Role Of Humiliation Research Articles

A Conversation About the Role of Humiliation in Teaching: The Ugly, the Bad, and the Good.

In this Invited Commentary, the authors identify the ugly, the bad, and the good in teaching in medical education, based on their experiences as medical students and then educators. They reflect on the mistreatment they endured during medical school and its impact on their education and their careers as educators. They also highlight those exemplars from their training who role modeled the type of physician and educator they want to be. The authors conclude by describing the elements of learner-centered education that they practice, which may be helpful for others to consider, and call on their fellow educators to end the practice of humiliating learners by moving away from a controlled-motivation model toward an autonomy-supportive approach to education.

Withdraw or affiliate? The role of humiliation during initiation rituals

Initiation rituals can take different forms and empirical evidence is inconsistent as to whether these rituals promote affiliation among novices. We argue that experienced humiliation during initiations leads to less affiliation among novices, in particular when one is initiated as sole group member rather than as part of the group. We examined this hypothesis in three studies, using different paradigms. In Study 1 (N = 123), perceived severity of an initiation in the past was associated with lower affiliation with other novices; this relationship was mediated by experienced humiliation. Study 2 (N = 64) showed that public derogation in the lab led to more humiliation when participants were the only victim than when they were derogated as a group. Study 3 (N = 248), a vignette study, showed that a similar effect of social context was mediated by expected support from other novices. We conclude that severe initiations may, due to experienced humiliation, result in less rather than more affiliation with fellow novices.

Masochistic Ritual and Rebirth in Fernão Mendes Pinto's Peregrinação

The present study, in a very literal sense a focused exploration of Jorge’s comments regarding the ontogenetically productive role of humiliation and violence within the Peregrinação, has at its center a concern with what I see as a series of masochistic rituals encoded within Mendes Pinto’s narrative.
