Book Description
En esta guía, pensada para padres y educadores, podrá encontrar claves para conocer la realidad de las adicciones en las etapas de la adolescencia y la juventud. Cada capítulo ha sido diseñado para que los conocimientos más actuales lleguen a la sociedad expresados con la mayor sencillez, pero sin faltar al rigor científico. Las adicciones son una lacra en cualquier grupo humano y un problema de salud con múltiples consecuencias. Pero la adolescencia y juventud son etapas en las que los individuos son especialmente vulnerables. Es necesario prevenir desde la educación, y si a pesar de ello la adicción se hace presente, necesitaremos los mejores recursos para ayudar a superarla. Somos conscientes de que los educadores necesitan formación para detectar las adicciones a tiempo y saber actuar en consecuencia. Una de las demandas de padres y educadores en la actualidad es saber qué hacer ante el uso problemático y/o abusivo de internet, los móviles, las redes sociales, etc. Por ello, junto con el abordaje de las adicciones con sustancia (tabaco, cannabis, alcohol, etc.) tratamos de la misma forma esas nuevas adicciones que tanto nos preocupan. Padres y educadores necesitan empoderarse ante el problema de las adicciones, la antiguas y las nuevas, y en este contexto nuestra guía pretende ser una ventana de acceso a la realidad para prevenir y para saber cómo actuar cuando la adicción ha llegado a la familia. Un enfoque adecuado de prevención parte del análisis profundo de la vida de nuestros jóvenes y adolescentes: ¿Cómo se divierten? ¿Cómo se relacionan? ¿Qué consumen? Esta obra es el primer fruto del trabajo en común de los miembros del Instituto de Estudios de las Adicciones IEA-CEU. Colaboran en ella más de treinta especialistas del campo de las adicciones con sustancia y sin sustancia (también llamadas comportamentales). El IEA-CEU nació con una vocación de servicio que se concreta en el deseo de que la mejor investigación pueda ser transferida a la sociedad.

Harm Reduction Psychotherapy
Author: Andrew Tatarsky
Publisher: Jason Aronson
ISBN: 1461628709
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
This ground-breaking volume provides readers with both an overview of harm reduction therapy and a series of ten case studies, treated by different therapists, that vividly illustrate this treatment approach with a wide variety of clients. Harm reduction is a framework for helping drug and alcohol users who cannot or will not stop completely—the majority of users—reduce the harmful consequences of use. Harm reduction accepts that abstinence may be the best outcome for many but relaxes the emphasis on abstinence as the only acceptable goal and criterion of success. Instead, smaller incremental changes in the direction of reduced harmfulness of drug use are accepted. This book will show how these simple changes in emphasis and expectation have dramatic implications for improving the effectiveness of psychotherapy in many ways. From the Foreword by Alan Marlatt, Ph.D.: “This ground-breaking volume provides readers with both an overview of harm reduction therapy and a series of ten case studies, treated by different therapists, that vividly illustrate this treatment approach with a wide variety of clients. In his introduction, Andrew Tatarsky describes harm reduction as a new paradigm for treating drug and alcohol problems. Some would say that harm reduction embraces a paradigm shift in addiction treatment, as it has moved the field beyond the traditional abstinence-only focus typically associated with the disease model and the ideology of the twelve-step approach. Others may conclude that the move toward harm reduction represents an integration of what Dr. Tatarsky describes as the “basic principles of good clinical practice” into the treatment of addictive behaviors. “Changing addiction behavior is often a complex and complicated process for both client and therapist. What seems to work best is the development of a strong therapeutic alliance, the right fit between the client and treatment provider. The role of the harm reduction therapist is closer to that of a guide, someone who can provide support an

Applied Biomechatronics Using Mathematical Models
Author: Jorge Garza Ulloa
Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128125950
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 664
Book Description
Applied Biomechatronics Using Mathematical Models provides an appropriate methodology to detect and measure diseases and injuries relating to human kinematics and kinetics. It features mathematical models that, when applied to engineering principles and techniques in the medical field, can be used in assistive devices that work with bodily signals. The use of data in the kinematics and kinetics analysis of the human body, including musculoskeletal kinetics and joints and their relationship to the central nervous system (CNS) is covered, helping users understand how the complex network of symbiotic systems in the skeletal and muscular system work together to allow movement controlled by the CNS. With the use of appropriate electronic sensors at specific areas connected to bio-instruments, we can obtain enough information to create a mathematical model for assistive devices by analyzing the kinematics and kinetics of the human body. The mathematical models developed in this book can provide more effective devices for use in aiding and improving the function of the body in relation to a variety of injuries and diseases. - Focuses on the mathematical modeling of human kinematics and kinetics - Teaches users how to obtain faster results with these mathematical models - Includes a companion website with additional content that presents MATLAB examples

How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease
Author: United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Government publications
Languages : en
Pages : 728
Book Description
This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.
