The agentic ways children, their families and their community sustain participation in occupations in the context of poverty
The influence of poverty on children’s patterns of participation in occupations, their well-being, and potential
Structural and functional social support in UK military veterans during the Covid-19 pandemic and associations with mental health and wellbeing
This study has enhanced our understanding of social support among veterans and its implications for health and wellbeing. This knowledge is essential for advising the development of psychosocial interventions and policies to improve the psychological wellbeing of veterans in future pandemics and more broadly in their daily lives
Multi-institutional exploration of pediatric residents’ perspectives on anti-racism curricula
Our multi-institutional study affirms the need for pediatric resident anti-racism education, promotes co-creation as a method to affect culture change, and provides practical strategies for curricular design and implementation
An international scoping review on inclusive education from multiple perspectives
A human rights approach to inclusive education acknowledges that every learner has a fundamental right to access educational opportunities. For this scoping review, inclusion is defined from an occupational perspective as a concern with what people do together. The purpose of the study was to investigate the ways people can act to influence inclusion from the viewpoint of children, under the age of 18, parents, classroom and therapy staff and oth…
The Contributing Role of Family, School, and Peer Supportive Relationships in Protecting the Mental Wellbeing of Children and Adolescents
Globally, mental disorders are the leading cause of disability in children and adolescents. Previous research has demonstrated that supportive relationships are a key protective factor against poor mental health in children, particularly amongst those who have experienced adversity. However, fewer studies have examined the relative impact of different types of supportive relationships. The current study examined the association between level of f…
John Wesley and the Education of Children
John Wesley's attitude to, and involvement with, the education of children has not so far received the attention that it deserves. ‘Kingswood School’ may readily spring to the mind of the non-specialist, together perhaps with Wesley's aphorism that ‘he who plays as a child will play as a man’. In this detailed and wide-ranging study, her first venture into book-length publication, Linda Ryan not only describes and critiques Wesley's thinking and …
The ways poverty influences a tamaiti/child’s patterns of participation
Much is known about the negative experiences and long-term effects of persistent poverty on the health and well-being of tamariki/children. What is less well understood is how poverty affects their participation in and patterns of occupation. There appears to be a transactional relationship between poverty, health, and occupation that is complex, with child poverty associated with risk of occupational deprivation. However, evidence to support the…
Traditional Medicine and Primary Health Care in Sri Lanka
Primary Health Care was launched on the international stage by the World Health Organization's Alma Ata Declaration of 1978. This paper begins by unpicking the concept of primary health care as it evolved after Alma Ata and then explores its implementation in Sri Lanka and the extent to which Ayurveda (a blanket term for the traditional medical systems of Sri Lanka) has been integrated into the government health care system. The substantive part …
Violent behavior among military reservists
Large numbers of British and American Reservists have been deployed to operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Little is known about the impact of deployment and combat exposure on violent behavior in Reservists. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of self-reported violent behavior among a representative sample of United Kingdom Reservists, the risk factors associated with violence and the impact of deployment and combat exposur…
Wesley and the People Called Methodists
Commentary on
My commentary begins with consideration of the methodology used, discussing this in relation to two key facets of the study findings. I compare Asbjørnslett and Bekken’s findings to those of my own study, which revealed the presence of particular skills used by community members that enable one another to participate. I situate the theme of people’s inclusive actions to current understandings about the notion of altruism. I conclude with referenc…
Communities with participation-enabling skills
Many ideas about participation in rehabilitation literature focus inwards towards individuals, or individuals and their family, acting in but apart from their environment. Authors position individuals as “participating in” occupations or social settings, or point towards the outcomes for those who do or do not participate. This perspective arguably contributes to occupational injustices, hampering positive change. Literature has not furnished a b…
Discovering Tuberculosis. A Global History, 1900 to the Present
Tuberculosis (TB), as Christian McMillen points out at the start of this volume, kills one-and-a-half to two million people every year, and yet, since the 1940s, the means to cure it have been available: antibiotics work. Why then are there still millions of people suffering and dying from this curable disease in the twenty-first century? This is the question that McMillen sets out to answer, and he does so with commanding knowledge and compassio…

OP92 The Impact of Military Deployment, Combat Experiences and Post-Deployment Mental Health Problems on Violent Behaviour among UK Military Personnel
Background There is considerable media, political and public interest on both sides of the Atlantic in an alleged rise in violence among military personnel returned from conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. This study explores violence among a large sample of UK military personnel, a proportion of whom had been deployed to Iraq/Afghanistan. The aims were to estimate the prevalence of self-reported violence, examine the impact of deployment and comb…
Establishing and Evaluating the Key Functions of an Interactive Systems Framework Using an Assets‐Getting to Outcomes Intervention
Community practitioners can face difficulty in achieving outcomes demonstrated by prevention science. Building a community practitioner's prevention capacity—the knowledge and skills needed to conduct critical prevention practices—could improve the quality of prevention and its outcomes. The purpose of this article is to: (1) describe how an intervention called Assets‐Getting To Outcomes (AGTO) was used to establish the key functions of the ISF a…

Unmet expectations in primary care and the agreement between doctor and patient
Background Questionnaires completed respectively by doctor and patient may give conflicting views of what actions the doctor took during a consultation in primary care. This disagreement will affect an assessment of whether patient expectations of care were met, and may itself be influenced by fulfilment of expectations. Objective To investigate how patient expectations, and patient and doctor reports of doctor's actions in a primary care setting…
Heroines of lonely outposts or tools of the empire? British nurses in Britain's model colony
In 1878 two ‘Nightingale’ nurses arrived in the British colony of Ceylon to initiate a training programme for indigenous women in the skills and values of what was then termed ‘scientific nursing’. These two women were the first of a succession of British women who went to the colony to nurse in its hospitals and to train Ceylonese women for the profession. Using the official records of the colonial government held in the National Archives, Kew a…
Tuberculosis, Housing and the Colonial State
As Tak-Wing Ngo has argued, the 'dominant' view of colonial rule in Hong Kong is one of a state which governed through 'a deliberate policy of indirect rule-a combination of economic laissez-faire and political non-intervention'. It depicts a government which was disengaged from the population, preferring to see the colony as a trading opportunity, whilst leaving the condition of the peoples it held sway over to the philanthropy and humanitariani…

Play Through the Eyes of Children
This paper reports on the use of cameras by children to record how they used their play environments during after-school play in an Australian provincial city. The study was one of six carried out concurrently to illuminate the complexity of children's after-school leisure and the environment in which it takes place. Twenty four children, twelve boys and twelve girls, were issued with disposable cameras to photograph their play in after-school ti…

Child Friendly Neighborhoods? A Critique of the Australian Suburb as an Environment for Growing up
This study is a critical exploration of the Australian suburb and its efficacy in providing for the play space needs of children. Experiences of Australians who grew up in suburbs and country towns between 1930 and 1960 are related to findings from formal research on the environmental needs of children. Modification of the physical form of Australian suburbs since the Second World War, brought about by technical and social change, has led to eros…
