Context Matters
Older people with HIV (PWH) experience higher rates of physical function decline and frailty than those without HIV. This study aimed to examine the association between physical function measures and geolocated social determinants of health (SDOH) in two geographically distinct groups of older sedentary PWH. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis using baseline data from a randomized exercise trial (the High-Intensity Exercise Study to Attenuate…
Before We Talk-Story About Authentic Representation, We Need to Talk About Relationality, Ethics, and Integrity Throughout Research and Publishing Networks
In an earlier article, I discussed performing talk-story, an Indigenous Research Methodology (IRM), as a means of co-creating data in Western contexts with sceptical participants. The methodological aim of IRMs is to address power imbalances between the researched and the researcher; thus, introducing relational accountability into the authentic representation of previously marginalized and/or silenced perspectives. However, adopting inclusive me…
Planning for implementation scale-up of a medication for opioid use disorder program across rural Colorado
Psychometric properties of the Positive and Adverse Childhood Experiences Survey (Paces) in clients with opioid use disorder
This study is the first to demonstrate the protective effects of positive childhood experiences in clients with opioid use disorder. PACES is a reliable, valid tool for assessing positive and adverse childhood experiences, which have independent effects on adult outcomes. Clinicians should assess both positive and adverse childhood experiences as part of trauma-informed care. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
The co-optation of Scottish cold-water surfing
Western capitalism asserts that knowledge is power, a political tool, something created by entrepreneurs, or a prize acquired and owned by the marketplace through predation. Gaining control of knowledge through cultural appropriation and co-optation enables the marketplace to commodify meaningful symbols and claim that its brands provide an authentic identity. Consequently, Marxist theories of co-optation suggest division and exacerbated imbalanc…
Socio-Structural Intersect With Post-Covid-19 Telehealth Utilization for Hispanic/Latino Groups in Colorado
Introduction: We evaluated telehealth utilization among Colorado Hispanics/Latinos during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A mixed methods design was used with urban and rural patients recruited through two Colorado Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) serving large Hispanic/Latino communities. Linguistically and culturally adapted Patient Attitudes Toward Telehealth (PATAT) surveys were collected electronically. Semi-structured interviews w…
Localism and attitude, ‘it’s all good’
Localism is framed as intimidatory anti-social behaviour designed to persuade tourists that a surf spot is off-limits. Hitherto, cultural studies have combined a top-down intersectionality lens with a priori Western-centric negativity to explain the consequences for those who ignore the warnings. Thus, there is a paucity of studies explaining why surfers experience nothing of consequence in these off-limits places. A critically balanced and compl…
Evaluation of an HIV-related Education Intervention Scale-up

Comparing community-based reading interventions for middle school children with learning disabilities
Introduction There is an abundance of community-based reading programs for school-age children who are struggling learners. The aim of this study was to compare two community-based programs (i.e., skill and reason-based programs) and to analyze any complementary benefits. Methods In this randomized cross-over study, 20 children completed two 8-week literacy intervention programs. The skills-based program, Leap to Literacy , focused on explicit te…
Student-Led Stress Reduction Support Groups
BACKGROUND: Burnout and attrition in nursing have been accelerated by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Nursing students experience greater stress than non-nursing students but often lack adequate institutional support to build resiliency. Support groups are an effective strategy for processing stress that are underused in nursing education. An innovative online stress impact course was developed at a college of nursing to address…
Talk-Story
This article aims to broaden joint performances of talk-story, a form of Indigenous Research Methodology, to give voice to non-indigenous participants who presuppose misrepresentation in qualitative research. Indigenous Research Methodologies emerged to challenge axiological concerns with Western Research Methodologies, which participants perceive to disregard, oppress, and exploit those they claim to represent. Founded on the principle of relati…
Pleasurable surfing is possible
This article explores the meaningful nothingness between conflict and hedonism experienced by most surfers. It explains how meaningful nothingness is achieved through constructive individual and collective sociation choices. These choices, exemplified through acts of omission and commission, inform mutually beneficial social forms where conflict is mundanely resolved or avoided by diverse social types. For the past 60 years, scholars have employe…
The University of Crisis
This article explores the history of the university as a modern social institution through the epistemological framework of crisis. Starting from the historical understanding that the university has always-already been in the throes of crisis, and that such crisis (or crises) are cemented into the conceptual architecture of both the university itself and the inherently promiscuous nature of knowledge in society, this exploration of the university…
Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment in a rural Ryan White Part C HIV clinic
About 24% of people living with HIV nationally are identified as needing treatment for alcohol or illicit drug use. Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) has evolved as a strategy to assess and intervene with substance abuse behaviors in various clinical settings. However, less is known about the processes and outcomes of using the SBIRT intervention in outpatient HIV clinics. This paper presents a descriptive analysis …

Automatically Identifying the Source Words of Lexical Blends in English
Newly coined words pose problems for natural language processing systems because they are not in a system's lexicon, and therefore no lexical information is available for such words. A common way to form new words is lexical blending, as in cosmeceutical, a blend of cosmetic and pharmaceutical. We propose a statistical model for inferring a blend's source words drawing on observed linguistic properties of blends; these properties are largely base…
Unsupervised Type and Token Identification of Idiomatic Expressions
Idiomatic expressions are plentiful in everyday language, yet they remain mysterious, as it is not clear exactly how people learn and understand them. They are of special interest to linguists, psycholinguists, and lexicographers, mainly because of their syntactic and semantic idiosyncrasies as well as their unclear lexical status. Despite a great deal of research on the properties of idioms in the linguistics literature, there is not much agreem…
The Transformation of Competitive Advantage in East Asia
Privatisation and economic growth in developing countries
This article re-examines the relation between privatisation and economic growth. Previous studies that have attempted to measure this relationship have concluded that privatisation has had a sizeable positive effect on economic growth. Our study uses data for 63 developing countries over the time period 1988-97. It uses the framework of an extreme-bounds analysis (EBA) to conduct a cross-country growth regression analysis. Our findings contradict…
Competition And Its Regulation
This article examines the role of competition policy in developing countries. The leading international development agencies, such as the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank, have proclaimed their support for private sector–led development as the best strategy for reducing poverty. The benefits of private sector development are dependent on ensuring competitive market conditions, which are often absent in developing countries. However, theo…

As predicted, Conservative churches were reportedly more successful in maintaining themsel…
