National and International Monitoring of Student Literacy and Numeracy Attainment: The Case for Rigorous Macro and Micro Analysis

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In her 2024 paper Are Australian students' academic skills declining? Interrogating 25 years of national and international standardised assessment data, Larsen compiled an impressive summary of major international (PISA, PIRLS and TIMSS) and national (NAPLAN) standardised assessments pertaining to literacy and numeracy.

New Water Oxidation Mechanism in Photosystem II Resolves Major Experimental Controversies

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
In Photosystem II Oxygen Evolving Complex, we discovered the O3‐O6 peroxide at lower energy. Assignment of the O3 ligated by histidine (His337) as a slow exchanging substrate and its coupling with O6 give the O─O bond formation mechanism most consistent with all currently available experimental data. Proposal shows how protein environment can steer the

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

Specific Ion Effects of Chaotropic and Superchaotropic Anions Probed by Raman Hydration‐Shell Spectroscopy

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The vibrational frequencies of “dangling” water O─H bonds can be determined by Raman hydration‐ shell spectroscopy and used to differentiate chaotropes from kosmotropes and hydrophobes. Dangling O─H bonds are also detected around superchaotropic anions of the borate cluster type (B12X122−; X = H, F, Cl, Br, and I) but their frequencies do not directly ...

Housing as Asset‐Based Welfare in Australia: An Investigation Through a Consumption Lens

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Housing asset‐based welfare has long been a key component of Australia's social policy. This resonates with a parallel literature identifying a trade‐off between homeownership and the size of nations' welfare states, wherein owner‐occupiers in smaller welfare states tend to come to rely on housing wealth to meet many of their welfare needs ...

Expanding High‐Fidelity Multiplexing in Ultrasensitive Single‐Molecule Protein Detection via Proximity Barcoding

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We develop an ultrasensitive, high‐accuracy multiplex protein detection platform integrating high‐throughput single‐molecule protein detection with proximity ligation. Using paired DNA barcodes, this platform breaks the digital immunoassay multiplexing ceiling imposed by cross‐reactivity and fluorescence spectral overlap, providing a broadly accessible

Wealth Maximization: A "Sober" Analysis

, 2017
In this paper, I first consider the ethical implications of "Wealth Maximization", an ethical theory that permeates "stereotypical" economic analysis, by analyzing Richard Posner's conception from his 1985 work, Wealth Maximization Revisited. Ultimately,

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 ...

To What Extent Do Australian Government Metrics Align With Indigenous and Non‐Indigenous Conceptualisations of Wellbeing? A Scoping Review of Wellbeing Frameworks

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Indigenous wellbeing theories offer potential to better measure social and cultural determinants. This scoping review aimed to identify the types of metrics used by the Australian government to assess wellbeing and evaluate the alignment of current frameworks against Indigenous and non‐Indigenous conceptualisations of wellbeing.
