Unmet health-related social needs are associated with pain outcomes among midlife and older adults

Victoria H. Davis, Elizabeth J. Brines, Mary R. Janevic

Introduction Chronic pain affects over one-third of U.S. older adults, and particularly socioeconomically constrained populations. Few studies examine how unmet social needs related to the social determinants of health, including food, housing, utilities, transportation, and social support, are linked to pain. This study assessed whether cumulative and individual unmet social needs are associated with pain outcomes in a predominantly Black/African American sample of adults aged 50 years and older with chronic pain …

“Developing Players as People and Learners”: How Reflective of Orthodox Masculinity Traits Are the Preferred Pedagogies of Five Regional Rugby Union Coaches?

Dave Robinson, Margaret Baguley, Martin Kerby, Brendan SueSee

Traditionally male-dominated contact sport environments such as the football codes are seen as primary propagators of attitudes and values associated with “orthodox” masculinity. Administrators, spectators, media commentators and parents contribute to the promotion of traditional Australian cultural ideals of masculinity such as physical toughness, aggression, competitiveness, stoicism and emotional reticence as desirable masculine traits. Male coaches, too, are seen as significant institutional agents in this indo …

Curious spaces: Notes on cripping with young people

Kira Shmyreva

Working with children, I find it almost impossible to share a fixed set of methods. As artists and educators, we should unlearn testing methods. I can share gifts of truth that have been shared with me, longing for uncomfortable conversations and seeking to create brave spaces. Not methods. One of these gifts was cripping the spaces. We can call these spaces accessible spaces. Or as the antiracist educator and writer Britte Hawthorne calls it: curious and empathic environments.
