Experience sampling in the study of sleep and wakefulness
Full text linkSleep disturbance is a quintessential transdiagnostic process, implicated in the development and maintenance of several mental health problems. Over the past 20 years, there has been a burgeoning interest in the study of sleep and its bidirectional relationship with psychopathology. Sleep inherently lends itself to study using the Experience Sampling Methodology (ESM) given its temporal nature (i.e. sleep occurs each night and has next-day consequences). Therefore, incorporating sleep measurement within ESM protocols facilitates a unique opportunity to examine the interaction between sleep and wakefulness on a micro-scale. In this chapter, the authors present the rationale for including sleep variables in ESM research. The authors also provide an overview of existing studies utilising ESM to examine temporal relationships between sleep and selected mental health difficulties. They then discuss the practical aspects of integrating sleep measures into ESM in terms of methodological design, measurement of sleep variables, equipment choice, assessment schedules and execution of the ESM procedure, informed by recent developments in the field of sleep research. Finally, the authors outline the potential challenges of measuring sleep longitudinally and provide guidance on how these might be overcome in future ESM studies

Conjuring our beings: Stacey Gillian Abe and Immy Mali in conversational partnership
No full textThe series of Conversational Partnerships began in 2017 in African Arts vol. 50, no. 2, with a conversation between two artists: Eria Nsubuga SANE from Uganda and Sikhumbuzo Makandula from South Africa. The format of a “conversational partnership” (Rubin and Rubin 2012: 7) emphasizes the cocreation of meaning by the interviewer and interviewee as coauthors. This enables a move away from the art history format of the interviewer (usually a writer) assuming the role of the sole author and the interviewee (often an artist) having no status as an author despite the fact that her or his practice-led creation of knowledge is foundational to the content of the interview. Stacey Gillian Abe and Immy Mali participated in a joint artists' residency as part of the RAW program at Rhodes University in South Africa from November to December 2017. During this time, they engaged with each other's practice-led work, and they created this conversational partnership at a writing breakaway in the Eastern Cape

Analiza enodejank Gillian Plowman
Full text linkThis diploma paper explores three dramatic texts by Gillian Plowman - Me and My Friend (1990), The Window Cleaner (2006) and The Ox and the Ass. Its main topic is the study of characters featuring in the works and their linguistic and stylistic expression as shown at the levels of register, colloquialisms and slang. In the first part, the history and basic features of the one act play are discussed. In the second part, linguistic and stylistic features of the plays are examined, paying special attention to the differences and similarities between characters and plays. The examination provides a framework for the comparison which is summarized in the concluding part of the paper. The author\u27s main concern is to establish main differences and similarities between stylistic makeup of individual plays and characters and to find out to what extent the playwright has succeeded in adapting seemingly simple plot for the more demanding audiences of the 21 century.Diplomsko delo razčlenjuje tri dramska besedila Gillian Plowman - Me and My Friend (1990), The Window Cleaner (2006) in The Ox and the Ass.
