Moving Through Loss: The Experience of Ambiguous Loss with Hospitalized Children, The Development of a Method

The current method examined the effects of ambiguous loss with medical transplant patients in a pediatric hospital by utilizing a dance/movement therapy intervention. The development of this method was based on ambiguous loss theory with a dance/movement therapy approach. The explored literature identified central themes of ambiguous loss, such as resilience. These themes were connected to the practice of dance/movement therapy, such as embodiment. With this connection, the intervention was developed and implemented with participants. The central themes that emerged from the intervention were change, loss, meaning-making, and hope. One child and two adolescents were participants in this intervention, and each was treated as a separate, individual intervention. All three of the participants had or were awaiting a form of transplant. By utilizing a dance/movement therapy method, the participant embodied an experience that is often difficult to find words to describe. The intervention included a verbal check-in, body-based warm-up, a movement directive, a movement-based closing, and a verbal closing. Rich and positive results were produced by this method that provided a deeper understanding of ambiguous loss with chronically hospitalized children. The recognition of ambiguous loss within the medical and mental health field will provide patients with further, invaluable support throughout their hospitalization

Pandora\u27s Box: The Liberation of Welfare Mothers

Excerpt from the full-text article: The non- misandrist mainstream of the women\u27s movement has suggested that, more than women being liberated from male oppression, both sexes need to be liberated from the tyranny of culturally determined sex roles, the last bastion of ascribed status. If all social roles were androgynous they could be based on more relevant criteria. For example, children would be encouraged to develop skills and talents without regard for their appropriateness to gender, the male-female ratio in the work force and in nearly all specific occupations would be virtually equal, pay would be equal, and the number of female breadwinners would not only equal male breadwinners, but the number of housewives would not greatly exceed the number of househusbands. It is the contention of this paper that there is no group of women in America more desperately in need of such a sex role revolution than welfare mothers and none less likely to share in one. This is drawn from a review of the literature in answer to these questions: Who are the welfare mothers? How would a sex role revolution affect welfare? Why are welfare mothers especially in need of liberation from sex roles? And what are the factors militating against such liberation
