Agroforestry in the UK: Exploring consumer knowledge and interest
Purpose This paper's purpose is to explore the current interest and knowledge that UK consumers hold around agroforestry. Despite the many reported benefits of agroforestry systems, uptake in the UK, as well as other temperate nations, has been low. As the consumer has a role to play in the transition of agriculture to methods that are more environmentally friendly it is vital to have an understanding of their perceptions. Yet to date no work has…
Beyond the boom-bust cycle: An interdisciplinary framework for analysing crop booms
The expansion of commercial agriculture is one of the primary drivers of livelihood and land-use changes in the world. Globalisation and other factors have intensified this expansion to the point where booms in single cash crops overtake entire regions before going bust, a pattern that is particularly pervasive in resource frontiers. Using case studies across the Mekong Region, a place which serves as a harbinger for crop booms globally, we propo…
Family members, ambulance clinicians and attempting CPR in the community: The ethical and legal imperative to reach collaborative consensus at speed
Here we present the personal perspectives of two authors on the important and unfortunately frequent scenario of ambulance clinicians facing a deceased individual and family members who do not wish them to attempt cardiopulmonary resuscitation. We examine the professional guidance and the protection provided to clinicians, which is not matched by guidance to protect family members. We look at the legal framework in which these scenarios are takin…
Lao peasants on the move: Pathways of agrarian change in Laos
Grant Evans’ body of work on Laos consistently sought to understand how peasant society responded to political, social and economic change. As the Lao peasantry became ever more integrated both nationally and within the wider Southeast Asian region, and relations of market exchange came to dominate rural life, Evans maintained the need to reflect on Laos’ peasant roots to understand resulting pathways of agrarian change. This paper reconnects wit…
The colour of maize: Visions of green growth and farmers perceptions in northern Laos
The rapid expansion of hybrid maize in the uplands of northern Laos is viewed by the government as meeting policy aims related to green economic development. Yet, growing evidence of negative consequences of maize expansion are emerging. Based on farmers’ perceptions, we study: (1) farmers’ reasons for adopting and abandoning maize, and; (2) implications of commercial maize expansion on local livelihood security and inclusiveness (food supply, in…

Stakeholders’ Perspectives on Community‐Based Participatory Research to Enhance Mental Health Services
Historically, consumers of mental health services have not been given meaningful roles in research and change efforts related to the services they use. This is quickly changing as scholars and a growing number of funding bodies now call for greater consumer involvement in mental health services research and improvement. Amidst these calls, community‐based participatory research (CBPR) has emerged as an approach which holds unique promise for capi…
How Do Families Cope With Chronic Illness
Because chronic disorder is becoming an ordinary feature of family life and development, understanding its impact has become critical. This volume, and the conference proceedings it reports, represents a major effort to examine the family's response to chronic physical or psychopathological illness in one or more of its members. Recent data are revising our notions of chronic illness. Evidence is mounting that chronic psychiatric disorders reflec…
Long-term Effects of Prenatal and Infancy Nurse Home Visitation on the Life Course of Youths: 19-Year Follow-up of a Randomized Trial

Setting Semirural community in New York. Participants Three hundred ten youths from the 400 families enrolled in the Elmira Nurse-Family Partnership program. Intervention Families received a mean of 9 home visits (range, 0-16) during pregnancy and 23 …
Maternal Rules, Compliance, and Injuries to Preschool Children
This study examined the relationships among maternal rules, child compliance, and the injury experience of preschool children. To do so, 278 mothers of 3-year-old children were interviewed, mothers and children were videotaped, and medical records were reviewed. Results indicated that mothers' observed rule enforcement and children's committed compliance were inversely related to injury experience. The authors concluded that it is not the number …
Propaganda, Censorship and Irish Neutrality in the Second World War
Allied propaganda and Eire censorship were a vital part of the conflict over Irish neutrality in the Second World War. Based upon original research in archives in Ireland, Great Britain, the United States and Canada, this study opens a new page in the history of wartime propaganda and censorship. It examines the channels of propaganda employed in Eire and the agencies that operated them, including the press and other print media, broadcasting and…
Effects of Nurse Home-Visiting on Maternal Life Course and Child Development: Age 6 Follow-Up Results of a Randomized Trial
Objective. To test, with an urban, primarily black sample, the effects of prenatal and infancy home visits by nurses on mothers' fertility and economic self-sufficiency and the academic and behavioral adjustment of their children as the children finished kindergarten, near their sixth birthday. Methods. We conducted a randomized, controlled trial of a program of prenatal and infancy home-visiting in a public system of obstetric and pediatric care…
Academic growth curve trajectories from 1st grade to 12th grade: Effects of multiple social risk factors and preschool child factors
This study examined the main and interactive effects of multiple social risk factors and the preschool child factors of IQ and mental health on students' academic trajectories from 1st grade to 12th grade. A multiple risk score summarizing 10 environmental risk factors was calculated at 4 years of age for 145 families. Hierarchical linear modeling showed that high-risk students had lower grades and more absences from 1st grade to 12th grade than …

Preventing Child Abuse and Neglect With a Program of Nurse Home Visitation: The Limiting Effects of Domestic Violence
CONTEXT: Home visitation to families with young children has been promoted as an effective way to prevent child maltreatment, but few studies have examined the conditions under which such programs meet this goal. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the presence of domestic violence limits the effects of nurse home visitation interventions in reducing substantiated reports of child abuse and neglect. DESIGN: Fifteen-year follow-up study of a randomi…

Prenatal and Infancy Home Visitation by Nurses: Recent Findings
This article describes a 20-year program of research on the Nurse Home Visitation Program, a model in which nurses visit mothers beginning during pregnancy and continuing through their children's second birthdays to improve pregnancy outcomes, to promote children's health and development, and to strengthen families' economic self-sufficiency. The results of two randomized trials (one in Elmira, New York, and the second in Memphis, Tennessee) are …
Long-term Effects of Nurse Home Visitation on Children's Criminal and Antisocial Behavior: 15-Year Follow-up of a Randomized Controlled Trial
CONTEXT: A program of home visitation by nurses has been shown to affect the rates of maternal welfare dependence, criminality, problems due to use of substances, and child abuse and neglect. However, the long-term effects of this program on children's antisocial behavior have not been examined. OBJECTIVE: To examine the long-term effects of a program of prenatal and early childhood home visitation by nurses on children's antisocial behavior. DES…
Family context as a moderator of program effects in prenatal and early childhood home visitation
Typically research addressing minority family issues focuses on broad cultural differences between majority and minority families, and ignores or minimizes the diversity among families in the minority population. In this article, we address this diversity, specifically the influence of household configuration on the quality of the caregiving environment, and the ability of a nurse home-visitation program for first-time mothers and their infants t…
The promise of home visitation: Results of two randomized trials
Two randomized trials of prenatal and infancy home visitation conducted in semirural and urban areas are described and their results presented. The studies provide consistent findings that nurse home visitors can improve women's health related behaviors, qualities of infant caregiving, and can help women improve their own life-course development (reflected in behaviors such as rates of subsequent pregnancies and births, and receipt of welfare). T…

Theoretical foundations of a program of home visitation for pregnant women and parents of young children
This article reviews the theoretical foundations of a program of prenatal and early childhood home visitation that has been tested and refined over the past two decades while it was examined in a series of three randomized trials. It describes the role that theories of self-efficacy, human attachment, and human ecology have played in shaping the content and clinical methods of the program. The program was designed to improve: (1) the outcomes of …
Challenges experienced by home visitors: A qualitative study of program implementation
Challenges experienced by home visitors: A qualitative study of program implementation
While randomized trials that test the effectiveness of different types of home-visitation have increased our understanding of the structural features of programs that promote positive outcomes, we know much less about program processes necessary to achieve success. In spite of increasing emphasis on the importance of adapting programs to suit the needs and characteristics of populations served (Yutrzenka, 1995), little evidence exists about how s…

Industrialization and the Convergence Hypothesis: Some Aspects of Contemporary Japan
Optimal population and increasing returns to scale
The paper deals with the common allegation that economies characterized by increasing returns of scale are suboptimally populated. Although increasing returns is a necessary condition for suboptimal population, it is demonstrated that it is not sufficient. Furthermore, a more stringent necessary condition is available, i.e., the degree of returns to scale must exceed one plus the capital share for the economy. This necessary condition may also be…
The Other 'Phoney War: British Propaganda in Neutral Europe, September-December 1939
The first four months of the European war, which began on 3 September 1939, were something of a let-down for anyone expecting action and lots of it. There was war at sea, but on the continent little happened except that Poland fell to the Germans on 5 October, and the Royal Air Force dropped propaganda leaflets over Germany. The British Cabinet recorded, perhaps tongue-in-cheek, that German soldiers captured during an early, brief, French probe t…

We will greatly enhance our ability to achieve both these goals by arriving at a better understanding of the comparative experience of the two nations over time. We can no longer afford the delusion that what exists in the United States reflects the characteris…
