  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: DEPRESSION AND
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: DEPRESSION AND EMOTIONAL DISTRESS IN YOUNG, LOW-INCOME AFRICAN- AMERICAN MEN AND FATHERS Megan E. Fitzgerald, M.S. Directed By: Associate Professor Kevin Roy, Department of Family Science Depression is a debilitating mental illness that in its most serious form, major depression, has affected between 3.6% to 12.7% of men in the United States (Cochran & Rabinowitz, 2000; Jonas, Brody, Roper, & Narrow, 2003; Kessler, McGonagle, Zhao, & Nelson, 1994). It has consistently been found to be twice as prevalent in women as in men, and yet the suicide rate of men is four to five times that of women (Singh, Kochanek, & MacDorman, 1996; World Health Organization, 2005). Despite this, little is known about the experience and expression of the full range of depression in men, and specifically, young, low-income men of color who are fathers. When young fathers suffer from depression, there are enormous consequences for young families, both financial and emotional (Ansseau et al., 2008; Mirowsky & Ross, 2002; Montgomery, Cook, Bartley, & Wadsworth, 1999; Patten et al., 2006; Rehman, Gollan, & Mortimer, 2008; Soares, Macassa, Grossi, & Viitasara, 2008). It is possible that the risk for depression increases when fatherhood includes the challenges of nonresidential parenting and financial stress (Cochran & Rabinowitz, 2002; Roy, 2004). This has implications for their co-parenting relationships, and shapes their identities and roles as parents and providers (Bouma, Ormel, Verhulst, & Oldehinkel, 2008; Kim, Capaldi, & Stoolmiller, 2003). However, fatherhood also brings many opportunities for young men; it is a chance for them to be generative for the first time in their lives and to experience the joys that accompany the challenges of parenthood (Palkovitz, Copes, & Woolfolk, 2001).

    INTERPRETIVE PERFORMANCE TECHNIQUES AND LYRICAL INNOVATIONS ON THE BASS TROMBONE: A STUDY OF RECORDED PERFORMANCES BY GEORGE ROBERTS, “MR. BASS TROMBONE” Jonathan K. Yeager, B.A., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2006 APPROVED: Vern Kagarice, Major Professor Darhyl Ramsey, Minor Professor Tony Baker, Committee Member Graham Phipps, Director of Graduate Studies in the College of Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Yeager, Jonathan K., Interpretive performance techniques and lyrical innovations on the bass trombone: A study of recorded performances by George Roberts, “Mr. Bass Trombone.” Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), December 2006, 82 pp., 18 illustrations, bibliography, 25 titles. Nicknamed “Mr. Bass Trombone” for his role as a prominent, trailblazing recording artist, George Roberts (b. 1928) has often been recognized as redefining the role of the bass trombone in popular music as well as setting new standards for technical refinement and expressive possibilities of the instrument. Through two interviews and a comparison between ten recorded performances by Roberts and corresponding lead sheets, I make observations about Roberts’ performance techniques and illustrate various examples of those techniques. The document includes 35 pp. of interview transcriptions. Copyright 2006 by Jonathan K. Yeager ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank those who assisted in the preparation of this document. Specifically, I would like to thank George Roberts for providing his time and thoughts; Vern Kagarice for his guidance and assistance in securing sources; Matthew Litwaitis for his help in locating resources; Ben van Dijk, Bob Hughes, and Douglas Yeo for providing comments; Keith Pawlak at the University of Arizona, John R.

ABBEY LINCOLN: Thank you. SALLY PLAXSON: I thought we could start right from the beginning and just work our way through which is not terribly original, but I think it's the way we should do it. Let's start with Chicago, but I'd like to even look at something that we haven't talked about much before. Some of the prehistory of your family and background of your parents, and you were born in Chicago, but how far back can you trace the family history?

  • Developing and Delivering a Repertoire for Use in Music Therapy on Placement with Two Singing Groups of People Living with Neurological Conditions, and Their Carers
    Playing Their Song: Developing and delivering a repertoire for use in music therapy on placement with two singing groups of people living with neurological conditions, and their carers. Jenny Gordon 2019 An exegesis presented in partial fulfilment for the degree of Master of Music Therapy Victoria University of Wellington Wellington, New Zealand. Abstract: This research study uses qualitative, action research methodology to investigate the factors impacting how I can choose and deliver repertoire within the context of my music therapy practice on placement with two singing groups of people living with neurological conditions and their partners and carers. Adhering to the characteristics of action research, this study consists of cycles of learning, and focuses on my understanding of the perceptions and perspectives of clients of the service, plus my own responses regarding the repertoire and how it is used during the music therapy, thus attempting to understand people’s preferred repertoire and improve my practice. My clinical practice notes, participatory observations and reflective journals were coded and analysed to develop themes. Following this, inductive meanings were made of what, how and why the particular repertoire was used. There were many insights learned, from the perspective of the researcher (as a student music therapist and beginning researcher), but the most salient seemed, to me, to be that the entire gestalt of the experience shared whilst singing and playing together with the groups was more important than the minutiae of individual factors that go into making up that experience. Keywords: Group singing; Repertoire; Music preferences; Neurologic conditions; Community Music Therapy i 1.
