Zwischen Idealisierung und Entwertung: Beziehungsgestaltung in der klinischen Sozialarbeit mit Menschen, die an einer Borderline-Persönlichkeitsstörung erkrankt sind
Creators: name: Sturzenegger, Ladina
Publisher: name: Hochschule Luzern – Soziale Arbeit
Year: 2025

description: Die Borderline-Persönlichkeitsstörung ist eine häufige und komplexe psychische Erkrankung,
die durch starke emotionale Instabilität, Impulsivität und Schwierigkeiten in zwischenmenschlichen
Beziehungen gekennzeichnet ist. Krankheitsspezifische Verhaltensweisen
wie aggressive Ausbrüche, selbstverletzendes Verhalten und suizidale Handlungen
erschweren den Umgang mit den Betroffenen und können bei den Interaktionspartnerinnen
und -partnern emotionale Reaktionen auslösen. Dies führt häufig zu belastenden
Beziehungsmustern, da viele Betroffene aufgrund negativer Erfahrungen mit wichtigen
Bezugspersonen in der Vergangenheit Schwierigkeiten haben, stabile und vertrauensvolle
Beziehungen aufzubauen. Die Erkrankung verursacht erheblichen Leidensdruck,
und viele Betroffene sind im Laufe ihres Lebens auf professionelle Unterstützung
angewiesen.
Vor diesem Hintergrund widmet sich die Literaturarbeit der Frage, was Fachkräfte der
klinischen Sozialarbeit im Umgang mit Menschen mit einer Borderline-Persönlichkeitsstörung
beachten müssen, damit die Beziehungsgestaltung gelingt.
Diese Arbeit richtet sich an Fachpersonen der Sozialen Arbeit sowie an Interessierte aus
verwandten Disziplinen. Sie soll dazu beitragen, das Verständnis der Borderline-Erkrankung
zu stärken und konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen für die Praxis zu liefern.

description: Long-range quasi-static gauge-boson interactions lead to anomalous (non-Fermi-liquid) behavior of the specific heat in the low-temperature limit of an electron or quark gas with a leading $T\ln T^{-1}$ term. We obtain perturbative results beyond the leading log approximation and find that dynamical screening gives rise to a low-temperature series involving also anomalous fractional powers $T^{(3+2n)/3}$. We determine their coefficients in perturbation theory up to and including order $T^{7/3}$ and compare with exact numerical results obtained in the large-$N_f$ limit of QED and QCD.

description: It has been suggested that codimension-two braneworlds might naturally explain the vanishing of the 4D effective cosmological constant, due to the automatic relation between the deficit angle and the brane tension. To investigate whether this cancellation happens dynamically, and within the context of a realistic cosmology, we study a codimension-two braneworld with spherical extra dimensions compactified by magnetic flux. Assuming Einstein gravity, we show that when the brane contains matter with an arbitrary equation of state, the 4D metric components are not regular at the brane, unless the brane has nonzero thickness. We construct explicit 6D solutions with thick branes, treating the brane matter as a perturbation, and find that the universe expands consistently with standard Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmology. The relation between the brane tension and the bulk deficit angle becomes $Δ=2πG_6(ρ-3 p)$ for a general equation of state. However, this relation does not imply a self-tuning of the effective 4D cosmological constant to zero; perturbations of the brane tension in a static solution lead to deSitter or anti-deSitter braneworlds. Our results thus confirm other recent work showing that codimension-two braneworlds in nonsupersymmetric Einstein gravity do not lead to a dynamical relaxation of the cosmological constant, but they leave open the possibility that supersymmetric versions can be compatible with self-tuning.

description: We show the modular properties of the multiple 'elliptic' gamma functions, which are an extension of those of the theta function and the elliptic gamma function. The modular property of the theta function is known as Jacobi's transformation, and that of the elliptic gamma function was provided by Felder and Varchenko. In this paper we deal with the multiple sine functions, since the modular properties of the multiple elliptic gamma functions result from the equivalence between two ways to represent the multiple sine functions as infinite product. We also derive integral representations of the multiple sine functions and the multiple elliptic gamma functions. We introduce correspondences between the multiple elliptic gamma functions and the multiple sine functions.

description: The remarkable phenomenon of catalyst tells us that adding a catalyst could help state transformation. In this paper, we consider the problem of catalyst-assisted probabilistic coherence distillation for mixed states under strictly incoherent operations. To this end, we first present the necessary and sufficient conditions for distilling a target pure coherent state from an initial mixed state via stochastic strictly incoherent operations and the maximal probability of obtaining the target pure state from the initial state. With the help of these results, we present the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a catalyst that increases the maximal transformation probability.

description: We have investigated the current-induced spin transfer torque of a ferromagnet-insulator-ferromagnet tunnel junction by taking the spin-flip scatterings into account. It is found that the spin-flip scattering can induce an additional spin torque, enhancing the maximum of the spin torque and giving rise to an angular shift compared to the case when the spin-flip scatterings are neglected. The effects of the molecular fields of the left and right ferromagnets on the spin torque are also studied. It is found that $τ^{Rx}/I_{e}$ ($τ^{Rx}$ is the spin-transfer torque acting on the right ferromagnet and $I_{e}$ is the tunneling elcetrical current) does vary with the molecular fields. At two certain angles, $τ^{Rx}/I_{e}$ is independent of the molecular field of the right ferromagnet, resulting in two crossing points in the curve of $τ^{Rx}/I_{e}$ versus the relevant orientation for different molecular fields.

description: Making observable predictions for cosmic inflation requires determining when the wavenumbers of astrophysical interest today exited the Hubble radius during the inflationary epoch. These instants are commonly evaluated using the slow-roll approximation and measured in e-folds $ΔN=N-N_\mathrm{end}$, in reference to the e-fold $N_\mathrm{end}$ at which inflation ended. Slow roll being necessarily violated towards the end of inflation, both the approximated trajectory and $N_\mathrm{end}$ are determined at, typically, one or two e-folds precision. Up to now, such an uncertainty has been innocuous, but this will no longer be the case with the forthcoming cosmological measurements. In this work, we introduce a new and simple analytical method, on top of the usual slow-roll approximation, that reduces uncertainties on $ΔN$ to less than a tenth of an e-fold.

description: Quantum machine learning has emerged as an exciting and promising paradigm inside quantum technologies. It may permit, on the one hand, to carry out more efficient machine learning calculations by means of quantum devices, while, on the other hand, to employ machine learning techniques to better control quantum systems. Inside quantum machine learning, quantum reinforcement learning aims at developing "intelligent" quantum agents that may interact with the outer world and adapt to it, with the strategy of achieving some final goal. Another paradigm inside quantum machine learning is that of quantum autoencoders, which may allow one for employing fewer resources in a quantum device via a training process. Moreover, the field of quantum biomimetics aims at establishing analogies between biological and quantum systems, to look for previously inadvertent connections that may enable useful applications. Two recent examples are the concepts of quantum artificial life, as well as of quantum memristors. In this Perspective, we give an overview of these topics, describing the related research carried out by the scientific community.

description: Video and audio communications have become part of all areas of work. Two real-time communication protocols commonly used for IP-based video and audio communications are Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and real-time web communications (WebRTC). Both protocols have been widely used in softphone and video conferencing applications. The main objective of this research is to make an analysis of the performance of a client server application for video and audio communications developed by SIP and WebRTC. The SIP system consists of a softphone on the client side using Bria and a FreePBX server, forWebRTC applications, using JavaScript and a server at Node.js. The results showed that the WebRTC audio and video communication provided better quality in terms of PSNR. This is due to the different codecs used between WebRTC and SIP. WebRTC uses VP8 as video codec, SIP uses H.246 as video codec, WebRTC uses G.711 as audio codec, and implemented SIP uses G.729 as audio codec.

description: Simulation training may be helpful for the development of ‘non-technical skills’ (NTS) in health care education. NTS are the cognitive and social skills that complement health care worker’s technical skills. Research has shown a need for NTS training in health education, but many areas of medical practice have yet to embrace this training. The rational for including NTS in health care education is based on improving patient safety, meeting medical education core competencies, and gaining the necessary team skills for entry level practice in a medical team environment. In a simulation intervention the learner is required to respond as they would under real-life circumstances.The application of simulation in health care education has traditionally emphasized and continues to focus on the development of technical skill. In this rapidly changing field there is a need for a current and comprehensive review of NTS. MPT Systematic Reviews and Research Projects.

description: Student feedback for lecturer plays an important role, it used to improve the quality of lecturer in teaching. In general, student feedback consists of two types, quantitative feedback and qualitative feedback. For quantitative feedback, it can easily analyze using statistical calculations, because it contains closed questions with multiple choices. But for qualitative feedback, it is difficult to analyze, because it contains open questions with essay answers. Lecturers can analyze manually, but it takes extensive times and the results can be very subjective. To overcome this problem, sentiment analysis is applied to analyze textual data automatically in order to improve teaching evaluations. This research uses student feedback as dataset, and lexicon approach with InSet Lexicon. In this research, the evaluation result shows that system accuracy is 90.9%.

description: Purpose. The «resource curse» suggests that natural resources have been a curse instead of a blessing for a number of countries. Resource abundance leads to political and social tensions, lower economic growth, rent-seeking, and poor decision-making according to this theory. Mainly, natural abundance constitutes a difficulty for policy decision-makers. A high share of natural resources in the export of a country makes a country vulnerable to changes in resource prices on the world market. This study analyzes the management of the resource revenues from theoretical and practical view in a form of case studies of selected countries rendering both failure and success stories. The aim of the study is to identify challenges connected with dependency on natural resources (measured by the share in the country’s export) and frame up fiscal policy recommendations for countries with natural resource abundance. Methodology / approach. Since the resource curse is the phenomena which must be explored from a wider perspective, the chosen methodology is a qualitative country analysis and cross-country comparison. Results. Data analysis in the period 2008–2018 shows that even countries that have transformed the resource curse into a blessing were hit by a fall in commodity prices in 2015 too. The paper confirms the pro-cyclical nature of fiscal policies in Nigeria and Mexico and the counter-cyclical nature of these policies in Chile and Botswana. Examples of good practice (Chile, Botswana) are shown. Originality / scientific novelty. In the theoretical part of the paper, the recommendations for fiscal sustainability to present are summarized. In the practical part, another sample of countries with up-to-date data is analyzed in hand with a description of the main steps taken by local governments. Practical value / implications. Both theory and practical examples are supposed to help to policy-makers in countries, which must deal with volatility in commodity prices. The main implication is to establish a fiscal rule which is resistant to any amendment and its compliance is controlled by the external institution.

description: Testing for dependence between pairs of random variables is a fundamental problem in statistics. In some applications, data are subject to selection bias that can create spurious dependence. An important example is truncation models, in which observed pairs are restricted to a specific subset of the X-Y plane. Standard tests for independence are not suitable in such cases, and alternative tests that take the selection bias into account are required. Here, we generalize the notion of quasi-independence with respect to the sampling mechanism, and study the problem of detecting any deviations from it. We develop two tests statistics motivated by the classic Hoeffding’s statistic, and use two approaches to compute their distribution under the null: (i) a bootstrap-based approach, and (ii) a permutation-test with non-uniform probability of permutations. We also handle an important application to the case of censoring with truncation, by estimating the biased sampling mechanism from the data. We prove the validity of the tests, and show, using simulations, that they improve power compared to competing methods for important special cases. The tests are applied to four data sets, two that are subject to truncation, with and without censoring, and two to bias mechanisms related to length bias.

description: In the era of data and information, data has become one of the most useful and desirable things. Data can be useful information if the data is processed properly. One example of the results of data processing in business is by making customer segmentation. Customer segmentation is useful for identifying and filtering customers according to certain categories. Analysis of the resulting segmentation can produce information about more effective target market, more efficient budget, more accurate marketing or promotion strategies, and much more. Since segmentation aims to separate customers into several categories or clusters, a clustering algorithm can be used. In this research, customer segmentation is carried out based on the value of income and value of expenditure. The categorization method that will be used for this research is to use the K-Means ++ algorithm which is useful for determining clusters of the given data. In this study, the implementation of K-Means ++ is carried out using Neo4J. Then in this research, a comparison of K-Means ++ and K-Means is carried out. The result obtained in this study is that K-Means ++ has a better cluster than K-Means in term of silhouette score parameter.

description: We construct an effective field theory for complex Stueckelberg dark photon dark matter. Such an effective construction can be realized by writing down a complete set of operators up to dimension six built with the complex dark photon and Standard Model fields. Classifying the effective operators, we find that in order to properly take into account the non-renormalizable nature of an interacting massive vector, the size of the Wilson coefficients should be naturally smaller than naively expected. This can be consistently taken into account by a proper power counting, that we suggest. First we apply this to collider bounds on light dark matter, then to direct detection searches by extending the list of non-relativistic operators to include the case of complex vectors. In the former we correctly find scaling limits for small masses, while in the latter we mostly focus on electric dipole interactions, that are the smoking gun of this type of dark matter. Simple UV completions that effectively realize the above scenarios are also outlined.

description: We show evidence that tunnel junctions (TJs) in GaN grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy are dominated by trap-assisted (Poole-Frenkel) tunneling. This stems from observations of the careful optimized doping for the TJs. Especially the p$^{++}$ and the n$^{++}$ layers are far from ideal. The n$^{++}$ layer induces 3D growth, which can be seen by a rising oxygen signal in Secondary Ions Mass Spectroscopy (SIMS). Furthermore, Mg segregation observed by SIMS indicates a depletion region of more than 10 nm. Still, we could realize TJ based LEDs with a low penalty voltage of 1.1 V and a specific differential resistance of about 10$^{-2}$ $Ω$.cm$^2$ at 20 mA without using an InGaN interlayer.

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of physical therapy (PT) based interventions on the functional abilities of children with CP when implemented early (0-96 months). From the search, thirteen papers were retrieved and analyzed after the inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied. The primary intervention used in all of the papers was a variation of Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) despite the broad search strategy used. Studies were assessed for their effects on quality and quantity of hand function and activities of daily living (ADLs)/function. Eight studies found significant results regarding the quality of hand use, six studies reported significant results of quantity of hand use, and two studies reported significance in regards to ADLs/function. In conclusion, children with CP can benefit from CIMT as part of their rehabilitation. MPT Systematic Reviews and Research Projects.

description: The recently introduced complex active optical network (LANER) generalizes the concept of laser system to a collection of links, building a bridge with random-laser physics and quantum-graphs theory. So far, LANERs have been studied with a linear approach. Here, we develop a nonlinear formalism in the perspective of describing realistic experimental devices. The propagation along active links is treated via suitable rate equations, which require the inclusion of an auxiliary variable: the population inversion. Altogether, the resulting mathematical model can be viewed as an abstract network, its nodes corresponding to the (directed) fields in the physical links. The dynamical equations differ from standard network models in that, they are a mixture of differential delay (for the active links) and algebraic equations (for the passive links). The stationary states of a generic setup with a single active medium are thoroughly discussed, showing that the role of the passive components can be combined into a single transfer function that takes into account the corresponding resonances.

description: This research implemented the cubic function f(x) = 3(x^3 − x^2 − x) + 2 using a FixedPoint Iteration to produce several iteration functions that can be used as random number generator. The test results obtain six iteration functions, and based on graphic visualization with Scatter plot and randomness test with mono bit test, bit block, and run test, the results only obtain two iteration functions namely x2 − 1 + 2/(3x) and f(x) = 1 + 1/x − 2/(3x^2)which can produce CSPRNG Chaos-based random number. Encryption testing shows that both functions can generate keys that make plaintext and ciphertext statistically unrelated, so the f(x) = 1 + 1/x − 2/(3x^2) function can be used as a CSPNRG chaos-based random number generator function.

Ethics of Technology needs more Political Philosophy

description: The ongoing debate on the ethics of self-driving cars typically focuses on two approaches to answering ethical questions: moral philosophy and social science. I argue that these two approaches are both lacking. We should neither deduce answers from individual moral theories nor should we expect social science to give us complete answers. To supplement these approaches, we should turn to political philosophy. The issues we face are collective decisions that we make together rather than individual decisions we make in light of what we each have reason to value. Political philosophy adds three basic concerns to our conceptual toolkit: reasonable pluralism, human agency, and legitimacy. These three concerns have so far been largely overlooked in the debate on the ethics of self-driving cars.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Purpose. The purpose of this study is to analyze the potential of renewable energy of agricultural raw materials for the production of biofuels in Ukraine. Methodology / approach. The methodological base of the research is a systematic approach to the study of socio-economic systems. General scientific and special methods are used for solving certain tasks in the research process, namely: abstract-logical (for theoretical synthesis of conclusions and analysis of the research results); economic-statistical and monographic (for the analysis of the current state of Ukraine’s agricultural potential in the production of biofuels). Results. Energy dependence and the possibility of renewable energy sources use are defined as the driving force behind the development of bioenergy in Ukraine. It has been proved that annual rate of growth of price of gas and fossil energy sources lead to the development and use of bioenergy fuels. It is substantiated that Ukraine has significant opportunities in biomass cultivation and in use of bioenergy fuels, which will allow to be an energy independent country in the global space and to provide consumers and producers with the necessary amount of liquid, gaseous and solid fuels. Originality / scientific novelty. It was found that the annual increase in the volume of grain production in Ukraine leads to agricultural products surplus formation, which eventually goes for export to meet the needs of other countries in food production, livestock feed and poultry industry, as well as for oxygen-containing production additive «bioethanol» to gasoline. It was established that agricultural sector of Ukraine provides not only food security of the country, but also affects the country energy autonomy and creates a competitive environment on petroleum products market of through the bioenergy fuels introduction. Practical value / implications. The trends of changes in volumes of grain crops export from Ukraine have been estimated. The share of biomass in the structure of renewable energy sources in some EU member states consumption has been determined and analyzed. Conducted analysis will help Ukrainian producers and other stakeholders to plan biofuel business activities.
