Rollen- und Einflussdynamiken in agilen Systemen. Eine führungsbezogene Analyse
Authors: Busch Michael W. , Sichler Ralph
Published: October 2023

Dieser literaturgestützte, integrative Beitrag in der Zeitschrift „Gruppe.Interaktion.Organisation. (GIO)“ analysiert die Frage, wie sich Einflussdynamiken in agilen Systemen rollentheoretisch fundieren lassen und welche führungsbezogenen Veränderungen damit einhergehen, wenn formal-hierarchische durch informal-selbstorganisierende Formen der Steuerung (shared leadership) ersetzt bzw. ergänzt werden. Betrachtet werden zunächst personenbezogene Rollenkräfte, die in agilen Systemen im Sinne des Job Crafting-Gedankens auf individuellen Stärken und Präferenzen aufbauen. In Bezug auf Meetings, die für Organisationen, welche in dynamischen Umwelten agieren, zu einem zentralen Erfolgsfaktor werden, wird danach thematisiert, wie sich hier informelle Teamhierarchien manifestieren und inwieweit Interaktionsanalysen dabei helfen können, diese zu erfassen. Unübersichtlicher werdenden Führungsstrukturen sollte die Forschung zukünftig dadurch begegnen, dass sie ihren Fokus von der personenzentrierten Sicht auf die Analyse von Führungsnetzwerken verlagert.

Published: October 2023

A steam-gas power plant (SGPP) combines a gas power plant (GPP) and a steam power plant by using the exhaust gas from the GPP to produce steam in the heat steam recovery generator (HRSG). The SGPP, which has a 200 ton/h HRSG capacity, experienced cracks, ruptures, and fatigue at the connection of the low-pressure evaporator pipe. Fatigue is a common failure mechanism in mechanical components due to thermal stress. However, the exact cause of the failure was unknown; therefore, a root cause analysis was conducted. Analysis included the thickness, metallography, chemical composition, tensile testing, thermography, defect testing, and hardness testing. The research showed thermal stresses were the cause of the low-pressure evaporator HRSG pipe failure. In addition, inspection results revealed a decrease in tensile strength, material hardness, and thermal expansion that exceeded the allowed limit.

Authors: Ferreira Adriano Mota , Marchezini Victor , Mendes Tatiana Sussel Gonçalves , Trejo-Rangel Miguel Angel , Iwama Allan Yu
Published: October 2023

Disaster forensic approaches aim to identify the causes of disasters to support disaster risk management. However, few studies have conducted a systematic literature review of scientific articles that labeled themselves as a forensic approach to disasters. This article provides a qualitative analysis of these forensic studies, focusing on five main issues: (1) the methodologies applied; (2) the forensic approaches used in the disaster risk management phases; (3) the hazards addressed; (4) if the methodologies involve social participation, and using what types of participation; and (5) if there are references to urban planning in the scientific studies analyzed. Our results showed a predominance of the Forensic Investigations of Disasters (FORIN) and Post-Event Review Capability (PERC) methodologies used in isolation or combination. There is a need for methodologies that engage people in participatory FORIN, fostering the co-production of knowledge and action research approaches.

Published: October 2023

Purpose

Bulimia nervosa (BN) is characterized by recurrent binge-eating episodes and inappropriate compensatory behaviors. This study investigated alterations in resting-state surface-based neural activity in BN patients and explored correlations between brain activity and eating behavior.

Methods

A total of 26 BN patients and 28 healthy controls were enrolled. Indirect measurement of cerebral cortical activity and functional connectivity (FC) analyses were performed in Surfstat. A principal component analysis (PCA) model was used to capture the commonalities within the behavioral questionnaires from the BN group.

Results

Compared with the healthy control group, the BN group showed decreased surface-based two-dimensional regional homogeneity in the right superior parietal lobule (SPL). Additionally, the BN group showed decreased FC between the right SPL and the bilateral lingual gyrus and increased FC between the right SPL and the left caudate nucleus and right putamen. In the FC–behavior association analysis, the second principal component (PC2) was negatively correlated with FC between the right SPL and the left caudate nucleus. The third principal component (PC3) was negatively correlated with FC between the right SPL and the left lingual gyrus and positively correlated with FC between the right SPL and the right lingual gyrus.

Conclusion

We revealed that the right SPL undergoes reorganization with respect to specific brain regions at the whole-brain level in BN. In addition, our results suggest a correlation between brain reorganization and maladaptive eating behavior. These findings may provide useful information to better understand the neural mechanisms of BN.

Effects of Point Defects on the Monoclinic Angle of the B19″ Phase in NiTi-Based Shape Memory Alloys
Authors: Li Yingchao , Bakhtiari Sam , Yang Hong , Saunders Martin , Jiang Daqiang , Liu Yinong
Published: October 2023

This study investigated the effects of a variety of point defects on the monoclinic angle of the B19″ martensite in NiTi, including Ni and Ti vacancies, Ni–Ti anti-sites in the lattice, third element substitution, and Ni and Ti enrichments in the B2 stoichiometry. Their effects were studied by density functional theory calculations on the monoclinic B19″ phase as a proxy for the experimentally observed B19′ phase. It was found that vacancies and Ni–Ti anti-sites reduce the monoclinic angle of B19″, whereas third element substitution of Ni and Ti may affect the monoclinic angle in both directions depending on the third element and the host element it replaces. Enriching Ni or Ti content to deviate from the B2 stoichiometry decreases the monoclinic angle. A change in the monoclinic angle of the B19″ phase implies variation in the characteristic strains associated with the transformation. Thus, these findings may provide a new angle on possible interpretations of the variations of recoverable transformation strains experimentally observed of NiTi shape memory alloys.
Geschlechtsinkongruenz – Definition, Diagnosestellung und Transitionsoptionen
Authors: Feicke Antje , Mijuskovic Barbara
Published: October 2023

Durch die zunehmende Entpsychiatrisierung, insbesondere seit der geltenden ICD-11-Klassifikation, und die wachsende gesellschaftliche Akzeptanz suchen Menschen mit Geschlechtsinkongruenz (GI) vermehrt die hausärztliche Praxis auf. Häufig führt die GI zu einer Geschlechtsdysphorie (GD) mit hohem Leidensdruck, weshalb betroffene Personen sich zu sozialen und/oder medizinischen Transitionsschritten entscheiden. Einige Interventionen erfordern eine lebenslange Nachkontrolle, welche auch in der primärversorgenden Praxis erfolgen kann. Daher ist für die optimale Betreuung dieser Patientengruppe ein Basiswissen über die Definition, Diagnosestellung und die Transitionsmöglichkeiten einschliesslich der gängigsten operativen Verfahren mit ihren möglichen Komplikationen essenziell. Dieser Artikel bietet einen Überblick über die Diagnostik und medizinischen Transitionsoptionen für erwachsene Menschen mit GI.
Rayleigh–Taylor Flow with Two Interfaces: The Completed Boussinesq Approximation
Authors: Forbes Lawrence K. , Walters Stephen J. , Turner Ross J.
Published: October 2023

A system of three horizontal fluid layers is considered, with two interfaces separating them. When the upper fluids are of higher density, the system is unstable and Rayleigh–Taylor instabilities occur, as interfacial disturbances grow with time and the fluids overturn. A linearized solution is presented for the corresponding inviscid problem. It reveals a neutrally stable situation when the fluid densities decrease with height. However, whenever a high density fluid lies above a less dense one, the linearized solution predicts exponential growth of the interface between them. With two interfaces present, several different flow scenarios are possible, depending on the two density ratios between the three fluids The interfacial waves can occur either in a sinuous or a varicose formation. A semi-numerical spectral method is used to obtain nonlinear solutions for three-layer viscous fluids, using a recently-published “Completed Boussinesq Approximation”. These nonlinear results are compared with the linearized inviscid solution and also with interface shapes obtained from an SPH algorithm. Results are shown for sinuous and varicose solution types, and inversion layer flows are discussed.

Authors: Arthur Jones Lewis , Owusu Edward , Arthur Sonny Davis
Published: October 2023

Over the last decade, Ghana has witnessed its share of energy instability (between 2014 and 2016 and beyond) and crises that worsened its energy fortunes. In the phase of such challenges to energy security in Ghana, efforts have been made to achieve a secure, adequate and affordable energy supply, the study assesses the energy security of SMEs, as well as the coping strategies adopted by SMEs in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana to confront the challenges of ES. The analysis covered 246 respondents selected from over 500 SMEs. The cluster method and simple random sampling approaches were used to select the respondents. Data collected through questionnaires were edited and cleaned to ensure completeness, consistency and legibility. Descriptive, exploratory, and inferential analyses were applied to the data collected from the respondents. The means and Relative Importance Index (RII) were calculated and used to assess the strength of strategies adopted by the SMEs to cope with the challenges of ES. The study concluded that the themes for assessing the ES of the SMEs were ranked in order of affordability, acceptability, efficiency, and with the lowest being availability. In general, it came out that the SMEs did show better performance in ES. The categories of SMS that better cope with the challenges of ES are the wholesale and retail business sectors. Their coping strategies relate to the various strategies available to them; reducing energy consumption, exploiting renewable energy power, reducing energy consumption, using generators, and temporarily suspending business. The strength for coping is limited by the few options thus making the SMEs more vulnerable to achieving ES.
Catholicism and the Problem of God
Authors: Spencer Mark K.
Published: October 2023

This Element is an overview of the Catholic conception of God and of philosophical problems regarding God that arose during its historical development. After summarizing key Catholic doctrines, the first section considers problems regarding God that arose because Catholicism originally drew on both Jewish and Greek conceptions of God. The second section turns to controversies regarding God as Trinitarian and incarnate, which arose in early church councils, with reference to how that conception developed during the Middle Ages. In the third section, the author considers problems regarding God's actions towards creatures, including creation, providence, predestination, and the nature of divine action in itself. Finally, the last section considers problems regarding how we relate to God. The Element focuses on tensions among different Catholic spiritualities, and on problems having to do with analogical language about God and human desire for God.
Revisiting Coercion as an Element of Prohibited Intervention in International Law
Authors: Milanovic Marko
Published: October 2023

International law prohibits states from intervening in the internal and external affairs of other states, but only if the method of intervention is coercive. This Article argues that coercion can be understood in two different ways or models. First, as coercion-as-extortion, a demand coupled with a threat of harm or the infliction of harm, done to extract some kind of concession from the victim state—in other words, an act targeting the victim state's will or decision-making calculus. Second, as coercion-as-control, an action materially depriving the victim state of its ability to control its sovereign choices. This may be done even through acts like cyber operations that the victim state is entirely unaware of. The Article argues that many of the difficulties surrounding the notion of coercion arise as a consequence of failing to distinguish between these two different models.
Impact of customized electronic duplicate order alerts on microbiology test ordering: Financial and environmental cost savings
Authors: Graham Maryza , Gugasyan Robert , Dharmaraj Devisri , Yap Gillian , Webb Brooke , Dhulia Anjali , Kumar Beena
Published: October 2023

Objective:

To estimate cost savings after implementation of customized electronic duplicate order alerts.

Design:

Alerts were implemented for microbiology tests at the largest public hospital in Victoria, Australia. These alerts were designed to pop up at the point of test ordering to inform the clinician that the test had previously been ordered and to suggest appropriate reordering time frames and indications.

Results:

In a 6-month audit of urine culture (our most commonly ordered test) after alert implementation, 2,904 duplicate requesters proceeded with the request and 2,549 tests were cancelled, for a 47% reduction in test ordering. For fecal polymerase chain reaction (PCR), our second most common test, there was a 54% reduction in test ordering. For our most commonly ordered expensive test, hepatitis C PCR, there was a 42% reduction in test ordering: 25 tests were cancelled.

Cancelled tests resulted in estimated savings of AU$52,382 (US$33,960) for urine culture, AU$34,914 (US$22,442) for fecal PCR, AU$4,506 (US$2,896) for hepatitis C PCR. For cancelled hepatitis B PCR and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) serology, the cost savings was AU$8,472 (US$5445). The estimated financial cost saving in direct hospital costs for these 6 assays was AU$100,274 (US$67,925) over the 6-month period. Environmental waste cost saving by weight was estimated to be 280 kg. Greenhouse gas footprint, measured in carbon dioxide equivalent emissions for cancelled EBV and CMV serology tests, resulted in a saving of at least 17,711 g, equivalent to driving 115 km in a standard car.

Conclusion:

Customized alerts issued at the time of test ordering can have enormous impacts on reducing cost, waste, and unnecessary testing.
Dynamics and proliferation of turbulent stripes in plane-Poiseuille and plane-Couette flows
Authors: Marensi E. , Yalnız G. , Hof B.
Published: October 2023

The first long-lived turbulent structures observable in planar shear flows take the form of localized stripes, inclined with respect to the mean flow direction. The dynamics of these stripes is central to transition, and recent studies proposed an analogy to directed percolation where the stripes’ proliferation is ultimately responsible for the turbulence becoming sustained. In the present study we focus on the internal stripe dynamics as well as on the eventual stripe expansion, and we compare the underlying mechanisms in pressure- and shear-driven planar flows, respectively, plane-Poiseuille and plane-Couette flow. Despite the similarities of the overall laminar–turbulence patterns, the stripe proliferation processes in the two cases are fundamentally different. Starting from the growth and sustenance of individual stripes, we find that in plane-Couette flow new streaks are created stochastically throughout the stripe whereas in plane-Poiseuille flow streak creation is deterministic and occurs locally at the downstream tip. Because of the up/downstream symmetry, Couette stripes, in contrast to Poiseuille stripes, have two weak and two strong laminar turbulent interfaces. These differences in symmetry as well as in internal growth give rise to two fundamentally different stripe splitting mechanisms. In plane-Poiseuille flow splitting is connected to the elongational growth of the original stripe, and it results from a break-off/shedding of the stripe's tail. In plane-Couette flow splitting follows from a broadening of the original stripe and a division along the stripe into two slimmer stripes.
The Historical Gender Gap Index: A Longitudinal and Spatial Assessment of Sweden, 1870–1990
Authors: Perrin Faustine , Karlsson Tobias , Kok Joris
Published: October 2023

This paper investigates the evolution of gender equality in Sweden during a phase characterized by industrialization, urbanization, and demographic transition. To this end, we build a database with quantitative indicators to construct a spatial Historical Gender Gap Index. We find that after a period of stagnation, Sweden made significant progress in closing the gender gap from the 1940s onward to reach the high level of gender equality that it is now famous for. The empirical exploration of the relationship between gender equality and economic development reveals that regions displaying higher gender equality performed economically better than less gender-equal regions.
The improvement effect of food additive analysis in patients with anorexia nervosa
Authors: Yan Xiaoping
Published: October 2023

Background

Anorexia nervosa is a severe psychological disorder, and current treatment of anorexia nervosa relies on psychotherapy and medical nutritional support. The study applied food additives to the relevant treatment, aiming to help improve the patients’ diet.

Subjects and Methods

Patients who met the diagnostic criteria of anorexia nervosa were randomly selected and divided into experimental and control groups, with 25 patients in each group. The experimental group received food additive-assisted treatment, while the control group received only conventional treatment. Before and after treatment, the patients’ body mass index (BMI) and height were measured, and eating disorders were assessed using the EDE-Q. The resultant data were analyzed using SPSS22.0.

Results

After treatment, the BMI of the experimental group was significantly higher than that before treatment (F=18.42, P<0.05), while the BMI of the control group did not change significantly (F=9.71, P>0.05). In the EDE-Q scale assessment, the experimental group scored lower than the control group in terms of frequency of binge eating, frequency of emesis, and restriction of eating factor, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).

Conclusions

After treatment, patients in the experimental group showed a significant increase in BMI, and the frequency of binge eating, frequency of emetic, and restriction of eating factor scores were lower than those of the control group. This suggests that food additives may have potential efficacy in alleviating the symptoms of anorexia nervosa.

Authors: Li Zhengning , Xue Yuan , Li Chaoqian
Published: October 2023

Background

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a severe lung disease, and its condition can lead to depressive disorders in patients. Understanding the subjective sleep quality of ARDS patients with depressive disorder conditions and their influencing factors is essential for developing effective interventions and improving patients’ sleep quality.

Subjects and Methods

Sixty patients with depression were selected as the study subjects and randomly divided into experimental and control groups, with 30 people in each group. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Social Desirability Scale (SDS), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Life Event Scale (LES), and SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) were used for assessment. The data collected were analyzed by the relationship between PSQI and the results of the other six rating scales using SPSS23.0.

Results

Sleep disorders were found in 77.8% of 60 patients with depression. The total score and factors of PSQI were significantly correlated with SCL-90 somatization, obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression, anxiety, and total mean score (P<0.05). The PSQI was positively correlated with SAI in SAS and STAI (P<0.01) but not correlated with TAI in STAI (P>0.05). The somatization disorder factor in SDS was significantly correlated with the PSQI factors and total scores except for the sleep persistence factor (P<0.05). The daytime dysfunction factor in PSQI was significantly correlated with the full score of social support (P<0.05), whereas there was no significant correlation between PSQI and LES (P>0.05).

Conclusions

Depressive disorders in ARDS patients hurt their subjective sleep quality.

Authors: Liu Wenbo
Published: October 2023

Background

At present, students’ learning pressure is increasing, and many schools have introduced psychomusical therapy from the perspective of ideological and political courses to relieve students’ mental anxiety.

Subjects and Methods

In this study, 100 students with mental anxiety disorder in a high school were selected as research objects and randomly divided into a control group and a study group. The control group was treated with clomipramine only. The study group was treated with ideological and political curriculum visual threshold psychomusic therapy based on clomipramine therapy and the self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) was used for comparative analysis. Finally, Minitab was used for statistical analysis.

Results

After 3 months of the experiment, the anxiety scale score of middle school students in the control group changed from 65 points to 54 points; The anxiety scale scores of middle school students in the study group changed from 64 to 46. In the study group, the psychological pressure of students before and after the experiment was significantly different (P<0.05). The experimental results show that the combination of ideological and political curriculum visual psychomusical therapy with drug therapy can alleviate students’ mental anxiety.

Conclusions

In this study, the introduction of visual psychomusic in ideological and political courses into drug therapy has a positive impact on student’s mental anxiety caused by study pressure, and can also arouse other schools’ attention to mental health, provide new ideas for the popularization of psychological counselling, and promote the development of student’s mental health.

Analysis of the influencing factors of increasing farmers’ income, urban-rural income gap, and anxiety disorder
Authors: Huang Huiping
Published: October 2023

Background

With the rapid changes in the urban and rural economic structure, the issue of increasing farmers’ income and the income gap between urban and rural residents are continuously expanding. With the rapid changes in both, farmers’ anxiety is becoming increasingly severe. With the advancement of rural land transfer and agricultural modernization, there have been fundamental changes in farmers’ production patterns and lifestyles, which have had a profound impact on their mental health.

Subjects and Methods

This article selects 156 farmers from a village and randomly divides them into an experimental group and a control group, each consisting of 78 farmers. The experimental group conducted psychological health recording tests under the exploration of innovative farmer income models; The control group was engaged in routine income activities without any changes. The experiment used Excel software and SPSS20.0 software to statistically analyze the results.

Results

The results showed that there was a significant difference in anxiety symptoms between the two groups of farmers after innovating their income (P<0.05). The anxiety symptoms of the experimental group of farmers have significantly improved, and the proportion of people with reduced anxiety symptoms is as high as 90%.

Conclusions

To sum up, the emergence of farmers’ anxiety disorder is related to many factors, such as agricultural production, market contraction, and imperfect rural infrastructure. Innovating farmers’ income models can effectively alleviate the anxiety symptoms of farmers.

Authors: Hu Zhihong
Published: October 2023

Background

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is teenagers’ most common mental and behavioral disorder. Students with ADHD often tend to fidget with their hands and feet while attending in-person English classes. This behavior can impede their ability to engage effectively in learning, consequently leading to suboptimal academic outcomes. The online teaching mode is studied to improve the English learning effect of students with hyperactivity disorder.

Subjects and Methods

The study divided 100 ADHD students in a city into an experimental group and a control group, in which 50 ADHD students in the experimental group were taught in English online teaching mode. In comparison, 50 students in the control group received English offline teaching mode. The study used the attention deficit hyperactivity disorder rating scale (SNAP-IV) to measure and finally compared the final scores of the two groups of students from September 2021 to January 2022 with the SNAP-IV score.

Results

The data were analyzed by SPSS23.0 statistical software. The final English scores of the experimental group and the control group were (80.24±1.24) and (75.31±1.36) respectively, and the SNAP-IV scores of the experimental group and the control group were (12.2±2.7) and (15.1±2.3) respectively. The experimental group was superior to the control group, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P <0.05).

Conclusions

Online English teaching can effectively reduce students’ divergent attention and improve students’ learning concentration.

Authors: Li Yufeng
Published: October 2023

Background

Anxiety refers to the intense, excessive, and persistent anxiety and fear in daily life, which will peak in a few minutes. Especially in online shopping, patients with anxiety will aggravate their anxiety because of the slow delivery of the traditional logistics supply chain management model. To reduce consumers’ anxiety, the network distribution system of logistics supply chain management mode is optimized.

Subjects and Methods

This study divided 200 patients with anxiety disorder in a city into a control group and an experimental group. In the experimental group, 100 patients used the optimized logistics supply chain management mode for online shopping. In contrast, in the control group, 100 patients used the traditional logistics supply chain management mode for online shopping. The study also used the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) for psychological measurement and compared the SAS scores of the two groups of consumers for two months.

Results

The data were analyzed by SPSS23.0. The SAS score of the experimental group was (1.63±0.23), and that of the control group was (1.81±0.59). The SAS scores of patients in the experimental group were better than those in the control group, and there were apparent differences between the two groups (P < 0.05).

Conclusions

Authors: Qian Rong
Published: October 2023

Background

Aiming at the current situation of employment anxiety disorder of students in higher vocational colleges and universities, this study integrates the idea of integration of production and education into the ideological education of higher vocational colleges and universities, so as to optimize students’ employment anxiety.

Subjects and Methods

In a higher education setting, 100 students with employment anxiety disorder were chosen as study participants. The 100 participants in the study were randomly divided into two groups: the integrated teaching group and the standard teaching group. Civics education was combined with the integration of business and education for students in the integrated teaching group, while only Civics education was used for students in the traditional teaching group. A self-made employment anxiety scale was used to assess each student’s level of anxiety following a month of teacher training. Using SPSS23.0, all experimental data for this investigation were statistically evaluated.

Results

After one month of training, 32 students in the integrated group changed from severe to mild anxiety, and 18 were no longer anxious. In contrast, only five students in the traditional teaching group changed from severe to mild anxiety, while the others still had severe employment anxiety.

Conclusions

Integrating the idea of integration of production and education into the ideological education of higher vocational colleges and universities can effectively alleviate students’ employment anxiety.

Psychologist Sigmund Freud believes that literature and art can better channel individual emotional stress, so the study is based on the course of civics teaching joint innovation of aesthetic education teaching to achieve a positive and effective intervention in the mental health of college students.

Subjects and Methods

This research took depressed college students from one university as the research subjects. They were divided into a control group (conventional civics teaching method) and an experimental group (course civics combined with art appreciation method), and the students were guided to improve the dissolution of depression and depressive symptoms. The intervention time was six weeks and was assessed with the help of the Self-Depression Scale for Depression (SDS) and the Quality of Life Measurement Scale (WHOQOL-BREF).

Results

After the experimental intervention, the SDS scores of the experimental group and the WHOQOL-BREF sub-scales were higher than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The mean score of the SDS scale in the experimental group had a score difference of more than 15 points before and after the experiment.

Conclusions

The joint study of Civics and Aesthetic Education gives students a new cognition of their own emotions and thoughts, and the change of “cognitive bias” makes the depression symptoms of college students to a greater extent.
The integration of ceramic art design and color visual aesthetics on hyperactivity disorder viewers
Authors: Lv Chao
Published: October 2023

Background

ADHD, also known as Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), has inattention, hyperactivity, conduct disorder, and impulsive behavior as its main clinical manifestations. Visual working memory load is one of the factors that can affect the individual’s attentional performance, so the study proposes to intervene in patients with ADHD with the help of a training form that combines artistic design and the visual aesthetics of colors.

Subjects and Methods

The correlation between theatrical artistic expression and employees’ resistance to PTSD
Authors: Zhang Junhe
Published: October 2023

Background

Drama art, as a diverse art form, provides practitioners with a unique way of self-expression through role-playing, situational simulation, and emotional expression. Personnel engaged in theatrical performances often experience psychological injuries due to uncontrollable factors such as insufficient rehearsals, which can develop Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Based on this background, this study aims to analyze the correlation between the two.

Subjects and Methods

This study used both qualitative and quantitative methods. Through in-depth interviews, questionnaire surveys, and psychological tests, 300 theatrical art practitioners were selected for a 12-month follow-up study. Evaluate the patient’s status using the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Self-Rating Scale (PTSD-SS). During the experiment, SPSS 24.0 was used for statistical data analysis.

Results

The study found that compared to practitioners who are less involved in theatrical expression, practitioners who frequently participate in theatrical art expression have a lower proportion of PTSD after experiencing traumatic events. In addition, practitioners who delve into theatrical role-playing and emotional expression have more positive and healthy emotional regulation abilities and strategies for coping with trauma.

Conclusions

The expression of theatrical art provides practitioners with a powerful psychological adjustment tool, which helps them confront and prevent post-traumatic psychological disorders. This provides a new approach to treatment and intervention in the mental health field and brings new value and significance to drama art education and practice.

Authors: Lu Tao
Published: October 2023

Background

To adapt to the development of the industry, universities actively explore the training mode of applied financial investment talents. However, whether students with social anxiety disorder can adjust and grow smoothly in this new teaching environment has not been thoroughly studied. This study aims to analyze the specific impact of a new applied financial investment talent training model on students with social anxiety disorder.

Subjects and Methods

Six hundred students majoring in financial investment from a particular university were selected, of which 100 were diagnosed with social anxiety disorder. In a 6-month new teaching model experiment, students’ learning attitudes, social abilities, and emotional fluctuations were comprehensively evaluated using the Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS).

Results

Research has found that students with social anxiety disorder significantly improve their learning engagement and initiative under the new training mode. Among them, 73% of patients stated that they experienced a significant sense of achievement in group collaboration and practical applications, and social anxiety symptoms were alleviated to a certain extent. However, some students still feel pressure during large-scale public demonstrations or speeches.

Conclusions

The new model of cultivating applied financial investment talents in universities can, to some extent, help students with social anxiety disorders establish confidence, improve social skills, and encourage them to participate more actively in learning. However, at the same time, in response to their specific needs, universities still need to strengthen mental health education and personalized guidance to ensure the comprehensiveness and fairness of education.
