Lively and Unstable Implosions
This article is a collaborative piece, written between a group of geographers and artists. Together, we explore an “ad-hoc archive” of extraordinary and everyday objects associated with reproduction, broadly conceived. Some objects are directly or indirectly aimed at enhancing reproductive health or well-being, others at arresting or enhancing fertility, others still at expanding notions of reproduction beyond the genetic or biological. Objects a…

Implementation and Evaluation of Cultural Safety Initiatives in Australian Hospital Settings

The rationale for this work was to establish guidelines for best practice in providing culturally safe care across hospital and health services. METHODOLOGY: A systematic search guided by PRISMA Extension for Scoping Rev…
Social Justice Work in the University
In recent years, we have seen social movement-based calls for social justice and decolonisation in universities around the world. Some of these have been in response to specific events such as the murder of George Floyd in 2020, while others are rooted in longer standing social movements such as Rhodes Must Fall. These movements have served as catalysts for universities to rethink their commitments to social justice. This article presents the pre…
Towards Independence
Despite international healthcare charters supporting the principle that children should be listened to during healthcare encounters, children still struggle to have their views heard in healthcare. The aim of this study was to understand children’s and young people’s views of expressing their views and having those views heard in Australian healthcare. Child-centred qualitative research was the methodology employed and “Draw, write and tell” meth…
Getting beyond peeing and pronouns
Non-binary people make up just over half the UK trans population and younger people are more likely to identify as non-binary than those over 35 . Despite this increasing recognition, non-binary identities and experiences continue to be widely misunderstood. Similarly, if university trans inclusion policies focus solely on models of binary or medical transition, they will not fully address the needs of non-binary students. In the context of an in…
Engagement and Retention of Families in Universal Australian Nurse-Home-Visiting Services
Family support is offered to Australian parents of young children using a mix of targeted and universal child and family health services including nurse-home-visiting programmes. These rely on the voluntary engagement of families. In this study, the capacity to engage and retain families, including those at risk of becoming involved with child protection services, was examined. The broad objective was to identify nursing practices used at the int…
Seeing Infrared
This article considers how epidemiology has functioned as a form of resource extraction by tracing the work of Dr. Ray Newton Lawson, the founder of breast thermography and one of the first researchers to track breast cancer incidence within circumpolar Canada. By showing how Lawson was able to transform his ideas and observations about Inuit breast cancer risk into something medically, professionally, and financially useful, this article highlig…
"Rendering Inuit cancer "visible
ArgumentIn August of 1977, Australian pathologist David W. Buntine delivered a presentation at the Annual Meeting of the Royal College of Pathologists of Australia in Melbourne, Victoria. In this presentation, he used the diagnostic category of "Eskimoma," to describe a unique set of salivary gland tumors he had observed over the past five years within Winnipeg's Health Sciences Center. Only found amongst Inuit patients, these tumors were said to…
Professional self-efficacy for responding to child abuse presentations
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to validate measures of professional self-efficacy for detecting and responding to child abuse and neglect presentations, and then evaluate a clinical training programme for health professionals in a tertiary-level hospital in Vietnam. Design/methodology/approach A prospective, cohort design was used and professional self-efficacy was measured immediately prior to, and shortly after, training 116 nurses and do…

Maternal involvement in a nurse home visiting programme to prevent child maltreatment
Purpose – Nurse home visiting programmes designed to reduce the likelihood of child maltreatment in families at risk have been widely implemented in Australia and overseas. The purpose of this paper is to examine the intensity and duration of maternal involvement in a nurse home visiting programme to prevent child maltreatment. Design/methodology/approach – A retrospective, longitudinal design was employed. The clinical records of 40 mothers who …
Nurses’ experiences of home visiting new parents in rural and regional communities in Australia
Purpose Child and family health (CAFH) services in Australia initially provide at least one nurse-home-visit following the birth of a child. Planning and referral then commences for the on-going provision of appropriate services to families. Unfortunately, services in rural and regional communities in Australia can be fragmented and poorly resourced. Little is known about CAFH nurses’ experiences of working with families in these communities. The…

Maternal involvement and outcomes in nurse home visiting
Purpose – Home visiting is a strategy widely implemented to support families following the birth of a baby. There is a broad consensus that home visiting programmes are successful. But there is little understanding of factors moderating this success. The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between maternal involvement in a nurse home visiting programme, maternal depression, and adjustment to the parenting role. Design/methodology…
Deconstructing Vygotsky’s victimization narrative
Although many facets of Lev Vygotsky’s life have drawn considerable attention from historians of science, perhaps the most popular feature of his personal narrative was that his work was actively chastised by the Stalinist government. Almost all contemporary references to Vygotsky’s personal history emphasize that from 1936 to 1956, it was forbidden to either discuss or disseminate any of Vygotsky’s works within the Soviet Union. Although this ‘V…
Common and Specific Factors Approaches to Home-Based Treatment

Method: This study used a nonrandomized noninferiority trial design to compare the outcomes of 79 families who …

Parenting and conduct problems in children
A wealth of research has shown links between parenting style and child behaviour, and the development of conduct problems in young children. Unfortunately, the most common and well-researched measures of parenting do not tap specific dimensions of parenting clearly related to risk for conduct problems in children. Recently, the development of the Alabama Parenting Questionnaire (APQ) appears to have overcome this problem. It has several subscales…
