National Health Education Standards: Model Guidance for Curriculum and Instruction (Third Edition)
BACKGROUND: Since the 1990s, national standards have been developed in K-12 subject areas. National standards in health education were first released in 1995 with a second set released in 2007. A third edition, the National Health Education Standards: Model Guidance for Curriculum and Instruction was developed in 2022 under the auspices of the National Consensus for School Health Education. The purpose of this article is to present an overview of…
Gendered racial microaggressions and black college women: A cross-sectional study of depression and psychological distress
Objective: We assessed the association between gendered racism, the simultaneous experience of sexism and racism, depression, and psychological distress in Black college women using an intersectional instrument, the gendered racial microaggression scale. Participants: Black college women enrolled at a predominantly white institution (PWI) in the southeastern U.S. (N = 164, response rate = 77%, mean age 21.67). Methods: We used a cross-sectional s…
Addressing Social Justice Through School Health Education: Thoughts on an Expanded Focus
Family meals and adolescent perceptions of parent–child connectedness
Affirming parent–child interactions, leading to Parent–Child Connectedness (PCC), may provide protective factors that support positive adolescent behaviors and health outcomes; shared family meals are thought to reinforce these interactions. Eight hundred and fifty-five adolescents, ages 9–13, attending six health education centers in the US were surveyed regarding their attitudes about selected interactions they share with their parents. This st…

Social, Economic and Environmental Capital: Corporate Citizenship in a New Economy
Corporate Citizenship as a concept has been with us for many years now, but the 1990s saw a revitalisation of its main themes and issues, particularly around corporate social responsibility, business/community partnerships and social auditing/accountability. More recently, moves have been made, mostly in Europe, to reposition corporate citizenship more fully into new economics thinking. This paper examines this thinking and the effects this may h…
Asia: Cultural Politics in the Global Age
Understanding contemporary Asian societies and cultures is not merely a matter of knowing when to bow and how low. This title looks beyond the cliches and stereotypes to explore the cultural dynamics of the region
Transnational Cultural Studies: What Price Globalisation
One of the most significant aspects of globalisation has been the developing focus upon local resistances, of various types, and the ways in which these resistances seek to carve out specific spaces that both maintain and construct cultural difference. Performing cultural studies in those spaces, particularly those not determined by the philosophical and ideological underpinnings of cultural theories that are traditionally highly resistant to ort…
Internet Regulation in Singapore: A Policy/Ing Discourse
Little has been written critically about Singapore's approach towards Internet regulation and policy/ing. This paper therefore seeks to disambiguate the social, cultural and political aspects of Internet regulation in Singapore. We provide an analysis of Singapore's Internet content regulation, and an update of the information (technology) scene in Singapore, including its converging broadcasting, (tele)communications and media areas, all of whic…

Cultural politics and the image revolution
Constructing Asian values: National identities and ‘responsible citizens
The issue of ‘value’ is one that often falls off the cultural studies agenda, but from time to time, events, like the recent debates on Asian values, and the currency crises in Southeast Asia, demand that a cultural studies approach to understanding events in Asia should engage with the articulation of values within cultural, political, social and economic contexts which variously define the ways in which citizenship might be constructed. This pa…

Communication Policy in Asia: Limited Democracy and the Public Sphere
Communication policy in Asia has been, and is likely to remain, a highly exclusive, non-participatory, localised means of expressing and maintaining power and control. If it defines democracy, it defines a very different and limited one compared to the ideal envisioned, for example, by Habermas. This paper explores some of the issues involved, particularly with respect to communication policy studies in Asia, and argues for an approach to the dev…
Real electronic commerce ‐ smart cards on the superhighway
Discusses “smart cards” as electronic cash carriers. Examines technological innovations such as the Mondex “electronic purse” in the UK, where card values can be topped up by telephone. Forecasts that in the next few years, physical cash will be replaced as a main medium for transactions by “e‐cash,” which is cheaper to manufacture, more portable, and more versatile

Extinction Effects under Changed Stimulus Conditions following 50% and 100% Reinforcement
Contingent Delay versus Noncontingent Delay during Acquisition and Extinction
Three groups of rats were first trained with food and then extinguished in a runway. Running terminated either in no delay, bar pressing at FR16, or a delay equal to the time required for bar pressing. Terminal acquisition running speeds were ordered, from fastest to slowest, as the ordering of groups above. Extinction proceeded at about the same rate from each of the three terminal acquisition levels
Incentive Effects and Competing Response Models
One or 10 pellets of food in the goal box provided two levels of incentive and a 1- or 4-in. gap, adjacent to the start box, defined two degrees of antagonistic instrumental responses to the approach down a runway. Three groups of hungry rats, (1L-3S), (2L-2S), and (3L-1S), differed in the ratio of large- to small-gap trials throughout 124 days of training at 1 trial per day. The major findings were no G × I interaction for response speed in any …
