanding about the condition, among both patients and clinicians. Anxiety goes hand in hand with uncertainty. As a Psychologist, it can feel overwhelming to identify, make sense of, and address the underlying trauma and difficulties of an illness presenting so physically and so strongly within the body. Hopefully, the continued developments in research and clinical practice will help this patient population receive the help and support that is necessary for their recovery.

The past ten years have seen a spectacular increase in the number of psychologists who have elected to take up the type of work usually referred to as “clinical,” This increase has been most marked in the U.S.A., where now some 25 per cent. of the members of the American Psychological Association are employed in this field, and where Government regulations and training schemes set up under the V.A. (Veterans' Administration) make it almost certain that within a few years clinical psychology will constitute the main field of employment for psychologists (1). In Canada, too, there has been a similar growth, leading to all the problems of registration and certification which are currently being tackled in the United States (2). In this country, while psychologists have occasionally been employed in hospitals for the mentally ill, the development of “clinical psychology” in any formal sense may be said to have started in 1947 with the foundation of the Psychological Department at the Institute of Psychiatry (Maudsley Hospital), one of whose objects was to give a course of training in clinical psychology to graduate students of psychology (7).
