Australian and UK Perspectives on Social Prescribing Implementation Research
There has been a rapid increase in the delivery of social prescribing globally in recent years. However, a lack of theoretical framework, the diversity of social prescribing interventions and outcome measures, a lack of ongoing resources to provide services equitably and a lack of coordinated research agenda make it challenging for practitioners to know how best to put social prescribing into practice. This paper summarises perspectives from 29 U…
Developing a Consensus‐Based Nature Prescribing Framework for Australian Healthcare
Background: With growing interest in nature‐based interventions for health, establishing implementation frameworks for prescribing nature in diverse settings is crucial. This study aims to develop and validate a nature prescribing framework tailored for the Australian healthcare context, employing a Delphi methodology to harness expert consensus. Methods: The study utilised a two‐round Delphi technique to gather insights from experts across vario…
Anticipating futures
Businesses, planners and policy makers must make decisions that influence a future about which they have incomplete knowledge. Whilst knowing the future may be illusive, the capacity to adapt as required, is desirable for both organisations and society. We examine what different perspectives can offer, considering how empirical-analytical (e.g., modelling, data), narrative-experiential (e.g., fiction, history, gaming), and socio-technological (e.…
More Process, Less Product
In their introduction to the 2014 edited volume African Studies in the Digital Age, Terry Barringer and Marion Wallace reflect on the transformative impact of digitisation on both access to and the study of African collections.These transformations, they argue, had not all been positive: imbalances in training and wealth had deepened geographical inequalities in collection development; commercial actors had prioritised collections in and from the…
Providing a Layman's Guide to the Scheme’
Between the 1960s and early-1980s the museum sector in the United Kingdom (UK) was rapidly professionalised and systematised. A crucial moment in this transition was the creation in 1967 of the Information Retrieval Group of the Museums Association (IRGMA), and the subsequent launch of its system for the machine encoding and communication of museum catalogue records. The rise of IRGMA marked an inflection point in museological practice and the no…
Detecting and Characterising Transmission from Legacy Collection Catalogues
Catalogue records underpin the audit, curatorial, and public access functions of collecting institutions. And they are relied upon by many humanities researchers, and increasingly those looking to analyse collection holdings at scale. However, far from being a neutral record of collection holdings, catalogues are the products of cataloguing labour, often spanning many decades, and so are subject to various biases and inequities. Understanding how…

United States Recognizes Morocco's Sovereignty Over Western Sahara
On December 10, 2020, President Donald J. Trump reversed decades of U.S. policy by announcing that the United States would recognize Moroccan sovereignty over Western Sahara as part of a deal in which Morocco would normalize relations with Israel. Despite a 1991 UN truce and continued calls by the UN Security Council for Morocco and the Polisario Front to reach a mutually agreeable solution, neither side has relinquished its claim of sovereignty …
Stepped-Wedge Cluster Randomised Trial of Social Prescribing of Forest Therapy for Quality of Life and Biopsychosocial Wellbeing in Community-Living Australian Adults with Mental Illness
Social Prescribing (SP) involves linking individuals with mental illness to local health and welfare services to improve quality of life (QoL) and biopsychosocial wellbeing. SP programs address psychosocial wellbeing by linking individuals to group activities. Forest Therapy (FT) is a group nature walk with prescribed activities that promote mindfulness, relaxation, and shared experience. Improvements in psychological and physical wellbeing have …

Computing and the use of digital sources and resources is an everyday and essential practice in current academic scholarship. The present article gives a concise overview of approaches and methods within digital historical scholarship, focusing on the question ‘How have the digital humanities evolved and what has that evolution brought to historical scholarship?’ We begin by discussing techniques in which data are generated and machine searchable…
Social Prescribing for Individuals Living with Mental Illness in an Australian Community Setting
Social prescribing, also known as "community referral", is a means of referring individuals living in the community to existing local non-clinical health, welfare, and social support services. International evidence demonstrates that social prescribing improves biopsychosocial quality of life, and burden on health services. Australia's first social prescribing pilot program for individuals with mental illness (mood and psychotic spectrum disorder…
Curatorial labour, voice and legacy
Between 1930 and 1954 Mary Dorothy George wrote catalogue entries for 12,553 'Golden Age' satirical prints, entries that have become foundational to the historiography of British History in the long eighteenth century. This article examines George as a curatorial voice, an interlocutor between the archived past and her readers. It examines the labour processes that produced George's contributions to the British Museum's Catalogue of Political and…
Investigating Curatorial Voice with Corpus Linguistic Techniques
We seek to demonstrate how corpus linguistic techniques can facilitate a comprehensive account of curatorial voice in a large digitised museum catalogue and hence leverage its value as a resource for generating new knowledge about: curatorial practice; the historical and cultural contexts of curation; and, the content of collections. We worked with 1.1 million words written by the historian M. Dorothy George between 1930 and 1954 to describe 9330…

While the advent of the personal computer in 1990s Britain has been well documented by historians of computing and technology, there remains little research on the everyday experience of this phenomenon. In this article, we use material held in The Mass Observation Project (MOP) archive to explore the way men and women in late-modern Britain experienced and understood the changes brought about by personal computing.

A historiographic review of health education interventions and the microcomputer
Re-orienting models of care
Introduction: The life expectancy for people who experience mental illness is between 10-32 years less than the general population. Untreated metabolic syndrome is the major contributing factor.Australia’s federally funded universal health system ‘Medicare’ does not allow for the provision of primary health care services within State funded services. Private primary health services model design may not meet the needs of people who experience seve…
Through the Looking Glass
Despite the growing interest in microaggression theory (Sue et al. ), little research has been conducted on it through a sociological lens. In fact, the psychological research that does exist has been from the United States (Constantine ; Mercer et al. ; Ong et al. ; Sue et al. ) and Canada (Hernandez ; Houshmand ), focusing primarily on minorities. One area that remains unexplored is white observations of racism. This is especially relevant give…
The Rise and Fall of Radical Westminster, 1780–1890
In the eleven pages which constitute his 'Commencement', Marc Baer reveals the ambitious task facing any biographer of Westminster. In order to understand why what was to late-Georgians 'Radical Westminster' became by the 1880s a bellwether of conservatism, why the 'glue which held together the culture of elections' (p. 10) changed so strikingly, a biographer of Westminster needs not only a command of chronological scope – 1780-1890 in this case …
Unwelcoming communities
While studies of racism have focused primarily on large urban centres, its effect on young visible minorities living in smaller centres has only recently been given increased attention. Using data collected from over 850 surveys, this article will analyse junior and senior high school students’ observations of racism. The results suggest that youth living in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada believe that racism is more as a problem at…

A N ewfoundland Ethnicity? The Political Implications of Post‐Confederation Nationalism in N ewfoundland
Ethnicity is very much at the core of the individual and has been known to constitute the basis of nationalisms. Loosely speaking, an ethnic group refers to those who identify with one another through a number of shared characteristics (e.g. culture, language, or religion). Based on this, scholars would agree that most Quebeckers meet the criteria – but what about Newfoundlanders? Does calling oneself a ‘ N ewfoundlander’ invoke a specific set of…

Just Kids? Peer Racism in a Predominantly White City
This article examines the eff ects of racialized name-calling on a group of twelve visible minority refugee youth from Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Through one-on-one in-depth interviews, the author discusses their experiences in order to better understand how this important group of adolescents conceptualizes, constructs, and copes with racism while living in a highly homogeneous white Canadian city. The author concludes by noting that the…

The debate surrounding Newfoundland patriotism is one that few have studied, especially with regard to its political implications. While some scholars would argue that the post-Confederation Newfoundland identity is based on a historical nationalist sentiment, others would suggest that it is instead based in a deep-seeded sense of patriotism. This article explores the role of nepotism, reciprocity, and collective goods and entities in promoting p…
Effect of the Group on Authoritarian and Non-Authoritarian Persons
Differential effects of group pressure upon subjects with authoritarian and those with non-authoritarian personalities were measured by subjecting individuals to three laboratory experiments in authokinesis. They were first tested alone to establish individual norms, then in small-group situations designed to exert social pressure toward extreme judgments, and, finally, individually again. Both groups were influenced significantly by the group pr…
