Humanity has had a complicated past with its emotions, but the previous century of inquiry has seen remarkable scientific understanding of what emotions are, how they work, and what they do for us. A huge amount of that work has been on emotions as episodes that happen to individuals. So much has been learned on this front, and we applaud this research. We, however, follow a growing trend of looking at how emotions function in groups of animals as a system of communication. This too has been known for a long time, but the novel aspect of our approach is that we provide a quantitative theory of how information is transferred in groups of animals by virtue of their emotions and emotional capacities, like the ability to detect emotion behavior (e.g., fighting something), the ability to detect emotions on the basis of detecting behavior (e.g., fear) and the ability to express emotions in behavior. The theory presented here provides answers to questions about how much information is transferred from one point to another, or through a node in a network, or through an entire layer of a complex network. Although the theory presented here is quantitative, the mathematics involved is not complicated, and we work out many examples along the way. Most chapters end with a sequence of points for further research and a list of references. Being able to put numbers to the information passed in emotion communication opens up entire new vistas of research directions. Evolutionary theory has long been connected to various quantitative measures of information in animal communication systems, so this theory 1 The Information in Emotion Communication Kerr & Scharp ought to mesh well with contemporary evolutionary theory on emotions.1 It supplants the “contagion” theory of emotion transmission, and it subsumes areas of active research like emotion elicitation, emotion expression, and interpersional emotion regulation. Even more important is that a quantitative theory of emotional information is badly needed to combat the vast emotion manipulation occurring online in social media. We know about many of these kinds of manipulations, and the information theory of emotion communication provides one with an array of technological and quantitative tools to detect and combat large-scale emotion manipulation on social media.

  • Self-Worth and Bonding Emotions Are Related to Well-Being in Health-Care
    Weilenmann et al. BMC Medical Education (2021) 21:290 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12909-021-02731-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Self-worth and bonding emotions are related to well-being in health-care providers: a cross-sectional study Sonja Weilenmann1,2* , Ulrich Schnyder2, Nina Keller1,2, Claudio Corda1,2, Tobias R. Spiller1,2, Fabio Brugger1,2, Brian Parkinson3, Roland von Känel1,2 and Monique C. Pfaltz1,2 Abstract Background: Interacting with patients can elicit a myriad of emotions in health-care providers. This may result in satisfaction or put providers at risk for stress-related conditions such as burnout. The present study attempted to identify emotions that promote provider well-being. Following eudaimonic models of well-being, we tested whether certain types of emotions that reflect fulfilment of basic needs (self-worth, bonding with patients) rather than positive emotions in general (as suggested by hedonic models) are linked to well-being. Specifically, we hypothesized that well-being is associated with positive emotions directed at the self, which reflect self-worth, and positive as well as negative emotions (e.g., worry) directed at the patient, which reflect bonding. However, we expected positive emotions directed at an object/situation (e.g., curiosity for a treatment) to be unrelated to well- being, because they do not reflect fulfilment of basic needs. Methods: Fifty eight physicians, nurses, and psychotherapists participated in the study. First, in qualitative interviews, they reported their emotions directed at the self, the patient, or an object/situation during distressing interactions with patients. These emotions were categorised into positive emotions directed towards the self, the patient, and an object/situation, and negative emotions directed towards the patient that reflect bonding.

  • PERSONALITY Personality Not Included
    Early Praise for Personality Not Included “Wow. I devoured Personality Not Included, frequently shouting ‘yes!’ as I followed Rohit’s spot-on analysis of a fundamental truth: being faceless doesn’t work anymore. Per- sonality in both people and companies is what customers get passionate about and drives seemingly unlimited success. This is one of those rare books to purchase by the case so you can give copies to employees and investors. But make sure to keep a few for yourself to read and reread so you don’t miss a thing. Bravo!” —David Meerman Scott, bestselling author of The New Rules of Marketing and PR “Personality Not Included breaks down the old barriers between marketing, advertis- ing, and PR and shows people how to nail the single objective of it all: creating pow- erful conversations with your customers and getting them to choose you over the rest.” —Timothy Ferriss, top blogger and #1 New York Times bestselling author of The 4-Hour Workweek “There are two types of small business owners—ones who know they are in the busi- ness of marketing and those who don’t. For either, Personality Not Included is an eye- opening look at what really matters when it comes to delighting your customers. If you want a guide to being more than ordinary, get this book.” —John Jantsch, award-winning blogger and author of Duct Tape Marketing “Just being pretty isn’t enough anymore, today a brand also needs a strong personal- ity to survive. In PNI, Rohit gives you the techniques and tools to help your brand go from wallflower to social butterfly.” —Laura Ries, bestselling author of 22 Immutable Laws of Branding, and cofounder of Ries & Ries “Finally.

    MELT © Heidi Wicks (Thesis) submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Creative Writing) Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Memorial University of Newfoundland May 2019 St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador MELT A novel by Heidi Wicks 1 Melt shifts between two girls who come of age together during two economically turbulent times - the late ‘90s and present-day - in St. John's, Newfoundland. The women navigate break-ups, tanning beds, spray tans, drifting desires, at least one kid with a raisin up his nose, drunken dancing, infidelity, death, sex in Middle Cove, job loss at the CBC and love loss at the Avalon Mall. Through the pockets of their maddening but beloved city, their friendships and relationships are tested, but their brazen humour and deep- rooted friendship helps them ice-pick through the winter sludge and spring muck and get them through until it’s summer once more. 2 Chapter One “About here?” Cait slices her index finger across the middle of her right thigh, softly. A knife etching a line in butter. “Your father’s not lettin’ you get away with a slit that high.” Tilley Brophy plucks the cigarette from her lips and releases a poof of smoke that curls into the shape of an anchor. She jabs the butt into a heavy crystal ashtray and coughs like her freakin’ lungs are about to vault from her body and splat against her half-brown-carpet, half-brown- wood-panel wall in her house by the Village Mall.

  • National Practices Survey Report 2017
    National Practices Survey Report 2017 A survey of residential service providers for victims of domestic human trafficking Jeanne L. Allert, Editor The Samaritan Women Express permission from The Samaritan Women is required prior to reproduction or distribution of any part of this report. For more information contact: Jeanne L. Allert [email protected] © The Samaritan Women Institute for Shelter Care Section A. Background In 2016, our organization, The Samaritan Women, was gifted with the funds to host a national conference for service providers that offer residential care to victims of domestic sex trafficking. The gathering was held over a four-day period at Wheaton College in Chicago, Illinois in July of that year. Twenty-two agencies were present, and a host of individuals who aspired to get involved in survivor care. From that event, three observations emerged: 1. The majority of those in attendance were the founders of their organizations, many of whom left other occupations to pursue what they felt to be a calling on their lives. All of us had weathered long seasons of feeling alone, crazy, full of doubt, despair, and isolation...and yet we pressed on. It was poignantly clear that this group of pioneers needed the collegiality of this unique gathering. 2. Many of us were having similar experiences and making comparable decisions, but had no baseline against which to measure if we were doing things correctly. To this day there remains no credible, authoritative entity offering guidance (or dare we say, “best practices”) for how this work should be done. 3. The other group of people who attended the 2016 conference were those who were in some stage of envisioning a similar work, or having trouble getting started.

  • Comment Submitted by David Crawley Comment View Document
    Comment Submitted by David Crawley Comment View document: The notion that my social media identifier should have anything to do with entering the country is a shockingly Nazi like rule. The only thing that this could facilitate anyway is trial by association - something that is known to ensnare innocent people, and not work. What is more this type of thing is repugnant to a free society. The fact that it is optional doesn't help - as we know that this "optional" thing will soon become not-optional. If your intent was to keep it optional - why even bother? Most importantly the rules that we adopt will tend to get adopted by other countries and frankly I don't trust China, India, Turkey or even France all countries that I regularly travel to from the US with this information. We instead should be a beacon for freedom - and we fail in our duty when we try this sort of thing. Asking for social media identifier should not be allowed here or anywhere. Comment Submitted by David Cain Comment View document: I am firmly OPPOSED to the inclusion of a request - even a voluntary one - for social media profiles on the I-94 form. The government should NOT be allowed to dip into users' social media activity, absent probable cause to suspect a crime has been committed. Bad actors are not likely to honor the request. Honest citizens are likely to fill it in out of inertia. This means that the pool of data that is built and retained will serve as a fishing pond for a government looking to control and exploit regular citizens.

Cottingham1, Austin H. Johnson2, and Rebecca J. Erickson3 Abstract In this article, we examine how race and gender shape nurses’ emotion practice. Based on audio diaries collected from 48 nurses within two Midwestern hospital systems in the United States, we illustrate the disproportionate emotional labor that emerges among women nurses of color in the white institutional space of American health care. In this environment, women of color experience an emotional double shift as a result of negotiating patient, coworker, and supervisor interactions. In confronting racist encounters, nurses of color in our sample experience additional job-related stress, must perform disproportionate amounts of emotional labor, and experience depleted emotional resources that negatively influence patient care. Methodologically, the study extends prior research by using audio diaries collected from a racially diverse sample to capture emotion as a situationally emergent and complex feature of nursing practice. We also extend research on nursing by tracing both the sources and consequences of unequal emotion practices for nurse well-being and patient care. Keywords emotion practice; emotional capital; race; gender; nursing; patient care; audio diary method; United States Recent scholarship has depicted emotion as both an out- emotion emerges from the (mis)fit between the structured come and a mechanism of inequitable social arrangements.
