People with disabilities and as women and girls face barriers to accessing water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services and facilities that fully meet their needs, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Women and girls with disabilities experience double discrimination. WASH policies should support and uphold the concepts of disability and gender inclusion, and they should also act as a guide to inform WASH programs and service delivery. Using a modified version of the EquiFrame content analysis tool, this study investigated the inclusion of 21 core concepts of human rights of people with disabilities and women and girls in 16 WASH policy documents and seven end-line program reports from Bangladesh and Cambodia. Included documents typically focused on issues of accessibility and neglected wider issues, including empowerment and support for caregivers. The rights of children and women with disabilities were scarcely focused on specifically, despite their individual needs, and there was a disconnect in the translation of certain rights from policy to practice. Qualitative research is needed with stakeholders in Bangladesh and Cambodia to investigate the inclusion and omission of core rights of people with disabilities, and women and girls, as well as the factors contributing to the translation of rights from policy to practice.

It is estimated that annually 100,000 to 300,000 youth are at risk for sex trafficking; a commercial sex act induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or any such act where the person induced to perform such an act is younger than 18 years of age. Increasingly, such transactions are occurring online via Internet-based sites that serve the commercial sex industry. Commercial sex transactions involving trafficking are illegal; thus, Internet discussions between those involved must be veiled. Even so, transactions around sex trafficking do occur. Within these transactions are innuendos that provide one avenue for detecting potential activity. The purpose of this study is to identify linguistic indicators of potential commercial sexual exploitation within the online comments of men posted on an Internet site. Six hundred sixty-six posts from five Midwest cities and 363 unique members were analyzed via content analysis. Three main indicators were found: the presence of youth or desire for youthfulness, presence of pimps, and awareness of vulnerability. These findings begin a much-needed dialogue on uncovering online risks of commercial sexual exploitation and support the need for further research on Internet indicators of sex trafficking.

Background. Modern science needs to define the substitute family as a psychological and pedagogical phenomenon. One of the reasons for this scientific interest is the policy of deinstitutionalization – the state policy for the development of family forms of life for orphans and children left without parental care that focuses on potential parents, the values of motherhood, fatherhood and childhood. Aim. The article aims to identify the structural and functional featuresof the substitute family and typical difficulties that arise when communicating with a foster child. Materials and methods: 1) the study involved 100 parents participating in the monitoring support of the substitute family. All parents have higher education, are married, have the average age of 40 years, have no more than two own children, adopted children have own relatives; the study was conducted during a year; 2) the essay “I am a parent” was used; 3) methods of mathematical statistics were used, namely the Statistica 6.0 for Windows for processing the data obtained as a result of text content analysis. Results. The structural and functional features of the substitute family are indicated: open external borders, open circulation of information, lack of polarity in the characteristic of intrafamily emotional ties, a large number of specific (non-normative) tasks that require to be solved in the parent system, the need to take care of the child without mutual relationship, the parents' guilt due to dissatisfaction with the results of their educational activities, the establishment of communication between the child and his/her own relatives, the appearance of a sibling subsystem; a number of typical difficulties in substitute families are identified.

Curriculum analysis is a core component of curriculum renewal. Traditional approaches to curriculum analysis are manual, slow and subjective, but some studies have suggested that text analysis might usefully be employed for exploration of curriculum. This concise paper outlines a pilot use case of content analytics to support curriculum review and analysis. I have co-opted Quantext – a relatively user-friendly text analysis tool designed to help educators explore student writing – for analysis of the text content of the 17 courses in our online master’s program. Quantext computed descriptive metrics and readability indices for each course and identified top keywords and ngrams per course. Compilation and comparison of these revealed frequent curricular topics and networks of thematic relationships between courses, in ways that both individual educators and curriculum committees can interpret and use for decision-making. Future Quantext features will allow even more sophisticated identification of curricular gaps and redundancies.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the following topics. (a) What are the specific stuttering moments that trigger anticipatory completions? (b) How do people who stutter (PWS) perceive anticipatory completions of their turn by people who do not stutter (PWNS)? (c) What are the expectations of PWS from PWNS in a conversation between them? Method: In this qualitative study, the researchers used grounded theory to help analyze the collected data. The data sources were 26 observations, conversations, and interviews. A similar version could be used in the body of the text when the study is described. Results: Five out of six participants experienced anticipatory completions during stuttering moments. Hypothesis 1, “Anticipatory completions by PWNS occur at specific stuttering moments,” was accepted. Hypothesis 2, “PWS have negative perceptions and feelings of anticipatory completions by PWNS,” was not verified during interviews with three participants; therefore, the researchers revised Hypothesis 2 into “PWS do not always have negative perceptions and feelings of anticipatory completions by PWNS.” Five out of six participants expected PWNS to let them finish what they are saying; therefore, the researchers accepted Hypothesis 3, “PWS expect PWNS to let them finish what they are saying.” Conclusion: The main findings of this study include verification that the participants used anticipatory completions at specific stuttering moments and nonstuttering moments in one case, PWS do not always have negative perceptions and feelings about anticipatory completions by PWNS, and PWS expect PWNS to let them finish what they are saying.
