Developing global citizenship competencies through debate
In the face of current 21 st century challenges and areas of contention, to enable them to adapt and succeed, graduates must develop both mastery of subject-specific knowledge and attributes, such as critical thinking, effective communication, self-reflection, being confident, adaptable, and ethically and socially aware. Debate is used as a teaching method within the problem-based pedagogical paradigm to enhance student engagement and deeper lear…
Implementation of a national smoke-free prison policy
Implementing a smoke-free prison policy is cost-effective over the short term and long term for people in custody and staff
From Scotland to Sāmoa
In the late nineteenth century, Margaret Isabella Balfour Stevenson (1829–1897) accompanied her son Robert Louis Stevenson on his voyage in the South Seas and eventually settled with him and his family in Sāmoa. Two volumes of the letters she addressed to her sister during this period were published posthumously: From Saranac to the Marquesas and beyond; [...] 1887–88 (1903) and Letters from Samoa, 1891–1895 (1906). These epistolary travel accoun…
Do patients who die from an alcohol-related condition ‘drift’ into areas of greater deprivation? Alcohol-related mortality and health selection theory in Scotland
BACKGROUND: Health selection has been proposed to explain the patterning of alcohol-related mortality by area deprivation. This study investigated whether persons who die from alcohol-related conditions are more likely to experience social drift than those who die from other causes. METHODS: 21 years) were coded as 'alcohol-related' or 'other' and by deprivation decile of residence at death. Acute hospital admissions data from 1996 to 2012 were u…
Applying an Alcohol Brief Intervention (ABI) model to the community justice setting
A pilot study was implemented in three local authority areas in Scotland to test the feasibility and acceptability of delivering Alcohol Brief Interventions (ABIs) as part of routine practice in community justice. Screening for Alcohol Use Disorders (AUDs) was undertaken with offenders given Probation or Community Service Orders, with randomization of participants into control (information only) and experimental (ABI) groups. A total of 419 offen…
Assessment of alcohol problems using Audit in a prison setting
To our knowledge, this is the first study to identify differing behaviours and needs among prisoners with high AUDIT score ranges, through additional analysis of individual questions. The study has identified high prevalence of alcohol use, varied problem behaviours, and links across drinking, crime and recidivism, supporting the argument for more extensive provision of alcohol-focused interventions in prisons. These should be carefully targeted …
P2-101 Prisoner mortality in Scotland 1996–2007
Introduction Mortality is substantially increased among those who have been imprisoned but there is little information about the extent to which excess mortality might be explained by deprivation. All cause mortality among Scottish prisoners has not previously been described. Methods Standard record linkage methods were used to link Scottish Prison Service and mortality data for individuals imprisoned in Scotland for the first time between 1 Janu…
