Williams, Psy.D., ABPP (RP), CRC Dissertation Director _______________________________________ Eve M. Wolf, Ph.D. Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Abstract This study aims to serve as a deconstruction of the experience of parenting a child with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The increasing number of families with children affected by ASDs has led to many questions about the impact of ASDs on the family unit; however, the voice of parents is sorely missing in the extant research. The history of ASDs and disability in general continues to impact the ways families, society, and professionals treat families affected by ASDs, and particularly the ways they view and value the parent-child relationship. Six mothers of children with ASDs were interviewed about their experience parenting a child on the autism spectrum and their relationship with their child. Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) was used to give voice to the parents‘ collective experiences. Clinical implications and limitations of this study, as well as directions for future research, are discussed. iii Table of Contents CHAPTER 1

  • Seeking Progressive Fit: a Constructivist Grounded Theory Study
    Seeking Progressive Fit: A constructivist grounded theory and autoethnographic study investigating how parents deal with the education of their child with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) over time Jasmine McDonald BA, DipEd, MSpEd (Hons) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the The University of Western Australia Graduate School of Education 2010 Abstract The aim of the study was to develop substantive theory about how West Australian (WA) parents deal with the education of their child with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) over time. Estimated prevalence rates for all forms of ASDs worldwide have risen dramatically over the last 50 years. This has meant that there are an ever increasing number of children with an ASD in Australia who need appropriate educational services to maximize their potential. Despite this increase, there have been relatively few studies undertaken which have investigated how parents deal with the education of their child with an ASD over time. There is a call in the research literature to provide different research methodologies to answer alternative questions in regard to education of an individual with an ASD because of the idiosyncratic nature and progress of the disorder. The preferred source of such information is at the local level where individuals with an ASD, parents and professionals who possess the most authentic knowledge can be found. The study was conceptualized within the social theory of symbolic interactionism and used constructivist grounded theory methods and an innovative use of autoethnographic research methods to develop substantive theory about how WA parents deal with the education of their child with an ASD over time.

Aune Barbara F. Sharf Committee Members, Katherine I. Miller Cynthia Riccio Head of Department, Richard L.

(May 2009) Denise Marie Jodlowski, B.A. University of Iowa; M.A., Wake Forest University Co-Chairs of Advisory Committee: Dr. James Arnt Aune Dr. Barbara F. Sharf Autism awareness has increased in recent years in part because it is marked by confusion and controversy. The confusion and controversy stem from the fact that there are many beliefs about autism but little agreement. In this dissertation I examined the rhetoric produced by three primary groups—professional autism experts, caregivers to children with autism and mainstream media. In particular, I studied how each group explains autism. Explanations are vehicles for persuasion; they advance particular viewpoints about an illness. I conducted a rhetorical analysis of the three discourses produced by these groups, highlighting the most cohesive themes to emerge from the discourse.

  • Developing an Understanding of Health Myths and How They Stick and Spread Through the Vaccines Cause Autism
    HEALTH MYTHOLOGIES: DEVELOPING AN UNDERSTANDING OF HEALTH MYTHS AND HOW THEY STICK AND SPREAD THROUGH THE VACCINES CAUSE AUTISM MYTH by RICHARD MOCARSKI JASON EDWARD BLACK, COMMITTEE CHAIR MEREDITH BAGLEY ANDREW C. BILLINGS DAVID BIRCH KIMBERLY BISSELL A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Communication and Information Sciences in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2014 Copyright Richard Anthony Mocarski 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Health myths are health belief systems which prescribe behaviors thought to be health positive by myth-subscribers which are, according to Western medicine, health negative or neutral. These myths become part of individual, family, and community ethnomedical constructions and can have lasting negative health impacts. This project aims to better understand how health myths become lasting and pervasive through a Foucauldian genealogy of the vaccine cause autism (VCA) myth. Using a variety of critical rhetorical lenses—including mythic analysis, the narrative paradigm, circulation theory, performativity, and collective memory—this project analyzes six cases across three realms. In the realm of popular culture Jenny McCarthy’s brand-system and the narratives of autism in TIME and Parenting Magazines are analyzed; in the realm of medicine the diagnostic history of autism in the DSM and foundational articles and the circulation of peer-reviewed scientific articles that arguably link autism to environmental triggers are analyzed; and in the institutional realm Congressional hearings on VCA and the collective memory of autism crafted by non-profits on both side of the VCA debate are analyzed.
