Alvin Lucier’s “Music for Solo Performer.” This piece has been regarded as the first of its…

Limb deficiencies resulting from traumatic amputation are a specialized form of trauma. They often do not occur in children, and as such, can be difficult to handle. This trauma is also specifically labor intensive because it affects the child as whole: physically, emotionally, and psychologically. These consequences are persistent, occurring as soon as the trauma does, and continuing long after into the lives of the child and parents. These also mean that the child will require care in…

Unfortunately, at a time when incredible value is placed on novelty and individual creativity, the narratives of the past often fall on deaf ears, written off as mere nostalgia (Hunt 2014, 1).

construct (Spencer et al., 2002). The third measure of validity is the generalizability of TTM and its constructs across varied population and timeframe, which Spencer et al. (2002) found in many cross-sectional intervention studies that utilized large-scale interventions/programs and individualized counselling programs. The final criterion for measuring the validity of TTM is its comparison with similar/rival theories specifically how the stages of change is applied, defined, and measured, or…
