Social Science Research Council Research Articles

Co-editors' Note

Co-editors' Note Erin Morton and Suzanne Morton HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US! This autumn it is 50 years since the "new" Acadiensis began publication in 1971, with 95 pages that included an introduction by Acadiensis's founding editor Phil Buckner (two years into his UNB career and one year from his PhD), three research articles, a report from the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick, a document analysis, and a review essay on recent regional literature. The authors of the research articles ranged in career stage from emerging to near retiree: E.R. Forbes was still a doctoral student while teaching at the University of Victoria; Bernard Pothier was employed at the Canadian War Museum; and W. Stewart MacNutt, who had joined UNB in 1946 at the age of 38, was dean of arts and three years away from retirement. While we honour the work of the founders of Acadiensis with this anniversary issue, we also want to think about where scholarship of the Atlantic region is going next. This issue marks this anniversary with a set of essays exploring the current state of study of the history of the Atlantic region with a look to the future. Jerry Bannister, Nicole Lang, Heidi MacDonald, Michael Poplyansky, Danny Samson, and Martha Walls come from a demographic cohort that followed the first "Acadiensis generation" of the late 1970s, and we are especially pleased to publish "dialogues" reflecting on aspects of the journal's history organized by two doctoral students – Courtney Mrazek and Mercedes Peters. Since 2003, Stephen Dutcher has been managing editor of Acadiensis and his reflections offer insight with his experience with the journal since 1993 as an UNB graduate student advised by E.R. Forbes, as an author in the journal, and as runner of its everyday operations. Since history is always written in the present, our anniversary issue also grapples with current struggles. The backdrop to producing this issue was the COVID-19 pandemic, which spurred fractious electoral politics and necessitated finding new ways of engaging students in our suddenly virtual classrooms. Incoming Acadiensis co-editor Peter Twohig's research note "COVID-19 and the Labour of Care," Raymond Blake's offering of a historian's take on electoral campaigns in Newfoundland and Labrador, and Janis [End Page 5] Thiessen's contribution on teaching with podcasts offer perspectives firmly rooted in the concerns of 2021. The issue is rounded out with two research articles by Willeen Keough and Leanna Thomas that take us from thinking about ecomasculinity on the Newfoundland sealing ice to Acadian historiographical debates in fiction. As co-editors in marking the 50th anniversary of this journal, we want to acknowledge the public work of our authors, past editors, and co-editors (noting long service by Phil Buckner, David Frank, Gail Campbell, Bill Parenteau, and John Reid); our managing editor Stephen Dutcher; Frenchlanguage editors; review essay editors; digital communications editor (Corey Slumkoski is the only one to hold this important post!); members of the editorial and advisory boards; French copyeditor and translator Réjean Ouellette; and layout and design expert Roy Dawson.1 Of course, we also want to thank the financial support of University of New Brunswick, the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada, and our subscribers and aggregators. Finally, we are especially grateful to the hundreds and hundreds of invisible and anonymous experts who have taken valuable time from their busy lives to provide careful and thoughtful reviews of submissions essential for the peer review of process. Thank you. Merci. Wela'lin. Woliwon. [End Page 6] Footnotes 1.

Opening up research in social sciences

The Open Research Area (ORA) for Social Sciences is an international initiative that provides social science research funding and support. It was founded in 2010 by members of the Bonn Group and based on agreement by European social science funding bodies The Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR), France, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), Germany, the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), UK, and the Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (NWO), the Netherlands. The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), Canada, later joined, as well as the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) as an associate member. ORA facilitates collaborative social sciences research by bringing together researchers from participating countries. Researchers from the partner countries who fulfil the eligibility criteria of their national funding organisation apply to the ORA office handling the year's applications and Japanese researchers submit their applications to JSPS Tokyo. ORA accepts applications from all areas of the social sciences and there is a key focus on supporting young researchers at the beginning of their careers, helping them to extend the reach of their work and network on an international scale. Ultimately, ORA exists to drive forward high-quality research and strengthen international collaboration in social sciences research. So far, five rounds of ORA have been successfully completed, with more than 60 international collaborative proposals funded across diverse social sciences fields, including political science, economics, empirical social science, psychology, geography, urban planning and education science.

How Mathematical Economics Became (Simply) Economics: The Mathematical Training of Economists during the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s in the United States

Before the use of mathematics in economics was generalized, mathematical and nonmathematically trained economist lived together. This paper studies this period of cohabitation. By focusing on the communication challenges between these two groups during the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, a watershed moment, this paper analyzes the entrance of mathematics into economists’ training. The paper explores the development of teaching materials specific for the mathematical training of social scientists, the entrance of mathematics to the economics curriculum, and the role of the Social Science Research Council in this delivered process. All these elements are integral to understand how the mathematical methods and tools introduced by a small group of economists during the mid-twentieth century came to be adopted by the entire discipline within a couple of decades and thus effected a permanent transformation of economics.

Experiential Learning in a Canadian Physical Education Class: A Comparative Perspective from Pre-service PE Teachers in Canada and China

This article focuses on a comparative analysis of traditional Physical Education games and experiential learning on the part of teacher candidates enrolled in an Ontario Faculty of Education and one in Southwest China. Funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) partnership grant for research on Reciprocal Learning between Canada and China, the researchers conducted a qualitative study interviewing ten teacher candidates from the reciprocal Faculties of Education. Emergent themes included risk-taking and resilience, willingness to implement foreign practices, division of sport-related skills, and daily physical activity (DPA). Findings suggest that DPA is overlooked in Canadian classrooms; Chinese teachers are more likely to implement foreign practices, and skills development in traditional PE games is disparate between Canada and China.

Whose Research Is It? Reflection on Participatory Research with Women and Girls with Disabilities in the Global South

Drawing on the Transforming Disability Knowledge, Research, and Activism project, funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (2016-2020), this article critically reflects on the project’s participatory research process that involved young women and girls with disabilities in the Global South. I discuss epistemological and methodological questions related to the deployment of decolonizing research methodologies in the Global South in relation to theoretical and methodological approaches for engaging girls with disabilities. I argue that a critical, reflexive, and decolonizing research approach that embodies knowledge from the Global South is essential for empowering these girls to express themselves through multiple forms of representation.

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of a Commercial Physical Activity App

Background: Government interest in commercial physical activity apps has increased with little evidence of their cost-effectiveness. This is the first study to our knowledge to examine the cost-effectiveness of a commercial physical activity app (Carrot Rewards). Methods: A cost-effectiveness analysis was performed to calculate the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of Carrot Rewards compared to a no-intervention reference scenario using a five-year time horizon. An age-, sex-, and geography-dependent Markov model was developed assuming a public healthcare payer perspective. A closed cohort (n=38,452) representing the population reached in two Canadian provinces (British Columbia, Newfoundland & Labrador) at the time of a 12-month prospective study was used. Costs and effects were both discounted at 1.5% and expressed in 2015 Canadian dollars. Subgroup analyses were conducted to compare ICERs between provinces, sexes, age groups, and engagement levels. Findings: Carrot Rewards had an ICER of $11,113 CAD per quality adjusted life year (QALY), well below the $50,000 CAD per QALY willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold. Subgroup analyses revealed that the app was more cost-effective for British Columbians, females, highly engaged users, and adults aged 35-64yrs, and was dominant for older adults (65+yrs). Deterministic sensitivity analyses revealed that the ICER was most influenced by the relative risk of diabetes. Probabilistic sensitivity analyses revealed varying parameter estimates predominantly resulted in ICERs below the WTP threshold. Interpretation: Carrot Rewards is cost-effective, and dominant for older adults. These results provide, for the first time, rigorous health economic evidence for a commercial physical activity app as part of public health programming. Funding Statement: Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) Multi-Sectoral Partnership Approach to Healthy Living and Chronic Disease Prevention, as well as the Baycrest’s Soupcoff Family Fellowship, Mitacs Elevate, Sandra Rotman Centre for Health Sector Strategy Fellowship, Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council Partnership Grants. Declaration of Interests: MM received consulting fees from Carrot Insights Inc. from 2015 to 2018 as well as travel reimbursement in January and March 2019. MM had stock options in the company as well but these are now void since Carrot Insights Inc. went out of business in June 2019. RR was employed as a research intern by Carrot Insights Inc. from March 2018 to July 2018. RR was a Mitacs postdoc from February 2019 to June 2019 MH and SS declare that they have no conflicts of interests. Ethics Approval Statement: Ethical approval for this study was provided by Western University’s Human Research Ethics Board (#113322). This study involved the secondary use of de-identified data. There was no consent for this secondary data analysis. However, app users were informed of and had to accept the app’s privacy policy describing how de-identified data may be used for reporting purposes and presented in aggregate.

1947: How the American people feel about the atomic bomb

ABSTRACT Early in 1946 the Committee on the Social Aspects of Atomic Energy, of the Social Science Research Council, proposed a study of “the thinking of the American public on matters relating to the development of the atomic bomb and its effect on attitudes on international relations.” A sub-committee was formed for the planning of such a study, and funds were provided through Cornell University by the Carnegie Corporation and the Rockefeller Foundation. This report was prepared by Mrs. Eberhart at the request of Dr. Leonard S. Cottrell, Jr., chairman of the sub-committee.

Co-designing a virtual community of practice (VCoP) for maternal and child health in Burkina Faso

Abstract Background In Burkina Faso, maternity is a risk. Global Affairs Canada funded the initiative PASME-2 with World University Service of Canada, Laval University and Farm Radio International to improve maternal outcomes. A preventative program was co-developed. Phase 1 included to train the Health Ministry training coordinators. Phase 2 related to the training of nearly 100 health professionals. Phase 3 received funding from Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council in partnership with the Centre for International Cooperation in Health and Development and TIESS, a liaison and transfer expert in Québec, to support local teams towards sustainable practice changes. Results On the first objective, to describe the co-development of this living lab are presented. We share our perspective of the co-designing challenges, tools, and solutions. We will demonstrate the VCoP platform and environment. Method. A participative co-design approach, allowed the engagement of several stakeholders in the process. Results. Four workshops were organised. Seventeen maternal and child care health professionals took part in the initial 8-month development phase. Results Four steps of the six phases of Gusche innovation design are presented with associated products and results. Implementation challenges, critical decisions, role of face-to-face meetings, technology factors, digital literacy and solutions are presented. Conclusions Implementing a technology innovation in low income setting with limited access to the web and to technologies is a challenge. Its advantages are greater: access to evidenced-base care, facilitating professional development, creating a safe space and leading to emerging problem-solving collective solutions. Conceived as a capacitating environment (Sen) and supporting strength-based (Gottlieb) care through partnership, this VCoP becomes a driver of action to maintain preventative health competence and to share experiences and ways of knowing. Key messages The digital space crosses the borders and can contribute to human development and expansion of safe, evidenced-based and culturally appropriate professional practices. Working in partnerships, interprofessional and intersectoral, with public and community groups can create synergies that will unfold in greater health equity.

Perceived outcomes and SWOT analysis of a virtual community of practice in Burkina Faso

Abstract Background In Burkina Faso, maternity is a risk. Global Affairs Canada funded the initiative PASME-2 with World University Service of Canada, Laval University and Farm Radio International to improve maternal outcomes. A preventative program was co-developed in phases. Phase 3 received funding from Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council in partnership with the Centre for International Cooperation in Health and Development (CCISD) and TIESS, a liaison and transfer expert in Québec, to support local teams towards sustainable practice changes. This research aimed at documenting the partnership experience, digital literacy, perceived direct and indirect outcomes. Methods A participative co-design approach, allowed the engagement of several stakeholders in the process. Two active phases where 16 health professionals engaged actively in the VCoP, according to the final agreed-upon Constitutional Chart, are presented. The phases pilot-tested two different technology tools. Results 16 interviews post-phase 1 and 16 interviews post-phase 2 were conducted. Implementation issues as perceived by users are discussed and include: feasibility, challenges, needs, animation, relevance to care, communication and sharing, use and perspectives. Perceived outcomes focus on professional preventative practice changes, skills, family outcomes, challenges to practice integration, knowledge and practice exchanges. Conclusions The phases of experimentation demonstrate that strategies can be put in place to counter the digital literacy challenges and to engage users in new ways of communicating, sharing on the platform about health practices and taking valuable time to do it. Overcoming technology constraints is essential especially in lower resource settings. The most practical life experiences and cases lead to more engagement and innovations. Support from management and upper directorate is significant. Key messages Partnership from several stakeholders is key to implementing a VCoP. Experimenting and sharing solutions is influenced by the capacitating environment that the VCoP can provide with recognition from administration and as a professional development activity.

Uncovering a Climate Catastrophe? Media Coverage of Australia’s Black Summer Bushfires and the Revelatory Extent of the Climate Blame Frame

The Black Summer of 2019/2020 saw the forests of southeast Australia go up in flames. The fire season started early, in September 2019, and by March 2020 fires had burned over 12.6 million hectares (Werner and Lyons). The scale and severity of the fires was quickly confirmed by scientists to be "unprecedented globally" (Boer et al.) and attributable to climate change (Nolan et al.). The fires were also a media spectacle, generating months of apocalyptic front-page images and harrowing broadcast footage. Media coverage was particularly preoccupied by the cause of the fires. Media framing of disasters often seeks to attribute blame (Anderson et al.; Ewart and McLean) and, over the course of the fire period, blame for the fires was attributed to climate change in much media coverage. However, as the disaster unfolded, denialist discourses in some media outlets sought to veil this revelation by providing alternative explanations for the fires. Misinformation originating from social media also contributed to this obscuration. In this article, we investigate the extent to which media coverage of the 2019/2020 bushfires functioned both to precipitate a climate change epiphany and also to support refutation of the connection between catastrophic fires and the climate crisis.

Philosophical Questions about Teaching Philosophy: What's at Stake in High School Philosophy Education?

What is at stake in high school philosophy education, and why? Why is it a good idea to teach philosophy at this level? This essay seeks to address some issues that arose in revising the Ontario grade 12 philosophy curriculum documents, significant insights from philosophy teacher education, and some early results of recent research funded by the federal Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) in Canada. These three topics include curricular disputes, stories of transformation from philosophy student to philosophy teacher, and preliminary research findings. All underscore the importance and complexity of philosophy education, as well as its challenges and benefits, including the cross-curricular benefits philosophy education imparts to the study of other subject areas. Collectively, these serve as a springboard for asking some larger and broader philosophical questions about the teaching and learning of philosophy, and they demonstrate that this is a promising new area of study and of teaching for philosophers of education. I will raise some questions about philosophy that will help frame the next stage in the SSHRC research into the teaching and learning of philosophy in Ontario, and which I contend are new and fundamental questions to ask about philosophy itself.

0364 Sex and Race Influence Objective and Self-Report Sleep and Circadian Measures in Emerging Adults at Risk for Bipolar Spectrum Disorder

Abstract Introduction There is a critical need to understand key factors that impact sleep and circadian rhythm function for emerging adults at risk for bipolar spectrum disorder (BSD). Sex and race are common demographic factors contributing to differences in health outcomes; however, the influence of these variables on sleep and circadian rhythm patterns for emerging adults at risk for BSD has not been characterized. Methods Multiple objective and self-report facets of sleep and circadian function, including dim light melatonin onset (DLMO), and measures derived from actigraphy and sleep diaries, were assessed in a 20-day ecological momentary assessment (EMA) study of 150 emerging adults (mean ± SD, 21.8 ± 2.1y; 58.7% female; 57.9% White, 23.4% Black, 10.3% Asian or Pacific Islander, 8.0% Other ethnicity) at-risk for BSD. Bivariate Pearson correlations (two-tailed, p <.05) were conducted between the sleep and circadian measures. ANCOVAs, controlling for BSD status, were conducted to evaluate differences on sleep and circadian characteristics by sex and race. Results Males exhibited better actigraphic sleep efficiency and later DLMO phase than females, whereas females exhibited more actigraphic discrete sleep periods. White participants exhibited more actigraphy-measured total sleep time, better sleep efficiency, and fewer sleep periods, and self-reported more total sleep time and better sleep efficiency than Black participants. Conclusion We show for the first time that sex and race are significant predictors of objective and self-reported sleep and circadian rhythm measures in a large sample of emerging adults at risk for BSD participating in an EMA study. Our findings extend the existing literature to a novel clinical population and to a naturalistic setting and inform ongoing research on sex and racial health disparities in sleep and circadian rhythms. Support This work was supported by NIH R01 MH77908 and R01 MH102310; a Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council; and a National Science Foundation Graduate Student Research Fellowship.

Reconciliaction: Reconciling contestation in the academy

This article emerges from an analysis of the data from a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada-funded research project that examined the ways two universities were taking up the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and its Calls to Action. This article focuses on reconcili action as critical social action. A multi-levelled analysis of the data revealed that colonialism and violence in the academy was a theme of critical importance to research participants. This article concludes by making recommendations for ways universities can unpack and address violence and contestation to move reconciliation forward in meaningful and respectful ways.

Using a multiliteracies approach to foster critical and creative pedagogies for adult learners

Drawing upon a pilot study and a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Insight research study to explore how a multiliteracies framework may inform more critical and creative pedagogical approaches for adolescents and adults, this article begins with a brief overview of the literature on multiliteracies and then overviews the methodology used in the two research studies. Although multiliteracies has not been used frequently as a theoretical framework to inform work in adult learning contexts, this article argues that there are many benefits to this approach for adult educators to consider, particularly given the increasing need to attend to learning issues pertaining to globalization, diversity, and the impact of new technologies. Data from the interviews are combined with an analysis of the literature to explore the benefits offered by a multiliteracies approach by considering four main areas: lifelong learning and multimodalities; opportunities for engagement for English as Additional Language learners; new digital technologies and multiliteracies; and multiliteracies’ emphasis on social justice. The article concludes with a consideration of the potential for multiliteracies to inform educators working in a range of adult learning contexts.
