On behalf of the Deakin community, I would
like to offer my warm congratulations on

A Deakin qualification is a valuable asset
and will assist you as you make your way

Deakin is still a relatively young university
by national and international standards, but
is a strong and dynamic university, making
a distinctive contribution to higher education
nationally and internationally. Deakin ranks in
the top 3 per cent of the world’s universities
in each of the three major global rankings and
ranks 50 in the QS ranking of universities less
than 50 years.
This Graduation Ceremony celebrates
an important milestone. It gives us the
opportunity to recognise your achievements
publicly, and it also provides an opportunity
for you to acknowledge the support you

during your time at University.
For those of you who are receiving your
first Deakin University award today, this
Graduation Ceremony marks your transition
from student to alumnus. It marks the

CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE
FROM THE VICE-CHANCELLOR
Congratulations! You are now a graduate of
Deakin University. Deakin has now graduated
over 200 000 graduates since we first opened
our doors in 1974.
I am delighted to welcome you as alumni of
Deakin and by doing so, to acknowledge your
talent, commitment and dedication to your
discipline.
During your time at Deakin you have
developed a deep understanding of your
chosen field, as well as the capacity to work
across disciplines and across cultures – depth
as well as breadth of knowledge. The rate and
pace of change today is breathtaking, but as
Deakin graduates I hope you have taken your
opportunities to be well prepared for the
challenges of 21st century life and careers.
Professor Jane den Hollander
Employers tell us that ‘job readiness’ is one
of the things that they value most about
Deakin graduates.
Just as importantly, I am sure you will have
developed lifelong friendships and networks,
which will serve you well in our globally
connected world.
After today, some of you will be joining
the workforce and others will continue on
to postgraduate study. I encourage you to
make the most of your Deakin qualification,
whatever you choose to do.
I believe that each of you in your own unique
way, whether large or small, whether near or
far, will strive to go on to make a difference in
your community.
Enjoy the celebration as it is an important and
memorable milestone in your life. I hope you
look back on your time as a student at Deakin
University as happy and fulfilling.
Deakin is a university that works in close
partnership with industry, government and
the professions to ensure that its teaching
programs and its research are relevant and
responsive to global needs.
Thank you for choosing Deakin. It has been a
privilege to be part of your education and we
look forward to staying connected with you

THE GRADUATION CEREMONY
ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF
TRADITIONAL LAND OWNERS
Deakin University would like to acknowledge
the Wathaurong People of the Kulin
Nation, the traditional custodians of the
land on which this Graduation Ceremony is
taking place. We pay our respects for their
continued care of the land and further
extend that respect to elders past,
present and future.
ORDER OF CEREMONY
Processional music heralds the arrival
of the Academic Procession for the
graduation ceremony.
At the commencement of this music,
graduands and guests are asked to stand and
remain standing for the National Anthem.
The Master of Ceremonies will open
proceedings and the Chancellor will deliver
the opening address. The Vice-Chancellor
will then introduce the guest speaker who
will deliver the occasional address.
6
DEAKIN UNIVERSITY
The Chancellor will then make a formal
declaration conferring the awards of the
University on the graduates, both present and
in absentia, and he will invite graduates to
proceed to the stage according to the order
published in the program.
A Faculty Pro Vice-Chancellor will read out
the names of graduates being presented to
the Chancellor.
At the conclusion of the presentation of the
graduates, a representative of the graduating
students will deliver a brief response.
The Vice-Chancellor (or representative)
will deliver the closing address. Following
the closing address, there will be a musical
performance.
At the conclusion of the ceremony guests are
requested to stand while the stage party and
graduates leave the hall.
Refreshments will then be served in the
marquee in the John Hay Courtyard.
THE UNIVERSITY MACE
Maces were originally medieval weapons carried by bodyguards to kings and sergeants-atarms. Much later, the mace became of ceremonial rather than practical significance and
organisations such as civic corporations and universities adopted the mace as a symbol
of the rule of legal authority.
The University’s mace is displayed at meetings of the University Council and on such
ceremonial occasions as conferring ceremonies. The bearer of the mace, in academic
processions, ‘guards’ the Chancellor. Deakin’s mace was presented to the University by
Mr Donald Thomson, Sir Wilfred Brookes and Mr Norman Stephen (Alcoa Australia).

ACADEMIC DRESS
Academic dress is an important reminder
of the long history of universities in western
civilisation. The three main elements of
academic dress are the gown, the hood and
the head-dress, which were all once articles
of everyday outer dress. Both gowns and
hoods, when in common use, were often
lined and this lining was decorative, as well
as practical. In medieval times, the higher
the rank of the wearer, the more sumptuous
the gown.
In universities there is still a difference in
the apparel of scholars of various ranks
reflecting the origins of the academic dress.
Today’s academic head-dress evolved from
various hats and bonnets of earlier times.
Deakin University’s academic dress, like that
of most Australian universities, derives from
dress worn at the Universities of Oxford
and Cambridge.

THE UNIVERSITY
ALFRED DEAKIN
Deakin University was named in honour of
Alfred Deakin (1856–1919), a remarkable
Australian statesman, leading figure of
the federation movement and three-time
Prime Minister of Australia.
Alfred Deakin was a man of broad vision.
Praised as a political leader, he was an
outstanding orator, accomplished lawyer,
a journalist, poet, an intellectual and an
idealist motivated by a sense of duty to
his country.
The son of English migrants, Alfred Deakin
was born and educated in Melbourne,
studying law at the University of Melbourne.
He embarked upon a career in journalism
with The Age and was a prolific reader of
literature, philosophy, law and science,
earning most of his income as a writer
of social and political commentaries.
In 1879, Alfred Deakin launched his political
career and became a successful Liberal
candidate for the Victorian Parliament.
A believer in democratic social reform, he
became the acknowledged leader of the
Australian Federation movement in Victoria.
He was an active campaigner, a delegate
at the federal conventions, member of
the constitutional drafting committee and
colonial representative in London.
Alfred Deakin was Deputy Prime Minister
and Attorney-General in Australia’s first
government and, in 1903, he became Prime
Minister. His many achievements include the
establishment of the High Court of Australia,
the introduction of labour and social reforms,
the promulgation of new technologies,
such as irrigation and wireless telegraphy,
support for the exploration of Antarctica
and the introduction of financial support for
Australian writers.

FAST FACTS ABOUT DEAKIN
• Deakin was established by the Victorian
Parliament in 1974 as a ‘university in the
Geelong area’. Deakin began teaching on
1 April 1977.
• Deakin University is named after Alfred
Deakin, who is often called Australia’s
Voice of Federation and was Prime
Minister three times between 1903
and 1910.
• Deakin was the first Australian university
to be named after a politician.
• When it was established, Deakin
incorporated two existing Geelong-based
institutions – the Geelong State College
and the Gordon Institute of Technology.
• Deakin initially operated from four sites,
all in Geelong: the Waurn Ponds Campus
it inherited from the Gordon Institute, the
Vines Road Campus of the Geelong State
Teachers College and two smaller locations.
• Deakin had approximately 2500 students in
its first year (1977), rising to 4800 in 1980.
• By 1984, Deakin had consolidated
its operations at the Geelong Waurn
Ponds Campus.
• Deakin’s growth outside Geelong began
in 1990 when it amalgamated with the
Warrnambool Institute of Advanced
Education. This continued in 1991 when
it amalgamated with Victoria College,
which operated from Burwood, Toorak
and Clayton.
• The amalgamations with the Warrnambool
Institute and Victoria College saw Deakin’s
student numbers more than triple in the
five years leading up to 1992.
• In 1993 Deakin was described as the
‘Rolls Royce’ of universities offering
distance education.
16
DEAKIN UNIVERSITY
• Deakin was one of the first Australian
universities to embrace professional and
continuing education to corporate clients,
establishing Deakin Australia (now known
as DeakinPrime) in 1993.
• Deakin’s Institute of Koorie Education
has provided a unique community-based
mode of delivering courses to Indigenous
Australians since its inception in 1991.

of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
students of any Victorian university.
• In the mid-1970s, the disused woolstores
on the waterfront in central Geelong
was one site considered and rejected
for the proposed university that was to
become Deakin. In 1996, this idea came to
fruition with the opening of the Geelong
Waterfront Campus. The campus is the
result of an award-winning reconstruction
of the buildings.
• Enrolments at the Geelong Waterfront
Campus rose by 77 per cent in the five
years leading up to 2008.
• In 2008, the Deakin University School
of Medicine opened, becoming Victoria’s
first rural and regional medical school.
• In 2009, the refurbished Dennys Lascelles
Building was reopened, housing the Deakin
Geelong Health Precinct and the Alfred
Deakin Research Institute.
• In September 2011, Deakin announced the
investment of $5 million over the next five
years to place its Warrnambool Campus in
the international spotlight for marine and
aquaculture research and teaching.

THE CAMPUSES
Deakin is a large university with all the
accompanying resources and infrastructure,
but its campuses are small enough to retain
their own character and sense of community.
Each of our campuses offers a unique
atmosphere – from the inspiring architecture
and bayside appeal of our Geelong Waterfront
Campus, to the cafe culture of our Melbourne
Burwood Campus, the spectacular coastal
location at our Warrnambool Campus or
the mix of activity and open space at our
Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus.

DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Jeffrey John Chamberlain
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Vendor Consultant Experiences
Developing ERP Proposals for SME’s.’
Summary
The research examines vendor-consultant
techniques for developing enterprise
system proposals for small-to-medium
businesses. It combines a strategic
resource-based framework with a business
process management perspective to
analyse this tailoring process. Competing
pressures lead vendor-consultants to
downplay the strategic contribution of
enterprise systems and focus on business
processes.
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Craig Parker
Arezou Pour Mirza
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Trust and Technology in Modern
Inter-Organisational Relationships:
A study in Petrochemical Industry.’
Summary
This research provided fresh insights into
the role of trust and technology in modern
inter-organisational relationships (IORs).
The study highlighted the importance
and contribution of various aspects
of IORs in the petrochemical industry;
however, it emphasised the role of trust
and technology as pivotal to business
success. The study was undertaken in
Iran, where the petrochemical industry
faces a great many sociopolitical and
economic challenges, where the situation
is volatile, and where the lack of trust and
shortage of suitable technology to support
global trade, accentuate the intricate
web of dependencies between those
aspects influencing the development and
maintenance of business-to-business (B2B)
relationships.

DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Azlina Jalil Abdul
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Financial Reporting Behaviour and
Investment Efficiency: Evidence from
Private Family Firms.’
Summary
This thesis examines the effect of
ownership structure on financial reporting
behaviours of private medium-sized
companies in the UK. Results reveal
that although family ownership impacts
positively on earnings quality, family
companies have less incentives to provide
voluntary information. Furthermore, family
ownership is not effective in mitigating
investment efficiency.

Professor Cross was commissioned by the
National Institute of Experimental Art/City of
Sydney to develop ‘Drift’, a large-scale public
art commission for Taylors Square in Sydney
(2011) and his installation ‘Lean’ was included
in The Aberrant Object at Wellington City Art
Gallery (2012). His work ‘Hold’ was selected
for inclusion in Liveworks at Performance
Space, Sydney in 2010 and featured as part
of the Arts House season in the Melbourne
International Festival in October 2012. More
recently he was commissioned by Scape
Public Art 7 curator Blair French to develop
‘Level Playing Field’, a temporary intervention
that fused sport, performance and sculpture
in Christchurch.
PROFESSOR DAVID CROSS
The Occasional Address will be delivered
by Professor David Cross, Professor of
Visual Arts, Deakin University.
David Cross works as an artist, curator
and writer. His practice extends across

Shirley Spiteri
DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Disadvantaged Locations and Transition:
Lived Lives of Students Demonstrating
Resilience.’
Sally Kathleen Jensen
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘The Nature of Imagination in Education
for Sustainability.’
Summary
This research investigated the nature
and role of imagination in Education for
Sustainability. Through participation,
observation and interview, the research
examined the ways in which understanding
sustainability requires imagination. From
a New Materialist standpoint, imagination
is re-conceptualised and re-positioned as
central and constitutive to learning and
knowing.
Principal Supervisor:
Associate Professor Mary Dixon
Lucinda McKnight
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘The Glitterbomb: Designing Curriculum
and Identity with Girls’ Popular Culture.’
Summary
This thesis contributes to the academic
fields of gender and education through an
empirical account of how female teachers
design curriculum around girls’ popular
culture in a contemporary coeducational
setting. The thesis argues for reflexivity
around curriculum, and also for the
re-articulation of curriculum theory with
feminist and poststructuralist perspectives.
Summary
This study answered what biographical
experiences shape the trajectory of
students demonstrating resilience during a
time of transition. It charted the material
conditions of agency and structures. The
findings pointed to supportive social
relationships, community and school
resources and educational policies being
critical to shaping agency.

DOCTORAL DEGREES
Principal Supervisor:
Professor Jillian Blackmore
Benjamin Whitburn
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Critical Engagement with Insider Accounts
of Inclusive Schooling.’
Summary
Engaging critically with insider accounts of
inclusive schooling, the thesis provides an
opportunity to understand the entangled,
multiple, and often contradictory
discourses that comprise day-to-day
experiences of “inclusion” for young people
with impairments. The work forming the
majority of this thesis is a collection of
journal papers.

DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Leaning Towards Collegiality: Narratives of
University Communities of Practice.’
Jo-Anne Claire Langdon
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘The Shadow Maker: A Novel and Exegesis
Exploring Magical Realism, Trauma and
Elegy.’
Summary
Through a creative artefact and critical
exegesis, this thesis explores the
interconnections between trauma
literature, magical realism and elegy.
Drawing on various theoretical fields
including postcolonialism and feminist
theory, the thesis contributes an original
intervention into the field of magical realist
scholarship, arguing for the continuing
significance of the magical realist mode
as a politically engaged and subversive
literature.
Summary
This study explored the relationship
between professional learning,
community, narrative and identity in
strategic communities established to
enhance teaching and learning at three
Australian universities. It adds to the
field by proposing an adaptive model
for understanding and fostering future
communities of practice in higher
education.

‘Theory and Practice in Environmental
Education: A Mexican Case Study.’
Summary

environment. As a result of participating
in this case study, teachers’ changed from

to acting to address environmental
issues, implementing Participatory Action
Research.

Helen Louise Brown
DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Mediators of Change in Children’s
Physical Activity.’
Lisa Amy Barker
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Malnutrition: Significance, Prevalence
and Management of the Hospitalised
Surgery Patient.’
Summary
Malnutrition is prevalent and poorly
diagnosed in hospitalised patients,
with high rates of malnutrition seen
in surgical patients. This study found
that the administration of a specialised
immuno-nutrition supplement is
beneficial for malnourished patients
undergoing gastrointestinal surgery, and a
multidisciplinary team approach improves
nutritional care for patients.
Principal Supervisor:
Associate Professor Tim Crowe
Andrea Bennet
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Explaining the Gender Differences
in Community Attitudes Toward Child
Sexual Abuse.’
Summary
The aim of the thesis was to understand
how gender, empathy and myth
endorsement impacts on jurors’
perceptions of child sexual abuse victims.
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Bianca Klettke
Summary
The thesis has provided a more in-depth
understanding of the causal mechanisms
of behaviour change, specifically through
identification of potential mediators
as well as identification of challenges
implementing effective intervention
strategies targeting these mediators. This
study found that a better understanding
of these mechanisms is likely to enhance
the effectiveness of future physical activity
interventions.
FRIDAY 17 APRIL 12 PM
DOCTORAL DEGREES
Principal Supervisor:
Alfred Deakin Professor Jo Salmon
Isabelle Guller
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘MicroRNA Profiling in Brown Adipose
Tissue and Muscle-Derived CD34+ Cells.’
Summary
The major findings established a mouse
brown adipose tissue (BAT)-enriched
miRNA profile conserved in human BAT
and predicted to target genes potentially
involved in growth and development.
The present results also identified a
human skeletal muscle-derived CD34+
cell population with the capacity to
differentiate into brown adipocytes in vitro.
These CD34+ expressed common miRNAs
to mouse and human BAT. Finally these
findings show an up-regulation of 4 miRNAs
in human adult skeletal muscle following
cold exposure. These miRNAs were also
present in mouse and human BAT as well as
in CD34+ brown adipocytes.
Principal Supervisor:
Professor Aaron Russell
GRADUATION CEREMONIES | APRIL 2015
81
FRIDAY 17 APRIL 12 PM
Ashlee Margaret Hendy
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Functional and Neurological Adaptations
to Transcranial Stimulation during Strength
Training.’
Summary
This thesis found that the application of
non-invasive brain stimulation during
resistance training enhances gains in
muscular strength and activation. The
findings shed light on the contribution
of the nervous system in strength
development, and can be used to improve
rehabilitation techniques for conditions
such as musculoskeletal injury and stroke.
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Dawson Kidgell
Danielle Patricia Hitch
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Dynamic and Diverse Ways of Knowing in
Mental Health Occupational Therapy.’
Summary
This study focused on evidence based
practice for mental health occupational
therapy. It explored the theoretical,
evidentiary and practical ways of knowing
that occupational therapists use to support
consumers.
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Genevieve Pepin
Sisitha Udara Jayasinghe
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Responsiveness to Psychological Stress and
Food Intake: The Influence of Adiposity in
Men and Physical Activity in Women.’
Summary
Hyperactivity of the stress pathways can
cause diseases. This research concludes
that levels of adiposity and physical activity
status does not influence physiological
responsiveness to psychological stress.
82
DEAKIN UNIVERSITY
Nevertheless, stress pathway activity in
response to food intake can be influenced
by increased adiposity but not by increased
levels of physical activity.
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Anne Turner
Shaun Mason
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes with
Antioxidant Vitamin C Therapy.’
Summary
This thesis found that high dose vitamin
C supplementation significantly improved
insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle of
people with type 2 diabetes. This clinically
relevant improvement corresponded with
improvements in vitamin C and oxidative
stress levels in skeletal muscle. Vitamin
C supplementation could be an effective
adjunct therapy in people with type 2
diabetes.
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Glenn Wadley
Matin Ghayour Minaie
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘The Influence of Parenting Style on
Adolescent Substance Use.’
Summary
The aim of this thesis was to establish
whether specific parenting behaviours
were better predictors of adolescent
alcohol and drug use. The results suggest
that in early adolescence specific parenting
behaviours were more direct predictors of
the development of adolescent substance
use than the more complex parenting style
categories.
Principal Supervisor:
Professor John Toumbourou
Adriana Danielle Ventura
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Unmet Needs of Palliative Home Care
Patients and Carers.’
Summary
This thesis focused on the unmet needs
of patients, carers and nursing staff from
a private palliative home care service
in Victoria. Study results showed that
participants were reluctant to disclose
their unmet needs, despite having clearly
identifiable problems in physical and
psychosocial domains.

Kylie Ball joined Deakin University in 1999 as
a Postdoctoral Fellow in the School of Health
Sciences. She is currently a Personal Chair in
the School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences,
Faculty of Health.
Professor Ball has been awarded four
prestigious research fellowships from the
National Heart Foundation and the National
Health and Medical Research Council
(NHMRC), including her current Principal
Research Fellowship, which is one of the most
senior fellowships awarded by the NHMRC.
Professor Ball has been a recipient of the
Vice-Chancellor’s Award for Outstanding
Contributions to Research as an Early Career
Researcher, and was the 2010 Deakin

Professor Ball’s research is concerned with
socioeconomic inequalities in health, with
a focus on nutrition, physical activity and
obesity. She has published extensively,
with 200 journal papers, 10 book chapters,
and one edited book. Professor Ball was
an important contributor to Deakin’s
Excellence in Research in Australia ratings
and has attracted over $11.5 million in
external research funding to Deakin, as
well as $10.1 million which she has been
awarded with collaborators at other
institutions. Professor Ball previously won
Deakin’s only NHMRC Strategic Award and
an NHMRC Capacity Building grant, which
she co-led. Professor Ball is nationally and
internationally recognised as one of the
leading researchers in her field. Her research
on obesity prevention has been influential
in shaping national policy and she has been
invited to serve on numerous expert advisory
groups for government and non-government
agencies. In 2013 she was the recipient of
the Victorian Health Promotion Award for
promoting healthy eating for her research
conducted in partnership with the National
Heart Foundation and Coles supermarkets.
In addition to her own program of research,
Professor Ball has played a lead role in
the establishment and growth of Deakin’s
Centre for Physical Activity and Nutrition
Research (CPAN). Professor Ball also mentors
developing PhD students and early career
academic staff across CPAN, the School of
Exercise and Nutrition Sciences and elsewhere
in the Faculty of Health. Most recently she has
established the Mothers in Academia group,
a peer support network for early and midcareer female staff in the School. Professor
Ball is not only a leading researcher, she is an
outstanding research leader who has made a
sustained contribution to CPAN and Deakin’s
research success.

Who’s thesis was entitled:
‘Victorian Nurses’ and Men’s Perceptions
of the Primary Care Nurse Role.’
Summary
This study adds significantly to the current
paucity of knowledge around men’s

Julia Nicole Morphet
DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Transition to Specialty Practice Programs in
Australian Emergency Nursing.’
Sonja Rickie Cleary
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Nurse Whistleblowers in Australian
Hospitals: A Critical Case Study.’
Summary
Between 2002 and 2005, two high-profile
Australian cases of nurse whistleblowing
received widespread media attention.
Little is known about the processes that
influence nurse whistleblowing. This
study investigated the nurse actions and
highlighted the need to take seriously
matters reported that pose a threat to
patient safety and quality care.
Principal Supervisor:
Professor Megan-Jane Johnstone
Summary
Transition to Specialty Practice Programs
(TSPPs) provide structured support
and education to novice nurses. This
study examined the prevalence, design,
characteristics and functions of emergency
nursing TSPPs in Australia, and found that
TSPPs served an important function in
recruitment, preparation and retention of
emergency nurses. A framework for future
emergency nursing TSPPs was developed
based on study findings.

Jintana Damkliang
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Use of an Evidence-Based Care Bundle by
Thai Emergency Nurses.’
Summary
Implementation of a care bundle for
nursing management of patients with
severe traumatic brain injury was feasible
in the Thai context. Use of an evidencebased care bundle increased emergency
nurses’ knowledge regarding severe TBI
management and improved the care
delivered during the initial emergency
nursing management of these patients.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Excessive Gestational Weight Gain:
A Psychosocial and Behaviour Change
Approach.’
Summary
Research findings indicate that gaining
excess weight during pregnancy can be
influenced by depressive symptoms,
body image, confidence and motivation.
Prevention of excessive pregnancy
weight gain needs to be addressed by
identifying women at risk and incorporating
psychological and behaviour change
intervention into broader health system
and prevention programs.
Summary
This PhD explores the connection
Aboriginal Victorian people have to their
traditional lands (known as Country) and its
relationship with health. Findings identify
the deep connection Aboriginal Victorian
people have to their Country and the
need for public health clinicians to engage
with diverse Indigenous practices and
knowledge when applicable.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Recombinant Influenza Viruses as HIV
Vaccine Vector.’
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Attributions of Responsibility for Motor
Vehicle Accidents and Post-Injury
Outcomes.’
Summary
Live recombinant influenza viruses were
successfully used as HIV vaccine vectors in
a mouse model. Following intranasal primeboost vaccination, HIV-specific CD8+ T cell
responses were detected in the spleen,
broncho-alveolar lavage, mediastinal and
inguinal lymph nodes. HIV+a4B7+ CD8+ T
cells contributed to protection in pseudochallenge experiments using recombinant
vaccinia virus expressing HIV antigens.
This research highlights the importance of
mucosal CD8+ T cells in viral immunity and
emphasizes the need for additional studies
to provide key insights to underpin future
vaccine development.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Molecular Insights And Oligonucleotide
Based Targeted Gene Therapy Against
Cancer.’
Summary
This thesis helped to unravel the function
of T lymphoma invasion and metastasis
protein (TIAM1) and nucleolin, a nucleolar
protein in retinoblastoma tumorigenesis.
Aptamer based targeted imaging; drug
and gene delivery to retinoblastoma and
epithelial cancer cells was attained. This
research work finally opened up avenue for
cancer stem cell targeting using aptamers,
imaging of cancer cells using novel bioorthogonal agent and use of aptamer
for blocking the miRNA-17-92 cluster
maturation.

Summary
This thesis explored the relationship
between attributions of responsibility for
motor vehicle accidents and post-injury
outcomes among a large sample of TAC
clients. Results demonstrated that, despite
similar levels of physical injury, people who
attribute responsibility for accidents to
other persons or circumstances experience
poorer physical and mental health recovery
in comparison to those who attribute
responsibility to themselves.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Cancer Cachexia: A Molecular Nutrition
Approach to Cancer-Related Muscle Loss.’
Summary
The project identified changes in molecular
markers of antioxidant status and muscle
atrophy during cancer-associated weightloss, and confirmed omega-3 EPA as an
effective treatment for muscle-loss in
experimental cancer cachexia. The project
also identified the PG-SGA nutrition tool as
a powerful predictor of patient outcomes
and survival in clinical cachexia.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘An Aptamer-Mediated siRNA Delivery
System Targeting Breast Tumorigenic Cells.’
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Obesity, Dietary Choices, and Sociocultural
Influences Among Fijian Adolescents.’
Summary
In this study, through developing a RNA
interference based gene-knockdown
system, the expression of Survivin - a
critical gene involved in breast cancer
initiation and relapse was silenced. This
approach reversed chemo-resistance,
transforming Doxorubicin - a classical
chemotherapy drug to one able to act on
drug-resistant breast cancer stem cells.
Summary
Obesity contributes to early deaths from
non-communicable diseases in all Pacific
Islands populations. Fiji is no exception; the
prevalence of overweight and obesity has
tripled since 1993 in both ethnic groups
to different extents. This thesis provides
better understanding of dietary patterns
and relationships with body weight in
adolescents, and their sociocultural
influences, in order to identify effective
and appropriate messages and messengers
to motivate adolescents to improve their
diets.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Returning to Co-residence: The
Experiences of Young Adults and Parents.’
Summary
This thesis focused on family members’
experiences when a young adult returns
home. Findings revealed that both
young adults and parents come to
accept the change in living arrangement,
accommodate each other in the parental
home and also appreciate how doing so
enables them to advance in various life
domains.

‘Innate Immunity in the Mammary Gland
and the Role of the Milk Peptidome.’
Summary
This research investigated how the
mammary gland responds to disease states
such as mastitis and how the milk plays
a protective role. An in vitro mammary
model was developed and shown to
replicate the same responses to the breast
when challenged with bacterial proteins
demonstrating the usefulness of this model
for future investigation of therapeutic
interventions.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Social Support from an Attachment
Functions Perspective.’
Summary
This thesis examined attachment style
differences in the provision and receipt
of safe-haven and secure-base support
in times of stress, and the functional
outcomes of these types of support.
Different patterns of social support
provision and receipt were observed
among anxious vs. avoidantly attached
individuals.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘The Association Between Body Image and
Psychological Well-Being in Adult Women.’
Summary
The findings of this thesis highlighted
the role of functional aspects of body
image (i.e. self-rated health and fitness) in
positively shaping the well-being of young
and middle-aged women. A novel finding
was the strong association found between
womens’ body image and how well they
believed they managed their life situations.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘The Subjective Wellbeing of Paralympic
Athletes.’
Summary
Paralympic athletes represent a very high
functioning group within the population.
They not only report high levels of SWB but
also have robust psychological resources
that support adaptation to environmental
challenges and athletic success. This would
suggest that important lessons in resilience
could be learned from this high profile
group.
Principal Supervisor:

Felicity Anna Georgina Holmes
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘The Role of Masculine Norm Conformity
in Men’s and Women’s Relational
Satisfaction.’
Summary
This thesis highlighted that men’s
conformity to aspects of masculinity
manifest in their use of communication
and conflict resolution strategies, which
in turn contribute to men and their
female partners’ relational satisfaction.
These findings improve knowledge
regarding the role of socialised gender
norms in relationships and emphasise the
importance of adopting a gender-informed
approach to treatment practices.

‘Understanding the Link Between Body
Dissatisfaction and Binge Eating: A Model
Comparison Approach.’
Summary
This thesis explored the association
between body dissatisfaction and binge
eating by comparing competing theoretical
models using a novel, experience sampling
method. Participants self-reported
their current body dissatisfaction,
mood experiences and disordered
eating practices over the course of a
week. Negative mood, but not dietary
restraint, significantly mediated the body
dissatisfaction binge eating relationship.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘An Investigation of the Developmental
Assumptions Underlying Age-based Legal
Criteria in the Children’s Court.’
Summary
This thesis investigated developmental
trends in the psychological abilities
presumed to underpin the doli incapax
presumption in Victoria, Australia. Findings
from this study questioned the utility of
the doli incapax presumption as it currently
stands and highlighted the need for a
purpose-built interview protocol when
assessing young people’s culpability.

Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Exploring the Role of Context in Young
Adults’ Drinking Motives.’
Summary
Drinking motives are a good way to
understand risky drinking in young
people. Past research considers drinking
motives to be stable aspects of a person’s
personality, however the current research
demonstrated across three unique studies,
that motives are quite context specific. This
new development greatly improves the way
we model risk.

Summary
In Australia 17% of infants are exclusively
breastfed to six months postpartum. This
thesis examined the effect of psychosocial
factors on women’s ability to maintain
exclusive breastfeeding. The thesis
demonstrated the paucity of research
in this area and the importance of
psychosocial factors such as breastfeeding
self-efficacy and psychological adjustment
in women’s exclusive breastfeeding
outcomes.

Summary
Sedentary behaviour is an independent
health risk factor, and is ubiquitous in
the desk-based workplace. Two studies
were designed to understand sitting and
sitting-breaks in this context. A reliable
and valid self-report measure of sitting and
sitting-breaks was developed, and various
ecological factors predicted variance in
sitting and sitting-breaks.

DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Studies of Firm Efficiency on Stock
Returns.’
Gillian Louise Nieman
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Aboriginal People and Local Government:
A Shepparton Story.’
Summary
Sequential governments have created
policies to deal with the “Aboriginal
problem”. None of these have been
particularly successful. This thesis argued
that the absence of effective dialogue
has been the cause of most failures.
Furthermore, future policies will also
fail unless a dialogic approach of deep
listening, respect and love is adopted.
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Phil Connors
Cuc Thi Nguyen
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Impact of Community Context and
Individual Factors on Entrepreneurial
Propensity and Behaviours of Rural Females
in a Transitional Economy: Evidence from
Vietnam.’
Summary
This study proposes a novel model of
female entrepreneurship in rural areas of
transitional countries. This model indicates
indirect influences of various community
contextual factors and highlights six
individual qualities that largely determine
the entrepreneurial propensity and
behaviours of the females.
Principal Supervisor:
Associate Professor David Bednall
Summary
The thesis provides strong evidence for
a negative relationship between firm
efficiency and average stock returns in the
Australian market. Moreover, the findings
indicate that the return anomalies are more
likely due to mispricing in which arbitrage
costs play an important role in explaining
the efficiency effect.

Principal Supervisor:
Associate Professor Victor Fang
Selinaswati
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Women in Politics in Matrilineal Society
(a case study of West Sumatra, Indonesia).’
Summary
The study found that the West Sumatran
matrilineal system offered limited support
to female politicians who still experienced
disadvantages in the national system. It
concludes that there is a need to include
aspects of local culture into regional
electoral policy and for women to develop
better political credential.
Principal Supervisor:
Associate Professor Ismet Fanany
Andrew Cameron Sims
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘The Very Idea of Psychodynamic
Neuroscience.’
Summary
In some mental illnesses the behaviour
to be understood suggests explanation
in terms of motivational states that hold
of the patient. This study demonstrated
that there are no reasonable grounds to

prohibit this style of explanation and that it
has a potential place within contemporary
psychological frameworks.

Paulette Jane Wallace
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Approaching Cultural Landscapes in PostSettler Societies: Ideas, Policies, Practices.’
Summary
This thesis contends that the concept
of cultural landscape is a useful tool
for dismantling heritage management
programs that promote demarcations
between natural/settler/indigenous
heritage values in protected areas in New
Zealand, Australia, Canada and the United
States.
Principal Supervisor:
Professor Andrea Witcomb
Yuwei Zhou
Whose thesis was entitled:
‘Stock Returns and Inflation Revisited:
Australian Evidences.’
Summary
Results of this thesis suggest that a
significant negative relation between
stock returns and inflation identified
in Australia during ‘inflation targeting’
is mainly due to an incidence of ‘flight
to safety’. Furthermore, the impact of
inflation news on stock returns is industrysector dependent. Specifically, in Australia
rising inflation seems to be good news for
Financials, but bad news for Materials.

Grady Clare Hancock
DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Re-Visioning Australian Social Realism
through a Feminine Lens.’
Kim Jaime Barbour
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Finding the Edge: Online Persona Creation
in Fringe Art Forms.’
Summary
This study investigates the experience
of persona creation by eight artists
working in fringe art forms. The research
demonstrates that for these artists, the
online persona can operate in three
registers of performance – professional,
personal, and intimate – and in creating
their personas, participants draw on
socio-cultural discourses of artistness.
Principal Supervisor:
Professor David Marshall
Trent Evan Griffiths
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Documentary Tensions and the Filmmaker
in the Frame.’
Summary
This thesis identifies a distinct category
of documentary in which the filmmaker is
shown negotiating their authorship and
performing their authority. Close analysis of
three films investigates conceptual tensions
that arise when a filmmaker is framed as
both a specific subject and a documentary
author.
Summary
This research explores the unique ways
in which female film practitioners in
Australia are utilising social realist politics
in examining the stories of women in
marginalised spaces. The findings add to
the much needed gravitas of the female
voice in contemporary Australian film.

DOCTORAL DEGREES
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Leon Marvell
Leslie James Hartley
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘When Fathers Murder Sons:
Male Melancholy in Dostoyevsky,
Mailer and Murakami.’
Summary
This thesis identifies what is unique about
male melancholia as represented in literary
texts from the nineteenth century to the
present. It argues that male melancholia
is written into western civilisation and
sustained as a necessity for social order and
that it involves male violence towards its
male offspring by the father.

John Francis McCormick
Roberta Shaw
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Responding to Human Full-Body Gestures
Embedded in Motion Data Streams.’
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Looking and Aesthetics: Beyond Literary
Representations of Voyeurism.’
Summary
This research created a neural-network
enabled artificially intelligent performing
agent that was able to learn to dance
and recognise movement through a
rehearsal and performance process with
a human dancer. The agent exhibited
emergent dance behaviour and successfully
engaged in a live, semi-improvised dance
performance with the human dancer.
Summary
This thesis examines looking in literary and
filmic representations to discover its aims
and capacities beyond the conventional
interpretations of the act as voyeurism.
Principal Supervisor:
Professor Kim Vincs
Lovie Edwin Seru
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘The Communication of Diabetes’
Health Campaign Information in
Remote Botswana.’
Summary
This study has uncovered that to improve
diabetes campaigns, and possibly the
campaigns of other diseases in lowresourced communities of developing
sub-Saharan countries like Botswana,
the interpersonal, homophilous, power
relations, entertainment, traditional
healing systems, religious institutions and
empowerment forms of communication
need to be integrated into the campaign
communication processes.

Principal Supervisor:
Associate Professor Katya Johanson
Ilona Louise Urquhart
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Diabolical Literature: Questioning the
Morality of Modernism.’
Summary
This thesis explores the significance of
representations of the devil in key works
of modernist literature. It demonstrates
that certain writers engaged with the idea
that literature was devilish, attesting to the
modernists’ self-conscious preoccupation
with the morality of literature.
Principal Supervisor:
Dr Geoff Boucher

MASTER OF ARTS BY RESEARCH
Kella Rose Robinson
Whose Thesis was entitled:
‘Alice: Walking in Her Footsteps.’
Summary
The thesis employs memoir writing
and exegesis to examine the impact of
government policies on Aboriginal Families
in Australia in the 20th Century.
