Abstract

Background: Alternative education provision such as Pupil Referral Units support young people who have been excluded from mainstream school settings and often from disadvantaged backgrounds. However, there is limited research to date exploring educators' perceptions of the complex needs of young people in PRUs, and the extent to which PRUs as currently configured can meet such needs. Methods: Between March 2019 and October 2020 twenty-two participants holding various educational roles from five different Pupil Referral Units across London and Southeast England were interviewed. The interviews aimed to explore the participants' experiences of working with students in PRU's and examine some of the challenges that they might encounter. Semi-structured interviews were analysed using Reflexive thematic analysis. Results: The three identified themes and their sub-themes highlighted the complex needs of these young people and identified significant barriers to effective service provision. The first theme 'Complexities of PRU population' highlighted the challenges that young people in PRUs face and perceived systemic short falls in addressing such complexity. The second theme 'Challenges of the PRU environment' highlights the frustrations that educators experience when it comes to providing adequate support to young people in PRU's, the absence of agency support, and the uncertainty that these educational settings can bring. The third theme 'Peer Group Influences' highlights the impact of peer groups from beyond the classroom on engagement within the classroom. Conclusions: Despite the clear complex needs of young people in PRUs, staff reported feeling ill-equipped to support these individuals and lacked access to effective inter-agency support. Participants reported that pupils' mental health difficulties were exacerbated by exclusion and reintegration practices, an over-zealous focus on educational outcomes and the impact of gang influences on their school lives. Implications include more specific mental health training for staff working in PRU's, improved inter-agency working and the incorporation of trauma-informed approaches in educational practice.

Abstract

This research examines perceived physical health, psychological distress and social support among prison officers. Specifically this study tests direct models, moderator models and mediator models of social support. The direct models allow an examination of whether social support (from a significant other and from within prison) has a direct effect on psychological distress. These models also allow an examination of whether perceived physical health has a direct effect on psychological distress. The moderator models examine whether social support (from a significant other outside prison or from within the prison) moderates the relationship between perceived physical health and psychological distress; and the mediator models examine whether perceived social support (now specifically within prison) mediates the relationship between perceived physical health and psychological distress. A total of 100 prison officers from a UK prison took part in this crosssectional study. The participants completed the Short Form-36 II (Ware, et al., 2002), the Significant Others Scale (SOS; Power et al., 1988), the Prison Social Support Scale (PSSS; a newly devised measure for this study) and the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12; Goldberg & Williams, 1988). The prison officers reported poor perceived physical health and a high proportion of officers (56.6%) reached caseness on the GHQ-12. There was evidence for a direct effect of perceived social support both from a significant other and from within the prison; however, social support within the prison was most strongly associated with psychological distress. There was also evidence for a direct effect of perceived physical health on psychological distress. There was also some evidence for a moderating effect of social support within the prison but there was no evidence for a mediating role of perceived social support within the prison. These results suggest that support from within prison is important to perceived physical health and Psychological distress. The limitations of the research are discussed before considering the research, clinical and organisational implications of the study.

Abstract

Con el objetivo de evaluar el potencial del follaje fresco de Moringa oleifera como alimento para conejos y su efecto sobre el comportamiento productivo , se realizó el presente experimento en la Unidad de Producción cunícola de la Universidad Nacional Agraria. Se utilizaron 18 conejos de razas Neozelandés Blanco y California con una edad de 40 d-1 y un peso promedio de 712.19g(127.96)agrupados en un diseño completamente al azar (DCA) con seis repeticiones por tratamiento, l os tratamientos fueron T1: 100% concentrado comercial , T2: 80% concentrado comercial + 20% follaje de Moringa o leifera, T3: 70% Concentrado + 30% follaje de Moringa o leifera. Las variables evaluadas fueron: consumo de alimento, ganancia de peso, conversión alimenticia, Morfometría del tracto gastrointestinal, características de la canal y análisis sensorial de la carne de conejos, los datos se analizaron mediante el procedimiento de análisis de varianza (ANDEVA),utilizando el Modelo Lineal General del Software MINITAB(Minitab®,versión 16.0, 2012). Los resultados obtenidos muestran que no se encontró diferencias significativas (p>0.05) en el consumo de alimento, ganancia media diaria y conversión alimenticia así mismo para la Morfometría del tracto gastrointestinal sin embargo para el análisi s sensorial de la carne los jueces no entrenados encontraron diferencias en la calidad, textura y diferencias altamente significativas en la dureza(1er mordisco). En el análisis financiero se encontró una mayor utilidad al comparar el T1 vs T3 con US$1.10 seguido por el T1 vs T2 con US$ 0.48.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was (1) to determine the effect of coarticulation on the perception of consonant and vowel features and (2) to compare the magnitude of R to L and L to R coarticulatory effects. Separated portions of CV, VC, VCV and CVC utterances were presented binaurally through earphones to 45 subjects to identify the deleted preceding or following sound. For adjacent consonant and vowel identification, the following were the response choices : consonant place of articulation—/p, t, k/, /b, d, g/, /f, s, ∫/, /v, z/ or /m, n/; consonant voicing—/p, b/, /t, d/, /k, g/, /f, v/ or /s, z/; consonant manner—/b, v, m/ or /d, z, n/; vowel height— /u, o, ɔ/; vowel tongue advancement—/i, ð, u/. The major findings were: (1) subjects determined the place, voicing and manner of articulation features of consonants from vowels; (2) subjects determined the tongue height and tongue advancement features of vowels from consonants; and (3) subjects determined features of vowels and consonants more correctly from preceding sounds than from following sounds. These findings provide the basis for the following conclusions: (1) coarticulatory effects are perceived and may be used by listeners to help identify adjacent sounds in conversational speech; (2) adjacent phoneme perception involves parallel processing of features; and (3) directional influence, rather than the cohesiveness of the CV articulatory unit, is the major factor in the perception of coarticulation.

11. New York And The War Of 1812

Author

Strum, Harvey Joel and Strum, Harvey Joel

Abstract

Between 1808 and 1815 foreign policy and domestic national issues were superimposed upon existing political divisions in New York. They reinforced some existing divisions -- Federalists versus Republicans and altered others -- the factional divisions within the Republican Party. After 1800 the majority of New Yorkers identified with the principles of the Republican Party -- republicanism, equalitarianism, nationalism, and Anglophobia. They accepted the Republican Party image of the Federalists as the party of aristocrats, elitists, Anglophiles and Tories. ... In 1812 New York Republicans in favor of war did not urge an appeal to conquer Canada nor to destroy the Indian menace. Economic conditions in Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio and South Carolina which produced support for the embargo, non-intercourse and war were not duplicated in New York. Economic depression produced by the embargo drove western and northern New Yorkers to abandon the Republican Party and settlers en masse violated the embargo, non-intercourse and the laws against trading with the enemy during the war. ...
