Following the warm hearted invitation of the confer- ence president Bruno Quintard and the local organising team, the Francophone Association of Health Psychologists and the Psychology Department of the University Bordeaux Segalen, we are returning to the beautiful port city of Bordeaux. The programme of the conference reflects the rapid development of health psychological science in the EHPS. The 27th conference will be a showcase of cutting edge research, theoreti- cally innovative studies, rigorous evaluations, and work that matters; addressing key issues in the psychology of health and health care, designed to have impact on both the development of scien- tific knowledge and the well-being and care provision of the population. The preconference work- shops reflect the direction of scientific development in health psychology covering theory and practice, dissemination of science, systematic reviewing and implementation of interventions, thus covering the process of research from conception to implementation. I would like to thank the facilitators for sharing their expertise and the Synergy team for organising these excellent pre-con- ference workshops. Further pre-conference highlights are the workshops of CREATE (EHPS sub division promoting education and collaboration for early career researchers working in the field of health psychology; www.ehps.net/create) and SYNERGY (Collaboration and Innovation in theory and research in the EHPS; www.ehps.net/synergy). The CREATE workshop ‘Intensive longitudi- nal methods in health psychology’ addresses the timely need in health psychology to better under- stand changes and intra-individual variability over time and will be facilitated by Gertraud Stadler, Niall Bolger (Columbia University, NY) and Jean-Philippe Laurenceau (University of Delaware, DE). Gerjo Kok and Rob Ruiter will facilitate the Synergy workshop ‘Methods for changing environmental conditions for health: Influencing organisations, key actors and stakehold- ers’. This workshop demonstrates how far health psychology has come: Our science has gone beyond the mostly individual based research we have seen in the past and has thoroughly progressed towards the translational research agenda. I am excited about the excellent programme that the scientific committee chaired by Holger Schmid has brought together for this conference. Four outstanding keynote speakers; Mark Con- ner (UK), Lutz Jäncke (Switzerland), Stan Maes (the Netherlands) and Crystal Park (USA) will highlight current developments in the areas of health behaviour, brain science and self-regulation, quality of life and care and religion. A look through the programme shows numerous excellent sessions, symposia, posters and individual papers leaving delegates with an excellent cross section of quality research in the EHPS. The conference theme is Well-being, Quality of Life and Care- giving which is reflected in a range of presentations of highly applied and interdisciplinary work. Downloaded by [Universiteit Twente] at 01:07 27 November 2013 Applied health psychology is an interdisciplinary science. The EHPS is international. The organ- isers received almost 950 submissions from 64 countries! We welcome the delegates and speakers from all over the world. We are delighted that you are contributing actively to the quality of our conference and we are delighted about the opportunity to further our knowledge in collaboration. In addition to an excellent scientific programme, EHPS conferences are wonderful opportuni- ties to meet old and new friends, network, discuss and exchange ideas. Many international research collaborations have started at EHPS conferences and people have made friends and met inspiring acquaintances. A delightful social programme, the French summer, companionship and the cultural, culinary, geographic and architectural highlights will contribute to the experience and help to inspire and entertain before and after the scientific sessions. I would like to thank on behalf of the EC, the colleagues who have been working so hard to prepare this conference for us. Merci beaucoup to Bruno Quintard and the local organisers, the Psychology & Health 3 scientific committee, Paul Norman, the EHPS liaison officer, the organisers of CREATE and Synergy and of course, to you, the delegates and presenters. Enjoy the conference!

A conference theme has to be well chosen to bring together researchers from the field of health psychology to share and stimulate work in this field. There are several indicators showing, how well this main theme was chosen. The 2012 European health report from WHO (World Health Organization 2013) has the subti- tle: “Charting the way to well-being”. Health figures from this report are clear. In Europe most people die because of non-communicable diseases (80% of deaths in 2009). Morbidity and dis- ability in association with these diseases can be attributed to key areas for intervention such as nutrition, physical activity and addictive substances, mainly to address risk factors such as over- weight and obesity, high cholesterol and high blood pressure, and alcohol and tobacco use. Health psychologists have studied and implemented theory- and research-based practices to modify these risk factors and innovative interventions heave been developed. In addition, the tradition of health psychology is to look at outcomes linked to health and not only at illness. The report says: “Nev- ertheless, full agreement on or a static understanding of what well-being means is needed to develop ways to improve well-being and eventually to measure and monitor it.” (p. 124). The conference track “Well-being and Quality of Life” may provide some insight into this question. This track is defined as “Positive aspects of a person’s life, such as positive emotions and life satisfaction as well as physical, mental, emotional and social functioning”. The “Well- being and Quality of Life” track received the highest number of submissions (158) and in the pro- gramme sessions on well-being and quality of life are being held on every day. With almost 950 submissions from 64 countries the 27th annual conference of the European Health Psychology Society is again very successful. Even though this is a European conference, participants come from all over the world. Most submissions came from the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Portugal. If one attended all the presentations, one would need 30 days with 8 hours of non-stop listening! The conference introduces for the first time a new format for discussing methodological issues.

  • Never Again: International Intervention in Bosnia and Herzegovina1
    Never again: 1 International intervention in Bosnia and Herzegovina July 2017 David Harland2 1 This study is one of a series commissioned as part of an ongoing UK Government Stabilisation Unit project relating to elite bargains and political deals. The project is exploring how national and international interventions have and have not been effective in fostering and sustaining political deals and elite bargains; and whether or not these political deals and elite bargains have helped reduce violence, increased local, regional and national stability and contributed to the strengthening of the relevant political settlement. This is a 'working paper' and the views contained within do not necessarily represent those of HMG. 2 Dr David Harland is Executive Director of the Centre for Humanitarian Dialogue. He served as a witness for the Prosecution at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in the cases of The Prosecutor versus Slobodan Milošević, The Prosecutor versus Radovan Karadžić, The Prosecutor versus Ratko Mladić, and others. Executive summary The war in Bosnia and Herzegovina was the most violent of the conflicts which accompanied the break- up of Yugoslavia, and this paper explores international engagement with that war, including the process that led to the signing of the Dayton Peace Agreement. Sarajevo and Srebrenica remain iconic symbols of international failure to prevent and end violent conflict, even in a small country in Europe. They are seen as monuments to the "humiliation" of Europe and the UN and the

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Among the different available wind sources, i.e. in situ measurements, numeric weather models, the retrieval of wind speed from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data is one of the most widely used methods, since it can give high wind resolution cells. For this purpose, one can find two prin- cipal approaches: via electromagnetic (EM) models and empirical (EP) models. In both approaches, the Geophysical Model Functions (GMFs) are used to describe the relation of radar scattering, wind speed, and the geometry of observations. By knowing radar scattering and geometric para- meters, it is possible to invert the GMFs to retrieve wind speed. It is very interesting to compare wind speed estimated by the EM models, general descriptions of radar scattering from sea surface, to the one estimated by the EP models, specific descriptions for the inverse problem. Based on the comparisons, some ideas are proposed to improve the performance of the EM models for wind speed retrieval.

The Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission's Resolution XI-17 on Ocean Sci- ences in Support of Living Resources specifies that programs should be formulated in applied ocean research related to fishery problems. In this report we identify some types of needed research. We discuss the relative importance of the various life history stages to the question of resource variation regarding difticulties in sampling or studying on relevant scales. Our report stresses identification and accounting for causal climate-driven ambient variations. Some testable hypotheses relating the larval stages are given as examples of useful research.

E-mail: [email protected] TRANSPORTATION SCALE 2 Abstract One popular concept to capture the experience of being immersed into the world of a story is the concept of transportation. This paper examines the factorial validity of the Transportation Scale (TS) and introduces a short and psychometrically sound alternative for the assessment of transportation. Exploratory bifactor modeling in Study 1 (N = 179) provided support for the hypothesized factor structure of the original TS with three facets and a general transportation factor. Based on these analyses, a six-item short version of the scale, the Transportation Scale- Short Form (TS-SF), was developed. Study 2 (N = 131 and N = 246) as well as Study 3 (N = 301) corroborated the short form’s factorial structure, reliability, and validity.

These individuals were historically known as peasants and are now more com- monly referred to as smallholders, small-scale farmers or family farmers. What happens to their livelihoods as land under their control is allocated to investors? Promoters of LSLAs stress that when land acquisitions are preceded by community consultations, there may be synergism between investors’ activities and local livelihoods. Accordingly, local farmers are expected to gain from, for example, closer ties to the market and new livelihood alternatives such as formal employment. Differently, critical voices con- tend that despite sound legislation on the matter, in practice LSLAs constitute drivers of dispossession, being therefore disguised land grabs. This research seeks to fill a knowledge gap on the immediate local livelihood implications of LSLAs.
