Co‐Designing Solutions to Improve Communication About Serious Illness During Hospitalisation
BACKGROUND: Serious illness conversations (SICs) that explore patient priorities are becoming increasingly important to high-quality care for those with life-limiting conditions admitted to general internal medicine wards. While patient-cited barriers to SIC include a lack of understanding of complex medical terminology, expected illness course and life-sustaining interventions, providers cite poor documentation and lack of training and support. …

Effects of Social Learning on Rural Farmers’ Adaptive Capacity
Environmental challenges in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta characterized by adverse impacts of climate change, upstream hydropower development and localized dyke expansion present imperatives for rural farmers to “learn to adapt.” However, little is known about how learning contributes to improving their capacity in adapting to these “wicked” problems. This study investigates potential effects of farmers’ learning on their adaptive capacity, utilizi…
The Child’s Guardian – Listening and Giving Weight to Children’s Views
Both the child protection and public child law systems assume a child-centred approach is at the heart of their work with children. That assumption is based on what are considered child-centred principles, which are enshrined in legislation in England and Wales in the Children Act 1989, mainly the principle of paramountcy of the child’s welfare in Section 1(1) and the principle of no delay in Section 1(2), in relation to the completion of proceed…
Strong genetic influence on hypocone expression of permanent maxillary molars in South Australian twins
An understanding of the role of genetic influences on dental traits is important in the areas of forensic odontology, human evolution and population variation. The aims of this study were: to calculate the frequency of occurrence and degree of expression of hypocones on permanent maxillary first and second molars in a sample of South Australian twins; to compare trait expression between males and females; to compare concordance rates for trait ex…
Detouring Civil Liberties
2010, Routledge. All rights reserved. This article provides an overview of the new drug-driving laws that exist in Australia. It explains that, like drink-driving offences, the drug-driving laws prima facie infringe civil liberties. Yet these infringements are permissible, providing the laws promote road safety and thereby the civil liberty of the right to life. The article then analyses empirical evidence concerning the effects of different illi…
Missions statements in Wales
This study seeks to compare the mission statements of higher education institutions in Wales as well as to compare these with regional level policy statements and demands from the market. The underlying idea is to reveal the extent to which mission statements actually differ and are (or are not) in line with such regional policies and market demands. The importance of the study is that it highlights the extent to which expectations from either go…

Dancing or Stricken Peacock? Than Shwe, Suu Kyi and the Politics of Institutional Change in Myanmar
In a country where signs, symbols and astrology have played key roles in its political and cultural evolution, the peacock as the emblem of an independent state has had a chequered history in Myanmar (Burma). Frequently juxtaposed to the Sheldrake, emblem of the Southern Mon kingdom centred on Pegu until incorporation into the larger Burmese empire in the mid-18 th century, the country peacock could not withstand the advances of the rampant Briti…
