The initiative is a response to the Sláintecare reform and the Health Regions Implementation Plan, aiming to establish regional and local organisational structures that support and enable integrated care provision for the population of the Republic of I…
Optimism bias as a barrier to accessing mental health support amongst tertiary students
Student wellbeing is a key concern for those delivering tertiary education. Tertiary providers such as universities use a range of techniques to support student wellbeing through times of stress. This article reports on one finding from a mixed methods study at two New Zealand universities that explored how students enrolled in agricultural courses saw and managed their wellbeing. The findings demonstrated that students reflected an optimism bias…
Recovery in Mind
INTRODUCTION: The Covid-19 restrictions of 2020-2021 are known to have undermined the UK population's mental health. Working alongside staff, peer trainers and students at Recovery in Mind (RiM), a Recovery College (RC) in West Berkshire, England, this mixed-methods study is amongst the first to investigate how an RC has responded to the pandemic. METHODS: Working in co-production with RiM staff and peer-trainers, this study employed a mixed-meth…
Implementing a healthy food retail policy
Objectives: To investigate (i) changes in stakeholder commitment and (ii) perceptions of the purpose, challenges and benefits of healthy food and beverage provision in community sports settings during the stepwise implementation of a healthy beverage policy. Design: Convergent, parallel, mixed-methods design complemented (i) repeat semi-structured interviews with council stakeholders ( n 17 interviews, n 6 interviewees), with (ii) repeat quantita…
The long-term effectiveness and acceptability of the retailer-led removal of unhealthy drinks from display in a self-service café
Objective: In 2015, beverages were removed from display at a self-service café within a major health service, resulting in fewer purchases of unhealthy beverages. This initiative was continued following initial evaluation of the results. The current study aimed to determine customer acceptability of the initiative, and whether healthier purchases had continued, at 18 months following implementation. Design: Drinks were categorised as ‘green’ (bes…
Counter College
In 1969, the discipline of Ethnic Studies emerged and was implemented at a handful of colleges throughout the country, most notably at San Francisco State College where the first School of Ethnic Studies was established that year. The idea of devoting space within traditional educational institutions to the study of a particular race or ethnicity has existed since at least the 1920s when Carter G. Woodson proposed Negro History Week and encourage…
Prevalence and determinants of the use of self-tests by members of the public
Self-tests do have potential benefits, for example privacy and convenience, but also potential harms, for example delay seeking treatment after a true negative result when the symptoms are actually due to another condition. It is anticipated that the outcomes from this study will include recommendations about how to improve the appropriate use of self-tests and existing health services, as well as information to prepare health professionals for p…
Tragic Heroines and Wise Women in the Novels of Somerville and Ross
Aristotle’s model of tragedy in the Poetics encompasses a number of concepts which this study uses as hermeneutic strategies for the fictional writings of Somerville and Ross. Writing in the fourth century BCE, Aristotle described Attic tragedy of the fifth century BCE as engaging the function of mimesis, representation, to achieve catharsis, an imaginative identification with the hero and
The Strong Lead-nation Model in an ad-hoc Coalition of the Willing
The speed with which the International Force East Timor (INTERFET) was deployed and the rapidity with which it was able to establish conditions of security in East Timor make this operation an excellent model for future ad-hoc, complex, multinational deployments. In large part, the success of the operation was due to the troop-contributing nations' acceptance of the imperfections inherent in such a disparate force. Operational responsibility was …
