The role of commercial qualitative research is to help guide client decision making. Its purpose - and the way in which it is evaluated - is primarily determined by its perceived usefulness. Until recently, there has been little focus on the theoretical underpinnings of qualitative practice. This has encouraged the development of conflicting paradigms; an unquestioned 'positivism' sitting alongside 'inter­pretivist' approaches. Arguably this has caused confusion and has limited the influence of commercial qualitative research at senior levels in organisations. This work sets out to strengthen theoretical understanding, practice and legitimisation of qualitative practice. It suggests that qualitative research needs to change in order to retain its relevance. Utilising thinking from complexity theory, social constructionism and relation­ship psychology, it offers a form of qualitative research, 'emergent inquiry', in which learning is an ongoing and creative process, not limited by methodology or client/researcher role. It involved developing and using our emotions and intuitions alongside our intellect to help generate flexible and constructive strategic business solutions..

Re-Defining Stress to Prevent Disease examines the causes of stress and how thoughts, perceptions, and learned experiences contribute to disease and illness Most people do not know how to live with stress. This lack of understanding causes the immune system to attack the body's organs, which in turn creates disease and illness at staggering rates. Stress cannot be eliminated; however it can be looked at differently, Re-Defined, to teach the brain how to handle a stressful event. In Jaffe's book, he educates the reader in a way that helps a person see stress positively, which in turn helps the immune system become stronger and fight off any pending illnesses and diseases..

We are now inhabiting an academic world filled with the prefix 'post' post-structuralism, post-modernism, post-colonialism, post-feminism, etc. More than debating the various connotations of the prefix, scholars are now increasingly engaged in identifying the space offered by it in order to interrogate, negotiate, and transform the movements defined by it. Re-defining Feminisms examines the process that paves the way for re-definition of the different types of feminisms in the Indian context. This critical anthology is the outcome of peer-reviewed and revised papers presented at a conference in India, and also includes a few invited contributions. While literature is the underlying matrix for the anthology, it covers diverse fields like fine arts, creative writing, social work, activism, media studies, and many more. The editors of the anthology have identified four stages to the process of re-definition namely, 'Re-design, ' 'Re-think, ' 'Re-view, ' and 'Re-mark.' All the contributio.

Description:
The Implicit Association Test (IAT; Greenwald, McGhee, & Schwartz, 1998) is a computer-based categorization task that measures concept association strengths. Greenwald et al. (1998) demonstrated that participants completed the categorizations more quickly when pleasant and flower shared a response key than when pleasant and insect shared a response key, and when pleasant and White shared a response key than when pleasant and Black shared a response key. In Study 1, we reversed the typical IAT effect for flowers and insects, and eliminated the typical IAT effect for White and Black, by changing the affective valence of the stimulus items. In Study 2, we replicated the reversibility effect for an animal and plant IAT, and supported a category re-definition hypothesis. Our results have implications for understanding the IAT, and suggest that the IAT not only measures stereotypic responses, but can also be influenced by individuating information of the stimulus items. .
