Questionable Research Practices
The Methodology Corner has opted to call attention to questionable research practices in 2025. This first column of the year specifically looks at p -hacking. Studies subject to p-hacking may be harmful to the science of nursing education. This article provides recommendations for the nursing education community on how to help prevent p-hacking in the nursing literature. [ J Nurs Educ . 2025;64(3):211–212.]
S/kinship
In examining affective motivations and meanings associated with kin‐based tattooing, this article proposes a practice of ‘s/kinship’: the tangible inscription of relational personhood on the body. While research on the practice of Western tattooing has long been drawn into discourses of deviance and individual identity, little attention has been paid to the tattooing of social relations. Drawing on surveys and interview data, this article highlig…
Rubbish sick and the dancing devil
How are the historically fraught contexts of alterity that define postcolonial settings generated and negotiated in the context of medical uncertainty? What role does narrative play in the lived experience of such uncertainty and alterity? Focusing on a single "diagnostic odyssey" of childhood illness, this article examines the relationship between chronic uncertainty, alterity, and narrative sensemaking in the highly dynamic and pluralistic heal…

Women on wheels
This paper explores the question of how to promote cycling among women who face disproportionate mobility and accessibility barriers in rapidly urbanizing contexts by analyzing empirical findings from a multi‐method research study based in Solo, Indonesia. Building on and applying a combination of critical gender, geography, and development perspectives, it focuses on the perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors of women residing in low‐income neigh…
Behind the Mask
This new study of Menander casts fresh light not only on the techniques of the playwright but also on the literary and historical contexts of the plays. Menander (342/1-292/1 BCE) wrote over a hundred popular comedies, several of which were adapted by Plautus and Terence. Through them, he was a major influence on Shakespeare and Molière. However, his work survived only in excerpts and quotation until some significant texts reappeared in the ninet…
Drinking Money and Pulling Women
This paper examines aspects of gendered discourse around mobile phones in Vanuatu, focusing especially on the talk of high-ranking men from the northern Raga-speaking region of Pentecost Island. Rather than being restricted to the technologies or their direct capacities alone, it is argued that the local reception of new technologies such as mobile phones should be contextualised in terms of broader dialogues of change, and should also take into …
Sorcery and the Moral Economy of Agency
An ethnographic account of sorcery accusation, violence, and subsequent community discussion provides a basis to explore the ‘moral economy of agency’ that shapes expressions and interpretations of personhood in V anuatu. Mediated historically by transforming social, political, and economic circumstances, agency is demonstrated to be patterned according to culturally specific ontological and moral schemes. Key local categories of embodied personh…
Transforming Relations of Gender, Person, and Agency in Oceania
This introduction contextualises the nine papers that make up the special issue G ender and P erson in O ceania . Gender and personhood represent core orienting concepts within Pacific anthropology, from the pioneering work of M arilyn S trathern's G ender of the G ift to more recent scholarly attention to the impact of C hristianity and modernity. The papers in this volume offer a comparative and critical perspective on long‐standing ideas of ‘r…

France-Allemagne
Crise grecque, sauvetage de l'euro, innovations européennes, intervention en Libye : les désaccords entre Paris et Berlin se sont multipliés cette année. Cette difficile coordination relève moins d'un désaccord global sur l'avenir européen que d'une série de décalages ponctuels. Mais quand il faut coopérer plus étroitement, les particularités politiques et économiques se tendent et les malentendus se font plus criants
Janus and the siren's call
In the South Pacific Islands of Vanuatu, it is often said that 'Women can't drink kava because kava is a woman, and a woman can't take back a woman'. Such proscriptive reasoning relates to deeply rooted cosmological understandings of fertility, sacred power, and the nature of sexed bodies. They also evoke the fraught situation regarding gender relations and kava-drinking practice that has emerged through Vanuatu's transition from colonial outpost…
The Troubled Histories of a Stranger God
Ever the trickster, Tagaro appears and multiplies, disappears and reappears, across landscapes past and present in Vanuatu. His ancient adventures, deeds, and follies are deeply inscribed into the northern islands-on Maewo, Ambae, and Pentecost, especially-in rocks, caves, trees, and the shape of hills. In recent decades, Tagaro has journeyed more widely, by way of the conversations and texts of ni-Vanuatu religious scholars and early ethnologist…
Changing Pacific Masculinities
This introduction places the papers of this Special Issue within the context of a brief overview of previous literature on the subject of masculinities in the Pacific, and especially of Melanesia. The particular focus on Melanesia is discussed in terms of the colloquia from which the papers originated and is also linked to a discussion of the regionalism of applied social science in Australia. In acknowledging the current link between academic re…
The Social Life of Rights
In the northern Vanuatu town of Luganville a small group of men have responded to social and legal changes engendered by women's rights activists by forming a male support group called ‘Violence Against Men’. Members of this ‘backlash’ movement argue that the insidious promotion of Western‐style ‘women's rights’ is leading to discrimination against men in divorce proceedings, child custody battles, and in domestic violence and rape cases. They di…

Paths of Relationship, Spirals of Exchange
In Stone Men of Malekula: Vao (1942), a text that was published more than twenty‐five years after he carried out long‐term fieldwork in Vanuatu, John Layard introduced a new technique for rendering kinship data in diagrammatic form. Inspired in part by Gregory Bateson, his ‘circular technique’ was derived from diagrams drawn up according to the genealogical method, and was designed to overcome certain structural problems identified within these. …

The Story of Jimmy
The Story of Jimmy is a frequently told oral‐historical account of ‘first contact’ from North Pentecost, Vanuatu. It describes the adventures of a group of ni‐Vanuatu plantation labourers who escape from Fiji by hijacking a ship and navigate a return to their home islands in Vanuatu. Central to the story is a young white man, known simply as Jimmy. Unwittingly forced to make the journey with them, and before they are all finally shipwrecked on th…
The Isle of Portland
The Isle of Portland (Dorset, England) was part of a trading system that involved the circulation of goods in and across the English Channel during the first century BC. This paper assesses the suitability of Portland as an Iron Age port‐of‐trade, focuses on the exotics found there and discusses evidence for its hill‐fort, which was destroyed in the middle of the nineteenth century

Late Iron Age Ballast‐Quarries at Hengistbury Head, Dorset
During excavations at Hengistbury Head between 1979 and 1984 certain Late Iron Age features, described as ‘quarry hollows’ and ‘scoops’, were discovered along the shoreline. They are the result of gravel extraction, which, it is argued, was carried out in order to supply ballast for ships plying their trade across the English Channel during the first half of the first century BC. Accordingly, these features represent the first on‐shore archaeolog…
Kalam
William Lane Craig has given an extended defence of the following version of the Cosmological Argument for the existence of God:Since everything that begins to exist has a cause of its existence, and since the universe began to exist, we conclude, therefore, that the universe has a cause of its existence. We ought to ponder long and hard over this truly remarkable conclusion, for it means that transcending the entire universe there exists a cause…

Eskimo Answers to an Eighteenth Century Questionnaire

Henry Peach Robinson and Victorian theory
Any history that treats 19th-century photography mentions the work of H. P. Robinson (1830–1901). He is acknowledged to be a foremost practitioner of picture making by rule and combination. His Fading Away (1858) in which a young girl is seen on her deathbed, is as well known as Reijlander's Two Ways of Life (1857) and, at the time, excited much controversy for its ‘morbid sentiment’
An analysis of economic costs associated with an outbreak of typhoid fever
We examined the costs of a typhoid fever outbreak caused by exposures to contaminated food over a 47-day period at a restaurant. For the 49 respondents, the patient-related costs (+215,548) were primarily medical expenses (+183,902) and lost income or productivity (+28,603). The estimated patient-related costs for all 80 outbreak-associated cases was +351,920. Had contaminated food continued to be served, the prevention-related costs (+36,500) wo…
