However, the research on why and how people forgive is inconsistent, as the concepts involved are complex and difficult to define and operationalize.

  • Empathy: a Social Cognitive Neuroscience Approach Lian T
    Social and Personality Psychology Compass 3/1 (2009): 94–110, 10.1111/j.1751-9004.2008.00154.x Empathy: A Social Cognitive Neuroscience Approach Lian T. Rameson* and Matthew D. Lieberman Department of Psychology, University of California, Los Angeles Abstract There has been recent widespread interest in the neural underpinnings of the experience of empathy. In this review, we take a social cognitive neuroscience approach to understanding the existing literature on the neuroscience of empathy. A growing body of work suggests that we come to understand and share in the experiences of others by commonly recruiting the same neural structures both during our own experience and while observing others undergoing the same experience. This literature supports a simulation theory of empathy, which proposes that we understand the thoughts and feelings of others by using our own mind as a model. In contrast, theory of mind research suggests that medial prefrontal regions are critical for understanding the minds of others. In this review, we offer ideas about how to integrate these two perspectives, point out unresolved issues in the literature, and suggest avenues for future research. In a way, most of our lives cannot really be called our own. We spend much of our time thinking about and reacting to the thoughts, feelings, intentions, and behaviors of others, and social psychology has demonstrated the manifold ways that our lives are shared with and shaped by our social relationships. It is a marker of the extreme sociality of our species that those who don’t much care for other people are at best labeled something unflattering like ‘hermit’, and at worst diagnosed with a disorder like ‘psychopathy’ or ‘autism’.

  • Evidence for Animal Grief?
    Ristau, Carolyn (2016) Evidence for animal grief?. Animal Sentience 4(8) DOI: 10.51291/2377-7478.1014 This article has appeared in the journal Animal Sentience, a peer-reviewed journal on animal cognition and feeling. It has been made open access, free for all, by WellBeing International and deposited in the WBI Studies Repository. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Animal Sentience 2016.046: Commentary on King on Animal Grief Evidence for animal grief? Commentary on King on Animal Grief Carolyn Ristau Little Neck, New York Abstract: The nature of evidence appropriate to the study of animal emotion (and cognition) is discussed in this review with reference to Barbara King’s book. How Animals Grieve is beautifully written, but it intermixes examples meeting King’s criteria for evidence of grief with other poignant but far less convincing examples. Yet, as noted earlier by Griffin (1958/1974), “Excessive caution can sometimes lead one as far astray as rash enthusiasm.” King cites strong evidence from long-term scientific field studies, often involving known individuals; from videotapes; from convergent evidence in neurophysiological studies; and, notwithstanding possible emotional bias, from animals living closely with humans. She makes salient points about data from one-time occurrences and variability, distinguishing experience from expression, and cautioning about over-emphasis on statistics without adequate contextual description. She is persuasive, with both caveats and recognition of the need to be open to the likelihood of animal emotional experience. Such possibilities have a great impact on our treatment of animals, individually and as a society. Carolyn A.

I rejoice that the Law Committee has affirmed a paper on the subject of miscarriage, a profound event in the lives of families, one which hitherto had received very little response from the traditional halakhic system. I also have a great deal of enthusiasm for much of the material presented in Rabbi Blank's paper. Her paper serves as a valu­ able tool for all of us involved in educating Jews about the mitzvah of c•7m 11j7':::J. I was especially delighted to hear some of her specific observations on more and less helpful ways to observe the mitzvah, her emphasis on the personal visit rather than c•7m 11j7':::J by answering machine, her wonderful suggestions about specificity ("Is chicken okay for dinner tonight?" rather than "Is there anything I can do?"), and about the broad applicability of the mitzvah to all illness, not just life-threatening diseases. However, it is my belief that her use of the category of c•?1n 11j7':::J in response to miscarriage is an unhelpful application of the mitzvah, because it distorts and denies the essence of the experience of miscarriage.

Introduction 1. Introduction It has been well documented that the loss of a pregnancy at any stage is an emotional and stressful time and affects every family member in some way. Some still feel that miscarriage and stillbirth, along with neonatal death, are taboo subjects as pregnancy and childbirth are seen as happy life events. This is compounded by a western culture which still struggles to talk about death openly. There are particular challenges for women who miscarry early in pregnancy as they may not have shared their news with family, friends and work colleagues but may have known of the pregnancy very early due to the sophistication of home pregnancy testing.

Her research interests are empathic intelligence, teacher education, writing development and arts-based research and pedagogy. 2 Abstract Empathic Intelligence: the phenomenon of intersubjective engagement. Professor Roslyn Arnold Faculty of Education University of Tasmania The phenomenon of learning defies easy explanation, but when people attune to each other, something significant can happen in the space between them. ‘Empathic Intelligence’ attempts to articulate aspects of the intersubjective and intra-subjective phenomena of pedagogy. Inter-subjective phenomena occur when individuals’ thoughts and feelings are mutually influenced. Intra-subjective phenomena occur when an individual’s thoughts and feelings are mutually influencing. It is a theoretical concept underpinned by an argument that effective pedagogy happens when an educator is able to create a dynamic between thinking and feeling, in a context which is perceived as caring. Empathically intelligent educators demonstrate a number of qualities, attributes, predispositions and abilities, in particular those which contribute to enthusiasm, capacity to engage others, expertise and empathy. At its best, empathically intelligent pedagogy can be transformative. It can mobilise tacit abilities, create affirming emotional templates for learning and support the development of higher-order cognitive abilities. This paper will outline some of the theoretical antecedents and principles informing empathic intelligence, including recent brain-mind research.

  • En-Theos Think About It the Word Enthusiasm Is Derived from the Greek Words, En and Theos, with Theos Being the Greek Word for God
    Part 4: En-Theos Think About It The word enthusiasm is derived from the Greek words, en and theos, with theos being the Greek word for God. So "enthusiasm" literally means, in its root concept, "full of God." Maybe that’s why enthusiastic people are often joyful! When facing hard times, remember that God will help you maintain enthusiasm. He will help you overcome all difficulties, all tragedies, all sorrows, all heartaches; He will give you victory. In 2 Corinthians 2:14 we read, “Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ.” Triumphant people are enthusiastic people! As you surrender your life to Jesus Christ and follow Him, you will have enthusiasm. He will keep it going for you so that you can overcome your defeats, and make a difference in the lives of others. Discussion Starter • The Bible uses several different words for the idea of being filled with enthusiasm, such as, zeal, and whole-heartedness. Are there any other words that you could use to describe enthusiasm? Further Exploration 1. When you are eager, you are enthusiastic about your service to God and others. This idea is taught again and again in the New Testament. We are told to: • Be “eager to serve” (1 Peter 5:2) • Be “eager for the gifts of the Spirit” (1 Corinthians 14:12) • Have an “eager willingness” to finish the work of faith we’ve begun (2 Corinthians 8:11) • Wait in “eager expectation” for God (Romans 8:9) • Be “eager to do what is good” (Titus 2:14) Which scripture would you focus on most in the next week and why? 2.

  • Emotional Intelligence at Work
    Emotional Intelligence at Work Hendrie Weisinger, Ph.D. [email protected] THE EMOTIONALLY INTELLIGENT FINANCIAL ADVISOR Table of Contents 1. Overview of Emotional Intelligence………………..P. 3 2. Ten Tips for Applying Your EI…………………….P. 6 3. Managing Specific Emotions……………………….P. 7 4. Blueprint for Applying Your EI…………………….P. 12 Overview of Emotional Intelligence Emotional Intelligence (EI) refers to your ability to make your emotions work for you by using them in ways that produce the results you want. In essence, you use your emotions to facilitate your performance. An abundance of recent research indicates that this ability is perhaps the most important factor in determining our success at home and at work. Studies have identified that there are at least 5 key factors that make up emotional intelligence: 1. High Self Awareness: the ability to tune in to information about yourself and to use it to help you navigate through life successfully. 2. Mood Management: the ability to manage your emotions, to shake off bad moods and to put yourself in a good mood. 3. Self-Motivation: the ability to get yourself to do necessary tasks, to bounce back quickly from setbacks, to “psyche” yourself up on cue. 4. Interpersonal Expertise: the ability to relate well to others, workout conflict, give and take criticism, build consensus, enhance team communication. 5. Emotional Mentoring: the ability to help others manage their emotions, to help others learn to motivate themselves, to help others work out conflict. There is now a good deal of empirical research that indicates individuals who demonstrate these factors are much more successful than those who don’t.
