Abstract:
This article presents an exploratory analysis of factors affecting belief in an afterlife. Data are taken from the 1978 subfile on the National Opinion Research Center's General Social Survey. With belief in life after death serving as the dependent variable, a number of variables are introduced in a tabular analysis. Among factors found to be statistically significant are sex, race, age, marital status, and several religious and residential variables. Controlling on frequency of church attendance and religious intensity, it is shown that Protestants have the highest incidence of belief in life after death, followed closely by Catholics, with Jews exhibiting the lowest level. A discriminant analysis was run in order to select a group of independent variables that were good predictors of belief in an afterlife. Race, religion, and church attendance were found to be significant discriminating variables of such belief.

Abstract:
Abstract Australian Baptist Churches share a demographic aging trend with many Western churches — they engage proportionately more older and less young people. Moreover, a significant proportion of children and youth lack “sticky faith” and leave church. The 2016 National Church Life Survey identifies trends in generational participation and ministry priorities. Interviewed Baptist young adults and leaders suggest as reasons youth disengage from church: external societal pressures, “siloed” programs and lack of discipleship, relationships and service opportunities. Many Australian Baptist churches are adopting a more “generational” and less “siloed” approach, but there is room for improvement in resourcing churches for “sticky” faith formation.

Abstract Australian Baptist Churches are seeking to respond to the broader trend of increasing disengagement of young people from church and faith. This article discusses Australian Baptist perspectives on generational ministries from the 2016 National Church Life Survey and interviews of generational pastors and young adults. In conversation with Fuller Youth Institute’s research, it explores how churches are “growing young”: fostering spiritual formation and discipleship with a range of spiritual practices; cultivating relationships and belonging including less “siloed” and more “generational” connections; and catalysing holistic mission including faith-sharing, community service and creation care.

Abstract:
Abstract The Baptist Union of Victoria (BUV) encourages local churches to give priority to contributing to the well-being of their local neighbourhoods through community engagement and advocacy. This commitment to holistic mission and local community development is an integral part of the public theology of local churches, given Elaine Graham’s argument that ‘practical care and service constitutes the essential praxis of public theology’. But to what extent does the reality of BUV local church mission match this rhetoric? The 2016 National Church Life Survey (NCLS) helps identify what community service BUV churches and their members are involved in. This article discusses the statistical state-wide responses of Victorian Baptists from NCLS 2016, together with interview responses from church leaders. It explores aspects of community development most valued by attenders, where church members are volunteering, and how and where churches are providing social services, prophetic advocacy and environmental care. This denominational case study illustrates that churches offering social services and fostering advocacy and creation care are functioning as the local praxis of public theology.

Abstract:
Abstract Social support networks are an integral component of an individual’s life. This presentation investigates the complementary roles of family and church members as sources of informal social support among African Americans. The analysis utilizes the African American sub-sample of the National Survey of American Life. A pattern variable was constructed that describes four types of church and family networks: 1) received support from both family and church members, 2) received support from family members only, 3) received support from church members only, and 4) never received support from family nor church members. Overall the findings indicated 1) the majority of African Americans received support from both groups, 2) a small group of respondents were socially isolated in that they did not receive assistance from either family or church members, 3) for some African Americans who were estranged from their family members, church members were an alternative source of social support.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to ascertain the extent and nature of belonging to the Australian Catholic Church as experienced by immigrants. This experience of belonging was ascertained through the quantitative study of the National Church Life Survey of 2001 and to a lesser extent the Catholic Church Life Survey of 1996. Both surveys were conducted with attenders at a particular Sunday Eucharist and hence measured the experiences only of Catholics who attend Church. This quantitative study was complemented with a qualitative study of a small group of Vietnamese Catholics who were members of a particular parish. The importance of belonging to a religious tradition is that it provides an aspect of an individual’s identity. Identity is many-faceted and formed and reformed in the context of belonging, whether that belonging is to people such as family or to groups of people such as fellow members of a religious tradition. In the process of migration and settlement, the set of primary groups to which an individual belongs is at best disrupted and at worst, lost. Belonging to a religious tradition may provide a constancy of belonging in the immigrant’s life when all other aspects of belonging are being renegotiated during settlement in the host country. In the case of the Catholic Church in Australia, there has been some debate about whether or not the Church has been welcoming of immigrants but little testing of immigrants’ experience of being welcomed and enabled to belong to the Church. The National Church Life Survey provided a unique opportunity to examine the extent and nature of belonging as experienced by immigrant Catholics. Since all respondents to the survey were asked their birthplace, comparisons could readily be made between the experiences of Australian-born Catholics and those Catholics who were born elsewhere. Since nearly 3,000 respondents completed surveys in Italian or Vietnamese, comparisons could also be made between these respondents and those who responded to the survey in English. Finally, comparisons were made between the small group of Vietnamese parishioners who engaged in the qualitative research, and other groups of Catholics. The comparisons were made between all the groups on the issue of belonging. In the survey there was a particular question that asked respondents about their experience of belonging, but there were other questions that indicated the nature of belonging of respondents, and these were used in the analysis. The results of the analyses show that on almost all measures, immigrants belong to the Church to a greater extent than Australian-born Catholics. Immigrants attend Sunday Eucharist in greater proportion than Australian born Catholics. Immigrant Catholics participated more in devotional activities, they reported a greater degree of satisfaction with their faith life and they hold more orthodox beliefs than Australian-born Catholics. However, they did participate less in parish roles and groups than did the Australian-born Catholics. Whilst it may be concluded that this participation is limited because of the barrier of language, the results of this research indicate that this is not the only barrier to participation. Even those immigrants who responded to the English language survey did not participate in parish roles and groups to the extent that Australian-born Catholics did. Further research may be able to ascertain whether cultural barriers outside the scope of this work determine the level of participation of immigrants. This research concludes that since the Second World War, Catholic immigrants have ‘done the work’ of belonging to the Australian Catholic Church. They have done this despite the ‘benign neglect’ of the Church itself and they represent in fact the Church’s ‘most Catholic’ members.

Abstract:
Since the 1960s Australia has experienced a significant demographic shift as large numbers of people have moved from rural areas and large cities to take up residence in small coastal towns. The resulting populations have a number of distinctive features which make them both a challenge and an opportunity for the Church as it seeks to minister effectively. The underlying proposition of this thesis is that since there are distinctive demographic features of these towns, and since the church is called to minister effectively, there may well be approaches or ministry philosophies which enable the church to be more effective in these populations. Distinctive Populations Using data from the 2001 census a comparison between the Australian national figures and those of coastal towns between Newcastle and Tweed Heads showed that overall the population of the coastal towns was older, less formally educated, had lower income levels, more mobile, more likely to be Australian citizens, more likely to be married or divorced, more likely to describe themselves as Christian and members of the Anglican Church than the Australian average. The Survey With the assistance of the National Church Life Survey, thirty churches in coastal towns between Newcastle and Kingscliffe, were contacted. These churches (Anglican and Protestant) were those which had had the highest number of ‘newcomers’ in the 2001 National Church Life Survey. NCLS wrote to these churches on my behalf and invited them to contact me if they were prepared to participate in my study. In the end I interviewed ordained and lay leaders as well as members of six churches. There were a number of features common to these churches including: the ordained leaders had what might be called orthodox theological views; the ordained and lay leaders were clear about the vision and direction of the church; the ordained and lay leaders were in agreement as to the role of the ordained leader – that role was clearly leadership; the welcoming nature of the congregation is vital; and the use of contemporary music and worship style. The Mission of the Church Whilst the mission of the church has been seen in different ways over the past two thousand years, it is clear that the central theme of the teaching and practice of Jesus Christ was the Kingdom or Reign of God. By his teaching and very powerfully through his actions Jesus demonstrated the reality of the new in-breaking reality. The early church was clear that it saw itself as being sent by Jesus to continue his mission of proclaiming the kingdom in the power of the Holy Spirit. Effective Church Given that the mission of the church is to focus on the Kingdom or Reign of God, it is important that this be done in an effective a way as possible. One of the challenges in this is to determine what ‘effective’ means for the church. For some, being effective means numerical growth in church attenders. For others, being effective means being a ‘healthy’ church. My conclusion is that being effective, whilst not dismissing church growth or church health, means an attitude, and that is, being focused on proclaiming the reality of the Kingdom of God. As the church is more focussed on this task, it is effective. Being Effective in Rapidly Growing Coastal Towns There seem to be a number of challenges facing the church in rapidly growing coastal towns as the church seeks to focus on the Kingdom of God. If the kingdom is good news for the poor, the question then is: who are the poor of coastal towns? An immediate need in coastal towns is community for those who are newly arrived, or poor, or otherwise on the margins of the society. The church needs to be a welcoming and inclusive place for those in need, and a place which actually helps people with their physical poverty. The church also needs to confront its own operating model in order to be effective. Too often the church is focused on its own survival and not on the kingdom. The church in its local mode seems like a religious small business. Focus on the ‘growth of the business’ may well lead to a loss of focus on the kingdom. For the church to be effective in rapidly growing coastal towns the church must take seriously the culture of those towns and seek to express its focus on the kingdom in ways that bring good news to the reality of those communities.

Abstract:
Thesis advisor: Peter Weiler
This dissertation explores the social, cultural, and political effects of the “Great Church Crisis,” a conflict between the Protestant and Anglo-Catholic (or Ritualist) parties within the Church of England occurring between 1898 and 1906. Through a series of case studies, including an examination of the role of religious controversy in fin-de-siècle Parliamentary politics, it shows that religious belief and practice were more important in turn-of-the-century Britain than has been appreciated. The argument that the onset of secularization in Britain as defined by both a decline in religious attendance and personal belief can be pushed back until at least the 1920s or 1930s is not new. Yet, the insight that religious belief and practice remained a constituent part of late-Victorian and Edwardian national identity and public life has thus far failed to penetrate political, social, and cultural histories of the period. This dissertation uses the Great Church Crisis to explore the interaction between religious belief and political and social behavior, not with the intent of reducing religion to an expression of political and social stimuli, but with the goal of illuminating the ways politics, culture, and social thought functioned as bearers of religious concerns. The intense anti-Catholicism unleashed by the Church Crisis triggered debate about British national identity, Erastianism, and the nature of the church-state relationship. Since the Reformation, Erastians – supporters of full state control of the church – and proponents of a more independent church had argued over how to define the proper relationship between the national church and state. This dissertation demonstrates that the Church Crisis represents a crucial period in the history of church-state relations because the eventual Anglo-Catholic victory ended Parliamentary attempts to control the church’s theology and practice and, therefore, sounded the death knell of political Erastianism. In short, tensions between Protestant and Catholics reached a high water mark during the years of the Great Church Crisis. These tensions catalyzed both a temporary revival of Erastianism and its ultimate descent into irrelevance

Abstract:
As the UK population expands and adverse health increases with the ageing population, health care services are under pressure to meet demands. Thus, it is necessary to understand how individuals manage their health at different stages in adulthood and identify the health and social factors across life associated with different approaches to health management. Data from the MRC National Survey of Health and Development, a British birth cohort study following 5362 individuals from birth to 68 years, were used to measure health management across adult life. Measures of health professional consultation at age 43, women’s management of symptoms and general health in midlife and health check attendance at age 68 were developed from the rich data archive. Associations were tested between health and social factors from childhood and adulthood (socioeconomic position, health, health care utilisation, lifestyle, personality and family support) and health management outcomes using multivariable regression models and structural equation modelling. Associations between measures of health management from earlier, mid and later adulthood were tested to explore patterns of health management across adult life. Childhood serious illness was associated with higher consultation at age 43 and with lower self-management in midlife and lower health check attendance in later life in women, although these associations largely operated through adult factors. Worse health in adulthood and more health care utilisation were associated with a higher likelihood of proactive health management approaches. Higher social class across life was associated with lower consultation, higher self-management and attending more health checks. Positive health behaviours were associated with higher levels of self-management and higher health check attendance. The correlates of health management differed between health challenges and life course stage. Proactive management of one health challenge was sometimes associated with the proactive management of another at a later stage in the life course. This suggests that whilst some individuals may have a greater propensity to proactively manage their health throughout adulthood by various means, other individuals may take little or no action when responding to health challenges; this group should be encouraged to better engage with proactive health management.

Thesis advisor: Jane Flanagan
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer survivors experience a range of needs in the post-treatment phase as they transition into survivorship and beyond. The transition to survivorship requires breast cancer survivors to actively engage in self-managing their care, but little is known about patient engagement into survivorship care and what factors may contribute to this. Information is needed to further explore patient engagement into survivorship care, what factors may contribute to it and which patients are more likely to engage in their care and thus be better equipped to self-manage during survivorship. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to explore how demographic/personal factors and survivorship outcomes are related to and may contribute to patient engagement in early stage breast cancer survivors. METHODS: A cross-sectional, web-based self-report national survey was conducted using measures assessing personal/demographic factors, survivorship outcomes: health-related quality of life (HRQOL), fear of cancer recurrence (FCR), cancer health literacy (CHL) and two measures of patient engagement (patient activation (PA) and knowing participation in change (KPC). There was one open-ended question regarding additional survivorship concerns, not addressed in the previous survey items. Participants were recruited using Dr. Susan Love’s Army of Women Research Foundation and Craigslist. Data were analyzed via bivariate associations and backwards linear regression modeling in SPSS. RESULTS: The final sample included 303 participants (301 females and 2 males) with a mean age of 50.70 years. The sample was predominantly White, non-Hispanic and equally dispersed across the United States. Patient engagement, as represented by PA and KPC, was significantly correlated with 13 predictor variables and there were 10 predictor variables that resulted in significant ANOVA relationships with PA and KPC. In both the KPC and PA regression models, HRQOL significantly predicted for patient engagement. In the KPC regression model, social support and level of education also significantly predicted for patient engagement and receipt of a survivorship care plan contributed unique variance to the model. The open-ended question response categories included: physical concerns, mental health concerns, financial toxicity, social support, body image concerns, other concerns or no concerns/none. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides preliminary evidence that personal/demographic factors and survivorship outcomes may contribute to patient engagement in breast cancer survivors. Using assessment tools that measure factors such as HRQOL, social support, education level and patient engagement may give providers some insight as to which survivors may be ready to engage in survivorship care and those that may need more resources and/or support. Additional studies are needed to replicate and validate these results. More research is needed aimed at maximizing patient-centered care, patient engagement and ultimately improving SC.

Abstract:
Previous studies have documented an association between mental illness rates and US-nativity, younger age at immigration, and recent immigration status among Caribbean immigrants to the US. This analysis examines these associations with the addition of important demographic controls and two indices of family support and conflict in Caribbean immigrants represented in the National Survey of American Life (n = 1623). The results indicate that previous correlates disappear when the index of family conflict is taken into account. Future efforts should focus on culturally appropriate identification and treatment methods addressing family dynamics in Caribbean immigrants.

This project proposed methodology that enhances user preference communication, enabling the landscape architect to design spaces which better meet the needs and expectations of the user(s). Semantic and visual preferences were administered to a user core group to determine guidelines that led to a design study master plan that included the design of "outdoor rooms."The advantages and disadvantages of previous written and visual survey methods were reviewed. From this review the proposed methodology was developed and tested. The results showed the users' desires where not predictable more efficient designs were enabled. This method could be used in directing a diverse set of landscape design projects.

Abstract:
The majority of people affected by stroke are older however one fifth of all persons with stroke are younger than 65 years. In Sweden the mean age at the time of a stroke is 75 years and about 5 % of those who suffer a stroke are 55 years or younger. The aim of this thesis was to describe and analyse the consequences of stroke in the younger population in terms of experiences of the rehabilitation process, return to work, self-reported physical and cognitive function and life satisfaction. Sex differences, as well as gender specific associations regarding factors of importance for return to work, deteriorated physical ability and satisfaction with life as a whole, were also studied. This thesis was based on an in-depth interview study and self reported data collected from a questionnaire answered by 1068 individuals, 18-55 years old with a first ever stroke registered in Riks-Stroke, the Swedish national quality register for stroke care. The questionnaire concerned aspects of current health condition, living and social arrangements, physical and cognitive functions, activities in daily life, relationships, social life, leisure pursuits, self-perception, participation, work and life satisfaction. Most of the questions aimed to investigate differences between the present time and before stroke onset. In-depth interviews with two men and three women aged 37-54, living at home after their stroke generated the hypotheses that younger persons with stroke are frustrated and feel invisible and outside. Rehabilitation for the young was perceived as in adequate due to the fact that the rehabilitation setting does not acknowledge the specific needs that younger persons with stroke have. Prior to the stroke 855 of 1068 (80%) of the participants, had been in paid employment. After the stroke, 65% of the men and 66 % of the women returned to work. Factors of importance for return to work were associated with the self-reported data: the feeling that it was important to work (OR 5.1), not perceiving oneself as a burden to others (OR 3.3), not having a deteriorated ability to run a shorter distance (OR 2.8) and having support for return to work (OR 3.7). Changes in self-reported physical and cognitive functions as compared with pre-stroke condition was explored in 867 (513 men and 354 women) P-ADL independent persons with stroke. Deteriorated physical abilities were reported in 56-79% and deteriorated cognitive abilities in 48- 68% of the participants. Women were significantly more affected in terms of both physical and cognitive deterioration than the men. Seventy-two percent of the participants did not know how much they could physically exert themselves after their stroke, women significantly more than men. In addition, significant associations were found between deteriorated physical function and deteriorated cognitive function as well as fear of physical exertion. The strongest association for deteriorated ability to move in crowded environments was the risk factors deteriorated cognitive ability (OR of 5.4) and being afraid of physical exertion (OR of 3.1). Life Satisfaction and factors associated with not being satisfied with life as a whole in 1068 (631 men and 437 women) persons with stroke was assessed with the LiSat 9, baseline data from Riks- Stroke and self-reported answers from the questionnaire. Fifty-three percent of the participants were not satisfied with life as a whole. Men and women were analyzed separately in terms of associations with not being satisfied with life as a whole. Women who had a haemorrhage (OR 3.9) and a deteriorated ability to concentrate (OR 2.1) had a higher risk of not being satisfied. For men the risk was associated with living without a significant other (OR 3.2), not working (OR 2.3) and deteriorated ability to concentrate (OR 2.0). In conclusion, younger individuals who have experienced a stroke feel frustrated and invisible due to the fact that their needs are not acknowledged. Age and gender have an impact on outcome of present rehabilitation programs and the problems of younger persons with stroke can be detected at an earlier stage by developing appropriate instrument and delivering information directly aimed at physical functioning. Further studies on gender specific differences in stroke outcome concerning physical and cognitive functions as well as life situation after stroke are needed. In order to optimize rehabilitation in terms of return to work, external support and motivation seem to be important factors to consider.

Abstract:
Most of the epidemiological studies of long term exposure to air pollution showed increased risk of death from cardio-respiratory diseases. However the effect of long-term exposure to air pollution on morbidity is less clear. Additionally, questions as to which stage of life is more important in the effect of air pollution on health in adulthood are still unanswered. This project investigates the relationship between long-term exposure to air pollution and cardio-respiratory morbidity using the National Survey for Health and Development (NSHD) with consideration to lifestyle and socioeconomic factors. A comparison between early life and more recent exposures to air pollution will also be made. Finally, the effect of cumulative and change in air pollution over the life course will be explored. Lung function was measured and self-reported chronic bronchitis (CB) symptoms and ischaemic heart disease (IHD) were collected in 1989, 1999 and 2006/10 for more than 3000 participants. A residential history of the NSHD participants from 1962 onwards was constructed using addresses and/or postcodes and was geocoded and linked to model black smoke (BS) sulphur dioxide (SO2) in 1962, 1971, 1981 and 1991 and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) air pollution in 1991, 2001 and 2010-11. Earlier childhood exposures to air pollutants were assessed using the Douglas and Waller index. Relationships to air pollution were investigated using various statistical models. Contrary to expectations, some results suggested protective effects of air pollution on lung function and symptoms of CB. BS showed positive associations with lung function particularly from 1999 follow-up; 10 µg/m3 of BS in 1971 and 10 µg/m3 in 1991 were associated with 19.2ml (95%CI: 3.5-34.9) and 82.9ml (95%CI: 21.2-144.5) increase in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) respectively. SO2 showed some positive (protective) associations; 10 µg/m3 of SO2 in 1962 was associated with 3.9 ml (95%CI: 0.1-7.9) increase in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) and 5.4 ml (95%CI: 0.2-10.7) increase in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) in 1989. BS and SO2 both showed positive (protective) associations with lung function decline where 10 µg/m3 of BS in 1981 was associated with 80 ml (95%CI: 16-150) less decline in FVC ; and 10 µg/m3 of SO2 in 1991 was associated with 70 ml (95%CI: 22-120 ) less decline in FVC over the 20 year period. Change and cumulative BS did not show a clear pattern in generalized analyses, however results from stratified analyses suggested positive effects on men that indicate higher BS exposure was associated with better lung function. These protective effects were more consistently observed in SO2 analyses; 10 µg/m3 change (decrease) in SO2 between 1962 and 1991 was associated with 4.3ml (95%CI: 0.4-8.2) higher FEV1 in 1989, 6.1 ml (95%CI: 0.6-11.5) higher FVC in 1989, and 8.4ml (95% CI: 3.0-13.9) higher FVC in 1999. Higher cumulative exposure of 10 µg/m3 of SO2 was associated with 0.5 ml (95% CI: 0.1-0.9) increase in FVC in 1999. Air pollution was not associated with prevalence of CB, results indicated some protective effects. Air pollution was not associated with IHD prevalence; however detrimental effects were suggested. A healthy survivor effect would explain the findings for CB and lung function whereby the most exposed individuals who potentially experience more ill health are under-represented in the study and were differentially lost to follow up. Some evidence was found to suggest greater drop-out in individuals with higher exposure in more deprived areas. However, positive association between decline in air pollution and lung function may be related to the large falls in air pollution levels over the time period of study.

Abstract:
AbstractPrevious research has shown that parental as well as own socio-economic status (SES) influence nonmarital fertility. This chapter examines to what extent the effect of parental SES on partner status at first birth is mediated through own SES. Data from the Generations and Gender Survey, British Understanding Society Survey, Dutch Survey on Family Formation, American National Survey on Family Growth, and Canadian General Social Survey are used to examine 16 national contexts. In the majority of countries, the effect of parental SES on the likelihood of having a first birth in cohabitation and in marriage is partly explained by the intergenerational transmission of SES. A direct effect of parental SES is found in Canada, USA, Norway, Bulgaria, Estonia, Georgia, and Romania. The effect of parental SES on the likelihood of having a first birth while being single and in marriage is partly explained by the intergenerational transmission of SES. In the USA, Austria, and Norway, a direct effect of parental SES was also found. The results suggest that in addition to the intergenerational transmission of SES, differences in family aid may influence the transition to adulthood. It is also possible that parental SES influences the motivation and ability to prevent pregnancies.

Abstract:
The article focuses its attention on a list of jurists and economists, all university professors, who were active in Italy in the period between the two world wars and were affiliated with Freemasonry. The survey is based on a sample of 27 individuals belonging to the Grand Orient of Italy (16 jurists and 11 economists or statisticians) and using a prosopographic approach reconstructs their scientific and professional activity. The article highlights that many of them had important positions in universities or held political and institutional roles of national importance. The author carries out some reflections on the reasons that led such a large number of teachers to join the Freemasonry and on the influence that through them it could exercise on the political and cultural life of Italy.

Abstract:
AbstractThe links between loneliness and overall morbidity and mortality are well known, and this has profound implications for quality of life and health and welfare budgets. Most studies have been cross-sectional allowing for conclusions on correlates of loneliness, but more recently, some longitudinal studies have revealed also micro-level predictors of loneliness. Since the majority of studies focused on one country, conclusions on macro-level drivers of loneliness are scarce. This chapter examines the impact of micro- and macro-level drivers of loneliness and loneliness change in 11 European countries. The chapter draws on longitudinal data from 2013 and 2015 from the Survey of Health, Aging, and Retirement in Europe (SHARE), combined with macro-level data from additional sources. The multivariable analysis revealed the persistence of loneliness over time, which is a challenge for service providers and policy makers. Based on this cross-national and longitudinal study we observed that micro-level drivers known from previous research (such as gender, health and partnership status, frequency of contact with children), and changes therein had more impact on loneliness and change therein than macro-level drivers such as risk of poverty, risk of social deprivation, level of safety in the neighbourhood.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the poignant dilemmas of those Presbyterian clergy who suffered ejection from their livings in 1662 following the passing and enforcement of the Act of Uniformity. Their commitment to a national church meant that they were reluctant Dissenters, demonstrated in ambiguous and complex relationships with the restored episcopal Church of England. For the likes of Samuel Clarke, Thomas Watson, Thomas Case, and other ejected Presbyterian ministers, print offered a way of establishing a virtual pastoral identity during the Restoration, not only through the production of new works but also through reissues of material first published during the 1640s and 1650s. The legacy of the Civil War was thus double-edged, in some ways comprising a culture of defeat, yet also contributing to a resolute and distinctive Presbyterian legacy through a vibrant print culture and the ongoing memorialization of Nonconformity.

Abstract:
This chapter examines developments in John Owen’s thinking about church government, church membership, and the observation of the sacraments. It will outline his experiments in ecclesiology in the 1640s, when the Independent party emerged as a movement for reform within the national church. It will suggest reasons for his apparent lack of interest in ecclesiology in the 1650s: a period in which his principal writings make little reference to the benefits of church membership, and in which Owen’s own ecclesiastical affiliation cannot be traced. It will discuss the renewal of his interest in church life in the 1660s and beyond, particularly as his Restoration works on the principles of public worship, together with a very complete set of auditor’s notes covering almost twenty years of his preaching, offer new ways of understanding the challenge he faced in turning local church principles into local church practice.

Full text
Abstract:
The 1ife-expectancy of hemophiliacs has risen during the last decades from (for severe hemophilia) a mere 16 yrs in 1940, 23 yrs in 1964 to almost normal after coagulation factor preparations became available. Still, many hemophiliacs encounter ratings or refusals when applying for life-insurance.We carried out three mail surveys (1972, 1978, 1985) among Dutch hemophiliacs to establish excess mortality caused by hemophilia. Follow-up for non-respondents was carried out with help from the municipal authorities, while information on the deceased was obtained from the hemophilia treatment centers. To compare mortality with the general population, we constructed Kaplan-Meier reference curves for population groups with the same age and sex distribution, using national death tables. Pending completion of the follow-up for the 1972-1985 interval, this abstract supplies the results for the 1978-1985 period.The 1978 cohort included 578 individuals, with a mean age of 26 yrs (general male population: 33 yrs). None were lost to follow-up, 22 (3.8%) had died during the 7i yrs of observation. In the reference group 1.9% mortality would have been expected. So, overall relative mortality is increased twofold compared to the general male population (95% confidence interval 1.3-3.0). Patients with an inhibitor excluded, excess mortality did not differ much for severe, moderate and mild hemophilia (relative mortality: 2.3, 1.8, 1.5). In 11 cases hemorrhage was the cause of death, but in 6 cases this was associated with an underlying lethal disorder. In 9 cases the cause of death was not related to hemophilia and in 2 it remained unknown. An inhibitor was present in 4 (18%) of these 22 patients, but in only 4% of the total group of 578. In the 1972 survey 43% of the respondents who had applied for a life-insurance (n=199) reported a rating or a refusal, in 1978 47% of 227 and in 1985 53% of 676.The excess mortality caused by hemophilia is small and similar to that due to smoking cigarettes. Moreover, the excess may be caused in part by a carry-over effect from the time before modern treatment was introduced.

Abstract:
This paper identifies subjective well-being trajectories through happiness measures as influenced by time, socio-economic, demographic and behavioural determinants. Hierarchical age-period-cohort models are applied to European Social Survey (2002–2016) data on the population aged 30 and older in 10 countries. A U-shaped relationship between age and happiness is found for some countries, but a rather flat pattern and considerable diversity beyond age 80 are detected for other countries. Lower happiness levels are found for baby boomers (1945–1964) than for preboomers and post-boomers, and also for late boomers (1955–1964) than for early boomers (1945–1954). Women, highly educated and native people are shown to have higher happiness levels than men, less educated and non-native people, respectively. Moreover, a positive assessment of income, having a partner, and being a parent, in good health, employed and socially active are all found to have a positive impact on happiness levels. We find evidence of gaps in happiness levels due to differences in socio-economic characteristics over the life course in some, but not in all of the countries analysed.

Abstract:
The results of empirical studies focusing on gender differences in subjective wellbeing based on either national or comparative international data are inconclusive. In Turkey, where levels of gender inequality are high, women tend to report higher levels of life satisfaction than men. This study investigates the relationship between factors related to women’s empowerment and life satisfaction for both ever-married and never-married women using the 2018 Turkey Demographic and Health Survey (TDHS), which collected data on life satisfaction for the first time in a TDHS series. The results show that in addition to their material resources and living environment, factors related to women’s agency – i.e., education and participation in decisionmaking – are associated with women’s levels of life satisfaction.

Atkinson, Dan, and Alex Hale, eds. From Source to Sea: ScARF Marine and Maritime Panel Report. Society of Antiquaries of Scotland, September 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.9750/scarf.09.2012.126.

Full text
Abstract:
The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under four headings: 1. From Source to Sea: River systems, from their source to the sea and beyond, should form the focus for research projects, allowing the integration of all archaeological work carried out along their course. Future research should take a holistic view of the marine and maritime historic environment, from inland lakes that feed freshwater river routes, to tidal estuaries and out to the open sea. This view of the landscape/seascape encompasses a very broad range of archaeology and enables connections to be made without the restrictions of geographical or political boundaries. Research strategies, programmes From Source to Sea: ScARF Marine and Maritime Panel Report iii and projects can adopt this approach at multiple levels; from national to site-specific, with the aim of remaining holistic and cross-cutting. 2. Submerged Landscapes: The rising research profile of submerged landscapes has recently been embodied into a European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) Action; Submerged Prehistoric Archaeology and Landscapes of the Continental Shelf (SPLASHCOS), with exciting proposals for future research. Future work needs to be integrated with wider initiatives such as this on an international scale. Recent projects have begun to demonstrate the research potential for submerged landscapes in and beyond Scotland, as well as the need to collaborate with industrial partners, in order that commercially-created datasets can be accessed and used. More data is required in order to fully model the changing coastline around Scotland and develop predictive models of site survival. Such work is crucial to understanding life in early prehistoric Scotland, and how the earliest communities responded to a changing environment. 3. Marine & Maritime Historic Landscapes: Scotland’s coastal and intertidal zones and maritime hinterland encompass in-shore islands, trans-continental shipping lanes, ports and harbours, and transport infrastructure to intertidal fish-traps, and define understanding and conceptualisation of the liminal zone between the land and the sea. Due to the pervasive nature of the Marine and Maritime historic landscape, a holistic approach should be taken that incorporates evidence from a variety of sources including commercial and research archaeology, local and national societies, off-shore and onshore commercial development; and including studies derived from, but not limited to history, ethnology, cultural studies, folklore and architecture and involving a wide range of recording techniques ranging from photography, laser imaging, and sonar survey through to more orthodox drawn survey and excavation. 4. Collaboration: As is implicit in all the above, multi-disciplinary, collaborative, and cross-sector approaches are essential in order to ensure the capacity to meet the research challenges of the marine and maritime historic environment. There is a need for collaboration across the heritage sector and beyond, into specific areas of industry, science and the arts. Methods of communication amongst the constituent research individuals, institutions and networks should be developed, and dissemination of research results promoted. The formation of research communities, especially virtual centres of excellence, should be encouraged in order to build capacity.

National report 2009-2019 - Rural NEET in Romania. OST Action CA 18213: Rural NEET Youth Network: Modeling the risks underlying rural NEETs social exclusion, December 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.15847/cisrnyn.nrro.2020.12.

Full text
Abstract:
This report describes a particular situation of young population in Romania: the population of NEETs, with a focus on rural NEETs.Based on a complex methodology which uses data from different national sources (INS) and international sources (Eurostat, EU Labour Force Survey-EU-LFS, OECD),this report gives an overview of the evolution and particularities of NEETs in Romania during the previous deca-de, namely 2009-2019.Within the last ten years, the population of NEETs in Romania has grown rapidly, placing Ro-mania in first place in the EU-28 in terms of the share of this population among the young population. Thus, in 2009 Romania with a NEET rate of 13.9%, occupied first places in the EU, along with Bulgaria (19.5%), Italy (17.5%), Latvia (17.5%) (Eurostat, 2020). A decade later, in Bulgaria and Latvia, the NEET rate decreased significantly to 13.7% and 7.9%, respectively, but in Romania and Italy it increased by more than 1pp: 14.7% in Romania and 18.1% in Italy. (Eurostat, 2020). The causes for this are both individual (way of life, socio-familial origin, expectations and aspirations) and socio-economic (accessibility of the education system, development of lifelong learning, correspondence between education and labour market demand, particu-larities of the Romanian labour market, socio-economic policies supported by central and local authorities, etc.)
