Interview with Cathy Ulrich
No full textThis spring, the students in UND’s ENGL 414 workshop (The Art of Writing Fiction) read a collection of micro and flash fictions titled Ghosts of You, by Cathy Ulrich. With its use of second person and a penchant for turning tropes of crime fiction on their heads, this book is a must read. Three ENGL 414 students had the opportunity to interview the author via email to discuss Cathy Ulrich’s intentions in Ghosts of You, as well as her own personal writing techniques. To borrow from how each story in Ghosts of You begins, “The thing about being the [interviewer] is you set the plot in motion.” Floodwal

Guided parent-delivered cognitive behaviour therapy for children with anxiety disorders: outcomes at 3- to 5-year follow-up
No full textObjectives: Brief Guided Parent-delivered CBT has been developed to meet the demand for non-intensive interventions for children with anxiety disorders, and initial trials have shown it to be effective for children with a range of anxiety disorders. The current study examined outcomes three to five years post-treatment.
Design: A long-term follow-up cohort study
Methods: Families who (i) received active treatment of guided parent-delivered CBT for childhood anxiety as part of an RCT, (ii) completed at least 50% of allocated treatment sessions, (iii) provided consent to be re-contacted, (iv) had not received further mental health interventions, and (v) were contactable were invited to take part. 57 families (29% of the original sample) , completed structured diagnostic interviews on average 50 months after treatment (39-61 months).
Results: At long-term follow-up, 79% of the assessed children who had received the treatment no longer met criteria for their primary diagnosis, 63% did not meet criteria for any anxiety disorder, and 61% did not meet criteria for any DSM-IV disorder. Treatment gains were mostly maintained (60%), and some children went on to recover during the follow-up period without additional input from mental health services (19%). Few young people had relapsed since their last assessment (12%). Mean scores on standardised symptom questionnaires were within the normal range.
Conclusions: Children who recovered from anxiety disorders following Brief Guided Parent delivered- CBT typically maintained good outcomes and few relapsed. These findings suggest that this is a viable first line, low intensity treatment approach. This study only included a small subsample of those in the original RCT (29%) and more information is required about those who dropped out of treatment and those that required further intervention immediately after treatment

Young people's help-seeking: an alternative model
No full textThis article is based on a study of young people's help-seeking. Fifty-five qualitative interviews with young people aged 13–14 are analysed to take account of stage process models. It is argued that while the models do have relevance to young people's help-seeking, they have two key limitations. First, they ignore problem legitimization. Second, they do not accord a place in young people's currenthelp-seeking to prior help-seeking pathways. The view that stage process models represent help-seeking as individualized and static led to the formulation by the author of an alternative help-seeking model, in which problem legitimization from micro to macro levels is incorporated alongside young people's prior helpseeking pathways. <br/

Cliffs of Tojinbo
No full textIf I were a temporary worker in Japan, I would take one of my days off and go to Tojinbo to gaze out over the sea. This would be out of character for me. I would never have gone to the sea except as a child, when my parents would have dipped my toes in and out of the Pacific until I cried
