Quand les savoirs des personnes détenues émergent
Cet article examine la reconnaissance des savoirs d’expérience des personnes détenues dans le cadre du projet de recherche interventionnelle Tabapri, conduit entre décembre 2019 et décembre 2024. Son objectif était de réduire les méfaits liés au tabac au sein des établissements pénitentiaires français. À partir d’une étude qualitative reposant sur des entretiens semi-directifs avec des personnes détenues et des professionnel·le·s, puis des focus …
The (De)normalisation of Smoking Among Apprentices
When it comes to smoking, apprentices are considered a 'vulnerable' population. They have been the subject of targeted approaches based on the assumption of common characteristics. In contrast to most public health studies, that assume homogeneity of vulnerable groups, this article, based on Lahire's 'theory of the plural individual', aims to examine inter- and intra-individual variability in relation to tobacco exposure. It is based on a seconda…
Digital Life Stories of People With Cancer
This article examines the influence that digital life stories (DLS) can have on cancer research, using the PARCA1 project as an example. After describing the theoretical framework of DLS, we present the PARCA1 project. The PARCA1 project was anchored in the French context (Grand Est region) and aimed at producing knowledge on patients' experience of the cancer pathway through DLS. It involved 10 patients chosen to favor heterogeneity in profiles …
Smoking in French prisons
For the past twenty years, researchers have emphasized the importance of producing data on tobacco use among incarcerated people. With a prevalence rate that can reach 97% in some countries, smoking is much more frequent in that population compared to the general population and this constitutes one of the main causes of chronic pathologies and mortality in prisons. In France, more than 80% of inmates use tobacco while the prevalence of smoking is…
Tailored patient therapeutic educational interventions
BACKGROUND: Tailoring therapeutic education consists of adapting the intervention to patients' needs with the expectation that this individualization will improve the results of the intervention. Communication is the basis for any individualization process. To our knowledge, there is no guide or structured advice to help healthcare providers (HCPs) tailor patient education interventions. OBJECTIVES: We used a data-driven qualitative analysis to (…

Participants were recruited in seven rheumatology departments in France. PARTICIPANTS: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis or spondyloarthritis, agreeing to participate in the study with a relative, age at least 18 years. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Two p…

Addressing complexity in population health intervention research
BACKGROUND: Public health interventions are increasingly being recognised as complex and context dependent. Related to this is the need for a systemic and dynamic conception of interventions that raises the question of delineating the scope and contours of interventions in complex systems. This means identifying which elements belong to the intervention (and therefore participate in its effects and can be transferred), which ones belong to the co…

Stakeholders’ perceptions of transferability criteria for health promotion interventions
Our work contributes to a better understanding not only of transferability factors, but also of stakeholders' perceptions of them, which are just as important, because those perceptions themselves are a factor in mobilization of actors, implementation, and transferability
E-Health and Renewed Sociological Approaches to Health and Illness
A vast body of literature on the Internet and healthcare has emerged over the course of the last decade. A quick search on the main bibliographic databases reveals thousands of references on the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs), particularly the Internet, in medicine or healthcare. The peculiarity of this literature is that it blends a range of different disciplines: medicine, sociology, psychology, geography, IT and infor…
Jalons pour une recherche interdisciplinaire en santé et en sciences humaines et sociales
Cet article propose un retour réflexif sur une expérience de séminaire interdisciplinaire, à l’initiative de chercheurs en philosophie et en sociologie, et de médecins chercheurs en santé publique. L’objectif du séminaire était de s’interroger sur les mécanismes à l’œuvre lors de la mise en place et de la réalisation de recherches interdisciplinaires. Il s’agissait d’explorer les modalités concrètes d’articulation entre des recherches en santé et…
Everyday health and the internet
This paper explores the relationship between internet use and individuals' health experience. Adopting a 'mediated health' approach, it presents four cases studies of households using the internet for health information. The study shows that participants use the internet as it offers personalised information in line with individuals' and families' health needs affecting their everyday routines. The internet emerges as an everyday helper linked to…
"Beyond "misunderstanding
Informed Patients and the Internet
This article investigates how individuals' use of the Internet for finding health information may affect the relationship between health professionals and patients. It explores people's rationales for searching for information online, the information selection process and the implications for doctor-patient interactions. Qualitative interviews were conducted by email with 31 health information seekers. Study findings show the importance of the 'e…
Researching the 'Informed Patient
This paper raises the question of the significance of information practices for individuals' management of personal health. In particular, it focuses on the notion of an 'informed patient'. The question of expertise is examined first through an analysis of the nature of information sought, the trust placed in information sources and the challenge to professional authority, and then in the light of the everyday dimension of information seeking tha…
