temporary, brain injury may be forever" : a neuropsychological study on the cumulative effects of sports-related concussive brain injury amongst Grade 12 school boy athletes http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3104 0.05), with the Contact sport groups having markedly higher incidences of concussion than controls (p < 0.000). Measures included the ImPACT Verbal and Visual Memory, Visuomotor Speed and Reaction Time Composites, Digit Symbol Substitution and Digit Symbol Incidental Recall (immediate and delayed), the ImPACT Symptom Scale and a Post-concussion Symptom (PCS) questionnaire. Independent t-tests on cognitive measures at pre-and post-season revealed a predominant trend of Contact and 2+ Concussion groups performing worse, although only ImPACT Reaction Time at pre-season reached significance (p = 0.014). PCS comparisons revealed an overwhelming tendency of enhanced symptoms for Contact and 2+ Concussion groups with total scores being significantly different in most instances at pre-and post-season. Fatigue and aggression were the symptoms most pervasively high for the Contact and 2+ Concussion groups. Dependent t-test analyses at pre- versus post-season, revealed significant practice effects for the Contact group, not in evidence for controls on ImPACT Visual Motor Speed and Digit Symbol Incidental Recall-Delayed. Overall the results imply the possible presence of lingering neurocognitive and symptomatic concussion sequelae amongst South African final year high school participants of a contact sport. The indications gain potency when understood against the background of (i) Brain Reserve Capacity threshold theory, and (ii) the known risk of Type II error in group MTBI research, that might result in under-emphasis of subtle effects and miscalculation of cost-benefit risks. Clinical implications, and the need for prospective case-based research to ratify the results of this predominantly cross-sectional study, are discussed.]]> Wed 12 May 2021 18:30:18 SAST ]]> A content analysis of psychology Masters theses from South African universities http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:33845 Wed 12 May 2021 18:14:51 SAST ]]> An analysis of the experience of the acute phase of traumatic spinal cord injury in a South African spinal unit http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:2978 Wed 12 May 2021 17:51:45 SAST ]]> A phenomenological explication of a client's retrospective experience of psychotherapy http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3138 Wed 12 May 2021 17:29:23 SAST ]]> "Is rugby bad for your intellect": the effect of repetitive mild head injuries on the cognitive functioning of university level rugby players http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3058 Wed 12 May 2021 17:28:19 SAST ]]> A systematic review of the efficacy of internet-based interventions for depression and anxiety disorders: the possibilities and limitations for feasibility within South Africa http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:38364 Wed 12 May 2021 17:17:40 SAST ]]> A social justice approach for counselling psychology in South Africa: lessons from a collaborative action research intervention http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:20791 Wed 12 May 2021 16:40:44 SAST ]]> A q-metholological approach to audience reception of public awareness messages on sexual violence http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:37920 Wed 12 May 2021 16:30:53 SAST ]]> A pilot study into the functioning of families with a member who is a hospice patient to determine whether hospice families require family therapy http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3207 Wed 12 May 2021 16:15:33 SAST ]]> Abstract and lifelike experimental games http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3137 Wed 12 May 2021 16:02:39 SAST ]]> A psychodiagnostic study of adolescent stealing http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3121 Wed 12 May 2021 15:52:08 SAST ]]> A comparative Rorschach study of some responses of Schizophrenic and non-Schizophrenic Nguni female subjects http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3216 Wed 12 May 2021 15:49:20 SAST ]]> A goal-setting intervention with motocross racers : a case study investigating the effects of an intervention on perceived motivation, confidence, and self-efficacy http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3224 Wed 12 May 2021 15:46:50 SAST ]]> A narrative-discursive analysis of abortion decision-making in Zimbabwe http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:19964 Tue 15 Aug 2023 16:14:22 SAST ]]> 'Show and tell': a discursive analysis of women's written accounts of their self-injuring practices http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3026 Tue 15 Aug 2023 16:06:20 SAST ]]> "But what story?": a narrative-discursive analysis of "white" Afrikaners' accounts of male involvement in parenthood decision-making http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3025 40 years), which were then differentiated according to gender, reproductive status, and relationship status. Treating the interviews as jointly produced narratives, I analysed them by means of a performativity/performance lens. This dual analytic lens focuses on how particular narrative performances are simultaneously shaped by the interview setting and the broader discursive context. The lens was fashioned by synthesising Butler’s theory of performativity with Taylor’s narrative-discursive method. This synthesis (1) allows for Butler’s notion of “performativity” to be supplemented with that of “performance”; (2) provides a concrete analytical strategy in the form of positioning analysis; and (3) draws attention to both the micro politics of the interview conversation and the operation of power on the macro level, including the possibility of making “gender trouble”. The findings of the study suggest that the participants experienced difficulty narrating about male involvement in parenthood decision-making, owing to the taken for granted nature of parenthood for heterosexual adults. This was evident in participants’ sidelining of issues of “deciding” and “planning” and their alternate construal of childbearing as a non-choice, which, significantly served to bolster hetero-patriarchal norms. A central rhetorical tool for accomplishing these purposes was found in the construction of the “sacralised” child. In discursively manoeuvring around the central problematic, the participants ultimately produced a “silence” in the data that repeats the one in the research literature.]]> Tue 15 Aug 2023 16:06:17
