In general, the items depend on the patient's report; however, the final rating is based on the clinical judgment of the interviewer. Rate the characteristics of each item during the prior week up until and including the time of the interview. Scores should reflect the average (mean) occurrence of each item for the entire week. This rating scale is intended for use as a semi-structured interview.

  • Self-Ambivalence in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
    Self-Ambivalence in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Sunil S Bhar Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July, 2004 Produced on acid-free paper Department of Psychology University of Melbourne ii iii Abstract According to the cognitive model, Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is maintained by various belief factors such as an inflated sense of responsibility, perfectionism and an overestimation about the importance of thoughts. Despite much support for this hypothesis, there is a lack of understanding about the role of self-concept in the maintenance or treatment of OCD. Guidano and Liotti (1983) suggest that individuals who are ambivalent about their self-worth, personal morality and lovability use perfectionistic and obsessive compulsive behaviours to continuously restore self- esteem. This thesis develops a model of OCD that integrates self-ambivalence in the cognitive model of OCD. Specifically, it explored the hypothesis that the OCD symptoms and the belief factors related to the vulnerability of OCD are mechanisms that provide relief from self- ambivalence. It addressed three questions. First, is self-ambivalence related to OCD symptoms and OCD-related beliefs? Second, to what extent is self-ambivalence specific to OCD, compared to other anxiety disorders? Third, to what extent is self-ambivalence important in accounting for response and relapse of OCD to psychological interventions? In order to explore these questions, a questionnaire measuring self- ambivalence was first developed and evaluated. Non clinical and clinical participants were recruited for research. Non-clinical participants (N = 269) comprised undergraduate students (N = 226: mean age = 19.55; SD = 3.27) and community controls (N = 43; mean age = 43.78; SD = 3.92).

INTRODUCTION TO THE 2011 REVISION Since its introduction in 1986, the Y-BOCS has become the gold standard for rating symptom severity in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Shortly after its inception, the Children's Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale was created using the Y-BOCS structure. Like its adult counterpart, the CY- BOCS has been used as a primary outcome in virtually every major clinical trial involving youth with OCD. It has been translated into multiple languages and remains the standard for assessing symptom severity and treatment response. Despite this broad range of acceptance, over two decades of experience taught us that there is still room for improvement. Accordingly, we revised and created the CY-BOCS-II to address a number of issues that are reviewed below. The Y-BOCS-II

(PhD, Educational Leadership, Research, and Policy) Response to Intervention: The Link Between Specific Learning Disability and Special Education Services Dissertation directed by Professor Al Ramirez The purpose of this quantitative study is to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in the percentage of students identified as Specific Learning Disability before and after states policy adoptions in Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Louisiana, Rhode Island, and West Virginia that required the use of Response to Intervention (RtI) as the sole methodology for identifying students with Specific Learning Disability. Response to Intervention assumed a dominant role in education with the passage of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. Identified as a method to intervene early with students who were not making adequate academic achievement, RtI found its way into special education law with the passage of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act in 2004 hereafter referred to as IDEA 2004.

  • Semiotic Approach to the Analysis of Interpersonal Communication in Modern Comedies
    SEMIOTIC APPROACH TO THE ANALYSIS OF INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION IN MODERN COMEDIES Maria Kochetkova A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2010 Committee: Ellen W Gorsevski, Advisor Lara Lengel Donald McQuarie © 2010 Maria Kochetkova All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ellen W Gorsevski, Advisor The present research takes a cultural prospective on the tensions in interpersonal relations based on the movies of the 90’s, such as Sleepless in Seattle (1993), As Good As It Gets (1997), and You’ve Got Mail (1998). The romantic comedy films of the 90’s were innovative in their genre, for they have touched upon serious drama subjects, hiding behind the “romantic” and “comedy’ style. Through the prism of the semiotic analysis I try to analyze how cultural codes play into the formation of hidden conflicts in interpersonal communication, mainly loneliness. Umberto Eco’s theory of the openness of the “author’s message” permits to illustrate the many possibilities of interpretation by the audience of the given films and allows an in-depth analysis of the cultural situation. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Firstly, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr Ellen Gorsevski, who has not only supported me throughout this process, but through her guidance I was able to see my research in a different way. I would like to thank my family, especially my mom and dad, Natalia and Alexander, without whom not only this project would not be possible, but only through their guidance and support I was able to understand the true meaning of education.
