• Moving Institutional Logics Forward: Emotion and Meaningful Material Practice (2018, background): “I am here appropriating Susan Foster’s notion of “kinesthetic empathy” of the audience for dance, in our moving along with the dancers (Foster, 2010, cited in S. Friedland, 2016).”
• Moving in and out of synchrony: A concept for a new intervention fostering empathy through interactional movement and dance (2012, background): “In line with Foster (2011), a researcher in dance studies/dance history, we argue that in the context of a social interaction, kinesthesia is an important aspect of empathy because it refers to a person’s own corporal feeling as a response to the body movements or posture of someone else.”
