Walking Children Through a Minefield: How Professionals Experience Exploring Adverse Childhood Experiences

2017

Understanding the challenges of professionals in addressing child adversity is key to improving the detection, protection, and care of exposed children. We aimed to synthesize findings from qualitative studies of professionals’ lived experience of addressing child adversity. Through a systematic search, we identified eight qualitative studies and synthesized them using metaethnography. We generated three themes, “feeling inadequate,” “fear of making it worse,” and “facing evil,” and one overarching metaphor, “walking children through a minefield.” The professionals felt that they lacked the means necessary to explore child adversity, that they were apprehensive of worsening the child’s situ…

Detecting Emotions in Comments on Forums

2014

The paper presents one of the most important issues in Natural Language Processing (NLP), emotion identification and classification to implement a computational technology based on existing resources, open-source or freely available for research purposes. Furthermore, we are interested to use it for establishing Gold standards in sentiment analysis area, such as SentiWordNet. In this sense, we propose to recognize and classify the emotions (sentiments) of the public consumer from the written texts which appeared on the various Forums. We analyse the writing style which refers to how consumers construct sentences together when they write comments to indicate their passion about an entity (pe…

Political Extremism and Rationality

2002

Political extremism is widely considered to be the product of irrational behavior. Originally published in 2002, the distinguishing feature of this collection by well-known economists and political scientists from North America, Europe and Australia is to propose a variety of explanations which all insist on the rationality of extremism. Contributors use variants of this approach to shed light on subjects such as the conditions under which democratic parties take extremist positions, the relationship between extremism and conformism, the strategies adopted by revolutionary movements, and the reasons why extremism often leads to violence. The authors identify four core issues in the study of…

Palliative Care Professionals' Inner Lives: Cross-Cultural Application of the Awareness Model of Self-Care

2021

Compassionate professional qualities traditionally have not received the most attention in either critical or end of life care.

The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the universality of these problems and the need to equip ourselves with rigorously validated measurement and monitoring approaches that allow for unbiased comparisons. The main objective of this study was to offer evidence on the generalizability of the awareness model of self-care across thr…
