Study Protocol for the Participate Project
INTRODUCTION: Public and patient involvement (PPI) is increasingly recognised as essential in health research, service development and clinical audit. However, while Irish national guidance encourages PPI in audit, there is limited evidence on how to implement it meaningfully in maternity care. The PARTICIPATE Project aims to address this gap by exploring awareness and barriers to PPI in maternity clinical audits in Ireland, co-creating accessibl…
Hopelessness for family members of individuals with borderline personality disorder
Family members and loved ones of individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can experience high levels of distress. Types of distress reported by family members include burden, grief, depression, guilt, and powerlessness. Hopelessness is a construct that has received little attention despite its potential relevance for this group. This study sought to examine, and assess potential change in, hopelessness among individuals attending a …

Investigating the effectiveness of three school based interventions for preventing psychotic experiences over a year period – a secondary data analysis study of a randomized control trial
This study provides the first evidence for a school based intervention that reduce & prevent PEs in adolescence. This intervention is a combination of a school-based screening for psychopathology and subsequent referral intervention significantly reduced PEs in adolescents. Although further research is needed, our findings point to the effectiveness of school-based programmes for prevention of future mental health problems

Heaney's The Cure at Troy and the Christian Virtue of Hope
Heaney’s The Cure at Troy and the Christian Virtue of Hope Paul Corcoran ‘Believe that a further shore Is reachable from here’. Introduction The penultimate chorus of Seamus Heaney’s Cure at Troy contains perhaps the poet’s most oft-quoted words. They cap the tone of a work that ‘proceeds from, and ends in, optimism’.1 Delivered through an adaptation of Sophocles’ ancient Greek tragedy, Philoctetes, and addressed delicately to a divided Ireland e…

John Stuart Mill's Political Pessimism
John Stuart Mill devoted much of his life to developing a ‘science of morality’ to enhance the social, moral and intellectual character of individuals and society as a whole. His liberal aspirations included the reform of legal and political institutions according to utilitarian principles and consistent with personal liberty, and the development of a diverse and creative culture. Paradoxically, Mill, the liberal optimist, was also a pessimist ab…
John Locke on Native Right, Colonial Possession, and the Concept ofVacuum domicilium
The early paragraphs of John Locke’s Second Treatise of Government (1690) describe a poetic idyll of property acquisition widely supposed by contemporary theorists and historians to have cast the template for imperial possessions in the New World. This reading ignores the surprises lurking in Locke’s later chapters on conquest, usurpation, and tyranny, where he affirms that native rights to lands and possessions survive to succeeding generations.…
Physical activity in European adolescents and associations with anxiety, depression and well-being
Bullying Victimization and Suicide Ideation and Behavior Among Adolescents in Europe
Pathological Internet Use and Risk-Behaviors among European Adolescents
Risk-behaviors are a major contributor to the leading causes of morbidity among adolescents and young people; however, their association with pathological Internet use (PIU) is relatively unexplored, particularly within the European context. The main objective of this study is to investigate the association between risk-behaviors and PIU in European adolescents. This cross-sectional study was conducted within the framework of the FP7 European Uni…

The Saving and Empowering Young Lives in Europe (Seyle) Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT)
US National Institute of Health (NIH) clinical trial registry (NCT00906620) and the German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS00000214)
First‐time mothers
Aims and objectives. To examine the relationships between social support, maternal parental self‐efficacy and postnatal depression in first‐time mothers at 6 weeks post delivery. Background. Social support conceptualised and measured in different ways has been found to positively influence the mothering experience as has maternal parental self‐efficacy. No research exists which has measured the relationships between social support, underpinned by…
Prevalence of pathological internet use among adolescents in E urope
AIMS: To investigate the prevalence of pathological internet use (PIU) and maladaptive internet use (MIU) among adolescents in 11 European countries in relation to demographic, social factors and internet accessibility. DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey. SETTING: The 7th Framework European Union (EU) funded project, Saving and Empowering Young Lives in Europe (SEYLE), is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluating interventions for risk behaviour…
Impact of different pack sizes of paracetamol in the United Kingdom and Ireland on intentional overdoses
The difference in paracetamol pack size legislation between England and Ireland does not appear to have resulted in a major difference in sizes of overdoses. This is because more pack equivalents are taken in overdoses in Ireland, possibly reflecting differing enforcement of sales advice. Differences in access to clinical services may also be relevant
Saving and Empowering Young Lives in Europe (Seyle)
The German Clinical Trials Register, DRKS00000214
Deliberate self‐harm within an international community sample of young people
Background: Deliberate self‐harm among young people is an important focus of policy and practice internationally. Nonetheless, there is little reliable comparative international information on its extent or characteristics. We have conducted a seven‐country comparative community study of deliberate self‐harm among young people. Method: Over 30,000 mainly 15‐ and 16‐year‐olds completed anonymous questionnaires at school in Australia, Belgium, Engl…
The prevalence of self-reported deliberate self harm in Irish adolescents
DSH is a significant problem in Irish adolescents and the vast majority do not come to the attention of health services. Innovative solutions for prevention and intervention are required to tackle DSH in adolescents
Political Recognition and Æsthetic Judgement
The article presents the æsthetic view of politics as basis for ethical and moral appraisal, as well as the cognitive processes and perceptual capacities of recognition. It states that recognition accords legal status and engages a personal obligation to perform a public duty. Moreover, it notes that there has been a surprising reorientation of political recognition in Africa, Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union over the past 20 years. How…
Political Recognition and Æsthetic Judgement
The concept of recognition has been employed as a term of art in sovereign diplomacy, and in a philosophical tradition ranging from Plato to Hegel as an archetype of the emergence of political association leading to ethical civil relations. Recent liberal theorists have adapted the Hegelian 'struggle for recognition' to strengthen the argument for humane respect and human rights in the modern, multicultural state. This article emphasizes the cogn…
The area-level association between hospital-treated deliberate self-harm, deprivation and social fragmentation in Ireland
BACKGROUND: The extensive literature on the area-level association between socioeconomic characteristics and suicide indicates that the more deprived and socially fragmented an area, the higher its suicide rate. Relatively few studies have examined the association between the incidence of non-fatal suicidal behaviour and area characteristics. AIM: This study investigated the area-level association between hospital-treated deliberate self-harm, de…
