TitleMonitoring Behavior and Supervisory Control
Author(s)Sheridan, T
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer US, 1976.
DescriptionX, 528 p : online resource
Abstract NoteThis book includes all papers presented at the International Symposium on Monitoring Behavior and Supervisory Control held at Berchtesgaden, Federal Republic of Germany, March 8-12, 1976. The Symposium was sponsored by the Scientific Affairs Division of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Brussels, and the government of the Federal Republic of Germany, Bonn. We believe the book constitutes an important and timely status report on monitoring behavior and supervisory control by human operators of complex man-machine systems in which the computer is sharing key functions with the man. These systems include aircraft and other vehicles, nuclear and more conventional power plants, and processes for the manu?? facture of chemicals, petroleum, and discrete parts. By "monitoring" we mean the systematic observation by a human operator of mul tiple sources of information, e. g. , ranging from integrated display consoles to disparate "live situations". The monitor's purpose is to determine whether operations are normal and proceeding as desired, and to diagnose difficulties in the case of abnormality or undesirable outcomes. By "supervisory control" we mean control by a human operator of a computer which, at a lower level, is controlling a dynamic system. In such systems, the computer-control normally operates continuously or at high data rates in loops closed through electromechanical sensors and motors. By contrast, the human operator normally signals or reprograms the computer intermittently or at a much slower pace. The human operator handles the higher level tasks and determines the goals of the overall system

TitleHandbook of Marital Therapy: A Positive Approach to Helping Troubled Relationships
Author(s)Liberman, Robert P;Wheeler, Eugene G;de Visser, Louis A.J.M;Kuehnel, Julie;Kuehnel, Timothy
PublicationNew York, NY, Springer US, 1980.
DescriptionXV, 262 p : online resource
Abstract NoteIn the treatment of marital problems, behaviorally oriented and com?? munication oriented approaches have been in conflict and seen as con?? trasting and unlikely bed partners. Many therapists, focusing on com?? munication skills, have felt that behaviorists were too structured and uncaring; on the other hand, behaviorists have considered humanistic therapists as being "touchy-feely," vague, and unfocused. However, in the Handbook of Marital Therapy, Liberman, Wheeler, de Visser, and the Kuehnels have wedded these two potent approaches into an inte?? grated framework that makes them loving bed partners. With over a decade of experience in applying behaviorally ori?? ented treatment to couples, Liberman and his co-authors have devel?? oped an educational model that focuses on teaching specific commu?? nication skills to couples. The communication skills they describe have been used extensively in all types of marital therapy, regardless of the therapist's theoretical orientation. The unique contribution of this book is that the authors provide a step-by-step approach to teaching these communication skills within a behavioral framework. Each chapter guides the therapist through the many issues and problems confronting him or her as a change agent. This highly readable book is enhanced by a liberal use of case exam?? ples. Emphasis is given to homework and structured sessions that focus on increasing specific communication skills in a sequential manner. The advantages of working with couples in a group setting are dis?? cussed, and concrete suggestions on how to manage these groups are clearly presented
