Minor cosmopolitan
(2020)
Cosmopolitanism is a theory about how to live together. The earliest formulation of cosmopolitanism in the West could be dated to as early as the fourth century BCE in ancient Greece by Diogenes, who famously said that he was a “citizen of the world – kosmopolitês,” an idea later picked up by Immanuel Kant, the German philosopher who proposed a philosophy of a world of “perpetual peace.” When cosmopolitanism first emerged as a political idea for modernity in the European Enlightenment, the project embraced the liberal promises of a globalizing economy, yet remained oblivious to, and even complicit with, capitalism, slavery and colonialism. It centered on the male, bourgeois, and white liberal subject, irrespective of the ongoing disenfranchisement, dehumanization, and extermination of its Others.
At the dawn of the 21st century, and in the wake of rapid globalization however, academics, politicians and other pundits enthusiastically declared cosmopolitanism to be no longer just a philosophical ideal, but a real, existing fact. Across the globe, they argued, people were increasingly thinking and feeling beyond the nation, considering themselves citizens of the world. Meanwhile, the global ecological crisis worsens, fascism with different outfits returns in many places of the world, the repression of women, sexual, racial, class and other minorities on a global scale persists; the so called “refugee crisis” inundates the mediascape and political spectacle. Not much of those cosmopolitan promises have left it seems. Perhaps precisely because of this, however, it seems to be an absolute necessity for scholars, activists, and artists today to face the complexities and promises cosmopolitanism has raised although not adequately answered. What has happened to the cosmopolitan promise, and who betrayed it?
“Minor cosmopolitanisms” wishes to challenge the underlying premises of ‘major’ cosmopolitanism without letting go of the unfulfilled emancipatory potential of the concept at large. It wants to rethink cosmopolitanisms in the plural, and trace multiple origins and trajectories of cosmopolitan thought from across the globe. Regarding cosmopolitanisms as emerging through diverse locally, historically and politically specific practices, minor cosmopolitanisms are predicated on difference without abandoning the quest for a shared vision of conviviality and justice. It seeks to answer: how to live at once with our difference and shared struggle? How to think our complicity with even those we most resist? Who sustains the world’s flourishing despite all this?
Thoroughly revised and updated, this third edition offers a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the social psychology of aggression, covering all the relevant major theories, individual differences, situational factors, and applied contexts. Understanding the causes, forms, and consequences of aggression and violence is critical for dealing with these harmful forms of social behavior. Addressing a range of sub-topics, the firstpart deals with the definition and measurement of aggression, presents major theories, examines the development of aggression and discusses individual and gender differences in aggressive behaviour. It covers the role of situational factors in eliciting aggression and the impact of exposure to violence in the media. The second part examines specific forms and manifestations of aggression, including chapters on aggression in everyday contexts and in the family, sexual aggression, intergroup aggression, and terrorism. The new edition also includes additional coverage of gender differences, gun violence, and terrorism, to reflect the latest research developments in the field. Alsodiscussing strategies for reducing and preventing aggression, this bookis essential reading for students and researchers in psychology and related disciplines, as well as practitioners andpolicy makers.
Dieses Buch zeigt Methoden und Instrumente zur Erfassung und Bewertung von gesundheitsrelevanten Merkmalen von Arbeitssituationen. Damit bietet es die Grundlagen für die Ableitung von arbeitsgestalterischen Maßnahmen und personbezogebnen Interventionen, um eingetretene Beeinträchtigungen nachhaltig zu beheben bzw. um diesen vorzubeugen. Die Gesundheitsberichte aller Krankenkassen
weisen aus, dass die durch körperliche Belastungen und Arbeitsumweltbedingungen
verursachten Erkrankungen von Erwerbstätigen rückläufig sind. Zugleich ist eine
Zunahme von durch vorwiegend psychische Belastungen verursachten Erkrankungen
wie psychosomatische Störungen, Depressionen oder Burnout zu verzeichnen. Anhand von Fallbeispielen werden im vorliegenden Buch das methodische Vorgehen zur Datenerhebung,
deren formale Auswertung sowie die aus den Ergebnissen ableitbaren
Schlussfolgerungen für Maßnahmen diskutiert. Es richtet sich vor allem an
jene Experten (Ingenieure, Betriebsärzte, Arbeitspsychologen,
Sicherheitsfachkräfte) die in der betrieblichen Praxis mit der Durchführung von
Gefährdungsanalysen befasst sind.

In reading, word frequency is commonly regarded as the major bottom-up determinant for the speed of lexical access. Moreover, language processing depends on top-down information, such as the predictability of a word from a previous context. Yet, however, the exact role of top-down predictions in visual word recognition is poorly understood: They may rapidly affect lexical processes, or alternatively, influence only late post-lexical stages. To add evidence about the nature of top-down processes and their relation to bottom-up information in the timeline of word recognition, we examined influences of frequency and predictability on event-related potentials (ERPs) in several sentence reading studies. The results were related to eye movements from natural reading as well as to models of word recognition. As a first and major finding, interactions of frequency and predictability on ERP amplitudes consistently revealed top-down influences on lexical levels of word processing (Chapters 2 and 4). Second, frequency and predictability mediated relations between N400 amplitudes and fixation durations, pointing to their sensitivity to a common stage of word recognition; further, larger N400 amplitudes entailed longer fixation durations on the next word, a result providing evidence for ongoing processing beyond a fixation (Chapter 3). Third, influences of presentation rate on ERP frequency and predictability effects demonstrated that the time available for word processing critically co-determines the course of bottom-up and top-down influences (Chapter 4). Fourth, at a near-normal reading speed, an early predictability effect suggested the rapid comparison of top-down hypotheses with the actual visual input (Chapter 5). The present results are compatible with interactive models of word recognition assuming that early lexical processes depend on the concerted impact of bottom-up and top-down information. We offered a framework that reconciles the findings on a timeline of word recognition taking into account influences of frequency, predictability, and presentation rate (Chapter 4).

Adipositas
(2008)
Das Menschenbild, auf dem die meisten Theorien und Modelle in der Arbeits- und Organisationspsychologie indirekt beruhen, beschreibt den Menschen als eher passives Wesen. Arbeitnehmer reagieren auf die Anforderungen ihrer Arbeitsrolle, führen die Bestimmungen des Arbeitsvertrages sowie Arbeitsaufträge und -anweisungen aus. Gleichermaßen werden die Motivation und Gesundheit von Arbeitenden in der Regel als Folge von Arbeits- und Umgebungsbedingungen betrachtet. Dieser Perspektive, die den arbeitenden Menschen als "Spielstein" seiner Umgebung darstellt, wird zunehmend die Betrachtung des aktiven Menschen entgegengesetzt. Arbeitende sind nicht nur passive Auftragsempfänger, sondern sie können auch proaktiv sein, die Initiative ergreifen und ungefragt innovative Lösungen entwickeln. In ihrem Vortrag wird Doris Fay eigene Arbeiten zu Proaktivität und Innovativität vorstellen. Es werden die Arbeitsbedingungen, die zur Entwicklung von aktiven Handlungen beitragen, betrachtet und Konsequenzen von aktivem Handeln und Ansätze zur Selbstregulation diskutiert.

Die Adipositas und ihre mitunter schwerwiegenden Auswirkungen nimmt in öffentlichen Diskussionen einen immer größeren Stellenwert ein. In Deutschland leiden neben 37 Millionen Erwachsenen derzeit rund 2 Millionen Kinder an Übergewicht oder Adipositas. Das Arbeitsbuch wendet sich an die Eltern betroffener Kinder. Erklärt wird die Entstehung der Adipositas, zudem sind Informationen zu gesunder Ernährung und deren Umsetzung im Alltag enthalten. Zusätzlich wird auf den wichtigen Faktor der Bewegung sowie eine mögliche erneute Gewichtszunahme eingegangen. Entwickelt wurde das Arbeitsbuch im Rahmen einer Studie und spricht die teilnehmenden Eltern an, deren Kinder sich aufgrund von Adipositas in einer Reha-Klinik befinden. Die enthaltenen Informationen und Alltagshilfen sind jedoch auch für alle anderen betroffenen Eltern relevant.
