Video-based ecological momentary assessment of health and well-being outcomes in nature
Contact with nature is increasingly recognized for its human health and well-being benefits. However, the mechanisms associated with these outcomes, including the influence of different natural and built features, remain under-researched. Additionally, there has been little empirical examination of the methods used to assess outcomes, in terms of quantity and quality of data. This study addresses these gaps by exploring the effectiveness of video…
Examining disparities in the accessibility of unhealthy food vendors in school neighbourhoods across Ontario
Does outdoor advertising correlate with retail food purchases made by adolescents? A cross-sectional study in Canada
Food marketing plays a substantial role in shaping adolescent diets, having wide-ranging ramifications for health behaviours and outcomes throughout the life course. Yet, there remains a dearth of research about how outdoor advertising as a specific channel of food marketing affects purchasing behaviours. We examine self-reported purchases made at retail food outlets by adolescents as it relates to the availability of outdoor food and beverage ad…
Restaurant survival during the Covid-19 pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic placed considerable stress on restaurants from restrictions placed on their operations, shifting consumer confidence, rapid expansion of remote work arrangements and aggressive uptake of third-party delivery services. Industry reports suggest that restaurants are experiencing a much higher rate of failure in comparison to other sectors of the economy. Restaurant survival was assessed in the Middlesex–London region of Ontario…
Tracking 4000 years of raptor diets through isotope analysis reveals urban scavenging with implications for conservation
Factors affecting psychological commitment and loyalty to parks and other forms of protected areas in Canada
We use a model of psychological commitment to better understand the diverse motivations that enhance behavioural loyalty to parks and protected areas. Psychological commitment reflects the degree to which an individual identifies with, wants to learn about, and chooses freely to engage with a particular phenomenon, and these factors, in turn, lead to greater loyalty and resistance to alternatives. With data collected from 634 park visitors in Alb…
Melodic Structures in the Double Jigs of O’Neill’s The Dance Music of Ireland
O’Neill’s The Dance Music of Ireland: 1001 Gems (1907) is a collection of foundational importance for the modern performance practice of Irish traditional music. This article examines the 365 double jigs of this collection in terms of their patterns of motivic repetition using an analytical methodology devised to explicate and compare the melodic structures of each part. This dataset demonstrates the prevalence of four standard melodic structures…
I am because you are’
This article presents a critical reflection from a composer embedded in a national community-music project centred around asylum seekers. This reflection-on-action is contextualized within wider scholarly discourse in community music, including the notion of ‘hospitality’ and the generic features of participatory performance. An account is given of the research and analysis that informed the composer’s process for the choral work, the Song Seekin…
Linking restorative human health outcomes to protected area ecosystem diversity and integrity
Human health and well-being benefits have increasingly been associated with contact with nature. However, limited research has focused on the influence of ecosystem type and quality on these outcomes. This paper reports on the results of an in-situ survey of 467 visitors to an Ontario protected area. Results revealed high overall restorative outcomes across all ecosystem types, with greater benefits reported for women than men. Perceived ecosyste…
Analyzing differences between spatial exposure estimation methods
Winter Storms and Fall-Related Injuries
Emergency department visitation data were analyzed using a matched-pair, retrospective cohort method to estimate the effects of winter storms on fall-related injury risks for a midsized urban community in Ontario, Canada. Using a unique definition and classification of winter storm events and dry-weather control periods, relative risks of injury were estimated for total falls and two subcategories (same-level falls involving ice and snow; all oth…

Connecting social disorganization to broken windows and routine activities
Routine Activity Theory, Broken Windows Theory, and Social Disorganization Theory each attempt to explain the spatial distribution of neighbourhood crime. This paper explores how these theories relate to neighbourhood crime. A concept map integrating key concepts from the theories comprehensively describes the causes of neighbourhood crime. In particular, the map highlights the concept of Ecological (Dis)advantage as a key link between Routine Ac…

Theology and Economic Ethics
This book seeks to expand the self-critical resources of contemporary theological economic ethics by bringing the method of a pre-modern thinker, Martin Luther (1483–1546), into interaction with that of a modern contribution to social ethics, the Swiss theologian Arthur Rich (1910–92). The work is undertaken through a close engagement with a selected publication of Luther (his 1519–20 Großer Sermon von dem Wucher) and of Rich (his masterwork, Wir…

Gender Differences in the Sketch Map Creation Process
Gender differences in navigation and mapping skills have long been noted in past research. Females tend to use landmarks for navigation while males favour paths and co-ordinate systems. Similar findings are found in sketch maps, where landmarks are prevalent on female maps and males draw more paths. Although the type and quantity of map elements give an indication of gender differences, there is potential for further insights to emerge from analy…
Interpreting urban space through cognitive map sketching and sequence analysis
Traditionally, analysis of sketch maps of urban areas has focused on the interpretation of hand‐drawn renditions of features that are most familiar to individuals. Few researchers have investigated the sequence that sketchers use to identify features on the urban landscape and how these features are linked together to form a coherent ‘picture’ of an area. This article builds upon previous research by exploring the sequential pattern of sketch map…
Digital Sketch-Map Drawing as an Instrument to Collect Data about Spatial Cognition
The formative years of cognitive mapping research focused on theoretical understanding, with less emphasis on developing innovative methodologies to extract cognitive maps. By the 1990s, new cross-disciplinary exchanges with computer science and information technology had renewed interest in the field. This article describes a method for collecting, mapping, and exploring the sequence of sketch-map creation, including integration of the resulting…

A resource management tool for implementing strategic direction in an academic department
This paper reports on a load balancing system for an academic department, which can be used as an implementation mechanism for strategic planning. In essence, it consists of weighting each activity within the department and performing workload allocation based on this transparent scheme. The experience to date has been very positive, in terms of achieving strategic change and staff contentment
