Life stories and group identity in adolescence
This study’s aim was to track the impact of adolescents’ life stories on group identification and fusion. Aspects of life stories, especially autobiographical reasoning (in which the shared past is linked to present self), are predicted to lead to identity fusion by mid-adolescence. Participants ( N = 63; 57% NZ European; 49% girls; 9–12 years or 16–17 years) completed a life-story chapter task (coded for coherence), narrated turning points (code…
Racial and Ethnic Variations in a Multi-Channel Psychiatric Emergency Services Program
The Multimorbidity Questionnaire (MMQ1)
The English-language MMQ1 demonstrated adequate psychometric properties using classical test theory. Further validation using Rasch analysis is planned, and may help optimise and abbreviate the measure. This PROM has the potential to improve the measurement of QOL in MLTC research, including trials
Storm surges
Damaging storm surges from tropical cyclones have not occurred frequently in northern Australia and therefore residents in this region do not have a lot of experience to draw on when assessing potential risk. Lack of experience can also impact on the knowledge an individual holds about an event, and this in turn can alter how associated risks are perceived. This study explored the role of different types of knowledge in perceiving the threat from…

The Supervenient Causal Efficacy of Chromatically Illuminated Conscious Experience
In our work we have drawn attention to an aspect of conscious experience that we have labeled chromatic illumination, which consists of conscious appreciation of a large body of background information, and of the holistic relevance of this information to a cognitive task that is being consciously undertaken, without that information being represented by any conscious, occurrent, intentional mental state. We have also characterized the prototypica…
Language, Truth, and Pedagogy
Early in the planning the Emory-Tibet Science Initiative, we realized that the encounter between Buddhism and contemporary science demanded that Buddhist logic and epistemology encounter Anglophone philosophy of science. A titanic clash of world views was anticipated, but as we began the conversation, we found something different. Many philosophical concerns were shared, but these problems were understood differently. While fundamental elements o…

Chromatic Illumination
We argue that introspection reveals a ubiquitous aspect of conscious experience that hitherto has been largely unappreciated in philosophy of mind and in cognitive science: conscious appreciation of a large body of background information, and of the holistic relevance of this information to a cognitive task that is being consciously undertaken, without that information being represented by any conscious, occurrent, intentional mental state. We ca…
Iron Age Settlements and Roman Roads
Excavations along an 18.5km stretch of the Angelinos trunk water main in north Oxfordshire between Tackley and Milton uncovered a panoply of prehistoric to post-medieval remains. Residual sherds of Beaker pottery suggest Chalcolithic/early Bronze Age activity within the vicinity of the development, but most of the excavated features were middle Iron Age in date, comprising linear boundaries and probable enclosures. At least three areas of domesti…
The place of non-epistemic matters in epistemology
Are Epistemic Norms Fundamentally Social Norms?
People develop and deploy epistemic norms – normative sensibilities in light of which they regulate both their individual and community epistemic practice. There is a similarity to folk's epistemic normative sensibilities – and it is by virtue of this that folk commonly can rely on each other, and even work jointly to produce systems of true beliefs – a kind of epistemic common good. Agents not only regulate their belief forming practices in ligh…

A Travesty of British Justice? Appealing against Internment during the Second World War
In late 1940, the Australian government established Aliens Tribunals and Advisory Committees to ensure that local internees could, if they desired, protest against their internment. Most historians argue that this system of appeals was fundamentally flawed. This general explanation has much to commend it. Even so, the widely‐condemned appeals system requires some contextualisation. This article examines the appeal against internment of one man, H…
The Routledge Handbook of Social Epistemology
Empirical research has substantiated the finding that very many of us harbour implicit biases: fast, automatic, and difficult to control processes that encode stereotypes and evaluative content, and influence how we think and behave. The influence of implicit bias on perception may operate under the radar of consciousness: therefore it is irrelevant to the justification of epistemologists‘ beliefs according to accessibility. The person whose beli…

Whose Life Story Is It? Self-Reflexive Life Story Research with People with Intellectual Disabilities
This article explores the unique relationship between the interviewer and the interviewee that lies at the heart of collaborative oral history, specifically in relation to life story research with people with intellectual disabilities. It is concerned with interrogating this relationship and how this form of collaboration can be represented. This article argues that amplifying the voice of people with intellectual disabilities is a fraught exerci…
The Future of Ethics
There are many works seeking to apply the moral teachings of religious traditions to environmental problems. Some are keen to show the members of a tradition how and why they should care about nature; others seem more interested in proving that a particular tradition is sufficiently green. Willis Jenkins' The Future of Ethics does neither of these. Rather the environmental and social problems facing the world today, from climate change to radical…
Reconciling Leadership Paradigms
This phenomenological study examined the complexity American Indian K-12 school leaders face on reservations in Montana, USA The study described how these leaders have to reconcile their Westernized educational leadership training with their traditional ways of knowing, living, and leading. Three major themes emerged that enabled these leaders to address racism in their schools and create spaces that were more conducive to the practice of cultura…
World Music Videos Today
March–April 2014 • 7 Over thirty-something years of music video, we have gotten what we might have expected of a new (?) art (?) form (?): the sedimentation of practices, followed by the stirring up of new possibilities; an ever-changing relationship with the technologies of production, distribution , and consumption; the formation of unanticipated links with other media forms; and an uneven but steady proliferation worldwide. Like other short-fo…
Liaison Officer for International Medical Graduates
There is an increasing international movement of physicians, with substantial numbers of International Medical Graduates (IMGs) now seeking jobs outside the countries in which they were educated. For IMGs there are potential elements of crisis and loss associated with this transition. This article presents findings from Australian-based research which explores the IMGs' experience during entry to their chosen country and posits the need for a des…

Monitoring and Anti-Reductionism in the Epistemology of Testimony
One of the central points of contention in the epistemology of testimony concerns the uniqueness (or not) of the justification of beliefs formed through testimony–whether such justification can be accounted for in terms of, or 'reduced to', other familiar sort of justification, e.g. without relying on any epistemic principles unique to testimony. One influential argument for the reductionist position, found in the work of Elizabeth Fricker, argue…

International economic integration
While the extent of international economic integration is growing, this trend is neither new nor uniform. An economically borderless world does not now exist, nor is it in prospect; and the world economy today is further away from full integration than it was before the First World War. Whether and how far the trend towards integration will continue is not predetermined, but depends on governments. While so-called ‘trade blocs’ are unlikely to be…
An Early Bronze Age 'dagger grave' from Rameldry Farm, near Kingskettle, Fife
In February 2000, ploughing disturbed the capstone of a cist, located on the side of a prominent knowe at Rameldry Farm, near Kingskettle in central Fife. Excavation by Headland Archaeology Ltd on behalf of Historic Scotland revealed a short cist which contained the crouched inhumation of a man aged 40–50, who had suffered from arthritis, some tooth loss and possibly Paget’s Disease. He had been buried wearing a garment adorned with six V-perfora…
Norms, Normative Principles, and Explanation
It seems that hope springs eternal for the cherished idea that norms (or normative principles) explain actions or regularities in actions. But it also seems that there are many ways of going wrong when taking norms and normative principles as explanatory. The author argues that neither norms nor normative principles—insofar as they are the sort of things with normative force—is explanatory of what is done. He considers the matter using both erote…
On the Sociology of Science and the Continuing Importance of Epistemologically Couched Accounts
I argue that there remains a significant place in the sociology of science for epistemologically couched accounts. By examining `strong programme' work, particularly Andrew Pickering's history of HEP, I show how the decidedly social aspects accentuated in sociological accounts typically have parallel epistemic aspects. The treatment of such aspects as explanatory factors often complements decidedly sociological accounts. This view is defended aga…
Explanation and Rationality Naturalized
Familiar accounts have it that one explains thoughts or actions by showing them to be rational. It is common to find that the standards of rationality presupposed in these accounts are drawn from what would be thought to be aprioristic sources. I advance an argument to show this must be mistaken. But, recent work in epistemology and on rationality takes a less aprioristic approach to such standards. Does the new (psychological or cognitive scient…
Norms, Invariance, and Explanatory Relevance
Descriptions of social norms can be explanatory. The erotetic approach to explanation provides a useful framework. I describe one very broad kind of explanation-seeking why-question, a genus that is common to the special sciences, and argue that descriptions of norms can serve as an answer to such why-questions. I draw upon Woodward’s recent discussion of the explanatory role of generalizations with a significant degree of invariance. Description…
Emotion and Devotion, Lingering and Longing in Some Nepali Songs
theoretical strand, I look to recent work on embodiment for help in reworking overly cognitive, symbolic, and functional descriptions of social and musical practices. Looped across my theoretical strand is some work designed to evoke a sense of how some Kathmandu valley musicians express emotion and devotion--especially in bbajan (praise or adoration) songs, but also in songs about love and longing. These threads can be torn apart, but they wrap …
International Economic Cooperation Revisited

Let’s Be Flexible
This paper explores the role and limits of cognitive simulation in understanding or explaining others. In simulation, one puts one’s own cognitive processes to work on pretend input similar to that one supposes that the other plausibly had. Such a process is highly useful. However, it is also limited in important ways. Several limitations fall out from the various forms of cognitive diversity. Some of this diversity results from cultural differen…
Archaeological evidence for 18th-century medical practice in the Old Town of Edinburgh
Articulated human skeletons and disarticulated bones recovered in 1993 from excavations in the area of the former Lady Yester's Kirkyard showed clear evidence of post-mortem dissection. They are identified as the `unclaimed' dead buried by the Royal Infirmary in the second half of the eighteenth century. There was evidence for post-mortem tooth removal from all the dentitions recovered during the excavation, probably for the manufacture of sets o…
International migration
The extent of international economic integration has increased over the past fifty years, and in this context the past decade has been especially notable for the liberalization of both trade and capital flows by many non-OECD countries. But both within and outside the OECD area, liberalization has not extended to cross-border migration. David Henderson considers the reasons for this, and the rationale and ethical basis for external economic polic…
Wittgenstein's Descriptivist Approach to Understanding
In his Remarks on Frazer's Golden Bough, Wittgenstein holds that in studying or interpreting a language and associated activities we should not attempt to explain what goes on, just describe, for description is able to give us everything we could ask for. He seems to presents two arguments for this descriptivist approach. I criticize both. Generally, I argue that Wittgenstein's position seems to presuppose a radical distinction between descriptio…

Further discoveries at Brackmont Mill, Backmont Farm and Tentsmuir, Fife
Three collections are described. 1) The Brackmont sandpit finds of 1954-8 comprise cordoned and collared urns with cremations and a corded beaker covered by a plain bowl without cremation. In an adjoining field a surface scatter of beaker and cordoned sherds suggested a plough-destroyed domestic site and further burials. 2) The Brackmont pit, 4ft across by 3ft deep, contained Late Neolithic sherds, stones, flint and burnt material.

Arid Lands under Agrarian Reform in Northwest Mexico
HE dryness of the country of the northwestern Mexican states of Baja California, Sonora, and Sinaloa has created a situation which demands peculiar adjustments in the application of land reform and land settlement. The implementation of agrarian reform and the particular ways in which the deserts have been converted into irrigated farms has strongly influenced the character of these dry lands. This paper examines and attempts to explain the agric…

Into the west
A previously unknown cemetery of 60 graves, a mix of long cists, partial cists and simple earth-dug graves, with some sub-circular enclosure, was located and excavated on the banks of the Montfode. The work carried out in 2003, in advance of the construction of the A78 bypass. Although frequent throughout the south-east of Scotland, few Early Christian burials have been identified in the south-west. This paper discusses this distribution and the …

"Corn Belt" Cattle Feeding in Eastern Colorado's Irrigated Valleys
F NOR several years the total value of cattle and calves sold alive in Weld County, (Fig. 1), has exceeded that of any other county in the nation.' The spectacular rise in cattle production in this county, and in other irrigated areas in eastern Colorado, is attributable to the intensive use of farmlands for feed crop production and as feed lot bases. Since the middle 1930's the number of cattle on feed in has increased by over 200 per cent (Tabl…

On the Testability of Psychological Generalizations (Psychological Testability)
Rosenberg argues that intentional generalizations in the human sciences cannot be law-like because they are not amenable to significant empirical refinement. This irrefinability is said to result from the principle that supposedly controls in intentional explanation also serving as the standard for successful interpretation. The only credible evidence bearing on such a principle would then need conform to it. I argue that psychological generaliza…
