Professional Interests - Sharing Research Areas and Networking Opportunities

This section is intended to help researchers and clinicians identify the existing range of topics that already have generated clinical research using the SCI and Control Therapy, and perhaps stimulate ideas about topics to purse in CT. Please click on the right to overview topics, countries where research has been/is being conducted, and languages in which SCI/CT research has been/is being conducted. Then click on any topic of interest to find further details.

You can also add your own areas of interest/research by clicking on "Add me to the interests list".

Over the past decades, researchers and clinicians throughout the world have corresponded with Dr. Shapiro expressing their interest in a variety of topics related to his work on Control Therapy, the SCI, eastern and western self-control techniques. He has invited them to share their topics, as a way to facilitate an interchange and networking of ideas and interests around topics of control assessment and therapy. This material is printed below.

Please feel free to scroll through it. If you would like to add your area(s) of interest, you are invited to do so below. Please list any publications related to Control Therapy or the SCI. Please also provide the keywords under which you feel your work best fits from those listed (or list other, as appropriate); as well as how you may best be contacted. If you are already listed, and have an updated contact, please add that.

Although this information is updated periodically, some of the information (email, phone number, etc...) may be out of date. The intention of this section is primarily to give people insights into the many different areas that are being researched.

Again, thank you for your interest and contribution.

Jim McQuade, M.D. resident. Jim this was a joy to read and a lovely reminder for me. Clearly a critically important (and tricky) topic. There are some areas where I think you need a bit more precision: 1) does gratitude “grow” naturally or does it need to be cultivated (or both 2) the issue of timing vis a vis adversity; 30view of nature of the universe does that affect, and/or is affected by practice of gratitude? I’m delighted had some effect on your practice, and you in turn n deepening mine. Warmly,

PS finally a hard question which you may not want to wrestle with in the paper (But I think we all have to wrestle with in life: is nearly half of the people on earth go to bed hungry, 60% life in slums, 70% are illiterate; (added 2023 from UNICEF: 26% don’t have clean water; 46% don’t have sanitation). How do we maintain both a sensitivity to that and keep a gratitude practice. Not a simple question, but I believe really important for us to explore.

Tonczyczyn, Heather, "Level of distress and perception of control in concerned significant others of substance abusers" (2006). Theses and Dissertations. 941. https://rdw.rowan.edu/etd/941

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the perception of control and level of distress in Concerned Significant Others (CSO) seeking help for their loved one's drug abuse or dependence; and the effect of Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) intervention on CSO's perception of control as a possible mediator of the outcome. Participants were part of a larger treatment study conducted at the Treatment Research Institute and consisted of two significant others of substance abusers. The Shapiro Control Inventory (SCI) and the Drinkers Partners Distress Scale (DPD) were used to assess variables of control and distress at intake, monthly, and after treatment. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive CRAFT or 12-Step facilitation. Preliminary results indicate a negative correlation between a CSO perception of control and level of distress (r=-.823, p=.192, n=2). However, due to lack of participants and data, results are inconclusive and cannot allow the determination of the relationship between distress and control or the effect the CRAFT intervention has on CSOs perception of control and level of distress.

Hi Dana, the two modes are different statistically; (where as Scale 3, negative sense of contorl IS the opposite of the positive sense of control) and therefore can be reversed. Therefore, it would be best to use Negative assertive and negative yielding separately. However, if you are trying to see if the “negative modes” impact your thesis, then it would be interesting to see what they results are (looking at them combined, and looking at them seperately).
