A Program-Level Framework for Practice-Based, Equity-Centered Science Teacher Education
Model‐Based Inquiry
Students' opportunity to learn (OTL) is a central theme in recent discussions of educational equity. Building on prior research, we argue that students' effective participation in scientific practices serves as a key indicator for measuring OTL and that model‐based inquiry (MBI) offers an instructional framework to support such participation in K‐12 science classrooms. However, most studies exploring students' experiences with scientific practice…

Embracing Asset Perspectives in Science Education Research
This editorial urges a shift in science education research from deficit‐oriented framings, which portray learners in terms of what they lack, to asset‐based perspectives that recognize and build on the cultural, social, and cognitive resources learners bring. Deficit framings obscure diverse ways of knowing and reinforce systemic inequities through narrow accountability structures. Drawing on recent studies, we show how asset perspectives can rev…

Talk moves as pedagogical tools for eliciting and working with student ideas in an undergraduate general biology laboratory
Eliciting student thinking as resources for learning is central to productive sense making. Educators use pedagogical tools such as talk moves to direct classroom conversations toward and sometimes away from student learning. This mixed methods study describes how teaching assistants (TAs) use talk moves as pedagogical tools to elicit and work with student ideas in an undergraduate general biology laboratory course. We combined mixed‐effects mode…
Investigating the impact of eliciting and being responsive to students' initial ideas on productive disciplinary engagement across a unit
In this study, we examined the ways in which two middle school science teachers elicited and were responsive to students' initial science ideas for explaining an anchoring phenomenon while teaching the same model‐based learning unit focused on plate tectonics. Data sources included student models, classroom video, and classroom artifacts. Our analysis revealed a connection between the elicitation of initial ideas, teacher responsiveness to those …
A Factorial Survey Investigating the Effect of Disclosing Parental Intellectual Disability on Risk Assessments by Children’s Social Workers in Child Safeguarding Scenarios
Literature suggests that, as parents, people with intellectual disabilities experience disproportionately high rates of child removal compared to other groups. A factorial survey of 191 children’s social workers investigated the effect of disclosing parental intellectual disability (ID) upon risk assessments in a range of hypothetical child safeguarding scenarios. The case scenarios depicted a range of child safeguarding situations and parents’ I…
A Factorial Survey Investigating the Effect of Disclosing Parental Intellectual Disability on Risk Assessments by Children's Social Workers in Child Safeguarding Scenarios
The British Journal of Social Work, (2020) 50, 1185–1200. https://doi.org/10.1093/bjsw/bcz076 In the above article, the title was originally published as ‘A Factorial Survey Investigating the Effect of Disclosing Parental Intellectual Disability on Risk Assessments by Children's Social Worker in Child Safeguarding Scenarios.’ ‘Social Worker’ has now been made plural. The author apologises for this error.
Caregiver versus self-reported activities of daily living among HIV-positive persons in Rakai, Uganda
Assessment of an individual's functional status, as measured by activities of daily living (ADL), is an essential element in the diagnosis of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) but individuals with cognitive impairment may not accurately report ADL. We assessed agreement between self- and caregiver-reported ADL in HIV-positive persons. Antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naïve HIV-positive persons (n = 321) and HIV-negative controls (n = 134…
Health in pregnancy and post-birth
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe the major factors affecting health during pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period and outline the evidence for interventions to improve outcomes in women and their children. Design/methodology/approach – Selective review of the literature. A number of electronic bibliographic databases were searched, including the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, PubMed and PsycINFO, for relevant studie…
Risk and Protective Correlates of Young Women s First Sexual Experiences in Rakai, Uganda
CONTEXT: Sexually active young women bear the brunt of the HIV epidemic in Sub-Saharan Africa. Information is needed on risk and protective correlates at the family, partner and individual level for the design of programs to encourage safer sexual behaviors and reduce HIV risk among young women. METHODS: The study was conducted among 1,675 sexually experienced women aged 15-24 living in Rakai, Uganda. The sample was taken from an ongoing communit…
A Public Health Approach to Intimate Partner Violence Prevention in Uganda
Research from Rakai, Uganda, suggests intimate partner violence (IPV) is common and attitudes condoning it are widespread. We used a public health approach to develop and implement an evidence-based IPV prevention intervention named the Safe Homes and Respect for Everyone (SHARE) Project. SHARE was designed on the Transtheoretical Model of behavior change and adapted IPV prevention strategies from Raising Voices and Stepping Stones. SHARE was imp…
Non-enrollment for free community HIV care
Improved understanding of HIV-related health-seeking behavior at a population level is important in informing the design of more effective HIV prevention and care strategies. We assessed the frequency and determinants of failure to seek free HIV care in Rakai, Uganda. HIV-positive participants in a community cohort who accepted VCT were referred for free HIV care (cotrimoxazole prophylaxis, CD4 monitoring, treatment of opportunistic infections, a…
Measuring quality of life among HIV-infected women using a culturally adapted questionnaire in Rakai district, Uganda
To examine self-reported quality of life and health status of HIV-infected women and a comparison sample of HIV-uninfected women in rural Uganda, we culturally adapted a Lugandan version of the Medical Outcomes Survey-HIV (MOS-HIV). We administered a cross-sectional survey among 803 women (239 HIV-positive and 564 HIV-negative) enrolled in a community study to evaluate maternal and child health in Rakai District, Uganda. The interview took 20 min…
Does biological relatedness affect child survival
Objective: We studied child survival in Rakai, Uganda where many children are fostered out or orphaned. Methods: Biological relatedness is measured as the average of the Wrightâ s coefficients between each household member and the child. Instrumen
Contraceptive usage during lactation
Data from the National Survey of Family Growth are analyzed to estimate the prevalence of contraceptive use during lactation. Approximately 20 per cent of lactating women were sexually active and did not use a method in months two through six, postpartum. Among method users, the largest proportion chose barrier methods but 14 per cent used oral contraceptives in the early postpartum period. Between 1973 and 1976 there was an increase in the perce…
The Effect of Fecundity of Pill Acceptance During Postpartum Amenorrhea
This article examines the results of a previous study conducted in Matlab Thana, Bangladesh. That study suggested that women who accepted the pill during postpartum amenorrhea experienced an actual decrease in the interval to the next pregnancy, while the group of nonacceptors experienced no such decrease in the birth interval. This article suggests that there might have been problems of bias in the selection of the groups as well as with the met…
