Becoming a ‘pharmaceutical person’: Medication use trajectories from age 26 to 38 in a representative birth cohort from Dunedin, New Zealand
Despite the abundance of medications available for human consumption, and frequent concerns about increasing medicalization or pharmaceuticalization of everyday life, there is little research investigating medicines-use in young and middle-aged populations and discussing the implications of young people using increasing numbers of medicines and becoming pharmaceutical users over time. We use data from a New Zealand longitudinal study to examine c…
Poverty status of worker compensation claimants with permanent impairments
Poverty levels have proven to be pernicious in Canada, with particular groups at heightened risk of poverty.

Employing two poverty indicators, we describe the poverty levels of Ontario injured workers with permanent imp…

“HIV isn't me…”: HIV+ adolescents' experiences in a positive context of support and treatment
We describe the experiences of a sample of Canadian HIV+ youth whose intact adolescent identities contrast sharply with the expected identity challenges of persons living with a serious, chronic disease.

Second, we describe the medical, familial, and broader social…

School-based community development as a health promotion strategy for children
In this paper we discuss our experience of engaging 9–10-year-old children in grade 4 in a community development process to deal with community health problems they consider important. With guidance from a facilitator, young children can work cooperatively to identify problems, set priorities, and design and implement activities to address a community health issue. They can reflect upon their actions and the process within which they have worked …
