Spirited Histories combines ethnography with critical theory to provide a sophisticated exploration of the intersection of haunting and the paranormal with technology, media, and history. Retrieving the past in places of trauma and death can take on many facets. One of these is an attention to hauntings, ghosts, and absences that go with the collective experience of loss and disappearance. People memorialize the dead and their stories in myriad ways. But what about the untold stories, or the forgotten, unnamed? This book explores the ways groups of Chilean paranormal investigators and ghost tour operators produce alternate histories using paranormal machinery, rather than simply theatricalizing pain. It offers a look at technologies, machines, and apparatuses – themselves imbued with a long history of supernatural and scientific expectations – and a social analysis of how certain groups of people marshal the voices of the dead to generate particular micro-histories. This fascinating volume will be of interest to a range of disciplines, including anthropology, sociology, history, religious studies, and scholars of technology and new media.

In Transmitted Wounds, Amit Pinchevski explores the ways media technology and logic shape the social life of trauma both clinically and culturally. Bringing media theory to bear on trauma theory, Pinchevski reveals the technical operations that inform the conception and experience of traumatic impact and memory. He offers a bold thesis about the deep association of media and trauma: media bear witness to the human failure to bear witness, making the traumatic technologically transmissible and reproducible. Taking up a number of case studies--the radio broadcasts of the Eichmann trial; the videotaping of Holocaust testimonies; recent psychiatric debates about trauma through media following the 9/11 attacks; current controversy surrounding drone operators' post-trauma; and digital platforms of algorithmic-holographic witnessing and virtual reality exposure therapy for PTSD--Pinchevski demonstrates how the technological mediation of trauma feeds into the traumatic condition itself. The result is a novel understanding of media as constituting the material conditions for trauma to appear as something that cannot be fully approached and yet somehow must be. While drawing on contemporary materialist media theory, especially the work of Friedrich Kittler and his followers, Pinchevski goes beyond the anti-humanistic tendency characterizing the materialist approach, discovering media as bearing out the human vulnerability epitomized in trauma, and finding therein a basis for moral concern in the face of violence and atrocity. Transmitted Wounds unfolds the ethical and political stakes involved in the technological transmission of mental wounds across clinical, literary, and cultural contexts.

Over 50 million individuals in the U.S. struggle with mental illness, with the burden being higher among marginalized groups, such as those with substance use disorders, elders and racial and ethnic minorities. Scholars are investigating information-communication technologies (ICT) to reduce mental health disparities. However, many of these groups also suffer a high trauma burden and ICTs don't often account for the impact this trauma may have on engagement with the intervention and intervention effects. This dissertation aims to build the case for utilizing trauma-informed and healing-centered practices in ICTs for marginalized populations with trauma history and mental health morbidity. Study 1 and study 2 demonstrate potential adverse outcomes of ICT use on three marginalized populations, depressed elders, socially isolated elders and individuals with opioid use disorder. Healing-centered and trauma-informed care can help guide interventions for these groups and reduce the potential harms. However, no current model or best-practice exists on how to design or implement trauma-informed practices online. Thus, study 3 proposes a model for healing-centered engagement online. It also applies this model to online messaging on an ICT for opioid use disorder and investigates its association with online engagement. Moderator messages on the ICT were only somewhat healing-centered and some healing-centered principles were related to increased engagement while others were associated with decreased engagement. Future directions and implications are discussed. The final chapter provides examples of healing-centered messages from a social media intervention to improve COVID-19 information for Black, LatinX, and Native American populations and provides key principles for the design and implementation of trauma-informed and healing-centered digital interventions. In order to design equitable interventions, public health practitioners and health communication scholars should incorporate more trauma-informed and healing-centered approaches.

"This study integrates the humanities with psychology by examining the impact technology has on humans. Ethics, literary works that relate to the impact of technology on humans, and how social media and television today may impact the layperson in such a way that they may exhibit symptoms of the condition of secondary traumatic stress will be examined. Through the use of the humanities, this study connects the impact technology has on changing societies, the ethics associated with the way humans react to each other and how television and social media's delivery of traumatic stories may leave some humans with secondary traumatic stress. First, a discussion will be presented on what is known about ethics and technology through a study of the humanities, specifically by looking at traditional literary works and philosophies. Second, an examination of the way technology has changed people will be revealed, including the technological changes in the tools we use to communicate with each other. Then a discussion will occur on how the platforms of television and Internet and social media may be a means to deliver a traumatic story, which may perhaps trigger some laypersons to acquire psychiatric symptoms of an anxiety disorder. Finally, a discussion of the administered arid analyzed survey will be implemented to offer feedback on whether or not a scientific study is warranted to further examine secondary traumatic stress in the layperson. This study demonstrates how the communication technologies of television and Internet, with social media, impacted the human condition in that the very presence of television and social media today may indeed affect the human in such a way that secondary traumatic stress in the layperson may surface. In the survey, data were present that some laypersons exhibited symptoms of experiencing traumatic stress after exposure to real life traumas through television and social media. Further scientific research is necessary to determine if a correlation exists between the layperson developing secondary traumatic stress and the amount of exposure to others' real-life traumatic events through television and social media"--Abstract.
