Enhancing Pragmatic Language skills for Young children with Social communication difficulties (E-PLAYS-2) trial
v1.1 19th June 2023
Les argiles utilisées au Moyen Âge et à l’époque moderne par l’industrie tuilière de Barbery (Calvados)
Entre le xive et le xviiie siècle, à Barbery (Calvados), plusieurs tuileries ont produit les matériaux destinés à la couverture d’un grand nombre d’édifices de la plaine de Caen et du Pays de Falaise. La richesse des sources écrites (tabellionage, comptabilités, iconographie) a incité à la mise en place d’un programme de recherche pluridisciplinaire visant à étudier la totalité de la chaîne opératoire depuis l’extraction de la matière première ju…
How young, disadvantaged fathers are affected by socioeconomic and relational barriers
This article is based on the interviews of nine young, socially disadvantaged fathers from the UK. Young fathers are more likely to experience socioeconomic deprivation and disrupted pathways towards parenthood, which affect their participation in socially accepted trajectories of ‘father involvement’. Whilst this has received some attention in research, studies have largely neglected to examine the lived experiences of such fathers directly. The…
Using organizational performance assessment to improve service to the community
In this paper, we present the results of a case study of an innovative organizational performance assessment approach implemented within a specialty unit of a large Canadian police service. The CIV Tool (Capability, Importance and Value) was used in the case study to identify opportunities for enhancing the unit’s performance. The CIV Tool is based on an action research methodology that focuses attention on police roles and the value these provid…
The Caresses Randomised Controlled Trial
This trial represents the final stage of the CARESSES project which aimed to develop and evaluate a culturally competent artificial intelligent system embedded into social robots to support older adult wellbeing. A parallel group, single-blind randomised controlled trial was conducted across older adult care homes in England and Japan. Participants randomly allocated to the Experimental Group or Control Group 1 received a Pepper robot for up 18 h…

Rural livelihood trajectories in the central Brazilian Amazon
Middle Holocene rapid environmental changes and human adaptation in Greece
Numerous researchers discuss of the collapse of civilizations in response to abrupt climate change in the Mediterranean region. The period between 6500 and 5000 cal yr BP is one of the least studied episodes of rapid climate change at the end of the Late Neolithic. This period is characterized by a dramatic decline in settlement and a cultural break in the Balkans. High-resolution paleoenvironmental proxy data obtained in the Lower Angitis Valley…
Climate and human–environment relationships on the edge of the Tenaghi-Philippon marsh (Northern Greece) during the Neolithization process
Blood antioxidant nutrients in riparian villagers of the Brazilian Amazon
This study associates blood antioxidants like copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), selenium (Se), zinc (Zn), β-carotene, lycopene and vitamins (A and E) to sociodemographic features and seasonality in communities from the Tapajós River region, Brazilian Amazon. We observed increased Mn, Se and Zn levels compared to the average Brazilian population, whereas this is only the case for β-carotene in the rainy season. Lycopene levels fall within the reference…

Livelihood activities and land-use at a riparian frontier of the Brazilian Amazon
Social barriers to the adoption of smart homes
The lowest levels at Dikili Tash, northern Greece
Tells famously capture the historical sequences of the earliest farmers—but digging them is not easy. With a depth of strata of 17m at Dikili Tash, the earliest occupation was out of reach of a trench. But our researchers got there by coring, extending the date of the first occupation back 1000 years, and deducing, from small samples, the changing environment and possible connections with Anatolia
Middle to Late Holocene landscape changes and geoarchaeological implications in the marshes of the Dives estuary (NW France)
More than ‘Just Coping’
This paper attempts to contribute to understandings of the role of resilience as a process enabling individuals to steer a positive course in their lives by drawing on longitudinal qualitative data collected from six case study individuals, drawn from a wider study of one hundred families over a seven-year period. It is shown how respondents construct their own life trajectories, specifically reflecting on the changes and challenges they face. Ad…

Radical blueprint for social change'? Media representations of New Labour's policies on public health
For almost two decades prior to the election of the New Labour government in 1997, inequalities in health were largely absent from the political debate in Britain. New Labour sought to bring inequalities, and the role of poverty as a 'root cause' of ill-health, back on to the public agenda. This paper analyses four key documents (Green and White Papers) laying out their proposals for public health. We explore the shifting emphasis on health inequ…
Please Help Me. My Baby Is Sick and Needs Medicine!”
Before coming to Eastern Africa, I was repeatedly warned about "culture shock." We have been fortunate to enjoy a fair amount of international travel and had lived for a time in Central America. I thought I was ready. Most of the transition has gone well. I am even learning a little Swahili. Against the advice of the Regional Security Officer for the US Embassy, we elected to not live in one of the secure compounds of clustered townhomes that hou…
The incidence of scurvy in sixteenth- and seventeenth- century voyages to the Canadian Arctic
Scurvy was a long-recognised problem amongst sailors, the cure and prevention ofwhich is sometimes incorrectly accredited to James Lind in the mid-eighteenth century. However, the therapeutic value of many antiscorbutic foods was discovered long before Lind's treatise on the scurvy was published in 1753, and problems with the deficiency continued well into the twentieth century. Through an examination of early Arctic exploration (1585–1632), the …

Théorie de la connaissance et théorie du parti chez Lénine
In the crisis that pervades Western Marxism, the question of the party and its relation to the masses occupies a central position. This article critically examines the Leninist conception of party, specifying those intrinsic limits which are linked to the theoretical and political context of the period in which it was elaborated. The authors raise the problem of the development of class consciousness and criticize the Leninist principle of the ex…
