AAAJ, thematic special issues and research innovation: revisiting the next decade

Purpose Expanding upon the special issue entitled “The special issue: AAAJ and research innovation”, published in 2012, this introduction to the second special issue of the genre is concerned with selected thematic special issues of AAAJ appearing during the second decade of publication from 1998 to 2007. The paper explores research innovation by means of the thematic issues addressed from this decade. Design/methodology/approach This paper provides a background to this special issue and an outline of the articles included. The issue features seven retrospective/prospective articles written by the guest editors of special thematic issues published during 1998 to 2007, supplemented where appropriate by other co-authors or, in one instance, by a new author team. Findings The guest editors and other contributing authors sought to identify and discuss the progression of each field since the AAAJ special issue was published, and to assess the impacts of the special issues to this progression, and to propose future research developments in the designated fields. Research limitations/implications This commentary on articles published is no substitute for carefully reading these contributions. The papers provide a comprehensive review of key developments in the literature until most recently and explore the opportunities for further innovative interdisciplinary accounting research. Originality/value This AAAJ special issue, and the earlier 2012 prototype, constitute a different approach to producing special issues, where the original special issues are revisited with a view to assessing research trends and impacts and to identifying research developments which are ripe for pursuing in each of these interdisciplinary accounting fields.
The role of cytokines in restenosing coronary stents and the efficiency of its secondary prophylaxis with statins

Abstract This study was designed to assess the diagnostic value of dynamic patterns of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1b, IL-6, TNF-alpha) in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) and restenosis of coronary stents 14 months after their implantation for long-term prophylaxis of dyslipoproteinemia. A total of 40 patients with IHD of advanced functional classes (FC) were examined. Blood cytokine levels were measured before, 1 day, and 12-18 months after coronary stenting. Two groups of 23 and 17 patients included cases with recurrent angina and without it respectively. The main parameters measured in the study were in-stent restenosis rate, incidence of' acute myocardial infarction (AMI), mortality rate, frequency of hospitalization for unstable angina, and the levels of proinflammatory cytokines. Considerable activation of cytokines in patients with post-infarction cardiac dysfunction who rarely resorted to therapy with statins (16.7%) was associated with the high rate of recurrent coronary insufficiency related to in-stent occlusion (8.7%), progressive atherosclerosis (65.2%), impaired myocardial perfusion, and restenosis of coronary stents (26.1%). Patients lacking apparent expression of serum cytokines after revascularization while receiving efficacious secondary prophylaxis of dyslipidemia (13.8 and 17% decrease of triglycerides (TG) and low density lipoproteins (LDL) cholesterol respectively, p = 0.04) had left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) improved by 12.5% (p = 0.03%), left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) decreased by 15.8% (p = 0.03), and frequency of ischemic perfusion defect (PD) reduced by 45.3% (p = 0.01). Moreover, they showed low incidence of progressive coronary atherosclerosis (17.6%) in the absence of in-stent restenosis. It is concluded that the frequency of restenosis of coronary stents after endovascular myocardial revascularization depends on the preprocedural rise in IL-1b content (R = 0.62, p = 0.0023). It is concluded that long-term secondary prophylaxis of dyslipoproteinemia in patients with ischemic dysfunction at risk of coronary restenosis effectively (more than thrice) decreases the occurrence of coronary stent restenosis after endovascular revasularization.
PSYCHO-SOCIAL IMPACTS ASSOCIATED WITH MELASMA (MASK OF PREGNANCY)

The skin is an organ with great visibility and exterior recognition: its changes can provoke a significant psychological impact. Considering the changes which occur during pregnancy and the importance of the planning of strategic and preventive actions, this study aimed to describe and analyze the repercussions of the mask of pregnancy in the routine of women affected by it. 84 puerperas attended in primary health centers participated. The data was collected by interview and the treatment was based in thematic analysis. The codified responses resulted in five categories: feelings of dissatisfaction; impaired self-image and esthetic dimensions; strategies for hiding the mark; difficulties faced and perception on the concept of normality. The participants' accounts evidenced psychological suffering; it was ascertained that the skin blemishes are integrated into the women's lives, and take on an important meaning because they impact on the emotional, relational and financial spheres. This situation requires the practices currently used in attending these women to be reviewed. DESCRIPTORS: Skin; Melanosis; Pregnancy; Nursing.
The Paroxetine 352 Bipolar Study Revisited: Deconstruction of Corporate and Academic Misconduct

Medical ghostwriting is the practice in which pharmaceutical companies engage an outside writer to draft a manuscript submitted for publication in the names of “honorary authors,” typically academic key opinion leaders. Using newly-posted documents from paroxetine litigation, we show how the use of ghostwriters and key opinion leaders contributed tothe publication of a medical journal article containing manipulated outcome data to favor the proprietary medication.The article was ghostwritten and managed by SmithKline Beecham, now GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and Scientific Therapeutics Information, Inc. without acknowledging their contribution in the published article. The named authors with financial ties to GSK had little or no direct involvement in the paroxetine 352 bipolar trial results and most had not reviewed any of the manuscript drafts. The manuscript was originally rejected by peer review; however, its ultimate acceptance to the American Journal of Psychiatrywas facilitated by the journal editor who also had financial ties to GSK. Thus, GSK was able to take an under-powered and non-informative trial with negative results and present it as a positive marketing vehicle for off-label promotion of paroxetine for bipolar depression. In addition to the commercial spin of paroxetine efficacy, important protocol-designated safety data were unreported that may have shown paroxetine to produce potentially harmful adverse events.
Thought on the Development Mode of Community Health Service Settings in the Elderly Supporting Mechanism Construction

Elderly support has become an important public health problem that is urgent to be solved,and it is essential to explore a scientific mode for elderly supporting mechanism construction. Community- family endowment is a suitable model for China' s characteristics,which caters to the emotional needs of the elderly,saves social pension cost,improves the quality of elderly support,and reduces the pressure of family members. Currently,the greatest difficulty faced by the community- family endowment is the medical issue,and the development of community health service settings is the key and basis for accelerating the construction of elderly support mechanism. Datun Community Health Service Center helped residents had access to community- family endowment by taking an important part in medical conjoined construction,providing family doctor service and stabilizing the team of general practitioners. With Datun Community Health Service Center as a model case,we investigated the development mode of community health service settings in the construction of elderly supporting mechanism in order to provide valuable experience for building community family endowment mechanism.
“Isutan Jarat” A Traditional Game to Improve Perception and Autism Concentration in the Barito Riverside

The difficulty of finding media to play in the Barito Riverside Stream, affects the low level of autistic children in the development of perception, attention, and communication because of those aspects. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of traditional games Isutan Jarat to help the development of autistic children. The single subject research method with the design of cross variable multiple baselines are used to reveal the effect of treatment or intervention on the target behavior. The results of data analysis show that the traditional game Isutan Jarat Effective Line is used to improve the perception, attention, and concentration of autism. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that the Isutan Jarat game is used as an alternative play media for autistic children in the Barito Riverside Stream.
Gender (Conformity) Matters: Cross-Dimensional and Cross-Modal Associations in Sexual Orientation Perception

Although sexual orientation (SO) is perceptually ambiguous, people are able to detect it with above-chance accuracy from faces and, sometimes, from voices. Despite a multitude of “gaydar” studies, it is unclear (1) whether vocal or facial signals carry more SO information, (2) whether raters refer to target’s SO instead of gender-role conformity when forming SO impressions, and (3) whether there are any differences for female and male targets. We collected face photographs, voice recordings, and self-reported gender-role conformity of 18 lesbian/gay and straight female and male target persons each. Study 1 (rating of SO) showed that faces led to higher accuracies than voices, which was especially true for female targets. Study 2 (rating of gender-role conformity) showed that the link between self-reported and attributed SO was mediated by self-reported and attributed gender-role conformity. Results support the centrality of gender-role conformity, more than that of SO, in impression formation.
Use of PrEP, sexual behaviors and mental health correlates in a sample of gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men

Abstract We sought to document the correlates of mental health and sexual behaviors of PrEP using and non-using gay, bisexual, and other MSM. Depression, anxiety and internalized homophobia scores were all significantly lower for PrEP users compared to HIV-negative non-PrEP users. PrEP use was found to moderate the relationship between anxiety and condomless anal intercourse (CAI), such that rates of anxiety were higher for non-PrEP users reporting greater numbers of CAI partners, while remaining stable for PrEP users. Use of PrEP was associated with lower levels of depression, anxiety, and internalized homophobia.
Black-Owned Small Business Survivors of Business Gentrification in the Bradhurst Neighborhood of Harlem, New York

This study explored how Black-owned small businesses survived the business gentrification in the Harlem neighborhood of Bradhurst. The research methodology used was a mixed-methods, explanatory, sequential design. In the quantitative phase, survey data were used to describe how many Black-owned small businesses survived the business gentrification. In the quantitative phase, the researcher found a total of 74 (N) eligible Black-owned small businesses survivors. The Black-owned small businesses consisted of 28%, or 21, of the 74 business that existed prior to the period of gentrification and that survived after gentrification. There were 18%, or 13, of the 74 Black-owned small businesses that started during, and existed after, the business gentrification. In the qualitative phase, the researcher conducted six qualitative semi-structured interviews of Black-owned small business survivors. The qualitative findings of this study suggest that the Black-owned small businesses employed five key strategies to survive the business gentrification by managing the change in the business environment, identifying new business opportunities, securing capital financing for growth, taking advantage of technical assistance from local sources, and increasing education and leadership in operating their businesses. The quantitative and qualitative findings were then integrated for a better understanding of the strategies employed by the Black-owned small businesses to survive. Recommendations for stakeholders are to develop educational programs tailored to Black-owned small businesses, to create business-building strategies to enhance the resources needed to manage change in a changing business environment, and to stabilize the finances of their businesses for maximization and long-term business growth. The study was intended to be useful to policy makers, businesses, and educators.

Evidence for a Central Mechanism in Angiotensin Induced Hypertension.∗

Summary Angiotensin II appears to produce an increase in blood pressure by 2 mechanisms: 1. A direct peripheral action on the vascular smooth musculature producing a marked increase in peripheral resistance, which is not blocked by piperoxan. 2. A central hypertensive effect, probably due to stimulation of central sympathetic structures and evoking peripheral sympathetic discharges, which are blocked by administration of a sympatholytic agent into the peripheral circulation.
Disciplinarity and Disparity in Applied Linguistics

I am greatly honoured to be invited to address you on this occasion, to represent the sadly dwindling number of BAAL veterans who were there at the founding of this association. And it is good to know that the traditional respect for the aged is itself not entirely a thing of the past. This respect does not, of course, necessarily extend to what opinions they express. ‘Do not let me hear of the wisdom of old men,’ and I do not claim that wisdom is what you are going to get. What you will get is my own view of applied linguistics as I see it from the perspective of the past. This is not the first time I have held forth about what applied linguistics is, or should be, all about and so this talk is in part a kind of collage, the variation on a theme whereby I take up, and take further, issues I have raised elsewhere (Widdowson 1980, 2000, 2005). So you may not hear anything in the way of wisdom in what I have to say, but I hope it just might stimulate some critical thinking about the activity that 50 years ago this association was founded to promote. How applied linguistics is to be defined has always been a matter of contention, but there is general agreement that it has two distinguishing features. One is that its purpose is to engage with problems to do with language that are
Therapist Reported Reasons for Client Termination: A Content Analysis of Termination Reports

Abstract Client termination is prevalent yet not fully understood. Research has provided some reasons, but more information is needed to fully grasp the subject. The authors of this study sought to enhance understanding regarding why clients terminate therapy by exploring therapist perspectives through reports of client termination. Data were collected from 201 therapist termination reports. A qualitative content analysis was conducted. Findings were categorized and aggregated under thematic descriptions. Results revealed themes for why clients terminated therapy. Some of the findings included: progress towards or goals met, no show/no response, school break, and time/scheduling issue. Results are discussed and implications are provided.
Étude exploratoire de la fréquence des catégories linguistiques dans quatre genres discursifs en LSF

Cet article presente une analyse de quatre genres discursifs en LSF : narratif, explicatif, argumentatif et dialogal. Les donnees sont issues de deux corpus, le corpus LS-COLIN (Cuxac et coll., 2002) et le corpus Creagest (Garcia, L’Huillier & Vincent, 2015) et ont ete annotees avec les logiciels Excel et ELAN. L’objectif est de voir s’il existe une systematicite dans la frequence et le type de categories linguistiques au regard du genre discursif. Les categories linguistiques utilisees sont celles proposees dans l’approche semiologique (Cuxac, 2000) qui suggerent l’existence de deux grands types d’unites en LSF, toutes deux morphologiquement compositionnelles : d’une part, les unites relevant d’une visee illustrative, et appelees « unites de transferts » et, d’autre part, les unites relevant d’une visee non illustrative que sont les unites lexicales, les pointages et la dactylologie. Des statistiques descriptives viennent completer la vision globale des donnees fournies par les effectifs bruts et les proportions des categories linguistiques pour chaque genre discursif. Par ailleurs, et c’est un fait interessant, les statistiques retrouvent de maniere automatique la repartition entre les deux grands types d’unites, alors que les donnees n’ont pas ete annotees de maniere explicite avec cette distinction.
Instructing Students How to Use Evidence-based Technology Interventions with Older Adults

Current evidence supports the use of technology with older adults and the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education standards for entry-level occupational therapy programs mandate instruction on the use of technology to support occupational performance. The literature does not clearly define specific strategies to teach entry-level occupational therapy students how to implement technology interventions with older adults. The purpose of this paper is to provide OT educators with recommendations for teaching entry-level students to use evidence-based technology with older adults. The authors reviewed current literature. The recent evidence helped the authors define practical curriculum recommendations for instructing entry-level occupational therapy students to integrate technology into older adults’ interventions. Recommendations include use of telehealth visits, teleconferencing, iPad applications, smart phone applications, texting, emails, and video applications. With technology continually changing, occupational therapy instructors must increase their awareness of new applications and computer programs that occupational therapists can utilize in older adult interventions to maximize knowledge translation to their students.
The facets of meaningful experiences: An examination of purpose and coherence in meaningful and meaningless events

ABSTRACT Research on meaning has begun to assess the specific facets of meaning in life. Few studies have examined the extent to which these facets distinguish meaning at the level of individual events. In the present study, participants from Singapore and the U.S. wrote about meaningful and meaningless events and rated the extent to which they experienced purpose, coherence, positive and negative implications for self and others, positive affect, and negative affect. In both samples, meaningful and meaningless events differed most in their levels of positive affect, purpose, and positive implications for the self. When entered as predictors of overall event meaningfulness, purpose and positive affect independently predicted meaning. Measures of coherence did not predict the meaningfulness of event with one exception. The extent to which an event offered a new understanding predicted meaning above and beyond purpose and PA. Implications for meaning assessment and theories of meaning are discussed.
Competitor derogation in romantic jealousy and friendship rivalry.

The present study tested whether different psychological mechanisms are defending threats to romantic relationships and close same-sex friendships. Depending on condition, the participants first read a scenario that introduced a competitor threatening either a romantic relationship or a close same-sex friendship. Subsequently, the participants rated the competitor with respect to twelve characteristics. Four each of these characteristics referred to dimensions particularly relevant for female romantic, male romantic and friendship competitor derogation. Ratings were made on scales allowing for a derogatory, neutral or favourable portrayal of the competitor. The results showed competitor derogation in the romantic but not in the friendship condition across all characteristics. Overall, men more than women in the romantic condition tended to provide more derogatory competitor ratings. Limitations of the present study and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Impact du niveau d’interactivité du récit sur l’apprentissage

L’objectif de cette recherche est d’analyser l’effet du niveau d’interactivite du recit sur l’apprentissage. Nous nous sommes interesses egalement a l’impact de l’interactivite du recit sur le sentiment de controle, de curiosite et de frustration envers le monde de l’histoire. Deux versions du meme recit avec un niveau d’interactivite different ont ete construites. Ensuite, une experience a ete menee aupres de 30 participants. Les resultats concernant le gain d’apprentissage entre le pre-test et le post-test indiquent l’efficacite d’utilisation du recit interactif. Cependant, les resultats montrent qu’il n’y a pas de difference significative sur l’apprentissage entre les deux niveaux d'interactivite. Le niveau d’interactivite du recit n’impacte pas non plus le sentiment de controle, de curiosite et de frustration envers le monde de l’histoire. Ces resultats rejettent nos hypotheses emises au depart et soulevent des questions pour les recherches futures.
