Driving a sustainable road transportation transformation
Public Water System Governance in Rural Montana, USA
Recent waves of U.S. federal waterworks investments aim to repair material as well as socioeconomic deficits. Yet a growing recognition of the central role of local capacity in successful water resources and infrastructure governance raises questions about the extent to which such investments will engender more resilient rural communities. Synthesizing resilience theory with the drinking water governance literature, we use qualitative methods to …
A Qualitative Study of the Pain Experiences of Children and Their Parents at a Canadian Children’s Hospital
Current literature is lacking in describing families' experiences in being involved in children's pain management. This study sought to understand children and their parents' experiences with pain management at a tertiary care children's hospital. Twelve child-parent dyads were recruited to participate in the study from January to August 2022. Children and their parents chose whether to be interviewed together or separately. Transcripts were anal…
Waking from Paralysis
Despite decades of climate science research, existing climate actions have had limited impacts on mitigating climate change. Efforts to reduce emissions, for example, have yet to spur sufficient action to reduce the most severe effects of climate change. We draw from our experiences as Ojibwe knowledge holders and community members, scientists, and scholars to demonstrate how the lack of recognition of traditional knowledges (TK) within climate s…

Mental Health of Employees at a Canadian Animal Welfare Organization
Despite numerous benefits, a dark side exists in human and veterinary caregiving professions that can negatively impact caregiver mental health. It was postulated that other nonhuman animal caregivers, animal welfare employees, might experience mental health outcomes similar to those in analogous caregiving occupations. This study investigated employee mental health at a Canadian animal welfare organization using five validated mental health inst…

Indigenous HIV Prevention Beliefs and Practices Among Low-Earning Chinese Sex Workers as Context for Introducing Female Condoms and Other Novel Prevention Options
New interventions to reduce HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STI) among female sex workers are introduced into the context of women's existing prevention beliefs and practices. These indigenous practices affected implementation of our program to introduce female condoms to women in sex-work establishments in southern China. We used ethnographic field observations and in-depth interviews to document common prevention methods women reported…
Connecting the Dots
On 15 May 2013, 19 tornadoes occurred across north and central Texas, killing 6, injuring over 50, and causing more than $100 million in property damage. The majority of the impacts to life and property were the direct result of category-3 and category-4 enhanced Fujita scale (EF-3 and EF-4) tornadoes that affected the communities of Cleburne and Granbury, Texas. This study focuses on an examination of the north Texas integrated warning team (IWT…
Translation of the Risk Avoidance Partnership (RAP) for Implementation in Outpatient Drug Treatment Clinics
Scientific literature increasingly calls for studies to translate evidence-based interventions into real-world contexts balancing fidelity to the original design and fit to the new setting. The Risk Avoidance Partnership (RAP) is a health promotion intervention originally designed to train active drug users to become Peer Health Advocates. A theoretically driven approach was used to adapt RAP to fit implementation in outpatient methadone treatmen…
Female condom use in the rural sex industry in China
Changes in sexual attitudes and behaviors and resurgence of the sex industry in China have increased concerns about HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted infections (STI) epidemics. Little attention has been paid to the significant and growing sex industry in rural China. Promotion of barrier protection in this context is most effective to prevent STIs and pregnancy. The female condom (FC) is a barrier method that gives women more autonomy in its app…

Television Drama, Narrative Engagement and Audience Buying Behavior
In the past few years, the popularity of Korean television dramas, songs and movies has skyrocketed in countries of North and Southeast Asia. This huge wave of Korean pop culture is referred to as the Hanryu (the Korean wave). One of the most significant trendsetters of the Hanryu was the Korean television drama Winter Sonata, which was remarkably popular in every Asian country where it was broadcast. The present article investigates the percepti…
Looking‐Glass Self
The looking‐glass self is the most well‐known dimension of Charles Horton Cooley's early, seminal conceptualization of what he called the social self. Cooley used the image of a mirror as a metaphor for the way in which people's self‐concepts are influenced by their imputations of how they are perceived by others. Cooley distinguished three “principal elements” of the looking‐glass self: “the imagination of our appearance to the other person; the…
When Ontologies Collide it's a Slippery Slide
ization through the mediating of the trauma model in survivor therapy, while Kitzinger addresses the role of the media in perpetuating a completely different set of understandings. This is rooted, I believe, in a perhaps even more fundamental difference. The authors have different ontologies. Davis's is reflexively and consistently constructionist and Kitzinger's is, perhaps inadvertently, objectivist at its core. After discussing each scholar's …
