AbstractObjectivesTo systematically review existing policies and research evidence on the effectiveness of dementia education and training for health and social care students.MethodsWe searched electronic databases for primary research studies (published between 2015-2024), evaluating dementia training for health and social care students. We assessed risk of bias using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool, prioritising studies scoring 4+ (higher quality) that reported significant findings on primary outcomes from controlled intervention trials. We reported outcomes using Kirkpatrick’s framework. We consulted professional stakeholders in focus group regarding how findings might inform practice.Results17/35 included studies were rated 4+ on the MMAT; only one met our criteria for priority evidence. An experiential programme for medical students, “Time for Dementia”, which combined skill-learning and reflective sessions with visits to people with dementia, was found to improve Kirkpatrick Level 2 (learning) outcomes, attitudes and knowledge over two years of participation; this was supported from findings from qualitative studies. Asynchronous, self-directed learning did not improve learning outcomes, relative to standard training. Though almost all training programmes sought to learn from lived experience, none consulted patients regarding the impact of the training on students’ skills and practice. Nine focus group attendees agreed that the evidence reflected their experiences that consistent support, combined with skills-based and reflective sessions, optimised student learning from initial patient-focused encounters.ConclusionsEffective interventions increased confidence and enjoyment of dementia care encounters, and increased interest in careers in dementia specialties. Mandating evidence-based dementia skills programmes across specialties could ensure that students learn the skills and competencies required to be part of an effective future workforce and drive important improvements in care quality. Evidence based approaches to enhancing dementia education in training could include experiential learning modules in early years of medical school training and allied health and care professional training, using evidence-based approaches to teach communication skills and other essential dementia care skills within clinical placements, and providing dedicated supervision to support their implementation. Future research could usefully consider patient perspectives in determining the impact of educational programmes.

Published: January 2025

PurposeIn a reflection of individuals’ interest in maintaining a healthy lifestyle, nutraceutical restaurants, which provide health benefits, have emerged on the market. However, little is known about the underlying factors and mechanisms of the consumption of nutraceutical foods. Therefore, grounded in an extended cognitive–affective–conative model, this study examines the role of dining motivations and restaurant attributes in explaining an integrated model that focuses on customers’ loyalty formation process.Design/methodology/approachData were collected from 893 Chinese customers who had recently dined at traditional Chinese medicine restaurants. Using partial least squares structural equation modeling, this study examined the structural relationships among dining motivations, restaurant attributes, customers’ perceived benefits, overall satisfaction, place attachment and revisit intentions.FindingsThe results of a confirmatory factor analysis revealed that two main motivations (i.e. health and traditional culture) and five restaurant attributes (i.e. food, service staff food recommendation, service staff service quality, furniture and tableware and atmosphere) are stimuli that influence customers’ perceived benefits. This study also revealed that four types of perceived benefits (functional, emotional, social and epistemic) significantly affect overall satisfaction and place attachment, which determine revisit intentions.Research limitations/implicationsThe findings of this study help identify not only important dining motivations and restaurant attributes but also their roles in loyalty formation with respect to traditional Chinese medicine restaurants. Thus, the results contribute to an improved understanding of how to satisfy customers’ dining motivations and efficiently manage restaurant attributes to strengthen customer loyalty.Originality/valueThis study is among the first to simultaneously examine the effects of customer motivation and restaurant attributes and to explain how they affect customer loyalty behaviors at traditional Chinese medicine restaurants.
A strange angel: William Norman Illingworth [1902–1980] and Sangreal School – towards a history of conservative alternative schools in 20th-century Britain
Authors: Limond David 
Published: January 2025

PurposeThis work concerns William Norman Illingworth [1902–1980]. Disillusioned with teaching in conventional schools and inspired by Rudolf Steiner [1861–1925] he founded Sangreal School, in 1947, and operated this until the early 1970s. Sangreal was what I describe as a “conservative alternative school”, employing methods and pursuing goals not found in most British schools of the period but, unlike avowedly progressive establishments, guided by socially conservative principles. The purposes of the work are both to rescue his/Sangreal’s story from obscurity and to encourage research to establish if other such schools have existed and, if so, to describe and analyse them in an effort to give the category conservative alternative school the recognition it properly deserves.Design/methodology/approachThe method is a combination of life history/biography and case study of a specific school.FindingsThe story is interesting in its own terms and points to the existence of a hitherto unnoticed category in history of education.Research limitations/implicationsThis work may lead to the proper recognition of a neglected category.Originality/valueThis work deals with a school hitherto unknown to most people and may lead to the recognition of a new category.

WHO CAN AFFORD TO BE HUMAN? Struggling for Affordable Housing in East London
Authors: Adscheid Toni 
Published: January 2025

AbstractIn this article I expand contemporary political‐economic analyses of housing affordability. Specifically, I engage with urban geography research around biopolitical logics within processes of housing financialization and contribute to debates of ‘making live’ and ‘letting die’ by mobilizing Sylvia Wynter's anticolonial scholarship to emphasize alternative narrations of human life emerging alongside (bio)political‐economic rationales that enable the modern human, Man. In this study, which centres on three years of ethnographic research with the Focus E15 housing campaign in the East London borough of Newham, I stress the human as field of political struggle within debates around housing affordability. Situating my research in the struggle of Focus E15 campaigners against the inhuman conditions of Newham's temporary accommodation residents, I reveal how debates around housing affordability within Newham's urban development become constituted through narratives of mixed/balanced communities, the shifting of responsibilities and coproduction efforts. I argue that these debates rely on Man's narrative of homo oeconomicus, which legitimizes the expulsion of temporary accommodation residents from Newham. In contrast, I highlight how the Focus E15 Campaign imagines affordability beyond political‐economic rationales, thus spatializing an alternative way of being human, homo narrans. Consequently, I foreground the human as contested grammar within urban geography research on housing affordability to move beyond Man's geographies of managed life and death.
Honey, What's for Dinner? Dietary Overlap and Size Dimorphism Between Female and Male Joro Spiders (Trichonephila clavata)

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTSelection on body size tends to favor larger males that outcompete smaller males to mate with females, and larger, more fecund females. For many web‐building spiders in the Nephilidae family, reproductive success increases with body size, which in turn, is related to diet. The diet of female spiders may overlap with males who share her web, but diet patterns could depend on size if certain males have better access to prey ensnared in the web. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that Joro spider (Trichonephila clavata) dietary patterns are sex‐specific and related to body size and condition. We combined morphometric size analysis with molecular gut content analysis via DNA metabarcoding and high‐throughput sequencing to characterize male and female Joro spider diets from 60 webs at 25 locations. Female Joro spiders were larger than males and their diets were more diverse. While male Joro spiders consumed the same prey taxa as females, more than 50 additional taxa were detected in female diets, which led to significant dissimilarity in prey composition between sexes. As male body size increased, diet diversity and body condition decreased, suggesting a potential trade‐off between time spent foraging versus active defense of their position on the web. Female and male spiders captured from the same web shared prey taxa. However, the proportion of prey overlap was not related to male size. Combined, Joro spiders show sex‐specific dietary patterns, and males appear to have less access to the diverse food captured in female webs.

AbstractPhysical and cognitive interventions are deemed the primary methods of improving cognitive functioning in healthy older adults. However, the effectiveness of these interventions is still debated. This systematic review, synthesised findings from the literature on four different types of interventions: physical activities, cognitive training, cognitive stimulation and a combined intervention. We searched six databases for each intervention category. Findings demonstrated that 65% of the studies across all intervention groups reported improvement in the experimental group following the intervention. Furthermore, memory, executive and global cognitive functions were the most reported improvements post‐intervention. Additionally, participants with higher education benefited more from cognitive training (an intervention that targets a specific cognitive domain), while those with lower education gained more following cognitive stimulation (an intervention that targets general domains). Lastly, in sub‐types of physical activity, cognitive stimulation and combined category, longer durations (more than 20 sessions) were associated with significant cognitive improvements. Conversely, in cognitive training, having less than 20 sessions led to significant results. Findings indicated an interaction of education and intervention duration with significant outcomes post‐intervention. In conclusion, this review demonstrated the importance of intervention type, duration and education in understanding cognitive improvement post‐intervention.

AbstractObjectivesBehaviour change interventions offered opportunistically by healthcare professionals can support patient health behaviour change. The Making Every Contact Count (MECC) programme in Ireland is a national programme to support healthcare professionals to use brief behavioural interventions. The aim of this study was to gain an in‐depth understanding of the enablers of, and barriers to, embedding MECC across the healthcare system.DesignA qualitative interview study.MethodsWe conducted individual semi‐structured interviews to understand barriers and enablers to MECC implementation. Our sample was 36 participants (11 health promotion and improvement officers, 9 nurses, 15 allied health professionals and 1 training instructor) who have a direct role in either supporting or delivering brief interventions to patients. Data were analysed using a Framework Analysis approach guided by the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF).ResultsEight theoretical domains influenced MECC implementation: environmental context and resources, intentions/goals, beliefs about the consequences of MECC delivery, knowledge, healthcare professionals' beliefs about their capability to deliver MECC interventions, social and professional role and identity, and reinforcement and skills. Environmental context and resources was the most strongly endorsed domain with key influencing factors including consultation type/setting, making MECC a routine part of clinical practice, a multi‐professional approach, access to/visibility of resources/services, management support/expectations, impacts of the COVID‐19 pandemic, and the salience of the MECC programme and the strategic fit of MECC with other health service initiatives.ConclusionsWhile individual factors influence national implementation of behaviour change interventions, creating enabling environments for healthcare staff is crucial for widespread adoption across healthcare systems.
Language about gender/sex should be used intentionally and flexibly
Authors: Morgenroth Thekla 
Published: January 2025

AbstractIn their paper, ‘Conceptualizing transgender experiences in psychology: Do we have a ‘true’ gender?’ Jackson and Bussey (British Journal of Psychology, 115, 723) critique the idea of having a ‘true’ gender and propose that the term ‘transgender experience’ may be more appropriate than ‘transgender identity’. In this commentary, I reflect on the usefulness of the terms transgender identity and transgender experience and argue that both hold value and can contribute to a more nuanced discussion of gender/sex. I use the discussion of these two terms as a springboard to make a broader point: As researchers, we should use language about gender/sex flexibly and intentionally. As psychologists, we are trained to use clear operationalizations for the constructs we study, yet it is often unclear whether authors refer to biological sex, gender identity, social perception, or socialization when they speak of ‘women’ and ‘men’. I encourage researchers to be more mindful in their language use and to engage with the nuanced terms that gender scholars (including Jackson and Bussey) have put forward when discussing gender/sex – both in the context of transgender identities and experiences and when discussing cisgender identities and experiences.

Published: January 2025

AbstractRight‐wing authoritarianism (RWA) refers to an adherence to conventional values and authorities with the power to penalize groups that are perceived to challenge the cohesion of ingroup norms. Correspondingly, RWA has repeatedly been linked to negative perceptions of minoritized groups, such as refugees or religious minorities. To investigate whether and how sociocultural factors add to and moderate how RWA influences perceptions that minoritized groups pose a threat (i.e. threat perceptions), we examined (a) the value of RWA, religiosity and perceived societal marginalization in predicting these threat perceptions across countries, (b) potential moderating effects of individual‐ and country‐level religiosity and marginalization on the RWA‐threat link and (c) the robustness of cross‐sectional findings when daily threat perceptions were assessed longitudinally. We used cross‐sectional survey data from Germany N = 1896; Study (1) and Europe N = 3227; Study (2) and global cross‐sectional and longitudinal daily diary data N = 3154 individuals; N >52,447 assessments; N = 41 countries; Study (3). Our studies point to the significance of contextual conditions and the generalizability of cross‐sectional findings to day‐to‐day assessments of threat perceptions.

Published: January 2025

AbstractBackground and purposeAutophagy–lysosomal pathway dysfunction leads to postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Dexmedetomidine (Dex) improves POCD, and we probed the effects of Dex on autophagy–lysosomal pathway dysfunction in a POCD model.Experimental approachA POCD mouse model was established and intraperitoneally injected with Dex. Cognitive function was evaluated by Morris water maze/open field test/novel object recognition assay. Levels of neurotransmitters/inflammatory cytokines in hippocampus, and NLRP3/ASC/Cleaved Caspase‐1 proteins were determined by ELISA/Western blot. NLRP3 inflammasome‐mediated microglial activation/astrocyte A1 differentiation in the hippocampal CA1 region were assessed by immunofluorescence assay. BV‐2 cells were treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Dex and/or the NLRP3 inflammasome activator Nigericin, and transfected with si‐TFEB for co‐culture with primary reactive astrocytes (RAs) to verify the function of Dex in vitro.Key ResultsDex alleviated cognitive dysfunction in POCD mice and repressed NLRP3 inflammasome‐mediated microglial activation and astrocyte A1 differentiation. NLRP3 inflammasome activation partially reversed the protective effect of Dex on the POCD condition. In vitro experiments verified the inhibitory properties of Dex on microglial activation and astrocyte A1 differentiation. Dex induces TFEB nuclear translocation, microglial autophagy and lysosomal biogenesis. By activating the autophagy–lysosome pathway, Dex regulated NLRP3 inflammasome‐mediated microglial activation, inhibited astrocyte A1 differentiation and alleviated POCD in vivo.Conclusion and implicationsDex regulates NLRP3 inflammasome‐mediated hippocampal microglial activation by promoting TFEB nuclear translocation and activating the autophagy–lysosome pathway and inhibits astrocyte A1 differentiation, thereby alleviating POCD.

ABSTRACTObjectivesEndoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress‐induced protein homeostasis perturbation is a core pathological element in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. This study aims to clarify the unique role played by C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) as a biomarker of the unfolded protein response (UPR) in the etiology of chronic pain and related cognitive impairments following chronic constrictive nerve injury (CCI).MethodsThe memory capability following CCI was assessed utilizing the Morris water maze (MWM) and fear conditioning test (FCT). Activation of the UPR was quantified by assessing levels of CHOP and key ER stress sensors. The terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) dUTP nick‐end labeling (TUNEL) assay and the levels of cleaved caspase‐3 were utilized to assess apoptosis level. Synaptic plasticity was assessed via a modified Golgi‐Cox staining method, and long‐term potentiation (LTP) measurements were taken. Neuronal activity was determined by immunofluorescence and fiber photometry. Knockdown of CHOP and alleviation of ER stress were selectively induced by LV‐Ddit3‐shRNAs and the chemical chaperone 4‐phenylbutyric acid (4‐PBA), respectively.ResultsMice subjected to CCI displayed enduring pain and cognitive impairments evident on Days 21–28 post‐surgery. Following CCI, changes in the dorsal CA1 (dCA1) manifested as ER dilation, upregulation of CHOP and upstream signaling molecules, reduced dendritic spine density, and PSD95 levels, and impaired LTP. Additionally, the co‐localization of CaMKIIα/c‐Fos and CaMKIIαdCA1‐mediated calcium signaling was significantly reduced, while the activation of CaMKIIα was found to mitigate cognitive impairments in CCI mice. Selective knockdown of CHOP enhanced synaptic plasticity and CaMKIIα neuron activity, while 4‐PBA treatment alleviated ER stress, synergistically improving cognitive deficits associated with chronic pain.ConclusionCCI‐induced CHOP upregulation impairs dCA1 synaptic plasticity and neuronal activity, leading to chronic pain‐related cognitive deficits.
