  • Moving from barriers to collaborative action

    Open Access•Ramón Spaaij, Fiona Mclachlan et al.•ARTICLE•Qualitative Research in Sport and…•2026

    There is a need to move from identifying and understanding the barriers and facilitators to participation in sport experienced by marginalised populations to collaborative action towards social change. This paper examines how action research grounded in sustained academic-practitioner collaboration can stimulate change processes designed to enhance inclusive practices in community sport. Through analysing the three-year action research programme …

    Open Access•Alana Richardson, Fiona Mclachlan et al.•ARTICLE•Social Sciences•2025•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 7

    The introduction of the semi-professional Australian Rules Football League for Women (AFLW) in 2017 was indicative of a broader ‘boom’ for women and girls’ sport in Australia. The ‘boom’ promised not only newly created, or enhanced, professional pathways for elite women athletes but also a commensurate change in the community sport landscape, backed by a gender equality framework, that would offer women and girls new, and supported, opportunities…

  • There is more room to do it at home

    Open Access•Cameron Van der Smee, Bennett Mcdonald et al.•ARTICLE•Sport Education and Society•2025•Referencias: 31

    Public health policy and interventions seek to arrest declining physical activity rates in childhood.Two prominent settings for intervening in childhood physical activity are schools and the home.This paper critically examines how these two spaces are constructed in a way that leads to different physical activity outcomes for children in their early primary years.We draw on child-centred ethnographic fieldwork conducted with a cohort of Year 1/2 …

  • Depression Treatment Initiation Among Patients With Versus Without Chronic Pain

    Ashli Owen‐smith, Ashli A Owen-Smith et al.•ARTICLE•Psychosomatic Medicine•2023

    OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which the presence of chronic noncancer pain (CNCP) impacts the likelihood that patients with diagnoses of depression will initiate depression treatment compared with those without CNCP. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study of Kaiser Permanente of Georgia members older than 18 years who received a diagnosis of depression. Demographics and medical history were extracte…

  • Impact of Covid-19 on Trends in Outpatient Clinic Utilization

    Courtney E McCracken, Jennifer C Gander et al.•ARTICLE•Medical Care•2023•Referencias: 19

    BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic forced many US health care organizations to shift from mostly in-person care to a hybrid of virtual visits (VV) and in-person visits (IPV). While there was an expected and immediate shift to virtual care (VC) early in the pandemic, little is known about trends in VC use after restrictions eased. METHODS: This is a retrospective study using data from 3 health care systems. All completed visits from adult primary c…

  • Development of a Common Data Model for a Multisite and Multiyear Study of Virtual Visit Implementation

    Douglas W Roblin, Kevin B Rubenstein et al.•ARTICLE•Medical Care•2023•Referencias: 7

    BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: In multisite studies, a common data model (CDM) standardizes dataset organization, variable definitions, and variable code structures and can support distributed data processing. We describe the development of a CDM for a study of virtual visit implementation in 3 Kaiser Permanente (KP) regions. METHODS: We conducted several scoping reviews to inform our study's CDM design: (1) virtual visit mode, implementation timing, and …

  • Old Rules for New Times

    Open Access•Bennett Mcdonald, Brent Mcdonald et al.•ARTICLE•American Behavioral Scientist•2023•Referencias: 13

    During the first few months of the pandemic, professional sport around the globe stopped, as competitions and leagues were cancelled, postponed, or went into hiatus while sport administrators scrambled to work out ways to reboot their product in a COVID-19 world. Sport media outlets were faced with the task of reporting on sport and filling the void for fans in the absence of any live content. This article is concerned with the content, both in q…

  • Enhancing social inclusion in sport

    Open Access•Ramón Spaaij, Carla Nascimento Luguetti et al.•ARTICLE•International Review for the…•2023•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 43

    There are systemic and longstanding inequalities in sport participation for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) migrants. Drawing on theoretical foundations of critical pedagogy and social justice education, as well as a public sociology perspective, this paper examines the development of an action research (AR) project to support the co-creation of inclusive climates in sports clubs in CALD communities in Melbourne, Australia. We use ar…

  • How Can Physical Inactivity in Girls Be Explained? A Socioecological Study in Public, Subsidized, and Private Schools

    Open Access•Rodrigo Andres Soto-Lagos, Carolina Cortes-Varas et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022

    In the last few years, the World Health Organization has highlighted that physical inactivity is a global issue affecting women to a greater extent than men. Faced with this, different nation states have developed public policies to reduce physical inactivity at school; however, the biomedical and individualistic models used have generated widespread criticism, as figures remain the same. In the context of failed interventions on increasing level…

  • I play on a club team

    Cameron Van der Smee, Bennett Mcdonald et al.•ARTICLE•Sport Education and Society•2022•Citada por: 4•Referencias: 13

    The drop off in physical activity (PA) for children has led to an increased focus on their PA engagement, due to the poor health outcomes often linked to this decline. Subsequently, stakeholders, across a variety of fields, have problematised and intervened in activity settings to address this decline. Many of these studies acknowledge high levels of activity in the primary years and tend to prioritise their efforts on the adolescent years. An im…

  • Capturing the moment

    Cameron Van der Smee, Carla Nascimento Luguetti et al.•ARTICLE•Physical Education and Sport…•2021

    Background: Several studies demonstrate the benefits of understanding explicit and tacit embodied interactions in physical education (PE). However, there is little research that explores the embodied interactions that occur in early primary PE classes (years 1 and 2), where children (are socialized to) embody various body values, attitudes and stigma. We adopted a micro-sociological approach to examine the embodied interactions of a group of earl…

  • Swimming With the Bicheno 'Coffee Club

    Open Access•Shane Gould, Fiona Mclachlan et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Sport and Social Issues•2021•Citada por: 11•Referencias: 9

    Wild swimming is currently experiencing a surge in popularity as people avowedly attempt to reconnect with the natural world. Previous research has positioned wild swimming as a solitary pursuit whereby individuals retreat from society to connect with or overcome nature and better themselves. This article draws on an ethnographic examination of a wild swimming group in Australia and reveals that while being in nature and personal fulfillment are …

    Open Access•Carla Nascimento Luguetti, Bennett Mcdonald•ARTICLE•European Physical Education Review•2020•Citada por: 4•Referencias: 5

    In recent years, socially critical scholars have argued that love, as a moral basis for socio-critical work, should not be colorblind or power blind and that marginalized populations may understand caring within their sociocultural context, creating spaces for youth and teachers to challenge the racism, sexism, class exploitation and linguicism imposed on their communities. While there is advocacy of love in education and physical education, ther…

  • How elite sport helps to foster and maintain a neoliberal culture

    Open Access•Alistair John, Bennett Mcdonald et al.•ARTICLE•Urban Studies•2020•Citada por: 6•Referencias: 34

    This article explores the role that elite sport has played in the State Government of Victoria’s (Australia) neoliberal agenda of creating an environment conducive to commercial activity. Adopting an urban entrepreneurial approach of selling the ‘city’ as an attractive place for cross-border investment, the state government has strategically invested public funds into major sporting events in Melbourne. Four specific sporting events were examined…

    Researchers, policy makers, and practitioners increasingly pay attention to sport and physical activity as a means and context for refugee wellbeing and integration, influenced by wider political and policy concerns about forced migration. Considering this growing scholarly and policy attention, it is timely to take stock of, and critically reflect on, recent developments in this field of research. This paper offers an integrative, critical revie…

  • Ono, oh Yes

    Open Access•Bennett Mcdonald, Jorge Knijnik•ARTICLE•The International Journal of the…•2019

    In 2005, Football Federation Australia (FFA) launched its latest attempt to create a professional men’s soccer football league in Australia, the A-League. The new competition aimed to distance itself from the old National Soccer League, which was based around ethnically affiliated clubs and in doing so appeal to a bigger, more mainstream, market. The formation of the A-League also coincided with Australia’s alignment with the Asian Football Confe…

  • If it weren't for rugby I'd be in prison now

    Open Access•Bennett Mcdonald, Brent Mcdonald et al.•ARTICLE•New Community•2019•Citada por: 5•Referencias: 38

    This paper examines the positive role of sport in building social cohesion and the accrual of social and cultural capital for many young Pasifika men. In the process, we also critique the disciplinary discourse, underpinned by bio-racism and commodification, which is enacted on the bodies of Pacific Island men in the context of post-colonial, neoliberal, Australia. This results in over-representation in the rugby codes, manual labour, the securit…

  • Being Able to Play

    Australian policy makers and funding organisations have relied heavily on sport as a vehicle for achieving the goals of social cohesion and social inclusion. The generally accepted premise that sport includes individuals in larger social contexts, and in doing so creates positive social outcomes, remains largely untested and uncontested. This article considers the ways in which playing in an asylum seeker football team, located in Melbourne, Aust…

    Public health initiatives around obesity have generally worked well for middle class Australians and New Zealanders. This message has not had the same impact in Anglo working class areas and certain CALD communities, especially Māori and Pasifika, where obesity rates remain highest. This paper employs qualitative data from interviews with eighty‐five Māori and Pasifika migrants to Australia to explore attitudes to food purchasing and consumption …

    The intersection of sport and education is a potentially powerful site for the production of class and gender. This paper examines how the relationship between sport and education can also serve to (re)produce ideas about ‘race’. Drawing on research conducted during my time as a coach of the first XV rugby team at an elite private school in Australia, I consider how whiteness creates the ‘other’. In particular I highlight how, despite their absen…

    The last 20 years has seen a great increase in Pacific Islander migration to Australia and also a subsequent rise in the number of Australians from Pacific island backgrounds. Perhaps one of the most visible spheres where this migratory phenomenon can be witnessed is in the massive over-representation of Pacific Islanders in both rugby codes. This paper examines the effects of professionalisation and the Super Rugby expansion into a ‘non-rugby’ s…

  • The reproduction of biological ‘race’ through physical education textbooks and curriculum

    Open Access•Bennett Mcdonald•ARTICLE•European Physical Education Review•2013•Citada por: 7•Referencias: 6

    This paper examines the usage of ‘race’ in high school physical education textbooks in Australia. In particular, it examines the concept of biological ‘race’ in connection with human performance in sport. DNA studies do not indicate that separate classifiable subspecies (races) exist within modern humans. A content analysis of physical education textbooks in Australia suggests that they are sites that continue to perpetuate myths of ‘race’ and th…

The new competition aimed to distance itself from the old National Soccer League, which was based around ethnically affiliated clubs and in doing so appeal to a bigger, more mainstream, market. The formation of the A-League also coincided with Australia’s alignment with the Asian Football Confe…

  • If it weren't for rugby I'd be in prison now

    Open Access•Bennett Mcdonald, Brent Mcdonald et al.•ARTICLE•New Community•2019•Citada por: 5•Referencias: 38

    This paper examines the positive role of sport in building social cohesion and the accrual of social and cultural capital for many young Pasifika men. In the process, we also critique the disciplinary discourse, underpinned by bio-racism and commodification, which is enacted on the bodies of Pacific Island men in the context of post-colonial, neoliberal, Australia. This results in over-representation in the rugby codes, manual labour, the securit…

    In recent years, socially critical scholars have argued that love, as a moral basis for socio-critical work, should not be colorblind or power blind and that marginalized populations may understand caring within their sociocultural context, creating spaces for youth and teachers to challenge the racism, sexism, class exploitation and linguicism imposed on their communities. While there is advocacy of love in education and physical education, ther…

  • How elite sport helps to foster and maintain a neoliberal culture

    Open Access•Alistair John, Bennett Mcdonald et al.•ARTICLE•Urban Studies•2020•Citada por: 6•Referencias: 34

    This article explores the role that elite sport has played in the State Government of Victoria’s (Australia) neoliberal agenda of creating an environment conducive to commercial activity. Adopting an urban entrepreneurial approach of selling the ‘city’ as an attractive place for cross-border investment, the state government has strategically invested public funds into major sporting events in Melbourne. Four specific sporting events were examined…

  • Capturing the moment

    Cameron Van der Smee, Carla Nascimento Luguetti et al.•ARTICLE•Physical Education and Sport…•2021

    Background: Several studies demonstrate the benefits of understanding explicit and tacit embodied interactions in physical education (PE). However, there is little research that explores the embodied interactions that occur in early primary PE classes (years 1 and 2), where children (are socialized to) embody various body values, attitudes and stigma. We adopted a micro-sociological approach to examine the embodied interactions of a group of earl…

    Open Access•Shane Gould, Fiona Mclachlan et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Sport and Social Issues•2021•Citada por: 11•Referencias: 9

    Wild swimming is currently experiencing a surge in popularity as people avowedly attempt to reconnect with the natural world. Previous research has positioned wild swimming as a solitary pursuit whereby individuals retreat from society to connect with or overcome nature and better themselves. This article draws on an ethnographic examination of a wild swimming group in Australia and reveals that while being in nature and personal fulfillment are …

  • How Can Physical Inactivity in Girls Be Explained? A Socioecological Study in Public, Subsidized, and Private Schools

    Open Access•Rodrigo Andres Soto-Lagos, Carolina Cortes-Varas et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2022

    In the last few years, the World Health Organization has highlighted that physical inactivity is a global issue affecting women to a greater extent than men. Faced with this, different nation states have developed public policies to reduce physical inactivity at school; however, the biomedical and individualistic models used have generated widespread criticism, as figures remain the same. In the context of failed interventions on increasing level…

  • I play on a club team

    Cameron Van der Smee, Bennett Mcdonald et al.•ARTICLE•Sport Education and Society•2022•Citada por: 4•Referencias: 13

    The drop off in physical activity (PA) for children has led to an increased focus on their PA engagement, due to the poor health outcomes often linked to this decline. Subsequently, stakeholders, across a variety of fields, have problematised and intervened in activity settings to address this decline. Many of these studies acknowledge high levels of activity in the primary years and tend to prioritise their efforts on the adolescent years. An im…

    Courtney E McCracken, Jennifer C Gander et al.•ARTICLE•Medical Care•2023•Referencias: 19

    BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic forced many US health care organizations to shift from mostly in-person care to a hybrid of virtual visits (VV) and in-person visits (IPV). While there was an expected and immediate shift to virtual care (VC) early in the pandemic, little is known about trends in VC use after restrictions eased. METHODS: This is a retrospective study using data from 3 health care systems. All completed visits from adult primary c…
