Short-term rentals as digitally-mediated tourism gentrification
The ways in which short-term rental (STR) companies like Airbnb re-spatialize tourism are becoming apparent and force a reconsideration of "tourism gentrification" studies. Research on this phenomenon, originally described in New Orleans fifteen years ago, has traditionally focused on the role of the state and corporate interests investing large amounts of capital to promote mass tourism. Drawing on Census data and a dataset of STR listings in Ne…
Multi-Method Assessment of Sleep in Children With Angelman Syndrome
Objectives: To assess sleep quality and timing in children with Angelman syndrome (AS) with sleep problems using questionnaires and actigraphy and contrast sleep parameters to those of typically developing (TD) children matched for age and sex. Methods: Week-long actigraphy assessments were undertaken with children with AS (n = 20) with parent-reported sleep difficulties and compared with age and sex matched TD controls. The presence of severe sl…
Advocacy for disabled children and young people
Recent policy has emphasized the need for advocacy services for children and young people, developments that have gone hand‐in‐hand with greater levels of participation of young people in decision‐making. Advocacy for disabled young people is especially important, as they are a particular vulnerable group and have, traditionally, been even more excluded from decisions about matters affecting their lives. This paper reports the findings, as they r…
Divorce mediation
This study evaluated levels of psychological distress experienced by children (aged 4–16) and parents at the beginning of and one month after mediation for child-related disputes. In contrast to previous research, this study employed both child- and parent-reports of child outcome. Mediation was associated with reductions in child-reported, though not parent-reported, child psychological distress and with reductions in parent-reports of their own…

Economic impacts of TEDs on the shrimp production sector
The economic impact of the effects of the Turtle Excluder Devices (TEDs) used in the Gulf of Mexico to control the numbers of turtles caught in shrimp trawl nets is analyzed. This is a major concern to the shrimp fishing economy due to the potential loss of shrimp. A simulation modeling technique is used which estimates the changes in landings, revenues, costs, and the economic rents. A base scenario in which no TEDs are used is compared with fiv…
