open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.

I argue that the term “stigma” is a category term and glossing device, used to gather together and stand in for a diverse range of interactional experiences, including, but not limited to, degradation, discrediting, discrimination, marginalization, and being demeaned.

What Is the Return on Investment of Digital Engineering for Complex Systems Development Schedules? Findings From a Mixed‐Methods Case Study on the Post‐Production Design Change Processes of Navy Assets

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Complex engineered systems routinely face schedule and cost overruns, along with poor post‐deployment performance. Both INCOSE and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) have championed Digital Engineering (DE) as a potential remedy, yet most of DE's purported benefits remain anecdotal, and its return on investment (ROI) remains poorly ...

Understanding natal emigration in group‐living carnivores

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Dispersal is a key ecological and evolutionary process, yet drivers of variation in emigration under human‐modified conditions remain understudied. Using a novel genetic approach applied to harvested grey wolves in Idaho, USA, we found that prey availability and population density shape natal emigration patterns in a cooperative breeder.

open access: yesThe Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points Canada and the United States have not failed for want of accountability mechanisms in health governance.
