‘Pride not profit’
BACKGROUND: The role of the commercial sector in driving population health outcomes is gaining attention; yet the influence of commercial entities and practices on Indigenous health is underexplored. This case study examined the separate legal disputes between Clothing The Gaps (an Aboriginal business, social enterprise and B-Corp) and two for-profit commercial clothing companies, investigating their potential impact on Aboriginal health and well…
Association of Perceived Neighborhood Disorder with Substance Use Behaviors and Retail Access Among Southern California Adolescents
BACKGROUND: Neighborhood disadvantage is associated with a higher concentration of tobacco, cannabis and alcohol retailers and greater risk of certain substance use behaviors among youth. Less is known about the impact of subjective neighborhood disorder, which captures distinct exposures that may be relevant to substance use outcomes, including neighborhood social processes, safety, physical characteristics, and neighborhood drug use. METHODS: =…
Prospective association of tobacco retailer density and neighbourhood walkability with youth vaping initiation in California, USA
Findings highlight the potential role of restricting retailer density in preventing youth vaping, particularly in areas characterised by both greater walkability and tobacco retailer density
Storytelling and affiliation between healthcare staff in Schwartz Round interactions
It is well known that the demands of working in healthcare can take a psychological toll on staff. Schwartz Centre Rounds are an intervention aimed at supporting staff wellbeing through providing a forum to talk about the emotional, social and ethical complexities of such work, employing facilitated storytelling and group discussion to try and achieve this. However, while prior research, through extensive interviews and surveys, has found Schwart…
The Her Tribe and His Tribe Aboriginal-Designed Empowerment Programs
This study documents evaluation of the Her Tribe and His Tribe Aboriginal-designed empowerment pilot programs. The programs were designed to support Victorian Aboriginal people to strengthen mental health, social and emotional wellbeing, community connection, and to reduce psychological distress. A second aim was to explore participants' experiences of the programs, including the feasibility and acceptability of the evaluation component. Her Trib…
Climate change effects on biodiversity, ecosystems, ecosystem services, and natural resource management in the United States
Climate change is a pervasive and growing global threat to biodiversity and ecosystems. Here, we present the most up-to-date assessment of climate change impacts on biodiversity, ecosystems, and ecosystem services in the U.S. and implications for natural resource management. We draw from the 4th National Climate Assessment to summarize observed and projected changes to ecosystems and biodiversity, explore linkages to important ecosystem services,…
Unfamiliar Territory
Novel forms of drought are emerging globally, due to climate change, shifting teleconnection patterns, expanding human water use, and a history of human influence on the environment that increases the probability of transformational ecological impacts. These costly ecological impacts cascade to human communities, and understanding this changing drought landscape is one of today's grand challenges. By using a modified horizon-scanning approach tha…
Understanding Key-Informant Experiences and Perceptions of the 2016 Drought and Wildfires in Western North Carolina
In 2016, an exceptional drought and subsequent wildfires devastated the southeastern United States. Western North Carolina (WNC), a socioeconomically growing region that is dependent on revenue from tourism and agriculture, was particularly impacted by the events. The Southeast is not typically considered to be water vulnerable, and few studies have explored drought and wildfire in WNC. However, the region is projected to experience elevated wate…
Multiple conceptualizations of nature are key to inclusivity and legitimacy in global environmental governance
Treatment Recommendations as Actions
From the earliest studies of doctor-patient interaction (Byrne & Long, 1976), it has been recognized that treatment recommendations may be expressed in more or less authoritative ways, based on their design and delivery. There are clear differences between I'm going to start you on X and We can give you X to try and Would you like me to give you X? Yet little is known about this variation, its contexts, or its consequences. In this paper, we deve…
I can be your Tinder nightmare”
On Instagram, the accounts Bye Felipe and Tinder Nightmares feature screen-grabbed messages of sexist abuse and harassment women have received from men on dating apps. This paper presents a discursive analysis of 526 posts from these Instagrams. Utilising a psychosocial and feminist poststructuralist perspective, it examines how harassing messages reproduce certain gendered discourses and (hetero)sexual scripts, and analyses how harassers attempt…
Adolescents in crisis
Nearly 3 out of 4 all lifelong mental disorders occur by the age of twenty-four. Remote crisis support holds great potential in filling a critical gap in complementing and expanding access to mental health services for acute episodes of mental distress in adolescents and young adults; yet little is understood about the individual factors that influence help-seeking behavior in this group. Recent evidence suggests technology-based mental health se…
Yarning up with Koori kids’ – hearing the voices of Australian urban Indigenous children about their health and well-being
The overwhelming conclusion to be drawn from this research is that Indigenous children in urban areas need ongoing recognition of both their agency and resilience in the face of adversity, within a wider context of historical and contemporary racialisation and racism

Agreement patterns in existential constructions in the New Zealand Niuean community1
This paper examines a small group of Niuean New Zealanders typical of their community; all have English as their primary language, and most only a passive knowledge of the Niuean language. The speakers are members of a lower socio-economic community, yet they lack most of the grammatical variation associated with similar communities which have English as a first language. The paper considers agreement in there existential constructions in the spo…

Niuean English
This paper provides an initial analysis into the phonetic and phonological features of Niuean English as spoken in the New Zealand Niuean community. The paper highlights similarities and differences between New Zealand English and Niuean English, points to subtle differences due to potential substratal influences, and considers the effects of recent changes in New Zealand English on the English of Niuean speakers in New Zealand
Dispositional Forgiveness of Self, Others, and Situations
Six studies regarding forgiveness are presented. The Heartland Forgiveness Scale (HFS), a self‐report measure of dispositional forgiveness (with subscales to assess forgiveness of self, others, and situations) was developed and demonstrated good psychometric properties. Forgiveness correlated positively with cognitive flexibility, positive affect, and distraction; it correlated negatively with rumination, vengeance, and hostility. Forgiveness pre…

A Basic Demographic Unit [and Comments and Reply]
In common with other patrilineal band societies, the Australian dialectical tribe is a nonpolitical product of the system of face-to-face interactions characteristic at this economic level. The components of the density of communication, explored in another place, explain the cellular nature of the relatively homogeneous linguistic communities which are recognized by the natives as tribal units. The optimum or equilibrium population for such dial…

An Appropriate Role for Postcolonial Applied Anthropologists
In this paper an attempt is made to show that many of the roles assumed by applied anthropologists are products of the colonial era. On the basis of an empirically founded deductive hypothesis, the substitution of a clear-cut clinical role is suggested as more appropriate to the postcolonial era. Accordingly the decision-making local group, society, or nation itself, rather than a foreign government, state, or association becomes the anthropologi…

Steps Toward a Unified Anthropology [and Comments and Reply]
It is generally recognized that there exists currently a strong trend toward the "fractionation" of anthropology and the "absorption" of its several subdivisions into other disciplines. On the other hand, if we are striving for a balanced perspective on present-day anthropology we should not ignore a concurrent movement toward the integration of biological and sociocultural anthropology into a unified science. In this paper an attempt is made to …

Is Applied Anthropology Helping to Develop a Science of Man
In his review of Muhlmann's collection of theoretical essays, Honigmann1 calls attention to the current peak of brilliance in cultural anthropology. We have but to pause a moment to note the high caliber and originality of much work by anthropologists today. This applies not only to cultural anthropology but to virtually all fields of the discipline: human genetics, linguistics, archaeology, ethnography, and psychiatric anthropology, for example.…
White Pressures on Indian Personality and Culture
The effect of white contacts on two Hopi communities of similar geographic environment and similar cultural heritage has differed significantly. In the one, changes have proceeded according to an essentially integrative pattern, while in the other it has ben disruptive. An inquiry into this problem, by the use of psychological as well as anthropological techniques, reveals the far-reaching significance of the ceremonial system in maintaining the …

Core Values and Diplomacy
It is generally agreed that during the last few years Iceland has scored a diplomatic success. Not only has she formally threatened to withdraw her consent from a treaty arrangement whereby a NATO strategic base and installations have been established on the island and thousands of American troops have been stationed there, but she has gained certain concessions. For the smallest sovereign nation in the United Nations—160,000 islanders barely a d…

Some Perspectives in Applied Anthropology
Due to the war effort, many American anthropologists who have never before worked in the applied field are now bending all their energies in this direction.

In Quest of an Heuristic Approach to the Study of Mankind
The epoch-making revolution that has been taking place in mathematics and physics during the past hundred years is gradually changing our whole conception of reality and of the function of science in regard to it. We have discovered that the “common sense” view of the world which has become ingrained in the feeling-thought habits of Western man, especially since the seventeenth century, contains elements of serious limitation and even an illusion…
