The role of defensive functioning in positive deviance in psychological wellbeing amongst young women living in Soweto, South Africa
This qualitative study explored how mature defence mechanisms support positive deviance in health and wellbeing among young women facing adversity in Soweto, South Africa. Drawing from the Bukhali randomized controlled trial in Soweto, which targets improved health trajectories for young women, this study focused on a group of participants who exhibited positive deviance in the trial by being employed or studying, engaging actively in the trial, …
Objectifying gaze: How attitudes shape occupational choice
Adolescent mental health in sub-Saharan Africa: Crisis? What crisis? Solution? What solution
Addressing adolescent mental health care across sub-Saharan Africa faces numerous challenges, including underfunded public health systems, a shortage of mental health professionals, barriers to access, and pervasive stigma. Untreated adolescents often experience worsening symptoms, academic and social difficulties, physical health risks, and engage in risky behaviours. Early detection and appropriate treatment of common mental health conditions c…
Imagined futures: Occupation as a means of repair following biographical disruption in the lives of refugees
The transitions associated with forced migration create extensive disruption to the daily lives of refugees. Such change affects opportunities, expectations, and identity in ways associated with the concepts of occupational and biographical disruption. Biographical disruption reflects the way an individual’s life path is changed by illness, injury, or social circumstances; and occupational disruption focuses on the impact of change on occupationa…
Keeping busy with purpose’: How meaningful occupation can shape the experience of forced migration
Forced migration creates multiple barriers to everyday life, including individual’s access to dignified and meaningful daily occupations. Without the activities that form family life, self-care, work, leisure, and community participation, individuals can find themselves struggling to fill the hours in their days and feeling they exist on the margins of society. This article reflects the findings of a small-scale phenomenological study exploring t…
Finding purpose through altruism: The potential of ‘doing for others’ during asylum
Refugees are increasingly acknowledged as facing significant occupational injustice, and they experience multiple barriers to finding meaningful occupational opportunities. Occupation has enormous potential for enhancing the post migratory experience, but choice of occupation is important. People strive to move beyond simply ‘keeping busy’ to find occupations of real meaning that meet personal and cultural needs. This paper reports selected findi…
Stereotyped Reactions to Body Build
Written descriptions of physical characteristics and a questionnaire concerning personality traits were used to determine whether or not there is a perceived relationship between body type and personality. Results showed that stereotypes are held and that these largely correspond to Sheldon's original (1942) hypotheses concerning physique and ‘temperament.’
