LB_F4640_Pages_QP.indd 2 8/22/17 4:18 PM A Letter to You When you were little, your emotions were simple. You smiled when you were happy. You cried when you were scared or hurt. You had only a few ways of responding to what happened to you, and you didn’t think about your moods much at all. Now that you’re older, your emotions are more complicated. You might freeze up during a test or slam your door when you’re mad. It might seem like you’re on an emo- tional roller coaster—up one minute and down the next. But if you learn more about your feelings, you can keep them from racing out of control. You can be in charge—and that makes the ride a whole lot easier.

How do you feel at this very moment? Happy? Sad? Angry? Scared? Lots of things in your life can set off your emotions. Sometimes you will feel good . sometimes not so good. But all those feelings—the good, the sad, and the all-around bad—are normal. And chances are, even the happiest girl you know is sorting out her own confusing knot of emotions. So hold on and hang in there, and we’ll help you figure this feelings thing out. 7 LB_F4640_Pages_QP.indd 7 8/22/17 4:18 PM What Are Feelings? “I feel great!” “I feel mad.” “I feel scared!” Just what are these oceans of emotions washing over you these days? Emotions are reactions you have to things that happen around you, and you use “feeling” words to describe them. Because the events you react to are constantly changing, it’s natural that your emotions would change, too! (That’s why the word “emotion” has the word “motion” built right into it.) You can be soaring to the top of the world one minute and feel stuck in the mud the next. Some times you may not even be sure how you feel at all. Some days I feel happy one minute and like crying the next. I continually get mad when people ask me about my day, and I often blow up at my mom. What is happening? Why do I do this? Confused The better you become at identifying your feelings, the more you’ll learn about yourself. People often use the words on the facing page to describe their feelings. Circle any feelings you remember having in the last week. 8 LB_F4640_Pages_QP.indd 8 8/22/17 4:18 PM I felt . thrilled proud shy fearful honored happy wonderful ashamed guilty joyful scared anxious confused frustrated envious sad ambitious annoyed excited moody embarrassed pleased serious compassionate worried silly brave hopeless sorry loving hopeful giddy respectful careless 9 LB_F4640_Pages_QP.indd 9 8/22/17 4:18 PM Your Mood-O-Meters Each feeling you have can be strong, mild, or somewhere in between. For each situation, fill in the mood-o-meter to show where your feelings would register. If you have feelings that aren’t listed here, create a new mood-o- meter. 1.

  • Handbook of Anger Management and Domestic Violence Offender Treatment
    HANDBOOK OF ANGER MANAGEMENT AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE OFFENDER TREATMENT In the Handbook of Anger Management and Domestic Violence Offender Treatment, Ronald T. Potter-Efron consciously connects anger manage- ment and domestic violence, two long separated fi elds, and addresses treatment options and intervention methods that meet the needs of individual clients, couples, families, and groups. Therapists, counselors, social workers, and other treatment specialists will fi nd this book a useful overview and reference for anger and anger management techniques as well as domestic violence approaches. This new edition is split into three distinct sections: • A description of anger and domestic violence focused upon helping clients use the principles of neuroplasticity to dramatically alter their behavior. • Assessment for anger problems and/or domestic violence. • Group treatment or individual, couples, and family treatment for anger problems and/or domestic violence. Woven through this book is a fair and balanced treatment of gender issues, refl ected in the diversity of case examples that address jealousy, chronic anger, behavioral problems, group and individual counseling, and more. Readers are also shown how anger develops and can lead to verbal and physical outbursts, the fi ve types of rage reactions, and how to treat anger turned inward. Potter-Efron also details four different approaches to treating anger: behavioral, cognitive, affective, and existential/spiritual. Mental health professionals are provided numerous questionnaires and worksheets to utilize with their clients. The Handbook of Anger Management and Domestic Violence Offender Treatment is an essential guidebook that illustrates effective theory and practice. Ronald T. Potter-Efron, MSW, PhD, is Director of the Anger Management and Domestic Violence Center at First Things First Counseling in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

MEDINA Dr. David L. Brunsma, Thesis Advisor MAY 2007 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled THEORIZING AMERICAN GIRL Presented by Veronica E. Medina A candidate for the degree of Master of Arts, And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor David L. Brunsma Professor Mary Jo Neitz Professor Lisa Y. Flores DEDICATION My journey to and through the master’s program has never been a solitary one. My family has accompanied me every step of the way, encouraging and supporting me: materially and financially, emotionally and spiritually, and academically. From KU to MU, you all loved me and believed in me throughout every endeavor. This thesis is dedicated to my family, and most especially, to my parents Alicia and Francisco Medina. Mom and Dad: As a child, I often did not recognize and, far too often, took for granted the sacrifices that you made for me. Sitting and writing a thesis is a difficult task, but it is not as difficult as any of the tasks you two undertook to ensure my well-being, security, and happiness and to see me through to this goal. For all of the times you went without (and now, as an adult, I know that there were many) so that we would not, thank you.

  • A History of Maico Motorcycles and American
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School School of Humanities A HISTORY OF MAICO MOTORCYCLES AND AMERICAN SPORT MOTORCYCLE CULTURE, 1955-1983 A Dissertation in American Studies by David Wayne Russell Copyright 2015 David Wayne Russell Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2015 The dissertation of David W. Russell was reviewed and approved* by the following: Charles D. Kupfer Associate Professor of American Studies and History Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Anne A. Verplanck Associate Professor of American Studies and Heritage Studies Simon J. Bronner Distinguished Professor of American Studies and Folklore Director, Doctoral Program in American Studies Coordinator, American Studies Program Seth Wolpert Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT Within American motorcycling, sport riders—the skilled enthusiasts who compete on motorcycles in a variety of venues—are often overlooked. This dissertation explains the practices and characteristics of a unique group of these American sport riders who embraced off- road motorcycle competition in the 1960s and 1970s. It reveals a cultural entity vastly different from the more flamboyant “biker” and “outlaw” groups, investigated by scholars over the past few decades. These enthusiasts relied on a close-knit group of fellow riders and dealers, and usually maintained and modified their bikes themselves. This group continued an American racing subculture far removed from that of the on-road motorcyclists. The freedom to try new things, expressed in early 1970s world culture, further propelled off-road riding and racing, contributing to the “motorcycle boom” and the 1973 high point of motorcycle sales in the United States.
