Interviewing spaces

The contractors SSAHPs at Sites B, F, and K had general confined space provisions but lacked site-specific confined space procedures. For example, SSAHPs for the Site K contractor and subcontractor had written confined space entry programs, but the programs did not establish site-specific rescue procedures or identify the confined space hazards present on the site. The job hazard analyses for both programs failed to address site maintenance tasks that could involve confined space entry and hot work hazards. The programs also failed to identify the specific person or position responsible for supervising confined space entry procedures and the location of permit-required confined spaces on site. Interviews with both contractors indicated confusion about rescue procedures.

Given the number of Carothers letters and the space limitations of this book, I have grouped his letters and the data learned from them by location, rather than listing each letter individually. I hope that this enables scholars to locate sources of information about Carothers without making the book too expensive for general readers. Interviews with the author (by telephone unless noted) ... 

During each interview I stepped out of my role as a counselor, called on my experience as a biographer and created a new role for myself. As a fellow companion and seeker of hope and wisdom I witnessed the following stories told to me in mutually beneficial encounters. These stories of creativity and courage poured out to me in the sacred spaces occupied by chemically-injured people, from tiny oases in the desert to spacious urban homes custom-designed to accommodate the chemically sensitive. 

An item of major importance to the preparation of an applications campaign is a complete and easily understood checklist for the collection of all the information that will ultimately be needed by both technical and market-research personnel at his home office. This form should include space for observations on the total size of the market, the share enjoyed by the company interviewed, and the probable influence of selling price of the new material within that market. Only when the interviewer brings back information from which the technical obstacles, market size, and potential profitability can all be judged realistically on a preliminary basis—only then can a commercial development manager make the necessary decisions on the future for his material. 

A second way to insure that children have access to the necessary information about the referent space is to give them mapping tasks while they are in the referent space itself. Illustrative is work in which children are asked to look around a room to find objects, and then mark the objects locations on a map of that room (e.g., Liben Downs, 1993 Liben Yekel, 1996), or to go to a location marked on a map of the room in which the child is being interviewed (e.g., Bluestein Acredolo, 1979 Presson, 1982). 

If you have not previously provided a copy of the job description or outline to the candidate, give them a copy before the interview. Then give the candidates 10 to 15 minutes to review the job description and a quiet space to look at the materials and organize their thoughts. This is the time when a good job description is critical it becomes the basis on which both you and the candidates will assess their appropriateness for the job. 

The potential for soil chemistry to teU us about past human activities is enormous, but also very difficult. Clear patterns can usuaUy be found in chemical studies of house floors and other activity areas but interpretation of their meaning is complex. One of the best ways to learn more about chemical patterns is to study known situations, where activities can be observed or reconstructed from other information. Contemporary households where earthen floors are in use have provided a context for this kind of study in several instances. The inhabitants of the house could be observed or interviewed regarding the use of space and activities that had taken place. 

An ordinary copy of Mathematics for Physicists is about two inches thick. However, the Braille version on Dr. Skaw-inski s bookshelf requires more than three feet of space. The chemist, who began losing his sight in childhood, consults this reference as he creates three-dimensional models of molecules. In the follovi/ing interview. Dr. Skavi/inski talks about his innovative work and his love of chemistry.

I have benefited over the years from many discussions with the authors of the papers cited, and those of many other papers which time and space preclude. I thank them for their explanations and inspiration. I also thank Dr Gillian Bade for a critical reading of the manuscript. Any omissions (and I know that there are many) and errors are mine and I apologize to those whose work I may have seemed to overlook. This chapter is not really a history of science. If it were to be so, I would have interviewed many of the protagonists involved in the research, and requested copies of their correspondence, lab notebooks and notes. Nor is it a comprehensive review of the literature which is, at this point, too vast and diversified to encapsulate into a single short article. Rather it is my recollection of the important events which subsequently shaped the field, and my own opinion about what constitutes important. I have attempted to cite the earliest, most seminal papers and to include appropriate and accessible reviews. Finally, I wish to thank Alan Heeger, my thesis advisor until 1975, and a mentor ever since. 

Interviews with Inhabitants Interviews with inhabitants of semiprivate spaces (residential courtyards, gardens, etc.). The aim of these interviews was to nnder-stand their attitudes toward women s privacy and how this influenced the physical form of the spaces which they inhabit. Inhabitants of ten residential courtyards and ten residential gardens were interviewed. 

Data collected from the observations and interviews are concerned with influence of privacy on women s access to public sphere, and attitudes of decisionmakers, including women, about design and planning process toward women s privacy. These data can be categorized into three themes The first is concerned with women s access to public sphere and the influence of privacy. The second is concerned with attitudes of decision makers (inhabitants, managers of pubhc spaces, planners, and architects) toward women s privacy. The third is concerned with attitudes of women, as being decision makers, toward their needs, particularly privacy. 

In Palestine, it seems that privacy need is still important for a large number of women despite change in women s role and influence of modernity. For this reason, women s behavior in pnblic spaces is restricted becanse the physical form of these spaces does not provide women with their required level of privacy. Observations and interviews with women showed that in spaces which do not comply with... 

Observations and interviews with inhabitants of the dwellings showed that most of them care much about women s privacy inside the semiprivate spaces. Inhabitants of the courtyards (Fig. 9.7) explained that they cover and divide their coirrtyards for privacy reasorts, in addition to other reasons such as secirrity and climatic ones, or the need for additional space. 

Observations and interviews with managers of public spaces as restaurants and public baths (Fig. 9.10) showed that many of them designate spaces (Fig. 9.10a) or times (Fig. 9.10b) for the use of either women or families in the buildings they manage. They did this to encourage women s use of these spaces and improve then-profits. 

Observations and interviews with architects and planners showed that women s privacy influenced the decision-making process regarding the physical form of public and urban spaces, despite the fact that building codes and regulations do not mention anything about women s privacy, as shown in the following cases ... 

In addition, the interviews showed that architects and planners consider women s privacy in pubUc spaces designed for children. They explained that when they design any space for children, they think abont women s nse of this space. Also, when they design mosqnes, schools, or pnbhc toilets, they always separate between males and females spaces inside these bnildings. 

Interviews with female plaimers and architects showed that they have the same attitudes as males toward their privacy needs. In other words, women do not reflect their privacy need in professional practice, although they are involved in the design process. Meanwhile, some scholars explained that involving women in design and development of cities helps women to reflect their needs (Darke and Yeandle 1996 Greed 2005 Lansley et al. 1989 Moser 1993), and others explain that women continue to face problems in using public spaces (Karp et al. 1991 Worpole 1992).
