L'efficacité d'une intervention par manuel d'auto-traitement basée sur la thérapie d'acceptation et d'engagement appliquée à une population souffrant d'anorexie ou d'anorexie mentale atypique

L’anorexie mentale et l’anorexie mentale atypique sont des problématiques de santé mentale qui affectent une portion non négligeable de la population. Toutefois, encore très peu d’études ont permis de démontrer l’efficacité des traitements pour ces troubles. L’évolution des connaissances dans les modèles explicatifs de l’anorexie oriente vers des processus psychologiques à cibler dans le traitement différents de ceux des thérapies conventionnelles. La présente étude vise à évaluer l’efficacité de la thérapie d’acceptation et d’engagement (ACT) sous forme d’un manuel d’auto-traitement appliqué à une population souffrant d’anorexie mentale ou d’anorexie mentale atypique. Un protocole expérimental à cas unique à niveaux de base multiples a été utilisé. Quatre femmes francophones présentant un de ces deux diagnostics ont reçu le traitement sur une durée de 13 semaines. Les résultats démontrent que les niveaux quotidiens d’actions pour maîtriser le poids et de préoccupations par rapport au poids et à la nourriture ont diminué suite au traitement. Le traitement a aussi permis aux participantes de passer d’un diagnostic de sévérité clinique à un en rémission partielle. La sévérité des symptômes de trouble alimentaire a aussi diminué suite au traitement et la flexibilité de l’image corporelle des participantes a augmenté, et ce de manières cliniquement significatives. Des processus propres à l’intervention ACT sont avancés pour rendre compte des effets observés.

Trouble and autoethnography in assessment genre : a case for postnational design in online internationalized pedagogy

This chapter is interested in the difference between local places with implicit codes and more global spaces with explicit directions, through the case study of the design and conduct of assessment in an online internationalized MBA unit. Online learning is understood to offer new ways of belonging in 'postnational' communities less reliant on locality for their frames of reference. This study reports and analyses firstly a series of troubles which erupted over the international students' desire for more explication of the desired genre for their assessment task. Then it analyses the different, 'autoethnographic' genre structure that emerged when students started to acknowledge the diverse backgrounds within the class.The chapter then offers practical considerations for the design of online internationalized programs.

Naming trouble in online internationalized education

This paper offers an analysis of cultural politics that emerged around naming practices in an ethnographic study of the interactions within an online MBA unit, offered by an Australian university to both ‘local’ Australian students and international students enrolled through a Malaysian partner institution. It became evident that names were doing important identity, textual and pedagogical work in these interactions and considerable interactive trouble arose over the social practices surrounding names. The analysis uses sociolinguistic concepts to analyse selected slices of the online texts and participants' interview accounts. The analysis shows how ethnocentric default settings in the courseware served to heighten and exacerbate cultural difference as a pedagogical problem. These events are related to the larger problematic of theorising the context of culture in times of globalisation and increasingly entangled educational routes, with implications for the enterprise of online internationalised education.

The trouble with English

So much has been made over the crisis in English literature as field, as corpus, and as canon in recent years, that some of it undoubtedly has spilled over into English education. This has been the case in predominantly English-speaking Anglo-American and Commonwealth nations, as well as in those postcolonial states where English remains the medium of instruction and lingua franca of economic and cultural elites. Yet to attribute the pressures for change in pedagogic practice to academic paradigm shift per se would prop up the shaky axiom that English education is forever caught in some kind of perverse evolutionary time-lag, parasitic of university literary studies. I, too, believe that English education has reached a crucial moment in its history, but that this moment is contingent upon the changing demographics, cultural knowledges, and practices of economic globalization.

The trouble with play

The Trouble with Play is a radical departure from some of the ideas about play that are held dear by many in early childhood education. For many, play is considered essential to children's development and learning, and is often promoted as a universal and almost magical 'fix'. Although play does have many proven benefits for children, the authors show that play in the early years is not always innocent, fun and natural. Play can also be political and involve morals, ethics, values and power.

Addressing a source of trouble outside of the repair space

A body of research in conversation analysis has identified a range of structurally-provided positions in which sources of trouble in talk-in-interaction can be addressed using repair. These practices are contained within what Schegloff (1992) calls the repair space. In this paper, I examine a rare instance in which a source of trouble is not resolved within the repair space and comes to be addressed outside of it. The practice by which this occurs is a post-completion account; that is, an account that is produced after the possible completion of the sequence containing a source of trouble. Unlike fourth position repair, the final repair position available within the repair space, this account is not made in preparation for a revised response to the trouble-source turn. Its more restrictive aim, rather, is to circumvent an ongoing difference between the parties involved. I argue that because the trouble is addressed in this manner, and in this particular position, the repair space can be considered as being limited to the sequence in which a source of trouble originates.
