Canada’s Civil–Military Seminar: An Approach to Narrowing the Civil–Military Gap
The “civil–military gap” is a significant factor that can hinder the success of complex comprehensive approach missions. Perhaps nowhere is this gap more apparent than in the relationship between military and civilian nongovernmental organizations. Interagency education and training have been suggested as ways to diminish this divide. This research describes one Canadian approach to interagency education: the Civil–Military Seminar. Quantitative …
Experiences and Perceptions of Sexual Harassment in the Canadian Forces Combat Arms
Recent studies examining sexual harassment in the military indicate a decrease in reports of harassment, which may be attributed to several factors, including zero-tolerance policies or anti-harassment programs. However, the decrease may also be attributed to fears of losing one's job or of being derogated by colleagues if harassment is reported. This qualitative study of women employed in the Canadian combat arms examined spontaneously shared pe…
Poetry and Prose: Telling the Stories of Formerly Homeless Mentally Ill People
This article discusses some of the possible advantages of a poetic representation of social experience through a selection of four poems based on the words and organized by the salience and time sequence "logic" of participants in a study of formerly homeless mentally ill men and women who are currently housed. The initial report was a qualitative evaluation of the perceptions of this sample of formerly homeless mentally ill people of the benefit…
Alpha Bias and Beta Bias in Research on Labour and Love: The Case of Enhancement versus Scarcity
In this article I analyse two research traditions in feminist psychology and apply them to the work/family literature. The similarities tradition (`beta bias') emphasizes how women and men are alike in order to promote the equality and integration of women into existing male-dominated structures. The differences tradition (`alpha bias') emphasizes women's distinct experiences in male-dominated structures in order to bring about more fundamental c…
Ethnocentrism as a Form of Intuition in Psychology
Ethnocentrism is conceptualized as a basic Kantian form of intuition that plays aknowledge-producing role. Although all cultures have developed their particular forms of intuition, the focus of this analysis is on Western ethnocentrism, which is discussed in four psychological manifestations. The most explicit expression of Western ethnocentrism in academia is scientific racism, which has been an important research program in the history of the s…

Promises and Dilemmas of Critical Psychology
Norm, factuality, and power in multiculturalism
Norm, factuality, and power in multiculturalism
Fowers and Richardson (June 1996) offered a comprehensive analysis of the logic underlying multicultural thought. Most laudable is their aim of confronting the reader with arguments for multiculturalism, while simultaneously uncovering some of its paradoxes, such as its embeddedness in the criticized Western tradition. Because of the good intentions of the authors, it is especially important to address some of the problems and inconsistencies in …
