(Revista de Saúde Pública, 2021)OBJECTIVE: Estimate the effect of age, period, and birth cohort on mortality from oral and oropharyngeal cancer in Brazil and its macro-regions. METHODS: Deaths from oral and oropharyngeal cancer from 1983 to 2017 were ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Development and validation of the professional sense of competence scale (ProSOCS) for practitioners who treat disruptive behaviours in children
(Higher Education, Skills and Work-based Learning, 2021)Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to develop a measure of practitioner sense of competence when treating children with disruptive behaviours. Design/methodology/approach: Two online surveys were conducted with health, ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
A Computational Comparative Study for the Spectroscopic Evaluation of Triazine Derivative Dyes in Implicit Solvation Model Systems Using Semi-Empirical and Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory Approaches
(Australian Journal of Chemistry, 2021)The spectroscopic data for a range of cyclopenta-[d][1,2,3]-triazine derivative dyes have been evaluated using various standard computational approaches. Absorption data of these dyes were obtained using the ZINDO/S ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Ageless play: Sustaining intergenerational playgroup programmes
(Journal of Early Childhood Research, 2021)Intergenerational playgroups purposively bring older people, young children and their caregivers together to engage in play and develop reciprocal relationships. Intergenerational research focuses on the benefits for ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Long-Term Functional Outcomes After Sepsis for Adult and Pediatric Critical Care Patients—Protocol for a Systematic Review
(Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021)Objective: Sepsis is responsible for a massive burden of disease, with a global estimate of 48.9 million cases resulting in approximately 11 million deaths annually. Survivors of sepsis may also experience long-term ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Finite element analysis of the performance of additively manufactured scaffolds for scapholunate ligament reconstruction.
(PLoS One, 2021)Rupture of the scapholunate interosseous ligament can cause the dissociation of scaphoid and lunate bones, resulting in impaired wrist function. Current treatments (e.g., tendon-based surgical reconstruction, screw-based ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Understanding the Retirement Savings of Self-Employed Tradespeople in Australia
(Australian Journal of Labour Economics, 2019)Over the last decade, the Australian Building and Construction Commissioner (ABCC) together with the Association of Superannuation Funds Australia (ASFA) have raised concerns over the exclusion of self-employed tradespeople ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Social Media, Political Change, and Human Rights
(Boston College International and Comparative Law Review, 2012)In this Essay, the role of social media in progressive political change is examined in the context of the Arab Spring uprisings. The concept of social media is explained, and Clay Shirky’s arguments for and Malcolm Gladwell’s ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
‘Competitors in the surf-riding contest’: battle as theme in the first three surf novels
(TEXT, 2021)In surf fiction it is common for wave-riders to be tested. The test of self – battling against nature, against others, and against one’s own capabilities – is a popularthematic pathway for discovery, growth and freedom, ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Early surf fiction and the white worldview
(TEXT, 2021)This paper examines the first 90 years (from 1849 to 1940) in the development of surf fiction. It focuses on how, at the genre’s beginnings, the view taken of surfing was shaped by the colonial worldview, with its attendant ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Low-energy elastic electron scattering from helium atoms
(Atoms, 2021)We reinvestigate a key process in electron-atom collision physics, the elastic scattering of electrons from helium atoms. Specifically, results from a special-purpose relativistic polarized-orbital method, which is designed ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Magnetic dichroism in few-photon ionization of polarized atoms
(Physical Review A, 2021)We consider few-photon ionization of atomic lithium by linearly polarized femtosecond laser pulses and demonstrate that asymmetries of the electron angular distribution can occur for initially polarized (2p, m=+1) target ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Lessons from 2020: practical and clinical aspects of rapid telepsychology adoption in clinical psychology postgraduate programs
(Australian Psychologist, 2021)From March 2020, clinical psychology postgraduate programmes began rapidly adopting telepsychology within their training clinics to support public health and reduce the spread of COVID-19. However, implementing this rapidly, ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
A prototype home-based environmental monitoring system
(International Journal of Smart Home, 2013)An important step towards reducing humankind's reliance on unsustainable energy is by improving energy efficiency in a home or building. One solution to energy-intensive homes is to take environmental measurements in-house ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Limitations and Management of Static-Guided Endodontics Failure
(Journal of Endodontics, 2021)Endodontic treatment in severely calcified canals is always a challenging task because it can result in accidents such as deviations or perforations. Recently, guided endodontics has become an alternative approach for pulp ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Fusion of Hyperspectral and Multispectral Images Accounting for Localized Inter-image Changes
(IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2021)The high spectral resolution of hyperspectral images (HSIs) generally comes at the expense of low spatial resolution, which hinders the application of HSIs. Fusing an HSI and a multispectral image (MSI) from different ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Advancing transdisciplinary adaptation research practice
(Nature Climate Change, 2021)As we face an unprecedented planetary crisis1, we must urgently scale up our capacity to adapt to climate change impacts (Fig. 1). Any attempt to address the climate emergency requires well-coordinated collaboration between ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
A Stretchable Kirigami-Inspired Self-Powered Electroactive Sensor for Tensile Strain and Torsion Sensing
(Advanced Engineering Materials, 2021)Electroactive polymer has a great potential to be employed for making a self-powered sensor due to the ionic movement of the mobile cation that exists in the polymer structure itself. However, applying an electroactive-based ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Cancer survival prognosis with Deep Bayesian Perturbation Cox Network
(Computers in Biology and Medicine, 2021)Background: The Cox proportional hazards model with neural networks is widely used to accurately predict survival outcome for choosing cancer treatment strategies. Although this method has shown outstanding performance in ...JOURNAL ARTICLE
