The Six University Consortium Student Mobility Project: Promoting Conflict Resolution In The North American Context, Pauline Tennent, Jessica Senehi, Michael Ross Fowler, Sean Byrne
Peace and Conflict Studies
This article focuses on the North American Conflict Resolution Program - a twenty-first century mobility consortium in which universities in Canada, Mexico, and the United States exchanged students of conflict resolution. Drawing on student perceptions and, in particular, the experiences of the universities of Manitoba and Louisville, the authors discuss the positive outcomes of mobilizing students to study conflict resolution abroad for the students themselves, for faculty members involved, for university and other communities, and for the field of conflict analysis and resolution.
Research/Therapy: A Review Of Adele Clarke’S Situational Analysis: Grounded Theory After The Postmodern Turn, Daniel P. Wulff
Research/Therapy: A Review Of Adele Clarke’S Situational Analysis: Grounded Theory After The Postmodern Turn, Daniel P. Wulff
The Qualitative Report
Situational Analysis presents an iteration of Grounded Theory that incorporates the construction of a series of illustrative maps, conceptualizes a situation as inclusive of what usually has been considered context, and explicitly and systematically includes missing or otherwise silenced data. This review comments on how these attributes of situational analysis can also effectively inform the practice of family therapy. The potential of a research book to inform a clinical practice is an exciting development in advancing interdisciplinary studies and its related applications in the world.

Undergoing Venipuncture In Healthcare Education: The Psycho-Biological Effect On Students, Orly Sarid, Ofra Anson, Dagan Schwartz, Arich Yaari
Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice
Venipuncture training is an integral part of healthcare educational programs. Despite its extensive use, no previous studies have evaluated the psychobiological impact of this procedure among health-care students. Participants were 26 healthy students, practicing venipuncture on each other as part of their curricular activity. Self reported pencil and paper questionnaires aimed at assessing depression, anxiety and mood states were administered before and after venipuncture and saliva sample collection. Anti heat shock protein (Hsp) 70 and cortisol levels in blood and saliva were collected from the participants. A reduction in anxiety, anger and confusion mood states took place after venipuncture.

Unraveling Ethics: Reflections From A Community-Based Participatory Research Project With Youth, Christine A. Walsh, Jennifer Hewson, Michael Shier
The Qualitative Report
There is limited literature describing the ethical dilemmas that arise when conducting community-based participatory research. The following provides a case example of ethical dilemmas that developed during a multi-method community-based participatory action research project with youth in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Several ethical dilemmas emerged during the course of the study related to the community in which the research was being undertaken, the recruitment of participants, and the overall research process. As important are possible harm s that may arise when the researcher is no longer involved. These ethical dilemmas and potential solutions are discussed in relation to social work research …
Conceptualizing From The Inside: Advantages, Complications, And Demands On Insider Positionality, Christina Chavez
Conceptualizing From The Inside: Advantages, Complications, And Demands On Insider Positionality, Christina Chavez
The Qualitative Report
The debate on insider/outsider positionality has raised issues about the methodological advantages and liabilities between the two, yet no clear account exists for what insider scholars can expect when they enter the field. First, I conceptualize how insider positionality can dually benefit and disadvantage the insider. Using a partial review of insider studies, including my study of my multigenerational Mexican American family, I also present a practical discussion on specific insider advantages and complications. In conclusion, I present a new approach to training novice insider scholars that will help them mediate between insider perspective and researcher position, an approach that …

Types Of Knowledge, Forms Of Practice, Margaret Arnd-Caddigan, Richard Pozzuto
The Qualitative Report
This study was designed to explore the way that us e of theory influenced a social worker’s conceptualization of a simulated case. The participant in this case study was a woman employed in child welfare, who holds an MSW. She was chosen because her response in a larger study represented a deviant case. Data analysis included both thematic analysis and an analysis of a written report based on ideas taken from institutional ethnography. The authors use this case example to illustrate the ways that one’s understanding of theory may impact social work practice.

Clinical Educators' Reactions To Ageing, Anne Mandy, Kevin Lucas, Lisa Hodgson
Clinical Educators' Reactions To Ageing, Anne Mandy, Kevin Lucas, Lisa Hodgson
Internet Journal of Allied Health Sciences and Practice
Ageism and negative attitudes towards ageing have been identified within the literature as a cause for concern. Reactions to ageing are known to be strongly positively correlated with attitudes towards older people in general. Moreover, the link between ageist practice and quality of care is also established, but implications for education and training have not been explored. The aim of this study was to investigate the reactions to ageing of clinical and fieldwork educators of undergraduate students. Clinical and field work educators are largely responsible for all the clinical education received by these students and thus have the potential to …
