Indigenous health organizations, Indigenous community resurgence, and the reclamation of place in urban areas
Research around the world has been nearly unanimous about the positive impacts of Indigenous‐led health organizations on Indigenous peoples' qualitative experiences in health care, in the face of often negative experiences in non‐Indigenous‐led health care settings. Urban environments, including health care environments, are areas of increasing attention with regard to Indigenous peoples' health in Canada. In this study, which took place in the n…

How do homeless adults change their lives after completing an intensive job-skills program? A prospective study
Among people experiencing homelessness, difficulty securing housing is often compounded by concurrent challenges including unemployment, chronic illness, criminal justice involvement, and victimization. The Moving Ahead Program (MAP) is a vocational rehabilitation program that seeks to help adults facing these challenges to secure competitive employment. We prospectively studied how MAP graduates (N = 97) changed from the beginning of MAP to abou…
Representations of Indigenous Peoples and Use of Pain Medication in Canadian News Media
Using media coverage of the withdrawal of OxyContin in Canada in 2011 and 2012 as an example, this article describes a systematic analysis of how news media depict First Nations peoples in Canada.

In First Nations communities, problematic substance use is discussed without considering the context of pain management, broad generali…

Actor-observer asymmetries in explanations of behavior
Traditional attribution theory conceptualizes explanations of behavior as referring to either dispositional or situational causes. An alternative approach, the folk-conceptual theory of behavior explanation, distinguishes multiple discrete modes of explanation and specific features within each mode. Because attribution theory and the folk-conceptual theory carve up behavior explanations in distinct ways, they offer very different predictions abou…

Premature adolescent autonomy
Premature autonomy describes a developmental dynamic where parents of high‐risk adolescents reduce their involvement and guidance when confronted with challenges of problem behaviour and the influence of deviant friendships. This dynamic was tested on the sample of Oregon Youth Study boys ( N =206), whose family management practices and friendships were observed on videotaped interaction tasks. Latent growth curve models were used to examine long…
The family check-up with high-risk young adolescents
Conceptual structure and social functions of behavior explanations
The traditional approach to studying behavior explanations involves treating them as either person causes or situation causes and assessing them by using rating scales. An analysis of people's free-response behavior explanations reveals, however, that the conceptual distinctions people use in their explanations are more complex and sophisticated than the person-situation dichotomy suggests. The authors, therefore, introduce a model of the concept…
