Translating Social Science Concepts Into Medical Education: A Model And A Curriculum, Patricia P. Rieker, James W. Begun Feb 2014

Translating Social Science Concepts Into Medical Education: A Model And A Curriculum, Patricia P. Rieker, James W. Begun

Sociological Practice

Most serious efforts aimed at linking social and behavioral sciences knowledge tomedical practice have included "models" which integrate social and behavioral scienceconcepts. We argue that such an integration is intellectually problematic due toan important analytic distinction between "social" sciences and "psychological" sciences.If the social explanation of illness is to become useful in medical education, adistinctly social model is necessary for conceptual clarity and for guidance of which isuseful for explicating the link between social science knowledge and medical practiceand for organizing the knowledge for teaching in medical schools.

Are International Private Voluntary Organizations Preaching What They Practice?, G. David Miller Feb 2014

Are International Private Voluntary Organizations Preaching What They Practice?, G. David Miller

Sociological Practice

The concept of community development organizations providing assistance to communitiesin furthering the goals of community participation and self-help is conflictive.Providing institutionalized assistance often fosters dependency rather than advancingparticipation and self-help. The author examines goal statements of twenty leadingAmerican private voluntary organizations (PVOs) carrying out international communitydevelopment. Eighteen of the twenty espouse self-help, yet concentrate more on deliveringassistance than promoting empowerment. Their idea of self-help consists of supportingcommunity level administration of resources rather than advocating actualcommunity control. Most PVOs are donor-driven and transfer that dependency to thecommunities they serve. This raises the question of who is the client of the PVO, …


Community Development As A Therapeutic Force: A Case Study With Measurements, Dorothea C. Leighton, Irving Thomas Stone Feb 2014

Community Development As A Therapeutic Force: A Case Study With Measurements, Dorothea C. Leighton, Irving Thomas Stone

Sociological Practice

A cross-disciplinary study was undertaken to learn what the social sciences had to offer psychiatry in understanding mental illness. The authors hypothesized that human settlements deficient in satisfying basic physical, psychological, and social needs will evidence higher rates of psychiatric disorders than localities where such needs are met more adequately. A case study is presented showing how community development interventions that provided for greater self-esteem and other need satisfaction resulted in a lower rate of mental illness. Methods for measuring mental illness useful for further research are suggested. This piece originally appeared in Sociological Perspectives on Community Health (1974).

Mess Calls From Signal Hill, Newfoundland, Frances L. Stewart Feb 2014

Mess Calls From Signal Hill, Newfoundland, Frances L. Stewart

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Test excavations in the summer of 1984 for a resource inventory of Signal Hill National Historic Park, St. John's, Newfoundland, unearthed 1,954 faunal elements from structures built between 1790 and 1945. These were predominantly military buildings, although some were converted to civilian hospitals. Signalmen and their families have lived on the site also. The site, however, was mainly occupied by a British garrison from 1790 to 1870. The faunal remains from the various structures were analyzed as distinct units, and in this article, those from the buildings constructed and used by the British garrison are emphasized. The majority of the …


The British Gate Of Fort Beauséjour: An Archaeological Reconstruction, Bruce A. Morton Feb 2014

The British Gate Of Fort Beauséjour: An Archaeological Reconstruction, Bruce A. Morton

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Fifteen years after its initial excavation, the reanalysis of field notes, the final report, and the artifact collection, in addition to communication with the site's original excavator, has resulted in a detailed reconstruction of the main gate at Fort Beauséjour, New Brunswick, Canada. Interpretations generated by this recent reconsideration contribute significantly to what is at present only a scant body of data concerning North American fort gates of the mid-18th century.

The Structural Evolution Of Fort Frontenac, W. Bruce Stewart Feb 2014

The Structural Evolution Of Fort Frontenac, W. Bruce Stewart

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Fort Frontenac, located at the eastern end of Lake Ontario, in Kingston, Ontario, is among the earliest European sites in the Great Lakes Basin. The post was established in 1673 by Count Frontenac, then Governor of New France, as a means of intercepting furs destined for the Dutch and, later, the English merchants at Albany, New York. As the result of ongoing archaeological and historical research, a comprehensive structural history of the post has been developed. As the archaeological investigations have been restricted to the northwest bastion of the fort, that area will serve as the focus of the present …


French Occupation Of The Lakes Ontario And Erie Drainage Basins 1650-1760, Donald A. Brown Feb 2014

French Occupation Of The Lakes Ontario And Erie Drainage Basins 1650-1760, Donald A. Brown

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Maps dating to the 17th and 18th centuries and written accounts are used to identify a number of contemporary posts en route from Montreal to Detroit/Pontchartrain which otherwise receive little or no mention in the historical record. Archaeological evidence from the undocumented mid-18th-century Floating Bridge site, near Kingston, Ontario, is interpreted as a possible trader's post/Metis habitation occupied following the destruction of Fort Frontenac and prior to the post-1763 British occupation of the area. Evidence is presented for its use by civilians, who selected the site primarily for its environment rather than as a point of intersection on well-travelled trade …


Acadian Maine In Archaeological Perspective, Alaric Faulkner, Gretchen Faulkner Feb 2014

Acadian Maine In Archaeological Perspective, Alaric Faulkner, Gretchen Faulkner

Northeast Historical Archaeology

Recent excavations at Fort Pentagoet and Saint-Castin's Habitation have shown physical evidence of three separate 17th-century Acadian occupations near the mouth of the Penobscot River in mid-coastal Maine. From 1635 to 1654, Fort Pentagoet defended private commercial interests of Charles d'Aulnay against English enemies and French rivals. From 1670 until its destruction by the Dutch in 1674, the fort served as military headquarters for the administration of all Acadia under governors Grandfontaine and Chambly. During the last quarter of the century, French authority was reestablished with a nearby Indian village at the habitation of Jean Vincent de Saint-Castin. The archaeological …
