The anomaly, the chronic patient and the play of medical power
In the middle of the twentieth century, the anomaly, the person whose body suffered the effects of an accident and who elicited a compassionate response designed to protect the anomaly from the effects of the accident, disappeared. The ‘disabled,’ the ‘handicapped,’ and the ‘chronic patient’ replaced the anomaly in medical discourse. This change is reflected in specific, technical aspects of medicine ‐ medicine's understanding and treatment of tw…
Power and the profession of obstetrics
The location of pain in childbirth: Natural Childbirth and the Transformation of Obstetrics
In the post‐World War II period obstetrics transformed the nature of its work, partly in response to the challenge of natural childbirth. The transformation is traced by focusing on obstetrics’understanding of pain in childbirth. In reformulating its field of power obstetrics reconstituted its patient‐object to take into consideration the patient's subjectivity which, as a result of the natural childbirth movement, had asserted itself, escaping f…

Course evaluations and pedagogy: Experience with a build‐your‐own course evaluation
Behind every good questionnaire lies a theory. This is just as true for the questionnaires that we routinely use to evaluate courses as it is for our survey instruments. The form course evaluations usually take is one manifestation of a mechanistic pedagogy which pervades institutions of higher education; continued use of conventional evaluation strategies perpetuates a mechanistic pedagogy; and, contrary to most stated reasons for doing course e…
Statistics as Language
I told Professor Smith that his approach to statistics differed greatly from yours. He puts a formula on a board, tells you to get it into your notes, memorize it, and then expects you to know it for the test. I told him that my other professor puts a formula on the board and asks the class whether they understand it or not. If the class says Yes, he erases it and says, Ok, it's in the book. I asked Smith, Why the difference? He didn't answer. . …

Socioeconomic Change and Fertility: A Time-Series Model for the United States
Most previous efforts to model the determinants of fertility have used cross-sectional data and various forms of regression analysis. In this paper a recursive model of fertility in terms ofsocioeconomic change is developed and the parameters of the model are estimated using time-series data
Spectral Analysis and the Study of Social Change
Can rigorous quantitative methods be used to study historically significant processes of social change? If such a possibility exists it must surely involve the statistical analysis of time-series data. For many important social processes, highly aggregated time series are virtually the only quantitative indicators presently available. Fundamentally, any quantitative record of social change is a time series of sorts
A Refined Status Index for Sociometric Data
A new method for calculating a status index from the sociometric structure of a small group is suggested. The limitations of previous indices are discussed, and it is shown how the new index circumvents the problems encountered by them. Research using the new index shows that it does measure social status at least to the extent that a person's score in the upward-positive personal ity direction on a modified Interpersonal Rating Scale indicates s…
