A prospective examination of Beck’s cognitive theory of depression in university students in mainland China
The current multi-wave longitudinal study examined the applicability of Beck’s (1967, 1983) cognitive theory of depression to university students in mainland China. During an initial assessment, participants completed measures assessing dysfunctional attitudes and depressive/anxious symptoms. Participants subsequently completed measures assessing negative events and depressive/anxious symptoms once a month for six months. Results provided support for the applicability of Beck’s cognitive theory to university students in mainland China. More specifically, higher levels of dysfunctional attitudes were associated with greater increases in depressive symptoms following the occurrence of negative events. At the same time, contrary to findings obtained in Western samples, higher levels of dysfunctional attitudes were also associated with greater increases in anxious symptoms following the occurrence of negative events. These findings may suggest that dysfunctional attitudes exhibit non-specificity as a predictor of depressive symptoms in mainland China.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesby Darren Stolo
Alt-X turns 10: unclassifiable writing triumphs
Darren Tofts interviews American artist and author Mark Amerik
Black Swan, Darren Aronofsky
Diplomsko delo obravnava film Črni labod/Black Swan. Razčlenjuje mišljenje in delovanje glavnega filmskega lika in posledično splošno razumevanje človeka samega. Skozi film Črni labod sem iskal razlage o razvoju človekove osebnosti in jih s pomočjo teorij Sigmunda Freuda in Abrahama Maslowa razčlenil v razlagah filma po sekvencah. Vpliv družbe na posameznika je pomemben motiv v filmu, ki ga v nalogi razširjam s slogovnim zgodovinskim obdobjem dadaizma in predvsem nadrealizma in z razčlenjevanjem motiva laboda v književnosti in filmu. S tem pa poskušam pojasniti polje nezavednega, ki ga še vedno označujejo za bistveni del razlage osebnosti.
Človeška osebnost se oblikuje predvsem v obdobju odraščanja, zato sem se v nalogi najbolj posvetil temi razvoja iz otroka v odraslo osebo, ki jo razvija tudi režiser filma Darren Aronofsky.This thesis focusses on the film Black Swan. It deconstructs the thoughts and actions of the protagonist and through this, forms a possible understanding of the human being itself. Throughout the film the author has searched for the explanations of personal development, which he then analyses through Sigmund Freud\u27s and Abraham Maslow\u27s theories. Social influences upon an individual are an important motive in the filmin the thesis, this is examined through the lens of dadaism and surrealism and with the analysis of the swan motive in literature and in film. With this the author attempts to explain the field of subconscious, which is still perceived as a vital part of any explanation of personality.
The largest part of human personality is formed in the period of puberty, which is why the author has focused most of his attention upon the motive of a child growing into an adult, which is also the theme that the director Darren Aronofsky develops
