It is meant to be both a guide to using the text and a handy reference, filled with numerous teaching aids and ideas for enlivening classroom presentations. Whether novice or expert, each instructor should be able to select material from these resources to suit his or her needs. ORGANIZATION OF THIS MANUAL The Chapters. This manual contains eighteen chapters that correspond to the textbook chapters. Each chapter in the manual is filled with teaching suggestions and resources designed to enhance teaching and learning. CHAPTER-BY-CHAPTER ORGANIZATION Chapter Outlines Chapter outlines are one of the most important features in any Instructor’s Manual. The outlines in this manual are very detailed and highlight critical information for student mastery. Instructors can follow the outlines and be assured that they will cover all the key material in each chapter, or instructors can edit the outlines to accommodate their own teaching objectives. Learning Objectives Learning objectives, intended to aid students’ mastery of essential facts and concepts, appear in both the Instructor’s Resource Manual and the student Study Guide; text pages corresponding to the objectives are also identified. In addition, multiple-choice questions in the Test Bank are keyed to the learning objectives. This interactive approach to learning is unique and designed to maximize students’ understanding of text material. Classroom Topics for Lecture and Discussion At least three topics for classroom lectures and discussions are given in each chapter. We have chosen topics that are current, complex, and interesting to students—ones we hope will encourage them to connect abstract principles and theories to their daily lives. Also, throughout the chapters we have added topics that allow students to think clinically and make differential diagnoses. Internet annotations are included to support key topics in this section. These Internet annotations will allow you to have the most current information on a specific topic, thus enhancing your lectures. Classroom Demonstrations Every chapter contains at least three classroom demonstrations, selected for their ability to draw students into many of the issues and challenges confronting abnormal psychology. Many of the demonstrations come with handouts that can easily be removed from the perforated manual and copied for classroom use. Internet annotations for the classroom demonstrations are also included in this section. These Internet annotations will allow you to have the most current information on the specific demonstration, thus enhancing your effectiveness. Selected Readings A list of selected readings is supplied in each chapter to support text material and classroom discussions. The lists comprise many articles and books dealing with important issues in abnormal psychology. Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved. vi Preface Video Resources An annotated list of films and tapes, dealing with high-interest topics in abnormal psychology, completes each chapter of the Instructor’s Manual. Instructors can use these resources to support classroom presentations or as discussion starters. On the Internet Information is provided about web addresses for Internet sites related to abnormal psychology. Internet addresses are listed, with annotations about sites to visit for general topics presented in the chapter. ADDITIONAL ANCILLARIES AVAILABLE Supplements for Instructors New!

  • Positive Emotion Dispositions Differentially Associated with Big Five Personality and Attachment Style
    The Journal of Positive Psychology, April 2006; 1(2): 61–71 Positive emotion dispositions differentially associated with Big Five personality and attachment style MICHELLE N. SHIOTA, DACHER KELTNER, & OLIVER P. JOHN University of California at Berkeley, USA Abstract Although theorists have proposed the existence of multiple distinct varieties of positive emotion, dispositional positive affect is typically treated as a unidimensional variable in personality research. We present data elaborating conceptual and empirical differences among seven positive emotion dispositions in their relationships with two core personality constructs, the ‘‘Big Five’’ and adult attachment style. We found that the positive emotion dispositions were differentially associated with self- and peer-rated Extraversion, Conscientiousness, Agreeableness, Openness to Experience, and Neuroticism. We also found that different adult attachment styles were associated with different kinds of emotional rewards. Findings support the theoretical utility of differentiating among several dispositional positive emotion constructs in personality research.

Detroit Timber & Lumber Co., 200 U. S. 321, 337. SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES Syllabus SHELBY COUNTY, ALABAMA v. HOLDER, ATTORNEY GENERAL, ET AL. CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT No. 12–96. Argued February 27, 2013—Decided June 25, 2013 The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was enacted to address entrenched racial discrimination in voting, “an insidious and pervasive evil which had been perpetuated in certain parts of our country through unremitting and ingenious defiance of the Constitution.” South Carolina v. Kat- zenbach, 383 U. S. 301, 309. Section 2 of the Act, which bans any “standard, practice, or procedure” that “results in a denial or abridgement of the right of any citizen . to vote on account of race or color,” 42 U. S. C. §1973(a), applies nationwide, is permanent, and is not at issue in this case. Other sections apply only to some parts of the country. Section 4 of the Act provides the “coverage formula,” de- fining the “covered jurisdictions” as States or political subdivisions that maintained tests or devices as prerequisites to voting, and had low voter registration or turnout, in the 1960s and early 1970s.

    The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders Diagnostic criteria for research World Health Organization Geneva The World Health Organization is a specialized agency of the United Nations with primary responsibility for international health matters and public health. Through this organization, which was created in 1948, the health professions of some 180 countries exchange their knowledge and experience with the aim of making possible the attainment by all citizens of the world by the year 2000 of a level of health that will permit them to lead a socially and economically productive life. By means of direct technical cooperation with its Member States, and by stimulating such cooperation among them, WHO promotes the development of comprehensive health services, the prevention and control of diseases, the improvement of environmental conditions, the development of human resources for health, the coordination and development of biomedical and health services research, and the planning and implementation of health programmes. These broad fields of endeavour encompass a wide variety of activities, such as developing systems of primary health care that reach the whole population of Member countries; promoting the health of mothers and children; combating malnutrition; controlling malaria and other communicable diseases including tuberculosis and leprosy; coordinating the global strategy for the prevention and control of AIDS; having achieved the eradication of smallpox, promoting mass immunization against a number of other
