Getting to the heart of clinical supervision: a theoretical review of the role of emotions in professional development

Background The importance of supervision is increasingly recognized, yet it remains little understood, impairing research and practice. Specifically, the CBT supervision model provides a relatively “heartless” account of professional development, which may undermine its effectiveness. Method A theoretical review of emotions in supervision and learning is provided, to summarize relevant theoretical and empirical literature. The objectives are to clarify the role of emotions in CBT supervision, and to use this understanding to outline an emotionally-attuned model, illustrating its application to two critical aspects of CBT supervision (the development of a learning alliance and enhancing professional competence). Conclusion The reviewed literature (theory and research evidence) supports the explicit and systematic incorporation of emotions into CBT supervision. Conceptually, this can be achieved by integrating Lazarus's (1991) general theory of emotion with the CBT model. The illustrations of this augmented model indicate its value in understanding and managing both the “rupture-repair” cycle that can affect the supervisory alliance, and the “deskilling-development” pattern that appears to be necessary for the acquisition of competence. We propose that CBT supervision might usefully be guided by our expanded model, as this affords greater internal consistency and may be more effective educationally

Copyright @ 2009 Elsevier B.V.Video summarisation techniques aim to abstract the most significant content from a video stream. This is typically achieved by processing low-level image, audio and text features which are still quite disparate from the high-level semantics that end users identify with (the ‘semantic gap’). Physiological responses are potentially rich indicators of memorable or emotionally engaging video content for a given user. Consequently, we investigate whether they may serve as a suitable basis for a video summarisation technique by analysing a range of user physiological response measures, specifically electro-dermal response (EDR), respiration amplitude (RA), respiration rate (RR), blood volume pulse (BVP) and heart rate (HR), in response to a range of video content in a variety of genres including horror, comedy, drama, sci-fi and action. We present an analysis framework for processing the user responses to specific sub-segments within a video stream based on percent rank value normalisation. The application of the analysis framework reveals that users respond significantly to the most entertaining video sub-segments in a range of content domains. Specifically, horror content seems to elicit significant EDR, RA, RR and BVP responses, and comedy content elicits comparatively lower levels of EDR, but does seem to elicit significant RA, RR, BVP and HR responses. Drama content seems to elicit less significant physiological responses in general, and both sci-fi and action content seem to elicit significant EDR responses. We discuss the implications this may have for future affective video summarisation approaches

Entwicklung und Vergleich von Zugdispositionsstrategien für großskalige Eisenbahnnetzwerksimulationen in SUMO

Es wurde ein heuristischer Algorithmus für die betriebliche Disposition in einer großskaligen Eisenbahnnetzsimulation in SUMO (Simulation of Urban Mobility) entwickelt. Zwei Konflikttypen, Bahnhofskonflikte und Auffahrkonflikte, mit unterschiedlichen Erkennungs- und Lösungsalgorithmiken wurden definiert und implementiert. Algorithmische Parameter wurden eingeführt und anschließend variiert, um durch einen Vergleich des resultierenden Verspätungsverhaltens geeignete Parameterwerte zu ermitteln. Die Vergleiche wurden mittels eines Modells durchgeführt, das einen Teil des deutschen Eisenbahnnetzes abbildet, wobei der Fahrplan auf dem Zielfahrplan des Deutschlandtaktes basiert. Es wurde festgestellt, dass das Parameterkollektiv, welches während der Entwicklung als standardmäßig festgelegt wurde, für die weitere Implementierung als geeignet angesehen werden kann, auch wenn weitere Studien erforderlich sind, um beobachtete Streuungen im Verspätungsverhalten zu untersuchen

دور القضاء الدولي الجنائي في مكافحة الجريمة الدولية

إن فكرة العدالة الجنائية الدولية لم ينتبه لها العالم إلاّ بعد مراحل عديدة وصولا إلى إنشاء المحكمة الجنائية الدولية عام 1998، أين تم تقنين الجرائم الدولية، هاته الآلية تعتبر كأول محكمة جنائية دولية دائمة منشأة بموجب معاهدة دولية، من أجل وضع حد للإفلات من العقاب وممارسة إختصاصها على المجرمين الدوليين ومكافحة الجريمة الدولية

السلطة التنظيمية لرئيس الجمهورية في التشريع الجزائري

الملخص: أقرّ المؤسس الدستوري الجزائري لرئيس الجمهورية وفقا للمادة 125/01 من تعديل دستور 1996 و التي تقابلها المادة 143 من التعديل الدستوري لسنة 2016 بصلاحية ممارسة السلطة التنظيمية في المسائل غير المخصصة للقانون ، مانحا له بذلك مجالا واسعا غير محدود يمارس من خلاله اختصاصه التنظيمي ، وبالمقابل حصر المؤسس مجال البرلمان عن طريق تحديد الميادين التي تعود له في المادتين 122 و 123 من تعديل دستور1996 والتي تقابلها المادتين 140 و 114 من التعديل الدستوري لسنة 2016 و مواد متفرقة منهما ، و هو ما جعل السلطة التنظيمية آلية دستورية مدعمة لمركز رئيس الجمهورية في مواجهة البرلمان في مجال صنع القانون بالمفهوم الواسع . هذا و منح الدستور لرئيس الجمهورية كل الوسائل الدستورية التي يستطيع من خلالها السيطرة و التشريع حتى في المجال المحصور للبرلمان، الشيء الذي يعود بالإيجاب على السلطة التنظيمية، و يعطي لرئيس الجمهورية أهمية كبيرة و امتيازا قويا في مجال صنع القانون حتى بمفهومه الضيق. و لما كان للسلطة التنظيمية المستقلة مجالا خاصا و مستقلا عن القانون فإن كليهما يخضعان لرقابة المجلس الدستوري ) وفقا للمادة 165 من تعديل دستور 1996و المادة 186 من التعديل الدستوري لسنة 2016 في حالة تعديهما على مجال الآخر ، ما يجعل هذا الأخير حاميا لمجال السلطة التنظيمية من تجاوز القانون لمجاله ، و في نفس الوقت مراقبا للتنظيمات من تعديها على مجال القانون الوارد على سبيل الحصر. Le résumé Le constituant algérien a attribué au Président de la République un domaine réglementaire (l’article 125\01 de la modification constitution de 1996 et l’article 143 de modification constitution de 2016) . Ainsi donc ce dernier peut exercer ses attributions dans un domaine très vaste. D’autre part, le constituant a limité les attributions du pouvoir Législatif (les articles 122 et 123 de la modification constitution de 1996 et les articles 140 et 141 de la modification constitution 2016 et d’autres articles répartis dans la constitution). Ainsi donc le président de la république se trouve dans une position favorable par rapport au parlement. Cette position est réconfortée aussi par le rôle du président de la république dans l’élaboration des lois. Vu que le pouvoir réglementaire a son propre domaine de la loi, il est soumis donc au contrôle du conseil constitutionnel (selon l’article 165 de la modification constitution 1996 et l’article 186 de la modification constitution 2016) en cas d’empiétement sur un autre domaine, ce qui permet à ce dernier de protéger le pouvoir réglementaire indépendant du dépassement de la loi, et en même temps de contrôler les règlements des empiétements sur le domaine de la loi. Abstract: According to Article 125 \ 01 of the change constitution in 1996 and the article 143 of the change constitution in 2016 as amended and supplemented, the Algerian constitutional constituent has approved regulatory authority for the president of the republic in the matters not relating to law, thus giving him an unlimited wide range for the practice of his regulatory competence. On the other hand, the constituent has limited the parliament area through identifying the Domains that belong to him in Articles 122 and 123in the change constitution in 1996 and in articles 140 and 141 of the change constitution in 2016 and others miscellaneous in the constitution, this what makes regulatory authority a constitutional mechanism supportive for the status of the president of the republic to confront the parliament in the domain of law making in its broad sense. In addition, the change constitution has given the president of the republic all constitutional means through which he can dominate and legislate even in the specific area in parliament, something which positively effects the regulatory authority, and Thus gives the president of the republic a great importance and a strong franchise in the domain of law-making even in its narrow sense. In view of the fact that the independent regulatory authority has an and a specific domain independent from law, both of them are subject to the constitutional council control (under Article 165 of the change constitution in 1996 and the article 186 of the change constitution in2016) in case of an encroachment on others' domain, which makes this latter a protector of the regulatory authority domain from the overtaking of the law, at the same time to control the regulations encroachment on the domain of law cited
