Comfort in the canopy
People living in urban centres are exposed to higher levels of heat stress than those living outside of these areas; this is intensified by the urban heat island effect. Heat stress is a concern for the more vulnerable members of society and can exacerbate many medical conditions; excessive heat increases morbidity and mortality rates. Green infrastructure can help to mitigate against excessive urban heat and provide more thermally comfortable en…
Quantifying inter-dwelling air exchanges during fan pressurisation tests
Fan pressurisation tests (FPTs) are commonly used to measure air leakage in homes, to provide evidence for compliance with energy and ventilation standards in building regulations and inform energy models. The results are presented of 37 pressurisation and co-pressurisation tests on attached homes in the UK which measured inter-dwelling air exchanges during the FPTs. On average, 21% of the air leakage measured by the FPTs was found to be inter-dw…

Machine Scoring of Medical Students’ Written Clinical Reasoning
PURPOSE: Developing medical students' clinical reasoning requires a structured longitudinal curriculum with frequent targeted assessment and feedback. Performance-based assessments, which have the strongest validity evidence, are currently not feasible for this purpose because they are time-intensive to score. This study explored the potential of using machine learning technologies to score one such assessment-the diagnostic justification essay. …
Influenza vaccine uptake among at-risk adults (aged 16–64 years) in the UK
Uptake of the influenza vaccine by adults aged 16-64 years in a clinical at-risk group was substantially below the national ambitions. As a result, many individuals in the UK remain at high risk of developing severe influenza or complications. Given that people who are vulnerable to COVID-19 are also at increased risk of complications from influenza, during the 2020-2021 season, there is a heightened need for healthcare professionals across the U…
Is Perceived Autonomy Support Provided by a Coach Related to the Intention of Injury Preventative Behavior Among National and International Level Golfers
The successful implementation of injury prevention programs is reliant on athletes and coaches accepting, adopting, and complying with behaviors that reduce injury risk. Exploring factors, such as motivation and planned behavior, that might increase the frequency of these behaviors warrants investigation. The aim of the study was to investigate the complex interaction between perceived autonomy support, self-determined motivation, planned behavio…
A Wasted Eden
This research paper historicizes colonial water management policies in Kitui, Kenya, under the British colonial state. British development policy weaponized water shortages in order to enforce destocking amongst Kamba populations, leading to a wide array of ecological challenges. The paper contends that the state’s use of water as a tool of population management and land improvement was based on flawed ideas of society and environment that ultima…
The remaining unknowns
INTRODUCTION: In March 2020, the WHO released a Global Research Roadmap in an effort to coordinate and accelerate the global research response to combat COVID-19 based on deliberations of 400 experts across the world. Three months on, the disease and our understanding have both evolved significantly. As we now tackle a pandemic in very different contexts and with increased knowledge, we sought to build on the work of the WHO to gain a more curren…
Using Latent Semantic Analysis to Score Short Answer Constructed Responses
Automated scoring based on Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) has been successfully used to score essays and constrained short answer responses. Scoring tests that capture open-ended, short answer responses poses some challenges for machine learning approaches. We used LSA techniques to score short answer responses to the Consequences Test, a measure of creativity and divergent thinking that encourages a wide range of potential responses. Analyses de…
Contents & Introduction, Law Text Culture, volume 24
This essay introduces a large and diverse special issue on ‘The Acoustics of Justice: Law, Listening, Sound’. Until recently the acoustic dimensions of law and justice were not a major concern in the academy, either in self-consciously legal scholarship, or elsewhere. Things are changing, as indeed the size of this collection suggests. And our hope is that the work gathered here will go some way to addressing this deficit. Nevertheless, this intr…
Spreading News in 1904
The assassination of Nikolay Bobrikov, the Governor-General of Finland, on 16 June 1904 was a turning point in Finnish history. It was reported in hundreds, if not thousands, of newspapers worldwide. This article follows the spread of that news, particularly its spread over the first week after the assassination. The study draws on the digital newspaper repositories in Australia, Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Mexico, Sweden, the Net…
The Soundscape of Justice
Sound is a fact of life. But it is not a fact that contemporary legal thought has made any particular efforts to acknowledge, let alone to interrogate in any depth. As a community of jurists, we have become deaf to law and to the problem of the acoustic. We must begin to take responsibility for a dimension of legal experience that is no less real or significant simply because we barely attend to it. We need to begin to imagine a specifically acou…
The Professionalization of Faculty at Religious Colleges and Universities
As faculty become defined more by the professional norms of their discipline, the potential for conflict with the faith-based norms of religious colleges and universities should increase. Survey responses from over 1,900 faculty at six religious colleges and universities show that most faculty members support including religious criteria in hiring, contrary to professional, disciplinary norms, but most faculty reject religious constraints on acad…
Where Have All the Communes Gone? Religion's Effect on the Survival of Communes
Although previous research has found religion to have a significant effect on commune survival, these conclusions were typically based on bivariate analyses. Drawing on data collected by the Fellowship for Intentional Community, we present a multivariate analysis of communal survival using a comparatively large sample (N = 454) of modern American communes. Controlling for key factors suggested by the literature, we find that religion does not hav…
Faculty Attitudes on Integrating Faith and Learning at Religious Colleges and Universities
Reflecting the broader secularization debates, considerable research and disagreement exists over the degree to which religious higher education is distinct from its secular counterpart. One crucial and controversial way in which religious colleges and universities can differ from the secular academy is to integrate faith and learning by including faith-based perspectives in the core curriculum. Faculty surveys from six religious colleges and uni…
Comparing Strategies of the 2D Punic War
The period of time, 225-202 BC, in the Western Mediterranean, was a crucial turning point in the history of the Western World. The Roman Republic defeated its greatest rival, Carthage, and set the stage for Rome's 600 years domination of the Western World. It determined which culture, Greek/Roman or Semitic/Phoenician, would dominate the development of the Western World. This paper will focus on the strategic failure of Carthage and its military …
Every Sparrow That Falls
This article reports original research conducted among animal rights activists and elites in Switzerland and the United States, and the finding that activism functioned in activists' and elites' lives like religious belief. The study used reference sampling to select Swiss and American informants. Various articles and activists have identified both latent and manifest quasi-religious components in the contemporary movement. Hence, the research fo…
