  • Measuring delivery and impact in community-based health promotion initiatives

    Open AccessAaron Simpson, Ben Jackson et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2025

    Background: Robust evaluation is critical for understanding and enhancing the impact of health promotion initiatives. However, many community-based organisations face challenges in planning and conducting evaluation due to limitations in knowledge, resources, and the applicability of existing evaluation frameworks. The Healthway Evaluation Framework, and its accompanying practical Measurement Toolkit, was designed to support evaluation planning, …

  • Trajectories of Loneliness During Adolescence Predict Subsequent Symptoms of Depression and Positive Wellbeing

    Open AccessSimon C Hunter, Rebecca Seth et al.ARTICLEJournal of Youth and Adolescence2024Citada por: 1Referências: 50

    There is a need to identify the outcomes of changes in loneliness during adolescence, and to consider this within a multidimensional framework of loneliness. This study considered the effects of different trajectories of change in Isolation Loneliness and in Friendship Loneliness upon both positive wellbeing and symptoms of depression. To achieve this, 1782 (43% female; 12.92 years old at the start of the study, SD = 1.60) young people took part …

  • Structured exercise programs for higher education students experiencing mental health challenges

    Open AccessIvan Jeftic, B Furzer et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023

    The incidence of mental illness is greatest among young adults, and those enrolled in higher education may be particularly vulnerable compared to the general young adult population. Many higher education institutions employ student support staff tasked with implementing strategies to improve student wellbeing and mental illness. However, these strategies tend to be focused on clinical therapies and pharmacological interventions with limited lifes…

  • Making sense of humour among men in a weight-loss program

    Timothy Budden, James A Dimmock et al.ARTICLEQualitative Research in Sport and…2022

    Humour appears to be an important aspect of health-promoting efforts for some men. A better understanding of the role humour plays in men’s health contexts may provide insight into the optimal design of health interventions for men. In this study, we explored the role banter, humour that blurs the line between playfulness and aggression, plays for men in a men’s weight loss context. We applied dialogical narrative analysis to thirty interviews co…

Data were collected in March-June 2021 via an online survey from 15,366 university students from 17 universities in seven ASEAN countries. Analyzed data comprised results on physical activity, health-rela…

  • The clusters of health-risk behaviours and mental wellbeing and their sociodemographic correlates

    Open AccessApichai Wattanapisit, Hanif Abdul Rahman et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2022

    ASEAN university students exhibited health-risk behaviours that typically clustered around a specific health behaviour and mental wellbeing. The results provided support for focusing interventions on one dominant health-risk behaviour, with associated health-risk behaviours within clusters being potential mediators for consideration

  • The Influence of the Early Childhood Education and Care Environment on Young Children’s Physical Activity

    Open AccessClover Maitland, Leanne Lester et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2020

    (1) Background: Participation in physical activity is crucial for the healthy growth and development of young children. More robust measurement of environmental influences on children's physical activity in early childhood education and care (ECEC) settings may help resolve inconsistencies in the literature. This study evaluated the reliability of an environmental audit and educator practice survey for assessing ECEC physical, policy, and social …

  • The Effect of Upgrades to Childcare Outdoor Spaces on Preschoolers’ Physical Activity

    Open AccessMichelle Ng, Michael Rosenberg et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2020

    Physical inactivity is a significant risk factor for childhood obesity. Preventing obesity in the early years reduces the risk of developing chronic health conditions later. Early childhood education and care (ECEC) services are important settings to establish good preschooler physical activity behaviors. This natural experiment investigated the influence of ECEC outdoor physical environment upgrade on preschoolers' physical activity (aged 2-5 ye…

  • Associations between the Home Physical Environment and Children’s Home-Based Physical Activity and Sitting

    Open AccessMichael P R Sheldrick, Michael P Sheldrick et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of…2019

    It is important to understand the correlates of children's physical activity (PA) and sitting at home, where children spend significant time. The home social environment has an important influence; however, much less is known about the home physical environment. Therefore, the study aimed to assess relationships between the physical environment and children's sitting and PA at home. In total, 235 child-parent dyads were included in the analyses. …

  • Signs of Virginity

    Michael RosenbergBOOKSigns of Virginity2018

    The notion that bleeding “should” accompany the “loss” of female virginity—a mode of thinking about virginity that encourages male sexual aggression—is so widespread that it is often taken for granted. Yet, Michael Rosenberg argues in Signs of Virginity that this idea is a specific product of Deut. 22:13–21. Deuteronomy’s violent virginity has held sway in Jewish and Christian circles more or less ever since, but Rosenberg points to two writers—A…

  • Open Doors and Accused Brides

    Michael RosenbergBOOKSigns of Virginity2018

    The Babylonian Talmud introduces an entirely new standard for testing a woman’s virginity—a groom’s subjective experience of his bride as an “open door” rather than “locked.” This standard places even greater power in the hands of men, thus diminishing the safety of new brides. At the same time, it generates a discourse of male sexuality that discourages aggressive sexual activity—a revolution in sexual ideals. The chapter then studies the series…

  • Impure Nuptials and Sex as Work

    Michael RosenbergBOOKSigns of Virginity2018

    A number of Talmudic passages, not specifically about virginity testing, buttress the claims made in the previous chapter. The Babylonian Talmud creates a legal culture in which wedding-night bleeding triggers a prohibition on any further sexual relations, thus discouraging sexual aggression. Similarly, the Babylonian Talmud’s discussion of first-time penetrative intercourse on the Sabbath focuses on divorcing the sexual act from acts of violence…

  • Reciprocal Relationships between Trajectories of Depressive Symptoms and Screen Media Use during Adolescence

    Open AccessStephen Houghton, David Lawrence et al.ARTICLEJournal of Youth and Adolescence2018Citada por: 5Referências: 53

    Adolescents are constantly connected with each other and the digital landscape through a myriad of screen media devices. Unprecedented access to the wider world and hence a variety of activities, particularly since the introduction of mobile technology, has given rise to questions regarding the impact of this changing media environment on the mental health of young people. Depressive symptoms are one of the most common disabling health issues in …

  • Development of the Adolescent Preoccupation with Screens Scale

    Open AccessSimon C Hunter, Stephen Houghton et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2017

    The APSS provides researchers with a new, brief and robust measure of potentially problematic screen use across a wide array of screens, including mobile devices, so readily accessed during adolescence

  • Ghosh, Peter, Max Weber and the Protestant Ethic

    Open AccessMichael RosenbergARTICLEThe Canadian Journal of Sociology2016

    argues that The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism (hereafter, PE) was Max Weber's key work, encapsulating all Weber had done before its publication as well all that came afterward.Indeed, demonstrating that Weber and the PE share a "twin history" is the fundamental goal of the book, which is less concerned with explicating the PE and more concerned with arguing that its themes and concepts resonate within all of Weber's significant so…

  • Penetrating words

    Michael RosenbergARTICLEJournal of Jewish Studies2016Citada por: 1

    Recent research has emphasized the extent of a shared cultural context for Rabbinic Judaism and early Christianity, especially in the Roman East and the western portions of the Sasanian Empire. This article argues that a challenging passage in Tractate Ketubot of the Babylonian Talmud is best explained in light of tropes about the Virgin Mary and the Annunciation that were particularly common and beloved in Syriac Christian texts. This finding no…

  • Sexual Serpents and Perpetual Virginity

    Michael RosenbergARTICLEThe Jewish Quarterly Review2016

    This article explores a midrash in the Babylonian Talmud that features the trope of the hind, an animal referred to multiple times in rabbinic literature as being noteworthy for its vaginal narrowness. The author argues that the midrash reveals significant awareness of Christian tropes about Mary the mother of Jesus—and in particular, tropes with especial currency in Christian circles in eastern Syria and the western reaches of the Sasanian Empir…

  • Virtually impossible

    Open AccessStephen Houghton, Simon C Hunter et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    Current paediatric recommendations pertaining to SBMU may no longer be tenable because screen based media are central in the everyday lives of children and adolescents. In any reappraisal of SBMU exposure times, researchers, educators and health professionals need to take cognizance of the extent to which SBMU differs across specific screen activity, sex, and age

  • Employers’ views on the promotion of workplace health and wellbeing

    Open AccessMelanie Pescud, Renee Teal et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2015

    Progress may be viable in promoting health and wellbeing if a multifaceted approach is employed taking into account the complex factors influencing employers' views.
