The ascending prayer to Christ: theodore Stoudite's defence of the Christ-єikwv against ninth century iconoclasm
Get PDFTheodore Stoudite (759-826) was at the centre of a revival of patristic learning which equipped him to apply the weight of the Christian tradition to the Byzantine image controversy of the eighth and ninth centuries. In this recovery of the tradition Theodore discovered how the epistemological and ontological demands of both radical divine transcendence and divine active agency in the creative order are met in the incarnate Christ. He concluded that the liturgical expression of this developed theology requires the presence of the Christ- єikwv. The structure of this thesis reflects the single argument of the three-part ‘Avtρρητικοι κατα єικουομάxwv(c. 816). Antirr I and II describe the content of the 754 and 787 Councils, revealing the causes of the theological impasse which prevented the resolution of the controversy. In Antirr I and II Theodore also establishes the ground for his argument in Antirr III by distancing the eighth century Christ- єikwv from its function in former centuries as symbol, pure narrative painting and relic. Theodore defines its contemporary function as liturgical, devotional and doctrinal in character. Written in response to the 815 Council, Antirr III is Theodore's apology for this Christ- єikwv as a legitimate object of лροσκύvησs-. The argument is established within the parameters of the tradition as Theodore carefully defends the circumscribability of Christ in accordance with Chalcedonian Christology. My analysis of the Antirr, assisted by a reading of his letters, reveals that Theodore understands the Christ- єikwv as playing a key role both in the ascetic struggle to free the mind from λογισμοι (distracting thoughts), and in the practice of θєwρια(contemplation) within the Liturgy. The liturgical, doctrinal and devotional Christ- єikwv has become a revealed and formal means by which the worshipper receives a Dionysian άυαγwγη(spiritual uplifting) to the divine presence

MANOVA modelling of a chiropractic longitudinal study using multiple imputation
Get PDFThe purpose of this report is to present the detailed statistical analysis of a randomised, placebo-controlled trial comparing two different treatment modalities to an intervention of no known benefit for people with acute or subacute thoracic spine pain.
The therapy arms consist of Spinal Manipulative Therapy (SMT) and Graston Technique (GT) and the placebo is a non-functional ultrasound. A placebo group was utilised because at present there are no proven treatments for non-specific thoracic pain. This trial is registered with the Australia and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry. Ethics approval has been granted by Murdoch University Human Research and Ethics Committee, number 2007/274.
The aim of this three arm trial was to test the efficacy of SMT and GT as independent modalities compared to detuned ultrasound for the outcomes of pain and disability. The latter were measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and a modified Oswestry Back Pain Disability Index. The study was conducted at the Murdoch University Chiropractic student clinic in Perth, Australia, and the protocol published in Crothers et al (2008).
In this report, Section 2 provides an initial exploratory analysis of the data, Section 3 outlines the statistical models used in the final analysis, Section 4 defines these models in mathematical terms, Section 5 discusses the management of missing values via multiple imputation and Section 6 presents the results of the statistical modelling and hypothesis tests. The clinical study will be published in full elsewhere
