Development and validation of the Safe (Socially Ascribed intersectional identities For Equity) questionnaire
Traditional questionnaires do not capture the complexity of how people are viewed by others and grouped into categories on the basis of what is inferred (or not) about them. This is critical in applying an intersectionality framework in research because people are negatively impacted because of "who they are" but also based on "how others see them." The purpose of this project was to develop and validate a questionnaire, grounded in intersectiona…
The Relationship Between Multimorbidity and Self-Reported Health Among Community-Dwelling Older Adults and the Factors that Shape This Relationship
Self-reported health is a common measure predictive of morbidity and mortality among adults. Many factors are known to be associated with self-reported health including the number of chronic conditions (i.e., multimorbidity). While the association between self-reported health and morbidity and mortality has been well-established, the factors that shape the relationship with self-reported health (e.g., modify and mediate) are poorly understood. Fu…
Primary care providers’ lived experiences of genetics in practice
To effectively translate genetic advances into practice, engagement of primary care providers (PCPs) is essential. Using a qualitative, phenomenological methodology, we analyzed key informant interviews and focus groups designed to explore perspectives of urban and rural PCPs. PCPs endorsed a responsibility to integrate genetics into their practices and expected advances in genetic medicine to expand. However, PCPs reported limited knowledge and …
In search of academic legitimacy
Much has changed since the 1960s when the first scholarship on contemporary graffiti appeared. The current paper is an attempt to outline and contextualize a number of recurrent challenges facing researchers of graffiti and street art, as well as developments that have taken place in this scholarly field. The aim of creating this outline is to assist in increasing the amount, and improving the quality, of future scholarship on graffiti and street…

This article examines the Community Foundation of Southeast Michigan's launch of a broad-based, multilayered strategy to promote youth leadership in the region, and showcases what can be accomplished when foundations invest in such strategies. In partnership with the University of Michigan School of Social Work and the Dorothy A. Johnson
Gangs, Globalization, and Critical Security Studies
Working on gang issues as a whole demands that I, as a scholar, engage different scales that collapse individual and community, local and global, and that make action and study into indistinguishable partners. It is not just that we need to facilitate one woman’s path toward finding an academic who will help her husband and their family; we need to work on the bigger thing and ask the Department of State to hold itself to at least the same (flawe…
Dual restructuring
Beginning in 1985 the Government of Canada significantly restructured and retrenched the welfare state, relatively undeterred by public or organised opposition. The ability of Canadian civil society organisations (CSOs) to influence the outcomes of reform was minimal at the best of times, and has diminished over time. In part, this stems from the underlying fragility of Canadian CSOs, even in their most activist period. Over the past three decade…
Financing the third sector
Civil society organizations (nonprofits, social enterprises, voluntary, community and charitable organizations) are not only an integral part of the delivery of health, education, social, and other services in most developed countries, but also critical contributors to a healthy democracy and a strong economy. How civil society organizations are financed is a key aspect of their sustainability. Such financing is undergoing significant innovation …
Repenser les relations entre gouvernement et secteur bénévole
Au cours des 10 dernières années, les gouvernements ont réalisé que les nouvelles formes de gouvernance nécessitent une plus grande coopération avec les acteurs de la société civile. L’amélioration de ses relations avec le secteur bénévole et communautaire est maintenant considérée comme un élément clé d’une bonne gestion des affaires publiques. À la fois au Canada et au Québec, les gouvernements ont utilisé un instrument politique innovateur, un…
A Civil Society? Collective Actors in Canadian Political Life
A Civil Society? Collective Actors in Canadian Political Life, Miriam Smith, Peterborough: Broadview Press, 2005, pp. 224.A curious thing about Canadian political science is that, compared to its American or British counterparts, it offers very little analysis of collective action outside of political parties. Even the interest groups in Canada don't call themselves interest groups any more. So, when a book on collective actors by a respected sch…
The snakes and ladders of accountability
Although governing in Canada is in transition towards a model of horizontal “governance” that emphasizes collaboration with a variety of non‐governmental actors, the contracting culture and its associated accountability regime remain a legacy of “new public management.” As part of this transition, however, contracting is being used not only as a means to control performance but also as a governance tool to guide the development of more collaborat…

Miyamoto Yuriko was born in Tokyo as Chūjō Yuri on 13 February 1899. Her father, Seiichirō, a graduate of Tokyo Imperial University, became one of Japan's leading modern architects; her mother, Yoshie, was the daughter of the famous moral philosopher Nishimura Shigeki, and a graduate of the aristocratic Gakushūin school. During Yuriko's early childhood, especially during the years when her father was away in England studying at Cambridge Universi…
Locus of control and the generality of learned helplessness in humans
To examine the effects of learned helplessness on tasks used to assess the aftereffects of stress, 42 internal and external undergraduates (selected by scores on a brief form of Rotter's Internalâ External Locus of Control Scale) were pretreated with contingent or noncontingent nonnoxious reinforcement using a yoking procedure to control for amount of trials and reinforcement. Both internal and external noncontingent Ss performed more poorly on s…
