Self-love
Published in Stephen Buetow, From Loneliness to Solitude in Person-centred Health Care, 2023
Self-love is not solipsism or navel-gazing.44 Contrary to the 16th-century French theologian John Calvin,45 it is not a “pest” disposing persons to judge and look down on others. Although positively related to self-interest, it is also not synonymous with egocentrism or narcissism as pathologically self-absorbing love styles. When persons care less about documenting their surroundings than snapping selfies that feature themselves46 and posting them on social media,47 they exhibit narcissism rather than self-love.48
Interpersonal Gaps

In addition to modelling and practising social skills with the therapist in session and ultimately practising with safe people outside therapy, the young person can be encouraged to practice alone. This might involve, for example, looking in a mirror, using a smart phone selfie video, or audio recording. Homework activities can be tailored to the young person’s particular areas of discomfort or difficulty with social skills.
Headless Horseman
Published in R. Annie Gough, Injury Illustrated, 2020
I cannot overemphasize the value of the client likeness in illustrations for the legal audience. Therefore, I will almost always request a photograph to create the illustrations to look like the person, especially if the client sustained trauma to their head, neck, chest, or shoulders. There is no need for a professional photo; cell phone selfies often work fine. I believe it is respectful of the client to give them a face. It takes more time to add their likeness, but the extra hour is worth every penny. The jury feels more emotion looking at the actual person rather than a generic head or set of shoulders with no head. The intimacy of a human face elicits a desired empathy in the recognition of a fellow human. Sometimes it is difficult to look at the person in the illustrations because of the extent of trauma. This difficulty is emotion and it's worth capturing. It is a tool to be used properly. If handled with care, the likeness of your client's face on the illustrations will carry emotional impact throughout the case, especially if your client cannot be present at mediation or trial. For example, if the client has a small brain bleed or hairline skull fracture, the face gives life to their subtle injury. Clients are real people with names and families and it is important that they are not forgotten in the anatomy. As a judge or juror, if you look at a skull fracture alone, are you excited to learn about the anatomy presented? With the face added, do you care more about the person? Are you more curious about their story?
What Are Nursing Attitudes to Youth Who Engage in Self-Harm? An Integrative Review
Published in Issues in Mental Health Nursing, 2021
These conclusions are consistent with the review by Cutcliffe and Stevenson (2008) who suggested that the role of nurses’ may involve acting as a bridge back to humanity for the person through a nurturing relationship. In a later work by Cutcliffe and Santos (2012) this bridging back to humanity is constructed into three stages (1) Reflecting an image of humanity, (2) Guiding the individual back to humanity, and (3) Learning to live later discussion by Du Preez (2018) may serve to take this role description by Cutcliffe and Santos (2012) further in describing the practice of the nurse. Du Preez (2018) considers the use of ‘selfies’ by youth in mortally dangerous situations, such as going to immense heights seeking a transcendent and enduring experience to put on social media. Du Preez (2018) discusses the experience of ‘numbness’ as part of the experience of the ‘selfie’ and reflects on the myth of narcissus more closely than has been considered in this review.
Mountains and Molehills When Using Social Media as a Research Support Tool
Published in The American Journal of Bioethics, 2019

A related consideration not addressed by Bhatia-Lin and colleagues is that social media profiles may also reveal participant noncompliance. For example, a participant in a study that requires abstention from smoking may post a selfie that captures her with cigarette in hand. Beyond inadvertent discovery, we imagine that researchers may wish to track participant profiles specifically to identify such behaviors. With appropriate disclosure and consent, this type of tracking can be ethically acceptable, too, although it is reasonable to question whether putting participants on notice that they are being watched would render such tracking ineffective. Watching participant behavior online without permission, however, seems likely to pose serious risks to the trust often needed for successful research, even if the online posts are ostensibly public. While there are circumstances in which nondisclosure and even deception are permissible when necessary for minimal risk research, these are typically exceptional scenarios (45 CFR 46.116(f)(2018)).
Scientific Evolution of Clinical and Risk Assessment of Sexually Abusive Youth: A Comprehensive Review of Empirical Tools
Published in Journal of Child Sexual Abuse, 2018
L.C. Miccio-Fonseca, Lucinda A. Lee Rasmussen
Internet sex-only offenders may comprise a significant but elusive subgroup of individuals (of all ages and genders). Their “silhouette” is complicated by the significant lack of empirical descriptive research providing a detailed picture of their risk and protective factors. We are living in a digital age with wonderful benefits (e.g., rapid dissemination of information), but concerning repercussions (i.e., adversaries meddling in democratic elections). Members of the society at large were quick to engage in these new technologies, some of which became fad-like (e.g., “selfies”). Eventually, sharing selfies included intimate and private material (i.e., nude selfies) as though it was culturally sanctioned. Objections reached critical mass, hurling attorneys and judges to find that laws were inadequate for dealing with the vast changes and abuses occurring in the digital world.
