Understanding how food literacy is characterized and measured in the Pacific Islands region: A scoping review
Food literacy is an emerging research area and focus of health promotion initiatives to improve nutrition outcomes. Food literacy is contextual, and definitions differ across specific populations or settings. Food literacy as a concept has not been well studied in Pacific Islander populations. The aim of this scoping review was to identify how food literacy is characterized and measured in the Pacific Islands context and describe food literacy he…
Commercial or industrial use of mental health data for research: Primer and best-practice guidelines from the Datamind patient/public Lived Experience Advisory Group
Background Routinely collected health data, such as that held by United Kingdom (UK) national health services (NHS), has important research uses. However, its use requires public trust and transparency. Access by commercial/industrial organisations is especially sensitive for the public, as is mental health (MH) data. Although existing MH data science guidelines emphasise patient/public involvement (PPI), they do not cover commercial uses specifi…
Putting ethics at the centre of health promotion practice: Lessons from Australia
This article examines recent developments to strengthen ethical health promotion practice in Australia and their global relevance. Ethical health promotion practice requires a dual foundation: structured ethical oversight combined with practitioners’ ability to implement ethical values and principles in their decision-making processes, leading to evidence-informed health promotion practice. However, health promotion organizations and practitioner…
Respecting IHL obligations to the deceased does make a difference: The ICRC-led Falkland Islands/Islas Malvinas identification operation
The posthumous identification of Argentine soldiers killed in action during the international armed conflict in the Falkland Islands/Islas Malvinas was the result of the Humanitarian Project Plan, an unprecedented humanitarian forensic operation carried by the International Committee of the Red Cross at the request of Argentina and the United Kingdom. As a result of respect for international humanitarian law obligations to the dead and the novel …
It can Feel Like They've Forgotten you’: Enhancing Older Adult Participation in Urban Regeneration
We present two innovative and impactful interdisciplinary participatory projects highlighting interconnected older adult meanings in relation to UK town centre spaces. We argue older people occupy paradoxical positions within urban policies and planning discourses, highly visibilised as objects of concern, but profoundly marginalised and excluded. Utilising a relational functional significance framework, our findings capture valuable emplaced nar…
Qatchepp: A quality assessment tool for critical health promotion practice
Background: The origins of health promotion are based in critical practice; however, health promotion practice is still dominated by selective biomedical and behavioral approaches, which are insufficient to reduce health inequities resulting from the inequitable distribution of structural and systemic privilege and power. The Red Lotus Critical Health Promotion Model (RLCHPM), developed to enhance critical practice, includes values and principles…
Staging Post: Performance after apartheid
Founded by William Kentridge in 2016, the Centre for the Less Good Idea, based in Johannesburg, South Africa, aims to find “the less good idea” by creating and supporting experimental, collaborative, and cross-disciplinary arts projects that pursue process and secondary thinking. The Centre’s focus is to create two six-month-long seasons a year. Core curators from South Africa and from varying artistic disciplines are identified; the curators the…
What’s Wrong With the ‘War on Obesity?’ A Narrative Review of the Weight-Centered Health Paradigm and Development of the 3C Framework to Build Critical Competency for a Paradigm Shift
Discourse about health that focuses predominantly on body weight is referred to as the weight-centered health paradigm (WCHP). In recent years, there has been a significant increase in critical analysis of the WCHP. This has resulted in arguments for a paradigm shift away from focusing on weight and focusing instead on health and well-being. The aim of this study was to identify, critique, and synthesize the values, claims, and assumptions of the…
Variation in Dental Crown Morphology in Malaysian Populations
Dental crown variation was studied inthe four main population groups living in Malaysiausing dental casts (upper and lower) obtained from 790individuals. The aims of the study were to characterizevariation in 13 dental crown traits, within groups as wellas between groups, and to assess affinities between thegroups based on frequencies of occurrence of dentalfeatures. Using chi-square analysis and Fisher’s exacttest, the majority of dental traits …
‘Important Trifles’: Jane Austen, the fashion magazine, and inter-textual consumer experience
Austen’s letters, maligned by E. M. Forster, a self-confessed ‘Jane Austenite’, as ‘catalogues of trivialities which do not come alive’, have in many ways brought to life the consumer world of the late eighteenth century. However, we cannot pass over Austen’s letters as simple historical records of how and where the author participated in a burgeoning consumer culture. Rather, we must consider them alongside her fiction as literary artefacts acti…
The invisibilization of health promotion in Australian public health initiatives
The field of health promotion has arguably shifted over the past thirty years from being socially proactive to biomedically defensive. In many countries this has been accompanied by a gradual decline, or in some cases the almost complete removal of health promotion designated positions within Government health departments. The language or discourse used to describe the practice and discipline of health promotion is reflective of such changes. In …

An Incubus Upon the District’: Progress, Private Property and the Field of Mars Common
In 1862 the New South Wales Government ordered an inquiry into the future of the Field of Mars Common, a tract of unalienated land in Sydney’s north-west. This article argues that the Select Committee inquiry was intimately connected to a set of broader anxieties and fears concerning the colony’s future. Occurring in the immediate aftermath of the Robertson Land Acts of 1861, the inquiry offers an alternative perspective on the colonial liberal d…
Plant Sciences and the Public Good
Drawing on interviews and observational work with practicing U.K. plant scientists, this article uses Michel Callon's work as a tool to explore the issue of collaboration between academic science and business, in particular, calls by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council for a return to "public good" plant science. In an article titled "Is Science a Public Good?" Callon contributed to the debate about the commercialization of…
Reform, Perform: Sincerity and the Ethnic Subject of History

Town” Versus “Gown”: The establishment of the Cambridge Daily News as a modern newspaper at the end of the 19th century
The Cambridge Daily News was founded in 1888, a volatile time for the provincial press when the middle-class mass market for newspapers was still to be fully realised. This article takes the Cambridge Daily News's coverage of one sensational Town versus Gown case in 1891 as a starting point for examining how this local newspaper negotiated and sustained its own journey from pre-modern to modern journalism. It highlights reportage which attempted …

The aim of this project was to evaluate the implementation of a small-scale pilot project using health care assistants in the community to support disadvantaged women breastfeeding. The evaluation was funded as part of the Department of Health's Infant Feeding Initiative. A longitudinal observational and quasi-experimental design w…

Taking Stock: The making of a bourgeois life— The Confessions of Zeno
I must admit that I have over the past several years been drawn increasingly into the realms of confession and autobiography. This is due in large measure to my engagement in the 1990s with questions of Truth and Reconciliation, arising from of the Faultlines projects and the writing of Ubu and the Truth Commission. Most recently, I am undertaking research around the meaning and performance of sincerity, and while initiating this, I returned to R…

Jungian Typology of Professional Psychodramatists: Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Analysis of Certified Psychodramatists
The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator scores of 170 certified psychodramatists were collected. As anticipated, self-selection was readily apparent in the group as 87% were intuitive rather than sensing types. Psychodramatists are most likely to be intuitive feelers, and extraverted intuitive feeling perceivers represent 29% of all certified professionals. In general there were no major differences in psychological types between psychodramatists and sam…

Loss of a Rural Hospital Obstetric Unit: A Case Study
As family and general practitioners who provide a substantial portion of the obstetric care in rural areas quit their obstetric practice, small rural hospital obstetric units are at risk of closing. Using a case study design, we examined the impact of the loss of obstetric services at a small rural hospital in Missouri. This unit was the site of delivery for less than one‐half of the infants born to women living within its service area. However, …
Some Dilemmas in Implementing the Criteria for Continuous Assessment in GCSE English
Using evidence from a two‐year case study of teachers in a comprehensive school who were implementing the new GCSE examination in English, we explore the origins and development of two dilemmas. Opting to join a large consortium of schools using teacher‐based, criterion‐referenced, continuous assessment, the staff faced these different but interrelated questions. (1) As individuals, could they maintain the motivation of their classes if, early in…
