Locating agency with Judith Butler’s theory of performativity
Virtual reality as a pedagogical approach for critical reflection
Epistemic injustice in healthcare professional practice
Architectures of counter remembrance
Discovering clinical phronesis
Phronesis is often described as a ‘practical wisdom’ adapted to the matters of everyday human life. Phronesis enables one to judge what is at stake in a situation and what means are required to bring about a good outcome. In medicine, phronesis tends to be called upon to deal with ethical issues and to offer a critique of clinical practice as a straightforward instrumental application of scientific knowledge. There is, however, a paucity of empir…
When I say … anti‐racist praxis
darthvethar and @eakinsella explore praxis as an approach for medicine to navigate Dr. Angela Davis’ powerful quote: “In a racist society, it is not enough to be non‐racist, we must be anti‐racist”
Decolonizing trauma studies
The operationalization of PTSD in describing and treating refugees is inadequate. • Applying HT theory & practice necessitates critical consciousness and the absence of neutrality. • Testimonial injustice in refugee claims functions to perpetuate epistemic trauma. • Frame narrative silences as purposeful, political components of intergenerational memory. • Honouring silences is just as important as breaking them
Professional practice placement as a unique challenge for students with disabilities in health and human service educational programmes
Students with disabilities face barriers to full participation in Health and Human Service (HHS) programmes. Few studies have focused on students’ experiences in practice placements, an aspect of HHS programmes which yield unique barriers. This study aimed to understand the barriers that disabled students in HHS programmes experience during practice placements and their perspective of how to better support and accommodate them. Disabled students …
Beyond the Corporatization of Death Systems
One less explored area of research concerns the response to the ecological crisis through environmentally sustainable death practices, which we broadly define in this paper as ‘green death practices’. In this paper, interdisciplinary research and scholarship are utilized to critically analyze death practices, and to demonstrate how contemporary Westernized death practices such as embalming, traditional burial, and cremation can have harmful envir…
Embodiment and Professional Education
Getting airtime
Emancipatory knowledge and epistemic reflexivity
Ng et al. argue that the antidote to solution‐ism may be epistemic reflexivity and its emphasis on personal and emancipatory knowledge
Toward an inclusive evidence-based practice model
Evidence-based practice (EBP) and the evidence-based practice model (EBPM) are currently taken for granted as a guide for teaching and learning ‘best practice’ in higher education health care programs. As health care educators and researchers, we argue for enhancement of the model by inclusion of a broader conception of professional knowledge, including ethical care. In this conceptual paper, we draw on hermeneutic inquiry to reflect on theoretic…
Occupational justice in direct-funded attendant services
In direct-funded attendant services, public funds are transferred to service users to recruit, hire, train, and manage support staff. An outcome of activist efforts to deinstitutionalize support services, direct funding models are often said to increase the choice and control that disabled people have in their attendant services and in everyday life. Focusing on one direct funding program in Ontario, Canada, the overarching reflexive ethnographic…
Emergence, multiplicity and connection
Numerous qualitative researchers employ the Deleuzoguattarian construct of rhizome in their work. In this paper, we consider the ethical affordances made possible by the rhizome’s theoretical features to propose rhizo-ethics: an approach to ethical discernment in qualitative inquiry which engages with the Deleuzoguattarian construct of rhizome. Across an exploration of Deleuze & Guattari’s writing, educational scholarship, and further qualitative…
Decolonizing Methodologies in Qualitative Research
Though there is no standard model or practice for what decolonizing research methodology looks like, there are ongoing scholarly conversations about theoretical foundations, principal components, and practical applications. However, as qualitative researchers, we think it is important to provide tangible ways to incorporate decolonial learning into our research methodology and overall practice. In this paper, we draw on theories of decolonization…
Overcoming ageism
Ageism is an age-based form of discrimination that still prevails in our modern society. As other forms of discrimination, older adults may encounter ageist discourses in a variety of contexts, including health care settings. In this paper, we consider critical reflexivity as an approach to challenge ageism within health care contexts. We explore the potential of critical reflexivity to transform the perceptions of older age among students in the…
Everything is down to the minute’
This article presents a key finding from a reflexive ethnographic study of the work disabled people and their support networks do to organize self-managed attendant services: that disabled ‘self-managers’ and their ‘attendant’ employees perform relational work to increase autonomy in the context of austerity-driven systemic constraints. Through a temporal lens informed by feminist and disability studies perspectives, ‘clock time’ was seen to obsc…
It’s like having another job’
This reflexive ethnographic study examines the work disabled people do to ‘self-manage’ attendant services. The data reveal diverse facets of work reported by ‘self-managers’, their support networks and program administrators. The analysis found that self-managers’ work is often represented as ‘something other than work’, if and when it is represented at all. In this paper, disability studies and feminist perspectives on work inform a discussion …
Beyond the realist turn
For patients living with chronic illnesses, self-care has been linked with positive outcomes such as decreased hospitalisation, longer lifespan, and improved quality of life. However, despite calls for more and better self-care interventions, behaviour change trials have repeatedly fallen short on demonstrating effectiveness. The literature on heart failure (HF) stands as a case in point, and a growing body ofHFstudies advocate realist approaches…
Assessment of Caregiving Constructs
Toward Epistemic Justice
The dominance of medicalized “psy” discourses in the West has marginalized alternative perspectives and analyses of madness, resulting in the under-inclusion (or exclusion) from mainstream discourse of the firsthand experiences and perspectives of those who identify as Mad. We argue that this marginalization of firsthand knowledge(s) demands closer critical scrutiny, particularly through the use of critical reflexivity. This paper draws on Fricke…
Cross-sector Service Provision in Health and Social Care
Findings aligned closely with the work done by Sloper and raise red flags related to reinventing what is already known. Future researchers should look to explore novel areas rather than looking into areas that have been explored at length. Evaluations of out-comes related to cross-sector service provision are still needed before any claims about effectiveness can be made
Collaboration and entanglement
Picture This . . . Safety, Dignity, and Voice—Ethical Research With Children
While engaged in a research project involving the use of visual methods with children, the authors discovered that there are many ethical considerations beyond what could have been predicted at the outset. Some of these considerations are important with respect to research with children in general, while others arise more particularly when using visual methods. Framed around the two broad categories of procedural ethics and ethics in practice, fi…

Occupational identity
Occupational identity has been conceptualized with the individual at the core of the construct and assuming that autonomy and free choice are universally applicable constructs. While occupational therapists acknowledge social and cultural dimensions of identity formation and occupational scientists have advocated greater inclusion of socio‐cultural perspectives in theory generation, the relevance of these constructs has yet to be examined. This a…

Embodied Reflection and the Epistemology of Reflective Practice
Donald Schön's theory of reflective practice has been extensively referred to and has had enormous impact in education and related fields. Nonetheless, there continues to be tremendous conceptual and practical confusion surrounding interpretations of reflective practice and philosophical assumptions underlying the theory. In this paper, I argue that one of the original contributions of reflective practice is the theory's attention to an embodied …

Occupation and Identity
Occupational identity is an emerging construct in occupational science. To date, little research has been conducted that explores occupational identity in childhood, particularly with children with disabilities. This study undertakes research on this topic using a socio-cultural perspective. The research considers two main questions: “How is occupation implicated in the shaping of identity for children with disabilities?” and “How might a socio-c…

Phenomenology and the Study of Human Occupation
Human occupation is the central construct of concern for occupational scientists, yet questions of how it should best be studied are only beginning to be debated in the literature. This article suggests that phenomenology holds promise as a methodological approach for the study of human occupation, and that further discussions about phenomenology in the field of occupational science are warranted. An examination of phenomenology as a methodology …

Constructions of self
Little discussion has occurred in the health profession literature with respect to how the "self" is constructed, despite the imagination and attention it has garnered from philosophers and theorists in various other disciplines. Yet this subject has surprisingly ethical overtones for health professional education and practice. In this paper notions of the self are briefly considered and it is suggested that a narrative and dialogic view of self …
