Evidencing the relational and situated aspects of complex social systems affecting health: Introducing an integrated mixed methods approach to understand school mental health
Existing strategies for assessing adolescent mental health overlook the complex social and emotional contexts that young people navigate. Traditional methods focus on individuals, with less consideration of social and environmental factors. This paper presents a novel approach to understand relational and situated aspects of social systems and their influence on adolescent wellbeing. We developed and applied an integrated mixed methods approach t…
The Simple University Belonging Scale: Working towards a measure of postsecondary students’ sense of belonging
Sense of belonging is a critical construct that impacts postsecondary students’ development and well-being. Despite its influence on student engagement, retention, and overall academic success in higher education, existing instruments measuring this construct are not specifically designed for postsecondary students. A brief, unidimensional instrument specifically validated for postsecondary students requires robust psychometric analyses to ensure…
The Shape of Morality: Transformed Bodies as Sites of Moral Instruction in Gervase of Tilbury’s Otia Imperialia and Gerald of Wales’s Topographia Hibernica
Many stories of monstrous humans survive to us from the medieval Latin West. These stories, known as mirabilia (tales of marvels), were used to inspire admiratio (wonder) in audiences, and aid in their reception of edifying messages within the text. Stories of human–animal transformations leant on the meanings of animals as symbols, and transposed these meanings onto the humans they discussed. This article examines human–animal transformations in…
Towards nature-positive engineering: Nature-based solutions in attenuating coastal hydrometeorological hazards
Coastal and deltaic regions are highly vulnerable to hydrometeorological hazards such as storms, flooding, and extreme temperatures—risks that are intensifying under climate change. While hard engineering structures (e.g. levees, seawalls) remain widely used, they can be costly, ecologically disruptive, and may exacerbate hazard complexity. Nature-based solutions (NbS), including mangroves, salt marshes, and other coastal ecosystems, offer sustai…
Shifting the boundary in women’s sport: The case of Australian rules football
Consumer engagement and place identity in online travel forums
The quest to understand the formation and management of relationships between a firm and consumers in online contexts represents a priority for both researchers and practitioners. Consumer engagement is central to furthering such understanding and encouraging satisfaction, commitment, and trust, as popular enabling variables. Recent calls to broaden and deepen consumer engagement nomological networks motivate the current study, which aims to incl…
Above the Color Line: W. E. B. Du Bois’s Otherworldly Perspective and a New Racial Order
Though W. E. B. Du Bois was critical of traditional religion, he understood the power of religious orientations to the world, including religious attitudes of faith and hope. Although many scholars have commented on Du Bois’s secular faith, few have understood the secular, scientific sources that he used to develop it. In this article, we examine how Du Bois built a post-Christian otherworldly perspective in part by drawing from popular science w…
Mechanisms of Cardiometabolic Health Outcomes and Disparities: What Characteristics of Chronic Stressors are Linked to HPA-Axis Dysregulation
Objectives: Chronic stressors are associated with cardiometabolic health conditions and disparities. Mechanisms linking stressors and health remain poorly understood. Methods: Two cohort studies (Cardiac Rehabilitation And The Experience [CREATE] and Tracking Risk Identification for Adult Diabetes [TRIAD]) with harmonized variables were used to examine relationships between six types of chronic stressors in adulthood and Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Ad…
Science, Technology, and the Religious Imagination in Modern Europe and America: An Inquiry
This article points to the surprising role of secular scientific ideas in stimulating new metaphors and ways of thinking about religious concepts. It examines three cases during the last century in Europe and America—how religious people selectively used ideas about electricity, how they re-purposed ideas related to higher-dimensional space, and how they deployed uncanny ideas in quantum mechanics. It shows that many have used these scientific id…
The Restructuring of South American Soy and Beef Production and Trade Under Changing Environmental Regulations
In response to the extensive loss of forests caused by soy and cattle expansion in South America, several countries have increased their legal restrictions on deforestation, and stepped up their enforcement. In addition, in the Brazilian Amazon, new private agreements were initiated in 2006 and 2009 to limit the purchase of soy and cattle linked with deforestation. One concern is that such policies, because they are spatially heterogeneous or foc…
Seeing Things: Science, the Fourth Dimension, and Modern Enchantment
RELIGIOUS DOUBT AND FEELINGS OF UNCERTAINTY were common in the nineteenth century, but only occasionally did they become so acute that they produced the kind of despair and paralysis described by C.Howard Hinton (1853-1907), who at one point found himself unable to say or do anything at all.At the Rugby School and then Oxford for bachelor's and master's degrees, Hinton wrote letters home about his deteriorating condition.The first indication that…

On the evaluation of teaching and learning in higher education: A multicultural inquiry
The aim of the study was to develop a model of positive word‐of‐mouth (WoM) intentions in a higher education context. WoM was found to be directly influenced by satisfaction levels and indirectly by antecedents of satisfaction, namely positive and negative emotions and perceptions of performance. The model provided a good fit to the data and explained 58% of the variance in WoM intentions. When the model was tested on samples of domestic and inte…

Self Determination Theory and the Wine Club Attribute Formation Process
A Measured Faith: Edwin Starbuck, William James, and the Scientific Reform of Religious Experience
A number of recent studies have drawn attention to how the study of religion and religious seeking were intertwined in European and American cultures in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Ann Taves, Leigh Schmidt and Hans Kippenberg, for example, have pointed to ways that particularly Protestant anxieties and dilemmas shaped scholarly thinking about categories such as experience and “mysticism.” Scholars have been less interested, however, i…
Ethnic Status and Adolescent Self-Evaluations: An Extension of Research on Minority Self-Esteem
This paper extends the study of ethnic status and self-esteem, traditionally restricted to blacks, to encompass Chicanos, and re-examines arguments about the impact of racial consonance and dissonance on perceived racial mistreatment and self-esteem. The results support the conclusion that ethnic minorities in the United States do not suffer from low self-esteem relative to whites, despite the fact that they do experience insults based on their s…
