Silence
Authors: Levitt Heidi M. , Morrill Zenobia 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
There is research evidence, from both qualitative and quantitative studies, that silences in psychotherapy have established associations with good and poor outcomes that extend beyond symptom measures to processes such as insight, symbolization, and disengagement. Research also has demonstrated that therapists attend to clients’ silences, seeking to comprehend the processes therein and intentionally support productive silent processes. This chapter synthesizes this research and examines features of silence processes to provide psychotherapists with the skills to differentiate the functions of both productive and obstructive forms of pausing. It includes a review of 33 quantitative and qualitative studies on silences in individual psychotherapy (from 309 clients and 209 therapists). The qualitative and integrative meta-analytic evidence indicated that when psychotherapists skillfully identified the specific function of silences, they responded effectively to enhance therapy outcomes. The chapter concludes with research limitations, diversity considerations, training implications, and therapeutic practices based on the research evidence.
Enhancing Emotion Regulation
Authors: Iwakabe Shigeru , Nakamura Kaori , Thoma Nathan C. 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Emotion regulation (ER) refers to the process of modulating an affective experience or response. This chapter summarizes the research on therapist methods to facilitate patient ER, including affect-focused, experiential methods that aim to enhance immediate patient ER, and structured psychoeducation, skills training in ER. In eight studies with 84 clients and 33 therapists, evidence of positive intermediate outcomes for affect-focused therapist methods and interpretations was found. A meta-analysis of 26 studies showed that the average effect size of ER methods from pre- to post-treatment was large (g = 0.82). Both affect-focused and structured skill training are associated with distal improvements in ER. When working with ER in psychotherapy, therapists must consider how patients’ cultural backgrounds inform display rules, as well as what might be considered adaptive or maladaptive. The chapter concludes with training implications and therapeutic practices based on the research evidence.
Meditation, Mindfulness, and Acceptance
Authors: Goldberg Simon B. , Anders Christopher , Stuart-Maver Shannon L. , Martin Kivlighan D. 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Meditation, mindfulness, and acceptance (MMA) methods have gained popularity among psychotherapists and the public. This chapter examines how these methods may be integrated into individual psychotherapy and how their effects may be measured and assessed. A systematic review of the literature yielded only three studies examining this integration empirically. The one experimental study provided no evidence that including mindfulness meditation improved outcomes beyond other active interventions. Two qualitative studies provided preliminary evidence that patients may find MMA methods helpful. This chapter highlights future directions for work in this area, including clarifying optimal dosage and timing, identifying patient characteristics associated with beneficial or adverse effects, and investigating cultural adaptations. It concludes by highlighting training recommendations and therapeutic practices.

Technology-Enabled Simulation in Selection
Authors: Adler Seymour , Bhatia Sarena 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
More than other talent assessment methods, the design of simulations has been strongly affected by technological advances. The enhancements in the vividness, interactivity, and engagement of simulations that technology brings creates opportunities for measuring a broader sample of candidate behaviors, more rigorous application of scoring algorithms, and a richer and more natural candidate experience. However, this chapter raises potential cautions around the impact of technologically enhanced simulations on psychometric properties, standardization, use of gamification approaches, ethical concerns, commercial considerations, and the introduction of contaminants in measuring talent based on variations in candidate background that are irrelevant to effective job performance. The chapter concludes by highlighting key areas of research that might mitigate the concerns raised.
Coaching-Centric Assessments
Authors: Sinar Evan F. 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
By integrating assessment data with coaching relationships, organizations can draw on the complementary advantages of each to drive individual growth and organizational value. Assessment-infused coaching uniquely blends standardization with personalization, and operational efficiency with participant engagement. This chapter provides an overview of the principles and evidence-based recommendations for development-centric assessments applied to a development-centric coaching program and platform. Areas of emphasis and explication include foundational principles for developmental assessment, details of and differentiating features of an example content model created for this purpose, considerations for integrating human (coach-centered) and digital (platform-centered) interventions, and value drivers for this form of assessment for participants, organizations, and coaches. The chapter closes with a discussion of risks and remediating recommendations for the use of assessment in developmental settings.
Applications of High-Stakes Rich-Media Simulations
Authors: Tsacoumis Suzanne 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Job simulations have proven to be powerful tools for measuring a broad range of competencies; however, organizations are often reluctant to administer these types of assessments given the cost, time, and personnel required to develop and implement the measures. Given these constraints, organizations have taken the principles of job simulations a step further by using animation or video (i.e., rich media) to create interactive, online assessments that incorporate branching technology to facilitate realism. This chapter describes this novel approach and addresses how to handle the measurement challenges with sufficient rigor so that high-stakes personnel decisions can be made based on the resulting scores. Although additional research is needed to clearly understand these new innovative assessments, the initial psychometric properties and validity results offer strong support for these measures.
Assessment in a Large Multinational
Authors: van Katwyk Paul 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
As a growing global player in the integrated oil and gas industry, Saudi Aramco has utilized an assessment center–based methodology to conduct over 7,000 leadership readiness assessments. Over the last two decades, these assessments have supported leadership succession decisions from first-level leaders up to the most senior corporate executives. This journey has involved a number of ongoing enhancements including, during the recent pandemic, a shift to a virtual delivery platform. This case study highlights the lessons learned in this assessment journey within the broader journey of Saudi Aramco becoming the largest global energy player. Given the focus on technology-driven assessment in large multinational organizations, added focus was on the recent shift to a virtual delivery model.
Venture Capital
Authors: Lovric Darko 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Venture capital is increasingly an important source of funding in the talent assessment space, which will likely lead to a number of positive and negative effects. From a positive side, it can be expected that increased focus on customer adoption will lead to improvements in usability, digitization/automation, and intellectual property protection, leading to talent assessments that will be more accessible, cheaper, and easier to use. However, likely downsides might include reduced reliability and validity as focus on sales and simplicity becomes paramount. A number of tools to proactively manage these downsides are suggested as a way for the professionals in this space to maintain the integrity of the field.
Care Leavers’ Participation in Designing Child Welfare Services and Policy in Israel
Authors: Schwartz-Tayri Talia Meital , Lotan Hadas 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This chapter discusses how the experiences of young people who aged out of care can make a fundamental contribution to the design of child welfare policies. The authors show that care leavers’ political socialization on the youth advisory board and empowering engagement in multilevel shared decision-making in Israel generated the political resources required for their effective activism. The chapter demonstrates how care leavers’ engagement in service and policy design may increase service quality, social inclusion, and children’s active citizenship. The chapter, which seeks to expand scholarly knowledge about the engagement of marginalized youth in policy design, analyzes board members’ political resources, self-efficacy, and opportunities to engage in policy advocacy. The chapter is based on interviews with 12 board members and four policymakers. The chapter shows that membership in the youth advisory board generated a strong sense of belonging among members. It demonstrates that young people’s policy advocacy efforts helped them gain several critical resources for political engagement. Organizational and national policymakers considered the changes in the design of services for children in care and youth in transition a result of the board’s advocacy efforts.
Prospect Theory and Partisan Cues
Authors: Dyck Joshua J. , Pearson-Merkowitz Shanna 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Chapter 5 begins with a relatively straightforward question: Can partisan cues alter respondents’ willingness to accept risk?. To answer this question, the chapter explores the role partisanship plays in mitigating the basic premise of prospect theory. The experiments presented in this chapter suggest that partisanship makes people, particularly Republicans, riskier and more willing to put their health and economic fortunes on the line for partisan gains. The experiments include risk aversion and acceptance in the face of partisan cues around Covid-19 vaccines, an experiment conducted during the pandemic but before the release of a vaccine, and risk aversion and acceptance on financial matters, which mirrors the original economic premise of prospect theory. Both experiments suggest that partisanship makes people more willing to take risks.
The Theory of Flexible Meter
Authors: Murphy Nancy 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This chapter outlines the theory of flexible meter that encompasses all possible metric structures, from regularity (a multi-leveled hierarchy of beats), to expressive timing (a looser, but still regular hierarchy), to unpredictable rhythmic patterns (an ambiguous metric context). The theory of flexible meter accounts for all the types of meter the singer-songwriter repertoire presents, including Regular, Reinterpreted, Lost, and Ambiguous Meter. The singer-songwriter may engage one of these metric types at a time, may shift from regularity to ambiguity, or may shift from ambiguity to regularity, demonstrating an emerging meter. The type of meter or the vacillation between types has important impacts on self-expression in the singer-songwriter repertoire. Locally, this flexible meter highlights important lyrical content—specific imagery and sentiments of the self-expressive singer-songwriter style—but it also more broadly signals the rhapsodic, spontaneous, and “imperfect” aesthetic associated with these singer-songwriters.
Introduction
Authors: Ostler Rosemarie 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This brief section introduces readers to the main themes of the book. It proposes that American English should be called American Englishes because so many varieties exist side by side. At the same time, all Americans sound distinctively different from speakers of English in other places. It outlines how the book will explain the trajectory of American English from its origins in British English to its current state, highlighting examples of early Americanisms, relevant historical events, and Americans’ attitudes toward their own speech. It also gives necessary background by explaining the basics of language change and variation.
American Grammar and Usage
Authors: Ostler Rosemarie 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Chapter 4 follows the evolution of grammatical structures from colonial English to modern times, and describes some of the major differences between British and American English. It talks about typically American usages that have roots in the English of earlier centuries, for example, the various forms of plural you (y’all, you’uns). In addition, it examines common vernacular and evolving features such as changing verb forms and multiple modals like might could. A final section considers the role of grammar books in shaping how Americans use and think about the language.
Afterword
Authors: Ostler Rosemarie 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This brief afterword proposes some directions that American English might take in the future. It discusses possible sources of new words, such as closed-group language and identity terms; expanded use of singular they; possibilities for gender-neutral pronouns, including ze and hir; and trends in dialect change and spread, such as the merger of the vowels in cot and caught. It also addresses the issue of world Englishes becoming different enough to count as separate languages, but concludes that it’s more likely that American English and other versions will continue to share common traits as long as they continue their cultural exchange.
Openness and Persuasion
Authors: Briñol Pablo , Petty Richard E. 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Openness can be treated as an outcome, a motive, and a process. The motive to be open can be relatively objective or biased, and it can affect processes of both primary and secondary cognition. Understanding these processes is critical for predicting when variables like curiosity relate to openness in the short and long term. After introducing these distinctions and the guiding conceptual framework, the authors examine how the motive to be open can come from the attitude, the situation, and the person, such as when some people are open to all information and thoughts whereas others are open only to particular kinds of information. The authors also describe how openness can be appraised in both positive and negative ways and how changes in these meanings are consequential for actual openness. Beyond being open, recent research also reveals the importance of signaling openness to others, as well as perceiving openness in others.
Forms of Intellectual Humility and Their Associations with Features of Knowledge, Beliefs, and Opinions
Authors: Hoyle Rick H. , Davisson Erin K. 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
“Forms of Intellectual Humility and their Associations with Features of Knowledge, Beliefs, and Opinions” describes two forms of intellectual humility, each reflecting an acknowledgment that one could be misguided or incorrect coupled with a willingness to consider alternative views and change one’s view if warranted. After reviewing the short history of empirical research on intellectual humility, the chapter summarizes conceptualizations of general intellectual humility, emphasizing its overlap with open-mindedness and dogmatism. It then discusses specific intellectual humility, the form of the construct evident in people’s views about particular domains, topics, and issues. After presenting a conceptual model of the relation between general and specific intellectual humility, the chapter presents new findings from research inspired by the model. The chapter concludes with a discussion of prospects for developing interventions to increase intellectual humility.
Noncitizens and the Demands of Social Equality
Authors: Lim Désirée 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This chapter focuses on social subordination as a failure of equal respect. On what it calls the “conventional view,” the ideal of social equality is believed to only apply between citizens, within the context of a bounded society. It argues, however, that noncitizens also have a pro tanto right to social equality. Right-holders include noncitizens who are territorially present within the confines of the state and, more controversially, noncitizens who remain outside of the state’s territory. The entitlement to social equality is not derived from one’s citizenship status, but the distinctive harms that social subordination pose to individuals’ moral personhood: inferiorizing treatment may seriously inhibit their ability to develop and pursue our conception of the good. A universal entitlement to social equality is compatible with states owing stronger obligations to particular groups, such as citizens and denizens, than to noncitizens located in other territories.
Migratorial Disobedience and Immigration Justice
Authors: Lim Désirée 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Earlier chapters established that skill-selective immigration policies are unjust. Consequently, it may be asked if migrants are permitted to disobey unjust immigration laws. On Javier Hidalgo’s permissive view of migratorial disobedience, individual migrants may permissibly disobey unjust immigration laws in order to protect themselves against threats to their basic rights. On Caleb Yong’s restrictive view, however, disobedience is permissible only if the laws in question are egregiously unjust. Immigration laws meet the threshold for egregious injustice when they directly violate the human rights of noncitizens or allow states to shirk their required share of the international responsibility for noncitizens’ human rights. This chapter defends a new version of the permissive view. It argues that disobedience is not just permissible, but also morally desirable by dint of the politically transformative role of principled disobedience. Importantly, migratorial disobedience need not be civil.
Following Stories across Scripts, Languages, and Repertoires
Authors: Orsini Francesca 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Tales (kathas) are ubiquitous in the literary culture of premodern North India, and they come in all shapes, languages, scripts, and inflections. This chapter traces the fortune of the genre across different languages, scripts, and milieus within this multilingual literary culture. It starts with the romances (pemkthas) in the regional version of Hindi called Avadhi written in the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries and their diffusion. It dwells on the fortune of the genre in the Mughal period, when new tastes and trends developed, by discussing the romances by Usman and Puhakar, Tulsidas’s devotional Ramkatha, as well as Persian texts (the anonymous Rājkunwar and versions of Malik Muhammad Jayasi’s Padmāvat). And it reflects on how the genre fared within modern Hindi literary historiography. Methodologically, the chapter argues that we can use the longue-durée history of the katha genre, its articulation and rearticulation of cultural and social imaginaries, its particular linguistic textures and aesthetic emphasis, and the material form of texts, evidence of patronage, and shifts in circulation and popularity to illuminate the history of literary tastes in the region.
Colonial Impact and Indian Response
Authors: Orsini Francesca 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
How does our understanding of the cultural impact of colonialism change if we take a located and multilingual perspective? That colonialism had a profound impact on North Indian society and literature at structural and epistemic levels—from education to notions of literature—is beyond doubt. This chapter shows how ideas of indigeneity vs. foreignness produced competing discourses about Hindi and Urdu as distinct languages with separate, quasi-monolingual, literary histories, which elided not only traditions in the “other” language but also contemporary orature and Muslim folklore. But redirecting our attention to continuities as well as disruptions and radical innovations, this chapter argues, shows the resilience of aesthetics and tastes that modern literary reformers condemned as irrelevant, decadent, and dangerous. The chapter also shows how new genres other than the novel, such as musical theater, reproduced and exploited multilingual repertoires. These genres were arguably more significant to the consolidation and spread of nationalist and other ideologies.
The Risk Factors for Suicide Ideation
Authors: Wong Amy 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This chapter identifies the risk factors for suicide ideation, which include experiencing a history of mental health challenges, an accumulation of difficult days, intergenerational trauma, thwarted belongingness, and perceived burdensomeness. It provides interview data regarding the risk factors that exacerbate existing mental health challenges and difficulties. It also explains how the accumulation of psychological pain contributes to suicide ideation. It further examines the various forms of racism that Asian American college students experience while on campus, such as racial microaggressions, the perpetual foreigner myth, and the model minority myth. The Asian American college students who were interviewed have lived to tell their stories and in the process looked to protective factors and developed an emerging resiliency to suicide deaths.
Rethinking Islam and Human Rights
Authors: Keles Ozcan 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Rethinking Islam and Human Rights is the first book to delineate an original way of understanding the organic production of Islamic knowledge on human rights that overcomes the fragmented nature of the (‘rapprochement’) literature that focuses on change in the context of either Islamic scripture (formalised Islamic knowledge) or Islamic sensibility (experiential Islamic knowing). Thus, this book combines an appreciation for both facets of religious knowledge, with an emphasis on the symbiotic relationship between the two (i.e., the formalised and the experiential). To that end, this book weaves together theoretical insights from a range of disciplines, while reworking process tracing methodology, to focus on a single case study analysis of Hizmet’s practices (also known as the Gülen movement) to flesh out the dynamics of this interactive change and the centrality of practice-based knowledge production therein. In doing so, this book analytically demonstrates how and why social movement practice organically, unassumingly, unintentionally, and, often-times, counter-intentionally produces socially transformative formalised Islamic knowledge on human rights. As a result, this book shows how it is possible to account for the production, internalisation, legitimisation, and externalisation of Islamic knowledge through a single relational process on some of the most intransigent issues in the context of Islam and human rights, that is, apostasy and women’s rights. Consequently, this book offers us an original, distinctive, and important pathway of reassessing age-old challenges at the cross-sectional impasse of change, stability, and religious knowledge production, which extends beyond those associated with Islam and human rights.
