An exploration of the factors that facilitate and hinder schools’ engagement in providing bereavement support: A systematic literature review
Schools are well placed to provide bereavement support for pupils, yet teachers do not always feel equipped or confident to provide support and children and young people do not always feel well supported. This article investigates the factors that facilitate or hinder schools' engagement in supporting bereaved children through a systematic literature analysis from the years of 2018-2025, providing an overview of the most current literature. Paper…
Rediscovering Copperopolis: The Hafod Plate Rolling Mill, Swansea
In 2021, Swansea University commissioned Black Mountains Archaeology Ltd to undertake a community archaeological excavation as part of a National Lottery Heritage Funded activity plan. The excavation was undertaken on the site of the former Hafod Plate Rolling Mill in Swansea, South Wales, UK, within which copper plates intended for both national and international shipment were produced between 1910 and 1980. The rolling mill represented one of t…

The Application of Pollen Radiocarbon Dating and Bayesian Age-Depth Modeling for Developing Robust Geochronological Frameworks of Wetland Archives
Wetland sediments are valuable archives of environmental change but can be challenging to date. Terrestrial macrofossils are often sparse, resulting in radiocarbon ( 14 C) dating of less desirable organic fractions. An alternative approach for capturing changes in atmospheric 14 C is the use of terrestrial microfossils. We 14 C date pollen microfossils from two Australian wetland sediment sequences and compare these to ages from other sediment fr…
Patterns of aeolian deposition in subtropical Australia through the last glacial and deglacial periods
Debate about the nature of climate and the magnitude of ecological change across Australia during the last glacial maximum (LGM; 26.5–19 ka) persists despite considerable research into the late Pleistocene. This is partly due to a lack of detailed paleoenvironmental records and reliable chronological frameworks. Geochemical and geochronological analyses of a 60 ka sedimentary record from Brown Lake, subtropical Queensland, are presented and consi…
Integrated Care in England – what can we Learn from a Decade of National Pilot Programmes
Pilots in all three national programmes made some headway against their objectives but were limited in their impact on unplanned hospital admissions
The Quantificational Domain of dou: An Experimental Study
Which NP does all associate with in e.g. "The pandas, the children all saw"-the pandas, the children, or both? The intuition of adult Mandarin Chinese native speakers regarding the interpretation of the adverbial quantifier dou 'all' remains unclear and controversial, and various incommensurate theories of domain selection have been proposed. These studies may have failed to yield clear results because they used testing materials in which the int…
Stress, Genes, and Generalizability Across Gender: Effects of Maoa and Stress Sensitivity on Crime and Delinquency
In the current study, we extend the gene‐by‐environment interaction (cGxE) literature by examining how a widely studied polymorphism, the MAOA upstream variable number tandem repeat (MAOA‐uVNTR) interacts with distal and proximal stressors to explain variation in crime and delinquency. Prior research findings have revealed that MAOA‐uVNTR interacts with single indicators of environmental adversity to explain criminal behavior in general‐populatio…
Attitudes Regarding Laws Limiting Black-White Marriage: A Longitudinal Analysis of Perceptions and Related Behaviors
This research effort explores attitudes toward interracial marriage and related behavior patterns in the United States. These patterns are examined longitudinally from the perspective of the general public over a 25-year period. Specifically, responses to whether one favors or opposes laws prohibiting marriages between Blacks and Whites are combined with a measure of social distance (whether one had a member of the opposite race over for dinner i…
Methodological Considerations and Challenges to Conducting Research on Interethnic Relationships: Using the Right Toolkit
This article discusses the methodological issues and challenges associated with research examining interethnic relationships and marriage. A major focus of this article is on the identification and classification of interethnic marriages. A second aim of the article is to explore the specific challenges faced by researchers who study these types of relationships. The third and final focus of the article is on reliable and specific guidance for re…
Case management for at-risk elderly patients in the English integrated care pilots: Observational study of staff and patient experience and secondary care utilisation
Case management may result in improvements in some aspects of care and has the potential to reduce secondary care costs. However, to improve patient experience, case management approaches need to be introduced in a way which respects patients' wishes, for example the ability to see a familiar doctor or nurse

Tort Law Culture: Image and Reality
This article highlights two contrasting images of tort. The first reflects the traditional portrayal of justice, depicting tort as an independent ‘natural’ system of rules of universal application forming the foundation of a just society. The second is more recent and relates to the perceived development of a damaging compensation culture. Focusing on personal injury litigation, we show how these portrayals differ from the reality of tort. In pra…
Litigation Costs and Before‐the‐Event Insurance: The Key to Access to Justice
The cost of civil litigation is a key factor in determining the extent of access to justice. Following cuts in legal aid attention has focused upon finding alternative methods of assisting litigants without producing costs which are out of proportion to the damages obtained. The recent report by Lord Justice Jackson attempts to deal with concerns about increasing and disproportionate costs said to arise in part because of the encouragement of con…
Understanding the Occurrence of Interracial Marriage in the United States Through Differential Assimilation
American society is undergoing unprecedented cultural changes in the 21st century. This social transformation began with the civil rights movement in the 1960s. As the United States becomes more diverse, both racially and ethnically, equal access to a variety of social institutions and organizations becomes more challenging. With respect to marriage, popular media continually report the blurring of boundaries between racial and ethnic groups. As …
Evaluation of UK Integrated Care Pilots: Research protocol

Loss of Earnings Following Personal Injury: Do the Courts Adequately Compensate Injured Parties
The law provides that any person injured through the fault of another can claim monetary compensation in the form of damages. This study focuses on compensation paid for loss of future earnings and the fact that little use has been made of economic analysis by courts in Britain in determining such damages. This is in contrast both to what happens in the US and to the extensive use made in British courts of experts from other disciplines. A compar…
Court Awards of Damages for Loss of Future Earnings: An Empirical Study and an Alternative Method of Calculation
This article examines the effect upon damages for personal injury of methods used in the United States of America to calculate loss of future earnings. The work of lawyers is examined from the perspective of labour economists. The damages calculated by using these alternative methods are compared with those actually awarded in over a hundred cases determined by courts in England and Wales. This interdisciplinary and comparative study reveals that…

Racial and Nonracial Factors That Influence Spouse Choice in Black/White Marriages
Biracial marriage has historically been an important barometer of race relations in the United States. Mores prohibiting biracial marriage have existed for every ethnic and racial group that has occupied a subordinate position in American society. This type of marital union has been generally viewed by sociologists as a product involving individuals from dissimilar racial backgrounds, thereby constituting an exogamous relationship (Heer, 1974). N…
From Innovation to New Sport Development: A Slippery Slope
This paper provides and expands upon a conceptual framework in order to understand the development of a new sport from a product innovation. The example of the snowboard provides a detailed illustration of this process in a winter sports context and was specifically chosen for its ability to deliver tangible evidence of market acceptance by a defined market segment serviced by clearly identifiable suppliers. A model is developed, based on origina…

Biracial marriages in the United States: An analysis of variation in family member support
This paper focuses on family member support of the decision of respondents to marry biracially. Through the use of assimilation theory and marital assimilation as a subprocess, it was hypothesized that African American spouses in biracial marriages experienced more support and acceptance from family members than White and Mexican American spouses received from theirs. In addition, individuals in Black/White marriages were asserted to have experie…

Continuing care of Old People—A Medical Viewpoint
Provision for old people who are in need of continuing care requires close co-operation between informal carers and different agencies and disciplines providing health and social care. In the United Kingdom, the present system of care has evolved from earlier patterns of care centred on the asylums and the poor law with its workhouse institutions. It lacks cohesion. Despite the designation of old people as a priority group, resources are still in…

The Poetry of Hart Crane
One of the leading critics of our time, R.W.B. Lewis, charts the career of Hart Crane's imagination-of his vision, his rhetoric, and his craft. Crane, who has heretofore been assigned a relatively minor place in American letters, emerges from this rich, dense book as one of the finest poets in our language. Mr. Lewis traces the development of the theme which runs through all of Crane’s poetry-the need for the visionary and loving transfiguration …

Pensions Replace Lump Sum Damages: Are Structured Settlements the Most Important Reform of Tort in Modern Times
settlements, extensively used in North America, have been introduced into this country. These substitute pensions for the lump sums traditionally paid to plaintiffs for their future losses. The pension derives from an annuity bought by the insurer covering the liability involved, and held for the benefit of the injured person. In contrast to the once-and-for-all award of lump sum damages, the pension can be varied and its payments over a period o…

Racial Position Segregation: A Case Study of Southwest Conference Football, 1978 and 1989
Since the mid-1960s, the level of participation of African American student-athletes in intercollegiate football programs at predominantly White universities has changed significantly. Nearly half of all varsity football players in Division I and Division I-A schools were Black in 1992, indicative of more opportunities at the college level for minority athletes. Based on this statistic, many media observers have concluded that racial discriminati…

Citizenship and Community: Liberals, Radicals and Collective Identities in the British Isles, 1865–1931
In 1883 the radical journalist W. E. Adams described community self-government as 'the essence of all political liberalism that is worthy of the name'. This collaborative volume of essays enlarges upon Adams' thesis, applying it to the study of various 'currents of radicalism' in Britain and Ireland, and ranging from Victorian advanced liberals to Irish and Welsh socialists in the 1920s. Citizenship and Community explores the links between libera…
