Self-regulation through storytelling
Resilience to cope with setbacks has acquired a prominent place within Australia’s school curricula. One core component of resilience is children’s capacity to resolve conflict. Conflict resolution is the ability to regulate emotions, understand your temperament, and solve problems. This article demonstrates how a storytelling book, titled Game On, helps early school children understand their temperament and regulate their feelings. Using qualita…
Did Arcadius legislate on episcopalis audientia? And was that legislation included in the Theodosian Code
It is generally assumed the text of CJ 1,4,7, a law on episcopal adjudication, was issued by Arcadius as part of a larger legislative action on the 27th of July AD 398 at Mnizus. Paul Krüger’s critical edition of Justinian’s Code is primarily responsible for this assumption gaining traction. Through an exploration of the (lacking) manuscript evidence and earlier humanist editions of the Code, notably that of Gregorius Haloander, this article stre…
‘Law is Said in Many Ways’
The Collectio canonum Hibernensis is a collection originating in eighth-century Ireland of just under seventy books of what is generally called canon law. Some manuscripts include a theoretical reflection on the definition of law. Scholars have questioned to what extent early medieval canon law, and specifically this collection, conforms to law in a meaningful sense. Inspired by H. L. A. Hart’s concept of law, seminal in contemporary legal theory…
The perceived impact of weight bias among healthcare providers on the care of individuals with binge-eating disorder or atypical anorexia nervosa
Healthcare Practitioners’ Perceptions of the Barriers to Prescribing or Promoting Exercise in the Treatment of People with Mental Illness
Contemporary healthcare for those experiencing mental illness requires healthcare practitioners (HCPs) to effectively incorporate the prescription of exercise in their treatment, in accordance with clinical guidelines. However, there has been a lack of effective implementation of such recommendations. The purpose of this review was to identify barriers to exercise prescription in the treatment of people diagnosed with mental illness as perceived …
Grounding participatory action research in rural Colombia
Since the new millennium, the issue of financial inclusion of young people has increasingly gained recognition, especially in relation to those living in deprived circumstances. Financial inclusion can be promoted through education that specifically aims for the strengthening of young persons’ financial capabilities. In 2013, a participatory action research project was started in a rural region of Colombia to improve the research capacity of a lo…
Understanding the Process of Family Group Conferencing in Public Mental Health Care
From 2011 until 2013, forty-one family group conferences were organised for clients in a public mental health care (PMHC) setting in the north of the Netherlands. In total, 312 semi-structured interviews were done out of a possible number of 473 Family Group Conferencing (FGC) participants. A multiple case study brought four dynamics to the surface on the process of FGC in PMHC: (i) overcoming resistance, breaking through isolation, sharing shame…
Collecting feedback as a tool to reduce care paralysis
Family group conferencing (FGC) coordinators in public mental healthcare are confronted with clients who have little faith in professionals and organizations, who hold off decisions in their family life, who avoid care and who sometimes behave in a hostile manner. A lack of initiative to deal with their situation is not only reserved for clients – all bystanders, including professionals, can suffer from it. The multiplicity and severity of the cl…
Enabling social support and resilience
Family Group Conferencing (FGC) is a decision-making model where clients with their social network formulate their own plan. There is little experience with FGC in mental health care. We studied the outcomes of 41 conferences in a public mental health setting in the north of the Netherlands. We interviewed 312 respondents out of a total of 473 conference participants. In 33 cases, it was possible to obtain scores from 245 respondents on scales ra…
Examining the Effects of Family Group Conferencing with Randomised Controlled Trials
Scholars in the Netherlands have recently questioned the evidence for the efficacy of Family Group Conferencing (FGC). Their criticism is that the research projects on FGC which have been carried out so far to examine its impact are meaningless, as there are only few studies which incorporated a randomised controlled trial (RCT) design. In this critical commentary, we, however, argue why one can question the rigour of the outcomes of FGC evaluate…
Pathways toward evictions
Breaking through Marginalisation in Public Mental Health Care with Family Group Conferencing
From January 2011 until December 2012, forty Family Group Conferences (FGCs) will be studied in the public mental health care (PMHC) setting in the province of Groningen, the Netherlands. Research should yield an answer to whether FGCs are valuable for clients in PMHC as a means to generate social support, to prevent coercion and to elevate the work of professionals. The present study reports on two case studies in which shame and fear of rejecti…
Researching the Applicability of Family Group Conferencing in Public Mental Health Care
Since the introduction of Family Group Conferences (FGCs) in the Netherlands, there has been a steady growth in conferences being organised each year. Government policy emphasises the importance of empowering families to strengthen their ability to take responsibility for their own well-being. A recently adopted amendment in the Dutch Civil Code reflects this commitment and designates FGC as good practice. However, there is little knowledge on th…
Adult education in the Limpopo province of South Africa
In this article we report and reflect on a study about the problems encountered in the implementation of adult education policies in the Limpopo province of South Africa. We used the model of intergovernmental policy implementation of Van Horn and Van Meter as a theoretical framework. We reflect on this study and link the findings with more recent literature on and experiences with developments in the implementation of adult education policies. T…
Beyond Care Avoidance and Care Paralysis
Care avoidance refers to the condition wherein clients do not seek assistance and do not attend appointments although they are in need of help. Care avoidance is linked to another phenomenon, the inability to help clients with multiple and complex problems by social services and care facilities, in this article identified as care paralysis. The aim of this article is to understand the production and reduction of care avoidance and care paralysis.…
Researching the reintegration of formerly abducted children in northern Uganda through action research
This paper presents experiences and reflections on the use of a participatory research methodology under the difficult conditions of a war situation in northern Uganda. We draw from two complimentary approaches in action research to explain our methodology while doing research on the reintegration of formerly abducted children. First, the experience oriented approach, which emphasizes the need to articulate experience as a basis for learning and …
