Restorative Justice as a Response to Interpersonal Harm in Academia
Interpersonal harm among university students and staff remains a major concern, driven by neoliberal competition, power imbalances and student pressures that erode personal boundaries. Traditional institutional responses often fall short in addressing issues like sexual violence, bullying and hate crimes. This study explores the role of restorative practices in promoting culture change within a New Zealand university. Interviews with 15 key stake…
Victim impact statements in the courtroom
The Victim Impact Statement (VIS) has transformed victims’ interactions with the criminal justice system. Victims have been given a voice through which they can tell their story and share their victimisation experience. These autobiographical narratives could furthermore instigate reciprocal communication between victims and legal professionals. The communicative value of victim participation has the potential to restore victims’ agency and commu…
Differences in perceived fairness and health outcomes in two injury compensation systems
The study shows large differences in perceived fairness between two different compensation systems and an association between fairness and health. These findings are politically important because compensation processes are designed to improve recovery. Lower perceived fairness in NSW may have been caused by potential adversarial aspects of the scheme, such as liability assessment, medical assessments, dealing with a third party for-profit insuran…
Predictors of time to claim closure following a non-catastrophic injury sustained in a motor vehicle crash
Around a third of claimants with a minor injury had not settled by 24 months. Health-related factors and lawyer involvement independently influenced time to claim closure
Factors that challenge health for people involved in the compensation process following a motor vehicle crash
Factors were found that contribute to anxiety in the compensation process. The association between catastrophising and anxiety/depressive mood suggests it is worthwhile further investigating the role of negative cognitions in compensation processes. People who score highly on catastrophising after the MVC may benefit from early psychological interventions aiming at addressing negative cognitions. Another important stressor is the interaction with…
Hallucinating Consistency
Top-down processes like heuristics and gap filling create consistency in normal perception. Sometimes top-down processes cause illusory perceptions. Top-down processes are also involved in the creation of hallucinations, experienced in phenomena like sensory deprivation and phantom limbs. Moreover, it has been argued that the left hemisphere is important in the creation of hallucinations, since it also creates consistency. The influence of the le…
