Super-Survivor Discourses
This paper examines how normative regimes shape which narratives of sexual violence are rendered intelligible, particularly in the aftermath of #MeToo. I argue that sexual violence narratives are not only mediated by misogynistic normative expectations but also by specifically able-normative frames. Drawing on Eli Clare’s concept of the supercrip, I identify and theorize the emergence of a discursive trope I call the super-survivor: a subject for…
Self-censorship in communist China
State-registered religion is puzzling because it can be portrayed as both an opponent and a partner of the state. While registered religions need to be receptive to the rules of the government, they also need to satisfy the needs of their congregants. In light of the Communist Party’s increasing repression, I investigate how this complex positioning between the government and the congregation has influenced the content of sermons in state-approve…

(Pedagogies of Joy;) A Leap to Joy‐Centered Critical Design
Prior research demonstrates the integral nature of affective work in STEM/STEAM, including multiple works in this issue. In our contribution to this special issue on Centering Affect and Emotion Toward Justice and Dignity in Science Education, we seek to better understand the role of joy, an emotion that moves beyond the temporary shallows of happiness into the depths of complexity that connects fear and joy, constraint and transformation, and hu…
Implementation Drivers of Covid ‐19 Prevention Strategies in K‐12 School Settings
BACKGROUND: In August 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released guidance to prevent transmission of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in K-12 education settings. Schools varied in the degree to which they were able to implement COVID-19 prevention strategies during the height of the pandemic. METHODS: An evaluation team conducted interviews with state education staff and focus groups with district and school staff over…
Affirming children's dignity in their affective flow in play-based science inquiry
This paper investigates affect as part of children's sensemaking in the context of a play-based mixed-reality science learning environment. We build on theories of affect as disciplinary work by investigating the multiple layers of affect that are essential to children's scientific inquiry and to identify pedagogical moves that recognize, value, and build on this affect as integral to learning. Findings encourage educators to affirm children's di…
Intrinsic and instrumental care in pen pal letters
Studies of both professional science practice and children's science learning show that care is not merely ancillary to disciplinary work but a core and generative constituent of science practice. In science education research, however, students' care is often overlooked. In this paper, we describe the expression of care across two STEM classrooms (6th and 9th grade) studying biology and ecology and participating in a pen pal exchange. We analyze…
Designing to support equity-as-transformation perspectives for multilingual science learners
In this paper, we examine how researchers and teachers in a multi-year professional development program shifted their conceptualizations of equity. Following (Grapin et al (2023) Sci Educ 107:999–1032), we ground our analysis in two conceptualizations of equity that exist across fields: equity-as-access (learners should have access to disciplinary knowledge, practices, and career paths) and equity-as-transformation (learners should transform what…
Motor Learning Deficits in a Neonatal Mouse Model of Hypoxic-Ischemic Injury
Our findings demonstrate that young adult mice exposed to HI exhibit significant deficits and delayed learning in complex motor performance compared to sham mice. HI mice do not show deficits in gross motor performance; however, more subtle impairments are present in complex motor performance and learning. This HI model exhibits subtle motor deficits relevant to findings in humans and may be a useful tool in testing further neuroprotective strate…

Transforming Home Community Nursing Practice Through Nurse Empowerment
Ageing at home is the expressed wish of the fastest growing older adult population. Life care, not just medical/health care, can holistically address care needs of this population. Receiving care at home provides the best opportunity for care providers to address a person’s care needs within their natural environment- the place they call home. With heightened concerns of COVID-19 transmission, older audits are hesitant to have multiple care provi…
What Really Matters for Supervision Training Workshops? A Realist Evaluation
PURPOSE: Supervision training supports health care supervisors to perform their essential functions. Realist evaluations are increasingly popular for evaluating complex educational interventions, but no such evaluations exist appraising supervision workshops. Building on an earlier realist synthesis of supervision training, the authors evaluated whether supervision workshops work, for whom and under what circumstances, and why. METHOD: The author…

Adapting in Difficult Circumstances
To understand the consequences of Xi Jinping’s rise, one must look down as well as up. Even in the face of increased repression, people have a say over how it unfolds and the shape it takes. Many Chinese pastors are adapting to harsher policies and new ideological narratives by striving to lessen the threat Protestantism is perceived to pose. They reduce ideological competition, by not preaching about politics, dissociating from dissidents, and s…

Cantonese tone production in pre-school Urdu–Cantonese bilingual minority children
Aim: In this study, we examine the production of Cantonese tones by preschool Urdu–Cantonese children living in Hong Kong. Methodology: 21 first language Urdu second language Cantonese children (ages 4–6) and 20 age-matched first language Cantonese children participated in a picture-naming experiment with 86 words (109 syllables in total). Data and Analysis: Acoustic analysis was carried out for perceptually correct and incorrect tone productions…
Lexical Retention in Contact Grammaticalisation
Amongst the problems of contact grammaticalisation research in past studies has been, first, the problem of searching for diachronic evidence in relatively ‘new’ language situations, something which was advocated by Bruyn (2009), amongst others as essential to contact grammaticalisation research. Because of the absence of stage-by-stage diachronic evidence for contact grammaticalisation, many cases of ordinary contact-induced grammaticalisation m…
Experiences of a prolonged coal-mine fire
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the perspectives of local residents regarding the impact of the long-duration Hazelwood open cut coal mine fire in rural Australia. Design/methodology/approach A qualitative approach was undertaken involving 27 in-depth interviews with adults who lived in the town of Morwell, immediately adjacent to the coal mine fire. Findings Participant concerns focussed upon fear and confusion during the event, …
Physical Activity, Fitness, Cognitive Function, and Academic Achievement in Children
BACKGROUND: The relationship among physical activity (PA), fitness, cognitive function, and academic achievement in children is receiving considerable attention. The utility of PA to improve cognition and academic achievement is promising but uncertain; thus, this position stand will provide clarity from the available science. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to answer the following questions: 1) among children age 5-13 yr, do PA and phys…
Children's work, earnings, and nutrition in urban Mexican shantytowns
For many children living in conditions of urban poverty, earning money can provide additional resources to them and their families, and this raises interesting questions about the potential biological consequences (costs and benefits) of children's work in ‘modern’ settings. This study uses time allocation, ethnographic, dietary, and anthropometric data collected with 96 urban Mexican shantytown children (aged 8–12 years) and their older and youn…
Morphological adaptation to diet in platyrrhine primates
Morphological features of the jaws and teeth are examined in eight species of platyrrhine monkeys that coexist in the Suriname rainforest. Z‐scores calculated from geometric predictions for several features of the feeding apparatus thought to have some functional significance (e. g., tooth dimensions, jaw robusticity, leverage of primary jaw elevators) are compared to a profile of the naturalistic dietary behavior of these species (i. e., proport…

Causativity reduction in Singaporean English
A common feature of Singaporean English, and found to a lesser extent in British and US English, is the “conventionalised scenario” (Goldberg 1995); i.e. a causative construction in which an intermediate causee is neither expressed nor necessarily recoverable from context and common ground, e.g. You cut your hair , in which the action is normally attributed to another, unexpressed participant. The present study provides written data on the use of…
Private Uses in Public Spaces
This paper is based on an empirical study of users of an internet café in South east England. It picks out some of the key distinctions between internet use within domestic spaces and as a technology accessed in a public economy of consumption. The research findings are contextualized and tested against existing work on public internet access. The material derived from interviews with customers is used to explore the ways in which the internet is…

Children's Autonomous Food Acquisition in Mexican Shantytowns
Children's independent food-acquisition behaviors have been rarely studied outside of hunter-gatherer contexts, yet millions of children worldwide search, work, trade, or beg for food. This study uses observational, anthropometric, dietary, and ethnographic data to understand preliminarily the nutritive and possible social contexts of autonomous middle childhood food-gaining behaviors in Mexican shantytowns. While we find children forage, work fo…
