  • “What About Bob?” an Analysis of Gendered Mental Illness in a Mainstream Film Comedy
    “What About Bob?” An Analysis of Gendered Mental Illness in a Mainstream Film Comedy A Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the College of Graduate Studies of Northeast Ohio Medical University. Anna Plummer M.D. Medical Ethics and Humanities 2020 Thesis Committee: Dr. Julie Aultman (Advisor) Dr. Rachel Bracken Brian Harrell Copyright Anna Plummer 2020 ABSTRACT Mental illness has been a subject of fictional film since the early 20th century and continues to be a popular trope in mainstream movies. Portrayals of affected individuals in movies tend to be inaccurate and largely stigmatizing, negatively influencing public perception of mental illness. Recent research suggests that gender stereotypes and mental illness intersect, such that some mental illnesses are perceived as “masculine” and others as “feminine.” This notion may further stigmatize such disorders in individuals, as well as falsely inflate observed gender disparities in certain mental illnesses. Since gendered mental illness is a newly identified concept, little research has been performed exploring the way stereotypical gendered mental illness is depicted in mainstream film. This paper analyzes the movie What About Bob? to show that comedic film perpetuates stigma surrounding feminine mental illness in men and identifies the need for further study of gendered mental illness in movies to ascertain the effect such depictions have on the observed gender disparities in prevalence of certain mental disorders, as well as offers a proposal for coursework for film and medical students. i ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This paper would not have been possible without Dr. Aultman, whose teaching inspired me to pursue further education in Medical Ethics and Humanities, and whose guidance has been invaluable not only for this project, but also for addressing ethical issues in the clinic.

  • Cults of Personality, Preference Falsification, and the Dictator's
    Cults of personality, preference falsification, and the dictator's dilemma Charles Crabtreex, Holger L. Kerny, and David A. Siegelz Abstract: We provide a novel rational explanation for why cults of personality exist: they solve the dictator's adverse selection problem in assigning subordinates to roles within the regime. Participation in a cult of personality is psychologically costly whenever it involves preference falsification, with the costs varying across individuals. Importantly, low psychological costs of preference falsification are correlated with traits the dictator values, such as unscrupulousness and ruthlessness, which we collectively term disposition-based competence. Under a wide variety of circumstances, this correlation makes participation in cults of personality informative from the dictator's point of view, allowing him to hire loyal and competent subordinates for the most important regime positions. In contrast to earlier formal work, our model implies that dictators can use cults of personality to avoid the loyalty-competence trade-off when promoting subordinates. We thank Quintin Beazer, Jens Grosser, Timur Kuran, Andrew Little, Eddy Malesky, Melanie Manion, Arturas Rozenas, Rory Truex, Nils Weidmann, and participants at the 2017 MPSA Conference and the 2017 ESTA workshop at Konstanz University for their very helpful feedback. x PhD cand., Department of Political Science, University of Michigan. y Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science, Florida State University. z Associate Professor, Department of Political Science, Duke University.

We have listed these crimes in Chapter 1: sadistic torture in sexual assault, evisceration, postmortem slashing and cutting, motiveless fire setting, lust and mutilation murder, and rape (stranger rape, not date or acquaintance rape). Such crimes as check forgery, bank robbery, and kidnapping, in contrast, are usually not appropriate candidates for profiling, nor are “smoking gun” or “dripping knife” 78 05-Holmes(PVC)-45761:Holmes Sample 8/4/2008 7:33 PM Page 79 The Analysis of the Crime Scene 79 murders. In this chapter we focus on those crimes to which the process of profiling is directly applicable. BEYOND THE PHYSICAL EVIDENCE Perhaps one of the most difficult things for investigators to accept is the need to look beyond the physical evidence. Homicide detectives are generally trained to reconstruct a crime based on the physical evidence found at the scene, such as blood spatters, fingerprints, and semen. This kind of evidence is often mistakenly thought to hold the key to the successful resolution of any criminal case. While lecturing in classrooms and across the country on psycho - logical profiling we repeated tell our students that when they begin to profile a case, they should disregard the physical evidence and concen - trate on nonphysical factors. Often times, students and law enforcement officials are reluctant to do so.

Documentary Films about Me and My Work My curriculum vitae (biography) is available here. Follow me on Twitter, Facebook (my page or the book’s), YouTube The Sources of the Malicious Gossip against me The rumour that I had obtained my degree from a diploma mill is maliciously (and libellously) false. It is also very old hat. It is based on Wikipedia, the "encyclopaedia" that anyone can edit and which I nearly sued a few years ago (regarding an unrelated issue). In retaliation, Wikipedians (as members of this cult are known) started to disseminate (anonymously) libellous titbits about me: Read “The Six Sins of Wikipedia” Recently, fans of Barack Obama have joined them in spreading this canard as “revenge” for suggesting that their idol may be a narcissist: Read “Barack Obama: Narcissist or Merely Narcissistic?” (July 2008) And, more recently, the rabid supporters of Donald Trump are perpetuating these lies in an attempt to discredit my analysis of him. My Academic Ph.D. Degree I studied in 1982-3 in ENCINO, California. At that time, there was a university there called "Pacific" (yes, replete with a campus with very real students, faculty, exams, and all the paraphernalia of higher education.) Later, to distinguish itself from other Pacific universities, it added the moniker "Western".

  • Coldness and Compassion: the Abnegation of Desire in the Political Realm
    Coldness and Compassion: The abnegation of desire in the political realm by Tim Charlebois B.Soc.Sc., University of Ottawa, 2015 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Political Science Tim Charlebois, 2017 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Coldness and Compassion: The abnegation of desire in the political realm by Tim Charlebois B.Soc.Sc., University of Ottawa, 2015 Supervisory Committee Dr. Simon Glezos, Department of Political Science Supervisor Dr. Arthur Kroker, Department of Political Science Departmental Member iii Abstract The concept of compassion has recently held a controversial role in political thought. Critics have tied it with the condescension and latent self-interest of pity, while proponents have asserted it as the ethical posture from which to approach the suffering of others. This thesis looks at the role of compassion in the political sphere, arguing that political compassion involves a decentring of oneself as the primary subject of political action, looking instead to forego one’s own desire and to replace it with the desire of another. It pays particular attention to the thought of Hannah Arendt, who excludes this self-sacrificing compassion from the political sphere, due to the importance of speech to political action, and in turn, the importance of muteness to compassion. To Arendt, political speech intends to performatively bring one’s uniqueness into the world, whereas compassion performatively denies this subjectivity and is fundamentally unpolitical.

Hope Rehab was founded in 2013 by Simon Mott and Alon Kumsawad. This workbook is the result of 20 years expeience working in the Substance misuse and the addiction treatment sector. We have brought together the most efective and accessible psychological tools and concepts as a means to addressing addiction and related issues. The introduction includes a brief explanation ‘what is addiction?’ Our Approach is based on ad- diction science and the ‘American Society of Addiction Medicine’ (ASAM) brain disease model. We also use the ‘National Institute on Drug Abuse’ (NIDA) treatment guidelines and UK training standards (DANOS). Hope’s Counselling and group therapy model includes, CBT, Mindfulness, some 12 step techniques, and many other useful psychological concepts such as afrmation and visualization. The program does not just address substance-use issues, we also address the human condition. Many clients self-medicate underlying struggles such as Depression, Anxiety and histories of trau- ma. The program is designed to improve general mental health and enhance all areas of life. Although we prefer not to use the term Luxury, however we are defnitely a 5 a star treatment program which is a diferent kind of luxury.
