Managing uncertainty
Purpose This article aims to explore how group-based assignments can contribute to education as sustainability. More specifically, it investigates how the tasks completed as part of group-based assignments contribute to the development of students’ interpersonal competencies in sustainability-focused education. Design/methodology/approach A case study methodology was used to analyse students’ responses to group-based assignments in three sustaina…
Studying local violence from outside the locality
Remote methods offer alternatives to deal with some of the operational and methodological challenges inherent to research in and about violent localities. This article reflects on the experience of conducting qualitative research on local violence in Guatemala, foregrounding the voice of local residents without having physical access to their neighbourhoods. The analysis covers the research cycle, from case selection, to interviewee recruitment, …
Somebody Should Do Something
A novel and scientific approach to creating transformative social change—and the surprising ways that each of us can help make a real difference. Changing the world is difficult. One reason is that the most important problems, like climate change, racism, and poverty, are structural. They emerge from our collective practices: laws, economies, history, culture, norms, and built environments. The dilemma is that there is no way to make structural c…

Change the People or Change the Policy? On the Moral Education of Antiracists
While those who take a "structuralist" approach to racial justice issues are right to call attention to the importance of social practices, laws, etc., they sometimes go too far by suggesting that antiracist efforts ought to focus on changing unjust social systems rather than changing individuals' minds. We argue that while the "either/or" thinking implied by this framing is intuitive and pervasive, it is misleading and self-undermining. We inste…
Self, interpersonal and organisational acts of compassion amongst nurses during times of acute stress
There is a global shortage of nurses and new strategies are required to recruit, support and retain this staff group. Organisational culture can have a significant impact on staff wellbeing and commitment. Recent years have seen attempts to foster a compassionate culture across healthcare systems. However, little is known about how nurses initiate self-care and how they feel cared for by their organisation, particularly in times of acute stress a…
A Cultural Species and its Cognitive Phenotypes
Local non-violent strategies amid Guatemala’s post-accord violence
The impact residents of violence-affected communities can have on addressing insecurity is underexplored, particularly amid criminal violence. In non-conflict contexts, can non-violent actions by committed individuals transform their violent environments given criminal groups’ social control and capacity to exert violence? Investigating two urban neighbourhoods in post-accord Guatemala, the article evidences how residents engage in violence disru…
Committing to change? A case study on volunteer engagement at a New Zealand urban farm
Urban agriculture is a promising avenue for food system change; however, projects often struggle with a lack of volunteers—limiting both their immediate goals and the broader movement-building to which many alternative food initiatives (AFIs) aspire. In this paper, I adopt a case study approach focusing on Farm X, an urban farm with a strong volunteer culture located in Tāmaki-Makaurau Auckland, New Zealand’s largest city. Drawing on a significan…
Norm-Based Governance for Severe Collective Action Problems
The world has surpassed three million deaths from COVID-19, and faces potentially catastrophic tipping points in the global climate system. Despite the urgency, governments have struggled to address either problem. In this paper, we argue that COVID-19 and anthropogenic climate change (ACC) are critical examples of an emerging type of governance challenge: severe collective action problems that require significant individual behavior change under…
Participation for a better future
Global systems of production and consumption are damaging the biosphere on which human life depends. We offer four vignettes from a variety of allied disciplines aimed at understanding vibrant “communities of action” for the environment in Aotearoa New Zealand. We outline how they help build, and build on, policies and institutions that regenerate people’s relationship to the land and protect natural ecosystems; and their struggles to create resi…
Individualism, Structuralism, and Climate Change
Scholars, journalists, and activists working on climate change often distinguish between “individual” and “structural” approaches to decarbonization. The former concern choices individuals can make to reduce their “personal carbon footprint” (e.g. eating less meat). The latter concern changes to institutions, laws, and other social structures. These two approaches are often framed as oppositional, representing a mutually exclusive forced choice b…
Anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, and professional quality of life among the hospital workforce during a global health pandemic
PURPOSE: Working in a hospital setting during a global health pandemic can lead to increased levels of anxiety, stress, burnout, and depression. Anecdotal evidence exists, but there is little research utilizing clinically validated tools to measure hospital staff psychological distress. METHODS: In Summer 2021, 771 hospital staff in North Dakota responded to an electronic survey collecting demographic data and employing validated behavioral healt…
What Is the Matter With Me?” or a “Badge of Honor”
It has long been known that nursing work is challenging and has the potential for negative impacts. During the COVID-19 pandemic most nurses' working landscapes altered dramatically and many faced unprecedented challenges. Resilience is a contested term that has been used with increasing prevalence in healthcare with health professionals encouraging a "tool-box" of stress management techniques and resilience-building skills. Drawing on narrative …
Interventions promoting employee “speaking-up” within healthcare workplaces
Comparison of Machine Learning Techniques for Mortality Prediction in a Prospective Cohort of Older Adults
As global demographics change, ageing is a global phenomenon which is increasingly of interest in our modern and rapidly changing society. Thus, the application of proper prognostic indices in clinical decisions regarding mortality prediction has assumed a significant importance for personalized risk management (i.e., identifying patients who are at high or low risk of death) and to help ensure effective healthcare services to patients. Consequen…
Minding the Gap
We argue that work on norms provides a way to move beyond debates between proponents of individualist and structuralist approaches to bias, oppression, and injustice. We briefly map out the geography of that debate before presenting Charlotte Witt's view, showing how her position, and the normative ascriptivism at its heart, seamlessly connects individuals to the social reality they inhabit. We then describe recent empirical work on the psycholog…
Untellable tales and uncertain futures
In this paper, we examine the use of creative methods for understanding the experience of young adults aged between 16 and 30 years over a year following a cancer diagnosis. Exploring the renegotiation of identity, the narrative, longitudinal research design of the study demonstrated the unfolding process of the narrative work between participants and researcher. We used a combination of visual, spoken and reflexive psychosocial approaches to und…
Studying Children's Experiences in Interactions With Clinicians
Increased emphasis on the child's voice and point of view in care and treatment has led to an expansion in the development of methods to access and identify their perspectives. Drawing on our experiences in a study of children with leukemia in hospital, this article explains the challenges and opportunities that arise in the use of five commonly used methods in a study of hospitalized children's experiences with health care professionals, includi…
The role of social capital, personal networks, and emergency responders in post-disaster recovery and resilience
Implicit Bias, Character, and Control
Our focus here is on whether, when influenced by implicit biases, those behavioural dispositions should be understood as being a part of that person’s character: whether they are part of the agent that can be morally evaluated.[4] We frame this issue in terms of control. If a state, process, or behaviour is not something that the agent can, in the relevant sense, control, then it is not something that counts as part of her character. A number of …
Against the Yuck Factor
The view we defend is that in virtue of its nature, disgust is not fit to do any moral or social work whatsoever, and that there are no defensible uses for disgust in legal or political institutions. We first describe our favoured empirical theory of the nature of disgust. Turning from descriptive to normative issues, we address the best arguments in favour of granting disgust the power to justify certain judgements, and to serve as a social tool…
Making Change
This paper identifies and describes two new norm-based strategies for institutional change to address intractable social problems. In both strategies, advocates “foreground” and criticize norms supporting the institutional status quo before either promoting an alternative existing norm via normative reframing of the issue, or creating and promoting an entirely new norm via normative innovation to build support for new institutional arrangements. …
Whistle-blowing and workplace culture in older peoples' care
Inquiries in the UK into mistreatment of older people by healthcare employees over the last 30 years have focused on introducing or supporting employee whistle-blowing. Although whistle-blowers have made an important contribution to patient safety it remains a controversial activity. The fate of whistle-blowers is bleak, often resulting in personal and professional sacrifices. Here we draw on the views of healthcare and social care employees work…

Racial Cognition and the Ethics of Implicit Bias
We first describe recent empirical research on racial cognition, particularly work on implicit racial biases that suggests they are widespread, that they can coexist with explicitly avowed anti-racist and tolerant attitudes, and that they influence behavior in a variety of subtle but troubling ways. We then consider a cluster of questions that the existence and character of implicit racial biases raise for moral theory. First, is it morally conde…

Changed Men
Prostate cancer is a uniquely problematic male health issue. Findings from a study employing an ethnographic approach are presented to describe the ways in which 14 men's lives were changed as a result of this experience. The theoretical basis of the study centered on embodiment to explore the personal impact of prostate cancer, its treatment, and its side effects. The findings suggest that cancer was experienced sequentially, beginning at the ti…

Mapping the Onset of Psychosis
Objective: Recognizing the prodrome of a first psychotic episode prospectively creates the opportunity of intervention, which could delay, ameliorate or even prevent onset. Valid criteria and a reliable methodology for identifying possible prodromes are needed. This paper describes an instrument, the Comprehensive Assessment of At-Risk Mental States (CAARMS), which has been designed for such a purpose. It has two functions: (i) to assess psychopa…

Yuck!
An exploration of the character and evolution of disgust and the role this emotion plays in our social and moral lives. People can be disgusted by the concrete and by the abstract—by an object they find physically repellent or by an ideology or value system they find morally abhorrent. Different things will disgust different people, depending on individual sensibilities or cultural backgrounds. In Yuck!, Daniel Kelly investigates the character an…
Making Race Out of Nothing
This article introduces the sort of solution that has typically been given to the race puzzle, and suggests some ways in which such a solution might be extended and improved. Racial categories are not biological groupings, but are rather social roles of some sort. The denial of the biological reality of race, and accounts of racial phenomena spelled out in terms of social roles, representations, and practices of racial classification, are explore…
