Humphry Davy: Science, Authorship, and the Changing Romantic
Full text linkIn the mid to late 1700s, men of letters became more and more interested in the natural world. From studies in astronomy to biology, chemistry, and medicine, these philosophers pioneered what would become our current scientific categories. While the significance of their contributions to these fields has been widely appreciated historically, the interconnection between these men and their literary counterparts has not. A study of the Romantic man of science reveals how much that figure has in common with the traditional Romantic literary figure embodied by poets like William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. This thesis interrogates connections between Romantic literature and science by examining the figure of the Romantic author. In his 1969 essay What is an Author? Foucault called into question the way we think about authorship. Foucault states that before the late eighteenth-century, what we call literary texts were accepted, put into circulation and valorized without any question about the identity of the author (108). Simultaneously, scientific texts were accepted in the Middle Ages, [. . .] only when marked with the name of their author (109). Foucault argues that norms of authorship underwent a reversal in the eighteenth century. The result of this shift is that literary discourses came to be accepted only when endowed with the author function while in the sciences, the author function faded away (109). A case study of the scientist Humphry Davy disrupts Foucault\u27s suggestion that a total reversal in the workings of the author function was achieved by the Romantic period. I argue that Davy is an exception to Foucault\u27s history of authorship and that Davy\u27s authorial identity in the sciences as the public man of science is equal to the author function of literary figures of the same period. Davy pioneered the public man of science, a figure who corresponds nearly perfectly with the emerging figure of the author in the literary sphere. Ultimately we see Davy as a figure who embodies and reconstructs the Romantic I and requires us to reconsider the category of scientific authorship and the figure of the scientist as author

Children’s rights in social work practice: Theory, protection, participation and provision
No full textThis is an Accepted Manuscript of a book chapter published by Routledge in [Children’s rights in social work practice: Theory, protection, participation and provision] on [date of publication], available online: http://www.routledge.com/[BOOK ISBN URL]In child protection social work, children and their circumstances are unique, often lacking in clarity and requiring a subjective view. For social workers, the dominant discourse is safeguarding and, in certain circumstances, identifying, predicting and analysing risk of harm may be straightforward. Once established, social workers can offer appropriate support, money and access to services for the child and family. However, whilst social workers regularly assign ‘risk of harm’ as the dominant discourse, the deeper layers and lived experiences of children and families create alternative, competing discourses from a service user perspective, leading to a false clarity. With children and their parents often excluded from iterative participatory processes, their progression in the field of child protection is curtailed and their experiences and opinions unheard. Lack of clarity is then evident in what children and families do not know about their own child protection planning. Using Bourdieu’s (1990) concepts of social space (field) and illusio, this chapter will explore how ‘common sense’ and ‘clarity’ practice for social workers and related actors may be new and confusing to children and parents with no previous experience of social work. For children who may already have a ‘feel for the game’ (illusio), the “rhetoric of participation does not sit easily within statutory child protection services, particularly when the child is an involuntary high-risk client” (Dillon, Greenop and Hills, 2016:75). This chapter will therefore suggest creative ways in which children can gain clarity and meaningfully participate in their own child protection planning.unfunde

What keeps you strong? A systematic review identifying how primary health-care and aged-care services can support the well-being of older Indigenous peoples
No full textAim: The objective of this systematic review was to identify primary health-care or aged-care strategies that have or could support the well-being of older Indigenous peoples. Methods: A search was undertaken of primary databases including Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature. Papers which reported on the perspectives of older Indigenous peoples, community members and provider participants were included. Findings were pooled using a meta-aggregative approach. Results: Three high-level synthesised findings – maintaining Indigenous identity, promoting independence and delivering culturally safe care – were believed to be important for supporting the well-being of older Indigenous peoples. Conclusions: As physical independence often diminishes with age, having the support of culturally safe primary health-care and aged-care services that understand the importance of maintaining an Indigenous identity and promoting independence will be crucial for the well-being of older IndigenousCarol Davy, Elaine Kite, Graham Aitken, Garth Dodd, Janice Rigney, Jenny Hayes, Jan Van Emde
A Generic Data-driven Sequential Clustering Algorithm Determining Activity Skeletons
No full textAbstractMany activity-based models start by scheduling inflexible or mandatory activities (if present), before more flexible activities. Often work and educational activities are assumed as most stringent and recognized as the only mandatory activities. According to this definition, only 45% of all schedules contains a mandatory activity (OVG single-day travel survey in Flanders, Belgium). This means 55% of schedules does not have a traditional mandatory-flexible activity structure. This research proposes a completely data-driven approach to reveal the real basic structure of individuals’ schedules, i.e. the skeleton schedule sequence. To this end, a sequential clustering algorithm was developed. Furthermore, an in-depth analysis of the parameter settings was performed. The proposed method reveals a set of skeleton activity schedules and confirms the importance of work and education
HURTing: An Analysis of Service User and Carer Referrals to a UK Social Work Regulator
No full textIn the context of increasing regulation of social workers internationally, this study examines allegations made to a UK social work regulator, the Northern Ireland Social Care Council (NISCC), by service users and carers. A retrospective review of 134 records relating to such allegations during the ten-year period 2006–2015 was undertaken, representing just over one-third (36.4 per cent) of all allegations received. Allegations were made primarily about family and child-care social workers (91.0 per cent) and reflected the four inter-linking categories of concerns about the honesty of social workers, reports that service users/carers were treated unequally, allegations that social workers failed to demonstrate respect in their interactions with service users/carers, and concerns about technical aspects of social workers’ practice. The nature of these allegations forms the acronym HURT that describes both the experiences of service users/carers and the stressful context in which social workers practice. This article concludes that addressing the stress and HURT of both parties is important and makes suggestions regarding how the findings can strengthen the role of the regulator, influence social work practice and empower service users and carers.<br/

A personalized mobility based intervention to promote pro-environmental travel behavior
No full textThe development of effective behavioral change strategies that will convince individuals to voluntarily switch to pro-environmental travel behavior is a core research area for transportation and environmental experts. Personalized travel planning (PTP) is considered as an effective approach that encourages individuals to adopt environmental-friendly travel choices. This paper describes the design and implementation of a PTP intervention that was developed based on the persuasive techniques and the stage model of self-regulated behavior change (SSBC). Based on the recorded travel diary of the individuals, web-based customized pro-environmental travel plans were suggested along with pro-environmental and pro-healthy impacts. The effectiveness was assessed by comparing the travel behavior along with consequences before and after the implemented intervention. Significant differences were observed in an individual travel behavior regarding car dependency and active mobility with an effect size of 0.28 and 0.45 (Cohen's d) respectively. On an average, 4.25 percentage points decrease in CO2 emission and 6.10 percentage point increase in physical activity level per individual was found due to their change in travel behavior. Stage analysis of the individual travel behavior revealed that the implemented PTP intervention triggers an individual's transition towards more action-oriented stages in this behavior change process. Based on the results, it is concluded that intervention is effective to promote pro-environmental and pro-healthy travel choices and can bring higher benefits when implemented on a broader level.This project has received funding from the European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 689954.
