Consensus Validation of a CALD Advisory Panel Implementation Framework Using a Modified Delphi Method
No full textThis project involves a Modified Delphi study to refine and validate a CALD Advisory Panel Implementation Framework designed to guide culturally safe, equitable, and operationally robust community advisory panel structures in culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) research contexts.
The framework was developed through a scoping-informed best-fit framework synthesis integrating Indigenous governance models, cross-cultural research frameworks, multicultural health research practices, and inclusive patient and public involvement literature
This Delphi study will establish multi-sector expert consensus on core components, operational clarity, and implementation priorities through 2–3 iterative rounds of structured rating and feedback
Emerging Adults' Understanding of Online Hate Speech
No full textWarning: the material shown here is of disturbing nature.
Contained here are examples of social media posts with anti-Black racism, Islamophobic, antisemitic, and anti-Romani messages used as focus group stimuli to explore how emerging adults perceive and engage with online hate speech. The examples are a mix of explicit, implicit, visual, and textual posts.
Participants were asked:
1. Is this hate speech; why / why not?
2. How does it make you feel?
3. What do you think about the post?
4. What would you do if you read this post
Closing the Execution Gap: A Policy Framework for Independent Verification of Computational Research
No full textThis project examines the structural reasons why reproducibility failures persist even under ideal Registered Reports (RR) conditions and outlines the system‑level requirements for independently verifying computational execution. While RR have transformed scientific publishing by ensuring transparency of intent, they do not verify execution. Modern computational workflows are complex, fragile, and often opaque to peer review; reviewers cannot rerun analyses, reconstruct environments, or detect silent deviations. These challenges are infrastructural rather than editorial.
The materials in this project present a policy‑oriented framework for addressing the “execution gap” through research infrastructure that supports independent re‑execution, tamper‑evident audit trails, controlled data domains, and validator independence. The framework emphasises privacy, locality, and GDPR alignment: sensitive data remains under the researcher’s control, and only digital fingerprints and high‑level summaries are shared. The goal is to support international discussion among funders, institutions, journals, and research‑integrity bodies about how execution‑verification infrastructure should be assembled and governed.
This project forms part of a broader conceptual trilogy exploring:
the execution gap,
the architectural requirements for independent verification, and
the governance principles needed to ensure trustworthiness and resistance to institutional capture.
All materials are conceptual and policy‑focused. They do not represent production code or an operational system
Auction Dynamics and Inventory Constraints in Digital Advertising Platforms
No full textThis paper presents a structural analysis of auction dynamics in constrained digital advertising environments, with a particular focus on YouTube advertising campaigns operating under policy restrictions or limited inventory conditions.
Standard digital advertising models assume access to large pools of eligible placements and relatively stable auction environments. However, campaigns promoting content in restricted or sensitive categories often operate under significantly different structural constraints. These constraints can dramatically reduce available inventory, increase auction volatility, and distort commonly used performance metrics such as CPV, delivery pacing, and impression availability.
The study examines how these limitations affect bidding dynamics, delivery patterns, and advertiser expectations. Rather than interpreting performance fluctuations as purely tactical issues related to targeting or bidding strategy, the paper argues that many anomalies observed in restricted campaigns arise from deeper structural factors within the advertising auction system.
Using practical observations from real-world campaign environments, the analysis outlines key mechanisms that influence delivery outcomes in constrained markets, including inventory scarcity, auction fragmentation, and competitive pressure within limited placement pools.
The paper contributes to the broader understanding of digital advertising systems by highlighting how structural constraints reshape auction behavior and advertiser performance metrics. The findings are particularly relevant for researchers and practitioners working with platform advertising, digital marketing analytics, and large-scale advertising marketplaces
Co-designing whānau stories to reduce opioid use for chronic pain in Aotearoa
No full textThis Māori-centred research is underpinned by a participatory action research framework with four phases. Supported by our Kaumātua (Māori elders), Phase I will involve co-designing digital video stories with Māori patients and whānau across NZ (n=25) using a group-based, digital storytelling method to capture their life journeys before opioid use, barriers and enablers during opioid reduction, and life after opioid cessation.
We will also collect clinicians’ stories (n=5) to capture the challenges they face when facilitating opioid
tapering consultations. In Phase II, a whānau-focused storytelling intervention including whānau and
clinician stories will be created using an iterative co-design process. In Phase III, the storytelling
intervention will be evaluated for all patients during clinical consultations (n=50) to facilitate shared decision making in four tertiary pain services (Wellington, Auckland, Counties Manukaū, and Waitematā) and four primary care practices. This single group, pre-post study design will include a mixed method evaluation of patients’ intention to taper. In Phase IV, we will transfer the knowledge we gained via a NZ public website
RRD Manaus
No full textProjeto desenvolvido para atividades de pesquisa-ação, ensino e extensão no âmbito do Programa de Pós-graduação em Geografia da Universidade Federal do Amazonas, visando subsidiar a criação do Plano Municipal de Redução de Risco em Manaus, financiado pelo Edital 04/2024 PEX-CT&I/FAPEA
Zero Sum Solidarity
No full textSolidarity is a crucial component in addressing the inequalities that affect marginalized communities and form positive intergroup relations. However, there are discrepancies in when and how people extend their solidarity, potentially undermining collective efforts to improve the livelihood of various communities. The study aims to investigate two boundary conditions that may fracture solidarity extension: political ideology and zero-sum thinking. More specifically, how zero-sum thinking and political ideology may affect solidarity towards the Black community and the police force. This research advances our understanding of the specific psychological constructs that can drive intergroup solidarity, offering potential considerations for when people choose to extend or withhold their solidarity.
Specifically, we propose the following research questions:
Research Question 1: Is the relationship between perceptions of inequality and solidarity with different groups mediated by zero-sum thinking?
Research Question 2: How does political ideology shape the association between perception of inequality and zero-sum thinking with different groups
Reimagining social accountability in health professions education: Unlocking impact through evidence-informed approaches
No full textHealth professions education (HPE) institutions have a social responsibility to align their education, research, and service activities with the needs of the communities they serve. Although social accountability (SA) has been increasingly emphasized in policy recommendations and accreditation standards, how institutions and programs translate this mandate into concrete, measurable actions remains unclear. In particular, the strategies used by faculties and programs to operationalize SA, and the indicators employed to document and assess these commitments, are inconsistently described in the literature.
The objective of this scoping review is to identify and analyze existing literature on the strategies and approaches implemented by health sciences faculties and programs to operationalize their social accountability mandates, and to document the indicators and outcomes used to assess these efforts. By mapping the breadth and depth of available evidence, this study aims to clarify how SA is enacted, documented, and evaluated within HPE institutions. The findings will provide an evidence base to support institutional leaders, educators, and accrediting bodies in strengthening how social accountability is implemented and assessed across health professions education programs
