The document summarizes a research study that examined the effects of group therapeutic art projects on reducing sexual trauma in sexually abused children aged 6-12. 30 participants were divided into an experimental group that underwent art therapy and a control group. Pre- and post-tests using the Sexual Assault Symptom Scale found a significant reduction in reported trauma for the experimental group compared to the control group. This suggests that group art therapy may help rehabilitate sexually abused children by giving them an outlet to express difficult emotions and experiences. However, the study also noted some limitations and room for improvement in intervention tools. Overall, the research provides tentative evidence that therapeutic art projects in a group setting can help decrease symptoms of trauma in sexually abused youth.

This study was conducted to examine childhood abused victims' quality of life before treatment, and after treatment. A multimodal psychodynamic group concept was used to treat 138 patients for an average of 80.4 days. In order, to properly develop a comparison, clinical examiners interviewed each patient before the start to their in-patient program to diagnose each individual, and have therapy goals for them. The questionnaires that were used to measure quality of life targeted the patient's social life health, general health, emotional and physical functioning. The patients were all re-assessed after one year had passed by, to examine any changes in their quality of life. It was revealed that the patients' mental quality of life had improved by more than one standard deviation. Their physical quality of life improved just less than one standard deviation.

In this article, a previous study was mentioned in which childhood abuse survivors were treated for 20 sessions. The authors of this article agreed that 20 sessions of treatment for childhood abuse survivors isn't enough for them to develop a secure attachment to the group. This study explores whether childhood abuse victims can benefit from treatment by being treated for a longer period. Seven group members of ages 23-55 were treated for 52 sessions, over a period of 13 months. All of the members in this group are women, and they had all been sexually abused in their childhood by a family member. They followed a psychodynamic, time-limited closed group therapy, in which they all benefited somewhat. However, many of the members expressed anxiety of leting go, and not being able to move on after the group ended.

Dr. Chan developed a medication that she hypothesizes will reduce .docxjacksnathalie
Dr. Chan developed a medication that she hypothesizes will reduce the obsessive thinking in individuals with paraphilias. A colleague suggests they also examine the effect of the medication on sexual arousal. She needs to demonstrate the efficacy of this medication. She obtains permission to recruit subjects from databanks of known sex offenders. Thirty-five people agree who met diagnostic criteria for a paraphila agreed to participate and she gives them a six-month supply of the medication and instructs them to take one pill each morning. After six-months, the subjects return to the clinic. Only thirty return and she cannot locate the other two. She finds twenty other subjects through counselor referrals. They serve as the control group and do not receive the medication. Dr. Chan tests both groups of participants on physiological measures of sexual arousal in the presences of paraphilic stimuli. She also has participants record their thoughts into a digital recorder and journal throughout the day when having thoughts of a sexual nature involving paraphilic stimuli. She finds that the subjects who took the medication showed less sexual arousal in response to the stimuli than the control group. The researcher and her colleagues conclude that the medication is effective for the obsessive thinking and arousal in individuals with paraphilias.
Dr. Chan and her colleagues, encouraged by the original findings, decided to conduct the experiment using a double-blind procedure. Which of the following would be consistent with using a double-blind procedure? (Points : 1)
Avoid telling the participants that the medication is supposed to stop obsessive thinking.
Add a control group of individuals who do not have paraphilias and give them the medication.
Add a group of individuals who meet diagnostic criteria for paraphilias who are given a placebo and ensure that neither the participants nor those administering the post-tests and evaluating the audio and written journals know who is in the mdication group and who is in the control group.
Use the same design as in the original study but tell the subjects that the medicatio nis supposed to help a symptom other than obsessive thinking, such as mood.

1. What is the question the authors are asking?
They asked about a reduction in judgmental biases regarding the cost and probability associated with adverse social events as they are presumed as being mechanisms for the treatment of Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD). Also, the authors poised on the changes in judgmental biases as mechanisms to explain cognitive-behavioral therapy for social anxiety disorder. On top of that, they stated that methodological limitations extant studies highlight the possibility that rather than causing symptom relief, a significant reduction in judgmental biases tends to be consequences of it or correlate. Considerably, they expected cost bias at mid-treatment to be a predictor of the treatment outcome.
2. Why do the authors believe this question is important?
According to the authors, this question was relevant as methodological limitations of present studies reflect on the possibility that instead of causing symptom belief, a significant reduction in judgmental biases can be consequences or correlated to it. Additionally, they ought to ascertain the judgment bias between treated and non-treated participants. Significantly, this was important as they had to determine the impact of pre and post changes in cost and probability of the treatment outcomes. But, probability bias at mid-treatment was a predictor of the treatment outcome contrary to the cost bias at mid-treatment that could not be identified as a significant predictor of the treatment outcome.
3. How do they try to answer this question?
They conducted a study to evaluate the significant changes in judgmental bias as aspects of cognitive-behavioral therapy for social anxiety disorders. To do this, they conducted a study using information from two treatment studies; an uncontrolled trial observing amygdala activity as a response to VRE (Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy) with the use of functional magnetic resonance imaging and a randomized control trial that compared Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy with Exposure Group Therapy for SAD. A total of 86 individuals who met the DSM-IV-TR criteria for the diagnosis of non-generalized (n=46) and generalized (n=40) SAD participated. After completing eight weeks of the treatment protocol, the participants who identified public speaking as their most fearsome social situation were included. The SCID (Structured clinical interview for the DSM-IV) was used to ascertain diagnostic and eligibility status on Axis 1 conditions within substance abuse, mood and anxiety disorder modules. The social anxiety measures were measured with the use of BFNE (Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation), a self-reporting questioner that examined the degree to which persons fear to be assessed by other across different social settings. Additionally, the OPQ (Outcome Probability Questionnaire) self-reporting questionnaire was used to evaluate individual’s estimate on the probability that adverse, threatening events will occur at t ...

What is your research question?
My research question is “Does stress reduction efficacy vary between relaxation response treatment and mindfulness-based programs for female undergraduate students between the ages of 18-25?”
The research question is important because previous studies have only provided empirical evidence demonstrating the efficacy of each method on its own and a comparison of the methods within other controlled populations. Research has investigated the effects of these stress-reduction methods within specific subgroups of the population, but not within the population that is targeted in this study. It is also important because
the majority of research has focused on the effects of stress-reduction techniques on medical students, healthcare professionals, and undergraduate pr.
INDIVIDUAL EMOTION RECOGNITION AND SUBGROUP ANALYSIS FROM PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL...sipij
This study involves intra- and inter-individual emotion classifications from psychophysiological signals and subgroup analysis on the influence of gender and age and their interaction on the emotion recognition. Individual classifications are conducted using a selection of feature optimization, classification and evaluation approaches. The subgroup analysis is based on the inter-individual classification. Emotion
elicitation is conducted using standardized pictures in the Valence-Arousal-Dominance dimensions and affective states are classified into five different category classes. Advantageous intra-individual rates are obtained via multi-channel classification and the respiration best contributes to the recognition. High interindividual variances are obtained showing large variability in physiological responses between the
subjects. Classification rates are significantly higher for women than for men for the 3-category-class of Valence. Compared to old subjects, young subjects have significantly higher rates for the 3-category-class and 2-category-class of Dominance. Moreover, young men’s classification performed the best among the other subgroups for the 5-category-class of Valence/Arousal.

Studies of emotion regulation typically contrast two or more strategies (e.g., reappraisal vs. suppression)
and ignore variation within each strategy. To address such variation, we focused on cognitive reappraisal
and considered the effects of goals (i.e., what people are trying to achieve) and tactics (i.e., what
people actually do) on outcomes (i.e., how affective responses change). To examine goals, we randomly
assigned participants to either increase positive emotion or decrease negative emotion to a negative
stimulus. To examine tactics, we categorized participants’ reports of how they reappraised. To examine
reappraisal outcomes, we measured experience and electrodermal responding. Findings indicated that (a)
the goal of increasing positive emotion led to greater increases in positive affect and smaller decreases
in skin conductance than the goal of decreasing negative emotion, and (b) use of the reality challenge
tactic was associated with smaller increases in positive affect during reappraisal. These findings suggest
that reappraisal can be implemented in the service of different emotion goals, using different tactics. Such
differences are associated with different outcomes, and they should be considered in future research and
applied attempts to maximize reappraisal success.
Researchers have identified many types of emotion regulation
strategies (e.g., cognitive reappraisal, expressive suppression;
Gross & Thompson, 2007). Contrasting these strategies has led to
important insights about differences among emotion regulatory
processes (Dillon, Ritchey, Johnson, & LaBar, 2007; Goldin,
McRae, Ramel, & Gross, 2008; Gross, 1998; Hayes et al., 2010;
Sheppes & Meiran, 2007) but has deemphasized the variability that
exists within any given strategy, such as those occasioned by
differing goals (i.e., what people are trying to achieve) or tactics
(i.e., what people actually do).
One promising target for examining within-strategy variation is
cognitive reappraisal, which refers to altering emotions by chang-
ing the way one thinks. Successful reappraisal influences many
aspects of emotional responding, including self-reported negative
affect (Gross, 1998), peripheral physiology (Jackson, Malmstadt,
Larson, & Davidson, 2000; Ray, McRae, Ochsner, & Gross, 2010),
and neural indicators of emotional arousal (Hajcak & Nieuwen-
huis, 2006; Ochsner et al., 2004; Urry et al., 2006). However, there

1. What is the question the authors are asking They asked abo.docxpaynetawnya
1. What is the question the authors are asking?
They asked about the relation between self-focused attention and interpersonal consequences of the social anxiety. Also, how the interpersonal interaction will influence the social anxiety. On top of that, they hypothesized in their study, the control group will show increased uncomfortable sign while& after the interpersonal activities,, like the less verbal speaking and more protective body language. Also, they expected the control group will show more negative effect and fairly low in positive effect after the study.
2. Why do the authors believe this question is important?
Because they have found people have agreement on the positive relation between the anxiety arousal and the shown anxiety symptoms, also the interaction and social anxiety. But, the relation and function of how the self- focused attention will trigger and influence the social anxiety when interpersonal activity happens.
3. How do they try to answer this question?
They conducted a study to testify whether the interpersonal activity will influence or trigger the social anxiety. In order to do that, they collected 120 participants after they have these participants did SPAI, the ones who got highest and lowest 20 percentile scores people have been selected as the SA group, which means they have shown the possibility of being diagnosed as social phobia patients. And the rest of the 120p people will consist of the NSA group, which names after the people who do not have any social phobia symptom when having interpersonal interaction. After having them grouped, they will be paired as dyads automatically, the SA with NSA, or the NSA with NSA. But, they are not informed their identity in this study. Then, each group will have 5 minutes session to interact with the other one, they will be video recorded at the same time they started the session, and there will be people who spectate their verbal code and nonverbal code when the recording started. Each codes represent different “behavior” of participant, for the verbal code, we have RS, ES,Q,ST AND GT for information sharing. RS is for complaining and support words said by participants, ES specifies the empathetic comments, ST represents the information shared about participant themselves, GT means the sharing information that unrelated to participants themselves. Same to nonverbal codes, we have polite smile, pleasurable smile, frown, the fidgeting hand position. After the 5 minutes session with each other, the researchers will have participants to do 2 questionnaires, PANAS and QI, one for detecting the PA and NA level of participants before and after the study, one for checking the level of satisfaction of the just finished interaction.
4. What did they find?
They found out the results not exactly same as they predicted, like for the level of NA in SA- NSA group, it did not have a significantly rising after the session is ended, either to the questions asked in the session, SA ...

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of
group therapeutic art project in reducing sexual trauma in
sexually abused children. The researchers used two matched
group designs. Thirty participants aged 6 to 12 were purposely
divided into Experimental and Controlled Group. Sexual Assault
Symptom Scale was used as pre and post-test while T test to
analyze the results of the experiment and to determine the
effectiveness of group therapeutic art project. It is hypothesized
that group therapeutic art project do not rehabilitate the sexually
abused children. The result of the study conducted and
supported the hypothesis, making the statement that there is no
effect in reducing sexual trauma using group therapeutic art
project.
3. Group Therapeutic Art Project
involves a Holistic approach in that it
only addresses emotional and
cognitive issues but also enhances
social, physical and developmental
growth. Various studies have
demonstrated the efficacy of group
therapeutic art project to help with
the immediate discharge of tension
and simultaneously minimize anxiety
levels of sexually abused children
who have common behavioral
symptoms found include irritability,
frequent soiling, nightmares, suicide
attempts and confusion about sexual
boundaries.
4. A child sexually abused is recognized
as having a traumatic experience
that can have a number of adverse
effects. Sexually abused children
generally reveal significant problems
in diverse areas of functioning
including those of affect, behavior,
cognition and interpersonal
relationships. (Collier, & Parillo,
2008; Gardner, 2007; Mazza, 2009).
Therefore, children may experience
difficulties in integrating the
experience of abuse and processing
it emotionally and cognitively due to
developmental immaturity (Ryan
2010). Difficulties associated with
the treatment of sexually abused
children relate to their inability to
verbalize their emotions and
thoughts generated by the abuse.
5. Art therapy can be beneficial
to people of all ages, but it is
especially useful for children.
Art is a natural form of
communication for children
because it is easier for the
children to express
themselves visually rather
than verbally. This is
particularly true for children
who have experienced
sexual trauma. Members of
the American Art Therapy
Association hope that this
information will give those
working with traumatized
children and their families a
greater understanding of
how art therapy can be used
to support trauma recovery.
6. The Rehabilitation through
Group Therapeutic Art Project are
very beneficial for sexually
abused children. Many sexually
abuse crisis centers are based on
crisis theory and supportive
psychotherapy groups. They rely
on dissemination of information,
active listening and emotional
support (Resick et al., 2009).
Group sharing of experience may
affect patients’ numbness,
isolation and fear of isolation.
(Rosenhan et al., 2010) Cryer and
Beutler (2011) found that most
members of the group improved
significantly in measures of fear
and anxiety.
7. Learned Helplessness Theory
Martin Seligman developed
the Learned Helplessness theory,
finding to be psychological condition
in which human being has learned to
act or behave helplessly in a
particular condition. In relation to
the study, the theory was extended
to human behavior concerning the
common behavioral symptoms in
particular to sexually traumatized
children. Children may perceive
events as uncontrollable and
unpredictable, the more stress they
experience, and the less they feel
about making changes in their lives.
8. The researchers’ study had
three purposes. First, it was
designed to determine the
significance of group therapeutic
art project in reducing sexual
trauma. If the therapy reduced
the trauma, then it indicated that
there is relationship between the
two.
Next, is to identify the
effect of group art therapy in

10. Method
Participants
This study had covered thirty
female aged six to twelve years of
age and has a background on sexual
abuse. The said participants came
from Kaisahang Buhay Foundation in
Quezon City. The participants will be
purposively selected. A consent
letter was given to the foundation
through the assistance of the
Director that also educated the
participants about this whole
experiment. Thirty participants were
divided into two groups fifteen for
the Experimental group and fifteen
for the Controlled group.
11. Materials
Sexual Assault Symptoms
Scale was administered to
participants to determine the level
of sexual trauma. The Sexual Assault
Symptom Scale developed by Libby
O. Ruch (1991), it is a self-report
measurement that is relatively brief
and was used to assess initial
symptoms of sexual assault trauma
syndrome. The said test is used in
the evaluation of children who have
experienced traumatic
events, including physical and sexual
assaults, victimization by
peers, major losses, the witnessing
of violence done to others and
natural disasters.
12. Design
This study is based on Martin
Seligman’s Learned Helplessness
Theory that the Sexually Abuse
children has learned to act or behave
helplessly in a particular situation.
The participants were asked to take
the Sexual Assaults Symptom Scale
to determine the level of sexually
abused. Two-group design is used;
the independent variable (sexually
abused) is manipulated in at least
two levels or treatment condition.
One group is controlled group, which
receive the zero value of the
independent variable while the
experimental group, exposed to a
non-zero value of the independent
variable. Both groups are then
measured on the dependent variable
(Group Therapeutic Art Project).
13. Procedure
The researchers used thirty
participants aged 6 to 12 were
purposely divided into Experimental
and Controlled Group. Sexual Assault
Symptom Scale was used as pre-test
to determine the level of sexual
trauma. Group therapeutic art
project was given to experimental
group. Materials such as bond paper,
crayons, and color pens, clay,
colored paper, watercolor and
popsicle sticks was used as a group
therapeutic art project. Then we
used Sexual Assault Symptom Scale
as a post-test. To analyze the results
independent T-test was used and to
determine the effectiveness of group
therapeutic art project.
14. Result
The data were analyzed
with 15 participants who
underwent group therapeutic art
project. Independent T-test was
used; a level of alpha set at 0.5
with a 66 degree of freedom and
had a critical value of 2.048 to
determine the significant effect in
rehabilitation of sexually abused
children through group
therapeutic art project.

17. Note: The alpha set obtained 0.5
level of significance which is
2.048 with degree of freedom of
66. Since the obtained t value of
4.67 is less than the critical value
from the table, this means that
there is a significant effect in
Rehabilitation of Sexually Abused
Children through Group
Therapeutic Art Project, the
hypothesis was rejected.

19. The evidence showed that
there were changes in the
intervention as days went by, for
example, there were few
participants who have done and
followed the instruction correctly
but there were also instances that
they could not figure out what to be
done, as an outcome it did not match
to what has been instructed.
However, the result of Sexual
Assault Symptom Scale proved that
the rest of participants were able to
finish the transformational selfportrait in one week, nevertheless,
even the participants were able to
finish the intervention as early as the
expected time it was not enough to
reduce sexual trauma. The findings
were able to determine that group
therapeutic art is an effective tool to
reduced sexual trauma.
20. Based on the results, it is
recommended to conduct a
different tool such as, workshops
where participants will be
emotionally inclined to deal with
difficult and negative
experiences. Also, a tool that will
increase their awareness of the
previous experience through
exploring inner issues (e.g.
cognitive therapy). In addition,
future researches related to this
study will have a clearer
understanding in dealing with
sexually abused children.
21. The results suggest that this
group therapeutic art project may
improve symptoms of depression
and anxiety. This study is another
building block in the literature on
sexual abuse intervention and it is
hoped that future studies on the
effectiveness of this intervention
for sexually abused children are
performed.
