Professional clinical ergologists
Improving the understanding of the linguistic needs of diverse talking- therapies to practitioners – with additional work on how practitioners for whom English is not their first language can be better trained.
There is an enormous shortage of talking therapists in general – and specifically of those trained in cognitive and sub-cognitive behavioural therapies. The establishment of clinical eurgology as a stand-alone discipline will put even more pressure on training but little work has been undertaken on why some practitioners have more skill in the use of language, tone and rhythm than others. And if increasing the number of talking-therapy students for whom English is not their first language is seen as a possible solution, it is even more imperative that a comprehensive understanding of these factors is available.
Lost research
Despite job-stress being a stated priority in China, large amounts of research and philosophy on the subject is not easily available in English. This project searches for researchers working in stress in the PRC and in the former Soviet Union with the aim of publishing a learned journal in English, French, Russian and Chinese from St Petersburg.
