It combats the deficit perspective that has permeated the psychological literature about African Americans by focusing on the strengths that have facilitated their growth and resilience—while also considering existing challenges and struggles.The author examines in depth the major areas of psychological research across family, peer, and romantic relationships, education, work, ethnic-racial socialization and identity, prosocial behavior and civic engagement, and the mental and physical health of African Americans today. With a focus on real life applications, the text includes pedagogical elements introducing topics in Current Events, Interventions in Practice, Individual Issues, African Cultural Values, and Media and Technology. Additional features include learning objectives in each chapter, discussion questions, a closing summary, an extensive trove of additional resources, and PowerPoints and a sample syllabus for instructors. Print version of book includes free, searchable, digital access to the entire contents.Key Features:Serves as the first text to examine African American psychology from a strengths-based perspective Grounded in a lifespan perspective Focuses on ethnic-racial socialization and ethnic-racial identity Addresses mental and physical health Demonstrates how communities have used strength-based techniques to achieve positive outcomes Integrate values common to Western Africa Includes learning objectives, discussion questions, closing summary, and boldfaced key terms Provides PowerPoints and a sample syllabus" -- Provided by publisherAfrican AmericansPsychologyPositive psychologyElectronic books.African AmericansPsychology.Positive psychology155.8496073DeFreitas Stacie Craft886044MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910467404803321African American psychology1978405UNINA07758nam 22008295 450 991030039120332120251230064157.09781461495000146149500810.1007/978-1-4614-9500-0(CKB)3710000000087947(EBL)1698431(OCoLC)881161894(SSID)ssj0001187604(PQKBManifestationID)11950737(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001187604(PQKBWorkID)11256834(PQKB)10406064(MiAaPQ)EBC1698431(DE-He213)978-1-4614-9500-0(MiAaPQ)EBC4976620(Au-PeEL)EBL4976620(CaONFJC)MIL600544(OCoLC)870647230(PPN)17674908X(EXLCZ)99371000000008794720140207d2014 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrUltra-Wideband, Short-Pulse Electromagnetics 10 /edited by Frank Sabath, Eric L.

Ultra-wideband (UWB), short-pulse (SP) electromagnetics are now being used for an increasingly wide variety of applications, including collision avoidance radar, concealed object detection, and communications. Notable progress in UWB and SP technologies has been achieved by investigations of their theoretical bases and improvements in solid-state manufacturing, computers, and digitizers. UWB radar systems are also being used for mine clearing, oil pipeline inspections, archeology, geology, and electronic effects testing. Like previous books in this series, Ultra-Wideband Short-Pulse Electromagnetics 10 serves as an essential reference for scientists and engineers working in these applications areas. Presents the state-of-the-art of ultra-wideband electromagnetics, signals, and systems Covers theory, technology, and cutting-edge applications Features selected, peer-reviewed contributions from the UWB-SP11 Conference in Toulouse, France.ElectrodynamicsElectronic circuitsTelecommunicationElectronicsClassical ElectrodynamicsElectronic Circuits and SystemsMicrowaves, RF Engineering and Optical CommunicationsElectronics and Microelectronics, InstrumentationElectrodynamics.Electronic circuits.Telecommunication.Electronics.Classical Electrodynamics.Electronic Circuits and Systems.Microwaves, RF Engineering and Optical Communications.Electronics and Microelectronics, Instrumentation.530535.2537.6621.3Sabath Frankedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMokole Eric L.edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtEbscoHost (Servicio en línea)MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300391203321Ultra-Wideband, Short-Pulse Electromagnetics 101768688UNINA
