title: Beyond Pākehā paralysis: Exploring the journeys & experiences of Pākehā allyship in psychology

authors: Stolte, Ottilie Emma Elisabeth

abstract: The monocultural foundation of psychology is interwoven with the colonial history of Aotearoa New Zealand. Not all of the mahi of decolonising psychology is the responsibility of Māori. In Aotearoa, there is currently less literature around the development of racial justice allyship and how Pākehā (as the dominant majority) can work towards honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi. This paper draws on interviews with three Pākehā allies who have taken actions towards greater inclusion of Māori and raising awareness of systemic injustices and racial disparities. The objective of this paper is to document the understandings shared by these ‘reluctant allies’, focusing on the challenges, possibilities, and suggestions for a more culturally relevant psychological education and practice for Aotearoa New Zealand.

title: A rational approximation to the evolution of a free surface during fluid withdrawal through a point sink

authors: Hocking, Graeme Charles

subjects: mathematics

abstract: The time varying flow in which fluid is withdrawn from a reservoir through a point sink of variable strength beneath a free surface is considered. Asymptotic techniques are used to derive an approximate solution to the flow that is valid at intermediate times, giving a simple rational approximation to track changes in the free surface for any temporal variations in the sink strength. Comparisons with numerical simulations are given, showing that the approximation has wide applicability.
