Grounded Encounter Therapy: Its Characteristics And Process, L. Alex Swan

Clinical Sociology Review

Grounded Encounter Therapy (GET) is a sociodiagnostic and sociotherapeutic approach for clinicians applying sociological knowledge to problems that are lodged in a social context. It is a process of encounter which allows for the discovery of essential facts and explanations grounded in the social context of the client. It allows for a creative interplay between research, theory, education and practice to produce knowledge and courses of action. It helps clients discover, determine, understand and decide on a plan of action for problem solving and for growth. This article describes the basic philosophy and some of the techniques of GET.

Fieldwork Relationships On An Aids Ward: Verstehen Methodology As A Source Of Data, Roberta Lessor

Clinical Sociology Review

This paper examines researcher/respondent relationships in a fieldwork study of a hospital ward for the care of patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). The nurses' work was the subject of study. Taking the position that verstehen is a precondition of research, and using Mead's argument that one can be an object to oneself, key aspects of the relationship between the researcher and the nurses are rendered problematic. The investigation illuminates institutional constraints, the ideological position of the nurses, and the social psychology of work on the ward. It is argued that substantive elements of the situation may be discovered …

An Intervention Model For Homeless Youth, Martin L. Abbott, Gerald F. Blake

Clinical Sociology Review

Youth homelessness has become a more visible problem in recent years, and is exacerbated by changes in the central city economy, schooling, and the family. This article describes the "Street Youth Employment Program," a program designed by sociological practitioners to intervene into the lives of homeless street youth through a collaborative effort between a socio-medical clink and an urban university. Program elements included (1) Stabilizing the living conditions of homeless youth, (2) Providing immediate part-time employment for participants on subsidized work projects, (3) Ensuring participation by youth in program policy and operation, and (4) Providing education and on-the-job training for …

Roles And Ethics Of The Practicing Criminologist, William E. Thornton Jr., Lydia Voigt

Clinical Sociology Review

Academic criminologists, most trained as social and behavioral scientists, have not, for the most part, considered themselves as viable experts with skills and expertise which can be sold in the market place. Concomitantly, those professions and organizations which rely on professional experts and consultants have generally not considered academic criminologists as suited for their purpose. Part of this problem is derived from the very nature or orientation of graduate education. Doctorate programs concentrate on those skills that criminologists will need for university positions. We argue that the roles of criminologists in applied settings are essentially the same as for criminologists …

Cross Cultural Intervention: The Case Of The Hexed Hair, Jonathan A. Freedman

Clinical Sociology Review

One aspect of my work as Director of Education and Training at Hutchings Psychiatric Center is to consult on cases that are difficult for clinical staff. It is in these situations that my clinical sociological skills are used extensively. I wish to present an unusual case on which I was asked to consult in the Fall of 1986. I present this case with the permission of the client whom we shall call Sophie Koslowski.¹

Analyzing The Shape Of Organizational Adaptability In Response To Environmental Jolts, David W. Britt

Clinical Sociology Review

Examining how organizational systems have responded to external jolts (threats, crises, etc.) is a useful precursor to large-scale organizational development projects. The shape of adaptability is introduced as a sensitizing concept for facilitating such analyses. The suggested elements of shape consist of three critical performance levels ([1] at the time of the jolt; [2] at the lowest point after any fall off in performance; and [3] its recovery level), and three time periods ([1] how long the organization is able to resist a fall off in performance [Resistance]; [2] how long it takes the organization to recover to its original …

The Frank Church Papers : A Summary Guide Including The Papers Of Bethine C. Church And Carl Burke, Ralph W. Hansen, Deborah J. Roberts, Boise State University Library, Special Collections Department

Library Faculty Publications and Presentations

In 1980, when Frank Church lost his bid for a fifth term in the United States Senate, he decided to give his extensive collection of papers to Stanford University, his alma mater. The collection was transferred to Stanford in 1980-1981. Early in 1984, Senator Church reassessed the prospect of having his papers outside of Idaho. Church approached Boise State University about our willingness to be the repository of choice and received a confirmation of interest. Church then wrote the president of Stanford University requesting that institution release his papers to Boise State. Stanford graciously acceded. Before Boise State could house …

Public Use Of Academic Libraries In Virginia, Lucretia Mcculley, Dan Ream

University Libraries Faculty and Staff Publications

Although often thought of as the domain of public libraries, providing access and services to the general public has long been an important, and sometimes controversial, issue for academic libraries. State and national policies have been suggested, but none have yet provided any definitive guidance to academic libraries in Virginia, leaving each institution free to find its own way of dealing with access and services to anyone outside its primary clientele of students, faculty, and staff. As the Association of College and Research Libraries' 1975 Access Policy Guidelines states,

Institutional goals and circumstances are highly variable, making it both unworkable …

80-Archaeobotany Of Sites 11-J-812 (24b2-185) And 11-J-818 (24b2-185e), Burning Star Mine #5, Jackson County, Illinois, William M. Cremin

Reports of Investigations

The Schwartz (11-J-812; 2482-185) and Copeland (11-~-818; 2482-185E) sites are single component early Late Woodland encampments located in the Westfield Extension of Consolidation Coel Company's Burning Star Mine #5 in northeastern Jackson County, Illinois. The Westfield lies within but near the southern terminus of the Mt. Vernon Hill Country of the Southern Till Plains Division and is characterized by mature topography and low relief (Schwegman 1975). Elevation in the study area ranges from approximately 108 m ASL along the Little Muddy River, the principal stream passing through the Westfield, to 120 m ASL on adjacent uplands. The Little Muddy is …

18-Archaeological Investigations At The Walters 1 (20sj144) And Cupp 5 (20sj104) Sites, St. Joseph County, Michigan, William M. Cremin, Dale W. Quattrin

Archaeological Reports

During the 1987 field season, a research team from Western Michigan University conducted Phase II investigations at the Walters 1 and Cupp 5 sites in the Middle St. Joseph River Valley to determine the eligibility of these sites far listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Discovered during a Phase I survey of this area in 1986, these two sites were among 10 of 87 previously unrecorded sites to which ''high priority'' assignments were given (Cremin and Quattrin 1987).

Following intensive walk-over survey of the ''well fitted'' fields in May by an all volunteer group for purposes of precisely …

The Change In Factors Affecting Physician Choice Of Practice Location: A Comparison Of Younger And Older Rural And Metropolitan Physicians, Theodore M. Breu

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

This study uses multiple discriminant analysis to derive the factors that physicians deem important in their decisions about where to locate their medical practices. Older physicians are compared to younger physicians both within rural areas and within metropolitan areas. Three of the top four discriminating variables for the youngest doctors were influence of the preceptorship period, preference of the spouse, and the repayment of a forgiveness loan. For the oldest group of doctors, two of the top three discriminating variables were the opportunity to join a desirable two-person partnership, and the perception of a high medical need in the area.

Pragmatics And Grammar: Motivation And Control, Robert A. Dooley

Work Papers of the Summer Institute of Linguistics, University of North Dakota Session

From the introduction: "Much of what has been done as "pragmatics" has dealt with utterance interpretation, that is, with the influence of context on meaning. Relatively little has been said about the interaction between context and form. As a result, there is much we do not know about how pragmatic phenomena relate to the grammar of a language. The present paper makes three points in this regard: (a) it is not anomalous for there to be pragmatic phenomena encoded in the syntax and controlled by the grammar; (b) it is not anomalous for there to be pragmatic phenomena encoded in …
