Hypnosis applies and strengthens a child's naturally enhanced ability to focus his or her concentration and imagination to change symptoms, physiology, and behavior. This field of naturalistic psychology is supported both experimentally and clinically. It can be incorporated into all clinical encounters, increasing therapeutic rapport, the young person's self-esteem, and efficiency. It is most effective when introduced before fearful responses become conditioned, and it can reduce the amount of medication required for relief of symptoms. This capacity can grow with the child, allowing him or her to approach future challenges with equanimity. It has been said, "All hypnosis is not therapy, but all therapy is hypnosis."30 Hypnosis training teaches us the sensitivity to language, to our patients' states of awareness, and to the power of our own positive expectancy and rapport that underlies what we call the "art of medicine."

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is behavioral, usually detected from the age of 7, with a chronic nature, presenting difficulties of sustained attention, working memory, inhibition and self-regulation processes, cognitive flexibility, among others, interfering not only in academic performance but causing self-esteem problems, depression and anxiety in the child or adolescent. A support application was developed in the treatment of children with ADHD that integrate occupational and multisensory activities to stimulate their cognitive-behavioral development. It was implemented by applying an evolutionary development model, using several of the T.I. more current such as JavaScript, HTML5, CSS, PHP and MySQL. The results in children are encouraging when comparing the evaluation of their initial diagnosis before starting treatment, with those obtained after ten months of using the application. It was possible to capture and focus the children's attention, favoring memory, attention and teamwork, as well as a substantial improvement in their mood, motivation, relaxation and behavior.

We examined how compassion can alleviate employees' negative emotions, behaviors, and thoughts. On the basis of self-regulatory resources theory, we hypothesized that there would be relationships between the 2 mediating variables of self-esteem and self-efficacy, and the dependent variables of anxiety, burnout, workplace deviance, and intention to quit. We collected data on these variables from 284 nurses, who work in a stressful job that necessitates compassion from colleagues, to test our theoretical model. The results revealed that compassion alleviated negative emotions (anxiety and burnout), behavior (workplace deviance), and thoughts (intention to quit), with both self-esteem and self-efficacy having mediating effects. Thus, we demonstrated the specific path through which compassion can have positive effects on an organization's employees. We discuss the observed relationship between compassion and self-regulation, and theoretical contributions regarding differences between self-esteem and self-efficacy, as well as between anxiety and burnout.

The term self-regulation (SR) refers to a set of specific cognitive skills necessary for students to independently manage, monitor, and assess their own academic learning and behavior. Students with and at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) often lack these skills. This article provides educators with step-by-step procedures and information on three research- or evidence-based SR strategies they can implement in their classrooms: self-regulated strategy development, self-monitoring, and strategy instruction.

The problem of moral behavior experience for adolescents is quite sharp. The difficulty of moral behavior experience for older adolescents involves the separation in the pedagogical reality the phenomenon ‘moral behavior experience’ and its component clarification. Some issues of adolescents’ moral behavior allowed us to define our own concept ‘moral behavior experience’ as a system of conscious actions and deeds, formed in the process of acquiring knowledge about morality, moral norms, acquiring skills for their practice usage and skills of moral actions by emotional and volitional efforts. The article clarifies the component structure in the organization of moral behavior experience for older adolescents. Its clarification is necessary for understanding the process of moral behavior experience development. The paper identifies the components of moral behavior experience for older adolescents: motivational and valuable, cognitive and interesting, practical and active, personal and reflexive ones. The article describes each component separately in details. In the work the structure of moral behavior experience for older adolescents are characterized with the following components. The motivational and valuable component is represented by motivation, interest, values, moral feelings and attitudes, moral beliefs. The cognitive and interesting component is represented by knowledge of moral norms and behavior rules. The practical and active component is represented by personal ability to communicate, leadership, behavioral self-regulation. The personal and reflexive component is represented by personal traits, reflection, personal moral qualities, self-esteem and self-analysis in moral behavior. In the article the prospects of determining pedagogical conditions for moral behavior experience for older adolescents are clarified to prevent and avoid bullying. Undoubtedly, the elucidation of the component composition in the structure of the experience of moral behavior is necessary to understand the process of its formation. In the work in the structure of the experience of moral behavior of older adolescents, the following components were identified: motivational-value component (motivation, interest, values, moral feelings, relationships, moral beliefs); cognitive component (knowledge of moral norms and rules of conduct); practical-activity component (personality's ability to communicate, leadership, self-regulation of behavior), personality-reflexive component (personality traits, reflection, moral qualities of personality, self-esteem and self-analysis of moral behavior).
