Psychology/Psychiatry/Counseling Dictionaries and Encyclopedias

Benner, D. (Ed.). (1999). Baker encyclopedia of psychology & counseling. Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Books. (1st floor, REF BF31.B25 1999).
Provides thorough coverage of psychological terms, concepts, and research from a Christian point of view, identifying the issues and applications of particular importance from that perspective and duggesting ways of evaluating the concepts, theories, and research findings in terms of biblical teachings. This first update since 1985 takes the 1994 publication of the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders into account and offers improved cross-referencing. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Colman, A.M. (2001). A dictionary of psychology. New York : Oxford University Press. (1st floor REF BF31.C65 2001).
Perhaps one of the most useful, but certainly the most delightful feature of the dictionary are the Greek and Latin roots or other origins that Colan (psychology, U. of Leicester) provides in nearly every entry. He offers definitions of the most important and difficult words readers are likely to encounter in books and articles on psychology. In addition to the basic terminology of psychology and psychiatry, he delves into technical areas of neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, psychopharmacology, and statistics where most such references dare not tread. He cross-references extensively rather than indexing. c. Book News Inc.

Corsini, R.J. (Ed.). (1994). Encyclopedia of psychology. New York: John Wiley & Sons. (1st floor, REF BF 31.E52)
The first edition of this work (Wiley, 1984) won two prestigious awards. With well over 400 contributors, approximately 2500 articles, and about 15,000 references (not including duplications), this current four-volume edition may prove to be a winner as well. The first three volumes contain the complete text, while the fourth offers a biographical dictionary of prestigious psychologists, a huge bibliography, a list of ethical principles and conduct codes for psychologists, and a name and
subject index. The signed entries vary in length and include cross references and lists of further references, where possible. Subtopics are accompanied by charts, graphs, pictures, or drawings. A particularly interesting section deals with places (i.e., histories of psychology and examinations of national viewpoints regarding research and therapy in regions like Africa, Canada, and Latin America). Additionally, the articles about the psychology of music, money, law, and the arts are valuable sources of information. (from Einstein Catalog).

Corsini, R.J. (1999). Dictionary of psychology. Philadelphia, PA: Brunner/Mazel. (1st floor, REF BF31.C72 1999).
The most comprehensive, up-to-date reference of its kind, "The Dictionary of Psychology" maintains a user-friendliness throughout, a combination which ensures that it will serve as the definitive work for years to come.

Hersen, M. (Ed.). (2002). Encyclopedia of psychotherapy. San Diego, CA: Elsevier Science. (1st floor, REF RC475.7 .H47 2002).
Psychotherapy is the dialogue between patient and therapist in the diagnosis and treatment of behavioral, crisis, and mental disorders. Psychoanalysis as formulated by Sigmund Freud is the first modern form of psychotherapy and this approach has given rise to several score of psychodynamic therapies. In more recent times behavioral, cognitive, existential, humanistic, and short-term therapies have been put into practice, each with a particular focus and each giving rise to variations in structure and content of treatment as well as therapeutic outcomes. These therapy approaches relate the patient/therapist dialogue to different aspects of the therapeutic process.
For instance, behavior therapies focus on the patient's conduct and cognitive therapies treat the client's thought processes. The Encyclopedia will cover the major psychotherapies currently in practice as well as the classical approaches that laid the foundation for the various contemporary treatment approaches. In addition, the Encyclopedia will identify the scientific studies conducted on the efficacy of the therapies and review the theoretical basis of each therapy. (from Amazon Bookstore web site).

Kazkin, A.E. (2000). Encyclopedia of psychology. New York: Oxford University Press. (1st floor, REF BF31 .E52 2000).
Developed and published in co-operation with the American Psychological Association, this encyclopaedia will become the basic reference in the many academic and professional disciplines known collectively as psychology. A combination of historical, descriptive, synthetic, and analytic articles will cover topics raging from educational, clinical and experimental psychology to personality, organizational/industrial, and social psychology as well as psychoanalysis and cross-cultural psychology. Some exampls of the contents include :A handbook of tools - research design and statistics, testing and assessment; On body and mind, brain and behavior; The self among others - the worlds of the personal, interpersonal, and the social; Tracing development across the lifespan; Institutions and environments: interactions with family, school and work; Cultural and cross-cultural psychology; Mental health and mental disorders; Interventions for health and wellness; and Psychology and the larger world. .

Ramachandran, V. S (Ed.). (1994). Encyclopedia of human behavior. San Diego, CA: Academic Press. (1st floor, REF BF31.E5).
This encyclopedia fills a 20-year need for a comprehensive reference source in this area of study. Though there have been major advances in our understanding of human behavior, particularly in the fields of neuroscience and psychology, until now no interdisciplinary or encyclopedic source has updated Robert Goldenson's Encyclopedia of Human Behavior (1970). The encyclopedia is organized alphabetically by subject. Essays are written by experts in the field and contain an outline of contents, a glossary, and a comprehensive discussion that includes history, theories, theorists, implications, interventions, treatments, and conclusions. Articles are cross-referenced and a bibliography is included for each entry. A very good index provides a complete listing of where and in what context a topic is covered within the broad subject areas. (from Einstein Catalog).

Psychologists Dictionaries and Encyclopedias

Kimble, G.A. (Ed.). (1991). Portraits of pioneers in psychology. Hillsdale, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates.(1st floor, REF BF109.A1 P67 1991).
Presents the pioneering contributions to psychology of 22 men and women from an informal and personal perspective. All but one of these pioneers were born in the 19th century, and most became very influential in their field. The book contains a nice mix of approaches and styles. There are chapters on Freud, James, Hull, Watson,
Calkins, Wertheimer, Lashley, Tolman, Heidbreder, and many others. There is, however, a certain arbitrariness in the selection of pioneers for example, there is little on structuralism, though there is an interesting piece on Titchener. The quality of the chapters, written by experts in the field, is almost uniformly excellent. Many are entertaining and provide important insights into the thinking and personalities of the pioneers, while some concentrate on their lives, and others on their intellectual contributions. It is an interesting blend, but readers should not expect exhaustive analyses of the pioneers' work. (from Einstein Catalog).

Sheehy, N.(Ed.). (1997). Biographical dictionary of psychology. New York : Routledge Reference. (1st floor, REF BF109.A1 B56 1997).

Few people are fully aware of the psychological and sociological implications of different tyeps of deafness, or of the problems of deaf people with disabilities, and few members of the caring professions have any training in this field. This clear, practical book, by one of the world's leading psychiatrists in work with deaf people, outlines the nature of the different kinds of deafness and covers both clinical and service aspects of working with deaf people. This book includes many illustrative examples and is written not only for professionals in the mental health field, but also for all those whose work brings them into contact with deaf children and adutls. Because deafness is not a 'visible' problem, it is often difficult to take account of the problems that deaf people face, and this book will be of particular use in helping to understand better the nature of deafness and to recognize mental disorder.

In this book, the shift from a medical-pathological view of deafness to one culturally centered is applied to the field of psychotherapy for deaf persons. That comprehensive understanding of signed language and deaf culture is crucial to successful treatment of deaf clients in mental health settings is amply demonstrated throughout the volume. The first half of the book is applicable not only to mental health professionals but also to any professional who works with deaf clients. The second half is more focused toward the mental health profession. As a whole, the book provides a valuable combination of theory and practical tips. Book jacket.

Deaf adults and children, like their hearing counterparts, experience a full range of mental health problems. They develop psychoses, sink into depressions, abuse alcohol and drugs, commit sexual offenses, or simply have trouble adjusting to life situations. But when a deaf client appears on the doorstep of an ordinary hospital, residential facility, clinic, or office, panic often ensues. Mental Health Care of Deaf People: A Culturally Affirmative Approach offers much-needed help to clinical and counseling psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, nurses and other mental health professionals -- and to their program administrators. The editors (a psychologist and a psychiatrist) and the authors (leading authorities with a variety of experitises) systematically review the special needs of deaf patients, particularly those who regard themselves as "culturally Deaf," and provide professionals with the tools they require to meet those needs. Among them is an extensive "library" of pictorial questionnaires and information sheets developed by one of the very few psychiatric units in the country devoted to the deaf. These handouts greatly simplify the processes involved in the diagnosis and treatment of people who in many cases are not good readers of English -- for example, explaining psychiatric symptoms and medication side effects. The handouts are reproduced on a CD included in each copy of the book, to enable purchasers to print out and use copies in their work. This comprehensive clinical guide and its accompanying CD constitute vital resources for all those who seek to provide sensitive, effective mental health care to deaf people. Book jacket.

*Gutman, V. (Ed.). (2002). Ethics in mental health and deafness. Washington, DC: Gallaudet University Press. (3rd floor, RC451.4.D4 E86 2002).
This volume explores ethical issues specific to working with deaf clients, including matters of confidentiality, managing multiple relationships, and the clinician's competency to provide services, particularly in communicating with and understanding deaf people. Led by editor Virginia Gutman, a unique assembly of respected mental health professionals share their experiences and knowledge in working with deaf clients. Irene Leigh commences the book with her varied experiences as a deaf mental health practitioner, and Gutman follows with insights on ethics in the "small world" of the Deaf community. William McCrone discusses the law and ethics, and Patrick Brice considers ethical issues regarding deaf children, adolescents, and their families. In contrast, Janet Pray addresses concerns about deaf and hard of hearing older clients. Minority deaf populations pose additional ethical questions, which are detailed by Carolyn Corbett. Kathleen Peoples explores the challenges of training professionals in mental health services specifically for deaf clients. Closely related to these topics is the influence of interpreters with deaf clients in mental health settings, which Lynnette Taylor thoroughly treats. This text also features a chapter on genetic counseling and testing for deafness by Kathleen Arnos. The final section, written by Robert Pollard, examines ethical conduct in research with deaf people, a fitting conclusion to a volume that will become required reading for all professionals and students in this discipline.

What are the current trends in the issues facing deaf people with mental health needs? What are the subjective views of deaf people themselves? Are the current forms of intervention merely sticking plaster thus avoiding the real issues? These are the sort of questions addressed by the 18 authors in their attempt to provide the field with an alternative, non-medical perspective on mental health and deafness. The book consists of the following contributions: Doug Alker charts the passage of institutional oppression facing deaf people, John Denmark examines the growth of the field from its modest beginnings, Kathy Robinson examines the impact upon the family of meeting deafness as culture, Jill Jones argues that a healthy deaf identity and the acquisition of BSL are interwoven, Annette Joseph examines the complex cultural issues facing black deaf children, Wendy McCracken offers a paradigm for the teaching of sex education to deaf people, Margaret Kennedy argues for the non-medicalisation of child sexual abuse, Sharon Ridgeway assesses the criminal justice system's inept handling of abuse cases, Alice Thacker offers an insight into schizophrenic sign, Susan Phoenix proffers a model for family intervention using total communication, Lee Fullwood and Philippa Clark offer a school-based model for handling problem behavior, Sally Austin and Herbert Klein present a cognitive behavioral approach to psychopathy, John Vaughan shows how NVQs can be used to train deaf people as mental health workers, Jim Kyle offers an insight into the roles and adaptations evolving from deaf-hearing interaction, Paul Redfern argues that deaf people should develop their own professional support structures, and Carlo Laurenzi concludes the book by challenging the field to face up to the real issues of the day.(from book jacket).

Providing an in-depth examination of the impact of deafness on cognitive and psychosocial development, this clearly written book synthesizes salient theory and research findings from an interdisciplinary perspective. >The issues behind the clinical vs. cultural debate are explored in detail, including oralism, total communication, and the use of American Sign Language -- the three major communication philosophies currently influencing the education of deaf children. With the exception of a chapter on culture and identity, the major focus of the book is on individuals with severe to profound hearing impairment. Whether these individuals are linked to a world of vision or a world of audition is explored in some detail; the authors point out the pervasive implications of this issue for the development of cognition, language and literacy.

In addition, it provides the reader with a review of assessment instruments, counseling techniques and therapeutic models. Family dynamics are discussed from a multiplicity of ethnic backgrounds reflecting the cultural diversity that is evident within the Deaf community.

*Vernon, M. & Andrews, J.F. (1990). The psychology of deafness: Understanding deaf and hard of hearing people. New York: Longman. (3 copies- 4th floor, HV2395.V47 1990).
Hearing loss is the most prevalent chronic health problem in the U.S., yet little attention has been given to understanding the psychological implications for deaf and hard of hearing persons. In this text, the authors argue that deafness is a psychological variable that causes the life experiences of the hearing to consistently differ from those of the deaf and hard of hearing. Covering all levels of hearing loss-from prelingual and profound deafness to a partial and mild hearing loss, the text demonstrates how and why a hearing loss creates psychological stress regardless of its degree, basic principles of psychodiagnosis with deaf persons, and suggestions for working more efficiently with the deaf community. The following areas are featured: A comprehensive section on the American deaf community and the causes of deafness, A comparison and analyssi of forms of communication used by the deaf, An examination of the pressures deafness imposes and the attitudes of hearing people toward deaf children and adults, A section on diagnosis aimed at reducing the amount of misdiagnosis with deaf children, and a bilingual/bicultural approach toward helping deaf children learn.

In most European countries mental health care is not accessible for deaf clients or patients: there is a communication gap between professional and patient and on average mental health care professionals do not have sufficient knowledge of deafness and its consequences. So a deaf person in need of psychiatric help often cannot find a psychiatrist capable to help him. Among other problems in the field of mental health care of deaf patients the main problem seems to be a lack of knowledge among the workers. Therefore this conference was organized and more are planned for the future. (from book jacket).
