    Pop-up shops for increasing employability and contributing to civil society in times of austerity

    Hill, Inge; Bass, Tina (Springer, 2019-09-24)
    This chapter discusses a learning and teaching unit pop-up shop rooted in experiential learning. This pop-up shop learning activity aims to increase employability and educate young learners how to contribute to civil society. The discussion offers a reflection on how lecturers’ roles are changing in response to the austerity informed UK policies and HE measures. Universities are increasingly required to generate larger numbers of enterprising, employment-ready graduates. Increased monitoring of the efficient use of public spending in HE has seen the introduction of the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) bringing more focus on employability rates, which in turn help to determine university rankings. These rankings put pressure on HE senior management, which is then passed down through the hierarchy to lecturers. The detailed guidance on how to run pop-up shops offers a pragmatic answer to the outlined challenges to inspire lecturers to develop their learning and teaching strategies. Particular attention is paid to developing reflective skills in learners.

    The impact of self-criticism and self-reassurance on weight-related affect and well-being in participants of a commercial weight management programme.

    Duarte, Cristiana; Stubbs, James; Pinto-Gouveia, José; Matos, Marcela; Gale, Corinne; Morris, Liam; Gilbert, Paul (Karger, 2017-04-04)
    Objective: Certain psychological and emotional factors can undermine attempts at weight management. Previously we have found that shame and self-criticism were significantly associated with disinhibition and perceived hunger in 2,236 participants of a weight management programme. This effect was fully mediated through weight-related negative affect. The present study examined the impact of self-criticism and self-reassurance on well-being and whether it was mediated by weight-related affect in the same population. Methods: Participants completed an online survey of measures of self-criticism and self-reassurance, and negative and positive affect associated with weight and well-being. Results: Path analysis suggested that self-criticism was significantly associated with decreased well-being, both directly and indirectly, mediated by increased negative and decreased positive weight-related affect. Self-reassurance had a stronger association with increased well-being by predicting lower negative and increased positive weight-related affect. All effects were significant at p < 0.001. Conclusion: Self-criticism and self-reassurance were related to well-being in participants attempting to manage their weight, both directly and through their impact on weight-related affect. The positive association between self-reassurance and well-being was stronger than the negative association between self-criticism and well-being. Supporting the development of self-reassuring competencies in weight management programmes may improve weight-related affect and well-being.

    A tailored compassion-focused therapy program for sexual minority young adults with depressive symotomatology: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

    Pepping, Christopher A.; Lyons, Anthony; McNair, Ruth; Kirby, James N.; Petrocchi, Nicola; Gilbert, Paul (Biomed Central, 2017-03-01)
    Background: Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) men and women represent one of the highest-risk populations for depressive symptomatology and disorders, with young LGB adults being at greatest risk. To date, there have been no randomized controlled trials (RCT) to specifically target depressive symptoms in young LGB adults. This is despite research highlighting unique predictors of depressive symptomatology in this population. Here we outline a protocol for an RCT that will test the preliminary efficacy of a tailored compassion-focused therapy (CFT) intervention for young LGB adults compared with a self-directed cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) program with no specific tailoring for LGB individuals.

    Narcissism, social anxiety and self-presentation in exercise.

    Akehurst, Sally; Thatcher, Joanne (Elsevier, 2010-04-10)
    In an exercise setting where impression motivation might be high but self-presentation efficacy low, social anxiety is likely to occur (Schlenker & Leary, 1982). Narcissism is, however, associated with low anxiety, high confidence, and a keenness for social evaluation (Wallace, Baumeister, & Vohs, 2005) and therefore may protect exercisers from social anxiety. One hundred and sixty undergraduates (88 males and 72 females; Mage = 20.45 years, SD = 2.49 years) completed measures of narcissism, social anxiety, and self-presentation in exercise. In females, narcissism moderated the impression motivation/construction– social anxiety relationships. Findings extend our understanding of the self-presentational processes involved in exercise and, specifically, how narcissism protects individuals from experiencing high social anxiety.

    Chancel frequencies.

    Locke, Caroline (20-21 Arts Centre, 2015)
    Chancel Frequencies at 20-21 Arts Centre featured three works especially selected to respond to the former church building as a contemplative space, portraying images of sound, which are otherworldly, and designed to encourage contemplation. Circular projections show vibrations caused by different sound waves through water, filmed as part of her previous Sound Fountains project. In a new site specific work, three shallow steel pools made in the shape of the church window contain motors causing gentle ripples that will be reflected on the surrounding walls. Finally on a wall mounted screen, a film loop shows a single tuning fork shifting between 25Hz and 16Hz – made in connection with Frequency of Trees.This was a commissioned Exhibition at 20-21, from July 9th – October 9th 2015.

    Time tides: An exploration of dynamic loop-based performance diffused in a multi-channel environment.

    Vandemast-Bell, Paul; Brown, Michael (Sounds in Space Symposium, 2017-06-27)
    This performance at Sounds in Space Symposium (University of Derby) by the audio-visual duo, Time.lus, explores (through live interaction) the dynamic dialogue between rhythmic, audio-visual materials in space. Original source material is presented then deconstructed and improvisationally reimagined in real-time, to create synchronous / asynchronous rhythms and textures. The work is evolved through the use of audio-visual effects and dynamic processors.

    Making shaking shifting pouring sawing.

    Locke, Caroline; Swann, Debra (Primary Studios Nottingham, 2017-02)
    Making Shaking Shifting Pouring Sawing is an investigation that explores the idea of repeated and intensive labour in relation to artistic and domestic process. The work features cyclical movement, made and found objects, sound, data, video, animation and live performance. This collaborative research with Debra Swann has developed through a series of residencies at Primary, Nottingham and Summer lodge at Nottingham Trent University 2016. Our first exhibition was in Antwerp, Belgium, at Collective National Gallery in 2016 (Collective National was founded by Janna Beck, Lecturer at The Academy in Antwerp) and then an exhibition at Primary, Nottingham 2017 Through collaborative fieldwork we have developed a number of performances and objects around the themes of repeated or iterative labour in relation to the artistic process. Objects perform; we make, we operate, we facilitate or manage and we gather data. Through durational live performances and events an audience can experience the work and its temporal quality. We document the tasks we undertake and collect data/material from objects whilst exploring processes through repetitive tasks, systems or routines. This is reinvested into the work, by way of sound, image or video creating an ongoing process. There is a play between the hand made and the machine, the analogue and the digital.

    Self-confidence and performance: A little self-doubt helps.

    Woodman, Tim; Akehurst, Sally; Hardy, Lew; Beattie, Stuart (Elsevier, 2010-06-04)
    Objectives: To test the hypothesis that a decrease in confidence on a well-learned task will increase effort and performance. Design: A 2 (group: control, experimental) 2 (trial: practice, competition) mixed-model with repeated measures on the second factor. Method: Expert skippers’ (n ¼ 28) self-confidence was reduced via a combination of task (i.e., change of rope) and competitive demands. Performance was the number of skips in a 1-min period. On-task effort was measured via the verbal reaction time to an auditory probe. Results: The group trial interaction (F (1, 26) ¼ 6.73, p < .05, h2 ¼ .21) supported the hypothesis: Posthoc tests revealed a significant decrease in self-confidence and a significant improvement in performance from practice to competition for the experimental group only. No significant effort effects were revealed. Conclusions: Some self-doubt can benefit performance, which calls into question the widely accepted positive linear relationship between self-confidence and performance. As effort did not increase with decreased confidence, the precise mechanisms via which self-confidence will lead to an increase or a decrease in performance remain to be elucidated.

    The Hastings sound fountain.

    Locke, Caroline (FACT, Liverpool, 2015-07)
    I am interested in ‘Performing data’, revealing data to an audience in various embodied forms - sometimes slowly, sometimes live – to elicit emotions, engage the imagination, and to inspire an audience to reflect. Making links to our natural world and exposing the beauty of it is of high priority to me, as an artist and I am keen to find innovative ways of communicating scientific and environmental research to a public audience. The Hastings Sound Fountain at FACT was controlled by data being sent LIVE from Hastings Pier. A sensor on the end of the pier is recording the rise and fall of the sea level and the levels trigger the rise and fall in the sound frequencies being sent to the Fountain. As the sensor tracks the rise and fall of the sea, frequencies sweep through the Sound Fountain, causing ripples and waves on the water surface. A visualisation of the live data and footage of the sea beneath the sensor can be projected or viewed on a monitor close to the fountain.

    ‘Do you practice what you preach?’ A qualitative exploration of therapists' personal practice of compassion focused therapy.

    Gale, Corinne; Schröder, Thomas; Gilbert, Paul (Wiley, 2015-12-21)
    Background Therapists' personal practice of therapy techniques can impact on a range of areas, including: empathy for the client, therapeutic understanding, therapist skills and self-awareness. Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) draws extensively on personal practice during training, and on-going personal practice is encouraged. However, the impact of this has not been examined.
