Abstract:
The health care system has, in many respects, been developed to oppose suffering. Yet health care’s almost compulsive urge to treat death as the enemy and to battle disease and injury with all available technology unavoidably results in suffering for someone. This paradox and its impact upon the decision-makers in critical care, has attracted some interest overseas, but none to date in Australia. This study sought to understand the interactions between the key stakeholders in end-of-life decision-making in critical care in the interests of developing strategies to ameliorate the avoidable suff

Abstract:
Background: Forensic psychiatry is characterised by compulsory care and long hospital stays, where nurses care for patients with severe mental illness, who often have committed crimes. The main objective is to rehabilitate the patient to once again become a part of society by improving mental health and decreasing the risk of criminal relapse. This is mainly achieved through encounters with the patients. Encountering patients in forensic psychiatry means coming face to face with suffering and the duality of caring, doing what is best for the patient and protecting society. Aim: The purpose of

Abstract:
As computing technology has become a vital part of everyday life, studies have increasingly scrutinized the underlying meaning of computational things. As different devices become interwoven with daily practices and routines, there is a growing interest in understanding not only their functional meaning in computational terms but also their meaning in relation to other non-computation artefacts. This thesis investigates how people relate to artefacts and how their individual values and attitudes affect this relationship.  The analysis is based on four ethnographic studies, which look at the ri

Abstract:
Shame is an emotion that features widely in a range of mental health difficulties. Feelings of shame are frequently elicited in the therapeutic encounter. Undetected shame may cause ruptures in the therapeutic relationship and premature termination of therapy. Despite this, the literature review suggests shame in psychotherapy has been largely under-researched. This study explores how Maltese therapists understand and manage feelings of shame evoked in the therapeutic encounter.

This thesis aims to understand the encounter between the Swedish government’s constructions of immigrated women and the women’s own identifications.

Negotiating boundaries in face-to-face encounter is discovered to encourage inter-subjective becoming and is explored in terms of ethical interaction.

During such difficult situations, officers need to make difficult decisions about using force.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Forskning belyser faktorerna som påverkar patienters önskan att påskynda döden i livets slutskede. Det saknas dock studier som undersöker hur sjuksköterskor, som arbetar med patienter som är obotligt (terminalt) sjuka och önskar dö, betraktar sig själva i mötet med de här patienterna. Syfte: Föreliggande studiens syfte var att belysa hur sjuksköterskor ser på sig själva, i mötet med patienter i livets slutskede som uttrycker en önskan att påskynda sin död. Metod: Studien är en empirisk intervjustudie med en kvalitativ ansats. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med fyra legitime

Abstract:
I examine the beliefs of first generation immigrant students in their lived experience in accessing higher education while in situations of precarious immigration status with an emphasis on the dialogic intercultural possibilities afforded by a journey to and through university studies. I aim to raise awareness about undocumented students' evolving visions of identity and how their personhood interacts with discourses surrounding students' own efforts to widen their participation in higher education (Yosso, 2005). Participants attest that they see themselves, and arguably are, United States ci

This dissertation offers the first systematic historical contextualization and literary analysis of the five saints' lives composed by Philotheos Kokkinos (ca. 1300-1378) for his contemporaries Nikodemos the Younger, Sabas the Younger, Isidore Boucheir, Germanos Maroules, and Gregory Palamas. Notwithstanding Kokkinos' prominent role in the political and ecclesiastical scene of fourteenth-century Byzantium, as well as the size and significance of his hagiographic oeuvre, both the hagiographer and his saints' lives have received surprisingly little scholarly attention.

Mobilité, désir d’accéder à une meilleure qualité de vie, attraction de la campagne s’accélèrent depuis une trentaine d’années au Québec, comme ailleurs en occident. La campagne et les usages que l’on en fait se diversifient et se complexifient, à l’instar des populations qui l’habitent. Dans ce contexte, cette thèse se penche sur l’expérience géographique de la campagne, en tant qu’espace social. Elle met en lumière l’expérience géographique des ruraux, plus particulièrement les modalités de leur rencontre dans divers lieux qui marquent leur quotidien. Le matériel empirique de la thèse consis

Pendant longtemps, le voyage mental dans le temps a été considéré comme unique à l’humain. Selon des auteurs, les animaux ne pourraient pas se projeter dans le passé ou le futur parce qu’ils sont ancrés dans le présent. Néanmoins, pendant les 30 dernières années les chercheurs ont apporté des connaissances considérables sur les capacités des animaux à se souvenir de leur passé et à anticiper leur futur. Même si les opinions ont évolué, le débat sur l’unicité du voyage mental dans le temps est toujours d’actualité. Le but de ma thèse est d’apporter de nouvelles données sur les capacités des ani
