  • Diet and Oral Health of Scythian Populations in Ukraine (700–200 bce)

    Open AccessTeresa Runge, James A Johnson et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2026

    We examined whether Scythian‐era populations living in different ecological zones had distinctive oral health patterns during the Iron Age. Our interdisciplinary approach should clarify whether these populations had different diets or behavioral practices. A total of 36 individuals were analyzed for caries, calculus, abscesses, ante‐mortem tooth loss, and dental wear. In addition, previously published stable isotope analyses of tooth enamel bioap…

  • Mobility and diet in the Iron Age Pontic forest‐steppe

    Open AccessAlicia Ventresca-Miller, James A Johnson et al.ARTICLEArchaeometry2019References: 80

    High mobility among Scythian populations is often cited as the driving force behind pan‐regional interactions and the spread of new material culture c .700–200 bce , when burgeoning socioeconomic interactions between the Greeks, Scythian steppe pastoralists and the agro‐pastoral tribes of the forest‐steppe played out across the region. While interregional mobility central to warrior lifestyles is assumed to have been a defining feature of Scythia…

  • Shorebirds Breed in Unusually High Densities in the Teshekpuk Lake Special Area, Alaska

    Open AccessBrad A Andres, James A Johnson et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2012

    On the Arctic Coastal Plain of the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A), the Teshekpuk Lake Special Area (TLSA) was recognized to protect outstanding wildlife values. Although information has accumulated on the TLSA’s value to caribou and waterfowl, its importance to breeding shorebirds remains largely unquantified. Therefore, we undertook a broad-scale ground study to estimate the population size and density of shorebirds breeding in the TL…

  • Distribution of Breeding Shorebirds on the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska

    Open AccessJames A Johnson, Richard B Lanctot et al.ARTICLEARCTIC2009

    Available information on the distribution of breeding shorebirds across the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska is dated, fragmented, and limited in scope. Herein, we describe the distribution of 19 shorebird species from data gathered at 407 study plots between 1998 and 2004. This information was collected using a single-visit rapid area search technique during territory establishment and early incubation periods, a time when social displays and voca…

  • Undergraduate Attitudes Toward the Elderly

    Linda J Allan, James A JohnsonARTICLEEducational Gerontology2008

    Knowledge, anxiety, and attitudes about the elderly were assessed in 113 university students using the Facts on Aging Quiz, the Anxiety about Aging Scale, and the Fraboni Scale on Ageism. No significant differences in knowledge or anxiety based on age or gender were found in the sample. Female participants in the sample were found to be significantly less ageist than males on average, and this difference was maintained controlling for the levels …

  • An analysis of the goals of lottery managers

    Open AccessJames A JohnsonARTICLECanadian Public Administration1979

    Government lotteries were introduced in Canada in 1970 and during the past eight years have increased greatly in number and in size. Lotteries have generated a great deal of public interest but the goals of lottery managers have received little attention. The purposes of this paper are to examine some objectives which could be achieved in the operation of lotteries and to use the results of this analysis, along with the experience of foreign lott…
