Smartphone GPS-Based Exposure to Greenspace and Walkability and Accelerometer-Assessed Physical Activity During Pregnancy and Early Postpartum—Evidence from the Madres Cohort
A growing number of studies have associated walkability and greenspace exposure with greater physical activity (PA) in women during pregnancy. However, most studies have focused on examining women's residential environments and neglected exposure in locations outside the home neighborhood. Using 350 person-days (N = 55 participants) of smartphone global positioning system (GPS) location and accelerometer data collected during the first and third …
Chinese Americans in the Heartland
Huping Ling's Chinese Americans in the Heartland: Migration, Work, and Community extends the analysis of Chinese American communities beyond the usual coverage of coastal experiences with insightful investigations into the history of Chinatowns in St. Louis, Missouri, and Chicago, Illinois. The work is well-researched and grounded in traditional sources such as census reports, archival records, memoirs, archeological studies, and court documents.…

An Eco-linguistic Study on Linguistic Realizations and Metaphors of Marbija Ceremony in the Simalungun Ethnic Community in Indonesia
Marbija is a ceremony performed by the Simalungun ethnic community since the ancient times to ascertain if someone is telling the truth or not. In it, linguistic realizations and metaphor describe the relationship between people and their environment. This has made the people in Indonesia become aware that this phenomenon is inseparable from the culture that exists within the community itself. This study investigates linguistic realizations and m…

The COVID-19 pandemic has sped up the pace of the digital transition process in which we have been immersed.In a context of generalized lockdown, our organizations have been forced to go digital and many of the activities social workers perform must now be done remotely.As a result, e-social work, or digital social work, has gone from being an emerging specialization to a critical specialty across organizations and activities.In this article, we …
The gamblification of digital games
The consumption of digital games has become increasingly "gamblified" (Gainsbury et al, 2015; Zanescu et al, 2020) in recent years. Due to the changes in media landscape such as the development of new forms of gambling via the Internet and mobile phones, consumers can now play games and gamble in real-time and from almost any location (Newall et al, 2019; King et al, 2010; Griffiths & Parke, 2010). The growing intersections between digital games,…
Utilization of SDS-Page and histochemistry for pharmacognostical studies on selected mangroves and halophytes from the Pichavaram, South India
Beyond the 'All Seeing Eye
This paper draws on ethnographic data about Filipino migrant domestic workers' perceptions of and responses to the use of surveillance cameras in the home to intervene in recent debates about surveillance, care and social control. On the one hand, our participants disclose what following Gary Marx (1981) we refer to as the gendered ironies of care and control. Digital surveillance practices in the home not only produce tactics for evading control…
Care and Control in Asian Migrations
This special issue takes the relationship between care and control as a starting point for ethnographically approaching the dynamics of Asian migrations. The pairing of care and control offers an entry-point for describing how migration takes shape through the historical development of entangled relationships-ranging from the supportive to the coercive-rather than strictly through dyadic relationships, social networks, structural forces, or as an…

Asthma management in British South Asian children
Healthcare systems have a responsibility to develop services that are sensitive and appropriate to the needs of their communities. In South Asian communities, further efforts are required to raise awareness of symptoms and effectively communicate how, when and where to seek help for children. There is a need for improved diagnosis and consistent, effectively communicated information, especially regarding medication. Parents made several suggestio…
Balancing satisfaction and stress
Since the role of carers is clearly indispensable in the successful rehabilitation of survivors, it is vital to ensure that their well-being is not undermined by a lack of information and training, and that their need for professional support is prioritised
Surveillance, Pastoral Power and Embodied Infrastructures of Care among Migrant Filipino Muslims in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Surveillance features routinely in discussions of migration in terms of boundary crossing and border policing; that is, of how states and state-like entities seek to limit and control movement, often at a distance. What is less frequently examined is how migrants who are excluded from care by forms of selective non/surveillance have to rely on their own informal social networks, referred to here as embodied infrastructures, to provide both care a…
Gendering pastoral power
This article draws on Foucault’s concept of pastoral power to understand Filipino men’s care work and the making of migrant masculinities in Saudi Arabia. Feminist scholars have indicated the gendered nature of pastoral power and emphasized what Young refers to as the ‘logic of masculinist protection’ that characterizes the contemporary security state. However, the notion of pastoral power invites further consideration of the taken for granted cu…

The Aesthetics of Diaspora in Colonial Fields of Power
This paper explores the conditions of cultural production that enabled the invention of the Philippine nation from afar among literary and artistic diasporan elites in the metropolitan centres of Europe in the late nineteenth century. I draw together Bourdieu's analysis of the creation of the autonomous field of cultural production and Anderson's analysis of the origins of nationalism to demonstrate how affective and aesthetic investments in art …
Queer Asian Subjects
This special issue of Asian Studies Review explores comparatively the production and transformation of gender and sexual subjectivities across and beyond South and Southeast Asia. More specifically, papers in this special issue disclose the complex intersections of ethnicity, race, class, gender, religion and nationality through which sexual subjectivities are formed and subject positions inhabited within and across these regions. By tracing the …

World Youth Day
World Youth Day (WYD) is a gathering of Catholic youth from around the globe. This article focuses on how WYD can be interpreted as a socio-historical event. The ubiquitous use of the word 'pilgrimage' with reference to WYD immediately catches the attention; however, the lack of established history or pilgrimage sites calls this appellation into question. As sociological data on WYD are becoming available, theories about the purposes and function…
P48 Modifying health promotion interventions for ethnic minority groups
Background Some UK ethnic minority groups experience disproportionate levels of morbidity and mortality when compared with the majority White population. For these populations, access to and use of health promotion interventions may be limited. Adaptation of smoking cessation, physical activity and nutrition interventions of proven effectiveness for the majority population could represent an efficient strategy for reducing persistent health inequ…
P49 Modifying health promotion interventions for ethnic minority groups
Background Health promotion interventions have proved to be cost-effective strategies to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with smoking, physical inactivity and poor diet in the general population. Some ethnic minority groups are disproportionately affected by these lifestyle factors, and existing evidence suggests that adapting evidence-based health promotion interventions for these populations may prove to be an effective strategy to ta…

Embodied Knowledge
The study of teachers' personal practical knowledge is an emerging orientation that focuses on the way teachers' understanding of their world affects the way they structure classroom experience and interact with students, parents, colleagues, and administrators. I argue that several recent articles on this topic are developing greatly enriched models of cognition, meaning, understanding, and knowledge. These models emphasize nonpropositional, pre…

First-year impact of the 1989 California cigarette tax increase on cigarette consumption
We employed a time series design to evaluate the impact of the 1989 California cigarette tax increase on cigarette consumption in California. Adult per capita consumption data from 1980 to 1990 were analyzed for California and the United States. Trend data indicated a sharp drop in California cigarette consumption coincident with the tax increase. Time-series regression analyses support this observation, and suggest that a 5% to 7% decline in con…

The Liberal Party and the Navy League in Britain before the Great War
The decade preceding the outbreak of the First World War saw Great Britain engaged in a naval arms race of unprecedented expense against the German empire. The spiralling cost of armaments proved politically problematic for a Liberal ministry ostensibly committed to ‘Peace, Retrenchment, and Reform’. Outside the government, however, an organized navalist lobby agitated enthusiastically for ever greater levels of defence preparedness. Groups such …
Solidarity put to the test. Health and social care in the UK
As welfare states experience challenges from ideological and funding sources, the position of the United Kingdom represents an important case study. Apparently under severe attack for its perceived failures to deliver efficiency, effectiveness and social justice, there remains a continued high level of public support for `nationalised' health and social care. The paper explores the nature of the fissures in the systems and the data which indicate…
Recurrent tuberculosis
In October 1983, a retrospective survey was initiated to determine if patients reported to the Centers for Disease Control as having recurrent tuberculosis truly had recurrent disease and, if so, why they had developed tuberculosis again. Twenty-three health jurisdictions provided information on 800 patients diagnosed as having recurrent tuberculosis during 1981 and 1982. We found that 199 (25 per cent) of the cases did not meet the criteria for …

A guide to the literature on aggressive behavior
Articles relating t o the general problem area of aggression are scattered throughout the whole range of specialized journals in fields from "A for anatomy" t o "Z for Zoology." It is virtually impossible for a single individual to find all the articles which may bear on his particular interest. Information overload is, of course, a problem. However, an even greater problem is matching the interesting article with the interested reader. Aggressiv…

An Empirical Update on the Product-Cycle Explanation and Branch-Plant Location in the Nonmetropolitan US South
In this study an empirically based examination of the importance of the labor environment, defined in terms of late-stage product-cycle expectations, to the location of branch plants in the nonmetropolitan US South is presented. The data were derived from a questionnaire-based survey of selected branch-plant managers in eight southern states. The findings suggest that labor factors have been important to the location of branch plants, and that th…

HIV follow-up care at a London teaching hospital
Counselling around all stages of HIV infection is important for those infected and affected with HIV disease. Partner notification may promote safer sexual practices and increase HIV-related social support which might in turn prompt the psychological adjustment to a terminal illness. This paper describes the counselling service used at the Royal Free Hospital's HIV Unit and explores the notification patterns of an HIV diagnosis to family, partner…

Drinking in second generation black and asian communities in the english midlands
