The Law of Torts in New Zealand
Authors: McLay G
Published: July 2020

This article is a book review of The Law of Torts in New Zealand (2ed, Wellington, 1997) (Todd (general editor), Hughes, Burrows, Chambers, Hawes, Bedggood, Beck) pp 1316 + xcviii, $144 (inclusive of GST). McLay notes that an updated edition of a torts textbook was welcome at the time, providing a useful account of tort law developments at the time of writing by commenting on how the book explores such issues. While elements of the book are praised, McLay notes that the relationship between tort and contract is not developed in the book as it might have been. It is also argued that the book does not go as far as it might have in the area of government liability in negligence, including in the accident compensation chapter. McLay concludes that tort theory is secondary in this book, resulting in a lack of contextual understanding of tort law in New Zealand and the direction it is headed.

The Children, Young Persons, and Their Families Act 1989 ("CYPF Act") recognises that the interests of a child will be generally best served within the family unit. This recognition is subject to the qualification that a child should be removed from that unit whenever there is an unacceptable risk of harm to that child. This analysis will consider one mechanism provided by the Act to facilitate such removal, and the effect of the Court of Appeal decision in R v Kahu.
Intercountry Adoption in New Zealand - A Child Rights Perspective
Authors: Couchman J
Published: July 2020

In 1996, the Adoption Amendment Bill (No 2) was introduced into Parliament. The aim of the Bill was to implement in New Zealand the Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Co-operation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption. New Zealand's accession to the Hague Convention would provide significantly improved protection for some children who come to New Zealand as a result of intercountry adoption. This article provides information on intercountry adoption in New Zealand, the background to the Bill, and concludes that the Bill, if passed in its current form, would fail to provide protection for the majority of children who come to New Zealand as a result of intercountry adoption, and would not fulfil New Zealand's obligations concerning adoption under the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

O Teatro do Oprimido: dimensões políticas e pedagógicas em perspectiva freiriana
Authors: Viana de Souza Silva Francenilza , Vale da Costa Selda
Published: July 2020

O artigo objetiva articular a arte teatral às críticas do contexto social, a partir das concepções teóricas e metodológicas do Teatro do Oprimido, de Augusto Boal. Portanto, trata-se de um estudo teórico que analisa o método teatral que está inserido na proposta do teatro político desse autor, estruturado a partir de seis técnicas que objetivam aproximar o teatro das grandes massas. A prática do Teatro do Oprimido amplia horizontes, exercita a prática do diálogo com diferentes campos do saber. Daí a importância de se conhecerem as conexões existentes entre os fundamentos que embasam esta teoria teatral e a teoria de Paulo Freire. Conclui-se que o Teatro do Oprimido, articulado às perspectivas freiriana, é uma alternativa para que os atores sociais reflitam sobre as formas de opressões presentes na sociedade, para romper com as relações verticalizadas, autoritárias e centralizadoras, uma vez que estabelece uma relação horizontal entre elas, contribuindo para que questionem e discutam suas práticas de cidadãos.

After the data had been collected, they were then analyzed using the theory of Miles et al, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The study concluded as follows: first, parents� level of education had an implication on the lack of parental motivation in Tanjung Alam Village. It happened because there were still many parents who did not really understand the educational process. Second, the habit of playing games by teenagers in Tanjung Alam Village became the implication of the lack of parents� knowledge as regards technological development and the negative impact of playing online games so that parents did not realize that this habit had an impact on the lack of learning activities at home.Keywords: Parental education, learning motivation, online games

A Comparison of Buprenorphine, Sustained release Buprenorphine, and High concentration Buprenorphine in Male New Zealand White Rabbits
Authors: Andrews David D , Fajt Virginia R , Baker Kate C , Blair Robert V , Jones Sean H , Dobek Georgina L
Published: July 2020

Pain management in rabbits can be difficult because they are adept at hiding pain and can be stressed by handling and restraint for injection. The use of opioid analgesics with prolonged durations of activity could alleviate pain, but associated adverse effects including gastrointestinal
ileus, inappetence, and tissue reactions have been reported. In this study, we compared gross tissue reactions at the site of injection, food consumption, and fecal production after single injections of buprenorphine HCl (Bup; n = 7), sustained-release buprenorphine (BupSR; n
= 8), and high-concentration buprenorphine (BupHC; n = 7) during the first 3 d after minor survival surgery. We also measured plasma concentrations of the parent drug, buprenorphine, and 3 metabolites (buprenorphine-3-glucuronide (B3G), norbuprenorphine-3β-glucuronide (N3G), and
norbuprenorphine (NB)). Plasma levels of buprenorphine remained above the theoretical minimal analgesic concentration for 4 h for Bup and 42 h for BupHC. For BupSR, plasma levels of buprenorphine remained above the theoretical minimal analgesic concentration for approximately 77 h, starting
15 h after administration. For all 3 formulations, N3G was the most prominent metabolite in the blood. No injection site reactions were visible grossly in any rabbit. Relative to baseline measures and compared with controls (n = 8), food consumption was suppressed on days 1 through
3 in rabbits that received BupSR and on days 2 through 3 in those given BupHC. Feces production on day 3 was reduced to a greater extent in BupSR rabbits than control animals. Two rabbits in the BupHC group exhibited neurologic signs after drug administration. These adverse effects should
be considered when choosing a long-lasting buprenorphine formulation to manage pain in rabbits.

The International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM) develops condition-specific Standard Sets of outcomes to be measured in clinical practice for value-based healthcare evaluation. Standard Sets are developed by different working groups, which is inefficient and may lead to inconsistencies in selected PROs and PROMs. This study aimed to identify common PROs across ICHOM Standard Sets and examined to what extend these PROs can be measured with a generic set of PROMs: the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®).All PROs and recommended PROMs were extracted from all available ICHOM Standard Sets. Similar PROs were categorized into unique PRO concepts. Subsequently, it was examined which of these PRO concepts can be measured with PROMIS.A total of 216 PROs were identified in 28 ICHOM Standard Sets and 96 PROMs are recommended for measuring these PROs. Inconsistencies were found in selected PROs, terminology used, and recommended PROMs. The 216 PROs could be categorized into 21 unique PRO concepts. More than half (16/21) of these PRO concepts (covering 75% of the PROs and 79% of the PROMs) can be measured with a PROMIS measure.Considerable overlap was found in PROs across ICHOM Standard Sets, and large differences in terminology used and PROMs recommended, even for the same PROs. Inconsistencies in selected PROs and PROMs across Standard Sets questions the validity of the Standard Sets. We recommend a more universal and standardized approach to the selection of PRO and PROM, using PROMIS.

Physical activity (PA) is considered essential to overall health yet it is consistently reported that children are failing to meet the recommended levels. Due to the bidirectional relationship between affective states and PA, affective responses are a potential predictor to long term engagement. Since late March 2020 the UK government enforced ‘lockdown’ measures to help control the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19); however, this has impacted children’s PA. Using online resources at home to support PA is now common. The primary aim of this research was to investigate the use of the Change4Life 10-minute Shake Ups to support PA by examining the effects of Disney branding upon children’s (n=32) post activity affective responses and perceived exertion. The secondary was to investigate the effect of the lockdown on PA habits. Children had similar positive affective responses and perceived effort to activities; however, branding was considered to be a key contributing factor based upon qualitative feedback from parents. Children’s PA levels dropped slightly since ‘lockdown’ was imposed; though online resources have been utilised to support PA. The use of immersive elements such as characters and narrative in PA sessions, as well as utilising online resources during ‘lockdown’ appear potentially promising for future research.

Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui Bagaimana metode pembuktian al-qasamah terhadap kasus pembuktian pembunuhan, apakah pembuktian al qasamah ini dapat menjadi alat atau bukti untuk pembuktian hukum ketika tidak diketahuhi pelakunya. Misalnya dalam kasus pidana pembunuhan yang tidak adanya saksi dan tidak diketahui pelakunya. Penelitian ini merujuk pada metode analisis dekstriftif yang berasal dari sumber sumber Hukum Pidana Islam., Meski metode pembuktian Al qasamah tersebut berasal dari zaman jahiliyah pra islam. Islam mengakui metode pembuktian al-qasamah adalah dalam rangka menjaga, melindungi, dan menghargai jiwa manusia. Maka dari itu metode Al qasamah ini dapat menjadi alat untuk membuktikan kebenaran sehingga para pelaku pembunuhan dapat diketahuhi dan para korban tidak teraibaikan hak yang telah dirampas begitu saja.

Wireless Sensor nodes connect the physical world to the digital world using smart, tiny and self configured stand alone devices. These small devices offer pack of brilliant opportunities to the digital world by capturing and revealing real time events which later used as data cloud in numerous applications. With impressive improvements in protocols, node level programming, simulation platforms and middleware developments sensor nodes have become promising options in the development of smart cities, gas and chemical industry, precision agriculture etc. However, these industrial application demands more lifetime and faster-secure data transmissions. In many applications it is recorded that with increase in network size LEACH routing protocol functioning degenerate. Further, designing of a promising routing protocol that can maintain less energy consumption during data gathering and propagation leads to use of variety of approaches. This work is based on the abstraction of equal distribution of energy among nodes with scalability. Experimental results show commendable improvement in network lifespan with residual energy of nodes to last for longer period. Throughput is also monitored considering scalability
"Lazy, lazy teachers": Teachers’ perceptions of how their profession is valued by society, policymakers, and the media during COVID-19
Authors: Asbury Kathryn , Kim Lisa E.
Published: July 2020

School closures during COVID-19 have led to close and very public scrutiny of how teachers have approached remote education. We know that teachers’ perceptions of how their profession is valued are associated with morale and retention as well as student attainment. The current study, therefore, examined how teachers’ perceptions of how others value their profession have been affected by the coronavirus pandemic.Twenty-four teachers from English state schools were interviewed in June 2020, representing mainstream primary and secondary schools and a wide range of years of experience. A reflective thematic analysis of the interview data was conducted.Four themes were identified: (1) heroes or villains?; (2) key workers or not?; (3) voiceless and disrespected; and (4) appreciated locally. Teachers reported discomfort and distress about media reports that asked them to be heroes and criticized them as villains when they questioned the safety of staff and students returning to school buildings. They resented the negative way in which their profession has been portrayed by the media, and the ramifications for public opinion. Teachers were also angry and frustrated by what they perceived as the government’s refusal to consult with them as a profession, and their failure to communicate effectively. However, teachers also reported feeling more valued than ever by their students’ parents. Findings are discussed in terms of how to improve the situation during COVID-19 and recommendations for the future.
At Whose Expense? System Justification and the Appreciation of Stereotypical Humor Targeting High vs. Low Status Groups
Authors: Baltiansky Dean , Craig Maureen A. , Jost John
Published: July 2020

Many popular comedians tell complicated jokes that involve multiple levels of interpretation. The same joke may be perceived as criticizing or reinforcing the societal status quo, depending on perceivers’ assumptions about the target of the punchline (e.g., whether the joke is at the expense of high- or low-status groups). We focused on how such jokes are experienced by listeners who are psychologically prone to justifying (versus challenging) the status quo. In a sample of Mechanical Turk workers (N = 179), we explored whether individual differences in system justification would be associated with the appreciation of group-based (stereotypical) humor, depending on the perceived target of the joke. As hypothesized, high system-justifiers found jokes targeting low-status groups (e.g., women, poor people, racial/ethnic minorities) to be funnier than low system-justifiers did. In some cases, low system-justifiers found jokes targeting high-status groups (rich people, European Americans) to be funnier than high system-justifiers did. These results expand upon previous demonstrations that humor appreciation is linked to relatively stable ideological dispositions and suggest that different individuals may perceive complex group-based humor in divergent ways.

PURPOSE Willingness of adults at high-risk of COVID-19 to receive a COVID-19 vaccine is unknown. There are key disparities in the risk and outcomes from COVID-19 by socio-demographic factors, including age, sex, level of deprivation, and ethnicity. A COVID-19 vaccination programme could inadvertently exacerbate these inequalities if it is not readily received by different population groups. In this UK-wide cross-sectional survey, we examined willingness to receive a COVID-19 vaccine in the general population and evaluated socio-demographic and clinical factors associated with willingness.METHODS Between April and June 2020, individuals in the general population were invited to complete an online survey; 2568 provided informed consent. Willingness to receive a COVID-19 vaccine was reported by 2152 (83.8%).RESULTS In total, 76.9% (1654/2152) reported being willing to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. One in five individuals at increased risk of COVID-19, as defined by UK government guidelines, were unwilling to receive a COVID-19 vaccine (119/589; 20.2%). Individuals from white ethnic group were more likely to be willing to receive a COVID-19 vaccine compared with those from BAME groups (79.9% vs. 55.9%, respectively), OR 2.84, 96% CI = 1.93 – 4.18, p ≤ 0.001. Willingness did not vary among adults at increased risk of COVID-19 compared with those not at increased risk.CONCLUSION A significant proportion of individuals in the general population are unwilling to receive a COVID-19 vaccine, including those at increased risk of COVID-19 morbidity and mortality. There are socio-demographic differences in willingness, especially by ethnic group. Success of a vaccination programme for COVID-19 depends not only on the efficacy of the vaccine but also on its uptake. Research is urgently needed to establish the most effective policy and communications to encourage maximal uptake of the vaccination.
Immediate ambiguity resolution in speech perception based on prior acoustic experience
Authors: Gwilliams Laura , Wallisch Pascal
Published: July 2020

Speech perception relies on the rapid resolution of uncertainty. Here we explore whether auditory experiences contribute to this process of ambiguity resolution. ~8000 participants were surveyed online for their (i) subjective percept of a speech stimulus with ambiguous formant allocation; (ii) demographic profile and auditory experiences. Both linguistic and non-linguistic auditory experiences significantly predict speech perception. Listeners were more likely to perceive the ambiguous stimulus in accordance with their own name, and were biased towards lower formant allocation as a function of being exposed to lower auditory frequencies in their environment. Overall, our results show that the subjective interpretation of an ambiguous stimulus in the auditory domain is determined by prior acoustic exposure, suggesting the operation of an exposure-dependent mechanism impacting sensitivity that resolves ambiguity in speech perception.
