Trauma victims often come to remember experiencing more trauma than they initially reported. Our experiments are the first to investigate a plausible mechanism for this memory amplification, namely, that people incorporate new details contained in post-event information (PEI) into their event memory. In Experiment 1, participants viewed traumatic…

In people with intellectual disabilities research and policy are often still focused on risks or the prevention of risks. Research on the process of resilience is in its infancy in the care for people with intellectual disabilities. In the current study, applying a guided photovoice procedure, people with intellectual disabilities were asked what…

This qualitative study examined how Black women graduate students engaged in radical healing through the Homeplace Research Collective at the University of Florida. The purpose of this study is to investigate the lived experiences of Black women graduate students by focusing on the challenges they encounter within the academy and how their…

In this article, we suggest incorporating visual images into peace education through "interactive peace imagery" (IPI). We will show, and illustrate with examples from our work, that interactive teaching creates a space for students to reflect upon their socializations, including visual ones, without which image interpretation cannot be…

Objective: This research examined the use of georeferenced photo-elicitation projects in conducting "assets inventories" of on-campus resources for students who have been the victims of violence. Participants: A pilot study was conducted with 27 undergraduate students at a small, Hispanic-serving, Catholic, liberal arts university.…

The present study, based on a joint photovoice inquiry by 9 social work educators, set out to examine their real-time lived experiences in the face of the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic. The study was based on a series of group sessions during which 29 photovoice were collected. These served as the basis for a group dialogue about the lecturers'…

This autoethnographic exploration of my journey from college athlete to an adaptive athlete and an Israel educator. The emergent self-study leverages photographic and poetic inquiry to explore feelings surrounding my relationship to my acquired physical disability and my relationship with my Jewishness and Israel.

This article investigates use of digital storytelling as a learning activity in education about migration. Based on a study in two Norwegian schools and two adult education centers for refugees and migrants, the article analyzes student's digital stories and observations of the process of production. Counter to research on the promise of digital…

The aim of this article is to use necropolitics and sentimentality as theoretical entry points to broaden understandings of death as a form of power against subjugated (e.g. Black, migrant, refugee) lives. This theorising is approached through the dilemma of showing or not showing dead-body images in the classroom as an ethical, political and…

This issue of the Bank Street "Occasional Paper Series" is a labor of love. It testifies love for Jonathan Silin, who for 17 years served as Editor-in-Chief. This issue has been designed to exemplify two commitments that have shaped the decades of Jonathan's career and that will resonate with readers of the "Occasional Paper…

As a research methodology, photovoice raises the critical consciousness of its participants as it prods them to act in the community. In the present qualitative case study, I describe the implementation of photovoice in an online elective course in a medium-sized Midwestern public university during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although…

This article analyses two concepts that merge critical educational theory and practice: "photo-monologue" and "photo-dialogue," based on a workshop of Arab and Jewish students in Israel focused on family albums. The photo-monologue consists of a photograph and a quote by or in the name of a person seen in the photograph. The…

The purpose of this self-directed learning (SDL) project for my doctoral level "Adult Learning in Social Contexts" class in the fall of 2018 was to develop an idea to use photography, music, and writing to tell a person's trauma story. Memory Narratives (MN) as a creative method for women survivors of abuse returning to college (WSARC)…

This paper is an "ofrenda" (offering), a "testimonio" (testimony) of the healing power of reconstituting severed relationships and reconstructing agentic creation stories in the pathology of soul-wounds where pictures and "cuentos" serve to mend genealogical traumas. This paper is a refusal of neglecting traumas, it…

Learning to conduct qualitative research is a complex endeavor. In this article, I introduce mixed reality simulations as a scaffolded learning tool to support student mastery of learning and knowing how to conduct qualitative research. Like flight simulators used to train airline pilots prior to flying an actual airplane, mixed reality…
