A Systematic Review of Intergenerational Program Implementation Involving Young Children
There is increasing evidence that intergenerational programs (IGPs), which use shared activities to connect older and younger age groups, lead to educational and psychosocial benefits for young children. However, insufficient attention to implementation within the emerging, cross-disciplinary field limits understanding of how evidence-informed IGP practices support positive outcomes in early childhood. These difficulties impede the interpretation…
Agency Between Logics
Institutions create security regimes under the guise of protection, but these measures, even with the best intentions, can be problematic to execute due to competing logics, such as tensions between government regulations and institutional priorities. Data Protection Officers (DPOs) must navigate these conflicting logics, balancing data privacy with intuitional concerns. This article argues that DPOs can find power by identifying gaps between reg…
Practices That Support Enriching Interactions Between Young Children and Older Adults in a Co-Located Intergenerational Program
Research on intergenerational programs (IGPs) has documented cognitive, physical, and social benefits for older adults, and positive effects for children’s confidence, empathy, and attitudes toward aging. However, less is known about the specific practices and interactions that support the well-being and engagement of both participant groups. Adopting social capital as the theoretical framework, this mixed methods study explores the practices tha…

What is the Evidence of Young children’s Learning in Intergenerational Programs? A Scoping Review of the Literature
While the value of intergenerational programs (IGPs) for older people and society is well recognized, the evidence for young children’s learning is less conclusive. This scoping review aims to synthesize the published literature on IGPs to provide an account of the current state of knowledge about what young children are learning in IGPs. From 283 peer reviewed articles reporting on IGPs between older non-familial adults and children aged from bi…
Intersecting public management and social equity Introduction to the special issue of Public Management Review
This introduction to the special issue stems from the assumption that the field of public management is the necessary, missing catalyst to make tangible progress towards social equity. We begin by outlining the concept of social equity and highlighting the value of improving the field’s understanding of how we can use the foundations of public management to advance social equity principles, practices, and theories, across all forms of oppression.…

A Pivot to Quantum
While much of the world focuses on artificial intelligence, quantum technologies are emerging into the technological landscape with promises to revolutionize computing, communications, and measurement, rewriting the ways that we deal with and conceptualize surveillance, privacy, and security. To avoid a future in which powerful quantum technologies shape social practices and surveillance in problematic ways, we need to begin engaging with quantum…
The new scarlet letter
Motherhood in academia remains vastly underrepresented in both developed and developing countries. Key career opportunities for women often coincide with childbearing and child‐rearing years, limiting their consideration for these positions. This underrepresentation diminishes academic mothers' ability to contribute meaningfully to public administration (PA) and development issues that deeply impact them. Using comparative administrative law, we …
Societal implications of quantum technologies through a technocriticism of quantum key distribution
Advancement in quantum networking is becoming increasingly more sophisticated, with some arguing that a working quantum network may be reached by 2030. Just how these networks can and will come to be is still a work in progress, including how communications within those networks will be secured. While debates about the development of quantum networking often focus on technical specifications, less is written about their social impacts and the myr…
Teacher participation in young children’s dramatic play
Socio-dramatic play is an everyday occurrence in early childhood education as children create narratives together in shared imagined worlds. The teacher’s role in this type of play is less clear and this paper draws on a study using Lindqvist’s “playworlds” approach to gain insight into how teachers participate in children’s play. In applying Kravtsov and Kravtsova’s concept of children’s “double subjectivity” in dramatic play, the paper argues t…
Assessing Whole-Person Outcomes During Routine Clinical Care
OBJECTIVE: To identify and describe research conducted on the implementation, validity, and utility of whole-person outcome measures administered during routine inpatient or outpatient care. BACKGROUND: Incorporating information about patients' overall health, health-related quality of life, and global well-being into health care delivery has the potential to increase referral rates, enhance doctor-patient communication, and improve the detection…
Why the network coordinator matters
What drives citizens to coproduce public services? We critically assess the extant literature on organizational learning, innovation, and cross-sector partnerships and situate each within the coproduction frameworks. We theorize a moderated mediation model that reasons organizational learning and external partnerships drive innovation within public service networks, which in turn motivates both user and community coproduction. Networks are coordi…

Museums provide rich multimodal learning opportunities and long‐lasting memories for children and teachers who participate in museum excursions and outreach programs. Museum programs for preschool children embed hands‐on opportunities to engage children with new and diverse artefacts. Interactions in museum settings provide opportunities for adults and children to collaborate in learning. Our aim in this project was to explore the elements of mus…

Citizen participation matters. Bureaucratic discretion matters more
New Public Governance theory increases citizen participation and expands bureaucrats' roles in the work of government. Citizen participation creates new mechanisms for citizens to influence the policy process. Bureaucrats' expanded roles allow for broader bureaucratic discretion over policy implementation. When citizens' and bureaucrats' views on public management decisions collide, whose views prevail? Do citizen volunteers or bureaucrats have g…

Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Covid-19–Related Infections, Hospitalizations, and Deaths
BACKGROUND: Data suggest that the effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) differ among U.S. racial/ethnic groups. PURPOSE: To evaluate racial/ethnic disparities in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection rates and COVID-19 outcomes, factors contributing to disparities, and interventions to reduce them. DATA SOURCES: English-language articles in MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Cochrane Central Register of Controlle…
Preventing Unequal Health Outcomes in Covid-19
Not too deep
In May 2016, the United States Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) issued “Security Executive Agent Directive 5” (SEAD-5) (U.S. ODNI, 2016) authorizing the collection, use, and retention of social media information for the personnel security clearance process (PSCP), a process put in place to screen applicants for eligibility for national security and public trust positions. The incorporation of social media was a watershed mom…
Organizational Change and Security Clearance Reform
The Trusted Workforce 2.0 (TW2.0) initiative revamping the personnel security program made strides to implement the process of continuous evaluation (CE). CE isn't a new concept, though, but why did it take so long to implement? I argue TW2.0 built on previous momentum of evolutionary change to capitalize on a moment of punctuated equilibrium while utilizing best practices of designing for new technology. This paper will help to explain why riote…

Federalism, Government Liberalism, and Union Weakness in America
Unlike most other countries, in the United States, subnational governments (states) have substantial authority over collective bargaining and union organization laws. Because states compete for business investment and union (dis)organization likely has spillover effects beyond state borders, weak unions in one state may affect union organization in other states. We examine how union decline in one state is associated with union decline in neighbo…
A comparison of health disparities among transgender adults in Colorado (USA) by race and income
Transgender individuals face heightened risks for discrimination, harassment, and violence that impact their psychosocial well-being and physical health. However, few studies have thoroughly examined the general physical and mental health of transgender adults or within-group health differences by race/ethnicity and income. To that end, after controlling for health insurance status, age, and engagement in exercise, this study asks: (a) are transg…
Squandered in Real Time”
The United States places great emphasis on the public administration–politics dichotomy, but what happens to public management when the dichotomy breaks down? The authors critically evaluate the public management frameworks, New Public Management and New Public Governance, in the context of two major public management failures: the U.S. State of Illinois Budget Impasse during 2015–2017 and the COVID-19 Pandemic. A definition of public management …

Utility of the advocacy coalition framework in a regional budget crisis
The advocacy coalition framework predicts that externally controlled events, such as jurisdictional shifts, can open venues for policy change within a policy subsystem. Advocacy coalitions may opt to look outside of their traditional decision-making venue for a more suitable venue. Yet, how and when coalitions use their political resources during this venue shift is unclear. We examine how coalitions leverage policy venues and resources when thei…
LGBTQ Organizing Beyond “Low-Hanging Fruit
Safe schools coalitions (SSCs) are community-based organizations aimed at changing school policy and broader communities to be more responsive to the needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer youth. Despite the prevalence of these coalitions, little is known about their organizing work. Using case study methods, semistructured interviews were conducted with 9 SSC leaders in 3 states in the South. Five themes identified were: formati…
Knowing Russia's Convicts
The essay explores the significance of questions of knowledge to the depiction of prisoners in three prominent katorga narratives from the second half of the nineteenth century: Dostoevskii's Notes from the House of the Dead, Kennan's Siberia and the Exile System, and Chekhov's Sakhalin Island. Comparing the different discourses of unknowability these authors employ, it argues that the relationship of the writers or narrators to the outcast statu…
Recalling the Dead
From recurring characters to the retelling of stories, repetition plays a central role in Varlam Shalamov'sKolymskie rasskazy(Kolyma Tales). Sarah J. Young examines how repetition functions in Shalamov's collections of short stories as an indicator of trauma, by foregrounding the tensions created by the erosion of identity in the labor camp and its connection to the gulag survivor/narrator's problematic relationship to memory. At the same time, r…

Literacies for Surveillance
In September 2013, civilian contractor Aaron Alexis entered the Washington Navy Yard and murdered twelve people before being fatally shot by police. This incident, together with an incident three months earlier involving Edward Snowden, caused the U.S. government to critically examine their background investigation (BI) process; because both Snowden and Alexis had supposedly slipped through the cracks of their investigations, there must be some f…

Slipping through the cracks
Although Edward Snowden set out to expose the extent of the United States (US) government’s surveillance practices so that the public would be aware of the magnitude of the country’s information gathering, Snowden’s actions have actually, at least in the case of background investigations, revealed an inability for the US government to gather all desired information for surveillance purposes. This lack of ability to gain access to information has …

Purposive sampling
BACKGROUND: Purposive sampling has a long developmental history and there are as many views that it is simple and straightforward as there are about its complexity. The reason for purposive sampling is the better matching of the sample to the aims and objectives of the research, thus improving the rigour of the study and trustworthiness of the data and results. Four aspects to this concept have previously been described: credibility, transferabil…
