Mrs. Perrin’s “Tranklements”
Reader as consumer
This article considers the influence of the emerging mass magazines at the turn of the nineteenth into the twentieth century on the poetics and reception of the short story. The author outlines the commodification of the short story within its magazine frame during this period and argues that much of the genre's critical marginalization can be traced to this era in its material history, as can the form's continued popularity with both writers and…
Health outcomes in economic evaluation
The quality-adjusted life year (QALY) is routinely used as a summary measure of health outcome for economic evaluation, which incorporates the impact on both the quantity and quality of life. Key studies relating to the QALY and utility measurement are the sources of data. Areas of agreement include the need for a standard measure of health outcome to enable comparisons across different disease areas and populations, and the methods used for valu…
Older Breast Cancer Survivors' Views and Preferences for Physical Activity
Evidence suggests that physical activity improves quality of life and physical functioning among breast cancer patients and survivors. However, previous studies have tended to focus on younger patients, despite higher incidence and lower survival among older breast cancer survivors. In this study we explored physical activity preferences of older breast cancer survivors to inform the development of future targeted interventions. Twenty-nine femal…

I consider the textual disunity often created by the use of illustrations, including advertisements, and the challenge to authorial autonomy presented by editorial intervention. I argue here that this material frame influenced Wharton'…
Adolescent girls' perceptions of physical activity
Low levels of physical activity among adolescent girls are a cause for concern. Examining girls' physical activity perceptions and motivations through in-depth qualitative research allows for greater understanding of the reasons behind their physical activity-related choices. Forty-seven girls aged 14 to 16 years participated in exploratory focus group discussions. Thematic analysis was carried out in which data were analysed inductively using a …
