Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Printed in the USA. Copyright © 2014 Society for Psychophysiological Research DOI: 10.1111/psyp.12338 In Memoriam Bernard Tursky (1918–2012) LARRY D. JAMNER, Ph.D. Department of Psychology and Social Behavior University of California Irvine Psychophysiology and our Society lost one of its original greats when Bernard Tursky passed away on September 13, 2012 at the age of 93. Bernard Tursky was an academic trail blazer and pioneer extraordinaire. Raised in New York City, Bernard immigrated to the U.S. with his grandparents and brothers at the age of three. Circumstances demanded that he cease his formal education after the eighth grade in order to support his family. Bernie or “Profes- sor” as I affectionately referred to him represented as close an embodiment of the self-taught “Renaissance Man” I have ever met or will likely ever come across again. To enter Bernie’s office was to enter a veritable library of classic and contemporary texts, and reference manuals on topics such as electrical engineering, classic psychology, political science, medical sciences, physiology, psy- chiatry, systems theory, and mathematics. His academic career began as a technical engineer at MIT, and as his reputation grew as an ingenious developer of laboratory equipment and programming, he was recruited by the Massachusetts Mental Health Center. -

1 Why We Need a More Humanistic Positive Organizational Scholarship: Carl Rogers' Person- Centered Approach As a Challenge To
Why we Need a More Humanistic Positive Organizational Scholarship: Carl Rogers’ Person- Centered Approach as a Challenge to Neoliberalism Stephen Joseph University of Nottingham Correspondence should be addressed to Stephen Joseph, PhD, Professor, School of Education, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, United Kingdom NG8 1BB. E-mail: [email protected] © 2019, American Psychological Association. This paper is not the copy of record and may not exactly replicate the final, authoritative version of the article. Please do not copy or cite without authors' permission. The final article will be available, upon publication, via its DOI: 10.1037/hum0000151 1 Why we Need a More Humanistic Approach to Positive Organizational Scholarship: Carl Rogers’ Person-Centred Approach as a Challenge to Neoliberalism Recent years have seen much interest in the new field of Positive Organizational Scholarship (POS). POS focuses specifically on what is positive, flourishing, and life-giving in organizations, and how to cultivate individual and organizational performance. In this article I will discuss the humanistic approach of Carl Rogers and how it can contribute to POS. Rogers is well known for his work on human relations and like POS he was concerned with the promotion of human flourishing. However, unlike POS, Rogers’ approach was based on a distinctive view of human nature and non-directive practice. By comparison, it looks like POS talks the language of human flourishing while offering ways in which to control and direct people as part of the neoliberal hegemony that humanistic scholars might see as the problem. I would like to advocate for a humanistic POS; one which explicitly has the aim of liberation and empowerment. -

Claremont McKenna College A Unified Framework of the Shared Aesthetic Experience submitted to Piercarlo Valdesolo and Dean Peter Uvin by Huakai Liao for Senior Thesis Fall 2015 01/25/2016 0 Acknowledgement First of all, I would like to express my sincere thanks to my thesis advisor, Dr. Valdesolo, for the continuous support throughout this project as well as my entire undergraduate career. There have been very difficult times during the span of this project. I could not thank him enough for his support and understanding during those times. I still remembered the first day of freshman year when I asked him to join his laboratory to study emotion and he said yes. The interest in emotion has grown since then and led me to my other thesis in computer science on the topic of building emotional machine as well as the current project. I would also like to thank Dr. Halpern for her support. Even after her retirement, her door has always been open whenever I ran into trouble. She supported and cared for me during some of my difficult times. -

Hawthorn effect- Refers to the simple fact that workers became more productive when they are aware that they are being studied. The original experiment was conducted between 1924 and 1932 and was meant to measure the increase of production due to increase in lighting. The original experiment lasted from 1927-1932 and measured the productivity of two women working in the relay assembly section of the Western Electric Factory outside Chicago. -
NUMBER 52 Socializing for Modernization in a Multi-Ethnic Elite
NUMBER 52 Socializing for Modernization in a Multi-Ethnic Elite John A. Armstrong Conference on Entrepreneurship and Economic Innovation in Russia/Soviet Union Sponsored by Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies American Association for the Advancement of Slavic Studies November 16-18, 1978 Washington, D.C. DRAFT PAPER - NOT FOR CITATION SOCIALIZING FOR MODER!~IZATION IN A MULTI-ETHNIC ELITE John A. Armstrong Few historical topics are more important than economic modernization in the Russian polity. 4ike other experiences in economic development, the Russian experience has been highly complex. Certainly one component has been the role of the entrepreneur. Yet, this role itself is a very complex one; failure to separate the many components of the role and to define them analytically has probably caused even more mischief in Russian studies than in examinations of other polities. This essay rests on considerable thought and a limited amount of research on topics close to the theme of entrepreneurial response. There is no intention, however, of presenting a research report on entrepreneurs in the Russian polity, or even laying an adequate groundwork for such research, which ought to be pursued in many directions. The purpose is clarification of the problem, insofar as that preliminary step can be taken by reflection and discussion. At certain points in the analysis a modest element of comparison is introduced. These comparisons are far from fully elaborated, hence they may eventually turn out to be superficial analogies. Given the relative isolation in which so much of Russian area studies has proceeded, even preliminary suggestions of novel analogies to developments elsewhere appear to be appropriate. -
Unit 4: Study Guide Motivation and Emotion
Unit 4: Study Guide Motivation and Emotion In studying motivation, students learn about the forces that influence the strength and direction of behavior including homeostasis. They discover that although early theories of motivation focused on internal instincts, needs, and drives, later theories acknowledged the role of external incentives. The concepts of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are also examined. Students also learn that more recent theories conceptualize motives into at least two distinct types: primary (physiological) and secondary (social). In the case of the primary motives – such as hunger, thirst, pain, and sex – psychologists have identified many of the neural and hormonal mechanisms that are associated with the motivational state. The motives for sex and aggression appear to be more complex than those for hunger and thirst, involving both physiological and environmental mechanisms; however, even hunger appears to be influenced by environmental stimuli, particularly in the case of people who are obese. The study of emotion centers on the complex interactions between cognition and physiological mechanisms that are associated with feelings of love, hate, fear, and jealousy. Different theories – such as James-Lange, Cannon-Bard, Schachter-Singer, and opponent- process theory - provide different explanations of the relationship between physiological changes and emotional experiences. Central to much current theory and research is the concept of arousal; that is, the activation of several physiological systems at the same time, suggesting a relationship between task performance and level of arousal.

The course content and materials for working with new and Psychology remedial readers draw upon theory and research in many fields. The developers of these internationally acclaimed methods understand that among the problems in education is a lack of cross-over from various Neuro-Linguistics areas of investigation and bodies of knowledge in Psychology, Linguistics, and Developmental Kinesiology. In 1993 they set the field of reading research and instruction Pure and Applied on its side with their reseach published in the Orton Annals of Dyslexia (C. McGuinness, et al, Linguistics 1993; Reading Reflex, Simon and Schuster, 1997) in which they demonstrated standard score gains in reading of six times that achieved by other reading methods, by addressing the true nature of the English written code and the three skills needed to teach such a code. In 2000 the McGuinnesses released their Language Wise Verbal Intelligence program (Yale University Press, 2000). The McGuinnesses' latest work, From Sound to Symbol to Meaning, brings the two methods, courses, and materials together in a seamless format for teachers and students.

The Cultural Psychology of Suffering: the Many Meanings of Health in Orissa, India (And Elsewhere)
60 ETHOS The Cultural Psychology of Suffering: The Many Meanings of Health in Orissa, India (and Elsewhere) Richard A. Shweder Abstract In this article, I honor Jerome Bruner’s meaning-centered and person-centered approach to the study of cultural psychology by describing aspects of the cultural psychology of suffering in and around a Hindu temple town in Orissa, India. I also outline the ‘‘big three’’ explanations of illness (biomedical, interpersonal, and moral) on a worldwide scale and recount some of the many meanings associated with the word health, as in the English language survey question ‘‘How would you rate your overall health?’’ [cultural psychology; explanations of illness; meanings of health; Orissa, India] Jerome Bruner is famous for his meaning-centered and person-centered approach to the study of cultural psychology (see, e.g., Bruner 1986, 1990, 1993).1 In this article, I seek to honor the life and work of my former teacher with a thickly substantive (and partly analytic) article on the many meanings of health for people in Orissa, India, where I started conducting research on cultural psychology while still a student taking courses with Jerome Bruner at Harvard University during the late 1960s. Before fully engaging my topic—the cultural psychology of suffering—allow me to glance back a few decades and share a pleasurable memory. At Harvard University in the late 1960s, the Department of Social Relations (where I was a student in the ‘‘Social Anthropology Wing’’) and the Department of Psychology (where Jerry Bruner was a faculty member and the director of the ‘‘Center for Cognitive Studies’’) were located in the vertically and intellectually segmented white towering structure, William James Hall. -

Emotion Review Vol. 2, No. 4 (October 2010) 353–362 © 2010 SAGE Publications and The International Society for Research on Emotion Bob Zajonc and the Unconscious Emotion ISSN 1754-0739 DOI: 10.1177/1754073910375480 er.sagepub.com Piotr Winkielman Department of Psychology, University of California, San Diego, USA and Warsaw School of Social Psychology, Poland Abstract This article focuses on Bob Zajonc’s views on unconscious emotion, especially in the context of the debates about the independ- ence of affect and cognition. Historically, Bob was always interested in the “mere”—basic, fundamental processes. His empirical demonstrations of precognitive and preconscious emotional processes, combined with his elegant expositions of them, sharply contrasted with cold and complex cognitive models. Interestingly, Bob tended to believe that whereas the causes of emotion can be unconscious, the emotional state itself tends to be conscious. However, he reconsidered this assumption and in his later work showed that subjects in affective priming experiments do not experience conscious affect, but instead act on basic preferences. Today, Bob’s insights continue to inspire research on “unconscious emotion.” Keywords consciousness, emotion, Zajonc The relation between emotion and consciousness interested has not only redirected the field but continues to inspire new Bob Zajonc throughout much of his career. Although he never research and new researchers. wrote a comprehensive treatise on “unconscious emotion,” he often thought and wrote about it. Most directly, Bob addressed The Background of the Idea this issue in a short essay published in the book The Nature of The Mere Emotion: Fundamental Questions edited by Paul Ekman and Richard Davison (1994). -
