Being able to medicalize disorders in this way, psychiatric medicine operates as an institution of social control through its power to label individuals as deviant and to establish particular bodily states as medical problems. In this dissertation, I apply Foucauldian concepts, theory, and methods to examine how the history of medical discourse on a particular bodily condition has produced truth about what distinguishes the normal from the pathological. Focusing on the case of autism – a modern-day disorder that now permeates the socio-medical landscape – I show how the relationship between psychiatric medicine and autism might be re-envisioned to provide an alternative perspective on how medical knowledge expands to construct a medical problem. Tracing the history of medical practices used on autistic children, I examine medical documents from the time that autism was constructed as a disorder in 1943 to 1987, when a treatment for autism was produced by behavioral psychology. Using Foucault’s concepts of the clinical gaze, discipline, and power/knowledge, I show how two quite different discourses about autism within medicine emerged at different points in time. Moreover, through the application of Foucault’s methods of archaeology and genealogy, I demonstrate how these disciplines determined what could and could not be stated about autism and how power influenced the production of these statements. Key among my findings are how similar disciplinary techniques gain and lose truth value iii depending on the context of their deployment and how disciplinary methods and outcomes privilege power/knowledge over individual and social bodies rather than seeking to understand and benefit the lived, bodily experiences of particular human beings. I conclude by suggesting that the history of medical discourse on autism has led to the development of practices that misrecognize, if not ignore, the actual bodily experiences of autistic individuals, and that a new discourse of acceptance and admiration needs to replace the discourse of normalization. iv DEDICATION For my amazing son Jacob, who is the inspiration for this dissertation. And for Joshua and Aaron, his wonderful brothers. All my love. v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In the process of writing this dissertation, I came to appreciate how many people truly cared about me, my aspirations, and my project. I also realized that it is quite a lot to ask these caring people to give and sacrifice so much so that I could realize my goal to complete my graduate education and to complete my dissertation. These are the giving people who have helped me so much over the past several years to achieve these goals. First and foremost, I want to profoundly thank Dr. Rebecca Erickson for taking me on as her protégé. The undeserved faith and trust in me that she showed through this process of completing this unwieldy project was beyond my expectations. The worth of her direction, from the germ of the idea to the dissertation defense, is incalculable. Whatever positive contributions I have made to the field, or whatever positive contributions I will make in the future, are directly related to her considerate and unselfish guidance not only as I wrote my dissertation, but all throughout my graduate career at Akron. I am indebted to her and again, I thank her. I also want to thank my dissertation committee, Dr. Cheryl Elman, Dr. Clare Stacey, Dr. Brian Castellani, and Dr. Margaret Carol Stevens, for their support. They had to read more pages than they probably expected, and I appreciate the time they put into reading my dissertation. Their thoughtful comments and suggestions helped shape what this dissertation is today and what it might look like as a publication in the future. I can’t thank them enough. vi I found some of the most important data for my research within the Archives of the History of American Psychology at the University of Akron Center for the History of Psychology. I am most sincerely indebted to Lizette Royer, Senior Archives Associate at AHAP, who worked tirelessly to find documents that were needed for my dissertation. Lizette should know that her work and her support contributed immeasurably to the findings of this project. I want to acknowledge the Institute of Health and Social Policy’s Selection Committee of the Barbara J. Stephens Dissertation Award, especially Dr. Richard Stephens and Dr. Peter Leahy. Their kind generosity helped fund the gathering of the enormous amount of data that I needed to produce this dissertation. I want to thank the entire faculty in the Department of Sociology at the University of Akron for their kindness and support. I want to especially thank those faculty members who I have had the pleasure to work with on their projects and in their teaching: Dr. Baffour Takyi, Dr. Rudy Fenwick, and Dr. Mark Tausig. I owe a special word of gratitude to Dr, Kathryn Feltey, who has constantly and consistently encouraged me all throughout graduate school career at the University of Akron. I also want to thank the Administrative Assistants in the Department of Sociology, Tammy Dixon and Christi Terry, as well as computer genius Cindy Steinel, for their patience when I sought their help in guiding me through all the hurdles. Dr. Kristen Marcussen deserves a special thank you for reminding me of my special interest in those who think about and experience the world in extraordinary ways. Kristen has helped me to understand my purpose, and I cannot thank her enough. vii I want to thank those whom I worked for and with at NEOMED, especially Dr. Chris Ritter for his encouraging words throughout my two and a half years there, and who truly helped me get where I am at today. I also want to thank three very special people from both NEOMED and Kent State: Natalie Bonfine, Mary Gallagher, and Kelly MacArthur. Each of them showed kindheartedness toward me that I can only hope to match. I leaned on them big time over the past several years. It is hard to imagine going through graduate school and completing a dissertation without their friendship, thoughtfulness, and support. The drinks and laughs we shared together…I’ll never forget those moments…and those moments, I hope, will continue. My graduate student colleagues in the department at Akron deserve special mention. I want to thank Teresa Sisson for her friendship and encouraging words throughout my graduate career. We shared much together, from commiserating over course work to AKD, to the special events in our lives. Teresa helped me make it through. I also want to thank Richelle Dykstra, Angela Adkins, Jodi Ross, and Liza Grossman for their words of wisdom during my graduate career. There’s no telling where I would be if they had not unselfishly shared their experiences and knowledge with me. Finally, I want to thank Marci Cottingham, Michael Rickles, Jared Rosenberger, Lia Wiley, Monica Oliva, Nicole Rosen, and Mike Steiner for their steadfast friendship and support over these past few years. I owe my colleagues at Hiram College a special thank you. I thank Dr. Elizabeth Piatt for taking me on as part of the sociology department at Hiram. Her door was always open and she let me talk and talk (and talk) about what was happening with my dissertation. I thank Dr. Robin Shura who always knew the right things to say to keep me viii going. And I especially thank Anisi Daniels-Smith who has been a source of support and kindness to me, from advanced data to now. I can’t thank her enough for her friendship. There is no possible way that I could have made it through graduate school without the love of my family. A great big thank you to my mom for helping me in so many unselfish ways so that I could make it to graduation. I want to thank my brother, Chris, who has been a constant and generous source of support and help as I made my way through graduate school. My sister Sue and her husband Paul, thank you for all the help and encouragement. And thanks to my dad who has helped me in difficult times over the course of my graduate career. I could never have reached the point where I am at today without the love and support that each of them has shown me throughout my life. I express my gratitude to Laurie Redmon, who has practically single-handedly taken such great care of the children. Despite a hectic life, she has done a remarkable job at raising three healthy, happy boys. Thank you! And a big thank you to Denise and Gene Redmon, whose help with watching the kids and whose support I wasn’t worthy of, deserves special mention. Finally, I offer a word of appreciation for Ruth Noles, for being there always, for the children.

  • On the Mystery of Human Consciousness
    On the mystery of human consciousness Egon Gál 23 August 2007 Philosophers and natural scientists regularly dismiss consciousness as irrelevant. However, even its critics agree that consciousness is less a problem than a mystery. One way into the mystery is through an understanding of autism. It started with a letter from Michaela Martinková: Dear Egon Gál, Our eldest son, aged almost eight, has Asperger’s Syndrome (AS). It is a diagnosis that falls into the autistic spectrum, but his IQ is very much above average. In an effort to find out how he thinks, I decided that I must find out how we think, and so I read into the cognitive sciences and epistemology. I found what I needed there, although I have an intense feeling that precisely the way of thinking of such people as our son is missing from the mosaic of these sciences. And I think that this missing piece could rearrange the whole mosaic. In the book Philosophy and the Cognitive Sciences, [1] you write, among other things: “Actually the only handicap so far observed in these children (with autism and AS) is that they cannot use human psychology. They cannot postulate intentional states in their own minds and in the minds of other people.” I think that deeper knowledge of autism, and especially of Asperger’s Syndrome as its version found in people with higher IQ in the framework of autism, could be immensely enriching for the cognitive sciences. I am convinced that these people think in an entirely different way from us. [2] Why the present interest in autism? It is generally known that some people whose diagnosis falls under Asperger’s Syndrome, namely people with Asperger’s Syndrome and high-functional autism, show a remarkable combination of highly above-average intelligence and well below-average social ability.

  • Disability in an Age of Environmental Risk by Sarah Gibbons a Thesis
    Disablement, Diversity, Deviation: Disability in an Age of Environmental Risk by Sarah Gibbons A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2016 © Sarah Gibbons 2016 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation brings disability studies and postcolonial studies into dialogue with discourse surrounding risk in the environmental humanities. The central question that it investigates is how critics can reframe and reinterpret existing threat registers to accept and celebrate disability and embodied difference without passively accepting the social policies that produce disabling conditions. It examines the literary and rhetorical strategies of contemporary cultural works that one, promote a disability politics that aims for greater recognition of how our environmental surroundings affect human health and ability, but also two, put forward a disability politics that objects to devaluing disabled bodies by stigmatizing them as unnatural. Some of the major works under discussion in this dissertation include Marie Clements’s Burning Vision (2003), Indra Sinha’s Animal’s People (2007), Gerardine Wurzburg’s Wretches & Jabberers (2010) and Corinne Duyvis’s On the Edge of Gone (2016). The first section of this dissertation focuses on disability, illness, industry, and environmental health to consider how critics can discuss disability and environmental health in conjunction without returning to a medical model in which the term ‘disability’ often designates how closely bodies visibly conform or deviate from definitions of the normal body.

  • The Joy of Autism: Part 2
    However, even autistic individuals who are profoundly disabled eventually gain the ability to communicate effectively, and to learn, and to reason about their behaviour and about effective ways to exercise control over their environment, their unique individual aspects of autism that go beyond the physiology of autism and the source of the profound intrinsic disabilities will come to light. These aspects of autism involve how they think, how they feel, how they express their sensory preferences and aesthetic sensibilities, and how they experience the world around them. Those aspects of individuality must be accorded the same degree of respect and the same validity of meaning as they would be in a non autistic individual rather than be written off, as they all too often are, as the meaningless products of a monolithically bad affliction." Based on these extremes -- the disabling factors and atypical individuality, Phil says, they are more so disabling because society devalues the atypical aspects and fails to accommodate the disabling ones. That my friends, is what we are working towards -- a place where the group we seek to "help," we listen to. We do not get offended when we are corrected by the group. We are the parents. We have a duty to listen because one day, our children may be the same people correcting others tomorrow. In closing, about assumptions, I post the article written by Ann MacDonald a few days ago in the Seattle Post Intelligencer: By ANNE MCDONALD GUEST COLUMNIST Three years ago, a 6-year-old Seattle girl called Ashley, who had severe disabilities, was, at her parents' request, given a medical treatment called "growth attenuation" to prevent her growing.

  • A Memoir of Brain Change and Emotional Awakening by John Elder Robison
    Discussion Guide Switched On: A Memoir of Brain Change and Emotional Awakening By John Elder Robison 1. Robison was diagnosed with Asperger’s at age forty. He claims that his “diagnosis was a huge relief and a source of empowerment” What does he mean? 2. In Chapter 6, Robison tells the story of being the first responder at the scene of a car accident. He is not emotionally affected by the situation. “Before TMS, all I knew was that I was a good guy in a crisis because my logical mind took charge.” He continues, “Even without feeling the expected emotions, I did the right thing… My sense of right and wrong was quite well developed, and I did the best I could for other people. It’s just that my senses and abilities were limited, so I didn’t always do what they expected.” Did you find this surprising? Have you known people whose facial expressions struck you as odd or overly blank? How did it make you feel, and how did you interpret their behavior? 3. Why did Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) appeal to the author? How is the title relevant to the story? 4. In Chapter 14, Robison describes his reaction to his first TMS treatment after leaving the research hospital and driving home in his car listening to music. Describe the significance of this episode. 5. Robison often says that before TMS, he could relate better to machines than to people, yet, he wasn’t void of feelings, and he felt socially isolated. Discuss Robison’s relationships before and after TMS.

  • Praise for Switched On
    Praise for Switched On ‘Astonishing, brave…reads like a medical thriller and keeps you wonder- ing what will happen next…[Robison] takes readers for a ride through the thorny thickets of neuroscience and leaves us wanting more. He is deft at explaining difficult concepts and doesn’t shy from asking hard questions. This is a truly unusual memoir—both poignant and scientifically important.’ Washington Post ‘Robison’s writings are…logical, restrained, lacking in self-pity… Like Awakenings, this book raises deep philosophical problems.’ The Times ‘Fascinating for its insights into Asperger’s and research, this engrossing record will make readers reexamine their preconceptions about this syn- drome and the future of brain manipulation.’ Booklist ‘Like books by Andrew Solomon and Oliver Sacks, Switched On offers an opportunity to consider mental processes through a combination of powerful narrative and informative medical context.’ BookPage ‘A fascinating companion to the previous memoirs by this masterful storyteller.’ Kirkus ‘John Elder Robison is an extraordinary guide, carefully elucidating the cutting-edge science behind this revolutionary new brain therapy, TMS, alongside the compelling story of the impact it has on his relationships, his thinking and emotions, and indeed his very identity. At the heart of Switched On are fundamental questions of who we are, where our identity resides, of difference and disability and free will, that are brought into sharp focus by Robison’s lived experience.’ Graeme Simsion, author of The Rosie Project
