This is a set of guiding principles for more-than-human collaboration in research-creation. As slippery terms with unclear boundaries, we must form practical and theoretical protocols to navigate multispecies activities that benefit the emerging episteme. To design inclusive frameworks for artistic experimentation, we must recognize other-than-humans as contributors rather than objects of study. Key concepts are established around valuing difference, agency, and care within postnatural arrangements to decentre the “human” in “more-than-human.” These principles are applicable to students, scholars, artists, makers, practitioners, and anyone else engaging with research-based art.

Objectives: Burnout is of international concern among social workers, and recently moral distress (MD) has been identified among this professional group. Little is known about how burnout and MD experiences differ between social workers serving children and families (CF) and social workers in other domains. Less is known about the potential relationship between burnout and MD across these subgroups of social workers. Methods: This brief report examines if the levels of, and associations, between MD and burnout differ between a sample of Finnish CF social workers (n = 199) compared social workers in other domains (n = 168). Results: Based on multivariate analyses of covariance and hierarchical regression analyses, we found that working with children and families did not moderate the associations between MD and burnout. However, working with children and families was associated with higher levels of exhaustion, MD frequency, and distress. MD frequency and MD distress were also both significant predictors of burnout among the sample of social workers. CF social workers had higher levels of exhaustion compared to the other social workers. Implications: MD may be an important factor influencing the wellbeing of CF social workers. Organizations employing CF social workers are encouraged to investigate potential sources of MD and set workplace policies to reduce risks. More research examining causes of, and identifying effective remedies to, MD is warranted.

Objectives: Adults with a history of childhood maltreatment report problems with emotion regulation (ER) and parenting, which can contribute to maladaptive outcomes in offspring. The following narrative review consists of a theoretical and empirical synthesis of the literature examining child maltreatment, emotion regulation, and parenting, with an emphasis on parental emotion socialization. Method: Building upon the literature contained in the review, we developed a novel conceptual model that elucidates some of the mechanisms involved in the intergenerational transmission of emotion dysregulation among mothers with a history of childhood maltreatment. Taking into account risk and protective factors (e.g., socio-economic status, polyvictimization, teenage motherhood, access to social supports), our conceptual model highlights both direct (e.g., social learning) and indirect (e.g., ER difficulties) mechanisms through which child maltreatment contributes to problems with parental emotion socialization and ER difficulties in the next generation. Implications: Directions for future research and implications for intervention will be discussed with an emphasis on preventing the continuity of maladaptive parenting by promoting the development of parents’ ER abilities in a trauma-informed, resilience-focused framework.

Resilience is core to improving Canadians’ mental health. It is therefore important to expand our understanding of key resilience elements – individuals assets, relational and contextual resources - as they develop throughout the life course; as they relate to Canadian heterogeneity, including Indigenous, immigrant and refugee, African-Canadian and LGBTQ2 communities; and, in the context of chronic/daily stress as well as extreme stress, trauma, violence and marginalised socioeconomic settings. Meaning-making frameworks and processes appear as essential mechanisms in the enactment of personal agency, guiding the use of resilience assets and resources to achieve and maintain positive mental health. This brief report shares findings of a comprehensive literature review, discussing their relevance to children and youth, concluding with implications for related programs and policy.

Background: With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, a reliance upon telehealth patient visits emerged. Many medical schools use early clinical experiences in the pre-clerkship years to provide opportunities to practice evolving clinical skills and broaden classroom learning. However, little is known about the value of telehealth visits during the pre-clerkship years. Therefore, the purpose of the current study was to determine what student learning experiences were with telehealth patient encounters during early clinical experiences. Methods: In this qualitative study, we used a descriptive phenomenological approach. We interviewed medical students using Zoom to gather their lived experiences. We grouped key findings into themes. Results: Seventeen medical students participated in the study. Key challenges included the loss of body language and visual cues leading to challenges with rapport building, the inability to perform physical examinations, and less involvement and independent practice of skills. However, positive aspects include good opportunities for history taking and benefits to note-taking. Mentorship with preceptors remained either positive or similar to in-person experiences. Conclusion: Since telehealth remains an important part of healthcare, it is crucial to train learners in telehealth clinical environments alongside standard in-person environments. However, while both challenges and benefits exist with telehealth clinical visits for junior learners, active learning processes, the use of video augmentation and robust faculty development strategies remain important to increase the educational value of these visits.

This special issue of Matrix: A Journal for Matricultural Studies examines the lives of men from matricultural perspectives. Matriculture is a concept derived from the interpretive anthropology of Clifford Geertz, who developed his cultural systems theory based on an understanding of the symbolic elements that constitute human cultures. Marie-Françoise Guédon, Linnéa Rowlatt, and Angela Sumegi have further defined matriculture as those aspects of a cultural system unique to women. The articles, interviews, and book reviews in this special issue illustrate two trends that warrant further investigation. First, men play crucial roles in the creation, performance, and maintenance of matricultures. Second, the interviews published in this special issue indicate that women in Indigenous societies have historically played essential roles in preserving, revitalizing, and decolonizing their cultures. Moreover, women continue this vital work in today's world, regardless of whether they hail from societies that possess matrilineal, patrilineal, or bilateral kinship systems.
