Concrete Causation Roland Pöllinger In his study of causation J. L. Mackie once referred back to David Hume, who listed causation among one of the principles that are TO US THE CEMENT OF THE UNIVERSE and thus OF VAST CONSEQUENCE IN THE SCIENCE OF HUMAN NATURE (David Hume, AN ABSTRACT OF A “TREATISE OF HUMAN NATURE”). Yet for example the early endeavours of the developers of the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) framework, which aimed at embedding causal meaning into the formal treatment, seem to be neglected, and David Lewis' counterfactual analysis of causation based on his possible worlds semantics does not come very handy for application. As Judea Pearl summarises: WE ARE WITNESSING ONE OF THE MOST BIZARRE CIRCLES IN THE HISTORY OF SCIENCE: CAUSALITY IN SEARCH OF A LANGUAGE AND, SIMULTANEOUSLY, THE LANGUAGE OF CAUSALITY IN SEARCH OF ITS MEANING (Judea Pearl, CAUSALITY, 2000). Borrowing mathematical rigour from statistics, one of the most prominent areas of causal modelling today sounds out the interaction of probabi Peers in a Pod Fiona Eastmond “Peer Support in mental health is essentially people with similar experiences inspiring and supporting each other. This unique approach brings a truly human perspective to distress. Time, empathy and understanding become the norm not the exception. These ideas originated in the grassroots mental health survivor movement. Now, Peer Support Worker or Lived Experience Professional (LXP) or Expert by Experience have become paid careers across private, charity and public sectors including within the NHS. But what do we DO? and who ARE we? What IS Recovery anyway? Have we lost sight of our survivor status and sold out? We use our lived experience to help others – but what does that feel like? Is there anything left of us at the end of the day? Senior Peer Trainer Fiona Eastmond talks to a different person in every episode and digs deep into what it means to be a Peer. Fascinating people with unique journeys reveal a day in their lives and of course, their favourite songs and biscuits. An Raw Conversations with Corinne Blum Corinne Blum Raw Conversations is an off the cuff podcast, a stream of consciousness, a raw & vulnerable chat about being human, especially as we move through these evolutionary times.It's a safe place to put down any masks you might wear, drop the shame of being human & know, instead, that you're not alone & that it's ok to be you just as you are in this moment.We dive below who we think we should be & into who we truly are as our Authentic Self, embracing both our humanity & our divinity; coming into wholeness. It's a gentle space to be in both our messy humanness and our playful free-spiritedness!
