Data analysis utilized ATLAS.ti 23 and the N-C-T (Noticing, Collecting, and Thinking) model. Connections and patterns were identified within the data. The theory that was generated explained the antecedents, nature, outcomes, and inhibiting conditions for joyful experiences in Dalcroze sessions. Dalcroze activities, which require active engagement and social interaction, led to accomplishments that, in turn, promoted high energy and intense joy. These experiences facilitated the opening of minds, other-embracing behaviour, improved musicianship, and enhanced individual and communal well-being. The theory provides a foundation for promoting joyful experiences in Dalcroze Eurhythmics sessions. Understanding factors that promote or inhibit joy empowers facilitators to create environments conducive to generating such elation. Educators can explore the theory's applicability to other music education and community music contexts. Dalcroze facilitators are encouraged to use creative, engaging activities, thereby fostering social interaction and experiences of success without competition or judgement. Creating a safe environment aligned with participants' abilities is crucial for fostering joy in Dalcroze sessions.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2468050"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11852224/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143484384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using Braun and Clarke's principle, we also mapped sub themes based on researchers' insights with the experiences shared by the slum populations. The study was conducted across 13 districts in slum areas to gather information from vulnerable groups based on the 40 focus group discussions.Findings: Poverty serves as a primary driver of domestic/internal migration from rural to urban areas, aggravating issues such as illiteracy, unemployment, and inadequate living conditions, which predispose slum dwellers to various health problems. Limited access to food, poor water quality, and improper waste disposal further compound health risks. People living in slums face economic, social, and physical vulnerabilities leading to health vulnerability and outcome.Conclusions: Enhancing the health and well-being of slum dwellers requires adopting an integrated and comprehensive approach of policy intervention, community mobilization, and multisectoral intervention.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2432692"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11650438/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142830822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within a trauma-focused research project in Sierra Leone, this sub-study examines these issues in the local context.Methods: We conducted a qualitatively driven mixed methods study (embedded design) from an emic-etic perspective. Qualitative interviews explored the assumptive worlds of 16 students, while questionnaires examining how assumptions were affected by trauma were completed by 280 students. All participants had experienced traumatic events (DSM-5). In addition, four expert interviews were conducted to address both aspects.Findings: The concept of world assumptions (benevolence, meaningfulness, self) was found to be relevant in the Sierra Leonean sample; however, the patterns differed from those typically documented in Western societies. Additional assumptions concerning the self, the world, others, and meaningfulness were identified. Quantitative results indicated that participants' assumptive worlds were challenged by trauma, shaping their personal life stories and identities.Conclusions: To strengthen culturally sensitive investigations, we propose renaming certain domains and dimensions to more neutral and inclusive ones, and considering additional facets.

Open-ended interviews addressed childhood experiences, perceived difficulties, and helpful aspects. Interviews lasted approximately 70 minutes and were recorded and transcribed. Thematic analysis was utilized to analyse the data.Results: We identified two main themes: an unstable, unpredictable upbringing environment and a lifelong responsibility. Participants did not regard their parent's suicide attempt as the most traumatic event of their childhood. Instead, they identified parental instability due to serious mental illness and/or substance abuse as the most stressful factor. This instability imposed significant emotional and practical responsibilities on the children, forcing them to sacrifice their own development and sense of security. Responsibility was characterized as a life lasting burden.Conclusions: Adult children of parents with suicidal behaviour reported that their parent's mental illness was the most burdensome aspect of their upbringing, leading to an unstable home with significant responsibilities.

Data were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis and presented through four individual consultations.Results: The study identified three main themes: expectations, hope, and acceptance. Patients frequently expressed hope for a diagnosis and treatment, while clinicians sought to guide them towards acceptance of their condition and managing symptoms rather than seeking a cure. However, patients often struggled with this approach, viewing it as a loss of hope for improvement. Additionally, patients' cultural expectations of biomedical solutions affected their response to acceptance-focused communication.
