Single parent families are at high risk of financial hardship which may impact on psychological wellbeing. This study explored the wellbeing 15 single parents.

Abstract An online diary study was performed to investigate deception across different media. One hundred and four individuals participated in the study, with 76 completing diaries. Individuals were most likely lie on telephone. Planned lies, which participants also rated serious, more told via SMS (short message service) text messaging. Most lies people felt closest to. The feature‐based model provides a better account of deceptions reported by than do media richness theory or social...
This research expands on the work of Goffman (1959) in seeking to examine how players Massively Multiplayer Online games (MMOs) use virtual environments as a mechanism explore their own offline identity, through multiple characters and gender swapping. Using Thematic Analysis four interviews, five themes have been identified which will inform larger Grounded Theory study. It is argued that these provide foundation for construction solid theoretical constructs future discussion all...
We present laboratory experiments that investigate the structure and flow characteristics of gravity currents travelling through an array roughness elements. The elements are comparable height to current such flows rather than over it. frontal velocity density measured as transitions from flowing along a smooth bed array, then back bed. find that, upon entering decelerates changes head tail typical currents, wedge shape. A model is presented explains deceleration change in shape based on...
