  • Environmental stewardship and wicked problems

    Open AccessKarl Marx, E Leane et al.ARTICLEThe Polar Journal2026

    The concept of the ‘Antarctic ambassador’ has become a central narrative in polar tourism, based on the idea that tourists can play a constructive role in supporting Antarctic conservation. With over 100,000 people visiting Antarctica each year, tourists represent a potentially powerful force in shaping environmental outcomes. However, existing scholarship often treats ambassadorship as a straightforward outcome of attitude change, overlooking th…

  • Improving Environmental Outcomes With Games

    Open AccessKristy de Salas, Louise Ashbarry et al.ARTICLESimulation & Gaming2022

    Background To overcome the high failure rate of gameful interventions, we need to better understand their design and evaluation strategies to build an evidence-base for best-practice approaches that bring about meaningful change. This systematic review asks: ‘What behavioural and technological design and evaluation theories and approaches are applied in games developed to bring about positive environmental outcomes?’. Method We reviewed 52 papers…

  • Taking a Stand for Office-Based Workers' Mental Health

    Open AccessCasey Mainsbridge, Casey Peter Mainsbridge et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2020

    There is evidence that movement-based microbreaks can improve the cardiovascular health of desk-based employees, but their effect on mood states is yet to be investigated. As daily work tasks can potentially result in the loss of physical and psychological resources, the objective of this study was to measure the effect of movement microbreaks during formal work time on mood states. In a randomised-controlled pilot study with repeated measures (b…

  • A Methodological Review of Exploring Turner’s Three-Process Theory of Power and the Social Identity Approach

    Open AccessMichelle Ye, Nadia Ollington et al.ARTICLEQualitative Sociology Review2016

    Turner’s Three-Process Theory of Power together with Social Identity Theory (SIT) and Self-Categorization Theory (SCT) have been influential in social psychology to examine power-related behaviors. While positivist experimental and survey methods are common in social psychological studies, these approaches may not adequately consider Turner’s constructs due to a comparative lack of ecological validity. Drawing on a methodology-focused review of t…

  • Action Research in Practice

    Open AccessHannah Skoda, Peter Marshall et al.ARTICLEQualitative Report2014Cited by: 1

    In this paper we give a direct and personal account of the issues and challenges that occurred in an action research study. The research team consisted of five researchers from two Australian universities. The action research case was carried out in a small financial services company and concerned the development of an information systems strategy. However, the focus of the paper is not on information systems, but on the general methodological is…

  • Implementing Student Peer Review

    Emma Pharo, Kristy de SalasARTICLEJournal of Geography in Higher…2009References: 3

    This paper reflects on the implementation of a peer-assessment innovation in a large first-year geography unit. While the innovation had been carefully researched, difficulties in the implementation drew the authors' attention to the need for more change management to be built into the design and development. Focusing specifically on the teacher perspective, they describe the need for adequate development for all teaching staff to avoid miscommun…
