description: © The Author(s) 2019. Since being developed as a research methodology in the 1960s, grounded theory (GT) has grown in popularity. In spite of its prevalence, considerable confusion surrounds GT, particularly in respect of the essential methods that characterize this approach to research. Misinformation is evident in the literature around issues such as the various approaches to GT, how long the process takes, the role of literature and preconceptions, generating and using data and strategies to produce theory. This article examines the most frequently asked questions about GT in an effort to demystify its purpose and use. Understanding the fundamental concepts of GT is critical to the correct use and application of GT methods and the ultimate production of theory that is grounded in data. More significantly, this understanding can prevent researchers encountering common pitfalls that can impede the process and impact the products of research.

description: © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Australia, Ltd The aim of this integrative review was to update a mixed method systematic review by Skirton, O'Connor, and Humphreys (2012) that reported on nurses’ levels of competence in using genetics in clinical practice. Three electronic databases were searched using selected key words. Research studies published in English between January 2011 and September 2017 reporting levels of nurse competence in genetics or genomics were eligible for inclusion. The selected studies were subjected to thematic analysis. Three main themes were identified: (i) genomic knowledge and utilization, (ii) perceived relevance to practice, and (iii) genomic education. While the reviewed papers produced varied findings, many nurses were shown to have poor genomic knowledge and/or competency, and yet there was a consensus that most nurses believe genomics is important to their practice. The present review indicated that in the past 5 years nurses have made minimal progress toward achieving the core genomic competencies appropriate for clinical practice.

description: A highly efficient and scalable process for the synthesis of novoldiamine and hydroxynovaldiamine is accomplished from levulinic acid, which is easily accessible from the natural feedstock. These diamines are used as the key intermediates for the synthesis of chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine and mepacrine. The key steps involved in this process are the coupling of levulinic acid with secondary amine assisted by 1, 1’-carbonyldiimidazole and one-pot reduction of oxime-amide functional groups to get the corresponding diamine.

description: © La Trobe University 2017. Understanding patient experience is necessary to advance the patient-centred approach to health service delivery. Australia's primary healthcare model, the 'Health Care Home', is based on the 'Patient-Centered Medical Home' (PCMH) model developed in the United States. Both these models aim to improve patient experience; however, the majority of existing PCMH model evaluations have focussed on funding, management and quality assurance measures. This review investigated the scope of evidence reported by adult patients using a PCMH. Using a systematic framework, the review identified 39 studies, sourced from 33 individual datasets, which used both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Patient experience was reported for model attributes, including the patient-physician and patient-practice relationships; care-coordination; access to care; and, patient engagement, goal setting and shared decision-making. Results were mixed, with the patient experience improving under the PCMH model for some attributes, and some studies indicating no difference in patient experience following PCMH implementation. The scope and quality of existing evidence does not demonstrate improvement in adult patient experience when using the PCMH. Better measures to evaluate patient experience in the Australian Health Care Home model are required.

description: El objetivo de este artículo es reflexionar acerca del proceso creativo de Respiración artificial (1980), primera novela del escritor argentino Ricardo Piglia (1940-2017). En Los diarios de Emilio Renzi, publicados entre 2015 y 2017, Piglia parece haber profundizado el proyecto borgeano de lo literario como indisociable de la teoría y la crítica. La publicación coordinada por Piglia de partes seleccionadas de sus diarios sacó a la luz su laboratorio creativo. Los diarios de Emilio Renzi abrieron nuevas perspectivas de lectura crítica para toda la producción de Piglia. Es como si la “máquina polifacética” de Piglia encontrara, por fin, su locomotora. Tomando como punto de partida las reflexiones desarrollada en los diarios, este trabajo objetiva reflexionar acerca de las relaciones entre los primeros textos críticos publicados por Piglia y sus relaciones con Respiración artificial (1980), su primera novela. Esta investigación tiene por base el campo teórico y metodológico de la crítica genética.

description: Genus Riccardia Gray   REMARKS
 About 100 species worldwide (Söderström et al. 2016). Based on the results of species delimitation analysis (Reeb et al. 2018), 12 species are recognized in Africa. Eleven of these occur in eastern Africa (Fig. 1) and three are new to science: R. gasparii sp. nov., R. martinii sp. nov. and R. vohimanensis sp. nov. In addition, Riccardia multifida, a species known from South Africa, may be expected to occur in eastern Africa and is therefore included in this treatment. The genus Riccardia is characterized by the 1-3-pinnately or palmately branched thalli with a narrow, 0.3-1.5(-2) mm wide axis and short sexual branches. The archegonia and antheridia are developed in two straight rows on separate branches. The genus is closely related to Aneura and Afroriccardia but the latter two genera have broader, less branched axes (more than 2 mm wide). In early literature, Riccardia was part of Aneura (e.g. Stephani 1898-1924).

description: © 2017 Elsevier Ltd Role modelling by experienced nurses, including nurse academics, is a key factor in the process of preparing undergraduate nursing students for practice, and may contribute to longevity in the workforce. A grounded theory study was undertaken to investigate the phenomenon of nurse academics' role modelling for undergraduate students. The study sought to answer the research question: how do nurse academics role model positive professional behaviours for undergraduate students? The aims of this study were to: theorise a process of nurse academic role modelling for undergraduate students; describe the elements that support positive role modelling by nurse academics; and explain the factors that influence the implementation of academic role modelling. The study sample included five second year nursing students and sixteen nurse academics from Australia and the United Kingdom. Data was collected from observation, focus groups and individual interviews. This study found that in order for nurse academics to role model professional behaviours for nursing students, they must reconcile their own professional identity. This paper introduces the theory of reconciling professional identity and discusses the three categories that comprise the theory, creating a context for learning, creating a context for authentic rehearsal and mirroring identity.

description: © 2017 The Author(s). Background: Male circumcision reduces the risk of female-to-male transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and is being explored for HIV prevention in Papua New Guinea (PNG). PNG has a concentrated HIV epidemic which is largely heterosexually transmitted. There are a diverse range of male circumcision and penile modification practices across PNG. Exploring the implications of male circumcision for women in PNG is important to inform evidence-based health policy that will result in positive, intended consequences. Methods: The transformational grounded theory study incorporated participatory action research and decolonizing methodologies. In Phase One, an existing data set from a male circumcision study of 861 male and 519 female participants was theoretically sampled and analyzed for women's understanding and experience of male circumcision. In Phase Two of the study, primary data were co-generated with 64 women in seven interpretive focus group discussions and 11 semi-structured interviews to develop a theoretical model of the processes used by women to manage the outcomes of male circumcision. In Phase Three participants assisted to refine the developing transformational grounded theory and identify actions required to improve health. Results: Many women know a lot about male circumcision and penile modification and the consequences for themselves, their families and communities. Their ability to act on this knowledge is determined by numerous social, cultural and economic factors. A transformational grounded theory was developed with connecting categories of: Women Know a Lot, Increasing Knowledge; Increasing Options; and Acting on Choices. Properties and dimensions of each category are represented in the model, along with the intervening condition of Safety. The condition of Safety contextualises the overarching lived realty for women in PNG, enables the inclusion of men in the transformational grounded theory model, and helps to explain relationships between men and women. The theory presents the core category as Power of Choice. Conclusions: This transformational grounded theory provides a means to explore how women experience male circumcision and penile modification in PNG, including for HIV prevention. Women who have had opportunities for education have a greater range of choices and an increased opportunity to act upon these choices. However, women can only exercise their power of choice in the context of safety. The concept of Peace drawn from the Social Determinants of Health is applied in order to extend the explanatory power of the transformational grounded theory. This study shows that women's ambivalence about male circumcision is often related to lack of safety, a consequence of gender inequality in PNG.

description: © 2017 The Author(s). Background: Better systems of care are required to address chronic disease in Indigenous people to ensure they can access all their care needs. Health research has produced evidence about effective models of care and chronic disease strategies to address Indigenous health, however the transfer of research findings into routine clinical practice has proven challenging. Complex interventions, such as those related to chronic disease, have many components that are often poorly implemented and hence rarely achieve implementation fidelity. Implementation fidelity is "the degree to which programs are implemented as intended by the program developer". Knowing if an intervention was implemented as planned is fundamental to knowing what has contributed to the success of an intervention. Methods: The aim of this study is to adapt the implementation fidelity framework developed by Keith et al. and apply it to the intervention implemented in phase 1 of the Getting Better at Chronic Care in North Queensland study. The objectives are to quantify the level of implementation fidelity achieved during phase 1 of the study, measure the association between implementation fidelity and health outcomes and to explore the features of the primary health care system that contributed to improved health outcomes. A convergent parallel mixed methods study design will be used to develop a process for assessing implementation fidelity. Information collected via a questionnaire and routine data generated during phase 1 of the study will be used to explain the context for the intervention in each site and develop an implementation fidelity score for each component of the intervention. A weighting will be applied to each component of the intervention to calculate the overall implementation score for each participating community. Statistical analysis will assess the level of association between implementation fidelity scores and health outcomes. Discussion: Health services research seeks to find solutions to social and technical problems to improve health outcomes. The development of a tool and methodology for assessing implementation fidelity in the Indigenous primary health care context will help address some of the barriers to the translation of research into practice.

Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2021

description: © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Aim: The aim of this study was to gain insight into the process of patient enablement in general practice nursing consultations. Background: Enhanced roles for general practice nurses may benefit patients through a range of mechanisms, one of which may be increasing patient enablement. In studies with general practitioners enhanced patient enablement has been associated with increases in self-efficacy and skill development. Design: This study used a constructivist grounded theory design. Methods: In-depth interviews were conducted with 16 general practice nurses and 23 patients from 21 general practices between September 2013 - March 2014. Data generation and analysis were conducted concurrently using constant comparative analysis and theoretical sampling focussing on the process and outcomes of patient enablement. Use of the storyline technique supported theoretical coding and integration of the data into a theoretical model. Findings: A clearly defined social process that fostered and optimised patient enablement was constructed. The theory of ‘developing enabling healthcare partnerships between nurses and patients in general practice’ incorporates three stages: triggering enabling healthcare partnerships, tailoring care and the manifestation of patient enablement. Patient enablement was evidenced through: 1. Patients’ understanding of their unique healthcare requirements informing their health seeking behaviours and choices; 2. Patients taking an increased lead in their partnership with a nurse and seeking choices in their care and 3. Patients getting health care that reflected their needs, preferences and goals. Conclusions: This theoretical model is in line with a patient-centred model of health care and is particularly suited to patients with chronic disease.

description: © 2017, Australian Nursing Federation. All rights reserved. Background Learning in the clinical setting is an essential component of nursing education. Two common models of clinical learning place students in facilities using either block or distributed approaches. Aim The aim of this study was to examine nursing students’ perceptions of the impact of block versus distributed model of clinical placement on their learning experience. Design The study employed a descriptive, exploratory approach. Focus groups and an individual interview were conducted with third-year undergraduate nursing students. Setting Students from four Australian universities took part in the study. Subjects The average age of the 22 student participants was 37.5 years and 91% were female. More than half (55%) studied full time. Results Thematic analysis of the data identified five overarching themes: We’re there to learn; Taking all that knowledge out and practising it; You actually feel a part of the team; Just prepare them for us coming; and It’s really individual. Conclusions It is clear that both block and distributed modes of placement have inherent advantages and disadvantages that might be magnified depending on the individual student’s circumstances. Sequencing, consistency and preparation must be considered when planning either mode of clinical placement to ensure the best possible experience for students. Most significantly, students need to feel as though they are part of the team while on placement to get the most out of the experience. These findings have implications for education providers planning the integration of clinical placement into the nursing curriculum.

description: © 2017, Inst. fur Klinische Psychologie und Gemeindepsychologie. All rights reserved. Over the last forty years, case study research has undergone substantial methodological development. This evolution has resulted in a pragmatic, flexible research approach, capable of providing comprehensive in-depth understanding of a diverse range of issues across a number of disciplines. Change and progress have stemmed from parallel influences of historical transformations in approaches to research and individual researcher’s preferences, perspectives, and interpretations of this design. Researchers who have contributed to the development of case study research come from diverse disciplines with different philosophical perspectives, resulting in a variety of definitions and approaches. For the researcher new to using case study, such variety can create a confusing platform for its application. In this article, we explore the evolution of case study research, discuss methodological variations, and summarize key elements with the aim of providing guidance on the available options for researchers wanting to use case study in their work.

description: L’objectif de cette recherche est d’évaluer les effets de l’entrepreneuriat féminin sur l’indicateur monétaire du développement humain au Tchad.

Les données de ce travail sont de source secondaire et appartiennent à la base des données de l’Institut National de la Statistique, des Etudes Economiques et Démographiques (INSEED), notamment les données de l’Enquête sur la Consommation des Ménages et le Secteur Informel au Tchad, troisième phase (ECOSIT- 3) de 2011. Elles ont été analysées grâce à la méthode d’appariement sur score de propension pour évaluer les effets de l’entrepreneuriat féminin sur l’indicateur monétaire du développement humain.

Les résultats montrent que la différence entre les dépenses totales de consommation des ménages dirigés par les femmes entrepreneures et celles des ménages dirigés par les femmes non entrepreneures est significative au seuil de 5%. Ce résultat permet de conclure que l'entrepreneuriat féminin a des effets sur l’indicateur monétaire du développement humain au Tchad.
Sex after 60? You've got to be joking! Senior sexuality in comedy film

description: © 2016 Representations of the sexuality of older people have been largely absent in mainstream films until recent times. Cinema as an art form has historically denied or ignored the fact that humans are sexual beings their whole lives. In this paper critical discourse analysis is used to examine four comedy films released between 1993 and 2012 that tackle the subject of ‘senior sexuality’. All four films are explicit in representing older people as sexual beings but, unlike films about young people's sexual activity, the details of sexual encounters are left to viewers' imaginations. Two of the films challenge the notion of a heteronormative old age.

description: © 2016 The Author(s). Background: A core objective of the Australian health system is to provide high quality, safe health care that meets the needs of all Australians. To achieve this, an adequate and effective workforce must support the delivery of care. With rapidly changing health care systems and consumer demographics, demand for care is increasing and retention of sufficient numbers of skilled staff is now a critical priority to meet current and future health care demands. Nurses are the largest cohort of professionals within the health workforce. Reducing the rates at which nurses leave the profession and supporting nurses to practice in their profession longer will have beneficial implications for the sustainability of a nursing workforce and, ultimately, to patient outcomes. The aim of the study was to describe and explain early career registered nurses' (ECRNs) experiences and support requirements during the first five years of practice for the purposes of identifying strategies that would support greater retention of ECRNs. Methods: A single case study design focused on early career registered nurses (ECRNs) working in a hospital and health service in northern Australia. The research team adopted Djukic et al's definition of ECRNs as "RNs who have practiced for less than 5 years". Data was collected via three individual interviews and two focus groups. Thirty-five ECRNs participated in the study. Results: Qualitative analysis of data generated during interviews and focus groups, identified the key themes of receiving career advice and choice or no choice. Analysis of study data in the context of the broader literature resulted in the researchers identifying six areas of focus for ECRN retention: 1) well-planned, supported and structured transition periods; 2) consideration of rotation through different areas with a six month minimum for skills development; 3) empowering decision making; 4) placement opportunities and choice in decisions of where to work; 5) career advice and support that considers ECRNs' personalities and skills; and 6) encouragement to reflect on career choices. Conclusions: Reducing turnover and improving retention relies on understanding the factors that influence nurses' decisions to leave or remain within an organisation and the profession. Ensuring nurses in the current workforce remain engaged and productive, rather than leave the profession, is reliant on addressing factors that cause attrition and implementing strategies that strengthen retention rates and workforce sustainability.

Behavioral formation: multi-agent algorithmic design strategies

description: Emergence and the behavior of complex systems are increasingly defining the contemporary understanding of processes as diverse as natural phenomena, social structures and the existence of consciousness. An interest in this self-organising behavior is explored in my architectural work through the development of a computational, generative design approach. The focus of this thesis is the interaction of emergent processes of formation and architectural design intention: a conceptualisation that has emerged through a process of reflecting on my practice of architecture.

This PhD reflects on the projects, processes, techniques and concepts that have come to shape and define my practice. The body of work examined here has been developed through Kokkugia (an experimental research collaboration with Robert Stuart-Smith) and my architecture practice, Studio Roland Snooks. Through this process of reflection, I have extracted, articulated and developed a series of strategies, ideas and sensibilities that have been redeployed in subsequent projects, and point to future directions in this work.

This body of work is positioned within an emerging group of architects who are engaging with complex systems, generative design strategies and algorithmic techniques. The original contribution this design research makes within this milieu lies in my focus and experimentation with a process of embedding architectural design intention within generative algorithms. Design intention is recast as behaviors – discrete, micro-scale architectural decisions, relationships or procedures – that are encoded within multi-agent algorithms. It is the local interaction of these agents that self-organises architectural design intention at the macro-level. An iterative design process has been established that negotiates between this emergent process, subjective evaluation and direct design decisions. The multi-agent algorithms developed in this design research draw on the logic of swarm intelligence (a branch of complexity theory), which describes the emergent, collective behavior that can be found in phenomena such as schools of fish, flocks of birds, social insects and slime mould.

The implications of working through these highly iterative, non-linear, computational design processes are manifest as a compression of tectonic hierarchies and a blurring of geometric types. This behavioral design process negotiates between various architectural design intentions through the geometry of architecture, creating a synthetic but differentiated assemblage, and uncoupling geometric elements from architectural roles. The architectural projects that we coax out of these processes exhibit emergent qualities – strange, intricate characteristics; complex order; and intensive capacities to affect.

description: My interest in painting animals led me to explore human–animal relations through contemporary art. By examining the role of the domesticated animal in the broad history of the human–animal relationship and the history of the representation of animals in Western art, I see domestication of animals as expressions of human culture. I explore my own perspective on our common bonds, of compassion and co-existence with pets through my studio research and invite viewers to interact with my two- and three- dimensional paintings.

description: Die Vermittlung und Förderung der Lesefähigkeit und der Kompetenz Medien(-texte) und deren Wirkung adäquat zu rezipieren stellen einen zentralen Bestandteil des Deutschunterrichts dar und sind als solche in Lehrplan und Bildungsstandards verankert. Eine Möglichkeit, beiden Tätigkeiten übergreifend und integriert nachzukommen, stellt das Zeitunglesen dar. Diese Diplomarbeit hatte die Zielsetzung die gegenwärtige Bedeutung von Zeitungen im Unterricht näher zu untersuchen. Der Verein Zeitung in der Schule (ZiS) bietet LehrerInnen und SchülerInnen als unterstützende Maßnahme zur Integration von Zeitungen und Zeitungsartikeln mehrere Materialien und Workshops an, u.a. einen sechsmal im Jahr erscheinenden Unterrichtsbehelf (ZiS aktuell), in dem eine Reihe von didaktisierten und aktuellen Zeitungsartikel aufbereitet sind und welcher den KontaktlehrerInnen unentgeltlich zugesandt wird. Einerseits wurde anhand acht ExpertInneninterviews erfasst, wie sich der Umgang mit Zeitungen im Unterricht beschreiben lässt, andererseits die Beurteilung des Unterrichtsmaterials ZiS aktuell seitens der KontaktlehrerInnen erhoben. Als Auswertungsmethode diente die qualitative Inhaltsanalyse nach Mayring. Im Hinblick auf Gebrauch und Einsatz von Zeitungen zeigten sich signifikante Differenzen zwischen den einzelnen Unterrichtsfächern; die Ergebnisse deuten jedoch an, dass sowohl das Zeitunglesen als auch das Lesen per se – entgegen dem Grundsatzerlass Leseerziehung – noch als (alleinige) Aufgaben des Deutschunterrichts angesehen werden. Alle KontaktlehrerInnen setzen in ihrem Unterricht Zeitungen und Zeitungsartikel ein – sechs der acht Befragten verwenden ZiS aktuell unterstützend – wobei im Hinblick auf die Nutzung des Materials grundsätzlich positive Rückmeldungen erfasst werden konnten.
