Examining neurophysiological responses to immersive nature and environmental images
Attention Restoration Theory (ART) suggests that exposure to natural environments can restore attentional resources. While several studies have explored the cognitive benefits of nature, the neural processes underlying ART remain underexplored. We used electroencephalography (EEG) to measure the P300 component, a widely studied event-related brain potential. We hypothesized that exposure to nature would increase the amplitude of the P300, suggest…
A Structural Examination of Racial Differences in Pharmacologic Treatment Among Opioid Exposed Infants
Learning sport
Background Generally, understandings of learning have predominantly been framed as knowledge transfer from the coach to the learner, and when there are discussions of learning the focus tends to be on coaches and coaching. As a consequence, learning has had little direct attention, so here the focus is on learning sport.Purpose This article presents a site-ontological practice theory perspective on learning sport, extending beyond traditional epi…
Negotiating for Autonomy
More autonomous humanitarian international nongovernmental organizations (INGOs) have greater capacity to determine who receives aid among conflict- and crisis-affected populations than their donor-following counterparts. The latter are more likely to become instruments of states seeking geostrategic influence in places like Syria and Ukraine. Drawing on more than 120 interviews with INGO and donor agency workers, 10 months of political ethnograp…
Localization in World Politics
This Introduction and Special Forum highlight the importance of localization for the study of world politics, both as a theoretical concept in international relations research on norms and as a set of practices and policies. The article tackles four questions: (1) Why has localization become a focus of scholarly and policy attention? (2) What are the historical precursors of localization? (3) What is being “localized” and who/what is “local”? And…
Healthy by Nature
Research suggests that spending time in nature is associated with numerous human behavioral health benefits, including improved executive functioning abilities, enhanced recovery from stressful situations, better mental health, and better educational outcomes. Greener neighborhoods also tend to have positive population-level health outcomes. Although promising, much of this research has focused primarily on selective populations and fails to acco…
Burden of long Covid among adults experiencing sheltered homelessness
Shelter residents reported a high prevalence of symptoms 30 + days after their SARS-CoV-2 detection, though few accessed medical care for persistent illness. The impact of COVID-19 extends beyond acute illness and may exacerbate existing challenges that marginalized populations face in maintaining their health and wellbeing
Going local without localization
International aid organizations and donors have committed to localize aid by empowering local actors to deliver and lead in humanitarian response. While international actors do often rely on local actors for aid delivery, their progress on shifting authority falls short. Scholars suggest that while localizing aid may be desirable, the organizational imperatives of international actors and aid’s colonial past and present make it difficult at best.…
Talk Is Cheap
In May 2016, as attacks on health care in armed conflicts were increasing globally, the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 2286, demanding warring parties comply with their international obligations to prevent and address such attacks. The resolution was adopted unanimously by the Council and cosponsored by eightyfive UN member states. New data collection and public attention on attacks against health care at the time signaled tha…
Lessons Learned through Implementing Sars-CoV-2 Testing and Isolation for People Experiencing Homelessness in Congregate Shelters
Our findings informed development of coronavirus disease 2019 surveillance testing and isolation protocols for PEH and highlight the value of community partnerships in nimbly responding to the pandemic
Compromising Aid to Protect International Staff
Scholars expect operational compromises by humanitarian organizations to follow attacks on aid workers. However, in response to the War in Syria, organizations compromised aid and adopted clandestine, cross-border, remote management, and conflict-actor aligned approaches, which best protected international aid workers. This was despite declining rates of attack against them, relative to their national staff counterparts. This article asks why int…
Self-Rated Health and Age-Related Differences in Ambulatory Blood Pressure
OBJECTIVE: Despite the well-established association between self-rated health (SRH) and health, little is known about the potential psychobiological mechanisms responsible for such links and if these associations differ by age. The main goals of this study were to investigate the links between SRH and ambulatory blood pressure (ABP), if age moderated the risk, and the health behavior/affective mechanisms responsible for such links. METHODS: A tot…
Self-Rated Health and Inflammation
OBJECTIVE: Despite its simplicity, single-item measures of self-rated health have been associated with mortality independent of objective health conditions. However, little is known about the mechanisms potentially responsible for such associations. This study tested the association between self-rated heath and inflammatory markers as biological pathways, and whether sleep quality and/or depression statistically mediated such links. METHOD: Eight…
