Gender Differences in Recovery Needs After a Suicide Attempt: A National Qualitative Study of US Military Veterans
BACKGROUND: Appropriate after-care for the estimated 1.4 million people with nonfatal suicide attempts each year in the United States is critical, yet little research has focused on recovery needs after an attempt and whether important gender differences in those needs may exist.

State of leisure studies in Australia and New Zealand
A recurring theme has emerged from past ANZALS (Australia and New Zealand Association for Leisure Studies) Conferences' keynote presentations concerning the status of leisure studies from a teaching and research perspective. While this broad discussion has been raised, little is formally known about the current status of leisure studies in Australian and New Zealand universities. The ANZALS Board initiated a project in 2015 to gain insights into …
Effects of Corporate Support of a Charity on Public Perceptions of the Charity
A quasi-experimental design ( N = 517) was used to investigate the effect on audience response to a supported charity if corporate support is featured in an advertisement. The results indicate that corporate support of a charity appears not to influence audience attitudes and donation intentions for the charity. A small portion of the audience may be motivated to donate when learning of a large corporate donation to the charity. The level of indi…

This case study explored the effectiveness of radio spots promoting school-based sex education and makes recommendations for future advocacy efforts using the transtheoretical model to analyze the populations of Sacatepéquez and Chimaltenango, Guatemala, on their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors regarding school-based sex education. An in-person community questionnaire was implemented, and a convenience sample of 329 participants was analyzed. D…
Financial Planners and Philanthropic Planning
This article reports findings from a survey of Canadian financial planners. The focus of the study is learning more about the depth and breadth of philanthropic planning that is included in their advising services to their high-net worth clients. The findings indicate that a minority of financial planners (1) regularly broach the topic of philanthropy in their counseling, (2) believe their clients are interested in philanthropy, and (3) feel suff…
Give and take in major gift relationships
This article investigates the complex phenomenon of major gift giving to charitable institutions. Drawing on empirical evidence from interviews with 16 Australian major donors (who gave a single gift of at least AU$10,000 in 2008 or 2009), we seek to better understand donor expectations and (dis) satisfaction. Given growing need for social services, and the competition among nonprofit organisations (NPOs) to secure sustainable funding, this resea…
