The Psychological Restorative Effects of Campus Environments on College Students in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Case Study at Northwest A&F University, Shaanxi, China

During the COVID-19 outbreak, college students experienced different periods of isolation on campus, which has had an impact on students’ mental health. Based on ART theory, this study randomly selected students at Northwest A&F University, Shaanxi, China and distributed questionnaires in order to evaluate the psychological recovery effect of campus environment during the epidemic. The results showed that: (1) There were significant differences in the psychological restoration of four types of campus environments. Blue space had the greatest effect, followed by green space and sports grounds, while grey space had the least. (2) Time of stay had a very significant impact on psychological restoration. Longer time of exposure is not necessarily correlated with a better recovery experience. (3) In the different campus environments, extent is easier to be perceived followed by fascination and compatibility, and the weakest is being away. At the time of stay level, no significant difference was found in the perception of compatibility. Time of stay was negatively correlated with fascination and compatibility. These findings can provide theoretical and practical bases for campus environmental planning and construction following the COVID-19 epidemic.

THE BENEFITS CONFERRED BY MULTI-SPORT PARTICIPATION MAY NOT INCLUDE IMPROVED FUNCTIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL READINESS FOLLOWING INJURY

Background: Multi-sport participation has been advocated for youth as a means to foster athletic development and reduce over-use injury. Whether this sport variety may influence functional and psychological readiness after injury is unclear. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare presentation, and functional and psychological recovery between single sport and multi-sport pediatric athletes following an ACL reconstruction (ACLR). Methods: Following IRB approval, prospectively collected data in consecutive patients treated for ACL injury (1/2015-2/2017) in a pediatric sports medicine clinic was reviewed. Inclusion required primary ACLR. Injury and surgical data, patient reported outcome measures (PROM) including both functional (Pedi-IKDC) and psychological PROM (ACSI-28 and ACL-RSI), functional clearance data (Y balance testing), timing of return to play clearance, and any re-injuries were reviewed. Comparison of multi-sport and single sport athletes was performed using a Kruskal-Wallis test and ANOVA analysis followed by T-tests for multiple comparisons. Results: 81.5% of patients who underwent an ACL reconstruction were single sport athletes. Single sport athletes presented with a higher initial BMI (24.47 ± 5.67 vs 22.45 ± 3.81, p = 0.03) than multi-sport athletes. In this cohort, soccer players (89%) were more likely to be specialized compared to football (61%) or basketball players (69%, p<0.01). No differences between groups were noted regarding surgical procedures or concomitant injuries. While no significant differences were found between the groups in time to functional clearance or clearance scores, it was noted that only ¾ of single sport athletes returned to sports (74.0% vs 92.3%, p = 0.06). Reported confidence in functional and psychological recovery improved in both groups throughout rehabilitation (see Table 1). Multi-sport athletes in this cohort demonstrated no advantage in either phase of recovery. Conclusion: Although multi-sport participation has been established to improve athletic development, and decrease burnout and over-use injury; it may not confer advantages in comparison to the specialized athlete for functional or psychological recovery following ACL reconstruction.

Penerapan Biophilic Design pada Bangunan Unit Pelaksana Teknis Daerah Perlindungan Perempuan dan Anak Kota Bekasi

Title: Application of Biophilic Design in Regional Technical Implementation Unit for the Protection of Women and Children of Bekasi City Based on data from the National Commission for Women and Children in 2019, Bekasi City occupies the second position in the number of cases of violence against women and children after Jakarta. The response that has been done by the Bekasi City Government is to establish the Regional Technical Implementation Unit for the Protection of Women and Children (UPTD PPA) which provides services and psychological recovery for victims. Regarding psychological recovery, researchers agreed that nature plays a major role in the human psychological recovery process. So the design concept of this building is restoration through nature by incorporating natural features in the form of green space into the building. In designing the method applied is through the Biophilic Design approach with 14 Patterns of Biophilic Design as a guide in designing. The results of the research are the application of biophilic design patterns to the landscape, exterior, and interior buildings.

Exploring alternatives for adolescent anorexia nervosa: adolescent and parent treatment (APT) as a novel intervention prospect

Recovery and remission rates of adolescent anorexia nervosa (AN) following Family Based Treatment (FBT) have seen a relative decline over recent years. While reasonably successful in achieving physical recovery (i.e. weight restoration), both empirical and anecdotal accounts highlight a lack of attention to the psychological recovery of the adolescent within manualised FBT. As such, there is a need for innovation to explore treatment variations and alternatives for the proportion of adolescents with AN who do not respond favourably to this first-line treatment. This paper introduces a new treatment framework to the field for clinical consideration and empirical assessment. Adolescent and Parent Treatment (APT) for adolescent AN draws from both family-based and individual treatment models, applying a developmental lens. APT attends to physical and psychological recovery simultaneously and from the start of treatment, with capacity to tailor individual psychological modules to the adolescent formulation. While clearly in its infancy, APT provides an exciting new avenue for exploration within the field, as we seek new avenues to support young people and their families to effectively combat this deadly illness.

Factors inhibiting the psychological recovery process of children in conflict with the law

Psychological assistance is strongly needed in relation to the recovery of the psychological state of children who are in conflict with the law. Semarang City has developed a school-based restorative justice program as a response to such needs. This research aims to explore the factors which could potentially obstruct the psychological recovery process of these children during the implementation of the program. The study adopts a qualitative design through multiple case studies, with the participation of three children and those close to them. The case study data analysis was conducted based on Yin's (2015) techniques, consisting of pattern matching, explanation building, logic models, and cross-case synthesis. The results show that negative support from peers, drug abuse, negative role models, emotional detachment from close friends and relatives, and negative stigma were the factors obstructing the recovery process of the participants. These findings could be essential for practitioners’ design of psychological interventions which are more relevant to the children’s recovery needs.

F. NIETZSCHE’S «BIRTH OF TRAGEDY» IN THE CONTEXT OF MEDICAL DISCOURSE

Как об утрате древними греками веры в богов Аполлона и Диониса. С точки зрения автора статьи, Ницше пришел к выводу, что последствия этой «смерти Бога» привели к необходимости психологического оздоровления людей. Автор статьи утверждает, что можно говорить об оригинальности философии Ницше как автора «Рождения трагедии» и причастности этой философии медицинскому дискурсу The author of the article argues that in «The Birth of Tragedy» F. Nietzsche expresses his reflection on the «death of God» discussing the loss of faith in Apollo and Dionysus by the ancient Greeks. In his opinion, Nietzsche came to the conclusion that the consequences of this «death of God» led to the need for psychological recovery of people. The author of the article claims that it is possible to speak about the originality of Nietzsche's philosophy in the «Birth of Tragedy» and the involvement of his thought in medical discourse
