That’s how the light gets in. ― LEONARD COHEN Our mission is to explore how the dark times in our lives and the lives of our clients can unexpectedly bring experiences of opening and resilience. Perhaps never before in our lives have we faced such an onslaught of awareness of our societal short- comings in fighting racism, sexism, and the exhausting tedium of socially isolated Program Co-Chairs: KELLY EZICKSON AND PHYLLIS CLYMER daily life. How do therapists and clients find the inner strength, resilience, creativity, Hospitality Co-Chairs: TAMARA LUBLINER AND MEREDITH FRANKEL and even playfulness, to bring light into our lives? Activities Co-Chairs: JULIE MITCHELL AND CATHY ROBERTS Open Process Group Co-Chairs: MAUREEN MARTIN AND VICKIE GOODMAN We invite you to explore with us how our relationship with privilege, fear, shame, Secretary: WENDY GRAHAM poverty, racism, and violence impact our ability to step forward, to act, to speak, to CEU Chair: CATHERINE CLEMMER take the risk of changing our story, for our clients and ourselves. “This Little Light” has been sung by many of us in churches, around campfires, or perhaps on the path of a protest march. Both folksong and anthem, it reminds us of the power of song and breath when confronting darkness. The COVID pandemic has opened the world of virtual meetings.

  • THE TRAUMATIC IMPACT of MEDIA HUMILIATION, MISREPRESENTATION and VICTIM-SHAMING on NARRATIVE IDENTITY and WELL-BEING a Dissertat
    THE TRAUMATIC IMPACT OF MEDIA HUMILIATION, MISREPRESENTATION AND VICTIM-SHAMING ON NARRATIVE IDENTITY AND WELL-BEING A dissertation submitted by CHRISTINE MARIE to FIELDING GRADUATE UNIVERSITY In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN PSYCHOLOGY With an Emphasis in Media Psychology This dissertation has been accepted for the faculty of Fielding Graduate University by Committee: Pamela B. Rutledge, PhD, Faculty Reader Daniel R. Sewell, PhD, Faculty Research Specialist Steve K. D. Eichel, PhD, External Examiner TRAUMATIC MEDIA MISREPRESENTATION THE TRAUMATIC IMPACT OF MEDIA HUMILIATION, MISREPRESENTATION AND VICTIM-SHAMING ON NARRATIVE IDENTITY AND WELL-BEING by Christine Marie Abstract In today’s media-saturated world filled with YouTube videos, social media, crime shows, contest shows, and reality TV, there is ample opportunity for average citizens to be humiliated or misrepresented in the media. Although media effects have been studied for decades, in almost every case the research has focused on how the media has affected the consumers of the media. This study, however, is interested in the impact of a negative or false media portrayal on individuals who were the subjects of the media, not the consumers. A mixed- methods phenomenological research approach was used to uncover the lived experience of those who have been humiliated, misrepresented, publicly shamed, or victim-blamed in the media. Quantitatively, 22 individuals answered the Peritraumatic, Dehumanization, Humiliation, Objectification scale, as well as the Centrality of Events scale, both modified to measure humiliation and misrepresentation in the media (MHM). A Pearson’s correlation between these two trauma scales showed a strong significance at the .01 level.

  • 2016 ICSA Annual Conference Online Archived Conference Handbook
    2016 ICSA Annual Conference Online Archived Conference Handbook The 2016 ICSA Annual Conference will took place at the Magnolia Hotel Dallas Park Cities(6070 North Central Expressway, Dallas, TX 75206). Dear Participants, The organizing committee of the annual conference of International Cultic Studies Association (ICSA) welcomes you to Dallas, Texas. We are confident that you will benefit from the program that has been set up for you, and from the beautiful sights and sounds of the city. This year’s conference has been organized in conjunction with Info-Cult/Info-Secte of Montreal. Unlike closed, cultic groups, ICSA is firmly committed to freedom of thought, expression, and religion. In order to counter the closed thinking of cults and other “true believers,” ICSA conferences provide an open arena for people from diverse backgrounds with diverse points of view. Opinions expressed are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views of ICSA’s directors, staff, advisors, or supporters. Former group members dealing with recovery issues should keep these points in mind and, if possible, attend a preconference former- member workshop, which will help them better understand the challenges of an open conference. Conference goals are to: Support those who have suffered as a result of their or a loved one’s experiences in cultic groups. Encourage students and researchers to share their work with others and to deepen their understanding of cultic studies. Offer training to mental health and other helping professionals. Provide information and opportunities for discussion to all who are interested in this field. Encourage respectful dialogue.
