Community-Based Approaches to Developing a Community-Level Intervention to Improve Black Maternal and Infant Health
Children’s Acquisition of Morphosyntactic Variation
We begin by thanking the commentators for their insightful and critical commentaries on our keynote article Children’s Acquisition of Morphosyntactic Variation. In the keynote article, we proposed
Agents of the Settler State
This essay examines a conjugal migration program at the Iwahig Penal Colony in the early twentieth-century Philippines that was designed by American colonial administrators and built by incarcerated Filipino men. The penal colony was part of a settler colonial project that was pushing to transform Indigenous spaces into terrains primed for the influx of land-seeking migrants from Hispanicized islands. Before the prison was opened, Indigenous Tagb…

Agreeing when to disagree
We characterized the patterns of agreement variation and consistency in three corpora of child and child-directed US English to better understand preschoolers’ input and to compare preschoolers’ own agreement production. We examined sentences with third-person subjects and tensed forms of be in two large single-family corpora and one cross-sectional corpus collected during a Search-and-Find activity. Caregivers’ agreement variation consistently r…
Linguistic Variation in the Acquisition of Morphosyntax
Research in language development has only recently begun to focus on the inherent variability of language. Previous studies have explored at what age children begin to produce variable linguistic forms and how these forms progress through development. While children produce adult-like variation early on, some variable forms take longer to acquire than others do. The current study builds on this previous research using naturalistic corpus data to …
Children’s Acquisition of Morphosyntactic Variation
This article presents a developmental pathway for the acquisition of morphosyntactic variation. Although there is abundant evidence that morphosyntactic variation is pervasive among adults, much less is known about how children acquire such variation. The literature thus far indicates that the pathway of development involves first producing only one of the variable forms (Step 1), producing both forms but in mutually-exclusive contexts (Step 2), …

Copula Choice is Associated with Discourse Integration Skills in Spanish-Speaking Children
The present study investigates the relationship between discourse integration skills and Spanish copula choice in monolingual Chilean Spanish-speaking children. Previous research has focused on determining the age at which children associate estar to a transitory property and ser to an inherent property (Holtheuer, Carolina. 2012. Spanish-speaking children do not always overuse estar. Revista Signos 45(78). 3–19, Holtheuer, Carolina & Johanna Ren…
I Understand What They’re Going through”
Traditional service-learning pedagogy assumes that learning occurs when contact between relatively advantaged students and a relatively disadvantaged service population reduces prejudice. However, little is known about how students whose backgrounds are similar to the populations they serve process this learning experience. This study explores the connections between socioeconomic status and learning trajectories within service-learning. Students…
Building New York State Centers of Excellence in Children’s Environmental Health
Public health programs may be seriously affected in periods of federal retrenchment. During these times, state-based strategies provide an alternate pathway for advancing public health. A 12-year campaign to secure state support for a network of Centers of Excellence in Children’s Environmental Health (CEH) promoting health of children across New York State is described. It was driven by rising rates of asthma, birth defects, developmental disord…
Design Strategies for the Eternal Reoccurrence of the New
In response to increasing resource pressures and environmental degradation in relation to the fashion industry, the body of academic work on extending garment lifetimes is growing steadily. Yet there is a lack of knowledge regarding how design strategies for longevity play out in practice. This research aims to bridge that gap by drawing on both theoretical knowledge and empirical data from three case studies conducted in UK-based small and mediu…
Building and executing a research agenda toward conducting implementation science in medical education
IS can act as both a driver and a model for educational research to ensure that best educational practices are easier and faster to implement widely
Breast Cancer and the Environment
Addressing the unequal burden of environmental risks to health in communities of color is an important goal of environmental health scientists and advocates. The Breast Cancer and the Environment Research Program (BCERP) is a long term initiative studying how early life exposures to endocrine disrupting chemicals may increase a woman's risk for breast cancer. Breast cancer mortality rates among African American women are higher than Caucasian wom…

Spanish-speaking children's use of verbal inflection in comprehension
Acquisition of variable rules
This paper examines the acquisition of the variable rules constraining Spanish syllable-final /s/-lenition in Chilean Spanish–speaking children, and whether adult-to-adult speech differs from child-directed speech in the production of s-lenition. The data of 10 children (ages 2;04–5;09) and their caregivers is presented. Tokens of syllable final /s/ were coded for pronunciation and a variable-rule analysis examining the effect of various linguist…

Assessing Medicai Students’, Residents’, and the Public’s Perceptions of the Uses of Personal Digital Assistants
Although medical schools are encouraging the use of personal digital assistants (PDAs), there have been few investigations of attitudes toward their use by students or residents and only one investigation of the public's attitude toward their use by physicians. In 2006, the University of Louisville School of Medicine surveyed 121 third- and fourth-year medical students, 53 residents, and 51 members of the non-medical public about their attitudes …

Public Appointments
The paper draws on exploratory research on non-executives of NHS Health Boards in Scotland. The research investigated the gender imbalance which exists in public appointments and whether this results in a gendered phenomenon of health policy. The analysis of public appointments to NHS Scotland Health Boards reveals a disproportionate representation of men at this strategic policy level and this is seen as having key implications for the formulati…
The Relationship between Intention to Emigrate and Organisational Commitment
South Africa is currently experiencing one of the highest periods of emigration in its history. However, this phenomenon has received little research attention. This study examined the issue of emigration from an organisational psychology perspective by exploring the relationship between intention to emigrate and organisational commitment. To achieve this an Intention to Emigrate scale was developed in order to assess individuals' behavioural int…
Do national levels of individualism and internal locus of control relate to well‐being
Data were collected from managers in 24 nations/territories on work locus of control (LOC), individualism–collectivism (I–C), and well‐being (job satisfaction, absence of psychological strain, and absence of physical strain). There were significant mean differences across samples on all five of these measures, and consistent with our hypothesis, at the ecological or sample mean level well‐being was associated with an internal locus of control.

U.S. Public Relations History
This analysis of the literature on public relations history indicates that the field has been dominated by a business history approach. Most scholars have studied public relations in its corporate context, and most have utilized business history’s dominant paradigm, which calls for a general theory of PR history based on the review of a large number of case histories. But the business history frame is both flawed and inadequate for a complete und…
Patterns of condom use among adolescents
OBJECTIVES: The association between the timing of discussions about condoms between mother and adolescent and adolescents' condom use during their first and subsequent sexual encounters was examined. METHODS: Sexually active adolescents reported whether and when they discussed condoms with their mother and answered questions about their own condom use. RESULTS: Mother-adolescent discussions about condoms that occurred prior to sexual debut were s…

Students Classified As Learning Disabled and Non‐Learning Disabled
Proponents of the concept of learning disabilities (LD) assume that students classified as LD and those with IQ‐achievement discrepancies have more severe native language and foreign language learning problems than students not classified as LD. Two studies that included high school students classified as “at‐risk” for learning a foreign language (FL) investigated these assumptions. The first study compared “at‐risk” students classified as learni…

Air Power Is Peace Power” The Aircraft Industry's Campaign for Public and Political Support, 1943–1949
An analysis of the aircraft industry's public relations campaign suggests that individuals' thoughts and feelings about airplanes and atomic weapons, domestic politics, and international events had greater influence on public opinion and political action than the PR program. However, the industry's public relations program did bring together many groups interested in air power. By linking these groups and capitalizing on the domestic and internat…

Symptom Management Outcomes
OBJECTIVES: Symptom management is increasingly recognized as a critical element of patient care, particularly in managing chronic illness. However, research on outcomes related to symptom management is in its infancy, except for the symptom of pain. This symptom was therefore chosen as a prototype to review the state of the science regarding relations between organizational variables and symptom management outcomes and to illustrate the issues re…
