How does the Kids SIPsmartER program impact the sugar‐sweetened beverage intake of students: An investigation beyond total treatment effect in randomized controlled trial

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study develops and empirically estimates a structural framework to decompose the causal pathways of multilevel behavioral interventions targeting adolescent health behaviors. We apply this framework to the Kids SIPsmartER (KSS) program, a 6‐month, school‐based intervention evaluated through a clustered randomized controlled trial in rural

FLOOR HORIZONTAL ACCELERATION DEMAND IN REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAMES

, 2011
Purpose of this paper is to study how the peak floor acceleration demand varies along the height of different reinforced concrete frame buildings. This study will consider 4-, 6- and 8-storey reinforced concrete frames characterized by different masonry

Progressive Collapse Behavior of a Precast Reinforced Concrete Frame System with Layered Beams

Buildings
A possible way to improve the structural safety and robustness of precast building structures is to develop effective precast frame systems with layered beams, which combine prefabricated parts with cast-in situ ordinary concrete, high-performance ...

B/ordering and healthcare access for migrants with precarious status: The role of healthcare workers in counteracting restrictive policies

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In Canada, precarious migration is largely invisibilized. Nonetheless, b/ordering greatly affects people's realities by limiting access to social rights. In Quebec, migrants with precarious status (MPS) do not have access to healthcare, although Quebec has a “universal” healthcare coverage.

ABSTRACT The Australian paid parental leave (PPL) government scheme aims to support working parents through financial assistance and the promotion of gender equality in caregiving responsibilities. However, the scheme's implementation has been critiqued for its gendered design, which marginalises fathers and reinforces traditional gender roles.

Owning Home, Finding Belonging: Relational Meanings of Homeownership for Migrant Healthcare Workers in Australia

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Migrant healthcare workers in Australia find themselves at the centre of three intersecting concerns, often presented as ‘crises’ in contemporary discourse: the ‘care crisis’, the ‘housing crisis’ and the ‘migration crisis.’ Yet their own perspectives on these issues are rarely foregrounded. This paper explores the role of homeownership in the

Frame element including effects of reinforcement slippage for nonlinear analysis of R/C structures [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2003
This paper presents the formulation and application of the flexibility-based, reinforced concrete frame model with bond-slip. The formulation starts from the derivation of the governing differential equations (strong form) of the problem and then the ...

Stakeholder Perspectives on Therapeutic and Safe Building Design in Residential Care

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Residential care is a form of out‐of‐home care that plays a critical role in supporting vulnerable young people in Australia. However, there is an evidence gap regarding the built environment in this context. This research aimed to explore the perspectives of key stakeholders in residential care in Victoria, Australia, regarding design that ...

Seismic response of reinforced concrete frame structures with infill walls

, 2008
Reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures with infill walls, usually of unknown strength, are commonly used in developing countries. Current seismic codes used in these countries lack adequate consideration of the infill material and give wide options to
