Negative Emotions, Resilience and Mindfulness in Well-Being
Psychology and Behavioral Science International Journal ISSN 2474-7688 Research Article Psychol Behav Sci Int J Volume 13 Issue 2 - September 2019 Copyright © All rights are reserved by James Collard DOI: 10.19080/PBSIJ.2019.13.555857 The Role of Functional and Dysfunctional Negative Emotions, Resilience and Mindfulness in Well-Being B Shahzad and J Collard* School of Psychology, The Cairnmillar Institute, Australia Submission: August 01, 2019; Published: September 09, 2019 *Corresponding author: James Collard, School of Psychology, The Cairnmillar Institute, Melbourne, Australia Abstract This study sets out to investigate the binary model of emotions. It explores the relationships between suggested functional negative emotions and dysfunctional negative emotions with mindfulness, resilience, and well-being. The study was based on a sample of 104 adult participants. Results indicated that participants differentiated between proposed functional and dysfunctional negative emotion categories. Results of the structural equation modelling (SEM) demonstrated that functional negative emotions and dysfunctional negative emotions uniquely contributed to reduced well-being. The relationship of functional negative emotions to well-being was mediated by participants’ resilience levels. The relationship of dysfunctional negative emotions to well-being was mediated by participants’ resilience and mindfulness levels. SEM results indicated partial mediation, as the direct effect of functional and dysfunctional negative emotions on well-being was still -
About Emotions There Are 8 Primary Emotions. You Are Born with These
About Emotions There are 8 primary emotions. You are born with these emotions wired into your brain. That wiring causes your body to react in certain ways and for you to have certain urges when the emotion arises. Here is a list of primary emotions: Eight Primary Emotions Anger: fury, outrage, wrath, irritability, hostility, resentment and violence. Sadness: grief, sorrow, gloom, melancholy, despair, loneliness, and depression. Fear: anxiety, apprehension, nervousness, dread, fright, and panic. Joy: enjoyment, happiness, relief, bliss, delight, pride, thrill, and ecstasy. Interest: acceptance, friendliness, trust, kindness, affection, love, and devotion. Surprise: shock, astonishment, amazement, astound, and wonder. Disgust: contempt, disdain, scorn, aversion, distaste, and revulsion. Shame: guilt, embarrassment, chagrin, remorse, regret, and contrition. All other emotions are made up by combining these basic 8 emotions. Sometimes we have secondary emotions, an emotional reaction to an emotion. We learn these. Some examples of these are: o Feeling shame when you get angry. o Feeling angry when you have a shame response (e.g., hurt feelings). o Feeling fear when you get angry (maybe you’ve been punished for anger). There are many more. These are NOT wired into our bodies and brains, but are learned from our families, our culture, and others. When you have a secondary emotion, the key is to figure out what the primary emotion, the feeling at the root of your reaction is, so that you can take an action that is most helpful. . -

Understanding the Work of Pre-Abortion Counselors
Understanding the Work of Pre-abortion Counselors A dissertation presented to the faculty of The Patton College of Education of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Jennifer M. Conte December 2013 © 2013 Jennifer M. Conte: All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Understanding the Work of Pre-abortion Counselors by JENNIFER M. CONTE has been approved for the Department of Counseling and Higher Education and The Patton College of Education by Yegan Pillay Associate Professor of Counseling and Higher Education Renée A. Middleton Dean, The Patton College of Education 3 Abstract CONTE, JENNIFER M., Ph.D., December 2013, Counselor Education Understanding the Work of Pre-abortion Counselors Director of Dissertation: Yegan Pillay This qualitative study examined the experiences of individuals who work in abortion clinics as pre-abortion counselors. Interviewing was the primary method of inquiry. Although information regarding post-abortion distress is documented in the literature, pre-abortion counseling is rarely found in the literature. This study sought to fill a void in the literature by seeking to understand the experience of pre-abortion counselors. The documented experiences shared several themes such as a love for their job, having a non-judgmental attitude, and having a previous interest in reproductive health care. 4 Preface In qualitative methodology, the researcher is the instrument (Patton, 2002). Therefore, it is important to understand the lenses through which I am examining the phenomena of pre-abortion counseling. The vantage point that I offer is influenced by my experiences as a pre-abortion counselor. I have considered myself to be pro-choice ever since I can remember thinking about the topic of abortion. -

The Lived Experience of Being Born Into Grief
The lived experience of being born into grief Michelle Holt A thesis submitted to Auckland University of Technology in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Health Science (DHSc) 2018 School of Public Health and Psychosocial Studies Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences Primary Supervisor: Dr Jacqueline Feather Abstract This study explores the meaning of the lived experience of being born into grief. Using a phenomenological hermeneutic methodology, informed by the writings of Martin Heidegger [1889-1976] and Hans-George Gadamer [1900-2002], this research provides an understanding of the lived experience of having been a baby when one or both parents were grieving (born into grief). The review of the literature identified physical effects of being born when a mother was stressed but no literature was found which discussed emotional effects that a baby may incur due to stress or grief of a parent. The notion of grief was explored and literature pertaining to early childhood adversity reviewed as a possible resource for bringing light to how it may be for babies born into grief. The literature indicated that possible long term complications such as rebellious behaviour, poor relationships, poor mental and physical health, could be a result of early adversity. The literature on understanding effects of grief from a conceptual perspective, rather than from the lived experience perspective, provided a platform for this study. In this study nine New Zealand participants told their stories about the grief situation they were born into and how they thought it had affected them. Data were gathered in the form of semi structured interviews which were audio recorded and transcribed verbatim. -

Chinese Cultural Values and Chinese Language Pedagogy
CHINESE CULTURAL VALUES AND CHINESE LANGUAGE PEDAGOGY A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Bo Zhu, M.A. The Ohio State University Master’s Examination Committee Approved by Dr. Galal Walker, Adviser Dr. Mari Noda ________________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures Copyright @ 2008 Bo Zhu ABSTRACT Cultural values hold great control on people’s social behaviors. To become culturally competent, it is important for second language learners to understand primary cultural values in the target culture and to behave in accordance with those values. Cultural themes are the behavioral norms that people share in a society in pursuit of cultural values, which help learners relate what they learn to do with cultural values. The purpose of this study is to identify pedagogical cultural values and cultural themes in Chinese language education and propose a performance-based language curriculum, which integrates cultural values and cultural themes into language pedagogy. There are mainly three research questions discussed. First, what are the primary components in the Chinese cultural value system? Second, how is a cultural value manifest and managed in social behaviors? Third, how can a performance-based language curriculum integrate cultural values and cultural themes? This thesis analyzes the nature of cultural values and the components of Chinese cultural value system, with goals to identify pedagogical cultural values in Chinese language education. Seven cultural values are selected based on proposed criteria as primary pedagogical cultural themes in Chinese language education. -
Alteration of Complex Negative Emotions Induced by Music in Euthymic Patients with Bipolar Disorder
Article Alteration of complex negative emotions induced by music in euthymic patients with bipolar disorder CHOPPIN, Sabine, et al. Abstract Background Research has shown bipolar disorder to be characterized by dysregulation of emotion processing, including biases in facial expression recognition that is most prevalent during depressive and manic states. Very few studies have examined induced emotions when patients are in a euthymic phase, and there has been no research on complex emotions. We therefore set out to test emotional hyperreactivity in response to musical excerpts inducing complex emotions in bipolar disorder during euthymia. Methods We recruited 21 patients with bipolar disorder (BD) in a euthymic phase and 21 matched healthy controls. Participants first rated their emotional reactivity on two validated self-report scales (ERS and MAThyS). They then rated their music-induced emotions on nine continuous scales. The targeted emotions were wonder, power, melancholy and tension. We used a specific generalized linear mixed model to analyze the behavioral data. Results We found that participants in the euthymic bipolar group experienced more intense complex negative emotions than controls when the musical excerpts induced wonder. Moreover, patients [...] Reference CHOPPIN, Sabine, et al. Alteration of complex negative emotions induced by music in euthymic patients with bipolar disorder.
