I should like to thank Andy Gibbs and the School of Community Health at Napier University. Without the School's financial support this study would not have been possible. I would also like to thank my colleagues in the mental health team and in the School for their patience and encouragement. Thanks are due to the Association for Professionals in Services for Adolescents (APSA) who paid for my travelling expenses during the data collection. I am indebted to the NHS services where my data was collected for their co-operation. My deepest gratitude goes to the young people, their parents and the unit staff who shared their lives and stories with me. I am most indebted to my supervisors Dr Maureen Macmillan and Dr David Lyall for their unfailing encouragement, advice and kindness. Throughout my studies, they have given their time generously and their academic expertise has been a source of inspiration to me. Several people have shared their time and competence to proof read and comment on parts of the manuscript: Willis Pickard, Martin Gaughan, Morgan Mathers, Neville Singh, Norrie Brown and Allison Alexander. Norrie Brown also assisted me in the completion of graphics. I am most grateful to them all. Special mention must be made of David and Helen Peacock. They offered me a substitute home when mine became temporarily uninhabitable during the last year of writing, and David ensured that my computer remained in good working order throughout the study. Finally, I want to thank my family in France for their constant encouragement and support, and my friends in Britain for their understanding and companionship. 11 ABSTRACT Serious mental health problems among young people are on the increase in Western countries. Involving young people in their mental health care, and working in partnership with them during the treatment process, is a primary concern of all mental health services; their parents have also been promised a place in the health care team. Research into the process and outcomes of hospitalisation of young people in specialist mental health units is complex and therefore limited. Qualitative investigations into the experience of young people as users of these services are few. Making use of ethnographic methods, this study explored young people and their carers' (both parents and staft) experience regarding treatment and participation in decision-making in four Scottish adolescent inpatient or day-care mental health units. The findings suggest that the young people (n = 18) valued the personalised relationships they developed with the staff and their peers and that if these relationships were empowering, they facilitated both treatment and participation in treatment. However, the findings also show that the parents (n = 16) and staff members (n = 21) were sometimes disempowered and that this impaired the overall participative nature of the units. The unit culture was an important contributor to the effectiveness of young people and parent involvement. Making use of concepts from the neighbouring academic field of pastoral theology to interpret the findings, the study concludes with a conceptual framework of what is required for a unit to be more participative. This theoretical framework adds significant elements to the existing knowledge regarding participation in adolescent mental health units. It places relationships of justice and care between all stakeholders at the core of successful participation, hereby drawing attention to the importance of humanistic and ethical considerations in user and carer involvement. iii LIST OF CONTENTS TITLE DECLARATION ............................................................................................................. i ACKN"OWLEDGEMENTS ........................................................................................... ii ABSTRACT .................................................................................................................... iii LIST OF CONTENTS ................................................................................................... iv LIST OF TABLES ....................................................................................................... xiii LIST OF FIGURES AND DIAGRAMS .................................................................... xiv CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION ............................................................................... 1 CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE REVIEW ................................................................... 5 Introduction ..................................................................................................................... 5 1.

Master of Arts (History), August 2011, 120 pp., bibliography, 138 titles. Following the failed Jacobite Rebellion of 1745-46 many Highlanders fought for the British Army in the Seven Years War and American Revolutionary War. Although these soldiers were primarily motivated by economic considerations, their experiences were romanticized after Waterloo and helped to create a new, unified Scottish martial identity. This militaristic narrative, reinforced throughout the nineteenth century, explains why Scots fought and died in disproportionately large numbers during the First World War.

Abstract 119 Brigade, 40th Division, had an unusual origin as a ‘left-over’ brigade of the Welsh Army Corps and was the only completely bantam formation outside 35th Division. This study investigates the formation’s national identity and demonstrates that it was indeed strongly ‘Welsh’ in more than name until 1918. New data on the social background of men and officers is added to that generated by earlier studies. The examination of the brigade’s actions on the Western Front challenges the widely held belief that there was an inherent problem with this and other bantam formations. The original make-up of the brigade is compared with its later forms when new and less efficient units were introduced.

  • 2 Capturing Gradience, Continuous Change, and Quasi-Regularity in Sound, Word, Phrase, and Meaning
    Trim size: 170mm x 244mm MacWhinney c02.tex V1 - 08/18/2014 12:43 A.M. Page 53 2 Capturing Gradience, Continuous Change, and Quasi-Regularity in Sound, Word, Phrase, and Meaning JAMES L. MCCLELLAND 1. Visions of Language One vision of the nature of language holds that a language consists of a set of symbolic unit types, and a set of units of each type, together with a set of grammatical princi- ples that constrain how these units can be used to compose other units, and a system of rules that project structured arrangements of such units onto other structured arrange- ments of units (for example, from syntactic to semantic structure). An alternative vision of the nature of language holds that it is often useful to characterize language as if the above statements were true, but only as a way of approximately notating or summa- rizing aspects of language. In reality, according to this alternative vision, approximate conformity to structured systems of symbolic units and rules arises historically, devel- opmentally, and in the moment, from the processes that operate as users communicate with each other using sound or gesture as their medium of communication. These acts of communication leave residues that can be thought of as storing knowledge in the form of the continuous-valued parameters of a complex dynamical system (i.e. a system characterized by continuous, stochastic, and non-linear differential equations). Greatly influenced by the work of Joan Bybee (1985, 2001) and others who have pointed outsome of its advantages, I am a disciple of this alternative vision (Bybee and McClelland, 2005; McClelland and Bybee, 2007).
