Practitioners and patients talk about chiropractic : a discourse analysis
No full textThis thesis examines discourse within the chiropractic encounter and describes the interests and consequences of different discursive strategies. It is organised into three parts after I have first introduced the background to the study, exploring how our understandings of pain, health, illness and embodiment are co-constructed and what interests or motivations might be participant in those constructions. These understandings are situated within a cultural and historical frame of reference and I consider how constructs are socially and linguistically co-constituted. In the first part I use discourse analysis to examine the analytic themes which emerged in interviews with chiropractors. I describe the employment of rhetorical devices which establish legitimacy as part of the ongoing construction of professional identity. Talk regarding chiropractic and chronic pain is analysed within a critical framework that problematises the situating of patients as disembodied objects. In the second part I again use discourse analysis to examine the lived experience of chronic pain patients attending chiropractic clinics. The use of narratives in the construction of self, identity and meaning is explored, and rhetorical devices analysed. The use of CAM is considered as a possible agentic strategy/attempt to recover the self and enable objectified bodies to become embodied subjects. Finally, in the third part, I stand back from the study and focus on issues of reflexivity in the research, discuss specific implications arising from my analysis and make suggestions for further work.</p

JobPlan --- a new integrated representation and planner for batch job workflow automation
No full textThis dissertation presents a new representation and action logic for integrated planning, scheduling, execution monitoring and sensing. These features were motivated by the problem of computer batch job management but are applicable to any domain entailing these forms of reasoning. The existing planning literature has primarily focussed on providing highly efficient representations and algorithms which address specific aspects of planning and sensing. However no single planning framework currently combines the requisite integrated abilities of managing durative triggered actions in an open world environment. The dissertation's contributions are a multi-purpose planning and sensing representation and an associated partial order action logic to support these features. Plans and beliefs are represented as a workflow state machine governed by a clearly defined dynamics. Time based goals are handled by treating time as a fluent. The implementation and evaluation of a prototype planner ``JobPlan" on key domain scenarios illustrating these features is presented.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Tracey D.

Contingent valuation: what needs to be done?
No full textContingent valuation (CV) has been argued to have theoretical advantages over other approaches for benefit valuation used by health economists. Yet, in reality, the technique appears not to have realised these advantages when applied to health-care issues, such that its influence in decision-making at national levels has been non-existent within the health sector. This is not a result of a lack of methodological work in the area, which has continued to flourish. Rather, it is a result of such activities being undertaken in a rather uncoordinated and unsystematic fashion, leading CV to be akin to a 'ship without a sail'. This paper utilises a systematic review of the CV literature in health to illustrate some important points concerning the conduct of CV studies, before providing a comment on what the remaining policy and research priorities are for the technique, and proposing a guideline for such studies. It is hoped that this will initiate some wider and rigorous debate on the future of the CV technique in order to make it seaworthy, give it direction and provide the right momentum
