The Role of Agricultural Research in Policymaking: The Case of Food Systems Research in Vietnam
How the international treaty on plant genetic resources for food and agriculture can support effective germplasm exchange: Four Colombian case studies
Global agricultural innovation and food security increasingly hinge on access to plant genetic resources that transcend national borders. Utilizing Colombia’s recent ratification of the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGRFA) as a case study, this research explores how participation in the Treaty’s Multilateral System (MLS) can strengthen national agricultural innovation by mitigating legal and transacti…
The intonation of yes-no questions in Galician
This paper examines the intonational characteristics of information-seeking yes-no questions in Galician, a Romance language spoken in Northwestern Spain. Data from 20 Galician-Spanish bilingual speakers were collected via an interactive communicative task and analyzed acoustically in Praat following Spanish ToBI conventions. The examination of nuclear configurations (nuclear pitch accent and the final boundary tone) showed that yes-no questions …
Rural women's voices and gender dynamics in colombian land restitution policy: A case study review in valle del cauca, Colombia
Institutional network relationships and environmental governance in the Colombian and Peruvian Amazon
The Amazon-the most biodiverse biome in the world-faces huge conservation challenges. Multiple institutional and technological actors, organized in environmental networks, collaborate to support improved environmental governance. However, these efforts are understudied and underrecognized, particularly in the case of the Colombian and Peruvian Amazon. Employing a social network analysis, this study evaluates the actors, the institutional-technolo…

Féminisme, citoyennetés paradoxales et moments constitutionnels au Chili
In this article, we use historian Joan Scott’s concept of “paradoxical citizenships” to analyze three case studies: the constitutional proposals of 1925, 1980, and 2022 in Chile. By using intersectional and decolonial feminist perspectives, we will identify the continuities and ruptures that emerge by comparing and contrasting the paradoxical citizenships of the three periods, particularly the role of working-class women – workers, peasants, and …
“Letting the ancestors speak”: Collaborative archaeology at the Hastings Natural History Reservation
Since 2021, collaborative research at the University of California (UC), Berkeley's Hastings Natural History Reservation between the Esselen Tribe of Monterey County, UC-Berkeley, and the University of Oregon has demonstrated the mutual benefits of a co-created and Indigenous-centered archaeological research program within North America. While initial archaeological studies on the Hastings Reservation occurred over five decades ago, our project r…

Nature-based therapeutic interventions have emerged as a promising approach to addressing these mental health challenges. This study seeks to assess the impact of these interventions on stress, depression, and anxiety levels. Methods: We conducted an extensive search for randomized cli…
Acceptability of corporal punishment and use of different parenting practices across high‐income countries
Worldwide, many children experience corporal punishment. Most research on corporal punishment has focused on parents' attitudes and use of corporal punishment; however, other relevant parenting factors and practices have rarely been examined. This study explored differences among countries with various levels of progress toward a total legal ban of corporal punishment in parents' acceptability of corporal punishment, perception of parenting as a …
Phonation Patterns in Spanish Vowels: Spectral and Spectrographic Analysis
This article provides a detailed examination of voice quality in word-final vowels in Spanish. The experimental task involved the pronunciation of words in two prosodic contexts by native Spanish speakers from diverse dialects. A total of 400 vowels (10 participants × 10 words × 2 contexts × 2 repetitions) were analyzed acoustically in Praat. Waveforms and spectrograms were inspected visually for voice, creak, breathy voice, and devoicing cues. I…

Intonation correlates of canonical and non-canonical wh-in-situ questions in Spanish
This project investigates the intonation of canonical (information-seeking) and non-canonical wh-in-situ echo questions conveying repetition and surprise in Northern Peninsular Spanish. Data from 14 female participants were collected via a contextualised elicitation task. The following correlates were examined: (i) the melodic curve of the wh-in-situ question, (ii) the nuclear peak (in Hz), (iii) the wh-tonal range (i.e. the difference between th…

Creaky Voice and Prosodic Boundaries in Spanish: An Acoustic Study
This study investigates vocalic creak in connection to the demarcation of prosodic boundaries in Spanish. Data from a picture task from 10 native Spanish speakers from diverse dialects was examined word-medially and word-finally. A total of 800 vowels were analyzed acoustically to determine if they involved creak; duration of creak relative to vowel duration was also recorded. The role of prosodic context, vowel quality and gender were examined. …
Screening of Developmental Difficulties during the Transition to Primary School
The five-to-fifteen (FTF) questionnaire is a screening tool completed by parents that is able to distinguish developmental disorders in children aged 5 to 15 years old. The current study aimed to characterize the developmental difficulties by gender and school age (kindergarten and first grade) of children in their transition to primary school, using the Spanish-language version of the FTF questionnaire. The participants were 541 parents of typic…

Arabic-Spanish Language Contact in Puerto Rico: A Case of Glottal Stop Epenthesis
The current study examines the realization of adjacent vowels across word boundaries in Arabic-Spanish bilinguals and Spanish monolinguals in Puerto Rico, focusing specifically on the rate of glottal stop epenthesis in this context (e.g., hombre africano to [ˈom.bre.ʔa.fri.ˈka.no]). It was hypothesized that Arabic-Spanish bilinguals would show a higher rate of glottal stop epenthesis than Spanish monolinguals because of transfer from Arabic. In a…
Identidades masculinas en transición. Análisis de experiencias de jóvenes Nilahuinos en el campo y en la ciudad en Chile
Los cambios en lo laboral que modificaron la propiedad de las tierras y la condición de los trabajadores de permanentes a temporales, las reformas educativas, la apertura del mundo rural a un mundo globalizado, los procesos modernizadores y la estimulación de la economía, incentivados por políticas estatales sucedidas desde los años 70, fueron procesos que transformaron los roles de productividad y las relaciones de género que venían reproduciénd…
Empowerment through articulations between post-neoliberal politics and neoliberalism: Value chain alliances in Bolivia
Development cooperation between the “New Left” governments in Latin America and the World Bank shows the paradoxical and complex nature of social transformation processes initiated by these governments. Using the case of Bolivia, we analyse how the government of Evo Morales seeks to realise its political goals while introducing elements of neoliberal governance prescribed by the World Bank through the Rural Alliances Project. Though full of contr…

The Malleability of Participation: The Politics of Agricultural Research under Neoliberalism in Bolivia
This article analyses how neoliberal restructuring encouraged the use of participatory methods in agricultural research in Bolivia and how, at a later stage, participatory development initiatives had to be adapted to prevent conflicts with the post-neoliberal views of farmer organizations. The article contributes to the debate on the normalization of participatory methods in agrarian development. Engaging with Foucault's work on governmentality a…
Sensitivity to Visual Prosodic Cues in Signers and Nonsigners
Three studies are presented in this paper that address how nonsigners perceive the visual prosodic cues in a sign language. In Study 1, adult American nonsigners and users of American Sign Language (ASL) were compared on their sensitivity to the visual cues in ASL Intonational Phrases. In Study 2, hearing, nonsigning American infants were tested using the same stimuli used in Study 1 to see whether maturity, exposure to gesture, or exposure to si…
How Cost-Effective is Biofortification in Combating Micronutrient Malnutrition? An Ex ante Assessment
Phonetic variation in voiced obstruents in North-Central Peninsular Spanish
In Spanish, /b, d, [vvplosive]/ are usually spirantized to voiced approximants in all syllabic contexts after a continuant sound. However, in North-Central Peninsular Spanish (NCS), spirantization interacts with coda devoicing, yielding voiceless fricatives. In the majority of cases, coda /b, d, [vvplosive]/ occur in stressed syllables. This work examines whether or not stress is a factor in the likelihood of frication and devoicing of coda /b, d…
