  • A General Systems Theory Approach in Public Hearing Health: Lessons Learned From a Systematic Review of General Systems Theory in Healthcare
    IEEE Access, 2020
    Co-Authors: Panagiotis Katrakazas, Konstantinos Pastiadis, Athanasios Bibas, Dimitris Koutsouris
    Abstract:

    General Systems Theory (GST), as it was introduced by Karl Ludwig von Bertalannfy, had a significant, yet mostly unacknowledged influence on systems theory. The purpose of the current review is to highlight and assess the application of the aforementioned theory in the healthcare field and suggest a new approach to the Public Hearing healthcare sector. A systematic literature review has been conducted in the electronic databases of ScienceDirect, Pubmed and IEEEXplore covering the years of 2009-2019, following the PRISMA guidelines. The article selection was performed to identify GST-related frameworks in the healthcare field and was completed through a process of removing duplicates and non-available articles, analyzing the tittle and abstract, and then reviewing the full text of each selected article. In the final analysis, 47 studies were selected and were thoroughly analysed. Almost half of these articles showed a practical implementation of GST-inspired frameworks, following different types of research methodology. Analysis of these methodologies identified the limitations and positive effects of GST in the healthcare field. Although there is a significant number of references in GST in the healthcare field over the last 10 years, applications of it need to be further tested and explored before they are put into real-situation testing. Simulation models and evidence-based approaches on a micro-, meso- and macro-level of systems should be used to provide the contextual information needed for establishing GST as a driving force in the healthcare field. To this context, a paradigm of GST data framework applied to the Hearing loss screening area is hereby presented and discussed. It is shown that a GST approach can be used to identify equilibria in all levels, to balance gain and prediction capacity over time and enhance Public Hearing health approaches for treatment and management strategies.

  • Argumentation in Nigerian investigative Public Hearings: A pragma-dialectical study of defendants’ discourses
    Journal of Argumentation in Context, 2020
    Co-Authors: Foluke Olayinka Unuabonah
    Abstract:

    Abstract This paper examines defendants’ argumentative discourse in the 2008 Nigerian investigative Public Hearings on the Federal Capital Territory administration. The data, which consist of nine defendants’ presentations, are analyzed qualitatively, using a combination of the pragma-dialectical and extended pragma-dialectical theories of argumentation. The findings show that the Hearing panel initially starts of as the institutional protagonist and defendants as the antagonists, and but later serve as the institutional antagonist and protagonists, respectively. The defendants tend to use analogy and causal argumentation schemes while employing subordinative and complementary coordinative argumentation structures. The defendants also employ different strategic maneuvers at different argumentative stages of the critical discussion. Due to the politico-forensic communicative domain and information-seeking genre of the investigative Public Hearing discourse, the concluding stage is suspended. Thus, the study shows the influence of communicative activity type on the argumentative activities in a critical discussion.

  • But as a stance marker in Nigerian investigative Public Hearings
    Pragmatics and Society, 2017
    Co-Authors: Foluke Olayinka Unuabonah
    Abstract:

    This study examines the kinds of stance that but as a contrastive marker signals in Nigerian investigative Public Hearings, with a view to exploring the contexts in which the stances are made. The study examines forty purposively selected investigative Public Hearing sessions which involve interactions between complainants, defendants and a Hearing panel. The data are analysed qualitatively utilising Du Bois’ (2007) interactional view of stance and Martin and White’s (2005) Appraisal system. Results indicate that but signals epistemic, evidential, emotive and evaluative stances within the narrative, interrogative and closing contexts. These stances and their contextual patterns depend heavily on the roles, goals and knowledge of the participants as stancetakers who position themselves, and align with other participants and the wider discourse community in order to express evaluation and intersubjective positioning.

  • Contextual Beliefs in a Nigerian Quasi-Judicial Public Hearing:
    Journal of Asian and African Studies, 2016

    Abstract:

    This study examines the contextual beliefs held by interactants in the 2008 quasi-judicial Public Hearing on the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja Administration in Nigeria, using Odebunmi’s (...
