Keeping Scholarly Papers Simple
Many published papers are difficult to read because their authors overuse words that are not widely understood or use new ‘invented’ terms that we could manage without. The first category includes many words that, although they have been used for centuries, are now uncommon and cause readers to pause and search dictionaries to continue. The second contains words that were invented to elevate the significance of claimed new approaches: they common…

This article summarizes proceedings of the State of the Science (SOS) Conference on Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Access for Mobile Rehabilitation, convened by the Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center on Mobile Rehabilitation (mRehab RERC), which is funded by the U.S. National Institute on Disability, Independent Living and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR). The conference sought to assess the current state of the field and…
Centering work: Toward more ‘social’ accounts of urban climate finance
In recent years, high-profile financial actors have developed a dizzying array of services and devices that promise to help cities devise ‘solutions’ to climate change. But what must happen for private finance to stand at the centre of urban climate solutionism, as these actors claim it does? This intervention suggests that placing private finance at the core of urban climate action requires a lot of work, which we refer to as centering work: the…

Climate change governance by central banks in an era of interlocking crises
In this article, we survey the literature on central bank action on climate change, focusing particularly on how the combined crises of COVID-19, inflation, and Ukraine have affected this action. We argue that the current situation is a critical juncture in which recent crises have created a highly indeterminate situation regarding what central banks might do regarding climate change. To date, some central banks have used these crises as opportun…
Biochar carbon markets: A mitigation deterrence threat
This article aims to add to the emerging empirical mitigation deterrence literature by drawing on ongoing research into a particular form of greenhouse gas removal technology – biochar – and associated biochar carbon markets. As such, the aim of this paper is to explore whether the UK carbon market for biochar, in practice is likely to contribute to delays in emissions reduction. In other words, we explore whether UK biochar carbon markets are (l…
Feasibility of Using a Mobile App Supported Executive Function Intervention in Military Service Members and Veterans with mTBI and Co-Occurring Psychological Conditions
This pilot study assessed the feasibility of using SwapMyMood, a smartphone application supporting evidence-based strategies for emotion regulation and problem-solving as a supplement to conventional care for military service members and veterans (SM/Vs) experiencing chronic symptoms of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and co-occurring psychological conditions. Eight military SM/Vs were recruited from an intensive outpatient program. Participan…
Understanding the functioning of urban climate finance through topologies of reach
Urban climate action is increasingly understood through the lens of finance: through financial agendas, interests, and practical tools which enable 'bankable' or profitable interventions. While the literature is rife with criticism of the normative foundations and exploitative effects of this approach, it fails to capture the variegated ways in which finance configures, and is configured by, particular urban sites and spaces of power. This contri…
Interrupted rhythms and uncertain futures: Mortgage finance and the (spatio-) temporalities of climate breakdown
As intensifying climate-related disasters strike cities across the United States, they are provoking rising concern for the stability of the U.S. housing market and broader financial system. How homeowners, mortgage lenders, federal institutions/regulators, and investors will variously encounter and manage climate risk is an urgent question for urban scholars, as is who might bear the costs of restabilizing mortgage finance under new breakdowns. …
Students’ Technology, Cognitive, and Content Knowledge (TSCCK) Instructional Model Effect on Cognitive Load and Learning Achievement
The application of scientific and technological approaches in education has been increasing year by year. We evaluated the effect of a TSCCK model based on the cognitive load theory on the cognitive load and learning achievement of vocational students: this model had six components: (1) analysis; (2) content development; (3) cloud development; (4) learning activity development; (5) model implementation; and (6) model revision. We used 62 students…
Central banks: Climate governors of last resort
The global and regional leadership of central banks in response to the COVID-19 pandemic has heightened public and political debates over their role in the governance of an arguably more fundamental planetary crisis: the climate crisis. Strategically harnessing the resources and reach of central banks would seem crucial to achieving a genuine step-change in the governance of the climate crisis. We consider how critical social scientists might con…
Clinician Perspectives on mRehab Interventions and Technologies for People with Disabilities in the United States: A National Survey
Mobile health and mobile rehabilitation (mHealth and mRehab) services and technologies have attracted considerable interest from healthcare providers, technology vendors, rehabilitation engineers, investors and policy makers in recent years. Successful adoption and use of mHealth/mRehab requires clinician support and engagement, including the ability to identify appropriate use cases and possible barriers to use for themselves and their patients,…

Mobile Healthcare and People with Disabilities: Current State and Future Needs
Significant health disparities exist between the general population and people with disabilities, particularly with respect to chronic health conditions.

Attempting to hold together these two objects of disciplinary enquiry, and becoming aware of the tendency to collapse one into the other inherent to International …
The performativity, performance and lively practices in financial stability press conferences
Contributing to current debates about financial performativity, this article seeks to explore the multiple and overlapping layers of performativity within central banking. The specific focus is upon the press conferences of the Bank of England, which coincide with the release of their Financial Stability Reports and results of their stress testing exercises. Three positions in the debate about financial performativity are identified and outlined …

Struggling toward sustainability: Considering grassroots development
Grassroots development (GRD) has long been seen as a way of involving the uninvolved stakeholders, a problem identified in other types of development. In examining traditional GRD this paper demonstrates that many of the neo‐liberal leanings that have been identified as problematic in macro‐scale development are also found in traditional GRD. These are shown to be detrimental to project outcomes. This paper's main contribution is to embed communi…

Neo-Liberal Strategies to Cut Costs in Settlement Services: Cost Recovery and Devolution
The author considers the range of settlement services funded by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) tracing the relative costs of settlement services in both Quebec and the rest of Canada. Government cost cutting and recovery strategies applied to settlement services are reviewed against an explanation of neo-liberalist ideology as it has been interpreted by the Federal government (1993-1997). Some of the arguments put forward against cost r…

Memories of the buffalo shooters: Joe Cooper and the Tiwi, 1895–1936
The Tiwi Islands, of which Melville is the largest, are located to the northwest of Dar win, Northern Territory. In the 1960s memories of the exploits of buffalo shooter Joe Cooper on Melville Island were still fresh in the minds of the Tiwi elders. These exploits made a serious impact on local society, bringing about changes that were, to some extent, to transform the future of the islanders. Cooper's presence in the islands brought about not on…

VI.— The Kalendar and Rite used by the Catholics since the time of Elizabeth
Accuracy in dating is of the first importance amongst the various contributions made by the antiquary for the use of the historian. The different commencements of the year and the introduction of the new style are well-known causes of confusion in dating events and documents; and it will perhaps not be devoid of interest if we now examine one portion of this large subject. The Catholics of this country in queen Elizabeth's time were in this matte…
XV.— Wall painting in St. Anselm's chapel in Canterbury cathedral church
I am enabled by the kindness of a friend in Canterbury to place before the Society a tracing and a photograph of the wall painting which has been recently discovered in the apse of St. Anselm's chapel in Canterbury cathedral church, together with a ground plan of the chapel, showing its position. The painting is worthy of attention: first on account of its antiquity, and secondly on account of the singular fact that for seven hundred years it has…
