Safety prioritization beyond efficiency
Flavor learning and memory in utero as assessed through the changing pattern of olfactory responses from fetal to neonatal life
Mammalian chemosensory experience begins in utero, where fetuses are exposed to odors and tastes from the mother's diet. Although the effects of prenatal flavor exposure in humans have been investigated postnatally in infant behaviors, longitudinal follow-up studies of fetal and neonatal responses are lacking. To address this, we compared fetal and neonatal facial reactions to specific odors by asking mothers to consume a single calorie-controlle…
Perceptions of volcanic air pollution and exposure reduction practices on the Island of Hawai‘i
Kīlauea volcano, on the Island of Hawai‘i, is one of the most active volcanoes in the world. Over the past four decades it has released large amounts of volcanic gases and aerosols which form the volcanic air pollution known as ‘vog’. Communities downwind of Kīlauea have been chronically or episodically exposed to this potentially harmful air pollution and have raised concerns about the hazards of vog exposure. Public health and civil protection …
Are distributional preferences for safety stable? A longitudinal analysis before and after the Covid-19 outbreak
Policy makers aim to respect public preferences when making trade-offs between policies, yet most estimates of the value of safety neglect individuals' preferences over how safety is distributed. Incorporating these preferences into policy first requires measuring them. Arroyos-Calvera et al. (2019) documented that people cared most about efficiency, but that equity followed closely, and self-interest mattered too, but not enough to override pref…
Carers' perceptions of harm and the protective measures taken to safeguard children's health against inhalation of volcanic ash
Volcanic ash contains potentially toxic elements which could affect human health. There is a paucity of research focusing on the impact of airborne volcanic emissions on the health of children, and on their exposure reduction. Children's carers (parents/guardians) are critical to their protection, so documenting their perceptions of the health risk and their knowledge of how to reduce their children's exposure is an important first step to increa…
The Predictive Utility of Reward-Based Motives Underlying Excessive and Problematic Social Networking Site Use
Compulsive seeking of reward is a hallmark feature of drug addiction, but the role of reward is less well understood in behavioural addictions. The present study investigated the predictive utility of ten reward-based motives, which we identified in the literature, in explaining excessive and problematic use of social networking sites (SNSs). These motives were examined in a cross-sectional survey of 411 young adults, revealing that prolonged use…
Community perceptions of protective practices to prevent ash exposures around Sakurajima volcano, Japan
Whilst, globally, volcanic eruptions are unusual and cause anxiety in affected communities, people living near Sakurajima volcano, Japan are exposed to frequent ashfall with little-to-no official intervention. As part of a wider project, this study assessed how this apparently normalised experience affects residents’ perceptions of health impacts, and whether it is important to protect themselves from ash inhalation. A survey of 749 residents fou…
The efficiency-equity trade-off, self-interest, and moral principles in health and safety valuation
Short Communication
Inhalation of ash can be of great concern for affected communities, during and after volcanic eruptions. Governmental and humanitarian agencies recommend and distribute a variety of respiratory protection (RP), commonly surgical masks but, also, industry-certified N95-style masks. However, there is currently no evidence on how wearable they are within affected populations or how protective wearers perceive them being against volcanic ash (which w…
Are some deaths worse than others? The effect of ‘labelling’ on people’s perceptions
On the numerical forms of contingent valuation responses
Peacebuilding in Postconflict Societies
This much-needed, integrative discussion of the multiple dimensions of peacebuilding in postconflict societies offers a systematic approach to strategies and processes for long-term social, political, and economic transformation. Ho-Won Jeong links short-term crisis-intervention efforts to a sustained process that encompasses the entire complex environment of a conflict. His broad analytic framework and wealth of concrete examples provide a sophi…
The influence of item difficulty on the relationship between eyewitness confidence and accuracy
Research indicates that the confidence eyewitnesses express in information heavily influences both the investigative process and the credence which jurors give to eyewitness testimony. However, studies in this area suggest that there is either no relationship or only a small positive relationship between eyewitness confidence and accuracy. Nevertheless, it is argued here that researchers may have paid insufficient attention to the issue of item d…
