Background: Promoting physical activity among people living with dementia is critical to maximise physical, cognitive and social benefits; yet the lack of knowledge, skills and confidence among health professionals, informal care partners and people with dementia deters participation. As the initial phase of a larger feasibility study, co-design was employed to develop a new model of community care, to facilitate the physical activity participation of older people living with mild dementia.
Methods: Co-design methodology was utilised with nine stakeholders (with experience in referring to or providing physical activity programs and/or contributing to policy and program planning) over three workshops plus individual interviews with four care partners of people with dementia.

Aims/hypothesis: UK standard care for type 2 diabetes is structured diabetes education, with no effects on HbA, small, short-term effects on weight and low uptake. We evaluated whether remotely delivered tailored diabetes education combined with commercial behavioural weight management is cost-effective compared with current standard care in helping people with type 2 diabetes to lower their blood glucose, lose weight, achieve remission and improve cardiovascular risk factors.
Methods: We conducted a pragmatic, randomised, parallel two-group trial.
Although the comparison between two great Victorian masterminds, Sigmund Freud and Sherlock Holmes, and their respective methods, is in itself not new (see for example Ginzburg 1979, 1980; Brooks 1984; Marcus 1984; Shephard 1985; Spence 1987), it merits further investigation, as it raises important questions regarding the nature and structure of clinical evidence, clinical epistemology, and clinical narration. In this article, the author: refers both to the common cultural background of these two projects (including the of the modern world and the complicated dialog between rationality and imagination) and their common epistemological situation; analyses their and , and characterizes both Holmes and Freud as and . Their operandi are described as hermeneutical procedures, methodologically similar to Charles Sanders Peirce's .

Department of Psychology, University of British Columbia, Okanagan, Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada.
Introduction: Adolescents actively explore future imaginings as they prepare for major educational, work, and personal transitions. Although family members may support exploration of imagined futures, adults outside adolescents' kin network provide access to resources not supplied within the family. The purpose of this study was to understand how adolescents actively draw on social resources of nonfamilial adults relative to their imagined futures.
