Getting into the Same Boat – Enabling the Realization of the Disabled Child’s Agency in Adult–Child Play Interaction
2021
The purpose of this study was to find out how an adult can enable or hinder the realization of a disabled child’s agency in play interaction. We focused on the child’s play invitations, which were constructed as dispreferred by the adult. The data consisted of nine videotaped playing situations with five nurses and five disabled children in a children’s neurological ward. The microanalysis with interventionist applied conversation analysis focused on one playing situation between one nurse and one three-year-old boy with no spoken language. The nurse responded to the child’s play invitations constructed as dispreferred by her in three different ways. Two of them were about trying to control…
Myślenie dialogiczne. W polu gry o prawdę etyczną
2019
Przedmiotem analiz artykułu jest pojęcie myślenia dialogicznego. Jest ono różne od pojęcia dialogu – literackiej figury, która służy do przekazywania poglądów filozoficznych. Myślenie dialogiczne, jako merytorycznie nowy sposób uprawiania filozofii, pojawia się dopiero w początkach XX wieku. Zrodziło się ono jako sprzeciw wobec redukcyjnych metod nauk przyrodniczych i przeniesienia ich w obszar myśli humanistycznej i antropologicznej. W ten sposób powstał nowy nurt filozoficzny – filozofia dialogu. Rozwijał się w duchu uwag krytycznych kierowanych pod adresem dotychczasowej tradycji filozofii zachodniej. W artykule przedstawione zostały konstytutywne cechy myślenia dialogicznego. Najpierw p…
Open dialogues with good and poor outcomes for psychotic crises: examples from families with violence.
2002
In Open Dialogue the first treatment meeting occurs within 24 hr afer contact and includes the social network of the patient. The aim is to generate dialogue to construct words for the experiences embodied in the patient’s psychotic symptoms. All issues are analyzed and planned with everyone present. A dialogical sequence analysis was conducted comparing good and poor outcomes offirst-episode psychotic patients. In good outcomes, the clients had both interactional and semantic dominance, and the dialogue tookplace in a symbolic language and in a dialogical form. Already at the first meeting, in the good outcome cases, the team responded to the client’s words in a dialogical way, but in the …
Significant Moments in a Couple Therapy Session: Towards the Integration of Different Modalities of Analysis
2020
This chapter presents a couple therapy session from four different research perspectives: The verbal dialogue was analysed with the Dialogical Investigations of Happenings of Change method, the embodied reactions of each participant were analysed by examining the electrodermal activity of each participant, and nonverbal synchrony was observed between the participants. Stimulated Recall Interviews, conducted individually after the session, were used to gain insights on the participants’ thoughts and feelings concerning particular moments in the session. We wished to determine what could be learned from the embodied reactions of the participants in couple therapy, including whether the data o…
Psychosis, Need Adapted treatment, and psychiatrists' agency
2013
Background: In the Need-Adapted approach (NAA) therapy meetings are a deliberate effort to bring all meaningful parties and views to a common discussion prior to decisions; this constitutes a challenge for psychiatrists’ agency. Aims: To describe how psychiatrists see their agency in NAA. Methods: Using videos of co-research interviews, stimulated-recall interviews of 10 interviewees were conducted and transcribed verbatim. The material was analyzed via an adapted dialogical-narrative analytical method. Results: Institutional forces were experienced as having an enormous impact on psychiatrists’ agency, especially in the inpatient setting, reducing professional creativity. In the outpatient…
Individuo y sociedad en la filosofía de Charles Taylor. Una aproximación desde el enfoque hermenéutic
2010
RESUMENEn este artículo expongo la concepción de persona y sociedad en la filosofía de Charles Taylor. Para ello comienzo planteando la pregunta acerca de si es adecuado referirse a Taylor como “comunitarista” o, por el contrario, desde la hermenéutica es más preciso concebir una dimensión “dialógica” del sí mismo. De este modo llegamos a la expresión “individualismo holista” como propuesta a concebir la relación entre persona y sociedad. ya por último incidimos en el reconocimiento de bienes sociales irreductibles como una de las principales ventajas que comporta el enfoque hermenéutico desde el individualismo holista.PALABRAS CLAVE HERMENéUTICA, INDIVIDUALISMO HOLISTA, BIENES SOCIALES IRR…
Increasing responsibility, safety, and trust through a dialogical approach: A case study in couple therapy for psychological abusive behavior
2014
This article reports an analysis of conjoint therapy for psychological intimate partner violence, treated via a dialogical approach. The article reviews current controversies surrounding this treatment modality and its outcome. The dialogical approach is presented as an appropriate method for analyzing and understanding the issue of violence, but it is emphasized that the focus on communication does not involve a return to a systemic perspective on intimate partner violence. Four important dimensions are identified as emerging in conjoint treatment for psychological intimate partner violence, namely responsibility, safety, trust, and the role of the therapists. The Dialogical Investigations…
Client Self-Management: Promoting Self-Help for Parents of Children in Foster-Care
2016
Drawing upon Foucault's concepts of power, this article shows how a course given to parents whose children are in foster-care encourages a particular form of self-management—most notably, that their internal dialogues must be altered so that the parents can view themselves as people in control of their behaviour who are in a position to choose new behaviour. The article is based on a qualitative study conducted in Norway and centres on the support and development of participants in the course. Study results show increased self-confidence and self-respect in the participants, both as individuals and as parents. In addition, significant benefits were stated as finding that they could verbalis…
‘Strong and courageous’ but ‘constantly insecure’: dialogical self theory, intersecting identities, and Christian mixed martial arts
2021
Being a mixed martial arts fighter and a devout Christian seems to present an apparent contradiction that requires identity work to bring these identities into unity. We used Dialogical Self Theory and explored the autobiography of Ron ‘H2O’ Waterman, a professional fighter turned evangelist, to understand how the tensions between the different identities or I-positions were negotiated. We identified two I-positions, ‘Ron the Fighter’ and ‘Ron the Pater Familias’, which related differently to religion, sport, and masculinity. Importantly, the negotiations were not between MMA and faith, but between these two I-positions that served the different needs for self-enhancement and union with som…
Dialogue and Dominance in Couple Therapy for Depression: Exploring Therapists' Responses in Creating Collaborative Moments.
2019
Previous investigations have found specific communication patterns in couples dealing with depression, specifically when depression concurs with conjugal conflicts. The presence of these patterns can reflect couples' difficulties in engaging in collaborative communication during their sessions, posing a real challenge for therapists. This exploratory study uses a dialogical approach to examine issues of dominance and type of dialogue in two couples who differed in terms of their levels of dyadic adjustment. The therapists' reactions were explored in order to detect the kinds of responses that were most effective at engendering a collaborative attitude in therapy sessions. The method used to…
