This edited collection offers a distinctive contribution to death studies by foregrounding analytical autoethnographic narratives from researchers and practitioners actively engaged in the field. Unlike works centred on personal bereavement, it explores the emotional and psychological residue left by prolonged scholarly encounters with death, dying, and end-of-life phenomena. The project's uniqueness lies in its multidisciplinary scope, international authorship, and integration of creative artifacts alongside textual analysis. It challenges conventional notions of subjectivity in qualitative research, reframing it as a vital, dialogic presence rather than bias. Contributors reflect on their own affective responses-grief, memory, sensory experience-while researching death spaces, death work, and the inheritance of death through ritual and conversation. The collection addresses a gap in scholarship by examining how researchers and practitioners are shaped by their fieldwork, offering therapeutic and introspective insights. Its organization around key thematic areas, and its cultural diversity, make it a valuable resource for scholars across disciplines, most notably death studies and (auto)ethnographic research, and anyone seeking to understand the complex interplay of emotion, memory, and research.

This open access book offers a critical appraisal of psychological research on creativity and insight, challenging the tautology that creative people have creative ideas. Instead, it demonstrates how insights emerge through interactive engagement with manipulable objects-physical or digital.

The author outlines an alternative methodology to trace the co-constitutive interaction between people and things. Using video analysis, he reveals creativity as distributed across person-object systems, with participants accomplishing insight through observable practices: moving, constructing, responding to what emerges. The focus shifts from analyzing cognitive processes to exploring how ideas stem from interaction with prototypes. Causal directionality is reversed: through making, ideas are discovered. A groundbreaking reflection on creativity and its dialogue with objects, this short monograph is an essential read for researchers in cognitive psychology, creativity studies, design, business, innovation management, and cognitive ethnography.

This book looks at therapeutic work with children and young people in ways which are distinct from pervasive mainstream conversations. Instead of being an intervention manual, this book focusses on the thought processes which practitioners in education and care settings undertake using vignettes and case studies. The book examines practice-related dilemmas as frequently from the perspective of the practitioner as the child, young person or their family. As such, it reflects the way in which the Mulberry Bush - an award-winning 75-year-old leading charity - functions, by outlining its psychodynamic, reflective and collaborative approach. Often the voice of practitioners (residential care staff, teachers and teaching assistants) is absent from books like this, despite being the individuals working directly with the children and families and whose experience are at the core, and so this title offers an innovative corrective.

Updated third edition covering every step of Experience Sampling Method research

As obvious as it may sound, the essence of human experience - our thoughts, emotions, behaviours and social interactions - plays out in the course of everyday life.

Experience Sampling Methodology (ESM) is the gold standard for studying people's experiences in their everyday environments. In this third edition of The Open Handbook, experts from the Center for Research on Experience Sampling and Ambulatory Methods Leuven (REAL) provide up-to-date, empirically based advice for designing, conducting and analysing ESM studies.

This comprehensive guide walks readers through every step of ESM research: from formulating research questions and optimally designing ESM studies and questionnaires, to addressing ethical considerations and practical issues such as power calculations, software choices and briefing/debriefing procedures. It also covers preprocessing and analysing intensive longitudinal data and explores future applications of ESM.

Each chapter of this third edition has been updated with the latest methodological developments and insights, and a new chapter on dyadic ESM research has been added. Ideal for both novice and expert researchers, this handbook is an invaluable resource for anyone embarking on ESM research.

This book reveals shame as a political, biological, and cultural inheritance, an architecture of feeling and power that silently shapes identity, belonging, and survival across South Asian diasporas.

At its core, it reframes shame through five interwoven characteristics: polarisation, hierarchy, intersectionality, weaponisation, and neuroticism, revealing how shame functions both as an emotional wound and a system of social control. It divides communities through caste and intragroup conflict; institutionalises inequality by assigning worth at birth; compounds harm through gender, colourism, class, and religion; and is wielded by dominant groups to maintain power. Internalised shame renders superiority and inferiority natural, even moral, turning difference into danger and kin into adversaries.

Drawing on historical analysis, psychological theory, and cultural narrative, the book shows how shame becomes embedded in the nervous system, carried across generations, and sustained by a conspiracy of silence. Colonialism, Partition, migration, and racism shape inner worlds, producing relational wounds that continue to define South Asian families, communities, and diasporic identities.

Introducing a suite of frameworks, the book offers culturally grounded psychological tools:

* South Asian Typology of Attachment: how early caregiving is shaped by intergenerational shame, duty, honour, caste, and emotional suppression.
* South Asian Ecological Systems theory: how trauma is transmitted through family dynamics, community expectations, caste structures, and ancestral trauma.
* South Asian Acculturation theory: how identity and belonging are negotiated across borders.
* Caste Trauma Transmission Model: how caste, patriarchy, supremacism, and capitalism reproduce trauma and shame across generations.
* South Asian Shame Model: revealing shame as a central organising principle of emotional and relational life, shaping behaviour and culturally patterned psychopathology.

Together, these frameworks move beyond Eurocentric psychology to offer a transformative account of the South Asian psyche. Ultimately, the book calls for breaking silences, challenging hierarchies, and imagining futures grounded in compassion, dignity, justice, and equity.

Our goal is to start a new spiritual care discourse and widen the lens of spiritual care, providing a more capacious, humanist methodology that demonstrates how the sharing of our respective spiritual skills will enhance the work of each discipline in healthcare. In turn, these changes could lead to much needed cultural shifts and social transformation for a more holistic person-centered care and less moral distress for healthcare workers. This anthology addresses key gaps in the current spiritual care literature, highlighting the shared transdisciplinary skills clinicians possess to support patients' and families' emotional and spiritual needs, as well as our individual and collective vulnerability in hospital settings.

This book explores the conflict between holding on to and letting go of loss,
paying homage to Freud's classic 'Mourning and Melancholia' and building
on its foundation with contemporary ideas.
Losses are met throughout life and are either accepted and mourned
or resented and denied. Sometimes mourning is inappropriate or premature
because losses can be prevented, and unfinished business needs to be
completed. Eventually, however, accepting and mourning the loss confers
enormous benefits, many of which arise from the development of symbolic
thinking that enables ghosts to be turned into ancestors. These themes are
explored in clinical material and in extracts from literature. They enable some
of the ideas of Freud, Klein, and Bion to be expanded and updated. The book
ends with an edited transcript of interviews discussing the author's personal
history in relation to his work.
With insights from across the author's distinguished psychoanalytic career
and a deep understanding of literature, this is key reading for all psychoanalysts,
and anyone who wants to understand loss.

Globalism, Psychoanalysis, and the Integration of Eight Global Ideologies argues that psychoanalysis helps us comprehend the different ideologies shaping our world today by examining eight distinct belief systems through their psychological and rhetorical roots, moving beyond simple Left-Right political polarization.

The work uses Freud's theory of psychology and politics to answer pressing contemporary questions including why people believe in conspiracy theories, why politics has become so polarized, and what drives people to join political cults. Each of the eight global ideologies is connected to specific childhood desires, relationships, and psychopathologies, offering a counter-narrative to evolutionary psychology approaches. The goal is to develop a new form of globalism that recognizes and integrates foundational human desires and different ideological frameworks rather than simply appealing to facts and reason alone.

This book will be a fascinating resource for psychoanalysts, as well as faculty and graduate students interested in psychoanalysis, political theory, and cultural rhetoric.

Human Trafficking and Lived Experience draws from extensive interviews with survivors of human trafficking, offering best practices for meaning-making through storytelling.

Exploitation in human trafficking has been vastly studied and discussed across various disciplines, but this book focuses on the power of stories: how to use them wisely, without retraumatizing survivors, but instead fostering their empowerment and resilience.

This is a vital guide for students and practitioners in cultural psychology, counseling, social work, and gender studies, as well as leaders in non-profit organizations and anti-trafficking task forces.

Psychology of Traffickers: Insights from Romanian Prisons offers a rare and methodologically rigorous examination of the moral and psychological worlds of individuals convicted of human trafficking. Based on in-depth qualitative interviews with 20 incarcerated traffickers in Romania, the book analyzes how exploitation is rationalized, normalized, and sustained over time within conditions of inequality, migration, and institutional constraint.

Rather than portraying traffickers as aberrant or pathological, Dr. Ludmila Bogdan situates their actions within everyday social and moral frameworks: intimate relationships, informal economies, gendered expectations, and bureaucratic systems that enable harm through routine practices and moral distancing. Through traffickers' own narratives, the book reveals how responsibility is displaced, coercion reframed, and exploitation rendered psychologically livable.

Integrating offender accounts with criminological and forensic psychological theory, the book develops empirically grounded typologies of trafficking involvement and moral coping. In doing so, it challenges simplified victim-perpetrator binaries and advances a structural, narrative-based understanding of trafficking as a social process rather than an exceptional crime.

Designed for forensic psychologists, criminologists, and scholars of violence and inequality, Psychology of Traffickers provides a critical framework for analyzing accountability, risk, and intervention by foregrounding the moral reasoning through which exploitation persists.
