Four composite case examples are presented and discussed as they relate to emotional expression, significant moments in the therapeutic process, and communication using a variety of modalities in music therapy with adults diagnosed with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Building on therapeutic awareness through discussing musical elements, body movement and posture, countertransference, and interactional patterns, the implications of deep emotional connection and processing are approached using primarily nonverbal methods. Composite vignettes from the author’s clinical work demonstrate awareness of these factors in the moment as they impacted the session, therapeutic relationship, and other professionals’ understanding of music therapy in this population. Implications for emotional processing in clinical practice are presented as they relate to the concepts presented in this paper.

During the past several years Dr Harvey has presented seminars on ‘Music and the Brain’ throughout the United States and Canada. In the course of a weekend seminar in 1985 he was, once again, particularly impressed with the power of music to affect individuals in many different ways; musical performances (live and taped) evoked responses as diverse as excitement, tears, loneliness, increases in pulse rate, changes in breathing rate, spontaneous body movement, memory recall and imagery experiences. To understand just how the brain produces both biophysical and psychological responses to music requires a basic understanding of the human brain, the areas of the human personality affected through brain processes, and an awareness of the interactions of musical elements affecting us. In this article Dr Harvey outlines some of the directions of recent research.

La formación inicial y permanente del maestro en Educación Infantil debe ajustarse a los retos educativos actuales respondiendo a las recomendaciones de la Unión Europea en materia competencial y a la necesidad de un modelo global docente. Partiendo de estas premisas, la Xunta de Galicia propuso un Modelo para definir el perfil del maestro en cuatro dimensiones competenciales: educador y guía, miembro de una organización, interlocutor y referente, e investigador e innovador. El objetivo general del presente estudio fue conocer la relevancia que el alumnado otorga a las mismas para su futuro ejercicio. Se empleó una metodología cuantitativa, descriptivo-exploratorio, mediante la aplicación de un cuestionario a 144 estudiantes de 3º y 4º de Grado en Educación Infantil. Las cuatro competencias fueron consideradas altamente relevantes, destacando significativamente Interlocutor y referente (p < .001) y sus subcompetencias (gestión y promoción de valores y convivencia, compromiso personal y ético; y habilidades personales, sociales y relacionales). En conclusión, se puede extraer que el reconocimiento y valoración positiva del alumnado hacia su formación inicial y, con ello, a disponer de un modelo de formación integral repercutirá, no solo en la capacitación adquirida, sino también en su predisposición hacia la búsqueda de mejora continua. The initial and permanent training of the teacher in Early Childhood Education must be adapted to the current educational challenges in response to the recommendations of the European Union in terms of competency and to the need for a global teaching model. Based on this, the Xunta de Galicia proposed a Model to define the teacher’s profile based on four competency dimensions: educator and guide, member of an organization, interlocutor and referent, and researcher and innovator. The general objective of the present study was to know the relevance that students give to them for their future exercise. A quantitative methodology, descriptive-exploratory, was carried out by applying a questionnaire to 144 students from the 3rd and 4th grade of the Degree in Early Childhood Education. The four competencies were considered highly relevant, highlighting significantly Interlocutor and referent (p < .001) and its subcompetences (management and promotion of values and coexistence, personal and ethical commitment; and personal, social and relational skills). It can be concluded that the positive recognition and assessment of the students toward their initial training and, therefore, to have a comprehensive training model will have an impact not only on the training acquired, but also on their predisposition towards the search for continuous improvement.

Currently, social networks have a great potential in the educational field, being useful to promote motivation, the active role of students, communication or flexibility in time and space, among others. In this line, this paper shows an experience of educational innovation in higher education mediated by the use of social networks. Specifically, the social network Instagram was used with students in the second year of the Early Childhood Education Degree at the University of Jaen. The objective of this study was to analyze the impact of the use of social networks on aspects related to the quality of the educational process, such as motivation, creativity, communication or monitoring. In order to respond to the proposed objective, a quantitative methodology was used, with a descriptive method and a survey design. The data collection instrument was a student questionnaire through which the impact of the use of the social network Instagram in the teaching-learning process was evaluated. The results point to a positive effect of the use of social networks on the variables under study. It should be noted how the use of this social network has influenced the motivation towards their learning and the communication processes that were developed with all those involved.

The seventh chapter focuses on the functional interplay between passages of narration that interplay with the different modes of discourse presentation. It shows how this interplay is linguistically realized in 19th-century fiction and which functional potential it has for narrative progression and characterization. The discussion focuses on (a) the lexico-grammatical variety of reporting verbs that accompany direct and indirect forms of speech, writing, and thought presentation; (b) paralinguistic narration describing mime, gesture, and body movement as well as moments of silence; and (c) foregrounded occurrences of passages of visual narration and discourse presentation. With particular grammatical, syntactic, and pragmatic patterns priming narrative stretches, readers are able to identify them and use them as anchor points for the processing of the narrative in general. Via recourse to quantitative methodology such as the identification of keywords, the chapter further presents some conclusions about particular 19th-century strategies of world creation.

Psychomotricity is one of the foundations in child development, a science that unites the body in movement and mental activity, admits a translation that relates body movement and its intentionality, studies human development in all phases. In this sense, this article aims to understand psychomotricity and adversities in early childhood education, to recognize the relationship between body and mind, and the importance of psychomotor development since childhood. In order to promote and achieve a deeper study on psychomotricity in early childhood education, this research took place in a bibliographic way through studies by authors dealing with the theme. The authors who guided this research were Duprê (1862-1921), Wallon (1879-1962) and Le Boulch (1981), who report the contexts and challenges of psychomotricity for a better development in human life. The results of the present study brought deeper reflections regarding the knowledge of the psychomotricity investigation process and the adversities in early childhood education.
