One impediment to expanding the prevalence and quality of community-engaged research is a shortage of instructive resources for collaboratively designing research instruments and analyzing data with community members. This article describes how a consortium of community residents, grassroots community organizations, and academic and public institutions implemented collaborative research design and data analysis processes as part of a participatory action research (PAR) study investigating the relationship between neighborhoods and health in the greater Boston area. We report how nine different groups of community residents were engaged in developing a multi-dimensional survey instrument, generating and testing hypotheses, and interpreting descriptive statistics and preliminary findings. We conclude by reflecting on the importance of balancing planned strategies for building and sustaining resident engagement with improvisational facilitation that is responsive to residents’ characteristics, interests and needs in the design and execution of collaborative research design and data analysis processes.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship of two distinct variants of dispositional shame (internal and external shame) with collaborative, purpose-driven aspects of the patient–provider relationship (working alliance) and patient satisfaction. The aim of this research was to conduct a preliminary investigation into the relevance of dispositional shame in a general healthcare population. Design/methodology/approach In total, 127 community members (mean age 25.9 years) who reported that they had regularly seen a GP over the past year were recruited at an Australian university. Participants were asked to reflect on their relationship with their GP, and completed instruments assessing various domains of shame, as well as working alliance and patient satisfaction. Findings Non-parametric correlations were examined to determine the direction and strength of relationships, as well as conducting mediation analyses where applicable. Small, negative correlations were evident between external shame and working alliance. Both external and internal shame measures were also negatively correlated with patient satisfaction. Finally, the relationship of external shame to patient satisfaction was partially mediated by working alliance. Practical implications Both the reported quality of patient–provider working alliance, and level of patient satisfaction are related to levels of dispositional shame in patients, and working alliance may act as a mediator for this relationship. Originality/value The findings from this preliminary study suggest that internal and external shame are important factors to consider in the provision of medical care to maximise the quality of patient experience and working alliance.

Corruption is a behavior that cannot be socially or religiously justified. Interestingly, despite the corruption is prohibited in all religions in Indonesia, the index of corruption remains high as reported by the results of surveys of national and international institutions. Besides, research on this matter showed inconsistency in the relationships between religiosity and corrupt behavior. This research re-examined the relationship between religiosity and anti-corruption intentions and determined the moderating effect of gratitude as an intervening variable. Gratitude is one of the strongest religious values which is expected to reduce ones’ intention to do corruptions. The research was conducted using a correlational research design, involving 92 population in an educational foundation in Garut regency, West Java. Data were collected using the GRAT short form to measure gratitude and the Muslim Religiosity Scale (MRC) was employed to measure religiosity. Whereas, Anti-Corruption Intention Scale was used to measure the anti-corruption intention. The results of data analysis showed that religiosity and anti-corruption intentions were positively correlated (F= 154.1, p = .001, R2= .631), and gratitude moderated the increase in the relationship (R2= .668). Therefore, gratitude was regarded as an intervening variable that strengthened the correlation between religiosity and anti-corruption behavior by 3.7%.

AbstrakKualitas udara sangat dipengaruhi aktivitas yang dilakukan oleh manusia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kualitas udara PM10, PM2,5, SO2 dan NO2 di dalam rumah di wilayah Cilegon serta aktivitas penghuni rumah dan gangguan pernapasan yang dialami penghuni rumah. Metode analisis data yang digunakan adalah uji statistik regresi linear untuk mengetahui hubungan antara kualitas udara PM10, PM2,5, SO2 dan NO2 dengan aktivitas penghuni rumah dan gangguan pernapasan. Penelitian ini ditemukan 9 rumah memiliki konsentrasi PM10 dan PM2,5 melebihi baku mutu yang ditentukan. Sebagian besar penghuni melakukan aktivitas merokok di dalam rumah dan kegiatan membakar sampah di pekarangan rumah, sehingga sebagian besar penghuni rumah mengalami gangguan pernapasan. Pada analisis regresi diketahui bahwa aktivitas penghuni rumah mempengaruhi konsentrasi PM10 sebanyak 24%, konsentrasi PM2,5 sebanyak 12%, konsentrasi SO2 sebanyak 2% dan konsentrasi NO2 sebanyak 4% serta konsentrasi zat polutan tersebut mempengaruhi gangguan pernapasan penghuni rumah sebanyak 25%. Aktivitas merokok di dalam rumah berhubungan dengan konsentrasi PM10 di udara dan gangguan pernapasan yang dialami oleh penghuni rumah berhubungan dengan konsentrasi SO2 di dalam rumah. Penelitian ini  memberi penyadaran bahwa kualitas udara di dalam rumah penting diperhatikan untuk menjaga kesehatan penghuni rumah serta untuk memberi masukan bagi penghuni rumah agar mengurangi aktivitas yang dapat mengganggu kualitas udara di ruangan tertutup.Abstract The air quality is influnced by human activities. The aim of this research is to assess air quality of PM10, PM2,5, SO2, and NO2 in houses around Cilegon and occupant activities as well as respiratory disorders risk resulting from it. This research uses statistic test linear regression for data analysis to find the relationship between the air quality and the activity of house occupants and respiratory disorders. It was found that 9 houses having PM10 and PM2,5 concentration exceeds the quality standard. Moreover, most of the occupants smoke in their house and burn their waste and also have respiratory disorders. From the regression analysis, it was found that occupant activities inside their house impacted to 24% of PM10, 12% of PM2,5, 4% of SO2 and 4% of NO2 concentration, and those pollutant concentrations impacted to 25% of residents respiratory disorders. The smoking activity related to PM10 concentration while respiratory disorders related to SO2 concentration in the house. Those results can give a basis thought for further research which identify the influence of the air quality inside a house to other health disorders. This research also provides awareness that the quality of air in the house is important to take care of the health of the occupants and to reduce activities that can interfere with the air quality in the house or enclosed room.
