This study examined the relationships between collective self-esteem (CSE), job satisfaction (professional outcome), and subjective well-being (personal outcome) in Israeli creative arts therapies students as compared to practitioners (N=233). Based on self-enhancement theory and conservation of resources theory, the roles of work engagement and meaningful work as two parallel mediators in thes...

This theoretical paper demonstrates how music therapy—and more specifically, community music therapy (CoMT)—can contribute to social justice. CoMT is a creative approach that the liberates expression, potentially empowering people of all ages, races, and statuses to build a better society. It also reveals how the leadership literature presents the concept of service in addressing social justice...

The First Step Series (FSS) is a protocol of five art therapy directives designed for the initial stages of substance abuse treatment. These directives target denial to facilitate client identification of ambivalence and eventual acceptance of lifestyle changes necessary for recovery. Motivational Interviewing (MI) [Miller, W. R., & Rollnick, S. (2002). Motivational Interviewing: Preparing peop...

This paper outlines a study which sought to understand how art therapists structure their approach to treating people who experience borderline personality disorder features. It outlines the understanding of the condition, controversies around diagnosis and its use by evidence based psychological therapies as a guide for structuring therapy. The paper considers how art therapists might utilise ...

We present two studies aimed at resolving experimentally whether religion increases prosocial behavior in the anonymous dictator game. Participants allocated more money to anonymous strangers when God concepts were implicitly activated compared to neutral or no concepts. This effect was at least as large as when concepts associated with secular moral institutions were primed. Self-reported reli...

Integrin-mediated adhesion to the extracellular matrix plays a fundamental role in tumor metastasis. Salvicine, a novel diterpenoid quinone compound identified as a nonintercalative topoisomerase II poison, possesses a broad range of antitumor and antimetastatic activity. Here, the mechanism underlying the antimetastatic capacity of salvicine was investigated by exploring the effect of salvicin...

Transport of choline from the synaptic cleft into cholinergic neurons is mediated by the choline high-affinity transporter (CHT). This process represents the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of acetylcholine (ACh), a neurotransmitter critically involved with processes requiring sustained attention. Compromised CHT capacity limits the ability to release ACh and may be implicated in disorders ...

I first summarize Baltag and Smets’ contribution to this volume, and praise their work. Then I compare the anti-lexicographic plausibility update that they propose to a proposal by Aucher, as an illustration of the difference between a qualitative and a quantitive formulation of updates. I quote Spohn’s original work that is at the root of research in plausibility updates and of the notion of a...

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a member of the TNF superfamily and has selective antitumor activity. Although TNF-α-induced intracellular signaling pathways have been well studied, TRAIL signaling is not fully understood. Here, we identified a novel TRAIL receptor-binding protein, protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), as a result of proteomic sc...
