    No full text
    Is spirituality one part of our lives that we experience in worship? Or does it permeate our whole being? Are we able to pull spirituality and religion apart?

In this inaugural episode of Critical Faith, Neal DeRoo explores these questions in his lecture "Toward a Material Spirituality: Religion and Phenomenological Expression." The recording is the first of three parts, all from a Scripture, Faith, and Scholarship Seminar hosted at the Institute for Christian Studies. Neal DeRoo is Canada Research Chair in Phenomenology and Philosophy of Religion and Associate Professor of Philosophy at The King's University in Edmonton, Alberta, and the author of Futurity in Phenomenology: Promise and Method in Husserl, Levinas, and Derrida (Fordham: 2013)

    The relationships between affective status, self-reported memory functioning, and memory performance in older adults: A correlational study.

    No full text
    The approach that has been used to examine affect and memory in later life has been narrow in two respects. First, most of the investigations have focused on depression. A few studies have examined anxiety, but as a unitary construct, rather than as the two component construct (emotionality and worry) that has prevaded work in the area of test anxiety. Second, when depression and anxiety have been the focus of research it has been at a global or general level, without attention to affect that is specific to memory. The present study examined the relations among global and memory specific depression, anxiety (i.e., emotionality), and worry, and self-reported memory and objective memory performance. One hundred healthy community-residing older adults between 64 and 75 years of age completed a battery of measures assessing global affect, memory specific affect, self-reported memory, and objective memory performance. Correlational analyses indicated that some global affect variables were correlated with self-reported memory, with global depression relating most highly, followed by global anxiety, and then global worry. The global affect variables were generally not associated with memory performance, although global worry was significantly associated with a few performance scores. Hierarchical regression analyses indicated that global anxiety was a reliable predictor of self-reported memory, and global worry was marginally predictive of performance on one of the tasks. Correlational analyses indicated that memory specific affect variables were correlated consistently with self-reported memory, with memory worry relating most highly, followed by memory anxiety, and then memory depression. The memory specific affect variables also were correlated with several performance scores. Hierarchical regression analyses indicated that none of the memory specific affect variables were predictive of self-reported memory or memory performance. In general, the findings of the study suggested that both global and memory specific affect relate more with healthy older adults' perceptions of their memory abilities and change in memory than with their actual memory performance.PhDPsychologyUniversity of Michigan, Horace H.
