  • Behavioral Science PSY-1 DRAWING an IMAGINARY
    Behavioral Science PSY-1 DRAWING AN IMAGINARY WORLD: THE EFFECTS ON SHORT-TERM MOOD IMPROVEMENT IN CHILDREN Irfa Kafayat (UG) and Jennifer Drake, Department of Psychology, Brooklyn College, Brooklyn, NY. Previous research has shown that drawing improves short-term mood in both adults and children when used as a form of distraction rather expression (Drake & Winner, 2012; 2013). This study examined the advantages of a distraction drawing task that calls for creation of an imaginary world vs. a non-imaginary world. When children use their imagination to create an imaginary world, their emotions are directed at the events in that imaginary world rather than ongoing, actual events (Harris, 2000). This study included 60 children between the ages of 6 and 8 (M = 7;6; SD = 0;10; 32 females). In order to induce a sad mood, I asked participants to think of a disappointing event. After the negative mood induction, I randomly assigned children: to draw a picture of a real event (a dog chasing a robber) or a picture of an imaginary event (dragon chasing a witch). With the premise that imagination and fictional events can help improve mood, I predicted that those in the imagine condition, children who drew a “dragon chasing a witch” would have a greater mood improvement than those in the real condition. Mood was measured before and after the mood induction and after drawing. Mood improvement did not differ between the two conditions, (1, 59) = 0.366, p = 0.548. However, the imaginary condition was marginally more absorbed in the activity than the real condition, F (1, 59) = 3.109, p = .083.

  • The NYPD: Spies, Spooks and Lies
    One Police Plaza Leonard Levitt's latest book, NYPD Confidential: Power and Corruption in the Country's Greatest Police Force, is available in stores and online. Click here to order. The NYPD: Spies, Spooks and Lies September5, 2011 The New York City Police Department has been spying on hundreds of Muslim mosques, schools, businesses, student groups, non-governmental organizations and individuals, NYPD Confidential has learned. The spying operation has targeted virtually every level of Muslim life in New York City, according to a trove of pages of Intelligence Division documents obtained by NYPD Confidential. The documents do not specify whether the police have evidence or solid suspicions of criminality to justify their watching the Muslim groups. The breadth and scope of the surveillance described in the documents suggest that the police have been painting with a broad brush and may have targeted subjects without specific tips about wrongdoing. The NYPD's spying operation has compiled information on 250 mosques, 12 Islamic schools, 31 Muslim student associations, 263 places it calls "ethnic hotspots," such as businesses and restaurants, as well as 138 "persons of interest," according to the Intel documents. Police have singled out 53 mosques, four Islamic schools and seven Muslim student associations as institutions of "concern." They have also labeled 42 individuals as top tier "persons of interest." At least 32 mosques have been infiltrated by either undercover officers, informants, or both, according to documents, which are dated between 2003 and 2006 and marked "secret." The NYPD has also been monitoring Muslim student associations at seven local colleges: City, Baruch, Hunter, Queens, LaGuardia, St.

To the circle of friends who are privileged to know him, his act of laying down the burdens of ad- ministering one of our busiest college li- braries means not a sigh of relief but a step toward more gracious living, more time for friends, and, we hope, more time to employ his charming and witty pen. It was typical of him to describe his work at Brooklyn College, where he built up a circulation of some six hundred thirty thousand a year on a collection of ninety thousand books, as "sitting on the lid."
