“…The same procedure was utilised with the remaining 11 interview datasets and each datasets' identified patterns were continuously crosschecked, refined and compared until trends emerged. These trends were coded and continually abstracted to draw out themes and subthemes (see Barker, 2002;Braun & Clarke, 2006;Dey, 1993;Liamputtong & Ezzy, 2005;Marks & Yardley, 2004;Neuman, 2006). Question 4 interview response data were analysed using the systematic phenomenological approach of inspecting and synthesising its contained 'meant' and 'experienced' meanings (Bednall, 2006).…”

The shift to inclusive education within Australia has resulted in increasing numbers of students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) being placed in mainstream educational settings. This move has created new demands on teachers who are not necessarily trained to meet the challenge. Therefore, the present study aimed to develop an understanding of how 12 Western Australian primary school (K–7) teachers adapted to the challenge of having a student with ASD in their mainstream classroom. Using an interpretivist framework, data from semistructured interviews revealed that teachers perceived a need to first recognise and accept the challenges associated with having a student with ASD in their mainstream classroom before they could move to accessing avenues of support. The implications of this finding are discussed.

“…The interviews were audio-recorded and data were transcribed. Using an inductive approach, the data were analysed manually, using the template analysis technique (King and Horrocks, 2011), described as a particular way of thematically analysing the data (Braun and Clarke, 2013;King and Horrocks, 2011;Mark and Yardley, 2004), systematically identifying themes and patterns of meaning, or meaning-making process (King and Horrocks, 2011).…”

Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to provide a new perspective by conceptualising country of origin (COO) from a management perspective, identifying the impact different COO constructs have in the context of fashion retailer and manufacturer businesses.Design/methodology/approach -This qualitative study comprises a series of in-depth interviews with key informants from large-scale fashion retailers and manufacturers in the UK. Findings -The major findings of this research demonstrate that COO is considered a strategic business imperative but manifests in a variety of ways depending on brand positioning, long-term strategic plans, expertise, and brand values etc. Originality/value -This research presents a new perspective on the COO construct, addressing it from a management rather than consumer perspective. It argues that COO can be considered as a strategic dimension, which is manifested in a variety of ways. COO has been extensively researched from a consumer point of view but this research takes a new approach by presenting findings from a managerial point of view, with fashion manufacturing and retail branding as the context. Research implications -

“…To analyze the differences between the psychosocial variables, over the psychosocial clinical pathway of breast cancer, we resorted to the use of Friedman's ANOVA by ranks, a non-parametric method for comparing populations from paired samples, which enables the study of a single factor in two or more repeated samples [38,50].…”

Distressing events can lead to negative outcomes, such as post-traumatic stress symptoms; however, they can also lead to positive outcomes, being an experience of post-traumatic growth or benefit finding. In the context of cancer, the positive thinking may impact on important psychological outcomes, including depression, anxiety, positive well-being and health behaviors. There are few longitudinal studies in this area. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the psychosocial clinical pathway of Portuguese women with breast cancer (time 1 "diagnosis", time 2 "surgery" and time 3 "treatments"). A total of 30 women diagnosed with breast cancer were evaluated, on 3 separate occasions, in relation to: distress, emotional control, neuroticism, social support, body image perception, coping and quality of life (QoL). The non-parametric Friedman test was used to compare the variables on each occasion. The changes' analysis of the psychosocial pathway of breast cancer, illustrated the slight impact of breast cancer as a negative life event. These results show a good adjustment at all levels (emotional, social and physically). The levels of neuroticism and body image perception indicated significant changes throughout time. The results indicate that finding positive meaning in response to a distressing event, such as breast cancer, is psychologically protective and, thus, may indirectly influence the long-term occurrence of depressive symptoms and impaired QoL. Considering the rapidly growing population of Portuguese breast cancer survivors, it is important to better understand their treatment and survival experiences in further studies.
