Using GIS and satellite data to assess access of green area for children living in growing cities
Urban green space (UGS) refers to open spaces within an urban context that are filled with greenery and nature. These can range from very small vegetation to expansive park areas. The common denominator is that they have proven to be beneficial for human health and well-being. Access to green spaces is also important for children. Research suggests that time spent in green spaces supports the beha
The Camera "at the Trowel's Edge" : Personal Video Recording in Archaeological Research
Video recording is increasingly becoming a favourable medium in archaeological research, particularly as an unconventional documentation tool that captures the elusive processes of ongoing interpretation in an audiovisual format. Our research forms part of the Personal Architectonics Through INteraction with Artefacts (PATINA) project, a project focused on the design of technologies for supporting
Plural mass nouns and the construal of individuation : Crosslinguistic evidence from verbal and nonverbal behaviour in labelling and non-labelling contexts
Considering the third time frame of the thinking-for-speaking hypothesis (tfs), online language use affects subsequent nonverbal categorical perception preferences (Slobin 2003); according to the universalist view, nonverbal cognitive thinking is arranged in universal conceptual structures underlying surface crosslinguistic differentiations (Imai & Gentner 1997). In the present study, we exami
Using requirements engineering in the development of resilience guidelines for critical infrastructure
The purpose of this paper is to show how requirements engineering techniques can be used to structure the development of non-technical aspects of socio-technical systems, such as guidelines. An adapted requirements engineering approach was chosen to elicit requirements for resilience guidelines within an EU Horizon 2020 multi-national project aimed at developing resilience guidelines for crisis ma

Grammatical gender affects gender perception : Evidence for the structural-feedback hypothesis
Two experiments assessed the extent to which grammatical gender provides a predictive basis for bilinguals’ judgments about perceptual gender. In both experiments, French-English bilinguals and native English monolinguals were consecutively presented with images of objects manipulated for their (i) conceptual gender association and (ii) grammatical gender category and were instructed to make a dec
Workarounds and trade-offs in information security-An exploratory study
Purpose-The purpose of this paper is to investigate relationships between workarounds (solutions to handling trade-offs between competing or misaligned goals and gaps in policies and procedures), perceived trade-offs, information security (IS) policy compliance, IS expertise/knowledge and IS demands. Design/methodology/approach-The research purpose is addressed using survey data from a nationwide
Sensemaking following surprise in the cockpit—a re-framing problem
Re-framing is the process by which a person “fills the gap” between what is expected and what has been observed, that is, to try and make sense of what is going on following a surprise. It is an active and adaptive process guided by expectations, which are based on knowledge and experience. In this article, surprise situations in cockpit operations are examined by investigating the re-framing proc
The Whorfian time warp : Representing duration through the language hourglass
How do humans construct their mental representations of the passage of time? The universalist account claims that abstract concepts like time are universal across humans. In contrast, the linguistic relativity hypothesis holds that speakers of different languages represent duration differently. The precise impact of language on duration representation is, however, unknown. Here, we show that langu

Imagery beyond representation
Pictorial and visual elements are special types of archaeological data that transgress boundaries: between us and the past and between the material and immaterial. Traditionally, images have been discussed in terms of what they represent, mean or symbolize. In this volume, the authors explore other ways in which images a!ect and engage the beholder and the modes in which they are entangled in past
A Beautiful Failure : The Event of Death and Rhetorical Disorder in the Gospel according to Mark
Is there beauty in rhetorical failure? This study is an exploration of disorder and death in the Gospel according to Mark (Mk). With a surviving fragment from the second-century theologian Papias of Hierapolis, the early reception of Mk locates insights into the composition of Jesus’s death, especially through the concepts of ataxia and rhetorical failure. Papias launches an early and influential
Flexing gender perception : Brain potentials reveal the cognitive permeability of grammatical information
A growing body of recent research suggests that verbal categories, particularly labels, impact categorization and perception. These findings are commonly interpreted as demonstrating the involvement of language on cognition; however, whether these assumptions hold true for grammatical structures has yet to be investigated. In the present study, we investigated the extent to which linguistic inform

Towards understanding work-as-done in air traffic management safety assessment and design
This paper describes the approach taken and the results to develop guidance, to include Resilience Engineering principles in methodology for safety assessment of functional changes, in Air Traffic Management (ATM). It summarizes the process of deriving resilience principles for ATM, originating from Resilience Engineering concepts and transposed into ATM operations. These principles are the founda

Where Is the Organization Looking in Order to Be Proactive about Safety? A Framework for Revealing whether It Is Mostly Looking Back, Also Looking Forward or Simply Looking Away
Despite the desire to utilize proactive safety metrics, research results indicate imbalances can arise between economic performance metrics and safety metrics. Imbalances can arise, first, because there are fewer proactive metrics available relative to the data an organization can compile to build reactive metrics. Second, there are a number of factors that lead organizations to discount proactive
