Obscuring double vulnerability
How pollution is framed influences not only the research done on pollution but also the solutions sought by policy makers. Given that environmental policies are based on scientific research, it is important to not only understand how science is translated into policy, but also how conceptions of science influence problem formation and issue identification. In this article, through an investigation of Children’s Environmental Health and Disease Pr…
History of Risk Assessments of the Organophosphate Pesticide Chlorpyrifos at the US Environmental Protection Agency, 1980‒2024
This article examines the history of risk assessments of the organophosphate pesticide chlorpyrifos at the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), especially after a ban on household uses in 2000. Federal funding enabled more noncorporate and place-based scientific investigations of this pesticide’s harms, including child-cohort epidemiology of populations impacted through environmental injustices. This article argues, first, that their finding…
The Co-Development of Environmental Justice and Children’s Environmental Health at the EPA
Background: In the early 1990s, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was confronting multiple challenges to its regulatory decision making. Regulated industries and congressional supporters were criticizing the agency for overestimating risk and producing regulations that were too costly. At the same time, environmental and public health advocates were criticizing the agency for not doing enough to protect communities of color, low-income co…

The EPA’s Commitment to Children’s Environmental Health
Children’s environmental health (CEH) has a 25-year history at the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), during which the agency has advanced CEH through research, policy, and programs that address children’s special vulnerability to environmental harm. However, the Trump administration took many actions that weakened efforts to improve CEH. The actions included downgrading or ignoring CEH concerns in decision-making, defunding research, side…

Covid-19 Vaccination and Intention to Vaccinate Among a Sample of College Students in New Jersey
The Problem of Accountability
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been the epicenter of national environmental justice (EJ) work since President Bill Clinton signed Executive Order (EO) 12898 in 1994. Despite this continued focus, black, Indigenous, and people of color and low-income communities still bear the brunt of environmental harms. Although the EO began to institutionalize EJ work within EPA and across the federal government, implementing EPA's…
From ‘marginal to marginal’
How damaging was the Trump administration to environmental justice (EJ) efforts and policy? Since federal EJ oversight at the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is governed by executive order, rather than statute, approaches to it have varied by presidential administration. In this paper, we draw on interviews with current and recently retired EPA employees along with staffing and budget data, to examine how EJ has historically b…
The impact of the Covid-19 epidemic on mental health of undergraduate students in New Jersey, cross-sectional study
OBJECTIVE: The COVID-19 pandemic has been a period of upheaval for college students. The objective of this study was to assess the factors associated with the increased levels of mental health burden among a sample of undergraduate college students in Northern New Jersey, the region of the U.S. severely impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19. METHODS: College students (N = 162) enrolled in an introductory core curriculum course completed a cross-se…
Toward eliminating children’s lead exposure
Though the problem of childhood lead poisoning has been recognized for more than a century, it remains an important threat to children’s health and development. This comparative policy assessment examines and compares environmental and public health policies to prevent children’s exposure of three major lead producing countries. Germany, the USA and Australia were used to explore a range of approaches primarily at the national level to identify b…
Environmental justice analyses may hide inequalities in Indigenous people’s exposure to lead in Mount Isa, Queensland
Distributive environmental justice studies frequently identify how ethnic minorities and communities of low socio-economic status (SES) are disproportionately likely to live in areas with an elevated risk of exposure to pollution. Few distributive justice studies have been conducted in Australia to explore whether this relationship is relevant to rural mining communities. In the remote mining city of Mount Isa, studies have found higher geometric…
The Environmental Protection Agency in the Early Trump Administration
We explore and contextualize changes at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) over the first 6 months of the Trump administration, arguing that its pro-business direction is enabling a form of regulatory capture. We draw on news articles, public documents, and a rapid response, multisited interview study of current and retired EPA employees to (1) document changes associated with the new administration, (2) contextualize and compare the curre…
History of US Presidential Assaults on Modern Environmental Health Protection
The Trump administration has undertaken an assault on the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), an agency critical to environmental health. This assault has precedents in the administrations of Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. The early Reagan administration (1981–1983) launched an overt attack on the EPA, combining deregulation with budget and staff cuts, whereas the George W. Bush administration (2001–2008) adopted a subtler approach, undermi…
Environmental injustice in resource-rich Aboriginal Australia
This chapter explores the disproportionate impact mining has on Aboriginal Australians. Aboriginal Australians represent the world&s;s longest continuous living culture, and comprise about 2.5 per cent of the Australian population, although in Northern Australia, this percentage rises to about one third. Mining, and the processing of natural resources, carries social, environmental and health costs that are not fully accounted for by the mining c…
A Pilot Study of Children’s Blood Lead Levels in Mount Isa, Queensland
Mount Isa, Queensland, is one of three Australian cities with significant lead emissions due to nonferrous mining and smelting. Unlike the two other cities with lead mines or smelters, Mount Isa currently has no system of annual, systematic, community-wide blood lead level testing; and testing rates among Indigenous children are low. In previous screenings, this group of children has been shown to have higher average blood lead levels than non-In…
The Association between Environmental Lead Exposure and High School Educational Outcomes in Four Communities in New South Wales, Australia
The associations between environmental lead exposure and high school educational outcomes in four communities located in New South Wales, Australia, were examined in this ecological study. A mixed model analysis was performed to account for each school's results being more similar than results for other schools. The effect of environmental lead exposure on mean results for five educational outcomes was examined. 'Leaded' schools with more than fi…

Understanding the Experiences of Lesbian, Bisexual and Trans Survivors of Domestic Violence
LBT people face challenges identifying and responding to DV that are specific to their cultural context. Services for LBT DV survivors must be culturally appropriate and accessible. Community based solutions for addressing and preventing DV should be encouraged

Coping and Distress
OBJECTIVE: The study examined effects of weight change on coping and distress in severely obese subjects treated conventionally or undergoing weight reduction surgery. METHODS: We used the Obesity Coping (OC) scale measuring emotion-focused, maladaptive coping (Wishful Thinking) and problem-focused, adaptive coping (Social Trust and Fighting Spirit). We also used the Obesity Distress (OD) scale (Intrusion and Helplessness) and the Hospital Anxiet…

International quality of life assessment (Iqola) project
The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ-C30
BACKGROUND: In 1986, the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) initiated a research program to develop an integrated, modular approach for evaluating the quality of life of patients participating in international clinical trials. PURPOSE: We report here the results of an international field study of the practicality, reliability, and validity of the EORTC QLQ-C30, the current core questionnaire. The QLQ-C30 incorporat…
