‘Right support, right place, right time; right mess!’ Professionals' views on factors influencing the Send system and outcomes for children and families in England
The Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) system in England is under scrutiny. Critics highlight inefficient service design, poor implementation, and adversarial processes that cause family‐level distress. Unmet needs deprive children of learning, harming long‐term prospects. Legislative changes in 2014 mandated professionals from multiple sectors to produce integrated child‐centred support plans. Since then, little peer‐reviewed resear…
What Narcissists Look Like and Why It’s Important
Prior research investigating public perceptions of narcissistic individuals has relied on participant ratings of researcher-selected dimensions or character vignettes, limiting generalizability and ecological validity. Using reverse correlation—a bottom-up, participant-driven method—we examined how people visually represent narcissists, and the consequences of these representations on attributional perceptions (e.g., trust, leadership, attraction…
How Do People Conceptualize Narcissism and Narcissistic Individuals
INTRODUCTION: Although past decades have seen notable advances in the conceptualization and assessment of narcissism, scholarship examining lay conceptualizations of the construct remains limited. METHOD: We report two studies utilizing bottom-up, participant-driven methodologies to examine public understandings of narcissism and narcissistic individuals. In Study 1 (n = 202), we thematically analyzed layperson definitions of narcissism and compa…
Implementing Innovative Precepted Clinical Placements Through Partnership Between Academia and Practice
BACKGROUND: In Canada, instructor-led group models have dominated clinical learning delivery in nursing despite significant health care system changes over the past decade. Recent pressures on the health care system highlighted the need for innovative approaches to clinical learning. METHOD: To improve access to quality placements, members of the School of Nursing collaborated with practice partners to introduce a novel precepted placement model …

Agency in Family Planning
Improving women's agency in family planning is an integral component of empowerment, requiring culturally relevant, reliable, and valid measures. Measuring agency—action towards the achievement of self‐determined goals—is key to tracking progress as highlighted by its inclusion in the Sustainable Development Goals. Yet, agency measurement within low‐ and middle‐income contexts has all too often involved applying measures developed and tested in h…
Beyond Transactions
The co-authors have framed this article as an emergent learning journal of sorts, summarizing observations, findings, and key takeaways; walking the reader through the process, key tensions, and classic myths they identified; and highlighting principles they uncovered that underlie and lay the groundwork for imagining more equitable ways for evaluation consultants and foundations to act in relationships

Impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on mental health and viral suppression among persons living with HIV in western Washington
The COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing measures elevated stress levels globally, exacerbating mental health challenges for people with HIV (PWH). We examined the effect of COVID-19-related stress on mental health among PWH in western Washington, exploring whether social support and coping self-efficacy were protective. Data on COVID-19-related stress, mental health, social support, and coping self-efficacy were collected using online surveys…
Social inequity in administrative burdens
Administrative burdens in government programs are common and may exacerbate inequity in government service provision and access. Work requirements represent an onerous administrative burden as they entail substantial effort in complying and documenting compliance. We investigate whether state politics and race influence local Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) work requirement restrictiveness. To measure restrictiveness, we leverage…
The Mediation of Family Context and Youth Depressive Symptoms by Adolescent Emotion Regulation
During adolescence, young people develop crucial capacity for emotion regulation, and family context can be a risk or protective factor for adolescents developing affective disorders. We leveraged data from the Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey ( N = 7664) to propose adolescent emotion regulation as a mediator between family conflict, family protection, and adolescent depressive symptoms in the social development model. Latent moderated struct…
Interrogating nonsuicidal self-injury disorder through a feminist psychiatric disability theory framework
This article explores the proposed psychiatric diagnostic category of nonsuicidal self-injury disorder (NSSID) through the lens of feminist psychiatric disability theory. Mobilising insights from labelling theory's accounts of stigma and recovery, in conjunction with critical and feminist disability theory's attention to emotional and physical pain, we suggest that a feminist psychiatric disability approach to NSSID can illuminate the limits of a…
Neoliberalism and Mental Health Care in Ontario
In this paper, I offer a critical analysis of Ontario’s mental health strategy, “Roadmap to Wellness,” and the government’s investment in internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy (iCBT) programs as a frontline strategy to address the province’s mental health crisis. Though I acknowledge that publicly funded mental health care is a step in the right direction, I argue that the choice to provide cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) as the only f…
Effects of scent enrichment on behavioral and physiological indicators of stress in zoo primates
Captive breeding is vital for primate conservation, with modern zoos serving a crucial role in breeding populations of threatened species and educating the general public. However, captive populations can experience welfare issues that may also undermine their reproductive success. To enhance the wellbeing of endangered zoo primates, we conducted a study to assess the effects of a new scent enrichment program on captive red‐ruffed lemurs ( Vareci…

Baby steps
The nature and scale of the shocks to the demand for, and the supply of, home childcare during the COVID-19 pandemic provide a unique opportunity to increase our understanding of the division of home labour and the determinants of specialization within the household. We collected real-time data on daily lives to document the impact of measures to control COVID-19 on UK families with children under the age of 12. We document that these families ha…
Do psychopathic birds of a feather flock together? Psychopathic personality traits and romantic preferences
OBJECTIVE: The goal of the present studies was to investigate whether people are especially attracted to psychopathic traits, and whether there are individual differences in such attraction. METHOD: = 37; 56% female; 81% Caucasian, 10% African American, 4% Asian) reported on their own personality and constructed their ideal mate for a dating, short-term, and long-term relationship from a list of 70 characteristics drawn from well-validated criter…

I'm Not a Bloody Slave, I Get Paid and if I Don't Get Paid Then Nothing Happens
Sex work remains a contentious area of debate. Whether or not sex work is considered to be a form of labour is in itself contested. As discussion is often about rather than with sex workers, this article brings Sarah's experiences of being both a student and a sex worker, in two different areas of the UK, to centre stage. This candid account highlights the precarious and competitive nature of being self-employed within the current neoliberal clim…

Does gender matter? An analysis of men's and women's accounts of responding to symptoms of lung cancer
The perils of unitary models of the etiology of mental disorders—The response modulation hypothesis of psychopathy as a case example
We respond to Newman and Baskin-Sommers's (2016) criticisms of our meta-analytic and narrative synthesis of the response modulation hypothesis (RMH) of psychopathy (Smith & Lilienfeld, 2015). We concur with Newman and Baskin-Sommers that our results offer modest support for the RMH and that several of our arguments apply with equal force to rival etiological models of psychopathy. Nevertheless, we contend that Newman and Baskin-Sommers' criticism…

Psychopathy Deconstructed and Reconstructed
The psychopathy field has long been beset by confusion and contention regarding the boundaries and features of this chimerical condition. We propose that this disagreement stems largely from the historical separation between psychopathy and basic personality psychology. Using findings from a meta‐analysis of the correlations between the P sychopathy C hecklist‐ R evised ( PCL ‐ R ) and normal‐range personality traits as a launching point, we (a) …

Human Trafficking in Florida
Human trafficking is a pervasive issue in the United States (Florida State 2003:16). While an estimated 18,000-20,000 persons are trafficked across the nation's borders each year, this may be a dramatic underestimation of actual occurrence due to the hidden nature of human trafficking crimes and the fact that this number does not include domestic trafficking incidents (Florida State 2003:16). Federal anti-trafficking legislation defines "traffick…
The Double-Edged Sword of Grandiose Narcissism
Recent research and theorizing suggest that narcissism may predict both positive and negative leadership behaviors. We tested this hypothesis with data on the 42 U.S. presidents up to and including George W. Bush, using (a) expert-derived narcissism estimates, (b) independent historical surveys of presidential performance, and (c) largely or entirely objective indicators of presidential performance. Grandiose, but not vulnerable, narcissism was a…
Transdisciplinary Women's Health
Various women's health concerns (e.g., hormonal changes, cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, immune deficiencies, respiratory diseases, eating disorders, substance use/abuse, sexually transmitted infections, stress, poverty, poor nutrition, and early childhood caries) are associated with oral-systemic etiologies that can either cause or form as a result of poor oral health. Nonetheless, the intersections of biological, social…

Translating Using RE-AIM of a Falls Behavior Change Program Among an Assisted Living Population
A Matter of Balance/Volunteer Lay Leader model is an evidence-based program to change behavior to adopt falls prevention strategies. The purpose was to translate this program to assisted living communities. A single-arm intervention study was designed to assess for falls-related and physical performance measures. Forty-one residents, with a mean age of 87 years, were eligible for participation. The Falls Management Scale (P = .02) and the Physica…

The response modulation hypothesis of psychopathy
The causes of psychopathy, a condition characterized by interpersonal (e.g., superficial charm), affective (e.g., lack of empathy), and behavioral (e.g., impulsive actions) features, remain contested. The present review examines 1 of the most influential etiological models of psychopathy, the response modulation hypothesis (RMH), which proposes that psychopathic individuals exhibit difficulties in adjusting their behavior in the presence of a dom…
