Preventing Adverse Childhood Experiences
INTRODUCTION: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are associated with negative health and developmental outcomes, which can persist across generations. Home visitation is a key strategy to support families impacted by ACEs. Yet, evidence-based home visitation models may not fully capture the complexities, including culture, involved in preventing intergenerational ACEs. METHODS: Using a critical narrative review approach, data were extracted fro…
Nineteenth-Century Literature in Transition
Establishing a fresh critical paradigm, this volume shows how the 1850s was significantly defined by forms of increasing intellectual, class, and geographical mobility. It saw the flourishing of major Victorian writers, including George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell, Charles Dickens, W. M. Thackeray, Matthew Arnold, Charles Kingsley, Anthony Trollope, Tennyson, and Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning. Outputs by these writers were read alongside a v…
Serialising London in ‘Twice Round the Clock’
Catherine Waters argues that the growth of London, and the proliferation of cheap periodicals, particularly after the repeal of the newspaper stamp tax in 1855, generated a new form of ‘metropolitan travel writing’ representing ‘the lived rhythms of urban experience that is a distinctive development in the print culture of the 1850s’. Dickens’s Household Words, launched in 1850, published graphic sketches of city life that provided readers with a…

Earning the Trust of African American Communities to Increase Representation in Dementia Research
Black/African American populations are underrepresented as participants in dementia research. A major barrier to participation of African American older adults in dementia research is a tendency to distrust research institutions owing to both historical and contemporary racism. Building on the Ford framework, the objective of our study was to examine factors that influence participation in dementia research among African American older adults and…
The Oxford Handbook of Charles Dickens
This Handbook is a comprehensive and up-to-date collection on Dickens's life and works. It includes original chapters on all of Dickens's writing and new considerations of his contexts, from the social, political, and economic to the scientific, commercial, and religious. The contributions speak in new ways about his depictions of families, environmental degradation, and improvements of the industrial age, as well as the law, charity, and communi…
Nativity, Chronic Health Conditions, and Health Behaviors in Filipino Americans
Introduction: Nearly half of Americans have a chronic health condition related to unhealthful behavior. One in four Americans is an immigrant; yet immigrants’ health has been studied little, particularly among Asian American subpopulations. Methodology: Years lived in United States, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, walking, adiposity, and fruit/vegetable variables in the 2011-2012 California Health Interview Survey were analyzed to examine the in…

Infant Feeding Decision-Making and the Influences of Social Support Persons Among First-Time African American Mothers
How Community Trust Was Gained by an NGO in Malawi, Central Africa, to Mitigate the Impact of HIV/Aids
Trust is valuable social capital that is essential for effective partnerships to improve a community’s health. Yet, how to establish trust in culturally diverse communities is elusive for many researchers, practitioners, and agencies. The purpose of this qualitative study was to obtain perspectives of individuals working for a nongovernmental organization (NGO) about gaining community trust in Malawi in order to mitigate the impact of HIV/AIDS. T…
Socially Disempowered Women as the Key to Addressing Change in Malawi
Malawi women are in the ironic juxtaposition of being socially disempowered while, at the same time, thought to hold the key to shaping an effective community response to the HIV crisis. Based on this juxtaposition, a descriptive, qualitative study was conducted in Malawi and the United States where 26 participants from nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) and community-based organizations (CBOs) discussed the roles of Malawi women. Interviews we…
Donors
There are power differentials between donors and recipient organizations that can undermine results at the community level. This paper explores perspectives of staff, partners and contacts of a particular non-governmental organization (NGO1) who work in and with Malawians in Central Africa. The data for this qualitative study is derived from 26 semi-structured interviews that were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim and analyzed using Atlas.ti, …
Rural Adolescent Health
CONTEXT: Adolescence is a pivotal developmental period for the establishment of positive health and health practices. However, developmentally propelled risk behaviors coinciding with barriers to health services may increase the propensity for untoward health outcomes in adolescence. In addition, the sociocultural context of the rural environment can present challenges to the health of adolescents. Limited data on rural adolescent health, particu…

Commentary on “Community-Based Approaches to Strengthen Cultural Competence in Nursing Education and Practice”
Fashion in undress’
The miscellaneous clothing of the Marshalsea poor is marked by dis possession in a way that thwarts the establishment of identity. The haphazard combination of patched and misshapen garments produces a scene of undifferentiated poverty. While Mrs Clennam’s worsted gloves and widow’s dress serve to express her cold and embittered selfhood – ‘There was a smell of black dye in the airless room, which the fire had been drawing out of the crape and st…
Great Exhibitionism
Waterloo Directory of English Newspapers and Periodicals, 1800-1900 deserves mention for its sheer breadth and its combination of hard copy and searchable electronic formats. Victorian periodicals research is one of the most effective tools of Victorian studies because there is no part of the field that it does not touch, as so many papers at this conference demonstrated. The poster display was a commendable innovation, borrowed from the practice…
