    Forming ideal types by understanding. Application to the psychoanalytic treatment of suicidal men

    No full text
    This paper discusses the application of a qualitative methodology—forming ideal types by understanding—to the psychoanalytic psychotherapy of suicidal men. The paper focuses on a particular phase of the methodology: the validation through external expert replication. Data of cases from psychoanalytic treatment, analysed by the originating group in Germany, is analysed by a group in London, UK, which formed to undertake the task of blind comparison. We describe the contribution of this method in the field of psychoanalytic research, the method developed for generating data and the processes through which data are analysed. We demonstrate the comparative findings from the first (German) and second (UK) analyses and explore the meanings of the similarities and differences. The paper concludes with an appraisal of the strengths and limitations (in terms) of moderate levels of generalisation of results from this method for research in the field of qualitative psychotherapy researc

    New records of Stratiomyidae (Diptera) from the Near East with a key to the species of Israel, Sinai and the Golan

    No full text
    A supplement is given to the publications of the senior author (Lindner, 1974 and 1975) on the Stratiomyidae of the Near East. Pachygaster atra Panzer and Aspidacantha atra Kertesz (Pachygastrinae) are recorded from the area for the first time. The male of Heradina galeata Lindner is described for the first time. New synonyms are established, and a key is given to all the species recorded so far from the area

    Dark sequential Z′ portal: Collider and direct detection experiments

    No full text
    We revisit the status of a Majorana fermion as a dark matter candidate when a sequential Z′ gauge boson dictates the dark matter phenomenology. Direct dark matter detection signatures rise from dark matter-nucleus scatterings at bubble chamber and liquid xenon detectors, and from the flux of neutrinos from the Sun measured by the IceCube experiment, which is governed by the spin-dependent dark matter-nucleus scattering. On the collider side, LHC searches for dilepton and monojet + missing energy signals play an important role. The relic density and perturbativity requirements are also addressed. By exploiting the dark matter complementarity we outline the region of parameter space where one can successfully have a Majorana dark matter particle in light of current and planned experimental sensitivities. © 2018 authors.

    Can Dark Matter Particles Be Detected Directly by Using a Xenon-based Detector?

    No full text
    Theoretical models suggest that a large part of our universe is made up of dark matter - this has not yet been directly observed but the existence of dark matter is inferred from its gravitational effects such as the rotation of galaxies. Currently researchers work on directly detecting these particles instead of just predicting them theoretically. In this video MANFRED LINDNER describes the detector used by the team of the XENON Dark Matter Project: Essentially, it is a vessel filled with liquefied xenon and equipped with highly sensitive light sensors. When a particle enters the detector, it will generate light pulses which enable the researchers to pinpoint the exact location of the interaction as well as the type of particle. The high sensitivity of the instrument requires that extreme care is taken to eliminate any background signals

    Researching the characteristics of stalkers

    Diplomska naloga Raziskovanje značilnosti zalezovalcev se osredotoča na pregled metodologije nekaterih obstoječih raziskav, ki se navezujejo na zalezovalce. Zalezovanje predstavlja kompleksen problem sodobnega časa, ki se dotika tako pravnih in psiholoških vidikov kot tudi družbe same. Velja za zapleteno obliko človeškega vedenja, ki ga je zaradi velikega obsega dejavnikov in zavedanja žrtve težko predvideti ter preprečevati. Raziskovalci se pri raziskovanju pogosto srečujejo s težavami, povezanimi z merjenjem občutljivih vedenj in motivacij zalezovalcev, zato je ustreznost merskih instrumentov in njihova izbira ključna za učinkovitejše razvijanje preventivnih in intervencijskih ukrepov. V diplomskem delu smo preverili, kako so značilnosti zalezovalcev raziskovali v obstoječi znanstveni literaturi s poudarkom na uporabljenih raziskovalnih pristopih, metodologiji in kakovosti zbranih podatkov. Glavni cilj je bil ugotoviti prednosti in pomanjkljivosti uporabljenih vprašalnikov. Analizirali smo vsebine 36 člankov, ki smo jih pridobili v podatkovni bazi Web Of Science in Cobiss. Ugotovili smo, da so metodološke značilnosti raziskav pogosto pomanjkljivo napisane. Raziskovalci so uporabili predvsem kombinacije prilagojenih avtorskih vprašalnikov, narejenih po literaturi drugih avtorjev in ocenjevalne lestvice. Vprašalniki so bili pogosteje navedeni kot veljavni, vendar delno kakovostni. Najpogosteje so raziskovalci uporabili neverjetnostno priložnostno in namensko vzorčenje. Majhni vzorci, možnost subjektivnosti, uporaba hipotetičnih scenarijev, napake samoporočanja in neodzivnost udeležencev so predstavljali najpogostejše omejitve raziskav.The thesis, Researching the characteristics of stalkers, focuses on reviewing the methodologies of existing studies on stalking. Stalking represents a multifaceted issue in modern society, involving legal, psychological and social dimensions. It is considered a complex form of human behaviour, which, due to the multitude of influencing factors and the victim\u27s awareness, is difficult to predict and prevent. Researchers often face challenges when studying sensitive behaviours and the motivation of stalkers, which is why appropriate measurement instruments are crucial for the effective development of preventive and intervention strategies. This thesis examines how the characteristics of stalkers have been studied in the existing scientific literature, with a focus on research approaches, methodologies and quality of collected data. The main goal was to determine the advantages and limitations of the questionnaires used. We have done a content analysis of 36 research articles retrieved from Web of Science and Cobiss. We found that the reporting of the methodologies was often insufficiently described. Most researchers relied on adapted, author-designed questionnaires and rating scales. The questionnaires were more frequently cited as valid but partly of limited quality. The most commonly used sampling methods were non-probability sampling, such as convenience and purposive sampling. Small samples, the possibility of bias, the use of hypothetical scenarios, self-reporting errors and non-responsiveness of participants represented the most common limitations of the studies
