Laying the Foundations for Co‐Design
The Impact of Health and Social Care Integration on Children and Young People’s Outcomes
The findings highlight the complexity in attributing changes in outcomes to a specific intervention or reform, particularly in the presence of wider socio-economic factors. Understanding the influence of systems-level change may not be fully possible using routinely collected data alone, and any methods used to assess impact should be underpinned by an underlying theory of change
Adapting ripple effects mapping for evaluating public health initiatives in complex systems
Ripple effects mapping is a qualitative and participatory method, developed to capture the dynamic nature and interacting elements of an initiative, and its impacts. We present our experiences of using ripple effects mapping to evaluate complex public health initiatives across seven case studies in Bradford, UK. Seven researchers engaged in qualitative reflective practice to capture their individual experiences of using ripple effects mapping wit…
Children’s Rights in Children’s Hearings
The Scottish Children’s Hearings System makes life-changing decisions regarding the care and protection of children up to 18 years of age referred due to a need for support – because of offending behaviour or a risk to their physical or emotional safety. In March 2020, due to the covid -19 crisis, Hearings underwent one of the most significant changes since their inception: proceedings shifted to an online conferencing platform (“virtual hearings…
Academic boredom, engagement and the achievement of undergraduate students at university
This review and synthesis of relevant literature considers the nature of boredom and boredom proneness in general terms before focusing on how the academic boredom experienced by undergraduates at university is sufficiently different from other known types to warrant a unique and important field of study. Derived from within the literature itself, academic boredom is commonly presented as a largely negative and deactivating achievement-related em…
Contemporary Feminism and Women's Short Stories
The short story has received renewed attention and notable popular acclaim in the twenty-first century. This book offers a wide-ranging survey of contemporary women’s short stories and introduces a new way of theorising feminism in the genre through the concept of ‘the moment’. By considering the prominent themes of motherhood, marriage, domesticity, sexuality, masculinity and femininity, this work engages with a spectrum of issues that are centr…
Motherhood
This chapter commences by contextualising the politics of motherhood in light of the feminist writings of Shulamith Firestone, Adrienne Rich and Julia Kristeva. The literary analysis focuses on the control of women’s bodies and societal expectations in the work of Roberts and how the critique of motherhood apparent in these narratives reflects a tendency of much second-wave feminist thought. The second section considers the writings of Simpson an…
Masculinity
Since the 1980s masculinity, more specifically ‘hegemonic masculinity’ has been a focal point of gender and sexuality discourses. The short story writings of Mantel, Hislop, and most particularly, Tremain, reflect, critique and problematize such understandings of masculinity. This chapter is shaped around three key areas that are often seen as defining masculinity: work, sexuality and the differences between male and female bodies. As with the hi…
Lovers of liberty’?Prostitution and the Politics of Choice in Emma Donoghue’s Slammerkin
This article explores the way in which Emma Donoghue’s novel Slammerkin (2000) reflects long-standing feminist debates surrounding prostitution. We argue that not only does Donoghue’s portrayal of prostitution resist the pro versus anti dichotomy in which feminist perspectives on sex work are so often narrowly situated, but Slammerkin also foregrounds the complexity with which the politics of choice intersects with women’s decision to sell their …
Ali Smith
As the first book dedicated entirely to discussing the work of the contemporary Scottish writer, Ali Smith: Contemporary Critical Perspectives, edited by Monica Germanà and Emily Horton, marks an important moment in academic attention to Smith. This edited collection positions Smith at the heart of contemporary writing and amid other acclaimed authors, including Sarah Waters, Ian McEwan, Salman Rushdie, and Andrea Levy. As such, it is a timely an…
The British and Irish short story handbook
The British and Irish Short Story Handbook is a welcome addition to the burgeoning field of short story criticism, a field that has developed with vibrant momentum since the turn of the millennium
Time spent in bed at night by care-home residents
This paper examines the amount of time that care-home residents spend in bed at night, focusing on how residents' bedtimes and getting-up times are managed. Using a mixed-methods approach, diary data were collected over 14 days from 125 residents in ten care homes in South East England. The findings indicate that residents spent, on average, nearly 11 hours in bed at night, significantly more time than was spent sleeping. There was greater varian…
