Justice in contingent work
Purpose The temporary nature of skilled, contingent employees can entail disparities in training, rewards, work conditions and supervisory treatment. This study aims to investigate the impact of contingent employees’ psychological contract fulfillment with their employer on their engagement, the authors study the mechanisms underlying these disparities such as psychological empowerment, perceived justice and length of contract. Design/methodology…
An Exploratory Study on Integrating the Christian Faith in an Online Master of Social Work (MSW) Program Curriculum
Social work curricula frequently lack the inclusion of Religion, Faith and Spirituality (RFS). While faith and religious beliefs are often connected with professional calling, values, and practice, the integration of faith and social work practice is uncommon. This research explored the experiences of students in a Master of Social Work (MSW) program that integrated Christian faith throughout the curriculum and its effects on their spiritual unde…

Bonding, bridging and linking social networks
Cyclone Pam (March 2015) was an unprecedented event in Vanuatu forcing the simultaneous involvement of national and long‐term international actors, well integrated into the national disaster governance system, as well as numerous short‐term international actors, unfamiliar with the geopolitical and cultural disaster context of the country. Cooperation between these three groups of actors evolved through the three scales of bonding, bridging and l…

Education to Enhance Vietnamese Coastal Communities’ Adaptive Capacity to Cope With Climate Change
Vietnam is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, particularly in poor coastal communities. While external climate change projects have been conducted in some coastal provinces, including Ha Tinh, there is a lack of local education programs to enhance communities’ awareness and adaptive capacity to cope with climate change. Therefore, a community education program is proposed to help Ha Tinh locals adapt to climate change. The aim of…

Political Ecology Approach to Island Tourism Planning and Climate Change Adaptation
Climate change is emerging as the main driver of current and future climate-related risks for small islands. These risks include sea level rise, stronger tropical cyclones, and changing rainfall patterns. While there is now high confidence in the scientific community that the present change in climate is anthropogenic in nature compared to the Earth's geologic history of natural variability, there is a need for more detailed evaluations of the re…
Political Ecology, Island Tourism Planning, and Climate Change Adaptation on Boracay, Philippines
This research paper presents a case study of the island of Boracay, Philippines, utilising a political ecology approach to climate change adaptation. The research finds that the island's political ecology, especially the relationships among stakeholders, is strained. This creates challenges for various urban planning processes that require good working relationships. Climate change is expected to highlight these divisions as interactions among st…
Changes in Social Capital
This paper describes how the social capital of rice farmers of the Mekong Delta of Vietnam, as manifested in the tradition of collective farming practice, has changed. Collective rice farming persisted for decades, irrespective of critical events that challenged its continuation, due to two key factors: the high need for collective farming to ensure subsistence, and the availability of a closely knit social network that facilitated the exchange o…
Self-Stigma, Perceived Stigma, and Help-Seeking Communication in People with Mental Illness
People with mental illness (PWMI) often internalise negative beliefs (self-stigma) or anticipate external sources of stigma (perceived stigma). This study examines how the two types of stigma affect the willingness to communicate for help – such communication is a vital aspect of good patient care and treatment outcome. Seventy-two participants from different ethnic backgrounds who had experienced mental illness responded to an online survey abou…
Reform of the Barnett Formula with Needs Assessment
Block grants to the UK's devolved administrations are allocated using the Barnett Formula. There have been calls to replace this formula with one based on spending needs assessment, but two obstacles to doing so have been raised. First, that the devolved administrations would be unable to agree on how needs should be assessed; and second, it is unclear how needs assessment might work for devolved governments that can pursue different spending pol…

Ball R., Eiser D. and King D. Assessing relative spending needs of devolved government: the case of healthcare spending in the UK, Regional Studies. The block grants allocated to the UK's devolved administrations are not determined by any estimate of their spending needs. There are increasing calls to replace the current grant allocation mechanism with one that explicitly considers the devolved administrations' spending needs. This paper compares…

The New Internationalists
International relief and development agencies consistently rank among the largest evangelical organizations, and in recent decades, they have gained increased exposure and influence within the greater humanitarian community. World Vision, the largest evangelical agency, is also the largest Christian humanitarian organization in the world. Themes of politics and culture wars have led many to scholars to categorize American evangelicals into distin…

Communities Living With Hazards
[Extract] This book, Communities Living with Hazards, is a celebration of the twentyfifth anniversary of the establishment of the Centre for Disaster Studies. The Centre was formally established by resolution of the Council of James Cook University on 5 April 1979. Staff and researchers with the Centre in 2004 contributed papers that encapsulated their areas of disaster research in order to present a summary of the diversity and orientation of th…
A consensual qualitative investigation into the repatriation experiences of young adult, missionary kids
A growing body of literature has documented the repatriation difficulties of children who have spent some portion of their developmental years outside their passport country; this cultural crisis is particularly evident for the repatriated missionary kid (MK). Our study employed a constructivist-interpretivist approach with Consensual Qualitative Research (CQR) to interview young adult, repatriated MKs (n = 9) and those who support them (n = 4). …
The environmental spending needs of Scotland's local authorities
Scottish citizens benefit from 19% more public spending per head than English citizens. The ‘Barnett formula’ is slowly reducing the gap, but very little is known about the countries’ relative needs and hence about how far the present gap is defensible: the aim of this paper is to throw some light on the countries’ relative needs. We begin with the complex formulae that the Westminster government uses to assess the spending needs of English local…
The Provision of Benefits by Interest Groups in the United States
With a sample of nearly 900 voluntary associations, we give a detailed account of what membership benefits are provided by interest groups, and we place these results in the context of a typology of groups. Using a multivariate analysis of membership inducements, we show that the pursuit of collective goods by groups is not always a mere "by-product" made possible by the provision of selective material incentives, as Olson (1965) contended. Three…

Private Finance Initiative – a good deal for the public purse or a drain on future generations
English The Private Finance Initiative (PFI), introduced by the Conservatives in 1992, has been enthusiastically embraced by the Labour government, with projects worth £12 billion (capital cost) signed between 1997 and 2000. The charge to the public sector includes the capital cost and a charge for the service, with the resulting ‘unitary payment’ charged over the life of the contract which may extend beyond 20 years. PFI is thought to have advan…

Complex Methods of Presentation, Internal Consistency of Learning Material, and Accuracy of Written Recall
2 experiments are reported. The first compared the accuracy of written recall for three methods of presentation: simple oral, visual equal-time, and dual. For sequence measures, retention improved in the order presented above. Exp. 2 compared the above three methods of presentation for explicated and non-explicated versions of the learning material. Similar findings were obtained on relative retention under the three methods of presentation. In g…
Note on Suggestibility and Clustering
In recalling lists of words composed of representatives of a number of categories but presented in a random order, Ss tend to cluster words of the same category. This finding has been called clustering. Clustering has been shown to be a function of a number of variables and subject to alternate interpretations (Kintsch, 1970, pp. 247-253). I was unable to find any studies that related clustering to suggestibility. Indeed, most studies in clusteri…

Presentation Time and Method of Reading in the Learning of Connected Discourse
This study investigated the joint influence of total presentation time (10, 20, or 30 seconds) and method of reading (paced, normal linguistic breaks, or atypical linguistic breaks) on the learning of a 25 words-in-length passage of connected discourse. The material was presented orally and the recall was written. The finding of major importance was the significant influence of method of reading on total learning time
Sex Differences in Learning Connected Discourse as a Function of Exposure and Interitem Intervals
Learning of connected discourse was contrasted for males and females for differing exposure and interitem intervals. With total presentation time constant, it was more difficult for males to learn the material when the interitem interval was greater than the exposure interval rather than the reverse. Females appeared to learn equally well under both conditions
