A qualitative investigation of special educational needs student, staff and caregivers’ perceptions of trauma-informed education
Trauma-informed approaches are increasing in educational settings, yet experiential evidence from those most affected remains limited. This study explored how secondary Special Educational Needs (SEN) students, staff, and caregivers experience a whole-school trauma-informed approach. Trauma-informed approach refers to educational practises that prioritise safety, relational support and responsiveness to experiences of trauma. A cross-sectional qu…
Exploring how an e-cigarette intervention influenced tobacco smoking behaviour in people accessing homelessness services
For people accessing homelessness support centres, smoking abstinence remains challenging. More intensive support and a variety of approaches to support smoking cessation, particularly those which address the psychosocial factors which hinder smoking abstinence, may be required. Future research should focus on how this can be achieved
Responding to and managing multijurisdictional outbreaks of Covid-19 in Canadian industrial worksite/work camp settings
Multijurisdictional COVID-19 outbreaks highlighted the importance of public health collaboration with industry partners onsite. The assembly of a national outbreak response team was important to facilitate information sharing and provide technical support. Lessons learned and recommendations on outbreak preparation, detection, management, and communication are included to enhance a response framework applicable to future emerging or re-emerging p…
Exploring LGBT resilience and moving beyond a deficit-model
The aim of this study is to critique and extend psychological approaches to resilience by examining retrospective accounts of LGBT people in England who had directly experienced or witnessed events that were salient as significantly negative or traumatic. Pre-screening telephone interviews identified ten individuals who matched inclusion criteria (mean age: 39 years; range 26–62 years) as part of a larger study. Interviews were semi-structured an…
Gay Men’s Engagement with a Gay Campground Community in the Rural Southern United States
Despite changing societal attitudes and acceptance of sexual minority individuals, gay men continue to seek out sexual minority-specific spaces. These spaces are often assumed to primarily consist of gay venues or neighborhoods in urban and metropolitan areas, but there is also a desire for less traditional gay spaces. To better understand the experiences of contemporary gay men forming connections in one such space and how these connections prom…

Applying cognitive linguistics to instructed L2 learning
This paper reports the results of a quasi-experimental effects-of-instruction study examining the efficacy of applying a Cognitive Linguistic (CL) approach to L2 learning of the semantics of English modals. In spite of their frequency in typical input, modal verbs present L2 learners with difficulties, party due to their inherent complexity — modals typically have two divergent senses — a root1 sense and an epistemic sense. ELT textbooks and most…
Usage-Based Approaches to Language and Their Applications to Second Language Learning
Over the past 20 years, many in the field of second language learning and pedagogy have become familiar with models of language that emphasize its communicative nature. These models are often referred to as usage-based because they emphasize the notion that actual language use is a primary shaper of linguistic form. Supporters of these models also argue that making meaning, that is, the use to which language is put, is central to how language is …
Response to Filipovic Kleiner's (2005) review of Tyler & Evans (2003) The Semantics of English Prepositions
The Semantics of English Prepositions
Using a cognitive linguistics perspective, this book provides a comprehensive, theoretical analysis of the semantics of English prepositions. All English prepositions originally coded spatial relations between two physical entities; while retaining their original meaning, prepositions have also developed a rich set of non-spatial meanings. In this study, Tyler and Evans argue that all these meanings are systematically grounded in the nature of hu…
Reconsidering Prepositional Polysemy Networks
This article explores lexical polysemy through an in-depth examination of the English preposition over. Working within a cognitive linguistic framework, the present study illustrates the nonarbitrary quality of the mental lexicon and the highly creative nature of the human conceptual system. The analysis takes the following as basic: (1) human conceptualization is the product of embodied experience, that is, the kinds of bodies and neural archite…

Sexual Harassment? Cross-Cultural/Cross-Linguistic Perspectives
With the increasing numbers of international graduate students and faculty on US university campuses have come increasing reports of communication problems between these instructors and their US students, including accusations of sexual harassment. We investigate here the key role that culture-specific interpretations of verbal and nonverbal behavior play in effectively communicating in the context of the classroom discourse of US higher educatio…
The Role of Syntactic Structure in Discourse Structure
A qualitative investigation of varying syntactic patterns and their effects on discourse structure was undertaken. The discourse under consideration was the lectures of two first-semester teaching assistants (TAs) in a botany lab, one a native speaker of American English whose discourse was perceived as relatively easy to follow, the other of Korean whose discourse was perceived as relatively difficult to follow. Each TA gave a lecture accompanyi…
The role of repetition in perceptions of discourse coherence
Discourse Structure and the Perception of Incoherence in International Teaching Assistants' Spoken Discourse
Work by discourse analysts shows that listeners' interpretation of discourse is determined not only by a speaker's pronunciation and grammar but also by discourse-level patterns of language use. To date, relatively little is known about the discourse-level patterns typically found in the English of nonnative speakers, how they diverge from discourse produced by native speakers, or how differences in nonnative discourse patterns affect native Engl…

The effect of discourse structuring devices on listener perceptions of coherence in non-native university teacher's spoken discourse
This paper addresses some of the sources of communication difficulty in the academic context through a discourse analytic examination of videotaped teaching demonstrations by 18 Korean and Chinese teaching assistants. It has been suggested that the primary source of listener perceptions of disorganization in spoken academic discourse might be the overall order in which information is presented. This study, however, reveals that rhetorical organiz…
