Wellbeing Ways
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth belong to culturally rich and resilient communities, yet they continue to experience significant health and wellbeing disparities. Despite these challenges, there is a critical gap in culturally appropriate tools to assess and support the wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth in school settings. The Wellbeing Ways project addresses this gap by working with secondary schools to impleme…
Implementing HPV self-collection
Indigenous peoples in high-income settler-colonial countries experience disproportionately high cervical cancer incidence and mortality compared to non-Indigenous populations, reflecting systemic inequities and barriers to culturally safe care. HPV self-collection offers a potential solution to overcoming inequities by enabling women and people with a cervix to collect their own sample, improving autonomy, privacy, and access, and supporting cult…
Understanding wellbeing from the perspectives of First Nations Australian youth
Measures of wellbeing are increasingly used to inform critical decision making to support young people across a range of areas, including health, education, and programs and services that support them. Wellbeing is a culturally bound construct; therefore, robust wellbeing measures must ask about topics that are culturally relevant to and valued by the population of interest. Despite this, little attention has been directed at understanding the co…
The Unique Experience of Intersectional Stigma and Racism for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People Who Inject Drugs, and Its Effect on Healthcare and Harm Reduction Service Access
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who inject drugs face persistent health inequities, highlighting the need for programs that meet the needs of these groups. This study explored how intersectional stigma and discrimination affect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people's access to quality healthcare. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander participants aged ≥18 years who had injected drugs within the past 12 months were recruited fr…
How Your Spirit Is Travelling’—Understanding First Nations Peoples’ Experiences of Living Well with and after Cancer
As the number of people living with cancer increases, it is important to understand how people can live well with and after cancer. First Nations people diagnosed with cancer in Australia experience survival disparities relating to health service accessibility and a lack of understanding of cultural needs and lived experiences. This study aimed to amplify the voices of First Nations individuals impacted by cancer and advance the development of a …
A Huge Gap”
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Northern Territory (NT). Accessible and culturally appropriate cancer screening programs are a vital component in reducing the burden of cancer. Primary health care plays a pivotal role in facilitating the uptake of cancer screening in the NT, due to the significant challenges caused by large distances, limited resources, and cultural differences.…
Pathways between foodways and wellbeing for First Nations Australians
Five pathways through which wellbeing is supported via foodways for First Nations peoples were identified as: connecting with others through food; accessing traditional foods; experiencing joy in making and sharing food; sharing information about food and nutrition; and strategies for improving food security. These findings offer constructive, nationally relevant evidence to guide and inform health and nutrition programs and services to harness t…

The unique combination of Indigenist and psychometric methodologies to develop WM2A ensures a culturally and psychometrically robust measure, relevant across a range of settings and applications
A Systematic Methods Review of Photovoice Research with Indigenous Young People
Photovoice is an emerging qualitative research method used to engage community members in research that highlights their lived experiences and initiate change. Photovoice offers potential benefits to research conducted by and with Indigenous communities through privileging Indigenous knowledge and perspectives. There is a lack of synthesized evidence about the usage, benefits, and challenges of conducting Photovoice research by and with Indigenou…
The Suitability and Acceptability of the Think-Aloud Method to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Adults
Background There is a long history of research being conducted on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples that has offered questionable benefit but occasioned great distress and distrust. Using research methods that are suitable and acceptable to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples is a critically important step towards restoring trust and improving the accessibility and relevancy of research that better addresses the needs of Abo…
Development of Key Principles and Best Practices for Co-Design in Health with First Nations Australians
Together, these principles and practices provide a valuable starting point for the future development of guidelines, toolkits, reporting standards, and evaluation criteria to guide applications of co-design with First Nations Australians
The Fabric of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Wellbeing
Wellbeing is culturally bound and is shaped by many aspects of life, including experiences, beliefs and values. As such, in order to accurately measure wellbeing for a specific cultural group, it is necessary to understand the experiences, beliefs and values that influence the conception and experience of wellbeing of that group. This paper presents a conceptual model of wellbeing for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, which was develo…
We Have to Be Strong Ourselves”
Informal carers provide an important role in supporting people with cancer. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples experience higher cancer mortality than other Australians. To date, very little is known about the support needs of carers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adults with cancer. This article explored these needs through a qualitative study. Twenty-two semi-structured qualitative interviews and one focus group were conduc…
Quality of Life in the First Year of Cancer Diagnosis among Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal People Living in Regional and Remote Areas of Australia
Little is known of the quality of life (QoL) of cancer patients in the Northern Territory (NT) of Australia, where healthcare delivery is geographically challenged. This exploratory study describes QoL among Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal cancer patients in the NT, in the first year of diagnosis. Participants were recruited from the only cancer care centre in the NT and completed the Assessment of Quality-of-Life questionnaire (AQoL-4D). The resul…
What Matters 2 Adults (WM2Adults)
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experience a greater range of health and social disadvantages compared to other Australians. Wellbeing is a culturally-bound construct, and to date, a national evidence base around the components of wellbeing for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is lacking. Understanding and measurement of wellbeing for this population is critical in achieving health equity. This paper aims to identify and …
Measuring health care experiences that matter to Indigenous people in Australia with cancer
Existing tools are likely to miss key aspects of Indigenous peoples' experiences of cancer care in Australia. Failure to adequately assess care experiences related to cultural safety may compromise efforts to improve health outcomes. Addressing gaps requires development of experience measures that are strengths-based, reflect an Indigenous worldview and measure aspects of experience relevant to Indigenous people
Poor self-rated oral health associated with poorer general health among Indigenous Australians
Fair or poor self-rated oral health among Indigenous persons in South Australia was associated with poor general health as measured by EQ-5D-5L disutility. The relationship was especially evident with respect to mobility, self-care and anxiety/depression. The findings emphasise the importance of oral health as predictors of general health among Indigenous Australians
Population-based utility scores for HPV infection and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma among Indigenous Australians
Among a large sample of Indigenous Australians, utility for oral HPV infection and OPSCC decreased with severity of health states. Older participants, as well as males and those residing in non-metropolitan locations, had decreased utility for high-grade cytology and early invasive cancer states. Our findings are an important contribution to cost-utility and disease prevention strategies that seek to inform policies around reducing HPV infection …

Older Aboriginal Australians’ Health Concerns and Preferences for Healthy Ageing Programs
While there is strong evidence of the need for healthy ageing programs for older Aboriginal Australians, few are available. It is important to understand older Aboriginal Australians' perspectives on healthy ageing in order to co-design culturally-appropriate programs, including views on technology use in this context. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 34 Aboriginal Australians aged 50 years and older from regional and urban communit…
What Matters 2 Adults
The new wellbeing measure will have wide applicability in assessing the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of new programs and services for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Results will be disseminated through journals, conferences and policy forums, and will be shared with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, organisations and research participants
Communication, Collaboration and Care Coordination
Communication, collaboration and care coordination are integral in the provision of quality cancer care for Indigenous Australians. It is recommended that health policy and funding be designed to incorporate these aspects across services and settings as a strategy to improve cancer outcomes for Indigenous people in Queensland
Service Level Factors Associated with Cervical Screening in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Primary Health Care Centres in Australia
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women have significantly higher cervical cancer incidence and mortality than other Australian women. In this study, we assessed the documented delivery of cervical screening for women attending Indigenous Primary Health Care (PHC) centres across Australia and identified service-level factors associated with between-centre variation in screening coverage. We analysed 3801 clinical audit records for PHC clients…
Long-term out of pocket expenditure of people with cancer
Indigenous people with cancer had lower out-of-pocket expenditure, but also accessed fewer Medicare services compared to their non-Indigenous counterparts. Indigenous people with cancer were less likely to access specialist attendances, pathology tests, and diagnostic imaging through MBS, and more likely to access primary health care, such as services provided by general practitioners
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people's domains of wellbeing
The Theory of Party Equilibrium
Behind most political scientists' studies of nonvoting there is, implicitly at least, a theory of passive consent. This is particularly the case where nonvoting as a result of apathy is concerned. For, it is suggested, apathy tends to increase when citizens are satisfied that their interests will not be seriously harmed, regardless of which party wins. In other words: the very reasons which underlie apathetic nonvoters' failure to participate in …

Spatial variation in cervical cancer screening participation and outcomes among Indigenous and non‐Indigenous Australians in Queensland
Indigenous women continue to experience a disproportionately higher burden of cervical cancer than non‐Indigenous women in Australia. The National Indigenous Cervical Screening Project used probabilistic record linkage to combine population‐based administrative databases and identify Indigenous women on Pap Smear Registers. This study aimed to quantify the spatial variation by local government areas (LGAs) for Indigenous and non‐Indigenous women …
An Appraisal of the 1950 Census Income Data, Volume 23
This volume, from the 1956 Conference, deals with the nature, reliability, and the uses of the income data included in the 1950 census. It contrasts this data with income information from other sources—field surveys, and administrative records of government regulatory, fiscal, and social security agencies. Another group of papers deals with substantive findings based on income data. Of three papers of a more general nature, one surveys the fronti…
The Constitutional Revolution of 1837 and the Myth of Marshall's Monolith
ONE of American history's pivotal Supreme Court cases was Charles River Bridge v. Warren Bridge.' In this 1837 police power case, Chief Justice Roger B. Taney elevated the public welfare to the status of a judicially enforceable limit on the rights of individual property holders. Writing of the Charles River Bridge opinion's effect on the great vested rights precedent, Marshall's Dartmouth College decision,2 Robert G. McCloskey has asserted

Environmentalism versus Energy Development
The primary institution in American society for the allocation of resources is the free-or at least theoretically free-market, working through privately negotiated exchanges between individual buyers and sellers. Given the priority of economics over politics in the American tradition, the governmental system must be viewed as a subordinate institution-as a secondary or back-up mechanism-to assist in the allocation of resources, or to correct gros…

Health service utilization by indigenous cancer patients in Queensland
Indigenous cancer patients used a range of health services whilst receiving treatment. Indigenous Health Workers/Services and Allied Health Workers/Services were the most commonly used services. However, there is a need for further systematic investigation into the health service utilization by Indigenous cancer patients
Routine screening of Indigenous cancer patients’ unmet support needs
Staff and patients found the SCNAT-IP to be an acceptable tool and supported universal screening for Indigenous cancer patients. The SCNAT-IP has the potential to help reduce the inequalities in cancer care experienced by Indigenous Australians by identifying and subsequently addressing their unmet support needs. Further research is needed to explore the validity of the SCNAT-IP for Indigenous people from other nations

Cancer Services and Their Initiatives to Improve the Care of Indigenous Australians
Indigenous Australians continue to experience significantly poorer outcomes from cancer than non-Indigenous Australians. Despite the importance of culturally appropriate cancer services in improving outcomes, there is a lack of awareness of current programs and initiatives that are aimed at meeting the needs of Indigenous patients. Telephone interviews were used to identify and describe the Indigenous-specific programs and initiatives that are im…
Development of a National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cancer Framework
Indigenous Australians experience a substantially higher cancer mortality rate than non-Indigenous Australians. While cancer outcomes are improving for non-Indigenous Australians, they are worsening for Indigenous Australians. Reducing this disparity requires evidence-based and culturally-appropriate guidance. The purpose of this paper is to describe an initiative by Cancer Australia and Menzies School of Health Research (Menzies) to develop Aust…
Exploring Positive Survivorship Experiences of Indigenous Australian Cancer Patients
Amongst Indigenous Australians, "cancer" has negative connotations that detrimentally impact upon access to cancer care services. Barriers to accessing cancer services amongst Indigenous Australians are widely reported. In contrast, factors that facilitate this cohort to successfully navigate cancer care services ("enablers") are scarcely reported in the literature. Through qualitative interviews, this article examines factors that assist Indigen…
