The understanding, application and influence of complexity in national physical activity policy-making (2022)
Journal Article
Rigby, B., Dodd-Reynolds, C., & Oliver, E. (2022). The understanding, application and influence of complexity in national physical activity policy-making. Health Research Policy and Systems, 20, Article 59. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12961-022-00864-9

Complexity theory and systems-thinking are increasingly popular in physical activity (PA) research and policy discourse. The impact of this perspective shift, across many sectors, may be underwhelming. We explore why, by focusing on how these concept...

Premature mortality in a population‐based cohort of autistic adults in Canada (2022)
Journal Article
Lunsky, Y., Lai, M., Balogh, R., Chung, H., Durbin, A., Jachyra, P., Tint, A., Weiss, J., & Lin, E. (2022). Premature mortality in a population‐based cohort of autistic adults in Canada. Autism Research, 15(8), 1550-1559. https://doi.org/10.1002/aur.2741

Research from different countries suggests that autistic adults are more likely to die prematurely than non-autistic adults, but these studies do not always investigate male and female individuals separately and do not consider whether this pattern i...

Reducing energy availability in male endurance athletes: a randomized trial with a three-step energy reduction (2022)
Journal Article
Jurov, I., Keay, N., & Rauter, S. (2022). Reducing energy availability in male endurance athletes: a randomized trial with a three-step energy reduction. Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 19(1), https://doi.org/10.1080/15502783.2022.2065111

BACKGROUND Low energy availability (EA) can be detrimental for athlete health. Currently, it is not known what the threshold for low EA in men is, and what effects it may have on performance. METHODS This study was set to determine potential effects... Read More about Reducing energy availability in male endurance athletes: a randomized trial with a three-step energy reduction.
