EXPLORING THE LIVES OF GIFTED WOMEN __________ A Doctoral Research Project Presented to The University of Denver Morgridge College of Education __________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Education __________ By: Christine A. Winterbrook April 2017 Advisor: Dr. Norma Hafenstein ©Copyright by Christine A. Winterbrook 2017 All Rights Reserved Author: Christine A. Winterbrook Title: EXPLORING THE LIVES OF GIFTED WOMEN Advisor: Dr. Norma Hafenstein Degree Date: June 2017 Abstract Exploring the Lives of Gifted Women is a narrative collection that shares the lived experience of five diverse gifted women. These women were identified as gifted and talented through a formal psychological evaluation. They were served in gifted programming in elementary and secondary school. This qualitative narrative study revealed the lived personal experience of being a gifted female throughout the lifespan for these five diverse gifted women. The internal gifted characteristics and external influences that affect gifted women’s relationships, social and emotional health, achievement, and overall wellbeing were analyzed. The results of this study also examined the internal and external influences that affect self-efficacy in gifted women. The collection of narratives allowed prominent themes to emerge, such as perfectionism, Imposter Syndrome, and societal pressures that lead to conformity. Keywords: Gifted females, internal barriers, external barriers, self-efficacy, lifespan ii Dedication I dedicate this study to my beautiful daughter, Abby Noel Winterbrook. She is my heart and soul; she constantly inspires me to strive be the best mother, role model, and woman that I can model for her. She has been my greatest supporter and advocate throughout this process. I could not have completed this study without her encouragement and love. She has been source of strength and encouragement during this process while completing this research study. Abby Noel was identified as “gifted” in fifth grade, but it was not until she was eighteen that I learned of the characteristics of giftedness. The knowledge and understanding of giftedness, gifted characteristics, and overexcitabilities has brought a wealth of knowledge and information on understanding the intensities associated with giftedness as well as the unique characteristics of being a gifted individual. Understanding coping skills to deal with traits of perfectionism and developing a sense of self-awareness of gifted characteristics such as high social justice causes and concerns have been inspirational. I chose to complete a study on gifted women as a tribute to my own gifted young woman. I love you, Abby Noel Winterbrook! iii Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge my community partner, Dr. Joy Navan, who lovingly supported and encouraged my work. She is a tremendous role model, and I aspire to be even a glimpse of the beautiful gifted woman that she is. She is an inspiration to all gifted women. Her wisdom concerning gifted women was been a tremendous reliable and dependable resource during this research project. I would like to acknowledge my cohort members who have been supportive throughout the doctorate degree. I cherish the memories of our cohort. You are all such powerful advocates for gifted education. I am so proud to know each one of you. I would like to thank my professors and advisors, Dr. Paul Michaelec, Dr. Cassie Trousas, and Dr. Kristina Hesbol, who have been a tremendous wealth of support and encouragement during my academic career at the University of Denver, Morgridge College of Education. I would also like to give a special thank you to Dr. Amy Theresa Turino. She was my professor for the gifted education seminar in my master’s degree and has been a tremendous support system during my doctoral research project. I would like to thank Dr. Norma Lu Hafenstein. Dr. Hafenstein’s lecture on gifted education transformed my life and I literally found my calling, meaning, and purpose. She was inspirational in my ability to complete my doctoral research project and because of her support and belief in my abilities; I was able to overcome many obstacles to see one of my lifelong dreams fulfilled through higher education. She has been a tremendous champion in my life and has helped me to transform on many levels personally and professionally. Dr. Hafenstein is an advocate for gifted education and gifted children worldwide. I am honored to call her my mentor and advisor. iv Table of Contents Chapter One: Introducing the Investigation ............................................................ 1 Personal Interest as the Researcher ............................................................. 2 Background of the Problem ........................................................................ 4 Statement of the Problem ............................................................................ 6 Purpose of the Study ................................................................................... 8 Research Questions ..................................................................................... 9 Significance of the Study .......................................................................... 10 Assumptions, Limitations, and Deliminations .......................................... 12 Chapter Summary ..................................................................................... 14 Chapter Two: Literature Review .......................................................................... 16 Search Descriptions .................................................................................. 16 Conceptual and Theoretical Framework ................................................... 17 Narrative Knowing........................................................................ 18 Review of Research .................................................................................. 19 Lifespan Development Stages................................................................... 21 Early Childhood ............................................................................ 21 Middle Childhood ......................................................................... 24 Pre-Adolescense ............................................................................ 25 Adolescense .................................................................................. 26 Young Adult.................................................................................. 28 Adulthood ..................................................................................... 30 Sixty-five and Beyond .................................................................. 32 Themes from the Literature ...................................................................... 33 Relationships ................................................................................. 33 Parental ............................................................................. 34 Teacher .............................................................................. 35 Peer ................................................................................... 37 Self .................................................................................... 38 Societal Pressure ........................................................................... 38 Conformity ........................................................................ 39 Stereotypes ........................................................................ 40 Sexism ................................................................... 40 Racism................................................................... 41 Multiculturalism .................................................... 42 Multicultural Considerations ................................ 44 Underachievement ............................................................ 46 Social and Emotional .................................................................... 47 Dabrowski’s Theory.......................................................... 48 Emotional Overexcitabilities ................................ 50 Sensory Overexcitabilities .................................... 51 Intellectual Overexcitabilities ............................... 51 Psychomotor Overexcitabilities ............................ 52 Imaginational Overexcitabilities ........................... 52 v Conflicts & Barriers ...................................................................... 53 Internal Barriers ...............................................................

    Music and Militarisation during the period of the South African Border War (1966-1989): Perspectives from Paratus Martha Susanna de Jongh Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Professor Stephanus Muller Co-supervisor: Professor Ian van der Waag December 2020 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 29 July 2020 Copyright © 2020 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract In the absence of literature of the kind, this study addresses the role of music in militarising South African society during the time of the South African Border War (1966-1989). The War on the border between Namibia and Angola took place against the backdrop of the Cold War, during which the apartheid South African government believed that it had to protect the last remnants of Western civilization on the African continent against the communist onslaught. Civilians were made aware of this perceived threat through various civilian and military channels, which included the media, education and the private business sector. The involvement of these civilian sectors in the military resulted in the increasing militarisation of South African society through the blurring of boundaries between the civilian and the military.

FIRST WORD The moment in between what you once were, and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place. —Barbara De Angelis, spiritual teacher I am seven. My mom and I are side by side in the back seat of a yellow taxi, making our way up Eleventh Avenue in Manhattan on a dead-cold day in December. We hardly ever take cabs. They’re a luxury for a single parent and part-time actress. But on this afternoon, maybe because Mom has just finished an audition near my school, PS 116 on East Thirty-third Street, or maybe because it’s so freezing we can see our breath, she picks me up.
  • Women, Gender and Identity in Popular Music-Making in Gauteng

    Women, Gender and Identity in Popular Music-Making in Gauteng, 1994 - 2012 by Ceri Moelwyn-Hughes A dissertation submitted for the degree of Master of Music in the Wits School of Arts, Faculty of Humanities, University of the Witwatersrand ABSTRACT Women, Gender and Identity in Popular Music-Making in Gauteng, 1994 - 2012 This thesis offers an ethnographic study of the professional lives of twenty-eight women musicians working in Gauteng and their experiences in popular music-making in post- apartheid South Africa. The study is based primarily on interviews with a spectrum of women working as professional musicians, mostly as performers, but also in varied roles within the music industry. I focus on various aspects of women musicians' personal reports: identify patterns of experience in their formative years; discuss seminal relationships that influence their music-making; and note gender stereotypes, identifying and commenting on their effect on individuals. Feminist, cultural, post-colonial, musicological and ethnomusicological theory informs the empirical research and is used to interrogate meanings of identity, stereotypes about women on stage and strategies of performance that women adopt. The experiences of these twenty-eight women demonstrate that gender both positively and negatively affects their careers. Women are moving into previously male-dominated areas of contemporary music-making in South Africa such as jazz and playing certain instruments, both traditionally considered to be in the ‘male’ domain. However, despite women’s rights being well protected under current legislation, women in South Africa do not access legal recourse available to them in extreme situations of sexual harassment in the music industry.
