  • Psychic Seizures and Their Relevance to Psychosis in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
    9 Psychic Seizures and Their Relevance to Psychosis in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Kenjiro Fukao Department of Neuropsychiatry, Graduate School of Medicine, Kyoto University Japan 1. Introduction Psychic seizures are defined as simple partial seizures manifesting themselves as psychic phenomena. Their current classification is neither comprehensive nor rational enough, mainly because psychic seizures are defined as subjective phenomena and not as objective dysfunctions. The high incidence of psychiatric symptoms in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is not only resulted from misdiagnosis but causally linked to psychic seizures. In this article the relationship between psychic seizures and various psychiatric disturbances found in TLE patients is discussed from a clinical viewpoint. Psychosis in TLE patients has historically been of special interest, whose relationship with schizophrenia is still unresolved. In this article the possible effect of psychic seizures on the generation of psychosis in TLE patients is discussed based on the author’s own data obtained from magnetoencephalographic localization of psychic seizures and psychosis in TLE patients. 2. Psychic seizures and their classification Psychic seizures have been classified from a practical viewpoint into cognitive, emotional, mnemonic seizures and miscellaneous. In the following, psychic seizures are described according to the current classification (Fish, 1997), and the limitation of the current classification is discussed. 2.1 Cognitive seizures Cognitive (or dyscognitive) seizures indicate disturbances of cognitive functions by seizure activities. Although theoretically disturbances of higher cognitive functions cannot be localized only to temporal lobes, as they are realized by collaboration of many circuits all around the brain, clinically cognitive seizures are most often observed in TLE.

By Meagan Cline One of the most controversial topics in the criminal justice industry is the "insanity defense" and its applicability or validity in prosecuting criminal cases. The purpose of this assignment is to identify and discuss psychopathology and crime causation in terms of mental illness, research, and the insanity defense. For this evaluation, information was gathered from scholarly research, textbooks, dictionaries, and published literature. These sources were then carefully reviewed and applied to the evaluation in a concise, yet informative, manner. This assignment also addresses some of the key terms in psychopathology and crime causation, including various theories, definitions, and less commonly known relevant factors influencing claims of mental instability or insanity.

However, current research indicates many potential benefits of integrating issues of religion and spirituality into psychotherapy for individuals with schizophrenia. In this paper, implications are presented for incorporating spiritual and religious issues in psychotherapy for individuals with schizophrenia. A background on the integration of spirituality into the practice of psychotherapy is discussed. The literature on spiritually-oriented psychotherapy for schizophrenia is provided. Clinical implications are offered with specific attention to issues of religious delusions and cultural considerations. Lastly, steps for implementing spiritually-oriented psychotherapy for individuals with schizophrenia are delineated to assist providers in carrying out spiritually sensitive care.

  • Chapter Nine
    Gunderson & Cochrane - Ch 9: Religion & Health of the Public Chapter Nine Religion and the Health of the Public: Deep Accountability “For the hardest problems, the problems that would not give way without long looks into the universe’s bowels, physicists reserved words like deep.” - James Gleick, Chaos: Making a New Science1 Better theory enables better choices, or it is not worth the bother. If the theory does not help those in positions of influence to guide efforts and alignments relevant to the health of their community, the theory is little better than intellectual entertainment; a distraction. A good theory helps people in positions of influence (many of whom might not think of themselves as “leaders”) to achieve deep accountability for how they use their influence, for how they live their lives. They seek accountability that is deep in the sense of being rooted in an understanding of the complexity of life and in respect for its forms, aware of the turbulence it contains, sensitive to the variety of levels and scales at which human relationships matter, and worthy of the weight their decisions must support over time. If Amartya Sen sees development as freedom and Paul Ricoeur is unable to define the self except in relation to another as the basis of justice, then we see deep accountability for health as defined by the criteria of comprehensive well-being. The language of accountability pervades discourse around health policy. Recent U.S. reform legislation, for example, includes a move toward “accountable care organizations,” simply meaning that somebody be held accountable for the various paid providers who offer services for an episode of treatment.

Such clinicians are considered the "Family Psychiatrist." Psychological characteristics of such families who cannot be referred to other clinicians are articulated. The literature on psychotherapy in small rural communities is reviewed as having relevance to define the ethical issues that arise in such treatments. These issues include: maintaining therapeutic neutrality; creating functional, flexible, and appropriate boundaries; maintaining confidentiality; promoting patient autonomy and growth; as well as managing conflicts of interest. Relevant countertransference issues are examined.

  • The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders Diagnostic Criteria for Research
    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
