They also understand the costs of negative publicity, bad public relations, and litigation on the survival of their enterprises. Violence in the workplace, whether it comes from the outside or originates from within, is a frightening prospect. How can it be prevented? Through real-world cases, Preventing Workplace Violence provides a detailed look at how traditional tools for occupational health and safety, discipline, and employee relations are inadequate and inappropriate in responding to the problem of workplace violence. In fact, the methods and approaches commonly in use actually worsen the problem in some cases. This book summarizes the most up-to-date learning in this area and offers practical guidance and recommendations for assessing the risk of violence, steps for preventing workplace violence, and a thorough discussion of employee rights and employer responsibilities. Highly recommended for employers, managers, union leaders, attorneys, consultants, and others who confront the issue of violence in the workplace. Preventing Workplace Violence will be invaluable to scholars and professionals in management, organizational studies, human resources, interpersonal violence, gender studies, industrial psychology, public administration, social psychology, sociology of work, social work, clinical and counseling psychology, business psychology, and organizational behavior.", "author": "Mark Braverman", "slug": "preventing-workplace-violence-577822-9781452221588-mark-braverman", "thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/9781452221588.png", "default_thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/default_book_thumbnail.jpg", "product_type": "book", "product_id": "577822", "product_url": "/app/ecom/book/577822/preventing-workplace-violence-577822-9781452221588-mark-braverman", "bisac_codes": [ "BUS030000", "P" ], "items_count": null, "identifiers": { "ISBN13": "9780761906155", "EISBN13": "9781452221588", "EISBN10": "1452221588" }, "drm": null, "cover_image": null, "default_cover_image": null, "book_type": null }, "relationships": { "lowest_offering": { "data": { "type": "offerings", "id": "00010037305159" } } } }, { "type": "Product", "id": "00010000577821", "attributes": { "name": "Assessing Allegations of Sexual Abuse in Preschool Children", "subtitle": "Understanding Small Voices", "description": "<p>Written to give the front line practitioner help in assessing and managing allegations of sexual abuse cases with children from the ages of 18 months to six years old, Small Voices provides concrete and easily understood information about basic child development, interview procedures, and case management theory.

The study attempted to look at the nature and extent of drug abuse among diverse populations living in a single metropolitan area, focusing particularly on underrepresented populations such as the homeless, the institutionalized, and juvenile offenders along with populations that have been studied in more depth, such as persons living in households. The goal was to not only establish prevalence, correlates, and consequences of drug abuse, but to establish a research model for conducting other such studies. Drug Use in Metropolitan America describes, relates, and integrates findings from the DC*MADS study. More than that, though, this book places the findings in the larger context of our national drug abuse problem. Therefore, while there is some reporting of findings, there is more emphasis on examining the policy, research, and program implications that flow from the studies.

In Taking Journalism Seriously: News and the Academy, author Barbie Zelizer discusses questions about the viability of the field of journalism scholarship and examines journalism as a discipline, a profession, a practice, and a cultural phenomenon.</p> <p>Taking Journalism Seriously argues that scholars have remained too entrenched within their own disciplinary areas resulting in isolated bodies of scholarship. This is the first book to critically survey journalism scholarship in one volume and organize it by disparate fields. The book reviews existing journalism research in such diverse fields as sociology, history, language studies, political science, and cultural analysis and dissects the most prevalent and understated research in each discipline. </p> <p>The author provides a critical mapping of the field of journalism studies and encourages academics to look at journalism from various disciplinary perspectives.

Social psychologist Catherine Cameron addresses this question in a unique 12-year study of adult survivors of sexual abuse. Five successive surveys combine the richness of intensive personal interviews with objective measures of progress. Fifty-one women were consistently faithful to the project, as Cameron sought to understand their early trauma, its lasting impact, and to monitor their progress toward recovery. A final survey (1998) provided the epilogue for their story. As the new millennium dawns, these survivors have become strong, vital, and caring women. They have also provided valuable information, with implications far beyond themselves. Cameron grounds their personal stories by citing stunning parallels to the larger field of national and international trauma. The result is a compelling and deeply human story of trauma and triumph that transcends narrow application.

Applying an integrative framework, the authors review twenty years worth of empirical and theoretical research in an attempt to reconcile often-conflicting conceptual models and competing empirical results. The authors present much of the relevant research in the context of the critical strategic decisions that executives must actually make with regard to human resource investments and deployments. As a result, often complex theoretical models and scientific findings are presented such that they are not only understandable but also highly relevant to non-research-oriented practitioners. </p> <p>Using real-world illustrations to clarify complex concepts and theories at the same time it provides a strong theoretical underpinning to basic models of HR strategy, Human Resource Strategy offers researchers a thorough review of literature in the field and the practitioner a useable guide to its application. </p>", "author": "Peter A.

Lonner, Western Washington State University This book celebrates Harry Triandiss overall contribution to culture and social psychology in general, and his most original and significant contribution to this area, the concept of subjective culture. In this volume, top cross-cultural researchers who are deeply familiar with Triandiss work critically examine the concept of subjective culture from a number of perspectives and extend it in many new directions of basic and applied social psychology. The result is an up-to-date examination of various topics and areas of social psychology from the unique perspective of subjective culture. One significant feature of this book is an attempt at framing and situating the concept of subjective culture within the current theoretical discourse on culture and psychology. Social Psychology and Cultural Context is the first survey of social psychology to integrate cross-cultural issues. This book not only utilizes several variants of the construct of subjective culture but also reflects the current state of affairs in the social domain of cross-cultural psychology. Written by world-renowned specialists, the chapters reflect valuable insights to students and researchers in both cross-cultural and social psychology. </p>", "author": "John Adamopoulos, Yoshihisa Kashima", "slug": "social-psychology-and-cultural-context-577797-9781452221205", "thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/9781452221205.png", "default_thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/default_book_thumbnail.jpg", "product_type": "book", "product_id": "577797", "product_url": "/app/ecom/book/577797/social-psychology-and-cultural-context-577797-9781452221205", "bisac_codes": [ "PSY031000", "P" ], "items_count": null, "identifiers": { "ISBN13": "9780761906377", "EISBN13": "9781452221205", "EISBN10": "1452221200" }, "drm": null, "cover_image": null, "default_cover_image": null, "book_type": null }, "relationships": { "lowest_offering": { "data": { "type": "offerings", "id": "00010037306180" } } } }, { "type": "Product", "id": "00010000577796", "attributes": { "name": "No More Bystanders = No More Bullies", "subtitle": "Activating Action in Educational Professionals", "description": "<p>\"The author strikes a great balance between text, action ideas, and survey questions.

Real examples of adolescents experiences regarding the effects of sexual abuse draw the reader in and help her relate the concepts to her own personal experience. Adolescent survivors who have used the book found the examples invaluable in bringing the concepts to life, making it clear that the survivor is not alone and that there are people who understand what its like to go through this type of trauma. A vocabulary is also introduced to the reader, enabling her to better communicate her experiences and feelings to others.
