命案侦查中警察的心理调适

2004年年初开展的全国公安机关“侦破命案专项行动”使各地公安机关都将“命案必破”作为公安工作的首要任务,面对比以前更加高标准、严要求,公安机关面临更多的压力和更高的工作强度。在命案侦破中,警察将面对巨大的压力;警察在命案侦破中要调节自己的心理状况,以适应工作的要求。     

Gender and Gender-Role Orientation Differences on Adolescents' Coping with Peer Stressors

Gender and gender-role orientation differences were explored on adolescents' coping with peer stressors. Eighth-grade and ninth-grade public junior high school students (N = 285) completed the COPE, reporting the strategies they recently used to deal with a stressful peer-related situation. Measures of gender-role orientation (Bem Sex-Role Inventory) and demographic information also were obtained. Factor analysis of the COPE revealed 4 distinct coping factors: active, avoidant, acceptance, and emotion-focused. The most frequently reported stressful event was arguments/fights with same-sex friends. Girls reported more arguments/fights with opposite-sex friends. Boys reported more physical fights and threats. Students' ratings of how much the situation mattered were used as a covariate in a MANCOVA to compare coping by gender and gender-role orientation, to control for perceived stressfulness of situations. Significant gender-role orientation differences were found for active, acceptance, and emotion-focused coping.     

Banking supervision and the politics of verification: the 2014 stress test in the European Banking Union

The statistical methodology known in financial terminology as ‘stress testing’ was used by the European Central Bank in 2014 in order to assess the solidity of the banks in the eurozone. This audit process is analysed here as a problem of truth production or ‘veridiction’ in the sense developed by Michel Foucault in his 1978–1979 lectures at the Collège de France. In order to prove effective, the stress test had to deliver knowledge on banks, objectified and actionable at once, but also controlled by the idea of avoiding ‘market panic’. This epistemological dilemma is at the core of the politics of verification, which consists in the distribution of restraint and responsibility between non-risky and risky banks. This qualitative investigation is focused on France and is based on interviews with relevant policy actors and documentary analysis.     

Not So Scary: Using and Defusing Content Warnings in the Classroom

Content warnings — notices to students that class material may evoke their past traumas — have become entangled in (over)heated debates about the role of free speech on campus. Critics denounce content warnings as silencing tools intended to promote censorship, preclude discussion of difficult topics or punish professors who hold unpopular views. Supporters too often conflate content warnings with broader demands for classroom “safe space” that fail to recognize the distinct features of posttraumatic stress as a form of mental illness. In this article, I reconceptualize content warnings as a way to facilitate access to course material for students with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I then offer a set of concrete strategies for employing content warnings in political science courses. These strategies aim not only to support students struggling with trauma but also to de-escalate the controversy around content warnings by emphasizing how such warnings work to encourage engagement, access, and discussion.     

Secondary traumatic stress and vicarious traumatization in child welfare professionals in Serbia

Child welfare professionals in diverse positions are exposed to a variety of traumatic events including family violence and child abuse and neglect. This secondary exposure puts child welfare workers at the risk of experiencing Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS) and Vicarious Traumatization (VT). For the first time in Serbia, this study quantitatively investigates whether STS and VT are present in child welfare professionals employed in the social welfare centers, foster care and adoption agencies, residential care programs, and shelters for children and youth. It attempts to identify whether the type of service, time exposure to clients, and supervision function as risk or protective factors for negative outcomes. A convenience sample comprised of 135 child welfare professionals completed a series of self-reported measures. Findings indicate that VT and STS are present in this population. Differences in the presence of STS and VT were found according to the types of services offered and length of exposure. Contrary to expectations, supervision was not a protective factor with regards to STS and VT in this population.     

A Qualitative Assessment of Stress Perceptions Among Members of a Homicide Unit

Existing research on stress among police assumes the presence of uniform stressors across job roles and borrows upon generic stress instruments to tap stress types and levels. The present study draws upon interviews with 26 members of a metropolitan homicide unit to provide an inductive vantage point on stress perceptions within a specialized area of policing. We provide evidence that the occupational and organizational forms of stress detailed by these officers are shaped largely by the unique nature of homicide work. Among the unique task-related stressors observed include the complexities of homicide crime scenes, time pressures, cases assignment factors, paperwork demands, and long-term ownership over individual case files. A series of structural issues from both within and outside the police agency are identified as organizational stressors unique to homicide work. We conclude with a proposed theory of homicide investigator stress and implications for future research.     

马齿苋对热应激小鼠空肠HSP70及肝脏抗氧化能力的影响

旨在探究马齿苋水提物(aqueous extract of Portulaca oleracea L.)对热应激小鼠空肠HSP70含量及肝脏抗氧化能力的影响。选取40只昆明种小鼠,随机分为4组:空白组(C)、热应激组(HS)、马齿苋水提物组(AEP)、维生素C组(Vc),每组10只。热应激组于40℃±1℃环境下每天处理0.5 h,其余时间置于30℃±1℃条件下,C组放置于25℃±1℃,连续6 d后,将小鼠置于25℃±1℃之环境给药治疗7 d。在给药治疗开始后第3天和第7天眶窦采血,处死后采集小鼠空肠、肝脏,测定各组小鼠血清HSP70含量、肝脏SOD、MDA及GSH-Px含量及空肠黏膜HSP70 mRNA表达量的变化。结果显示,与C组比较,热应激可显著提高小鼠空肠黏膜HSP70 mRNA表达量(P<0.01),提高肝脏SOD、MDA和GSH-Px的活性水平(P<0.01)。与HS组比较,给予马齿苋水提物后,可有效降低热应激小鼠血清HSP70含量和空肠黏膜HSP70 mRNA表达量(P<0.01)及肝脏MDA的活性水平(P<0.05),但对SOD和GSH-Px的含量无显著影响(P>0.05)。结论:马齿苋水提物能够通过降低热应激小鼠的氧化应激反应,减少热应激小鼠体内HSP70的表达量,达到良好的抗热应激效果。     

论刑事诉讼外部环境对错案的影响

刑事诉讼环境包括外部环境和内部环境。刑事诉讼环境会影响刑事诉讼过程，任何一个案件的刑事诉讼过程都无法脱离诉讼环境而“真空”地进行。刑事诉讼环境对诉讼过程的干预和影响是一柄双刃剑，一方面。来自诉讼环境的良性影响可以促使刑事司法机关对案件的重视，从而加大对该案件的诉讼力量，例如加大追诉力度、改善追诉条件。另一方面．来自诉讼环境的非良性影响容易导致刑事司法机关面对强大的外部压力而草率结案。从而形成错案。刑事诉讼外部环境导致错案的原因，在国内体现为缺乏法律依据的个案协调、不正确的新闻舆论导向，在国外体现为社群压力等。     

和谐社会视角下的公安机关网络舆情预警工作研究

舆情预警是公安机关正确决策、化解矛盾、维护稳定的重要前提。改进舆情监测工作,健全网络舆情预警机制,是构建社会主义和谐社会的必然要求。网络舆情预警机制是一个系统工程,公安部门需要做好舆情规划、舆情收集、分析处理、舆情预警四个环节的工作,把网络舆情信息汇集分析作为重点,同时利用先进技术作为保障。对于公安新闻的处理,公安机关可通过互联网平台与网民直接沟通来解决。
