  • Covid-19 and anxiety in pregnancy and postpartum: A longitudinal survey

    Open AccessSusan Ayer, Susan Ayers et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2025

    Findings suggest pandemic-related restrictions caused anxiety for more women than COVID per se. Adherence to guidelines was variable yet the prevalence of COVID infections was low compared to the general population. Findings can be used to inform policy and practice for future pandemics and health-related crises

  • Socioeconomic deprivation and perinatal anxiety: An observational cohort study

    Open AccessCatherine Best, Susan Ayer et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2024

    Neighbourhood deprivation relative to regional deprivation is a better predictor of perinatal anxiety than either regional deprivation or neighbourhood deprivation alone. Women of mixed ethnic backgrounds and women with physical health problems may warrant more attention in terms of screening and support for perinatal anxiety. Self-reported desire for treatment was found to be low

  • Rakhine Skies: Remote Sensing, Human Rights, and the Rohingya Crisis

    James R WalkerARTICLEAnnals of the American…2023References: 22

    The role of remote sensing (RS) in the investigation of major human rights violations has begun to significantly increase. Although geographers have focused on expanding the technical application of RS in documenting such horrors, there has been limited interest in exploring the complex ways RS is being used by international human rights (IHR) actors in the field. This article argues that the ongoing crisis in Rakhine State, Myanmar, has become a…

  • Remote sensing for international human rights advocacy: Critiques and responses

    James R WalkerARTICLEJournal of Human Rights2020Cited by: 2References: 10

    In recent years the rise of remote sensing (RS) imagery in international human rights (IHR) advocacy has begun to draw significant critical attention from the academic community. This article engages with prominent critiques that emerge from this literature and highlights several areas of concern in their interpretation of the vision of RS that permeates the modern IHR community. Specifically, I identify three significant reasons that the literat…

  • Funding Child Rearing: Child Allowance and Parental Leave

    James R Walker, Lenny Goldberg et al.ARTICLEThe Future of Children1996

    This article proposes two financing plans to address what the author identifies as the two primary concerns in the child care field: (1) a child allowance for poor and near-poor households to address the child care problems of low-income families, and (2) a program of voluntary parental leave, available to all parents at child birth or adoption, to ensure the adequacy of infant care. The child allowance plan would cover the first three children i…

    James J Heckman, James R WalkerARTICLEEconometrica1990

    "This paper estimates semiparametric reduced-form neoclassical models of life-cycle fertility in Sweden.... The estimated model integrates aspects of life cycle fertility that have previously been studied in isolation of each other: completed fertility, childlessness, interbirth intervals, and the time series of annual birth rates. The main objective of this paper is to determine which aspects of life cycle fertility, if any, are sensitive to mal…

  • The spin‐off as television program form and strategy

    Robert V Bellamy, Daniel G Mcdonald et al.ARTICLEJournal of Broadcasting &…1990Cited by: 7References: 1

    The spin‐off program, defined as “a new program derived from an existing one, usually through the appropriation of characters, “ has been used frequently as a primetime network television scheduling strategy since the 1960s. Implicit in the scheduling of spin‐off programs is the belief that they have a greater chance of success than non‐spin‐offs because the audience is already familiar with the characters and/or the situational aspects of the pr…
