  • Tabletop Role-Playing Games as Drama Therapy in the Wild

    Open AccessJ G Snodgra, Seth I Sagstetter et al.ARTICLETranscultural Psychiatry2026

    Clinicians have started to experiment with using tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) as complementary to more traditional psychological treatments or as a standalone form of therapy in a group setting. However, researchers still do not understand well the therapeutic processes and mechanisms through which such forms of play might be helpful to patients. Following insights developed by drama therapists, we anticipated that th…

  • Player-avatar bonds and gaming benefits and risks

    Open AccessJ G Snodgra, Seth I Sagstetter et al.ARTICLECyberpsychology Journal of…2025

    How players relate to their avatars in digital and analog gaming predicts both positive and negative gaming experiences. For example, a perceived discrepancy between one’s actual and avatar self is associated with both gaming benefits and risks. However, such self-discrepancy approaches treat avatars narrowly as self-substitutes that allow players to project idealized identities in a virtual environment. Yet, those approaches have not examined ho…

  • The Benefits of Using Cultural Domain Analysis in Applied Anthropology

    H J Francois Dengah, Alexandra Brewis et al.ARTICLEPracticing Anthropology2024

    Cultural domain analysis (CDA) is a suite of methods and analytical techniques that allow researchers to rapidly and reliably understand the ways in which people conceptualize their world. Consisting of various approaches, including free lists, pile sorts, and related interview techniques, CDA is an effective means of systematically identifying shared knowledge. This article briefly reviews the strengths of this approach, and highlights examples …

  • Deep hanging out, mixed methods toolkit, or something else? Current ethnographic practices in US anthropology

    Open AccessJ G Snodgra, Michael G Lacy et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Anthropological Practice2024Referências: 30

    We use a mix of qualitative and quantitative analyses to examine 1354 survey responses from members of the American Anthropological Association about their practice and teaching of cultural anthropology research methods. Latent profile analysis and an examination of responses to open-ended survey questions reveal distinctive methodological clustering among anthropologists. However, two historical approaches to ethnography remain prominent: deep h…

  • Ethnographic Methods for Identifying Cultural Concepts of Distress

    Open AccessJ G Snodgra, Jeffrey G Snodgrass et al.ARTICLECAM2023Citada por: 4Referências: 91

    We review ethnographic methods that allow researchers to assess distress in a culturally sensitive manner. We begin with an overview of standardized biomedical and psychological approaches to assessing distress cross-culturally. We then focus on literature describing the development of reliable and valid culturally sensitive assessment tools that can serve as complements or alternatives to biomedical categories and diagnostic frameworks. The meth…
