Communicating with LOVE: Listening - The 20 Minute Guide - 0 views

  •  
    The Invitation to Change model for supporting people struggling with substance abuse issues provides a similar framework that we see in Greene's ALSUP/Plan B model. You may find this model for empathic listening more accessible than the others shared. Since addiction almost always begins in adolecence, researchers have begun classifying it as a delayed learning disability. If schools could catch and address the lagging skills that get in the way of students' success without brain altering substances, we might face fewer issues with addiction later down the line. Food for thought.

  • Developmental delays are common and can involve either a single domain or multiple domains of the child’s functioning.Early identification of developmental delays and appropriate management can positively alter the child’s developmental trajectory.Primary care physicians play a pivotal role in early identification of developmental delays through developmental screening and surveillance.For children presenting with mild developmental delays and in the absence of any red flags, appropriate stimulation activities can be suggested, with close monitoring of the child.There should be a low threshold for specialist referral for children at high risk for developmental problems, such as those who are in care, have an underlying chronic medical condition, or have a primary caregiver with a mental health problem.

Frontiers | Could Acting Training Improve Social Cognition and Emotional Control? - 0 views

  • Goldstein et al. (2013) found that a year of acting practice decreased the use of emotional suppression in children aged 7–10, while adolescents majoring in acting at high school (compared to other art majors e.g., music) used less suppression. Additionally, 4–5-years olds randomly assigned to an 8-week drama condition (compared to block building or reading) showed increased emotional control (i.e., inhibition of affective responses to observed or discussed distress; Goldstein and Lerner, 2018).
  • The ability to represent others' mental states, referred to as ToM or cognitive empathy, plays a critical role in understanding and navigating social situations
