  • QUESTION 20 Despair We Next Have to Consider the Vices Opposed to Hope
    QUESTION 20 Despair We next have to consider the vices opposed to hope: first, despair (desperatio) (question 20) and, second, presumption (praesumptio) (question 21). On the first topic there are four questions: (1) Is despair a sin? (2) Can despair exist without unbelief? (3) Is despair the greatest of sins? (4) Does despair arise from listlessness (acedia)? Article 1 Is despair a sin? It seems that despair is not a sin (desperatio not sit peccatum): Objection 1: As is clear from Augustine in De Libero Arbitrio, every sin involves turning toward some changeable good, combined with turning away from the unchangeable good. But despair does not involve turning toward any changeable good. Therefore, it is not a sin. Objection 2: What arises from a good root does not seem to be a sin, since, as Matthew 7:18 says, “A good tree cannot bring produce bad fruits.” But despair seems to proceed from a good root, viz., fear of God, or horror at the magnitude of one’s sins. Therefore, despair is not a sin. Objection 3: If despair were a sin, then, in the case of the damned, their despairing would be a sin. But this is not imputed to them as a sin (non imputatur eis ad culpam); instead, it is imputed to their being damned. Therefore, it is not imputed as a sin to those who are in this life, either (neque viatoribus imputatur ad culpam). And so despair is not a sin. But contrary to this: That through which men are induced to sin seems to be not only a sin, but a principle of sins.

  • Hope and Anger As Mediators Between Collective Action Frames and Participation in Collective Mobilization: the Case of 15-M
    Journal of Social and Political Psychology jspp.psychopen.eu | 2195-3325 Original Research Reports Hope and Anger as Mediators Between Collective Action Frames and Participation in Collective Mobilization: The Case of 15-M Anna Wlodarczyk* ab, Nekane Basabe c, Darío Páez b, Larraitz Zumeta b [a] Escuela de Psicología, Universidad Católica del Norte, Antofagasta, Chile. [b] Department of Social Psychology and Methodology of Behaviour Sciences, University of the Basque Country, San Sebastián, Spain. [c] Department of Social Psychology and Methodology of Behaviour Sciences, University of the Basque Country, Vitoria, Spain. Abstract The study set out to integrate collective action models and emphasize the role of emotions. Whereas the importance of anger is indisputable, relatively little attention has been paid to the role of positive emotions, such as hope, in collective action research. Hence, the aim of the study was to explore the role of hope and anger as drivers of participation and involvement in collective mobilizations. A cross-sectional field study (N = 638) conducted right after the emergence of the 15-M socio-political protest movement in Spain assessed the emotions and beliefs of both demonstrators and those who took no part in the active mobilization. We hypothesized that anger and hope would sequentially mediate the relationship between collective action frames and participation in collective action. Furthermore, to test this premise, we ran two alternative sequential mediation models based on the social identity model of collective action (SIMCA) and the encapsulated model of social identity in collective action (EMSICA), but with emotions as mediators between collective action frames and intensity of participation.

Hope, Courage, and Resilience in the Lives of Transgender Women of Color Abstract There is a lack of qualitative and strengths-based knowledge about the lived experience of transgender women of color in the US. To address this research gap, a Photovoice project was undertaken with five transgender women living in a small urban area. Thematic analysis of the participants’ discussion of their photographs identified three major themes: hope, courage, and resilience. Analysis suggests a framework for understanding these women’s lived experiences and the psychosocial tools that they use to negotiate their daily lives and persevere in the face of interpersonal and structural oppression.

  • Modeling the Experience of Emotion
    Modeling the Experience of Emotion Joost Broekens Man‐Machine Interaction group Delft University of Technology [email protected] (Draft manuscript submitted to the first issue of the International Journal of Synthetic Emotions) Abstract Affective computing has proven to be a viable field of research comprised of a large number of multidisciplinary researchers resulting in work that is widely published. The majority of this work consists of computational models of emotion recognition, computational modeling of causal factors of emotion and emotion expression through rendered and robotic faces. A smaller part is concerned with modeling the effects of emotion, formal modeling of cognitive appraisal theory and models of emergent emotions. Part of the motivation for affective computing as a field is to better understand emotional processes through computational modeling. One of the four major topics in affective computing is computers that have emotions (the others are recognizing, expressing and understanding emotions). A critical and neglected aspect of having emotions is the experience of emotion (Barrett, Mesquita, Ochsner, & Gross, 2007): what does the content of an emotional episode look like, how does this content change over time and when do we call the episode emotional. Few modeling efforts have these topics as primary focus. The launch of a journal on synthetic emotions should motivate research initiatives in this direction, and this research should have a measurable impact on emotion research in psychology. I show that a good way to do so is to investigate the psychological core of what an emotion is: an experience. I present ideas on how the experience of emotion could be modeled and provide evidence that several computational models of emotion are already addressing the issue.

  • The Physician's Role in Managing Acute Stress Disorder
    The Physician’s Role in Managing Acute Stress Disorder MICHAEL G. KAVAN, PhD; GARY N. ELSASSER, PharmD; and EUGENE J. BARONE, MD Creighton University School of Medicine, Omaha, Nebraska Acute stress disorder is a psychiatric diagnosis that may occur in patients within four weeks of a traumatic event. Features include anxiety, intense fear or helplessness, dissociative symptoms, reexperiencing the event, and avoidance behaviors. Persons with this disorder are at increased risk of developing posttraumatic stress disorder. Other risk factors for posttraumatic stress disorder include current or family history of anxiety or mood disorders, a history of sexual or physical abuse, lower cognitive ability, engaging in excessive safety behaviors, and greater symptom severity one to two weeks after the trauma. Common reactions to trauma include physical, mental, and emotional symptoms. Persistent psychological distress that is severe enough to interfere with psychological or social functioning may war- rant further evaluation and intervention. Patients experiencing acute stress disorder may benefit from psychological first aid, which includes ensuring the patient’s safety; providing information about the event, stress reactions, and how to cope; offering practical assistance; and helping the patient to connect with social support and other services. Cogni- tive behavior therapy is effective in reducing symptoms and decreasing the future incidence of posttraumatic stress disorder. Critical Incident Stress Debriefing aims to mitigate emotional distress through sharing emotions about the traumatic event, providing education and tips on coping, and attempting to normalize reactions to trauma. However, this method may actually impede natural recovery by overwhelming victims. There is insufficient evidence to recom- mend the routine use of drugs in the treatment of acute stress disorder.

  • My Name Is Greg. I'd Like to Share My Story of HOPE. Anxiety & Panic
    My name is Greg. I’d like to share my story of HOPE. Anxiety & Panic Disorder came into my life in my early twenties. I’ve suffered for over 12 years. With each passing year, I got worse. I sought treatment from numerous doctors in my local community, but none offered me much help. Eventually, my life became so limited that I could only go to work and straight home. While at work, I could not leave the office. On the weekends, I just sat at home. Fear of anxiety and panic attacks ruled my life and I wasn’t living anymore. Life was very empty and all of my relationships were suffering. I wasn’t able to be the Daddy and Husband my family deserved. My life was miserable. Finally, I decided that I’d had enough and was determined to find a place that could help me. I researched mental health facilities all over the country. I spent many nights on my knees and in tears asking God to lead me to the right place to get real help. I found Lindner Center of HOPE. I live just 6 hours from Lindner, but it took me three days to get there. I would only travel alone in the middle of the night and under medication. I’d stop and get a hotel after driving a couple hours each night. Finally, I arrived and found myself in the parking lot. I was afraid, but determined to get the help I needed. I made myself walk through the front doors, which was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done.
