Language Analysis For Determination Of Origin: Objective Evidence For Refugee Status Determination
Authors: Patrick Peter L. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractRefugees are persons who can show ‘a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or political opinion’ in their home country. Not all speech and text evidence is commonly used in the processes of linguistic analysis that LADO (Language Analysis for Determination of Origin) comprises – indeed, LADO commonly involves collecting small amounts of speech specifically for linguistic analysis, and ignoring the rest – although linguistic analyses of various types (for example, discourse or narrative analysis) consider the wider evidence base. Many interviews and statements given by asylum seekers in the Refugee Status Determination process also contain information relevant to assessing their linguistic background, repertoire, and experience more broadly, which is necessary to properly frame and inform the narrower LADO analysis that typically occurs. This article discusses the use of language analysis to determine refugee status. It considers linguistic socialization and speech communities, institutional positions in LADO, institutional pressures on LADO, linguists as LADO analysts, standards of expertise for LADO linguists, and the role of native speakers in LADO.
Grammaticalization and syntax: a functional view
Authors: DeLancey Scott 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis article analyses the role of grammaticalisation theory in functional-typological syntax. It explains that the role of grammaticalisation theory is to explain how fixed, recurrent constructions develop from transparent, motivated concatenations of words. Since such syntactic, often synchronically arbitrary grammatical structure is characteristic of all but the very freshest pidgin protogrammars, a theory of grammaticalization is essential to the functionalist programme. This article also discusses the origin and nature of syntactic categories and describes complex syntax constructions.
Grammaticalization and word order change
Authors: Sun Chaofen , Traugott Elizabeth Closs 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis article examines the relation between word order change and grammaticalisation. It argues that word order change understood as the linearization of word or constituent order alone is not grammaticalisation and suggests that these two are so often intertwined that their interdependence deserves close attention. It outlines examples of three sites in which word order changes can be said to be closely tied to grammaticalization: clause structure, argument structure, and modifier structure within the noun phrase.
Grammaticalization and semantic change
Authors: Eckardt Regine 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis article explores the relation between semantic change and grammaticalisation. It discusses the micro-steps of semantic change based on truth-conditional semantics and its extensions into pragmatics and relates the macro-trends in grammaticalization that have been proposed in the literature. It argues that modal, emotive, and discourse particles also emerge by semantic reanalysis and hence show grammaticalization in a semantic sense, even though they are more extragrammatical in a morphosyntactic sense.
Pragmatic aspects of grammaticalization
Authors: Nicolle Steve 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis article aims to describe and evaluate some recent accounts of pragmatic aspects of grammaticalization. It examines inferences that contribute to grammaticalization, the limits of the contribution of pragmatic inference to grammaticalisation, and how inferential meaning becomes encoded meaning. It argues that the inferences, or interpretations, which contribute to grammaticalisation are those which are intended by the speaker and which are routinely associated with particular expressions.
Negative cycles and grammaticalization
Authors: Hansen Maj‐Britt Mosegaard 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis article analyses the grammaticalisation of the negative linguistic cycles. It suggests that it is plausible to assume that negation must be a universal feature of language and that negation appears to invariably receive overt expression in language. It considers the form of clause negation that is considered most basic in a given language, which applies productively in declarative main clauses, and which does not involve quantifiers. It also discusses Jespersen's cycle.
The grammaticalization of coordinating interclausal connectives
Authors: Ramat Anna Giacalone , Mauri Caterina 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis article discusses issues relevant to the grammaticalisation of coordinating interclausal connectives. The markers included in this analysis as coordinating connectives are identified on the basis of their function, rather than on the basis of their morphosyntactic and distributional properties. It discusses the notion of interclausal connective and explains that two clauses can be linked in a number of different semantic relations either by being simply juxtaposed or by means of explicit linking devices and this distinction is commonly referred to as the opposition between asyndetic and syndetic constructions.
The History and Current State of Research on Psychology of Religion
Authors: Hood Ralph W. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractReligion and spirituality were major concerns of the early American psychologists. Largely influenced by the American Protestant experience of revivals, psychologists focused upon conversion using the biblical narrative of Paul as a prototype of sudden radical transformation. Many of the early psychologists sought to give reductionist explanations for both religion and spiritual phenomena as they sought to dissociate psychology from the popular cultural view of parapsychology and spiritualism. William James was the most notable exception, insisting on the possible ontological reality of the objects of both religious and psychic phenomena. Psychoanalysis influenced by the French medical tradition continued exploring religion, with Sigmund Freud offering an explanation of religion first simply as an illusion but finally as a mass delusion, thereby linking religion and madness. As American psychology sought to emulate the German tradition of experimental psychology within the limits of natural science, interest in religion waned. The reemergence of a psychology of religion came in the 1960s, partly influenced by interim concerns with authoritarianism and prejudice and cognitive dissonance theory, all of which had a marginal concern with religion. The cultural unrest of the 1960s sparked renewed interest in new religious movements and psychedelic states of consciousness, both of which fueled the psychology of religion. The field is now well established with a division in the American Psychological Association (APA) and an APA journal. Numerous other journals assure that the psychology of religion and now spirituality will continue to be identifiable areas of specialty within psychology.
Personality, Spirituality, and Religion
Authors: Rose Eric D. , Exline Julie J. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThe current review explores advances made over the last 10 years (1999–2009) in research linking personality with spirituality and religion. Contributions from the fields of behavior genetics, attachment, the trait approach, and the study of values are analyzed to address four major topics. First, the roots of religious and spiritual life as well as pathways that lead both toward and away from spirituality and religiousness are described. Second, recent contributions to the controversial discussion of religious and spiritual prosociality are presented. Third, evidence for a connection between religiousness and spirituality with self-control and morality is explored. And finally, recent advances in the study of prejudicial attitudes and behavior on the part of religious and spiritual individuals are reviewed. The chapter concludes with a brief critique of the current state of empirical research linking personality with spirituality and religion, along with ideas for enhancing future research.
Spiritual Development During Childhood and Adolescence
Authors: Boyatzis Chris J. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractSocial-scientific research on spiritual and religious development is burgeoning. Amid this growth, there is progress but lack of consensus in defining spiritual development. A social-ecology model of spiritual development is offered, with a focus on the family context as well as other social contexts. Studies that have examined the interaction effects of multiple dimensions of religiosity and spirituality on children's outcomes are highlighted. Adolescent well-being has received extensive attention, with ample evidence of the positive role of religion and spirituality in youth development but uncertainty on the causal mechanisms. Many future directions are offered, including a call for refined methodology with longitudinal design and in-depth qualitative methods as well as greater incorporation of perspectives outside of psychology: cultural anthropology, comparative religion, and religious education/children's theology.
Motherhood and Female Faith Development: Feminine Tapestry of Religion, Spirituality, Creativity, and Intuition
Authors: Rayburn Carole A. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThe influence of mothers, motherhood, and the concept of Mother of God and Mother God on female faith development are examined in light of religion, spirituality, creativity, and intuition. It is held that it is necessary for the female child to learn of egalitarian relationships in creation so that she may assume her balanced and equal place in the world as a creation of nature and a Higher Power. These lessons she most often learns at the knee of a loving, protective, wise, and caring mother. The importance for girls and women to consider gender issues along with development of faith, religion, spirituality, and theology cannot be overemphasized.
Counseling and Psychotherapy Within and Across Faith Traditions
Authors: McMinn Mark R. , Snow Kimberly N. , Orton Justin J. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis chapter begins with general considerations for religiously and spiritually oriented psychotherapy, including the importance of seeing religion and spirituality as dimensions of cultural diversity, considering clients’ welfare and autonomy, and maintaining competence. Three types of religious and spiritual intervention approaches are then discussed: assimilative, accommodative, and collaborative. Assimilative approaches introduce spiritual interventions or considerations into a standard psychotherapy approach. Accommodative approaches involve adapting a standard psychotherapy regimen to include religious or spiritual matters. Collaborative approaches entail a mental health professional and religious leader working in tandem for the sake of clients’ welfare. Next, specific issues related to counseling within (when the client and counselor share the same beliefs) and across (when the client and counselor hold differing beliefs) faith traditions are offered. The chapter concludes with some thoughts regarding future directions of religious and spiritual interventions in counseling and psychotherapy.
Spiritual Aspects of Jungian Analytical Psychology: Individuation, Jung's Psychological Equivalent of a Spiritual Journey
Authors: Wagenseller Joseph P. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis chapter includes a brief description of the life and work of Carl Gustav Jung, MD, with particular attention to his personal experience of the objective psyche and its articulation into a theoretical framework. Special emphasis is placed upon the transpersonal/spiritual dimension of the psyche and the applicability of Jung's theory and practice to achieve a dynamic relationship with the self. The individual's experience with the transpersonal aspect of the psyche is illustrated with examples from symptoms, dreams, and the phenomenon of synchronicity. Jung's psychological equivalent of a spiritual journey, known as the individuation process, is described and illustrated as an option for those for whom other, perhaps more traditional religious faiths and practices are no longer meaningfully effective. In conclusion, recommendations are made for future study and research.
Spirituality, Emotions, and Physical Health
Authors: Park Crystal L. , Slattery Jeanne M. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis chapter focuses on relations between religion/spirituality (R/S) and physical health, focusing on the role of emotions as mediating these links. First, we review the literature regarding the effects of R/S on physical health and the effects of physical health on R/S. We then present a model of the reciprocal influences of R/S and health and the pathways of positive and negative emotions as important mediators of the R/S–health relationships. We review and summarize theory and research findings regarding these links and conclude the chapter by suggesting questions that may guide future research.
Spirituality, Religion, and Psychological Counseling
Authors: Plante Thomas G. , Thoresen Carl E. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractA substantial majority of people believe in God in some form and consider themselves to be spiritual, religious, or both. However, most psychologists and other mental health professionals perceive themselves as not religious and have little if any training in spirituality and religious diversity. Psychologists can use spiritual principles and practices to better serve clients, even if they do not share the same or any religious or spiritual perspective. We review and illustrate the emerging relationship between psychology, spirituality, and religion and its current status. Benefits of religious/spiritual engagement for physical, social, and mental health are outlined. We also comment on religious hazards to health. Spiritual tools commonly found in major religious traditions are discussed and suggested for use by counseling psychologists and others under certain conditions. A brief spiritual inquiry method is presented. Results of a spiritually focused intervention using spiritual practices serve as an example. Ethical and research issues are also discussed, along with important questions to consider.
Positive Psychology and Spirituality: A Virtue-Informed Approach to Well-Being
Authors: Ciarrocchi Joseph W. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis chapter brings together a number of observations from scholars in disparate fields critiquing the character strengths and virtue model of positive psychology in light of classical and contemporary virtue ethics. The legitimacy of these criticisms is acknowledged and some suggestions are made for broadening the character strengths and virtue approach to incorporate practical strategies based on these criticisms as well as offering conceptual adjustments for creating a virtue-informed positive psychology. Data were reviewed indicating that contemporary culture fosters psychological myopia, thus making character-building strategies highly relevant. Finally, on both conceptual and empirical grounds the utility of religion and spirituality for countering psychological myopia and self-regulation failure was highlighted with an emphasis on the role spirituality plays in building positive emotions.
Spirituality, Resilience, and Positive Emotions
Authors: Smith Bruce W. , Ortiz J. Alexis , Wiggins Kathryn T. , Bernard Jennifer F. , Dalen Jeanne 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis chapter examines the relationships between spirituality, resilience, and positive emotions. We begin by defining all three constructs, important related constructs, and theoretical models that may help us frame our understanding of the relationship between spirituality, resilience, and positive emotions. Next, we review the research and thinking about the relationship between (1) spirituality and positive emotion, (2) spirituality and resilience, and (3) positive emotions and resilience. These reviews suggest that healthy spirituality may be related to increases in both resilience and positive emotions and that resilience and positive emotions may have a reciprocal influence on each other. Finally, we present a preliminary model of the relationship between spirituality, resilience, and positive emotions and make suggestions for research that may increase our understanding of the relationship between them.
Consciousness, Spirituality, and Postmaterialist Science: An Empirical and Experiential Approach
Authors: Schwartz Gary E. 
Published: February 2013

AbstractConsciousness and spirituality are inherently experiential processes. The definition of “spirituality” ranges from (1) personal opinions regarding the meaning of life and being part of something greater, through (2) experiences of transcendental states and oneness, to (3) beliefs regarding the existence of spirit, life after death, reincarnation, angels and guides, and some sort of omnipresent infinite intelligence and power. Academic psychology has typically taken a materialistic view toward consciousness and spirituality; both are interpreted as neurobiological processes shaped by genetics and developmental and cultural factors. However, as reviewed in this chapter, contemporary consciousness research provides emerging proof-of-concept evidence suggesting that (1) mind is separate from brain, (2) spirit and soul are comparable to energy and information that persist in the vacuum of space, (3) people can receive intuitive information that is accurate and useful in their individual and collective lives, and (4) physical and psychological health can be fostered by active loving spiritual processes. The evidence points toward the emergence of a postmaterialist paradigm in psychology and science in general.
Conclusion
Authors: Miller Lisa J. 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
Spiritual psychology, in science and practice, propels psychology into the 21st-century consciousness-based sciences rather than strictly a 20th-century material science. The current postmaterial spiritual psychology propagates a clarification and broadening of ontology. A consciousness-driven psychology unites the human inner life and surrounding physical events into a singular inquiry addressed by a range of formerly separate disciplines. From this postmaterial view, a human science sees human mind as an extension of the fabric of universal consciousness yet dialectically in dialog through perception, awareness, and choice. Science now can wed the vast majority of human history, understood through transcendent cosmology and religion, by exploring an intentional universe.
Gendering Food
Authors: Counihan Carole 
Published: February 2013

Abstract
One of the central questions in feminism is whether gender matters. In the case of food activism, gender is also a controversial issue. In particular, one may ask how foodways—the beliefs and behaviors surrounding food production, distribution, and consumption—constrain and empower men and women to become political actors, or how gender power and identity are enacted in food activism. In this article, the author reviews the literature on food and gender and examines how gender can enlighten the study of food activism. She draws on her own ethnographic research on food, culture, and gender in Sardinia and Florence in Italy, and in Pennsylvania and Colorado in the United States. Using a food-centered life history methodology, the author has investigated people's depictions of the role of food in their lives. Her findings show that women use food as a medium to talk about their experiences, their cultures, and their beliefs. Thus, food allows the public to become aware of lives that would otherwise go unnoticed—the lives of ordinary women.
Anthropology of Food
Authors: Tierney R. Kenji , Ohnuki-Tierney Emiko 
Published: February 2013

AbstractFood is an important indicator of social differentiation, which defines the boundaries between social groups, and social hierarchy, which entails class, status, and power inequality. Because food is a basic element of material culture and social life, it has occupied a central place in the discipline of anthropology from its earliest days. Anthropologists view food and foodways as tools with which to understand individual cultures and societies, especially when they are situated in the context of global and historical flows and connections. Ethnography, the methodology used by anthropologists and by some other social scientists, relies on a holistic and empathetic approach based on lived experience among the people being studied. Anthropologists have long been interested in commensality as both a source and an expression of group identities. Another way to probe sociality is to analyze gifts and manners.
Food Regimes
Authors: Magnan André 
Published: February 2013

AbstractA major challenge for food scholars is how they can explain the evolution of a global food system where distant social actors, ecologies, and places have complex, and often contradictory, relations. In particular, scholars face the difficult task of providing an account of food system change that is at once theoretically sophisticated, historically grounded, and holistic in its perspective. A leading example of this type of approach is food regimes analysis, which is anchored in historical political economy. The food regimes approach views agriculture and food in relation to the development of capitalism on a global scale, and argues that social change is brought about by struggles among social movements, capital, and states. The concept of food regimes was introduced by Harriet Friedmann and Philip McMichael in an article in which they addressed the changing role of food and agriculture in the development of global capitalism since 1870. Food regimes analysis combines two strands of macro-sociological theory: regulationism and world-systems theory. This article examines the theoretical, empirical, and methodological contributions of food regimes analysis, and looks at some of the latest developments in food regime theorizing and research.
Antipodean American Geography: Washington Irving's “Globular” Narratives
Authors: Giles Paul 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis article examines the works of Washington Irving within the broad framework of global narratives. It analyzes how geographical variables enter into the writings of Irving and how as an author he played self-consciously with the contours of cultural mapping. The article suggests that the reflexive nature of Irving's work speaks to a meta-geographical dimension which was common to many American writers in the antebellum period, who were concerned in one way or another with how the national domain might be mapped.
Looking at State Violence: Lucy Parsons, José Martí, and Haymarket
Authors: Streeby Shelley 
Published: February 2013

AbstractThis article investigates the influence of the expansion of mass-market visual culture in shaping literary meanings in the U.S.A. in the nineteenth century. It provides a transnational history of the Haymarket bombing and executions, and suggests that literary and cultural meanings in the late nineteenth century were crucially mediated and shaped by the expansion of the pictorial marketplace and the transformation of visual culture. The article discusses how José Martí and Lucy E. Parsons intervened in late-nineteenth-century practices of looking by reenvisioning iconic sentimental and sensational Haymarket scenes, and by raising questions about violence, the visual, and state power that connect world movements across space and time.
