Statistical analysis plan for a cluster randomised controlled trial to compare screening, feedback and intervention for child anxiety problems to usual school practice: identifying Child Anxiety Through Schools-identification to intervention (iCATS-i2i) by Ball, S, Reardon, T, Creswell, C, Taylor, L, Brown, P, Ford, T, Gray, A, Hill, C, Jasper, B, Larkin, M, Macdonald, I, Morgan, F, Pollard, J, Sancho, M, Sniehotta, FF, Spence, SH, Stainer, J, Stallard, P, Violato, M, Ukoumunne, OC

“…<p><strong>Background</strong></p> The Identifying Child Anxiety Through Schools-identification to intervention (iCATS-i2i) trial is being conducted to establish whether ‘screening and intervention’, consisting of usual school practice plus a pathway comprising screening, feedback and a brief parent-led online intervention (OSI: Online Support and Intervention for child anxiety), bring clinical and health economic benefits compared to usual school practice and assessment only — ‘usual school practice’, for children aged 8–9 years in the following: (1) the ‘target population’, who initially screen positive for anxiety problems according to a two-item parent-report child anxiety questionnaire — iCATS-2, and (2) the ‘total population’, comprising all children in participating classes. …”

The knowledge gap hypothesis in Singapore : the roles of socioeconomic status, mass media, and interpersonal discussion on public knowledge of the H1N1 flu pandemic by Ho, Shirley S.

“…This study applies the knowledge gap hypothesis to examine the direct and interactive influence of socioeconomic status, mass media, and interpersonal discussion on public knowledge of the H1N1 flu pandemic in Singapore. Using a nationally representative random digit-dialing telephone survey of 1,055 adult Singaporeans, results show that attention to newspapers was not associated with a widened knowledge gap about the H1N1 pandemic between the high and low socioeconomic status individuals. …”

Christianity’s role in colonial and revolutionary Haiti 1 (Article Commentary) by Edwards, Erica Johnson

“…In the lead up to her confirmation, while senators and the media focused heavily on her Catholic faith, some on social media drew attention to the two Haitian children she and her husband adopted following the 2010 earthquake in Haiti.2 The connections between Coney-Barret’s Christianity and the Haitian earthquake recalled Pat Robertson’s controversial claim that the earthquake was caused by a Haitian “pact with the devil” during the Haitian Revolution.3 Whatever else one might say about Robertson’s comments, they show his ignorance of the important but little-known role Christianity and the Catholic clergy played in eighteenth-century colonial Haiti.…”
