Association of total protein intake with bone mineral density and bone loss in men and women from the Framingham Offspring Study
Objective To examine (i) the association of percentage of total energy intake from protein (protein intake %) with bone mineral density (BMD, g/cm 2 ) and bone loss at the femoral neck, trochanter and lumbar spine (L2–L4) and (ii) Ca as an effect modifier. Setting The Framingham Offspring Study. Subjects Men ( n 1280) and women ( n 1639) completed an FFQ in 1992–1995 or 1995–1998 and underwent baseline BMD measurement by dual-energy X-ray absorpt…
On the Politics of Indigeneity: North American and Pacific Histories
The field of comparative indigenous studies has grown tremendously in recent years. Tiya Miles, Paige Raibmon, and J. Kehaulani Kauanui offer some of the most thought-provoking reflections on the politics of indigeneity. Highlighting debates over indigenous identity in the United States and Canada during the nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, these authors uncover how Native peoples in modern industrial nation-states have reshaped their id…
A genome wide linkage scan of metacarpal size and geometry in the Framingham Study
Bone geometry is a significant component of bone strength, and has a clinical utility in predicting fractures and quantifying bone loss. Bone geometry is known to have a substantial genetic component. We performed linkage analysis to identify chromosomal regions governing metacarpal bone geometry. A genome‐wide scan (with a set of 615 markers with spacing of ∼5.7 cM) was performed on 1,702 individuals from 330 extended families of the Framingham …
Introduction to the Symposium
Affective Leadership and Emotional Labor: A View from the Local Level
At first glance, readers of Professors Newman, Guy, and Mastracci’s article may conclude that emotional labor and affective leadership are obvious qualities that we should expect from adults in the workplace. It seems that effective employees and managers have always shown strengths in these competencies. Is this another academic effort to explore an area that practitioners already understand and manage fairly well? Further reflection reveals, ho…
Calcium intake and hip fracture risk in men and women: A meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies and randomized controlled trials
Chaos in Social Systems: Assessment and Relevance
From the rise of Social Darwinism in the 19th century to the behavioral revolution in the 20th century, social scientists have looked to both theory and method from the natural sciences to understand the dynamics of change in social systems. Paul Higgins’ chapter ‘Climate Change: Complexity, Chaos and Order’ offers insights from chaos theory and the complexity sciences as means for better understanding change in social systems. These insights hav…
Introduction: Special Issue on Natural Disasters and Public Works Management and Policy
This article serves as the introduction to a special issue on natural disasters and public works management and policy. The authors note that large-scale natural disasters provide the occasion for public attention turning to the public works infrastructure, as basic necessities for living in a modern society are threatened or interrupted. The recent experience with Hurricane Katrina in the southern United States showed that without the critical i…

Effect of Birth Cohort on Risk of Hip Fracture: Age-Specific Incidence Rates in the Framingham Study
Objectives. This study examined the effect of birth cohort on incidence rates of hip fracture among women and men in the Framingham Study. Methods. Age-specific incidence rates of first hip fracture were presented according to tertile of year of birth for 5209 participants of the Framingham Study, a population-based cohort followed since 1948. Sex-specific incidence rate ratios were calculated by Cox regression to assess the relation between birt…
Long-Wave Economic Cycles, Techno-Economic Paradigms, and the Pattern of Reform in American Public Administration
Previous public administration research has failed to systematically explore the relationships between changing techno-economic paradigms and reform in American public administration. This article examines the linkages between bureaucratic reform and long-wave economic cycles. Specifically, the authors contend that the techno-economic paradigms that drive economic long waves are consistent with a pattern of initiation and eventually confirmation …
Measuring Temporal Complexity in the External Environment: Nonlinearity and the Bounds of Rational Action
Forty years ago, Herbert Simon reminded public managers of the limits of rationality, or the bounded rationality, of the individual decision maker. New analytical techniques from the sciences of complexity now provide a means to measure the complexity in the environment of public managers using actual organizational data. Time series analysis is used to examine data from the external environment of two urban police divisions. Results of the analy…
Chaos as Opportunity: Grounding a Positive Vision of Management and Society in the New Physics
The outcomes of patients newly admitted to nursing homes after hip fracture
OBJECTIVES. The outcomes of elderly, hospitalized patients discharged to nursing homes after hip fracture were examined. METHODS. For 2624 hip fracture patients admitted to any of 43 proprietary nursing homes between 1984 and 1988, admission assessments were examined in relation to 1-month outcomes. RESULTS. Mean patient age was 82 +/- 7 y; 85% of the sample were female. Within 1 month after discharge, 24% had returned home, 12% had been rehospit…
Nonlinear Dynamical Analysis: Assessing Systems Concepts in a Government Agency
Budgets as Dynamic Systems: Change, Variation, Time, and Budgetary Heuristics
Students of budgetary politics have recognized for some time that the incrementalist framework for understanding budgetary dynamics is flawed. The decline of the incrementalist paradigm suggests that new and innovative approaches to understanding budgeting should be considered. This essay presents an emerging paradigm from the natural sciences—nonlinear dynamics—as a foundation for reconsidering the possibility of a theory of budgeting. Nonlinear…

Thematic Mapping With Microcomputers: Graphic Display of Social Scientific Data
This paper presents the current state of thematic mapping with microcomputers. It is intended to afford social scientists a view of the potential of using microcomputer-generated thematic maps as data presentation and research tools. Readers will take from this work an understanding of the types of map they might use for research and data presentation, an understanding of the general process of creating maps with microcomputers, and a view of the…
Information Systems Education in Masters Programs in Public Affairs and Administration
Public administration scholars and practitioners have long been aware of the need for computer related education for students of public affairs and administration. Rufus Miles, in 1967, proposed that computer training become a basic component of graduate-level training in public administration.' In 1974, Roy G. Saltman called for an increased emphasis on science in public administration curricula and further proposed the establishment of a commit…
