Background Communicative skills are one of the main deficits experienced by children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The differential diagnosis is a complex issue that clinicians often face. For this reason, this study has two objectives: 1) to analyze the similarities and differences that children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and children with ASD present in their linguistic and communicative skills, through parentś perceptions and narrative production; 2) to identify the relative importance of the skills analyzed in discriminating children with ASD versus children with ADHD, as well as the classification power of each of the two measurement methods used.

Affective Arousal During Blaming in Couple Therapy: Combining Analyses of Verbal Discourse and Physiological Responses in Two Case Studies

2016

Blaming one’s partner is common in couple therapy and such moral comment often evokes affective arousal. How people attune to each other as whole embodied beings is a current focus of interest in psychotherapy research. This study contributes to the literature by looking at attunement during critical moments in therapy interaction. Responses to blaming in verbal dialogue and at the level of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) were investigated in two couple therapy cases with a client couple and two therapists. Video-recorded couple therapy sessions were analyzed using discursive psychology and a narrative approach. The use of positioning, a discourse analytic tool, was also studied. ANS res…

Explanations of success and failure in management learning : What can we learn from Nokia's rise and fall

2016

International audience; In this paper, we study the changing explanations of success and failure over the course of a firm's history. We build on a discursive approach that highlights the role of narrative attributions in making sense of corporate performance. Specifically, we analyze how the Nokia Corporation was framed first as a success and later as a failure and how these dimensions of performance were explained in various actors' narrative accounts. In both the success and failure accounts, our analysis revealed a striking black-and-white picture that resulted in the institutionalization of Nokia's metanarratives of success and failure. Our findings also reveal a number of discursive a…

Gendered positioning: Addressing gendered power and cultural discourses in therapeutic conversations

2016

This research examined gendered positioning in therapeutic conversations, especially in treatment of intimate partner violence (IPV). A feminist-informed reading combined with a discursive psychological approach was applied in three studies on positioning in therapeutic conversations. This reading focused on gendered positioning, gendered power and cultural discourses. Thus, the aim of this research was to examine how gender is constructed in therapeutic conversations that deal with couple relationship issues, and how the power distribution this entails is addressed in these conversations. The data consisted of videotaped and transcribed couple therapy sessions and group treatment sessions …

Narratives of femininity as means of promotion : a case study on Dove's advertisement and audience responses

2017

Tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää, miten yritykset ja organisaatiot voivat hyödyntää kohderyhmiensä palautetta mainontansa kehittämisessä houkuttelevammaksi yleisöilleen. Sosiaalisen median nousun myötä myös yritysten ja asiakkaiden välinen suhde on murroksessa, kun yritysten sijaan potentiaalisilla asiakkailla on valta määritellä, millaista sisältöä he haluavat. Tutkielma on tapaustutkimus Doven Real Beauty -kampanjan kahdesta mainoksesta, #ChooseBeautiful ja #MyBeautyMySay. Tutkimuksessa tutkitaan, miten mainokset luovat narratiiveja naiseudesta hyödyntäen semioottisia ja diskursiivisia resursseja, ja miten näiden narratiivien avulla pyritään mainostamaan tuotetta ja brändiä.
