    Where Participatory Approaches Meet Pragmatism in Funded (Health) Research: The Challenge of Finding Meaningful Spaces

    No full text
    The term participatory research is now widely used as a way of categorising research that has moved beyond researching "on" to researching "with" participants. This paper draws attention to some confusions that lie behind such categorisation and the potential impact of those confusions on qualitative participatory research in practice. It illuminates some of the negative effects of "fitting in" to spaces devised by other types of research and highlights the importance of forging spaces for presenting participatory research designs that suit a discursive approach and that allow the quality and impact of such research to be recognised. The main contention is that the adoption of a variety of approaches and purposes is part of the strength of participatory research but that to date the paradigm has not been sufficiently articulated. Clarifying the unifying features of the participatory paradigm and shaping appropriate ways for critique could support the embedding of participatory research into research environments, funding schemes and administration in a way that better reflects the nature and purpose of authentic involvement

    Microsatellite DNA analysis of southeast Australian Haliotis laevigata (Donovan) populations - implications for ranching in Port Phillip Bay

    No full text
    The genetic composition of greenlip abalone (Haliotis laevigata) from Point Cook in Port Phillip Bay was examined prior to the aggregation of individuals from this site for ranching. The very thinly distributed natural population at Point Cook was believed to be of low genetic diversity, because the animals all originated from a single spawning event 5 y previously. Animals from Point Cook were compared with other H. laevigata from two sampling sites within Port Phillip Bay, and two sites outside the Bay in Bass Strait, to examine their genetic diversity and origin. Variation was assessed at five microsatellite loci. Deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) were observed at some loci in various populations, but the Point Cook population was in HWE at all five loci. Mean heterozygosity and number of alleles was similar in all populations. Hierarchical analysis of molecular variance indicated significant genetic variation among populations, but did not differentiate Port Phillip Bay from Bass Strait populations. Pairwise comparisons of multilocus FSTand RST indicated significant genetic differences between Point Cook and some populations, as well as between other populations, but no consistent spatial pattern of differentiation was observed. There was no significant correlation between genetic and geographic distance. The level of genetic variation observed in the Point Cook individuals was similar to that in individuals from the other four sites, and sufficient to support a ranching program. However, this variation should be monitored to maximize genetic potential, and avoid commercially undesirable effects of inbreeding. Implications of this study in relation to the management of a ranching population in Port Phillip Bay are discussed. <br

However, the first usage of &lt;i&gt;Xystocheir&lt;/i&gt; at the family-group level was by Hoffman (1980), as he then noted, and authorship is properly attributed to him.&lt;/p&gt;Published as part of &lt;i&gt;Shelley, Rowland M., Smith, Jamie M. &amp; Ross, Deren J., 2014, Variation and pigmentation in the milliped, Xystocheir brachymacris Shelley, 1996, from the northern Sierra Nevada foothills, California, USA (Polydesmida: Xystodesmidae: Xystocheirini), pp. 1-6 in Insecta Mundi 2014 (371)&lt;/i&gt; on page 2, DOI: &lt;a href="http://zenodo.org/record/5179327"&gt;10.5281/zenodo.5179327&lt;/a&gt

    Adaptive sampling in two-phase designs: a biomarker study for progression in arthritis

    No full text
    Response‐dependent two‐phase designs are used increasingly often in epidemiological studies to ensure sampling strategies offer good statistical efficiency while working within resource constraints. Optimal response‐dependent two‐phase designs are difficult to implement, however, as they require specification of unknown parameters. We propose adaptive two‐phase designs that exploit information from an internal pilot study to approximate the optimal sampling scheme for an analysis based on mean score estimating equations. The frequency properties of estimators arising from this design are assessed through simulation, and they are shown to be similar to those from optimal designs. The design procedure is then illustrated through application to a motivating biomarker study in an ongoing rheumatology research program. This is the peer-reviewed version of the following article: McIsaac, M. A., & Cook, R. J. (2015). Adaptive sampling in two-phase designs: a biomarker study for progression in arthritis.
