Being a good boy: Pup Play, Body Image, and the Self for Gay, Bi, Trans, and Queer Men
Puppy play is a kink activity, in which people dress as, take on the role of, and mimic the physical and emotional behaviours of young canines or pups. We explore how the pup identity, depicted in cellphilms by queer men who are part of the pup community, influences men's body image perceptions using multimodal critical discourse analysis. Participants expressed feelings of dissonance, shame, and self-rejection when viewing themselves as humans, …
Blossoming From the Mud: Learnings About Compassion From 2SLGBTQ+ Canadians for Queer Subversion and Socio-Cultural Transformations
Individuals who identify as Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (2SLGBTQ+) frequently encounter discrimination, stigma, harassment, and violence. Despite the prevailing influences of cis-heteronormative narratives, 2SLGBTQ+ individuals often encounter support, love, kindness, acceptance, and compassion in their everyday lives. The aim of the research was to explore how compassion can be a catalyst for societal change. Throu…
Pulling at All Threads: Reflections on Using Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis Within Arts-Based Health Research
Multimodal critical discourse analysis is a dynamic approach to qualitative data analysis that expands critical discourse analysis to include multiple communicative modes-such as images, graphics, video, and sound/music-into the semiotic analysis of ideology and power relations within contemporary forms of communication. We reflect on the potential of multimodal critical discourse analysis to be combined with arts-based health research as an anal…
Wired Sex Assemblages Among Men Who Have Sex with Men: Sexualized Drug Use, Hookup Apps, and HIV Service Provision
Sexualized drug use is a form of sexual practice that resists risk-based discourses (otherwise referred to as "radical sex practices") and is reportedly common among gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM). With the growth of online technologies, the use of hookup apps has also increased. We refer to men's use of drugs, apps, and sex form as "wired sex" that forms what post-structuralist theorists Deleuze and Guattari described …
Widening the Circle of Care: Digital Stories of Community-Based Caregiving in a Mohawk First Nation
Caregiving has various connotations within diverse social and cultural settings. Within First Nations communities, caregiving may be understood as a central practice of reclaiming cultural identity and teachings from colonial systems of healthcare. Our community-based participatory research project explored the experiences, needs, and strengths of caregivers within the Mohawk Nation of Kahnawake in what is currently called Canada. Through a partn…
What’s in a Name? A Phenomenological Exploration of Hypersexuality Narratives
Objective We explored men’s subjective experiences of hypersexuality, including the underlying factors they believed contributed to their sexuality. Methods: We interviewed 32 Canadian men with self-reported concerns related to hypersexuality. Interviews were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis and narrative analysis. Results: Participants’ (hyper)sexual experiences revealed complex histories of desire, life disruptions, and h…

A poem to give voice to struggle and to humanize faces behind the shields erected during the pandemic
Assembling bodies and technologies: A poststructural ethnography of sexualized drug use among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men
The identities and communities of gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM) are undergoing reconfiguration through two technologies: the digital spaces of social networking and hookup apps, and the sexualized use of chemicals such as recreational and illicit drugs, pharmaceuticals, and steroids. These technologies are creating spaces for GBMSM to indulge in excesses and extremes of pleasure, generating what has been described as …
Exploring Gender-Related Experiences of Cancer Survivors Through Creative Arts: A Scoping Review
Negative health consequences of cancer and its treatments are multifaceted. Research suggests numerous psychosocial benefits may be gained by cancer survivors who engage in arts-based practices. To grasp the breadth of this literature, we undertook a scoping review exploring the intersection between arts-based practices, gender, and cancer. Three databases were searched according to the following criteria: (a) participants older than 18 years, (b…
A modified Delphi study on research priorities in cancer, gender and the arts
Men and women diagnosed with cancer may encounter complex changes to gendered roles and expectations within the work environment, families and the community. Creative interventions using the arts could address some of these challenges using person-centred approaches that attend to gender disruptions and negotiations. To identify current research gaps and future priorities in this field, a national expert panel was assembled of seventeen professio…
Situating our selves: Using mixed media to convey experiences of psychosocial cancer research
Background In contrast to the field of art therapy, the use of art-making as a form of reflective or creative practice by social scientists by themselves or for themselves has been limited. In this article, we describe the impetus and outcomes for collective art-making within our group of seven health researchers.Methods As a group, we represent sociology, psychology, nursing, occupational therapy, and kinesiology, as well as interdisciplinary st…
Arts-based research methods with indigenous peoples: An international scoping review
Research with indigenous peoples worldwide carries long histories of exploitation, distorted representation, and theft. New “indigenizing” methodologies centre the production of knowledge around the processes and knowledges of indigenous communities. Creative research methods involving artistic practices—such as photovoice, journaling, digital storytelling, dance, and theatre—may have a place within these new approaches, but their applications ha…
First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Women's Experiences of Cancer Survivorship: Protocol for the National Picture Project
Little is known about First Nations, Inuit, and Métis (FNIM) women's experiences with cancer, including how they relate to cultural and social factors such as geography, history, racism, identity, traditional values/practices, and spirituality. Research into FNIM women's strengths and challenges in relation to cancer is much needed. Our team, in partnership with Saint Elizabeth Health, is documenting the experiences and needs of 60 FNIM cancer su…

Metasynthesis of the Hope Experience of Family Caregivers of Persons With Chronic Illness
The purpose of this metasynthesis was to describe the hope experience of family caregivers of persons with chronic illness. Fourteen studies were included in the metasynthesis.

Several derived themes arose from the metasynthesis, including (a) transitional refocusing from a difficult present to a pos…
