Labour's Planning Reform
This article examines the English planning reform agenda of the Labour government elected in 2024. It frames London's outer boroughs as a critical lens through which to assess it. Drawing on the findings of the cross‐party Suburban Taskforce (2020–2022), the article has particular regard to the proposed reconfiguration of planning committees, the introduction of a ‘grey belt’ designation and new models of environmental mitigation. In a context of…
Changes in activity spaces, life spaces, and exposures to physical activity-promoting environments among women with overweight or obesity
Understanding factors associated with successful adherence and maintenance of weight loss interventions is important to potentially increase efficacy. Activity spaces and environmental exposures are two understudied factors that may be associated with intervention adherence and outcomes. Women with overweight or obesity (n = 498) from two weight loss intervention studies, Reach for Health and Metabolic, Exercise, and Nutrition at University of Ca…

Participatory planning literature has yet to fully engage with the situatedness of community engagement and diverse experiences of involvement. In this article, nine dimensions based in core concepts of engagement in decision-making are explored using data co-produced with community researchers. Empowerment, influence and inclusion are distinguished as: connection and legitimacy of voice; enacting change in development or plans; and the represent…
Association between cardiovascular health and perceived quality of life in ethnically diverse adults
Ideal or intermediate CVH health factors and health behaviors were associated with higher PQoL. Sex and ethnicity differences suggest that perceived quality of life is associated with BMI for women and non-Hispanics
Crime-related perceptions and walking for recreation inside and outside one's home neighborhood
Movement- and Posture-based Measures of Sedentary Patterns and Associations with Metabolic Syndrome in Hispanic/Latino and non-Hispanic Adults
Background Sedentary behavior has been identified as a significant risk factor for Metabolic Syndrome (MetS). However, it is unclear if the sedentary pattern measurement approach (posture vs. movement) impacts observed associations or if associations differ for Hispanic/Latino communities, who have higher risk of MetS. Methods Participants from the Community of Mine (CoM) study (N = 602) wore hip-based accelerometers for 14 days and completed Met…
Social infrastructure and ‘left-behind places’
We explore the making, unmaking and remaking of social infrastructure (SI) in ‘left-behind places’ (LBPs) through a case study a former mining village in northern England. We address the understudied affective dimensions of ‘left-behindness’. Seeking to move beyond a narrowly economistic of reading LBPs, our framework: strongly emphasises the importance of place attachments and the consequences of their disruption; considers LBPs as ‘moral commun…
Device-Measured and Self-Reported Active Travel Associations with Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors in an Ethnically Diverse Sample of Adults
Active travel (AT) provides an opportunity to alleviate the physical inactivity and climate crises contributing to the global chronic disease burden, including cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Though AT shows promising links to reduced CVD risk, prior studies relied on self-reported AT assessment. In the present study, device-measured and self-reported AT were compared across population subgroups and relationships with CVD risk biomarkers were eval…
Change in GPS-assessed walking locations following a cluster-randomized controlled physical activity trial in older adults, results from the Miparc trial
This study employed novel GPS methods to assess the effect of a multilevel physical activity (PA) intervention on device-measured walking locations in 305 community dwelling older adults, ages 65+ (mean age = 83, 73% women). Retirement communities were randomized to a 1-year PA intervention that encouraged neighborhood walking, or to a healthy aging control condition. Total time and time spent walking in four life-space domains were assessed usin…
Major Wind Energy & the Interface of Policy and Regulation
This article examines how sub-national policy is applied in consenting decisions for major wind energy infrastructure. The study focuses on the Welsh tier of governance and the perspective of the public, building on existing work on ‘territorial politics’ and public participation. It looks explicitly at the regulatory stage of decision-making, which is critical to understanding multi-level governance contexts for energy infrastructure. Two cases …
Protocol for a cross sectional study of cancer risk, environmental exposures and lifestyle behaviors in a diverse community sample
ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02094170 , 03/21/2014
Techniques of Knowing in Administration
Law frequently demands the production, sometimes effortful, of adequate knowledge for decision making. This article explores the challenging epistemic demands made by nature conservation law during planning law approval processes for major offshore wind farms. It explores this area through the prism of co‐production: not only are ‘science’ and ‘facts’ socially and legally constructed, but in addition, scientific and factual findings shape society…
Implementation-effectiveness trial of an ecological intervention for physical activity in ethnically diverse low income senior centers
ClinicalTrials.gov, USA ( NCT02405325 ). Date of registration, March 20, 2015. This website also contains all items from the World Health Organization Trial Registration Data Set
Perceived Neighborhood Environmental Attributes Associated with Walking and Cycling for Transport among Adult Residents of 17 Cities in 12 Countries
Many perceived environmental attributes supported both cycling and walking; however, highly walkable environments may not support cycling for transport. People appear to walk for transport despite safety concerns. These findings can guide the implementation of global health strategies.
Acculturation, Behavioral Factors, and Family History of Breast Cancer among Mexican and Mexican-American Women
Prevention of quality-of-life deterioration with light therapy is associated with changes in fatigue in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage scenarios for the Gulf Cooperation Council region
Depressed Mood and Flow-Mediated Dilation
OBJECTIVE: This systematic and quantitative review evaluates the literature on associations between depressed mood and flow-mediated dilation (FMD), a measure of endothelial function, in adults. METHODS: Published English-language articles (through December 2010) were identified from literature searches, assessed for data extraction, and evaluated for quality. RESULTS: The literature includes cross-sectional (n = 9) and retrospective examinations…
An assessment of the construct validity of the descriptive system for the Icecap capability measure for older people
Valuing the Icecap capability index for older people
Validation of a New Scale for Measuring Concerns of Women Undergoing Assisted Reproductive Technologies (Cart)
A new instrument was developed and assessed for internal consistency, validity and test-retest reliability. A total of 151 women undergoing IVF/GIFT in California rated concern levels about anesthesia, surgery, recovery time, side-effects, finances, missing work, pain, insufficient information and delivering a healthy baby. Validity was assessed by comparing CART to the Infertility Reaction Scale and Bipolar Profile of Moods States, and reliabili…
Age and Ethnicity Differences in Short-Term Heart-Rate Variability
OBJECTIVE: Hypertension is more frequent and more severe in older individuals and in African Americans. Differences in autonomic nervous system activity might contribute to these differences. Autonomic effects on the heart can be studied noninvasively through analysis of heart rate variability (HRV). We examined the effects of age and ethnicity on HRV. METHODS: We studied 135 subjects (57 African Americans and 78 Caucasian Americans), aged 23 to …
