Clancy, Annette. "The organisation of disappointment." Thesis, University of Bath, 2012. https://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.558882.

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to explore the emotion of disappointment in organisations and to develop a new line of theorising inspired by psychodynamic theory. The current literature casts disappointment as a negative emotion undermining morale, depressing expectations and justifying inaction and inertia. This only captures part of the complexity of disappointment and leaves unexplored both its impact on the organisation and its potential creativity. The study presents a theoretical framework derived from research that depicts disappointment as unfolding in three positions; I am disappointing, I

Abstract:
The present thesis examines one of the non–standard preferences, the theory of disappointment aversion (DA) from Gul (1991), within an asset allocation problem. Related to the area of decision–making under risk, it sheds light on: (i) at the global level, how the risk exposure reduces quantitatively in the presence of disappointment aversion; (ii) given the empirical data, what are the plausible levels of disappointment aversion around different financial markets; and (iii) how disappointment aversion interacts with both inherent risk attitudes (i.e., risk aversion, subjective probability weig

Abstract:
Romantic Descent investigates disappointment as a minor, or non-cathartic, critical and aesthetic category in Romantic poetry and prose. Major aesthetic categories, long a focus of Romantic scholarship, have been understood to affirm individual self-cultivation and communal praxes of meaningful progress. However, recent work on affect has theorized alternative models for embodiment and relationality that have allowed new, radical and material, approaches to aesthetic phenomena. My dissertation critically intervenes in these developments by reconsidering Romanticism through its experimentation

Usually we associate personal success with pleasure and happiness, rather than anything depressing or disappointing.

I had put all my energies into my studies for the degree but things felt quite flat afterwards.

Children in modernist literature have been largely ignored in critical study; an odd oversight, since children in Victorian and contemporary literature have been sources of rich material for literary critics. In novels published from 1930 until 1934, Wyndham Lewis, Virginia Woolf, and Evelyn Waugh address the relationships between children/childhood and nostalgia in The Apes of God (Lewis), The Waves (Woolf), and A Handful of Dust (Waugh). Their complicated and often conflicting depictions of childhood and desire for the past reveal children's overlooked importance in British modernism, as wel

Based on a review of literature, it was hypothesized that parental use of shame would positively predict aggression in children, whereas parental use of disappointment would not be significantly

Existing data do show that women who have been raped rarely report assaults to police. This has been attributed by researchers to a range of reasons, both personal and systemic, including the influence of stereotypes and myths about rape on victims’/survivors’ decision-making.

Damages for distress and disappointment is an award of damages under the common law to compensate a party on breach of a contractual obligation to provide pleasure, enjoyment or relaxation.

Therefore, the Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW) (‘CLA’) applied to limit the claimant’s award of damages.

Abstract:
This MFA thesis, More Stories About Disappointment and TV, is a collection of short stories. I see them as being interconnected, if only in the loosest possible sense.

Some of them are more realistic than others, but they almost always have
