  • Medium and Message by Mail

    Open AccessManuel P Teodoro, J A Smith et al.ARTICLEPublic Administration Review2025References: 9

    Limited awareness impedes take‐up in low‐income utility assistance programs, which often suffer from low uptake. This study uses a field experiment to evaluate direct mail as a means of reducing learning burdens and thereby increasing participation in financial assistance programs offered by a large American sewer utility. Employing a conjoint design, we sent customers mailings that varied by medium (postcard vs. letter), frequency, color, sender…

  • Hiptox—Hazard Identification Platform to Assess the Health Impacts from Indoor and Outdoor Air Pollutant Exposures, through Mechanistic Toxicology

    Open AccessThomas Faherty, Huda Badri et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2024

    Over the past decade, our understanding of the impact of air pollution on short- and long-term population health has advanced considerably, focusing on adverse effects on cardiovascular and respiratory systems.

Our study seeks to assess and hazard rank the cognitive effects of prevalent indoor and outdoor pollutants t…

  • Work Want Work

    Mareile Pfannebecker, J A SmithBOOKWork Want Work2020

    Work Want Work considers in captivating detail how a logic of work has become integral to everything we do, even as the place of formal work has become increasingly precarious. With reference to sociological data, philosophy, political theory, legislation, the testimonies of workers and an eclectic mix of cultural texts – from Lucian Freud to Google, Anthony Giddens to selfies, Jean-Luc Nancy to Amy Winehouse – Pfannebecker and Smith lay out how …

  • The role of joint engagement in the development of language in a community-derived sample of slow-to-talk children

    Open AccessLaura Conway, Penny Levickis et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child Language2018

    We explored whether supported (SJE) or coordinated joint engagement (CJE) between mothers recruited from the community and their 24-month-old children who were slow-to-talk at 18 months old were associated with child language scores at ages 24, 36, and 48 months ( n = 197). We further explored whether SJE or CJE modified the concurrent positive associations between maternal responsive behaviours and language scores. Previous research has shown th…

  • Yes Chef

    Open AccessRobin Burrow, J A Smith et al.ARTICLEWork Employment and Society2015Cited by: 14References: 17

    This article foregrounds the experiences of a young chef ('John') during the early years of his career in the fine dining industry. His descriptions paint a vivid picture of life as an elite chef, which is thrilling, exciting and rewarding, but also mundane, degrading and dehumanizing. The environment John describes is characterized by strong ideologies and him working hard to align himself with a highly gendered (often fantastical) image of what…

  • Memories of Childhood in Post-War Grimsby

    J A SmithARTICLEChildhood in the Past2014

    This paper details the vivid memories of the author’s childhood in the fishing port of Grimsby, shortly after the Second World War. It was a time of shortages, overcrowding, improvisation and cannibalisation of anything that could be re-used. In time it became a period of reconstruction but not without its upheavals and difficulties. It begins in the ‘old town’ of workers’ small terrace houses, typically in a poor state of repair. Then it moves t…

  • Menstrual management

    Open AccessAlison Parker, Alison H Parker et al.ARTICLEDisaster Prevention and…2014

    Purpose – Effective menstrual management is essential for the mental and physical well being of women. However, many women in low-income countries lack access to the materials and facilities required. They are thus restricted in their activities whilst menstruating thus compromising their education, income and domestic responsibilities. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – This study describes the menstrual manage…

  • Reshaping social theory from complexity and ecological perspectives

    Open AccessJ A Smith, John Smith et al.ARTICLEThesis Eleven2013Cited by: 1References: 9

    This article argues that Durkheim's founding insight - uniquely social phenomena - presents us with both a foundation for the discipline of sociology and the risk that the discipline will become isolated. This, we argue, has happened. Our contention is that the emergent social phenomena need to be understood in relation to, but not reduced to, their biological and psychological substrates. Similarly, there are a number of other characteristics, n…

  • Social Composition

    Robert Hamilton, J A Smith et al.ARTICLELeonardo Music Journal2011

Web-based notation systems are discussed alongside in-app visual scoring methodologies for the display of pitch, timing and duration data for instrumental and vocal performance. User-generated content and community-dri…

  • Qualitative Complexity

    J A Smith, John Smith et al.BOOKQualitative Complexity2006

    Offering a critique of the humanist paradigm in contemporary social theory, Qualitative Complexity is the first comprehensive sociological analysis of complexity theory. Drawing from sources in sociology, philosophy, complexity theory, 'fuzzy logic', systems theory, cognitive science and evolutionary biology, John Smith and Chris Jenks present a new series of interdisciplinary perspectives on the sociology of complex, self-organizing structures

  • Manet's Olympia

    J A Smith, C JenksARTICLEVisual Studies2006

    This article seeks to question a position of the sociology of art – namely, that visual culture can be explained by reference to the conditions of its production. We argue that visual culture already inscribes a massive intent to differ from, or differentiate within, the general conditions of production. Here we attend to Manet's Olympia as a work that not only differentiates itself in that sense but has invited a complex history of reproductions…

  • The Relationship of Cognitive and Emotional Coping to Adjustment to Chronic Myofascial Pain

    J A Smith, Mark A Lumley et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1999

    In the chronic pain literature, pain coping and adjustment traditionally have been studied using cognitive and behavioral constructs. Little research attention has been devoted to exploring the role of emotional factors and their contribution to adjustment in chronic pain patients. Recent empirical evidence suggests that certain emotional approach coping strategies and competencies are associated with positive adaptation. This study was conducted…

  • Metacognitive and Other Knowledge about the Mental Lexicon

    Eugene B Zechmeister, Catherine A D’Anna et al.ARTICLEApplied Linguistics1993

    We asked a diverse sample of laypersons (N = 69), as well as a small group of scholars (N = 5), about the number of words they knew, about the number of words in the English language, about the size of English-language dictionaries, and about other topics related to vocabulary size. Respondents in both groups typically viewed their personal lexicon as containing less than 40,000 words, and the size of their active vocabulary as no more than 20,00…
