How An Ijes Working Group Grappled With The Complexities Of Three Letters—Dei—With The Goal To Broaden Inclusion And Representation In Exercise Science Research, Dustin W. Davis, Matthew J. Garver, Jafra Thomas, James W. Navalta, Shannon Siegel, Joel D. Reece, Jill M. Maples

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 17(8): 852-860, 2024. A self-study of International Journal of Exercise Science (IJES) publications from 2008 through 2021 revealed a sex-data gap in participant and corresponding author representation. This finding prompted the creation of the IJES Working Group for Opportunity, Representation, and Diverse Perspectives. We are a collaborative team of authors, reviewers, and editors, spanning both rural and urban teaching- and research-focused institutions, who assembled regularly starting in September 2023.

Bimanual Coordination In Individuals Post-Stroke: Constraints, Rehabilitation Approaches And Measures: Systematic Review, Yutong Liu, Eryk Przysucha, Taryn Klarner, Carlos Zerpa, Keshini Madara Marasinghe

International Journal of Exercise Science

International Journal of Exercise Science 17(3): 831-851, 2024. To couple or not to couple is a dilemma for the CNS when performing bimanual goal-directed actions. Numerous interacting individual and task-related constraints contribute to the issue of effective movement coordination, and their impact on the emerging actions must be inferred from valid methodologies. This is particularly important when examining coordination in individuals with stroke undergoing rehabilitation. The purpose of this review was to identify the different constraints that may impact inter-limb coupling, and the rehabilitation approaches implemented to enhance those actions. Also, the measures incorporated to examine the effects of rehabilitation …

Rigid Rideshares And The Driver Flexibility Myth, Seth Goldstein

St. John's Law Review

(Excerpt)

In 2018, Uber, Lyft, and similar organizations spent $224 million to ensure that Proposition 22 ("Prop. 22") passed in California, reclassifying gig workers as independent contractors, but with some rights not typically guaranteed to independent contractors. Through the most expensive ballot measure in U.S. history at that point, Uber and Lyft argued that to preserve flexibility for drivers, they must remain as independent contractors under the law. However, Prop. 22 did not increase driver benefits nor provide any assurances of flexibility. Many workers in California "regret casting their ballots for Prop. 22" and "feel deceived" by Uber and Lyft. …

Protecting Unsanctioned Street Art Under The Visual Artists Rights Act Of 1990, Thomas Goddard

St. John's Law Review

(Excerpt)

Before 2013, artists and art enthusiasts would flock to a dilapidated building in Long Island City to view and engage with a vast collection of graffiti and street art murals. The site was filled with over two decades' worth of murals created by legendary street artists such as "Blade" and "Lady Pink." The building, with artists having free reign to paint on the walls of the 200,000 square foot space, became a mecca for graffiti and public art. The community would come in droves to experience the vibrant art and watch performances by rappers and dancers from around the …
