Growing together
Historically, health research has prioritized biomedical studies of male bodies and excluded considerations of gender, leading to significant gaps in advancing health for women and gender-diverse people. This knowledge gap has real-life implications for women and gender-diverse people’s experience within the healthcare system. There are many system-level barriers to conducting women’s health research, including underfunding and the siloing of res…

The Interplay of Climate and Disaster in Men's Stories of the 2016 Kaikōura Earthquake in Aotearoa New Zealand1
This paper contributes to the emerging field of men, masculinities, and disasters by drawing on narratives of men's accounts of the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake, including how stories of the earthquake intersect with experiences and understandings of extreme weather and climate change.

Physical activity, sedentary behaviour and well-being
). Physical and psychological aspects of PA and SB experiences were interwoven. Participants valued mobility and were proactively trying to preserve it by keeping active. A constant negotiation among the OA burden, the need to enjoy life and life circumstances was underlying PA behaviour. Prescription and encouragement of a physically active lifestyle in this population should be linked to mobility-related personal values and sense of well-being,…
Gendering fieldwork
The examination of gender in fieldwork highlights a need to provide attention to possible problematic instances that may arise between women interviewers and men participants. Qualitative research identifies that women interviewing men find themselves continually navigating power imbalances while attempting to negotiate safe environments for themselves. Gender in fieldwork predominately focuses on differences between interviewer and interviewees,…

The lived experience of hotel isolation and quarantine at the Aotearoa New Zealand border for Covid-19
I wouldn't trade this country of ours for anything
There is an emerging area of research that examines men's personal disaster accounts, including how gender identities and sets of understandings about masculinities shape response and recovery. This paper adds to the literature through providing a geographic enquiry into men's sense of place and identifying the impacts of the Kaikōura/Waiau (7.8 Mw) earthquake sequence on rural men. Face-to-face interviews were conducted with 19 men across Marlbo…
She’ll be right’
This paper draws on the geographies of emotion and masculinities literature to explore rural men’s experiences of the 2016 Kaikōura/Waiau earthquake in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted with 19 men affected by the earthquake. Geographies of emotion enable reflection on the social context and individual circumstances of those impacted by natural hazard events, thereby contributing to understanding the way…

People With Low Back Pain Display a Different Distribution of Erector Spinae Activity During a Singular Mono-Planar Lifting Task
This study aimed to investigate the variation in muscle activity and movement in the lumbar and lumbothoracic region during a singular mono-planar lifting task, and how this is altered in individuals experiencing low back pain (LBP). Muscle activity from the lumbar and lumbothoracic erector spinae of 14 control and 11 LBP participants was recorded using four 13 × 5 high-density surface electromyography (HDEMG) grids. Root mean squared HDEMG signa…
The Supervision of Child Protection Work
It has frequently been recommended that statutory child protection services in Great Britain need greater provision of specialist supervision to support front line social workers. This qualitative study, based in social services departments in London, used the focus group method to explore the provision of supervision by team managers in a very pressurized work environment. The study highlights the difficulty of protecting adequate supervision ti…
