Perceptual Learning: Policy Insights From Basic Research to Real-World Applications
Perceptual learning is the process by which experience alters how incoming sensory information is processed by the brain to give rise to behavior—it is critical for how humans educate children, train experts, treat diseases, and promote health and well-being throughout the lifespan. Knowledge of perceptual learning requires basic and applied research in humans and nonhuman animal models, which informs strategic targets for advancing applications.…
The Crisis of Housing Affordability: Kindness to People and Environmental Resilience
Cities in Aotearoa New Zealand face simultaneous crises: housing affordability and the climate emergency. Both issues are two sides of a single metaphorical coin. Humans depend on safe environments, but the unaffordable housing crisis has resulted in families living in cars, garages or within a single room contributing to preventable illnesses. The authors – a social work academic and an urban planner – argue that to be kind to people, we must eq…
Establishing a social work model for China’s rural vitalisation strategy
This article documents a social work education model from an emerging collaboration among scholars in China, Aotearoa New Zealand, and the United States to adapt Western and Indigenous Māori theories and practices to the Chinese context. To advance this model, we map our process by 1) outlining the challenges in China and comparing them to those in Aotearoa New Zealand and the United States; 2) summarising the social work history and culture in e…
Several steps/day indicators predict changes in anthropometric outcomes: HUB City Steps
Several descriptive indicators of steps/day may be useful for predicting anthropometric outcome changes. Further, manipulating steps/day data to address implausible values has little overall effect on the ability to predict these anthropometric changes
