This paper proposes an analysis of a relatively under described existential construction in Tagalog. This construction at first glance appears to embed a relative clause under the existential predicate. However, it differs from this type of existential in two crucial respects. The complement of the existential verb allows extraction, demonstrating that it is not a DP. Additionally, rather asser...

The chronic state of whiplash-associated disorder (WAD) might be understood as a somatization of existential pain. Intervention aimed to improve quality of life (QOL) seemed to be a solution for such situations. The basic idea behind the intervention was holistic, restoring quality of life and relationship with self, in order to diminish tension in the locomotion system, especially the neck. A ...

Approaches to individual psychotherapy with incarcerated adolescents often discuss cognitive-behavioral therapy and solution-focused methods. The intention of this article is to promote a transpersonal approach to working with this population and to equip mental health professionals and interns with diverse psychotherapeutic methods that inform sound clinical practice. A transpersonal approach ...

Abstract interpretation is an excellent tool for designing complete dataflow analyses [6]. Existential quantification is an excellent tool for designing precise dataflow analyses. However, these two tools are difficult to combine. Abstract interpretation requires algorithms for deciding subtypes and constructing joins. This is problematic for existential quantification because simply subtyping ...

BACKGROUND A majority of people in Western Europe and the USA die in hospitals. Spiritual and existential care is seen to be an integral component of holistic, compassionate and comprehensive palliative care. Yet, several studies show that many nurses are anxious and uncertain about engaging in spiritual and existential care for the dying. The aim of this study is to describe nurses' experience...

We consider two kinds of reeective relational machines: the usual ones, which use rst order queries, and existential reeective machines, which use only rst order existential queries. We compare these two computation models. We build on already existing results for standard relational machines, obtained by Abiteboul, Papadimitriou and Vianu APV], so we prove only results for existential machines...

In this paper, we suggest a psychological theory of dependency as an escape from feeling existential suffering and a poor quality of life. The ways in which human beings escape hidden existential pains are multiple. The wide range of dependency states seems to be the most common escape strategy used. If the patient can be guided into the hidden existential pain to feel, understand, and integrat...
