Book Description
This collective project by Erik Bordeleau, Toni Pape, Ronald Rose-Antoinette and Adam Szymanski is not simply 'about' Apichatpong Weerasethakul, though it does engage his work in detail. It is a book that deeply questions what else might be at stake in setting up the conditions for collaboration across two genres - cinema and writing.

Computers and Games for Mental Health and Well-Being
Author: Yasser Khazaal
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2889454967
Category : Video games in education
Languages : en
Pages : 311
Book Description
Recent years have seen important developments in the computer and game industry, including the emergence of the concept of serious games. It is hypothesized that tools such as games, virtual reality, or applications for smartphones may foster learning, enhance motivation, promote behavioral change, support psychotherapy, favor empowerment, and improve some cognitive functions. Computers and games may create supports for training or help people with cognitive, emotional, or behavioral change. Games take various formats, from board games to informatics to games with interactive rules of play. Similarly, computer tools may vary widely in format, from self-help or assisted computerized training to virtual reality or applications for smartphones. Some tools that may be helpful for mental health were specifically designed for that goal, whereas others were not. Gamification of computer-related products and games with a numeric format tend to reduce the gap between games and computers tools and increase the conceptual synergy in such fields. Games and computer design share an opportunity for creativity and innovation to help create, specifically design, and assess preventive or therapeutic tools. Computers and games share a design conception that allows innovative approaches to overcome barriers of the real world by creating their own rules. Yet, despite the potential interest in such tools to improve treatment of mental disorders and to help prevent them, the field remains understudied and information is under-disseminated in clinical practice. Some studies have shown, however, that there is potential interest and acceptability of tools that support various vehicles, rationales, objectives, and formats. These tools include traditional games (e.g., chess games), popular electronic games, board games, computer-based interventions specifically designed for psychotherapy or cognitive training, virtual reality, apps for smartphones, and so forth. Computers and games may offer a true opportunity to develop, assess, and disseminate new prevention and treatment tools for mental health and well-being. Currently, there is a strong need for state-of-the-art information to answer questions such as the following: Why develop such tools for mental health and well-being? What are the potential additions to traditional treatments? What are the best strategies or formats to improve the possible impact of these tools? Are such tools useful as a first treatment step? What is the potential of a hybrid model of care that combines traditional approaches with games and/or computers as tools? What games and applications have already been designed and studied? What is the evidence from previous studies? How can such tools be successfully designed for mental health and well-being? What is rewarding or attractive for patients in using such treatments? What are the worldwide developments in the field? Are some protocols under development? What are the barriers and challenges related to such developments? How can these tools be assessed, and how can the way that they work, and for whom, be measured? Are the potential benefits of such products specific, or can these additions be attributed to nonspecific factors? What are the users’ views on such tools? What are the possible links between such tools and social networks? Is there a gap between evidence-based results and market development? Are there any quality challenges? What future developments and studies are needed in the field?

Critical Discourse Studies in Context and Cognition
Author: Christopher Hart
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027206341
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
Critical Discourse Studies (CDS) is an exciting research enterprise in which scholars are concerned with the discursive reproduction of power and inequality. However, researchers in CDS are increasingly recognising the need to investigate the cognitive dimensions of discourse and context if they want to fully account for any connection between language, legitimisation and social action. This book presents a collection of papers in CDS concerned with various ideological discourses. Analyses are firmly rooted in linguistics and cognition constitutes a major focus of attention. The chapters, which are written by prominent researchers in CDS, come from a broad range of theoretical perspectives spanning pragmatics, cognitive psychology and cognitive linguistics. The book is essential reading for anyone working at the cutting edge of CDS and especially for those wishing to explore the central place that cognition must surely hold in the relationship between discourse and society.

Cogitations
Author: Wilfred R. Bion
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429912110
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Cogitations, the last of the posthumous publications, is a collection of occasional writings representing Bion's attempts to clarify and evaluate both his own ideas and those of others by casting them in written form and frequently addressing them to an imaginary audience. Covering a period between February 1958 and April 1979, Cogitations delves into a wide range of material - psychoanalysis and science, mathematics and logic, literature and semantics. Some form a background to Bion's theoretical development, showing the doubts and arguments leading to the ideas expressed in his books, others highlighting and detailing some of the more abstract points in them, and some exploring topics destined for books that were to remain unwritten.

Comprendre le cerveau de son enfant
Author: Pascale Toscani
Publisher: Hatier Parents
ISBN: 2401058397
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : fr
Pages : 226
Book Description
Comprendre le cerveau de son enfant. Ce titre, d’apparence anodine, rapproche deux mots qui semblent ne pas appartenir au même monde. D’un côté, l’unicité d’un enfant ; de l’autre, le cerveau qui contient des milliards de neurones. Tous les enfants apprendront, différemment, à des vitesses variées. Mais la vitesse de traitement de l’information et la variété de son traitement ne déterminent aucunement l’intelligence. Il n’y a pas de norme d’apprentissage, ni de norme d’intelligence. Les enfants ont un avenir imprévisible mais pour évoluer, ils doivent être assurés que leur entourage croit en leur évolution de manière inconditionnelle. Ce livre a pour ambition d’aider les parents à modifier leurs représentations concernant le développement de l’enfant. À l’aide d’explications claires et didactiques, Pascale Toscani adopte au fil de cet ouvrage une double approche complémentaire ; celles de la psychologie et des neurosciences. Il a pour vocation : d’éclairer le lecteur sur le fonctionnement du cerveau de l’enfant ; de faire un sort aux fausses croyances concernant le fonctionnement du cerveau, les neuromythes ; d’expliquer les grands mécanismes des fonctions cognitives, fonctions qui permettent aux enfants d’entrer en contact avec le monde (la mémoire, l’attention, le langage, la motivation, les émotions...) ; de donner des conseils d'hygiène de vie pour favoriser les apprentissages et le bien-être des petits et des grands : le sommeil, le sport, l’alimentation, tous les paramètres qui favorisent leur développement. L’enfant a un avenir imprévisible, rien ne peut jamais se prédire. Aidons-le à s’épanouir à son rythme !
