Implementation and evaluation of a psychoeducational program for parents recently reunified with their children: a case study
No full textThis dissertation focuses on the process of designing, implementing and evaluating a parenting program for single parents with a history of mental illness who have been separated from their children, within the context of a residence at a human services agency in an urban setting. Maher’s program planning and evaluation framework and a case study approach were used to facilitate the process. Principles of attachment theory informed the curriculum created for the program. This dissertation was conducted with an intention to contribute to the attachment literature and to expand knowledge about the needs of parents with a history of mental illness who have lost custody of their children. Maher’s program planning and evaluation framework consists of four phases: clarification, design, implementation and evaluation. During the Clarification Phase, an assessment of the parents’ needs and the relevant context was conducted. The needs assessment revealed that parents at the residence had significant past histories of trauma and poor parenting that negatively affected their skills as parents. Additionally, it was determined that many parents struggled to connect emotionally with their children and to provide appropriate discipline. A program design was then created based on the needs identified in the Clarification Phase. The program was entitled the Attachment Based Parenting Program and consisted of a psychoeducation group designed to teach parents skills to improve attachment with their children and to provide appropriate discipline. A description of the program and its implementation is further detailed in this dissertation. The program was implemented over the course of 12 weeks in the Fall of 2008 and involved 10 parents. Following the program implementation, an evaluation was conducted. Results of the evaluation revealed that the program provided some value to the participants: (a) parents were able to process their own history; (b) parents were able to better understand ways in which prior traumas affected their ability to connect with their children; and (c) parents learned new skills to improve their connection to their children. Constraints of the dissertation are noted and recommendations are provided for future design and implementation of the program.Psy.DIncludes bibliographical referencesby Veronique Nicole Le

Semi-automatic mapping of pre-census enumeration areas and population sampling frames
No full textEnumeration Areas (EAs) are the operational geographic units for the collection and dissemination of census data and are often used as a national sampling frame for various types of surveys. In many poor or conflict-affected countries, EA demarcations are incomplete, outdated, or missing. Even for countries that are stable and prosperous, creating and updating EAs is one of the most challenging yet essential tasks in the preparation for a national census. Commonly, EAs are created by manually digitising small geographic units on high-resolution satellite imagery or physically walking the boundaries of units, both of which are highly time, cost, and labour intensive. In addition, creating EAs requires considering population and area size within each unit. This is an optimisation problem that can best be solved by a computer. Here, for the first time, we produce a semi-automatic mapping of pre-defined census EAs based on high-resolution gridded population and settlement datasets and using publicly available natural and administrative boundaries. We demonstrate the approach in generating rural EAs for Somalia where such mapping is not existent. In addition, we compare our automated approach against manually digitised EAs created in urban areas of Mogadishu and Hargeysa. Our semi-automatically generated EAs are consistent with standard EAs, including having identifiable boundaries for field teams to follow on the ground, and appropriate sizing and population for coverage by an enumerator. Furthermore, our semi-automated urban EAs have no gaps, in contrast, to manually drawn urban EAs. Our work shows the time, labour and cost-saving value of automated EA delineation and points to the potential for broadly available tools suitable for low-income and data-poor settings but applicable to potentially wider contexts

No full textKieślowski versus Pawlikowski: “The Double Life of Veronique” and “Cold War” as Tales of Bipartite World
No full textNa czym polegało u progu lat 90. „zjawisko Kieślowski”, a na czym dziś, po 28 latach, polega „zjawisko Pawlikowski”? Co łączy te dwie odsłony sukcesu polskiego kina na Zachodzie, a w czym są one od siebie odmienne? O ile Paweł Pawlikowski dokonał w Zimnej wojnie estetyzacji okresu PRL, o tyle Krzysztof Kieślowski pokazał w Podwójnym życiu Weroniki ostatnie chwile tego systemu. Film ten, oglądany dzisiaj, ujawnia wymiar nie tyle metafizyczny, ile kulturowy, i jest ciekawym tekstem artystycznym z geografii mentalnej. Dlatego też tekst Morstin koncentruje się na dwudzielności świata przedstawionego w Podwójnym życiu Weroniki i Zimnej wojnie. Pawlikowski obiera odwrotny kierunek niż czynił to Kieślowski w swych późnych filmach, bo jako twórca Zimnej wojny z Zachodu wraca na Wschód, który jest dla niego niezmiennym źródłem inspiracji. Autorka próbuje zatem opisać dwie twórcze strategie konfrontacji z Zachodem jako przestrzenią mentalną, z którą każdy z reżyserów na swój sposób się mierzy. Poddaje w tym celu interpretacji Podwójne życie Weroniki i Zimną wojnę jako filmy, których bohaterowie po wschodniej, polskiej stronie doświadczają poświęcenia, śmierci i sacrum, zaś po stronie zachodniej – wolności, sukcesu, ale też frustracji, tęsknoty i samotności. W obu filmach muzyka jest przepustką do lepszego świata, środkiem w rytuale przejścia ze wschodu na zachód Europy.What was the “Kieślowski phenomenon” at the beginning of the 1990s, and what is the “Pawlikowski phenomenon” today, 28 years later? What links these two examples of success of Polish cinema in the West, and how are they different from each other? While Paweł Pawlikowski aestheticized the communist period in the Cold War, Krzysztof Kieślowski showed the last moments of this system in The Double Life of Veronique. This film, watched today, reveals a dimension not so much metaphysical as cultural, and is an interesting artistic text in mental geography. That is why Morstin in her text focuses on the bipartite world presented in The Double Life of Veronique and the Cold War. Pawlikowski takes the opposite direction to Kieślowski in his later films, because as the maker of the Cold War, he turns from the West to the East, which for him is an invariable source of inspiration. The author tries to describe two creative strategies of confrontation with the West as a mental space with which both of the film directors deals in their own way. For this purpose, she interprets The Double Life of Veronique and the Cold War as films whose heroes on the Eastern, Polish side experience sacrifice, death and sacrum, while on the Western side – freedom, success, but also frustration, longing and loneliness. In both films, music is a pass to a better world, a kind of means in the ritual of transition from East to West of Europe

No full textThe Story of a Certain Illusion: Theories of Kitsch and “The Double Life of Veronique” by Krzysztof Kieślowski
No full textIn the first part of the article the author presents three theories of kitsch: Hermann Broch’s, Abraham Moles’ and Milan Kundera’s. These form the theoretical basis for the analysis of Krzysztof Kieślowski’s The Double Life of Veronique, which forms the body of the second part of the article. In the analysis Morstin focuses on exaltation, the primacy of the aesthetics, on the so-called religion of beauty and aesthetical lie. In the conclusion the author argues that the analysis of the film allowed her to identify terms that belong to the dictionary of kitsch of the highest order. At the same time, she maintains that the kitsch one is dealing with is not dangerous, as we are able to easily identify and formulate an insightful critique of the phenomenon. This means that our awareness of kitsch is higher than it was in the first half of the 20th century. Nowadays kitsch is no longer lived through. Rather it is used in different styles and art forms that offer both cheap thrills or exalted aesthetic experience such as in the case of Kieślowski’s film.
