PRE-VERBAL TRAUMA, DISSOCIATION AND THE HEALING PROCESS Dorothy Dreier Scotten ABSTRACT This qualitative research study examines some of the ways in which the healing process takes place in adults who have experienced dissociation, and who have most likely been psychologically traumatized before full language development. The impact of early trauma on human cognitive, socio-emotional, and spiritual development are explored within the context of participant narratives in order to develop an understanding of what may be helpful in developing effective teaching strategies for clinical and teacher education. In-depth interviews were conducted with four adult persons who had been diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder. All had histories of infant psychological trauma and all had undergone their own recovery process. Qualitative methodology used included autoethnography, heuristic inquiry, phenomenology and grounded theory. A cross-case analysis of the four study participants yielded themes of recursivity, social change, metaphor and cognitive restructuring. The undergirding of participant healing process was the expression that their healing was a soul-centered activity and was also a cognitive act that helped to break the cycle of their dissociative thinking processes. Participants said that they needed to engage in both activities to become integrated persons. Implications for clinical and teacher training bore witness to these underlying dissociative processes by yielding a teaching technique that would help dissociative 4 persons learn in a more integrated associative way. This method, called Sensate teaching, is based on the application of metaphor wherein both subjective and objective experience are used as an aid to concretize and internalize learning. Issues for further inquiry and exploratory research included considering: 1) the concept of dissociation and its cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural implications; 2) pre- verbal issues, dissociation and the attenuation of a culture of violence in schools and society; 3) the need for an integrated curriculum that brings together the 'heart and head'; and 4), the question of identity and transference for the teacher-trainee —its importance in educational settings. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS PART ONE: INTRODUCTION I.

To this end, I have divided the paper into four parts: Part One, or the Introduction , focuses on introducing the study. This includes a definition of terms, a brief personal statement describing the origins of my interest, the statement of the problem and the research question. I then place the question in context and introduce the methodology and purpose of this study and my own presuppositions or assumptions. Part Two, A Review of the Literature , surveys some of the prominent underlying assumptions and theories that exist in the professional literature. The review explores developmental language

  • Infant Nation: Childhood Innocence and the Politics of Race in Contemporary American Fiction De
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: Infant Nation: Childhood Innocence and the Politics of Race in Contemporary American Fiction Debra T. Werrlein, Doctor of Philosophy, 2004 Dissertation directed by: Professor Linda Kauffman Department of English In fant Nation considers literary representations of childhood as sites where anxieties about race, class and gender inequalities converge. Popular and canonical representations of American childhood often revere it as a condition that precedes history, lack s knowledge, and thus, avoids accountability. I argue that invocations of this depoliticized ideal mask systems of privilege, particularly relating to white middle - class masculinity. My study highlights literature published between 1970 and 1999, a perio d marked by growing concern regarding boundaries of race and nation. With special attention to postcolonial and critical race theories, I argue that the authors here portray the United States as a nation infantilized by its desire to reclaim a mythically innocent past. In untidy formulations of nation that mirror their disjointed narrative styles, the novels interfere with the operation of nostalgia in American memory. They revise the ideal of innocent childhood to model a form of citizenship deeply engaged in acts of historical recuperation. I respond to theories of postmodern literature and cultural studies that emphasize the central role memory plays in shaping our future, presenting an analysis I feel is especially urgent at a time when neo -conservat ive policy -makers subscribe to a Trent Lott -style nostalgia for a mythically innocent pre - Civil Rights era. Chapter One examines Jessica Hagedorn’s Dogeaters (1990). I argue that Hagedorn cedes authentic history to the corrosive powers of assimilationis m and consumerism, invoking multiple stories of history’s loss instead.

  • Piaget, Disney Eo Eduentretenimento
    ISSN: 1984-1655 PIAGET, DISNEY E O EDUENTRETENIMENTO: POR UMA PSICOLOGIA TRANSPESSOAL DAS ORGANIZAÇÕES Tristan Guillermo Torriani1 Resumo A Psicologia Transpessoal das Organizações preocupa-se com o desenvolvi- mento de indivíduos que podem crescer em equilíbrio físico, emocional, intelec- tual e espiritual ao longo de sua vida. Ela compartilha muitas posições de Pi- aget sobre equilíbrio dinâmico, sobre adaptação através da assimilação e aco- modação, sobre autonomia e sobre a necessidade de respeitar o estágio de de- senvolvimento da criança. Também compartilha o interesse de Disney pela lite- ratura infantil e folclore como um caminho para a autodescoberta. Usando teses propostas por R. Steiner, M. P. Hall e os teóricos do Eneagrama, a teoria piage- tiana e as suas distinções técnicas são assimiladas para analisar o fenômeno da influência global da Disney. É dada especial atenção às questões do adultocen- trismo, do etnocentrismo e da apropriação, substituição e banalização comercial multiculturalista das tradições ancestrais. Apesar das melhores intenções de Walt, o eduentretenimento se mostra como uma espada de dois gumes com po- tencial para fazer mais mal do que bem se os cidadãos forem marginalizados a ponto de não serem mais livres para criticar, boicotar ou de resistir ao conteúdo que lhes for imposto pelos grandes conglomerados midiáticos.

Briggs, chair Professor Nancy Scheper-Hughes Professor Nelson Maldonado-Torres Fall 2012 Copyright © by Samuel Bañales 2012 ABSTRACT Decolonizing Being, Knowledge, and Power: Youth Activism in California at the Turn of the 21st Century by Samuel Bañales Doctor of Philosophy in Anthropology University of California at Berkeley Professor Charles L. Briggs, chair By focusing on the politics of age and (de)colonization, this dissertation underscores how the oppression of young people of color is systemic and central to society. Drawing upon decolonial thought, including U.S. Third World women of color, modernity/coloniality, decolonial feminisms, and decolonizing anthropology scholarship, this dissertation is grounded in the activism of youth of color in California at the turn of the 21st century across race, class, gender, sexuality, and age politics. I base my research on two interrelated, sequential youth movements that I argue were decolonizing: the various walkouts organized by Chican@ youth during the 1990s and the subsequent multi-ethnic "No on 21" movement (also known as the "youth movement") in 2000. Through an interdisciplinary activist ethnography, which includes speaking to and conducting interviews with many participants and organizers of these movements, participating in local youth activism in various capacities, and evaluating hundreds of articles—from mainstream media to "alternative" sources, like activist blogs, leftist presses, and high school newspapers—I contend that the youth of color activism that is examined here worked towards ontological, epistemological, and institutional decolonization.

Unfortunately for girls of color in the system, this discretionary charter given to police, probation officers, and especially judges has operated without sufficiently acknowledging and addressing their unique position. Indeed, the dearth of adequate gender/ race intersectional analysis in the research and the stark absence of significant system tools directed at the specific characteristics of and circumstances faced by girls of color have tracked alarming trends such as the rising number of girls in the system and the relatively harsher punishment they receive compared to boys for similar offenses.
