Anxiety disorders, which often first emerge early in development, are common and challenging to treat, yet the underlying mechanisms have only recently begun to come into focus. Here, we review new insights into the nature and biological bases of dispositional negativity, a fundamental dimension of childhood tem- perament and adult personality and a prominent risk factor for the development of pediatric and adult anxiety disorders. Converging lines of epidemiological, neurobiological, and mech- anistic evidence suggest that dispositional negativity increases the likelihood of psychopathol- ogy via specific neurocognitive mechanisms, including attentional biases to

Smith Analysis of current pastoral care practice, particularly of Christian pastoral care providers and chaplains, reveals a contemporary lacuna in Christian theological frameworks which contributes to North American Christians’ inability to connect a theological understanding of death with the experience of their human finitude despite the presence of considerable literature on death and dying. This gap deprives many Christians of the possibility of finding a unique and specific source of hope and strength within their own faith tradition for facing crisis.

    In the face of fear How fear and anxiety affect our health and society, and what we can do about it CONTENTS Foreword 1 Acknowledgements 2 Executive summary 3 1. Introduction 12 2. What is fear and why is it important? 14 3. The Mental Health Foundation fear survey 21 4. Why are we so fearful? 27 5. What can we do about fear? 37 6. Conclusion 48 Appendix A: Opinium survey 50 In the face of fear Foreword Fear has always been an aspect of human life. Early man would have feared attack by predators, famine, disease and disputes with other communities. Fear would have played a key part in human evolution as many biologists and anthropologists have attested. The truth is fear still plays a key part in our lives. Individually we experience both rational and irrational fears that drive our behaviour and fear also drives communities and social policies. You only have to go to an airport or some inner city housing estates to see fear at work. Fear too is present in our economic crisis as both a driver and an outcome. In the context of mental health our ability to master fear is a key part of resilience and being prey to irrational fears is one of the roots of as well as a result of mental illness. If fear levels in the general population are high more people will experience mental illness and particularly the most common mental illnesses such as anxiety and depression and anxiety disorders. Excessive fear poses an enormous burden on our society directly through anxiety related illness, which can be physical as well as mental, and indirectly through inappropriate behaviours such as excessive supervision of children or failure to invest.

    ISSN 2349-4379 Hidden Gender Violence in the War on Organized Crime in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico (2010-2011)1 Rosalba Robles Ortega Universidad Autónoma de Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mex. [email protected] ABSTRACT Militarization2 in this country – Mexico – is a fundamental factor of political definition due to the loss of life3 that it has represented, and the impact on public life stemming from the constant violation of the human rights of men, but especially for women, who have both seen their everyday life modified. This fight against organized crime, some have defined it as a war against the people, which pretends to be a war on drug trafficking. In Ciudad Juarez, we already know that the presence of the army and police on the streets does not increase safety, and instead, gender violence is exposed in deaths that occur constantly, so that militarization and impunity are the key to reading the new events as part of a hegemonic project, in which the bodies and humanity are no longer relevant.

Morris2, Marc Baker2, Vasudevi Reddy2 and Vittorio Gallese3,4 1 Department of Physiological Sciences, College of Medicine, Alfaisal University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, 2 Department of Psychology, Centre for Situated Action and Communication, University of Portsmouth, Portsmouth, United Kingdom, 3 Section of Human Physiology, Department of Neuroscience, Parma University, Parma, Italy, 4 Institute of Philosophy, School of Advanced Study, University of London, London, United Kingdom So far blushing has been examined in the context of a negative rather than a positive reinforcement where visual displays of a blush were based on subjective measures. The current study used infrared imaging to measure thermal patterns of the face while with the use of a video camera quantified on the visible spectrum alterations in skin color related to a compliment. To elicit a blush a three-phase dialog was adopted ending or starting with a compliment on a female sample (N D 22). When the dialog ended with a compliment results showed a linear increase in temperature for the cheek, and forehead whereas for the peri-orbital region a linear decrease was observed. The compliment phase marked the highest temperature on the chin independent of whether or not the experiment started with a compliment contrary to other facial regions, which did not show a significant change when the experiment started with a compliment.
