in case of pain

November 24, 2009

“findings suggest that bringing loved ones’ photographs to painful procedures may be beneficial, particularly if those individuals cannot be there. In fact, because loved ones vary in their ability to provide support, photographs may, in some cases, be more effective than in-person support. In sum, these findings challenge the notion that the beneficial effects of social support come solely from supportive social interactions and suggest that simple reminders of loved ones may be sufficient to engender feelings of support.”

on the nytimes website there is a great 7 part series ‘the case of the inappropriate alarm clock’ by errol morris getting under way. it deals with the controversies surrounding the FSA photographers and issues that are still at large today regarding the manipulation and altering of photographs.
