Transforming healthcare workforce motivation through personality and human values
The global shortage of healthcare professionals, aggravated in the post-pandemic era, poses several challenges to resilient and efficient public health systems. To motivate and retain healthcare professionals in high-stress environments requires an in-depth understanding of which aspects factor in their motivation beyond traditional extrinsic incentives. While Public Service Motivation (PSM) has been extensively studied, its interplay with person…
Clinicians’ Experiences in Transgender Healthcare
Despite the critical role of clinicians in facilitating access to healthcare by transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people, their insight and practice-based knowledge have been underresearched. Also, they may complement TGD people's experiences by giving an insider perspective. This exploratory qualitative study, conducted online in a sample of 25 clinicians who work with TGD people (n = 11 clinical sexologists), explores how clinicians working …
Produce or Not Produce Certified Foods? An Exploratory Analysis from Portugal
The certification of origin and quality of rural provenance foods paves routes of protection and promotion of the products and the territories. While the importance of certification at socioeconomic, policy, and consumption levels has been addressed in previous research, the views of other key stakeholders—the producers—remain somehow underexplored. The present study contributes to this topic by analyzing data from a survey of producers (n=104) w…
We Are Family’—How Urban Specialty Shops Portray the Consumers of Rural Provenance Foods
The literature on food consumption and marketing has been mainly concerned with identifying the appeal of the physical and sensorial features of food products, consumer choice determinants and their profiling according to socioeconomic characteristics, and perceptions and practices. This paper takes a different approach by analyzing how consumers are being represented and engaged with in the promotion of rural provenance foods, an overlooked topi…
An incredible voyage through Portugal” – the promotion of rural provenance foods by urban specialty shops
This article analyzes how rural provenance foods are portrayed by the promotional materials, websites and social media issued by urban specialty stores in Portugal. Even though provenance food may be defined in multiple ways as, among others, local, regional, traditional, and authentic, provenance is mostly about territories of origin: their biophysical characteristics, cultural values and practices of food production and preparation with socioec…
The High Note of Meaning
Public service motivation (PSM) has provided a new breadth to the study of what attracts and retains workers in public organizations committed to the public mission. The present research contributes to the topic by exploring local government workers' motivation for public service, the meaning they attribute to their activity as public servants, and the relations between PSM and the meaning of work (MOW). An adaptation of the PSM scale to the Port…
Mapping health vulnerabilities
Vulnerability processes and effects, albeit of great importance to cohesion and territorial policies, are nonetheless still underexplored and narrowly operationalized in scientific research. In particular, most assessments rely on economic indicators and a limited territorial scale, which do not have the same analytic potential of a broader view at a national level with regional/municipal similarities, specificities, and inter-connections. This g…
O que fazer face à crise? Representações sociais da disposição para agir
Drawing on representations theory and the responses to a questionnaire from 453 Portuguese participants, we analyzed the variations and anchoring of the willingness to act against the austerity measures in the context of the recent economic crisis. The results reveal three main positions: doing nothing, economic resistance, and civic participation. The discussion is focused on the finding that the differences between the inclination for action or…
Conflict in Jenin

Consuming Projects in Uncertain Times
Reception and identification processes, crucial to understand situations of political conflict, have been studied in relation to particular events, rituals, or media. This article proposes a different approach. It explores how ordinary people, through projects of their own which exhibit particular forms of intentional cultural production and consumption, manifest historically situated notions of selves. I use the idea of "projects" to understand …

Shopping in Jenin
For the past fifteen years, Palestinian women from the Galilee, who are citizens of Israel, have been going to Jenin, a large town in the West Bank, in order to shop. These excursions have profoundly modified home life, gender relations, and domestic and political identities. This paper examines the very processes by which women's shopping activities significantly contribute to the making and transformation of the household and social roles. More…
