description: Uniforms
played a key role in the construction of masculine occupational traditions in
the British and Australian transport sectors: traditions that made it extremely
difficult for women to enter these particular areas of employment. This article
explores how attitudes to women’s clothing in non-traditional areas of
transport work (especially on trains, trams and buses) changed over the course of
the twentieth century. It shifts focus away from the wars as the only moments
when women donned uniforms to enter these male professions. Women workers in
the late twentieth century, even with anti-discrimination legislation in place,
found a battle to enter male-dominated workplaces and to be provided with
appropriate clothing. Management and union preferences for a feminised uniform,
bound up with assumptions about women’s bodies, devalued women’s status in
comparison to male colleagues and persistently excluded women from equal access
to appropriate workwear. Nevertheless, women developed sartorial tactics,
including dressing in men’s uniforms, that helped them to succeed in
non-traditional roles. Some women transport workers were able to take pleasure in
their workplace clothing, even as it posed significant challenges to their
ability to be comfortable, safe and efficient in their daily tasks.

description: Changes in the global demographic structure in past years have resulted in different types of population aging. Along with the advance of medical technology, the improvement of public health, the extension of life expectancy, and the decrease in fertility rates, the global demographic structure is gradually aging. The aging speed is increasing in various countries, and domestic aging speed is fast and rush that how to effectively deal with various elderly care problems shows the urgency; otherwise, it would become troublesome when becoming a national, governmental, social, and family burden. Precautions are therefore essential and urgent; especially, elderly economic problems involving in living standards may have a burden on families. Taking the elderly in Taiwan as the questionnaire samples, a total 500 questionnaires were distributed. After excluding invalid and incomplete questionnaires, 367 copies were valid, with the retrieval rate of 73%. Based on the results we propose suggestions, assisting governmental sectors to implement welfare policies conforming to national benefits and taking care of elderly health and wellbeing to cope with the population aging trend. We also provide social and economic suggestions in the form of mature aged entrepreneurship as a driver od social innovation.

description: Near-infrared (800-2500 nm; NIR) spectroscopy coupled to hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) has greatly enhanced its capability and thus widened its application and use across various industries. This non-destructive technique that is sensitive to both physical and chemical attributes of virtually any material can be used for both qualitative and quantitative analyses. This review describes the advancement of NIR to NIR-HSI in agricultural applications with a focus on seed quality features for agronomically important seeds. NIR-HSI seed phenotyping, describing sample sizes used for building high-accuracy calibration and prediction models for full or selected wavelengths of the NIR region, is explored. The molecular interpretation of absorbance bands in the NIR region is difficult; hence, this review offers important NIR absorbance band assignments that have been reported in literature. Opportunities for NIR-HSI seed phenotyping in forage grass seed are described and a step-by-step data-acquisition and analysis pipeline for the determination of seed quality in perennial ryegrass seeds is also presented.

description: Qaqet is a non-Austronesian Baining language of Papua New Guinea, with a very small phoneme inventory of 16 consonants and four vowels, including the voiced stops /b d ɡ/. These stops are often phonetically realized as prenasalized [mb nd ŋɡ], and this feature is assumed to be a result of language contact with surrounding Oceanic languages. Our data consist of isolated word recordings from six female speakers of the language. Using a range of acoustic measures, we compare these phonetically prenasalized stops with non-prenasalized tokens of the same /b d ɡ/ phonemes, and with the nasal phonemes proper /m n ŋ/, as well as with the unaspirated voiceless stops /p t k/. In general we find that the nasal murmur of the phonetically prenasalized stop does not fully resemble the nasal murmur of the nasal consonant proper – instead the phonetically prenasalized stop patterns between the nasal consonant and the phonetically non-prenasalized voiced stop. However, there is a clear place effect, whereby the phonetically prenasalized velar stop patterns more closely with the nasal consonants, and the phonetically prenasalized bilabial stop patterns more closely with the phonetically non-prenasalized voiced stops – with phonetically prenasalized alveolar in between the bilabial and the velar. This is particularly reflected in the distribution of energy below and above about 350 Hz. However, measures of voicing strength suggest that voicing for the velar is weaker across all manners of articulation, in line with the general difficulty of maintaining voicing at this place of articulation. We conclude that prenasalization of the voiced stops largely serves to maintain voicing for the velar place of articulation; and that if the feature of prenasalization was borrowed from neighbouring languages, it was to maintain voicing for long closure durations in a true voicing language, particularly at places of articulation where maintaining voicing is difficult.

description: Presentation given to Education Researchers for Open Science (EROS), University of York. May 2022. Title: Are you ready for DORA? Evidencing your contributions to research across all your activities

 Abstract:

 The Declaration of Research Assessment (DORA) was designed to improve the evaluation of scientific research by funding agencies, academic institutions, and other parties. It promotes the assessment of research on its own merits, rather than the journal in it was published (impact factor) or the quantity of publications and citations of an individual author (H-index).

 Over 20,000 individuals and organizations in 153 countries have signed DORA since 2012, including the University of Oxford in 2018. The University is currently developing it's DORA implementation plan, which will impact reward, promotion, hiring and funding allocation. Other Universities and funders are developing similar plans to evaluate your research more wholistically, for example by requiring evidence of your other research outputs such as software, data, training materials and policy contributions, or contributions to mentoring, the improvement of research culture, integrity, or EDI. Wherever possible, these contributions should be in the public domain and referenced with a DOI.

 In this presentation I will briefly review the recommendations of DORA. I will then highlight recent trends in the implementation of DORA by funders, specifically the narrative CV format "Résumé for Researchers" which is being championed by UKRI. I will then demonstrate tools which you can use to create the all-important DOI for your outputs, the CRediT system for attributing contributions to your outputs, and discuss the necessity for licensing to ensure your outputs and contributions are appropriately acknowledged.

description: Background: Hepatitis B is a chronic viral infection, a leading cause of primary liver cancer and identified as a major public health priority by the World Health Organization. Despite a high proportion of people in Australia who have been diagnosed with hepatitis B, significant gaps remain in health care access and in accurate knowledge about hepatitis B. Most people with hepatitis B in Australia were born in China, where the infection has an intergenerational impact with significant social implications resulting from the infection. Understanding how people of Chinese ethnicity with hepatitis B understand and respond to hepatitis B is imperative for reducing morbidity, mortality, and the personal and social impact of the infection. Methods: Qualitative semi-structured interviews with people with hepatitis B of Chinese ethnicity recruited through a specialist service identified the advice people with hepatitis B thought was important enough to inform the experience of people newly diagnosed with hepatitis B. A thematic analysis of the data privileged the lived experience of participants and their personal, rather than clinical, explanations of the virus. Results: Hepatitis B infection had psychological and physical consequences that were informed by cultural norms, and to which people had responded to with significant behavioural change. Despite this cohort being engaged with specialist clinical services with access to the most recent, comprehensive, and expert information, much of the advice people with hepatitis B identified as important for living with hepatitis B was not based on biomedical understandings. Key suggestions from people with hepatitis B were to form sustainable clinical relationships, develop emotional resilience, make dietary changes, regulate energy, and issues related to disclosure. Conclusions: The study highlights conflicts between biomedical and public health explanations and the lived experience of hepatitis B among people of Chinese ethnicity in Australia. Beliefs about hepatitis B are embedded within cultural understandings of health that can conflict with bio-medical explanations of the infection. Acknowledging these perspectives provides for insightful communication between health services and their clients, and the development of nuanced models of care informed by the experience of people with hepatitis B.

description: Objective: To determine the work location (metropolitan, regional, rural and remote) of graduates in nursing, allied health and oral health disciplines who complete their professional training, end-to-end training, in a regional or rural area noting the potential inclusion of a metropolitan-based placement for speciality practice not available in rural or regional Victoria. Methods: We tracked the place of employment from the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency (AHPRA) of all graduates from a regional/rural tertiary education provider. The student home address at enrolment, locations where they undertook all placements and their current place of work were described using an objective geographical model of access, the Modified Monash Model. Results: Seventy-five per cent of 5506 graduates were located in the AHPRA database. About one third of graduates were working in metropolitan areas, 1/3 in regional cities and 1/3 in rural areas. Students' origin accounted for 1/3 of variance in current workplace location. The more placement days students completed in regional/ rural areas was also a significant predictor of working in a regional or rural area. Conclusion: End-to-end training in regional/rural areas is an effective approach to retaining a regional/rural workforce. Student origin is a strong predictor of working rural or regionally, as is undertaking placements in rural areas. This suggests that priority for rural/ regional student placements should be given to students in end-to-end regional/ rural programs and students from a regional/ rural background.

description: Herein, we report the synthesis of novel i-corona[6]arenes and their complexation with tropylium carbocation. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction of naphthalene-2,7-diol derivatives with 3,6-dichlorotetrazine in a one-pot fashion afforded i-corona[3]arene[3]tetrazines which underwent inverse electron demand Diels–Alder reactions with enamines or norbornadiene to produce i-corona[3]naphthalene[3]pyridazines. The macrocycles adopt 1,3,5-alternate conformation to yield a large cavity. Based on 1H NMR titration, they were able to complex tropylium in a 1:1 stoichiometric ration with a binding constant up to (3.22 ± 0.73) × 104 M−1.

description: Background: Tobacco use is associated with an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD). 14% of the incidence of AD is associated with various types of tobacco exposure. Additional real-world evidence is warranted to reveal the association between tobacco use and AD in age/gender-specific subpopulations. Method: In this thesis, the relationships between diagnoses related to tobacco use and diagnoses of AD in gender- and age-specific subgroups were investigated, using health information exchange data. The non-parametric Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the incidence of AD. Furthermore, the log-rank test was used to compare incidence between individuals with and without tobacco related diagnoses. In addition, we used semi-parametric Cox models to examine the association between tobacco related diagnoses and diagnoses of AD, while adjusting covariates. Results: Tobacco related diagnosis was associated with increased risk of developing AD comparing to no tobacco related diagnosis among individuals aged 60-74 years (female hazard ratio [HR] =1.26, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.07 – 1.48, p-value = 0.005; and male HR =1.33, 95% CI: 1.10 - 1.62, p-value =0.004). Tobacco related diagnosis was associated with decreased risk of developing AD comparing to no tobacco related diagnosis among individuals aged 75-100 years (female HR =0.79, 95% CI: 0.70 - 0.89, p-value =0.001; and male HR =0.90, 95% CI: 0.82 - 0.99, p-value =0.023). Conclusion: Individuals with tobacco related diagnoses were associated with an increased risk of developing AD in older adults aged 60-75 years. Among older adults aged 75-100 years, individuals with tobacco related diagnoses were associated with a decreased risk of developing AD.

description: The beneficial effect of crop residue amendment on soil organic carbon (SOC) stock and stability depends on the functional response of soil microbial communities. Here we synchronized microbial metagenomic analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance and plant-15N labeling technologies to gain understanding of how microbial metabolic processes affect SOC accumulation in responses to differences in N supply from residues. Residue amendment brought increases in the assemblage of genes involved in C-degradation profiles from labile to recalcitrant C compounds as well as N mineralization. The N mineralization genes were correlated with the C and N accumulation in the particulate and mineral-associated C pools, and plant-derived aliphatic forms of SOC. Thus, the combined C and N metabolic potential of the microbial community transforms residue into persistent organic compounds, thereby increasing C and N sequestration in stable SOC pools. This study emphasizes potential microbially mediated mechanisms by which residue N affects C sequestration in soils.

description: This study is to assess the potential changes COVID-19 has had on the event, tourism, and hospitality industry; specifically, how the skillsets of event professional have changed. While the event, tourism, and hospitality industry is ever changing, COVID-19 vastly shifted roles, responsibilities, and jobs for event professionals. So far, few studies have been conducted to identify the potential changes in skillsets that current and future event planners need to be prepared for their job. Using data from event professionals via focus groups and a survey, this study identifies these new or heightened skillsets. The findings provide useful information for current event professionals in addition to educational programs who can adapt their curricula to best prepare future event professionals.

description: Although the alternative oxidase, AOX, was known to be widespread in the animal kingdom by 2004, its exact physiological role in animals remains poorly understood. Here we present what evidence has accumulated thus far, indicating that it may play a role in enabling animals to resist various kinds of stress, including toxins, abnormal oxygen or nutrient levels, protein unfolding, dessication and pathogen attack. Much of our knowledge comes from studies in model organisms, where any benefits from exogenously expressed AOX may be masked by its unregulated expression, which may itself be stressful. The further question arises as to why AOX has been lost from some major crown groups, namely vertebrates, insects and cephalopods, if it plays important roles favouring the survival of other animals. We conclude by presenting some speculative ideas addressing this question, and an outline of how it might be approached experimentally.

description: Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between noncognitive traits (grit, resilience, and mindset-type), academic success, and clinical performance in physical therapist students. Methods: This cross-sectional study using self-administered surveys was undertaken with final-year physical therapist students enrolled in 4 Australian universities. Participants completed validated questionnaires measuring grit, resilience, and mindset type. Academic transcripts were obtained to quantify academic success and clinical performance. A multiple regression analysis explored predictors of academic success and clinical performance in relation to sociodemographic factors, grit, resilience, and mindset type. Results: A total of 266 students participated in the study (80% recruitment rate). Overall, 25% of students had low resilience, 20% had low grit, and 14% had a fixed mindset type. Grittiness was positively associated with academic success (r = 0.24) and clinical performance (r = 0.22) and negatively associated with failing a clinical placement (r =-0.20). Grit was an independent predictor of overall academic success (β = 0.24, P ≤. 01) and clinical performance (β = 0.15). Students with low grit were twice as likely to fail a clinical placement compared with students with moderate or high grit (risk ratio = 2.03, 95% CI = 1.06 to 3.89). Conclusion: Grit was an independent predictor for overall academic success and clinical performance in final-year physical therapist students. Low grit may impact negatively on learning and students' ability to cope with challenges associated with university studies and clinical education. Further studies should investigate interventions that best develop grit in health professional students and the overlapping nature of grit, resilience, and a growth mindset. Impact: This study helps universities and educators understand noncognitive factors predicting academic success and clinical performance in physical therapist students. Universities and clinical educators may consider screening and providing proactive strategies for students with low grit to improve success and general wellbeing.

description: Communication is a skill humans are constantly utilizing, and their personality can have a strong effect on the way they utilize their communication skills. Understanding the adaptability of our ever-present communication and the influence personality type can have provides vital knowledge to all communicating individuals. This study focused on the potential connection between communication adaptability and the personality types of introversion, ambiversion, and extraversion. Many studies have explored communication adaptability and personality type independently; however, the relationship between the two has had very little study. The connection between the variables of communication adaptability and personality type was determined via a cross-sectional survey utilizing the Introversion Scale (McCroskey, 2007) and the Communication Adaptability Scale (Duran, 1983). The relationship between introversion, ambiversion, and extraversion was analyzed using Pearson’s bivariate correlation and ANOVA, which indicated that extraverted participants tended to have statistically significant higher levels of communication adaptability. There was also a moderate correlation between ambiversion and social composure, a low correlation with social confirmation, and a high positive correlation to social experience. Introversion had a moderate positive correlation with social composure and social experience. Finally, there were moderate positive correlations between extraversion and social composure as well as social experience. These results indicate that the more extraverted one is, the more likely they will be to have higher communication adaptability. Thus, there are communication adaptability strengths for all three personality types, but extraverts have the highest tendency to have high scores of communication adaptability. Individuals should consider determining what their personality type is to allow them to take advantage of their areas of strength and ascertain weaknesses they could potentially work on when it comes to their communication adaptability.

description: Background: Polyandrous social insects such as the honey bee are prime candidates for parental manipulation of gene expression in offspring. Although there is good evidence for parent-of-origin effects in honey bees the epigenetic mechanisms that underlie these effects remain a mystery. Small RNA molecules such as miRNAs, piRNAs and siRNAs play important roles in transgenerational epigenetic inheritance and in the regulation of gene expression during development. Results: Here we present the first characterisation of small RNAs present in honey bee reproductive tissues: ovaries, spermatheca, semen, fertilised and unfertilised eggs, and testes. We show that semen contains fewer piRNAs relative to eggs and ovaries, and that piRNAs and miRNAs which map antisense to genes involved in DNA regulation and developmental processes are differentially expressed between tissues. tRNA fragments are highly abundant in semen and have a similar profile to those seen in the semen of other animals. Intriguingly we also find abundant piRNAs that target the sex determination locus, suggesting that piRNAs may play a role in honey bee sex determination. Conclusions: We conclude that small RNAs may play a fundamental role in honey bee gametogenesis and reproduction and provide a plausible mechanism for parent-of-origin effects on gene expression and reproductive physiology.

description: Between 1680 and 1710, the city of London built a centralized network of lamps that dwarfed anything on the continent and soon inspired similar constructions across Europe, heralding the first creation of a modern system of public lighting. This thesis asks why such a sea change in artificial illumination happened in London at this time, and why illumination sparked resistance, by contextualizing debates about light and lighting, refusing to treat light as an autonomous issue. By examining the propaganda and internal records of three crucial joint-stock companies, the public printed record, and several sets of Chancery documents, this thesis argues that centralized artificial illumination emerged in late seventeenth-century England because of four factors: an effective popular discourse of modernization, innovative funding structures, an emergent cultural proclivity for invention, and political support for lighting projects. From there, this thesis argues that the development of centralized, standardized artificial lighting substantially altered the temporal experience of early modern Britons.

description: Concerns from the worldwide ageing population and evidence of poor-quality aged care services have highlighted the need to develop innovative models of aged care which are acceptable to older people, economically sustainable and are safe. Reablement is a relatively new model for aged care that aims to support older people's desires to age independently in their usual place of residence and decrease dependency on aged care services. This qualitative evidence synthesis aimed to explore the experiences of older people and their carers (formal and informal) towards a reablement model of community aged care to ensure services are considerate of older people's needs. A systematic search was conducted across six electronic databases (Medline, Scopus, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar) from 1990 to September 2021. Qualitative research exploring older people and their carers' experiences and perceptions of the reablement model used in community aged care services were identified. Nineteen articles were included in the synthesis following the screening of 668 abstracts and 56 full texts. Included articles were subject to quality assessment, and the data were synthesised using thematic synthesis. Three analytical themes were generated from the thematic synthesis; (i) reablement is a shift in approach to aged care, (ii) difficulties in developing tangible and meaningful reablement goals, (iii) reablement improves health and well-being. Reablement is generally well-received by older people and their informal carers. However, poor engagement from older people did occur when they had a poor understanding of their role in reablement and when they had not been fully consulted regarding their reablement goals. Current and future reablement services for older people should focus on ensuring an awareness of the processes and principles of reablement and collaboration between practitioner, the older person and their carer when developing goals to increase engagement.
