Gendered marketing on takeaway alcohol products in Australia
Alcohol companies invest heavily in marketing to shape consumer perceptions of what drinking means in social contexts. An international literature documents the way gendered expectations and associations are used in marketing campaigns to encourage women to drink alcohol. Our paper contributes new insight about gendered marketing on takeaway products in alcohol retail outlets with a particular focus on gendered affective (feeling) expectations an…
Risk, responsibility and negative responses
Childhood vaccination programmes have benefits that far outweigh risks, in public health terms. However, some parents decide not to immunise their children. This paper explores the ways in which such parents talk about the perceived risks and benefits incurred by vaccinating (or not vaccinating) their children. Between 2013 and 2016, we undertook 29 in-depth interviews with non-vaccinating and/or ‘vaccine hesitant’ parents in Fremantle, Western A…
Is resilience relevant to smoking abstinence for Indigenous Australians?
The prevalence rate of tobacco smoking remains high for Australian Indigenous people despite declining rates in other Australian populations. Given many Indigenous Australians continue to experience a range of social and economic structural problems, stress could be a significant contributing factor to preventing smoking abstinence. The reasons why some Indigenous people have remained resilient to stressful adverse conditions, and not rely on smo…
Multiple and concurrent sexual partnerships among men who have sex with men in Viet Nam
Men who have sex with men (MSM) are one of the largest HIV risk groups in Viet Nam and have been understudied. Sexual concurrency and multiple sex partnerships may contribute to high HIV incidence among MSM in Viet Nam. Limited information is available on concurrency and multiple sexual partnerships among MSM in Viet Nam or on the extent to which this population engages in concurrent and multiple unprotected anal intercourse. Data are from a self…
Are GP practice prescribing rates for coronary heart disease drugs equitable? A cross sectional analysis in four primary care trusts in England
Study objective: To analyse the associations between proxies of healthcare need and GP practice prescribing rates for five major coronary heart disease (CHD) drug groups. Design: Cross sectional secondary analysis. Setting: Four primary care trusts (PCTs 1–4) in the north west of England, encompassing 132 GP practices. Results: Prescribing rates were generally positively associated with the percentage of patients aged 55–74 years and PASS-PUs (re…
Appropriateness measurement
Treatment of elderly adults with impaired hearing
The general relationship between treatment and response is illustrated with reference to the response of elderly people to rehabilitation treatment after a hearing aid has been prescribed. The evidence of the effects of treatment is reviewed and a tentative empirical relationship is proposed between treatment input (therapist time) and effect (hours of use of the hearing aids). This illustrates a rapid improvement in the effect of treatment for u…
