Accessible bus stops
Disadvantaged groups, including people with disabilities, older adults, and those facing situational mobility challenges, encounter barriers in bus stop environments that limit their mobility, health, and social equity. This study evaluates bus stop design guidelines from six countries, focusing on critical facility components such as wheelchair pads, tactile indicators, and seating. While most guidelines primarily address mobility and visual dis…
Documenting Environmental Knowledge in the Bahnar Language of Vietnam
Environmental knowledge encoded in Bahnar, an Indigenous language of Vietnam, is vital to the Bahnar community and contributes to broader understandings of biodiversity, climate resilience, and sustainable lifeways. We describe a collaborative approach to documenting Bahnar that integrates computational methods with ethnographic, lexicographic, and linguistic fieldwork. Because Bahnar knowledge is transmitted almost entirely through oral traditio…

The preferred spaces for leisure activities across all age groups in Seoul, South Korea, and the age inclusiveness of leisure spaces during the COVID-19 were investigated. The accessibility and distribution preferences for leisure facilities of different generations are investigated as aspects of leisure space age inclusiveness. One-way ANOVA, correlation analysis, boxplot analysis, and GIS mapping were applied. The cost, time, and importance of …
Public Health Communication Challenges in Eastern Europe and Central Asia
This scoping review examines public health communication across nine Eastern European and Central Asian states-Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan-highlighting how these systems have transitioned from Soviet-era legacies to contemporary practices. Eligibility criteria included the English- and Russian-language literature published from 1998 onwards, focusing on nine post-Soviet st…
Generative Artificial Intelligence in Tertiary Education
The emergence of generative artificial intelligence (AI) such as ChatGPT has sparked significant assessment concerns within tertiary education. Assessment concerns have largely revolved around academic integrity issues among students, such as plagiarism and cheating. Nonetheless, it is also critical to consider that generative AI models trained on information retrieved from the Internet could produce biased and discriminatory outputs, and halluci…

Sustainable, walkable cities for the elderly
This study investigates the relationship between the built environment and walking behavior for socially resilient urban design to promote walking in the aging population. We used a total of 117,259 GPS points and 160 person-day data points for elderly individuals living in Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea. The differences in the walking environments selected based on the walking purpose were analyzed using a random forest method, and the nonline…
Unveiling pedestrian injury risk factors through integration of urban contexts using multimodal deep learning
This study aimed to identify contributing risk factors for pedestrian injury by integrating socio-spatial and street-level contexts through multimodal deep learning to overcome the limitations of existing studies that only consider one type of data. To investigate how the two contexts assist in describing pedestrian injury risk, six multimodal deep learning models were established by varying the ratio integrating the two contexts. The developed m…
Defining migrants
In contemplating multilingualism and mobility in the 21st century, several dimensions warrant attention in the emerging field of migration linguistics. First is the move beyond migration to thinking about mobilities, in particular, the new mobilities paradigm in the social sciences which views human mobility as entailing a complex assemblage of movement, social imaginaries, and experience. Second, a study of the different waves of migration in a …

Beyond Co-location
The importance of communication among healthcare providers has been long recognized, and many healthcare organizations are implementing team-based care, with emphasis on staff communication. While previous empirical studies in various settings illustrate the role of built environments in user communication, there is a lack of quantified interpersonal spatial metrics to predict interactions. This study investigates how interpersonal spatial metric…
Development and Preliminary Validation of the Moral Reasoning Questionnaire for Secondary School Students
Moral reasoning is a key element of the Singapore Ministry of Education’s Character and Citizenship Education curriculum, and educators in Singapore are currently encouraged to facilitate growth in students’ moral reasoning based on the Stages of Moral Development established by Lawrence Kohlberg. To monitor students’ progress in this area, however, a validated test of moral reasoning is needed. A review of existing moral reasoning assessments in…
Targeting student learning needs
This article outlines the development and preliminary validation of the Learning Needs Questionnaire (LNQ). The LNQ is intended to provide information for optimising resources in establishing targeted academic support structures within institutions of higher learning with a focus on teaching. Owing in part to the lack of an instrument applicable to teaching universities with a diverse student population in Singapore, the LNQ sought to measure and…
Designing for Effective and Safe Multidisciplinary Primary Care Teamwork
Effective medical teamwork can improve the effectiveness and experience of care for staff and patients, including safety. Healthcare organizations, and especially primary care clinics, have sought to improve medical teamwork through improved layout and design, moving staff into shared multidisciplinary team rooms. While co-locating staff has been shown to increase communication, successful designs balance four teamwork needs: face-to-face communi…
It’s Difficult, There’s No Formula”
Generalists and specialists recognise the need for better communication with each other. Current care is characterised by silo-based working that ignores the contribution of other sectors. Failure to bridge this communication gap will result in people with stroke continuing to experience unmet stroke needs and fragmented care
TheMultilingual Citizen
In this ground-breaking collection of essays, the authors develop a notion of Linguistic Citizenship, highlighting practices whereby vulnerable speakers themselves exercise control over language, and detailing ways in which alternative voices can be inserted into processes and structures that often alienate those they were designed to support.
Coming of age, coming full circle

Effects of experiential-based videos in multi-disciplinary learning
This study examined the use of authentic experiential-based videos in self-explanation activities on 32 polytechnic students' learning and motivation, using a mixed method quasi-experimental design. The control group analysed a set of six pre-recorded videos of a subject performing the standing broad jump (SBJ). The experimental group captured videos of two subjects performing six variations of the SBJ. They then proceeded to analyse those videos…

English and Multilingualism in Singapore
To appreciate the situation of English in Singapore, one must recognize the multilingual context in which English has existed from the outset. Claimed by the British East India Company in 1819 as a nonsettler exploitation colony, Singapore saw both the introduction of English and the development of a multicultural, multilingual population that characterizes the nation today.
Beyond fear and loathing in SG
This paper considers the real mother tongues of Singapore, namely the Chinese ‘dialects’ and Singlish, the linguistic varieties which, respectively, arrived with the original immigrants to the rapidly developing British colony, and evolved in the dynamic multilingual ecology over the decades. Curiously these mother tongues have been regarded with fear and treated with loathing in the official language policies and accompanying prestige planning t…
Revisiting English prosody
Many New Englishes are spoken in what can often be considered multilingual contexts in which typologically diverse languages come into contact. In several Asian contexts, one typological feature that is prominent in the multilingual contact situation (the “ecology”) is tone. Given that tone is recognized as an areal feature and is acquired easily by languages in contact, the question that arises is how this is manifested in the prosody of these N…
Mergers and acquisitions
This paper presents a comprehensive account of the discourse particles in colloquial Singapore English (SE), considering their etymology in the light of both structure and sociohistory. While the object of many studies, mostly focusing on their meaning and use, and generally recognised as coming from Southern Chinese languages, the establishment of the origins and evolution of SE particles has not before been attempted. The thrust of this paper i…

Deconstructing Creole
Deconstructing Creole is a collection of studies aimed at critically assessing the idea of creole languages as a homogeneous structural type with shared and peculiar patterns of genesis. Following up on the critical discussion of notions of ‘creole exceptionalism’ as historical and ideological constructs, this volume tests the basic assumptions that underlie current attempts to present ‘creole structure’ as a special type, from typological as wel…

“Singlish”
The term “Singlish” figures prominently in local discussions of English in Singapore. But because the term has been used by different people to mean different things, this has resulted in (undetected) confusion, leading to discussions where not much progress is being made. In this paper, we first attempt to tear apart the various meanings of “Singlish”. We then discuss how these different uses of “Singlish”, and, by implication, its contrast with…
