Expressing Identity, Experiencing Belonging, and Everyday Life in Heavy Metal Music

Schulz, Douglas H.I. January 2022 (has links)
When heavy metal fans traverse through their everyday life, they are faced with countless opportunities to engage in social interactions with others. Such interactions question, establish, and strengthen fans’ heavy metal identities whilst providing them with a sense of community and belonging through engaging with others who also share a preference for heavy metal music. This thesis is built on a qualitative research approach, complimented by an insider and ethnographic orientation in order to explore identity expression, the feeling of belonging and community, everyday life processes, and the role of heavy metal music in the everyday life of heavy metal fans. Through social interactions based on shared musical preference, heavy metal fans are able to meaningfully engage with others through which communal affiliations are strengthened and reinforced. Despite mainstream, and largely negative attitudes towards heavy metal, the music provides a safety net for listeners and is a driving force in their experience of the reciprocal relationship between personal identity and group membership and community. Due to the deep connection listeners have with heavy metal, the music becomes something which fans are able to call theirs alone.

Vardagsrasism i förskolan : En studie om hur vardagsrasism uttrycks i förskolemiljö / Everyday racism in preschool : A study on how everyday racism is expressed in a preschool environment

Hansson, Felicia January 2024 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to examine how everyday racism is expressed in preschool by analyzing how teachers in preschool discuss “race” and ethnic discrimination that occurs in children's lives at preschool. The preschool must follow Lpfö 18 which gives teachers direction on how to work against racism and is obligated by law to base its operations on it (Skolverket, 2018).  The study's questions highlight preschool teachers´s view of their work in promoting the equal value of all children. The study is based on intersectionality as a form of analysis (Mattsson, 2015) and critically examines how power structure, social construction, and categorization affect how people relate to each other. The essay uses a qualitative approach, where preschool teachers who work in preschool are interviewed with a semi-structured approach. Digital recording documents the interviews and is presented anonymously.  The results highlight how preschool teachers make discrimination that occurs in children's everyday lives at preschool visible. The study contributes to an increased understanding of inequality that affects everyone in the preschool environment and how that impact can create insecurity in those who are exposed to discrimination.

A Theater for Gallaudet University at Florida Avenue Market

Winnike, Christopher John 18 June 2012 (has links)
This thesis was inspired by the ingenuity of the inhabitants of the Florida Avenue Market, in Washington DC. Through small scale iterative design solutions and creative use of public space the residents, street vendors, and small business owners in the area have reinvented their urban condition. Using extremely limited resources, they have created a unique vibrant urban market that provides economic, social and cultural value for their neighborhood and the city. Recent political and economic pressures are causing the market to go through a major transformation. This project will propose an urban design vision for the next evolution of the market which aims accommodate the expansion of Gallaudet University, while celebrating the unique character of the place and dignifying its current users. / Master of Architecture

Dyadic influences on awareness of condition in people with dementia: findings from the IDEAL cohort

Alexander, C.M., Martyr, A., Gamble, L.D., Quinn, Catherine, Pentecost, C., Morris, R.G., Clare, L. 12 December 2023 (has links)
Yes / The discrepancy between caregiver-ratings and self-ratings of abilities is commonly used to assess awareness in people with dementia. We investigated the contribution of caregiver and dyadic characteristics to the difference in perspective between caregiver-informants and people with dementia about difficulties experienced, when considering awareness of condition. Methods: We conducted exploratory cross-sectional analyses using data from the IDEAL cohort. Participants were 1,038 community-dwelling people with mild-to-moderate dementia, and coresident spouse/partner caregivers. The Representations and Adjustment to Dementia Index (RADIX) checklist reporting difficulties commonly experienced in dementia was completed by 960 caregiver-informants and 989 people with dementia. Difference in scores was calculated for 916 dyads. Demographic information, cognition, informant-rated functional ability and neuropsychiatric symptoms were recorded for the person with dementia. Self-reported data were collected on mood, comorbidity, religion, importance of religion, relationship quality, and caregiver stress. Results: For most dyads, caregivers reported more RADIX difficulties than people with dementia. Caregiver RADIX ratings were more closely associated with informant-rated functional ability and neuropsychiatric symptoms than with cognition. More RADIX difficulties and higher stress were reported by female caregivers. Greater RADIX difference was associated with more caregiver stress, and older age but less depression in people with dementia. Conclusion: Few dyadic characteristics were important, but caregiver stress was higher where caregivers reported more RADIX difficulties and/or the difference in perspective was greater, whereas partners with dementia reported better mood. In addition to offering information about awareness of condition, the caregiver rating and difference in perspectives could indicate where more support is needed. / The author(s) declare financial support was received for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article.
