Infant Mortality And Race In The United States, Katherine Legier

Perspectives

Infant mortality is globally recognized as an indicator for overall health in a population. The United States spends the most money per capita on health expenditures, a total of 17.1% of the budget in 2016 (cia.gov). Despite this, the United States’ ranking for infant mortality is 174th (cia.gov). Moreover, rates of infant mortality are not experienced equally across racial groups. The rate of infant mortality for African Americans in the United States is compounded. African American infants are more than 2 times as likely to die before their first birthday than non-Hispanic white infants (West and Bartkowski 2019:1). The purpose …

The Impact Of Hyper-Connection Through Smartphone Usage On Friendship Satisfaction In College Students, Sarah Bell

Perspectives

This literature review explores smartphone use among college students. It examines how this usage creates hyper-connection, which is the state of being available for communication anywhere and at any time. I will examine the effects of hyper-connection on the well-being of college students. Hyper-connection is operationalized through the lens of constant availability, fear of missing out, friendship satisfaction, and face-to-face interactions. Furthermore, I will discuss the cyclical nature of the relationships between these variables. The conclusion outlines the limitations of current research and possibilities for future research in this area.

The “American Dream” In Black And White Populations: A Perceptions Versus Reality Analysis, Emma Watts

Perspectives

Do White and Black Americans equally believe in the American Dream? Does the American Dream offer hope for Black Americans to hold on to, or has racial oppression made the dream feel out of reach? Since such ideas, like the promise of social mobility offered by freedom, motivate and inform economic, social, and political beliefs, understanding how such narratives function is of critical need. In this study, I used the 2012 Outlook on Life Survey (N=2,294) to analyze the differences in attitudes about the American Dream between Black and White populations in the United States. I analyzed data about how …

Scaling Equitable Solar Finance, Eric Hangen, Rebecca Regan, Sarah Boege

Carsey Publications

The U.S. solar photovoltaics industry has taken off over the past decade, but without deliberate action low- and moderate-income communities could be left behind in the transition to clean energy.

Drawing on substantial literature related to multiple dimensions of low-income solar finance and interviews with key informants in the field, authors Eric Hangen, Rebecca Regan, and Sarah Boege recommend public investments and policy changes that could help scale the provision of equitable solar finance.

Covid-19: A Syndemic Requiring An Integrated Approach For Marginalized Populations, Rosemary M. Caron, Amanda Rodrigues Amorim Adegboye

Faculty Publications

The novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, has challenged healthcare systems globally. The health inequities experienced by immigrants, refugees, and racial/ethnic minorities have been aggravated during the COVID-19 pandemic. The socioeconomic, political, and demographic profile of these vulnerable populations places them at increased risk of contracting COVID-19 and experiencing significant morbidity and mortality. Thus, the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic is disproportionally higher among these at-risk groups. The purpose of this perspective is to: (1) highlight the interactions among the social determinants of health (SDoH) and their bi-directional relationship with the COVID-19 pandemic which results in the current …
