“…Role-playing was therefore a way to channel intense emotions that were explained as "difficult to deal with" in everyday life, but also a means of experiencing positive emotions that he rarely encountered outside of play. Like in other creatively geared therapeutic programs, such as dance and drama therapy, these opportunities may help individuals explore their own emotions and learn to better express their feelings (Frigon, 2010;Heard et al, 2013).…”

In this study we explore how participation in tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs) fosters experiences of social insertion in adolescence and adulthood. We conducted semi-directed interviews with nine participants who identified themselves as having used such practices to overcome difficult and challenging life experiences. We look at how participants interpreted their play experiences, described by some as “therapeutic.” Through TTRPGs, players were able to explore and better understand aspects of themselves, explore new interactions, and “test” new ways of expressing themselves. Additionally, participants were able to develop their interpersonal skills by participating in such practices, namely because of the roleplaying element. Participants stated that these practices and their therapeutic qualities also had positive effects on their lives outside of the game, helping them to enter and engage in various social situations that they previously felt excluded from, or hesitant to participate in. We argue that social interventions could invest in these types of cultural practices, embedded in popular culture, to encourage and facilitate participation of adolescents and adults in mental health services.

“…Relational leisure includes support groups and citizen-detainee circles (see Twaddle et al, 2007;Pedlar et al, 2008Pedlar et al, , 2018Fortune et al, 2010;Yuen et al, 2012). The above types are not mutually exclusive: for instance dance is physical and artistic, whereas yoga is physical, artistic, and spiritual (see Frigon and Jenny, 2009;Frigon, 2010Frigon, , 2014Frigon, , 2019Jenny and Frigon, 2012;Bilderbeck et al, 2014;Auty et al, 2017;Bartels et al, 2019;Middleton et al, 2019;Rousseau et al, 2019). Programs include parenting, philosophy, nutrition, and high school courses; work and vocational training; clinical or therapeutic programs focused on intoxication or addictions (Morash et al, 1994;Batchelder and Pippert, 2002;Pollack, 2009Pollack, , 2016Williams and Walker, 2009;Firth et al, 2015;McCall, 2016;Coulombe, 2017;Crittenden and Koons-Witt, 2017;Duwe, 2017;Zhao et al, 2019).…”

Leisure is commonly understood as contributing to well-being; this is especially appealing when considering multiply marginalized populations such as incarcerated women. However, leisure is not impervious to cooptation by less benevolent social processes. In this conceptual analysis, I argue that incarcerated women's leisure must be rethought as a component of its environment and by extension, as subjected to coercive and normative prison missions. After broadly delineating incarcerated women's leisure, I determine that some characteristics of leisure can be compatible with these prison missions. I then examine individual, organizational, and social benefits and issues with leisure in women's prisons. I link these practices to reduced coerciveness and increased normativity. I conclude by suggesting that ensuring incarcerated people's well-being through leisure is not in itself an end, but a means to achieve prison's coercive and normative ends. I discuss implications for scholars, practitioners, and advocates.

L’objectif de cet article est de décrire la place et l’usage des méthodes qualitatives tels qu’ils ressortent des recherches qui ont fait l’objet d’articles dans la revue Criminologie. Pour ce faire, nous nous intéressons au développement de ces méthodes à l’École de criminologie de l’Université de Montréal, puis à certaines des transformations qui ont façonné le champ de la criminologie et celui de la recherche qualitative dans leur ensemble et, enfin, aux pratiques de recherches qualitatives diffusées dans la revue. Le corpus retenu comprend 114 articles qualitatifs publiés entre 1972 et 2016. L’analyse permet de dresser un portrait des usages de la méthodologie qualitative, d’exemplifier la façon dont sont rapportés ces usages et de cerner des tendances dont certaines sont communes à celles observées à l’École de criminologie, mais également, en criminologie.
