A Father Disqualified

Peter Smith(피터 스미스) 동국대학교 영상미디어센터 2017 씨네포럼 Vol.0 No.27

로지 케리건(Lodge Kerrigan)의 〈클린, 쉐이븐 Clean, Shaven〉은 정신 분열증 환자가 투옥되고 아내가 사망 후 입양된 딸을 찾으려고 노력한다. 환각과 편집증은 피터를 휩쓸고 그를 주류 사회로부터 멀어지게 만드는 자해와 분노로 가득 찬다. 이 소외는 영화 에서 계속 악화된다. 피터의 어머니는 적대감으로 그를 대우하고 입양 기관은 딸에 대한 정보를 제공하기를 거부하며, 경찰은 그를 두 명의 소녀를 살해 한 것으로 의심한다. 이 일련의 불쾌한 만남을 통해 케리건은 정신분열병이 본질적으로 폭력적이고 사교적이지 않다는 전제를 드러낸다. 케리건은 정신 분열증에 대한 의학적 또는 정신 의학적 관점을 제외하고는 피터의 박해와 폭력적인 사망이 임상적 현실이 아니라 질병의 사회적 구성에서 비롯된 것이라고 규정한다. 케리건은 그러한 잘못된 신념이 가족 관계와 법적 절차 모두에 부정적인 영향을 미친다는 것을 보여주려 하지만 피터의 죽음에 대한 책임은 주류 언론에까지 확장시킨다. 왜냐하면 전통적인 가정에 대한 표현은 정신 분열병 환자가 가족 생활에 참여할 수 없거나 참여해서는 안된다는 것을 암시하기 때문이다. 〈클린, 쉐이번〉에서 행복하고 놀기 좋은 아버지의 이미지는 예측할 수 없는 피터와 크게 대조된다. 이러한 미디어 표현은 정신분열병 환자가 반사회적이라는 고정 관념을 강화함으로써 가족 생활에서 그를 제외시키는 피터의 장애 구성에 기여한다. Lodge Kerrigan’s Clean, Shaven chronicles a schizophrenic man’s attempts to find his daughter who is put up for adoption after his wife dies during his incarceration. Hallucinations and paranoia haunt Peter and lead him into outbursts and acts of self-harm that alienate him from mainstream society. This alienation worsens throughout the film: Peter’s mother treats him with hostility, the adoption agency refuses to offer any information about his daughter, and the police suspect him of murdering two young girls. Through this series of unpleasant encounters, Kerrigan exposes the presupposition that schizophrenics are innately violent and unsociable. To the contrary, Peter finds vindication when Nicole chooses to leave her adopted home to live with him and when the police’s case against him falls apart. Tragically, the lead detective only realizes the tenuousness of his case after he shoots and kills Peter in front of his daughter under the mistaken assumption that he had planned to abuse her. Through the exclusion of the medical or psychiatric perspectives on schizophrenia, Kerrigan establishes that Peter’s persecution and violent death result from the social construction of the disease, rather than its clinical reality. While Kerrigan demonstrates that such false beliefs negatively impact both family relations and legal procedures, he extends the responsibility for Peter’s death to the mainstream media because its representations of traditional families implicitly suggest that schizophrenics cannot or should not participate in family life. Throughout Clean, Shaven, media images of happy, playful fathers sharply contrast with the unpredictable Peter. These media representations contribute to the construction of Peter’s disability, which excludes him from family life by reinforcing the stereotype that schizophrenics are antisocial. Peter’s refusal to accept the limitations that accompany the social construction of schizophrenia necessitates his death by police, the institution responsible for maintaining and reinforcing social order and expectations.

Performance Bounds for MMSE Linear Macrodiversity Combining in Rayleigh Fading, Additive Interference Channels

Smith, Peter J.,Gao, Hongsheng,Clark, Martin V. The Korea Institute of Information and Commucation 2002 Journal of communications and networks Vol.4 No.2

The theoretical performance of MMSE linear microdiversity combining in Rayleigh fading, additive interference channels has already been derived exactly in the literature. In the macrodiversity case the fundamental difference is that any given source may well have different average received powers at the different antennas. This makes an exact analysis more difficult and hence for the macrodiversity case we derive a bound on the mean BER and a semi-analytic upper bound on outage probabilities. Hence we provide bounds on the performance of MMSE linear microdiversity combining in Rayleigh fading with additive noise and any number of interferers with arbitrary powers.

WATER THERAPY IN THE TREATMENT OF DISEASES FROM THE RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE OF ALADURA PENTECOSTAL MOVEMENT

Peter Olusegun Alokan,Timothy Smith Babatunde 한국외국어대학교 아프리카연구소 2019 Asian Journal of African Studies Vol.- No.45

This paper examines how water can be used as therapy for treating heart related diseases in Nigeria. Primarily, it shows how hydrotherapy has been used in the treatment and cure of diseases in the religious experiences of the Yoruba people in African Traditional Religion and especially the Aladura Churches. From the relevant works related to the subject matter, it is observed that before the arrival of western hospital in Nigeria, several diseases had been cured using water. The Yoruba traditionalists especially had devised several methods for curing diseases with the use of water. Some of the strategies are common in the practices of the Aladura in the early twentieth century and have been subsequently modified by contemporary Aladura Pentecostal Churches. The study adopted socio-historical approach to examine how the Aladura Churches have adopted water therapy to cure several ailments and terminal diseases in Nigeria. The experiences of the researchers as Nigerians and and a continuing observation as an insider in the Aladura church informed the research in useful ways. It was observed that early in the history of Nigeria and the Aladura, water plays very significant role in the healing process of the human body. The study therefore, calls the attention of the Christ Apostolic Church as an Aladura Pentecostal prominent with the use of water for divine healing to the 21st century evangelistic and health relevance of water as therapy for healing diseases. It is believed that the missionary and health benefits of hydrotherapy as considered in this study will have a great impact on the health development and sustainability program of the Federal Government of Nigeria.

The Role of Metaphor in Sport Instruction

Peter E. St. Pierre,Mark A. Smith 한국코칭능력개발원 2012 International Journal of Coaching Science Vol.- No.-

Teachers and sport instructors have embraced the use of metaphors as a tool that enhances student performance, but there is little research explaining the reasons why they are used. The purpose of this study was to examine metaphor use by expert golf instructors. Fourteen individuals selected as Top 100 instructors by Golf Magazine in 2000 or 2001 participated in the study. Each instructor recruited a student and was videotaped teaching a lesson. Following the lesson, the student and instructor participated separately in stimulated recall interviews. Results from this study suggest that metaphor use is pervasive in expert golf instruction, and is an important teaching tool for most instructors. The use of metaphors resulted in immediate changes in behavior, and memorable learning. When metaphors were used by these instructors, the students understood them as intended more than ninety percent of the time, and showed observable changes in performance during practice. The findings also provide some empirical evidence supporting Andrew Ortony’s (1975) three theses regarding the role of metaphor in language. Instructors used metaphors to encourage vivid mental images, to make language more efficient, and to express concepts that would be difficult to explain through literal language.

Geographic Disparities in Prostate Cancer Outcomes - Review of International Patterns

Baade, Peter D.,Yu, Xue Qin,Smith, David P.,Dunn, Jeff,Chambers, Suzanne K. Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2015 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.16 No.3

Background: This study reviewed the published evidence as to how prostate cancer outcomes vary across geographical remoteness and area level disadvantage. Materials and Methods: A review of the literature published from January 1998 to January 2014 was undertaken: Medline and CINAHL databases were searched in February to May 2014. The search terms included terms of 'Prostate cancer' and 'prostatic neoplasms' coupled with 'rural health', 'urban health', 'geographic inequalities', 'spatial', 'socioeconomic', 'disadvantage', 'health literacy' or 'health service accessibility'. Outcome specific terms were 'incidence', 'mortality', 'prevalence', 'survival', 'disease progression', 'PSA testing' or 'PSA screening', 'treatment', 'treatment complications' and 'recurrence'. A further search through internet search engines was conducted to identify any additional relevant published reports. Results: 91 papers were included in the review. While patterns were sometimes contrasting, the predominate patterns were for PSA testing to be more common in urban (5 studies out of 6) and affluent areas (2 of 2), higher prostate cancer incidence in urban (12 of 22) and affluent (18 of 20), greater risk of advanced stage prostate cancer in rural (7 of 11) and disadvantaged (8 of 9), higher survival in urban (8 of 13) and affluent (16 of 18), greater access or use of definitive treatment services in urban (6 of 9) and affluent (7 of 7), and higher prostate mortality in rural (10 of 20) and disadvantaged (8 of 16) areas. Conclusions: Future studies may need to utilise a mixed methods approach, in which the quantifiable attributes of the individuals living within areas are measured along with the characteristics of the areas themselves, but importantly include a qualitative examination of the lived experience of people within those areas. These studies should be conducted across a range of international countries using consistent measures and incorporate dialogue between clinicians, epidemiologists, policy advocates and disease control specialists.

A Model for Design of Tailored Working Environment Intervention Programmes for Small Enterprises

Hasle, Peter,Kvorning, Laura V.,Rasmussen, Charlotte D.N.,Smith, Louise H.,Flyvholm, Mari-Ann Occupational Safety and Health Research Institute 2012 Safety and health at work Vol.3 No.3

Objectives: Small enterprises have higher exposure to occupational hazards compared to larger enterprises and further, they have fewer resources to control the risks. In order to improve the working environment, development of efficient measures is therefore a major challenge for regulators and other stakeholders. The aim of this paper is to develop a systematic model for the design of tailored intervention programmes meeting the needs of small enterprises. Methods: An important challenge for the design process is the transfer of knowledge from one context to another. The concept of realist analysis can provide insight into mechanisms by which intervention knowledge can be transferred from one context to another. We use this theoretical approach to develop a design model. Results: The model consist of five steps: 1) Defining occupational health and safety challenges of the target group, 2) selecting methods to improve the working environment, 3) developing theories about mechanisms which motivate the target group, 4) analysing the specific context of the target group for small enterprise programmes including owner-management role, social relations, and the perception of the working environment, and 5) designing the intervention based on the preceding steps. We demonstrate how the design model can be applied in practice by the development of an intervention programme for small enterprises in the construction industry. Conclusion: The model provides a useful tool for a systematic design process. The model makes it transparent for both researchers and practitioners as to how existing knowledge can be used in the design of new intervention programmes.
