Structure Altering Effects of a Multicomponent Reading Intervention
We evaluate the direct and inferential mediation (DIME) model for reading comprehension with a sample of struggling readers in Grades 3 to 5 ( N = 364) in the context of a large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) investigating two theoretically distinct reading interventions (text processing + foundational skills [ n = 117] or text processing only [ n = 120]) and a control condition ( n = 127). We investigate whether the intervention affects…

Emotional Mental Imagery Abnormalities in Monozygotic Twins With, at High-Risk of, and Without Affective Disorders
Background: Mental imagery abnormalities feature across affective disorders including bipolar disorder (BD) and unipolar depression (UD). Maladaptive emotional imagery has been proposed as a maintenance factor for affective symptomatology and a target for mechanism-driven psychological treatment developments. Where imagery abnormalities feature beyond acute affective episodes, further opportunities for innovation arise beyond treatments, such as …
Escape from the Colonial Asylum
David was a white Barbadian who died in the Barbados Mental Hospital in 1963 at age 46. Although making sense of his story is meaningful to me for personal reasons, I have wondered what interest other people might have in the story of this insignificant bystander to the march of history. Marlene Kadar has been my colleague and friend in battle over many years. I have listened to her presentations, read some of her writings, and worked with a few …
Disability, Psychosocial, and Demographic Characteristics of Abused Women With Physical Disabilities
In a sample of 415 predominantly minority women with physical disabilities recruited from private and public specialty outpatient clinics, we examined experiences of physical, sexual, and disability-related abuse within the past year and its associations with demographic, disability, and psychosocial characteristics. Logistic regression analyses identified 27% of the variance and indicated that women with disabilities who were younger, more educa…

Users' Views of a Drop-in Project for the Homeless
Homeless adults attending a drop-in voluntary project were approached to assess their views on the project, pathways into homelessness, physical and mental health needs and history of substance misuse. Over a six week period, 70 users were interviewed. Of these 54 (77%) were men and the rest women. Twenty five (35%) were living in insecure accommodation. A significant proportion 61% (43) acknowledged having suffered from emotional or mental healt…
Anthropology and Theology in Pursuit of Justice
Hegel, Afro-Caribbean Religion, And The Struggle for Freedom
The study of Afro-Caribbean religion must take as its starting point the problem of oppression if the role of religion in the social and political order is to be adequately understood. Critical distinctions can be made between religious formations which perpetuate colonial oppression, those which react to that oppression without posing new alternatives, and those which contribute and give expression to the process of human liberation. Historians …
