Police leadership at the political interface: A systematic literature review
The politics-administration dichotomy, central to public management, is relatively neglected in policing. This systematic review examined this concept through the understandings, roles and relationships police have with elected politicians in Westminster governmental systems. It also examines what political skills, particularly political astuteness, senior police use in exercising their leadership when working with politicians. The review found t…
Cardiac Startle Response and Clinical Outcomes in Preschool Children With Fragile X Syndrome and Autism Spectrum Disorder
Objective: Poor physiological regulation in response to threat is linked to multiple negative developmental outcomes including anxiety, which is highly prevalent and impairing in young children with neurodevelopmental disabilities like fragile X syndrome (FXS) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The present study contrasted cardiac startle response in pre-school-aged children with FXS, with and without ASD, to children with non-syndromic ASD (nsA…

A Thesaurus of Old English: The Pilot Study for the Glasgow Historical Thesaurus
The Thesaurus of Old English ( TOE ), first published in 1995, had its origins in a body of slips derived from standard dictionaries, principally the Clark Hall and Merritt Concise Anglo-Saxon Dictionary and the Bosworth-Toller volumes. These slips were made to supply the Glasgow Historical Thesaurus ( HT ) project (1965–2009) with a firmer idea of the range and totality of Old English vocabulary than available in the OED . In 1976 the decision w…
Trajectories of Heart Activity Across Infancy to Early Childhood Differentially Predict Autism and Anxiety Symptoms in Fragile X Syndrome
Background: Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a monogenic disorder characterized by high rates of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and anxiety. A longstanding "hyperarousal hypothesis" in FXS has argued that ANS dysfunction underpins many symptoms of FXS. However, the developmental onset and trajectory of ANS dysfunction, as well as the consequences of ANS dysfunction on later psychiatric symptoms, remain poorly understood in FXS. Insight into the emerge…
The leadership of place and people in the new English combined authorities
This paper explores the theory and early practice of elected political leadership in the first six English mayoral combined authorities (CAs). It draws on the history of local government in England, policy documentation, and theory on leadership, place and institutional formation to analyse the early leadership of the metro-mayors from the perspective of the leadership of place. It suggests that public policy and the literature on political leade…

Public Opinion Towards the Lay Magistracy and the Sentencing Council Guidelines: The Effects of Information on Attitudes
Public opinion surveys have long documented public criticism of 'lenient' sentencers. There are two principal perceptions contributing to negative attitudes: a lack of community input the view that sentencers determine sentence according to their own views. This study embeds an experimental design within a representative survey of respondents in England and Wales (n=1,004), supplemented by laboratory-based work (n=230) and focus groups. Results d…
Video diaries: A tool to investigate sustainability-related learning in threshold spaces
This paper takes as a case study an undergraduate field class from a UK university to rural Uganda. It describes and evaluates the use of video diaries as a tool for investigating the process of transformative learning in the context of education for sustainability. The applicability of threshold concept theory to this learning is investigated. Results show the video diary technique to be much more successful in capturing the development of stude…

Franco-Ontarian Women and Multiple Positions of Identity and Belonging: A Study from Northern Ontario, Canada
While Putnam's communitarian conceptualization of social capital has significantly influenced our understanding of community cohesion, the concept of social capital is highly contested. Questions have been raised about the ways in which agency and power operate in a community's sense of connectedness. Within this critique, little attention has been paid to the conceptualization of cultural identity when framed in dominant constructions of social …
Structural violence and emotional health: A message from Easington, a former mining community in northern England
This discussion paper, written by a UK general practitioner and graduate student of anthropology, explores the uncomfortable relationship between institutionalised inequalities of wealth and opportunities, and emotional health, in a disadvantaged community in the north-east of England. The author begins by locating the thesis in the corpus of anthropological literature which acknowledges human suffering and refuses to adopt a position of cultural…
